Lewis, city health officer, presented his annual report before the common council on Monday evening, concluding it with a number of recom- mendations. They were the following: 1, That the culvert in Comstock pond be complet- ed; 2, Turner pond acquired and cul- vert constructed through the same; 3, Rose place dock completed; 4, remain- der of Yantic street sewer be rebuilt, 907 feet; 5, Sturtevant street sewer should be relaid; 6, $500 should be ap- propriated towards sewer at Fanning's pond; 7, large sewer should be laid through Garfield avenue and Laurel Hill avenue; 8, Sherman street near Canada bridge should be sewered; 9, the outlet of Market street sewer should be changed; 10, Wasmngton street granolithic pavement should be cleaned every week. He recommends an appropriation of $1,500 for next year, the same as last year, as every year brinsg additional work and added expense to the depart- ment. In regard to the Garfield avenue sewer he says that a large one should | e laid there beginning at a point near Cottage avenue in Garfleld avenue and extending down Garfleld avenue and Laurel Hill avenue to the culvert near Norman chapel. Before this sewer is constructed it is necessary for Garfield avenue, which is a private street, to be accepted as a pubiic stredt. The brook now crossing the Cranska lot should be drained into this sewer near Cottage avenue. This will abate the 'HEALTH OFFICER RECOMMENDS Dr. N. B.

Sewers in North Baltic, Pratt, North and Hickory streets should follow the .acquiring of Turner's pond and the ex- tending of the Comstock pond culvert, he says. The outlet of the Market street sewer at the city dock should be changed and the sewer cairied across the dock to tidewater. Downed Flies and Mosquitoes.

SYSTEMATIC SEARCH BEGUN FOR MISS ATCHISON. Missing Women's Brother Takes Up Task of Finding Her. Up till late Monday night no trace of the whereabouts of Miss Flora E.|[ Atchison, who mysteriously disappear- | d from her home in Baltlc over a week | @go had been found, although word of her disappearance has heen sent out to the various towns in this locality. On Monday Dr. F. C. Atchison of ‘this city, brother of the missing wo- man, inaugurated a systematic search for her. Dr. Atchison requests all newspaper correspondents, school teachers, pastors and others to be on the watch for any persons resembling his siter and alse requests the pastors to make announcements re garding her disappearance. Miss Atchison is good looking, has jet black hair, blac keyes and weighs about 150 pounds. Her teeth are good and in manner she was nothing out of the ordinary. Her speoch was naturally rapid. At the time she left her home she wore a black and gray wrapper with polka dots printed in the cloth. Atchison resided In Baitic with her sister Miss Bertha Atchison and Mrs. Willlam Ladd. According to Dr. Atchison she had no particular recre- ation except her Sunday school class which she regularly taught. She ad sufficlent money in the bank to keep ker home wich se owned and which is known as the Andrew Jackson Ladd place, In good repalr, and was able to live in comfort. Her surroundings were pleasant but for some time her bealth had been impaird. Sh was troubld with hysteria and on Saturday before she left her ome had returned from a six weks’ stay in a sanatorium. On Wadnesday morning, March 25, while combing her hair she became nervous and threw the brus hacross t room to give vent to her feelings. Shortly afterwards she put on a black shawl and a new pair of rubbers and told the others that she was going out. She was seen passing the barway into the olts at the rear of the house, but since that time ncthing more has been heard from her. After a half hours absence as she had not returned a searc hwas begun and by 1 o’clock ov a dozen men were engaged in scouring the woods in the nearby locality but without result. The search has been kept up since that time but no clue has been found. As it was thought she may have thrown herself in the river dynamite was exploded in the Shetucket in hopes that the body would be brought to the surface. - At the time she left her home there was ice on the river and as no holes could b found and as the river is in plain 8ight of the village it is thougnt that she is not in the river but is beinz harbored by someone. Last week a woman answerirg the description was seen in Montwiile; but Dr. Atehison has small hopes t!at she was his sister. On Sunday a party of searchers went to Hanover from Baltic; but to no avail Dr. Atchison attributes the actions of his sister to hysteria. She was alone a good part of the time which would tend to bring on nervousness in her case. As yet nothing has been heard from i ITALIAN POTRAITURE Miss Edith Abbott, Speaks Before Art Students’ sociation. Former Member, As- talk upon Some Phases of Itallan Portraiture was given at Slater hall on Monday ev- ening by Miss Edith Abbott of Welles ley. Mass., under the auspices of the Art Students' association. In the absence of the Association president, iss Alice W. Cogswell introduced the speaker. Miss Abbott, she sald, was one of the charter members of the assocla- tion and needed no introduction to those who rememW¥ered the happy days in the art school at that time.| At present she is associate profcssor of art at Wellesley colege. Miss Ab- bott congratulated the assoclation up- on the work they are doing and com- pared them with the Copley society of Boston, which they resembled on a| smalier scale of opportunity. In introducing her subject, she suid | that we usually think of the art of| the 14th and 15th centurles as being | wholly._ religious. But other subjects were also used in the 15th century and artists began to be interested in con- temporary history and in portraiture This period shows the gradual em- phesis of the secular spirit, These conflicting ideals of the renaissance! came together in the subjects ordered | by religious patrons and the artists| own interest in the life of their day.| They were striving for the self con-| scious freedom of the individual. The first pictures shown were ex- amples of medieval art—13th century paintings—which emphasized the; aloofness and lack of personality. The | next onme was from Fra Filippi Lip- pi. 150 years later, and showed a trend toward individualism and the! secular spirit. This reached its cul-| mination in Venice. An example shown | was the picture celebrating a great naval victory where Christ is con- scious of the worship of the adoring| admirals. The formal syymnetry of the early works gives way to a looser form of composition and a division in- to groups. The first portraits were merely a veracious study of exterior form. They showed any peculfar or individ- ual characteristi They were made in profile against a background of sky and showed only the head and shoulders, which gave them a solemn A delighttul Comprising the most introducing the very Eelgance and good every line.

Pemqino’s masterpiece indeed shows a poetic quality, finely model- spuns. ed, delicately and sympathetically studied, but still in low relief. The Mona ldsa shows a great stride toward the psychological. Here we find for the first time a glimpse of the inner springs of life, There is both a technical change and a change of attitude. The hands are made a mode of expression and movement is brought in se that the pulsating Iife is felt. Leonardo, too. was the first to use light and shade for usbtile modeling. Another phase introduced by Ti- tian was the expression of mood. This portrayal of mood and temper- ment brings one into companionship with the picture, as in The Concert.
