DR, PARC 5 Later the d E revorter valied upon Dr. Parcell, and asked him for an explanation of his side of the Dinsmore-Parcell case. The doctor Resitated somewhat, but a hittle pressure induced him to talk frecly. “In the first place,” he said, went into Dr. Dinsmore’s busi- ness with lim_ at his request. 1 always liked him and I guess he always trusted me. At any rate, he nearly always called me in consultation, before we went into partnership, when he had any diflicult cases on hand. In fact, he ys said was a first-class homeo We went into business with the understanding that we hare profits alike. From the first hour here was trouble. He would talk about me behind my back and say all sorts of hard things about me. Wiy, one day [ otone of the young ladies to show me low to work the gulvanic battery. When the doctor heard of it he was perfectly wild with rage and cursed me outrage- ously, asking me why I had not come to him to make inquiries about the battery nstead of to the girl. Now what do yoni think of that? It was the same way ‘about other trivial matters. Lately I got to smelling the taint of liquor on his | all about the man | lots of cheek to deny Why nigge | Wooldridge ut that time had breath, and I determined to draw out of she business, so I notified him to that effect on July 6, saying that I would go outof the business three months from Oc- tober 4. Why,” he continued, growing confidential, “Dr. Dinsmore has been qolng about sayi that I am a man of dull “perception? What d'ye think of that? Why, young man, I tell you, I don’t believe” there is & man in this city who is any quicker of perception than T am. That may sound egotistical, but I don’t believe there is. No, sir. Perhaps there is such a man, butIdon’t think it.” “Dr. Dinsmore aceuses you of giving your patients the wrong medicines, or plain water, so that you may keep them 3ick longer for the purpose of extorting money.” “1t's an outrageons lie, truth to it. I use water in mixing medi- cines. So does every physician.” “What about your siging?” “About my singing? You mean in the yrcsrlmo of Dr. Dinsmore and his wife? Well, young man, I'll tell you. Things got to going from bad to worse in the anitarium, and I thought I would chirp Ellmu to counteract this tendency. Why, Not a word of r.

Ina way there was something mysteriously blue about the nlmothe that would” affect us all. So I would sing once ina while to prevent this, you see. Of course L would quit as soon as patients would ©come in. 1 only chirped a little to coun- teract Dr. Dinsmore’s depressing ten- dency, you might say.” STILL (LOVES HER HUSBAND, A Wife Who Refuscs to Bow Before Public Sentiment. called upon Mr. J. T, Paul- sen yesterday to learn his side of the Wooldridge bigamy cise. But he persistontly refused to talk. I hayen't got anpthing to say,” he de- elared. 1 have got too mucli on my mind anyway."” “The the public is interested in know- l“nfl what you think about the thing, Is ooldridge—"" “You're a revorter and I don't want to talk to you. Go away. Tulk to that hitehing post.”” Mr. Paulsen’s eldest son was met shortly atterwards 1 the Rock Springs dairy " wagon, and vroved to be more uncious, “Wooldridge has left the country,” he said, “and I don't know where he is He certainly isn't at the dairvy. I baven't seen anything of him since he left the daivy Thursday morning he didn't come honie Thursday night and [ guess he's skipped out.

No, he won't be in the dairy business with us any more. If he roturns, we'll settle up with him and let him go. 7] PUBLIC OPINION yotes it verf' strange that Mr. Paulsen, the father, does not take active stops to push the prosecution of Wooldridge.

Kopp and I, Krafit ealled at the Bee oflice last night in regard to to the trouble between Mr. Bullard and Ofiic and MeBride. They ave entire partiecs and are only interested in the case by having been appointed by the Knmizhts ot Labor to in- vestigate it thoroughly, which th did and upon that investigation were or- dered to bring charges against the o fli- cevs before the council. In the first place these gentlemen want it distinetly under- stood that socialism has nothing what- ever to do with a single point in the case, and any « on to the contrary by the ofticers or their friends is Ise. M Kopp, who is of the firm ot Kopp, Drei- bus & Co., manufacturerers of candies, belongs to the same assembly of Knights of Labor as Bullard, the mjured man. He states that farther than this he does not know Bullard and previous to day last he did not know him by The facts in the as far a8 he (Kopp) 18 concerned le says are these: Saturday Bullard sent for him and be went to” his house and a request was made to bring the matter before he assembly Knights of Labor. Th Kopp did and he and Mr. Krafit were appomted a committee to inve e the matter and report thereon, they did as thoroughly as possible. ng and ex- amining Bullard his wife and all those having any ywledge of the trouble with the policemen. On the committee’s report they were ordered to prefer charges against the oflicers before the council, which instructions they fol- Jlowed. Further than this both gentle- men say they had and have nothing to do with the Mr. Kraflt s , however, tha ould have been vest gated by the embly K. of L. to which Ballard belonged, whether Mr. Kopp had been called upon by the injured man or not. Both gentlemen report that Bul- lard 1s in a critical condition. They also state that as far as they are able to learn from eye witnesses, that Bullard when vlaced ~ under arrest on the mght of the affray was willing to go with McBride, but wanted to get Lis coat. As he went around the corner of his house to get it M de seized him, struck him on the head with wgged him along the ground, him, and even stood over with _a revolver, threatening to shoot. When the patrol wagon arrived Dr, Stout, who wus present, protested agaipst Ballard being t: the station, as his condition was critical, and on the doctor’s protest the injured man was allowed to remain at home. i 1 cases of this kind, there are two f;iwn both.

The carpets have beenjandjtaken off the :ra house floors, stairs, out of the boxes and sent to the carpet-beating establish- ment where they will drop tons of dust. The lobby looks deserted and a number of strange faces of workmen are visible around the familiar precincts. The stage has been turned into a carpenter shop aud Stage Carpenter Booth and Al Kos- ter, the property man, with a aumber of other hands are engaged in making framos for new scenes and other devices to be used the coming season. The “painter’s bridge” which has been idle 8o long is now occupicd by the artist, Graham, of the firm of Graham & Davis of Kansas City. This gentleman arrived yesterday, and already has made con- iderable progress in' the painting for sh he came. He will be engaged here about six weeks when the opera house will reopen with a fresh and new supply of I)n-uuli}ul scenery. This policy nz T plemshing the scenery every year oyd’s is one which is commended b actors who come he the more espec- ially because it is carried out here more fully than in any other house on the Mis- souri river. It 15 also appreciated by the people and lends a new interesttoalmost, every production. Mr, Graham will, this year, paint more new and re-touch more old seenes than he has ever done on any of his earlier visits, Among this year’s work will be eight street wings, of both ancient and mod- orn styles. These will be cut in profile, and act as business places, publio build: ings and private residences. The stage at tho Boyd hus never had street wings be- fore, it being found necessary to supply their places with the wood ~wings.

The at was quite large and many of ns composing it were ladies, ren were present charge of present guardians, and evoked much admi by their prett faces. The judge referred to the dedth of the mother, which took place in lowa three years ago, also the indigent cireum stances in which the husband was at the time, he being unable to pay the expenses of his wife's illness without mortgaging the houseold goods, He then spoke about the mother's dying request, to the cffect that her children should be eared for by their grand varents and aunt. He then velated how the last-mentioned par- ties had complied with the request, and with no_objection on the part of the father Lately, however, the latter had, for some r n, unknown, sought to get possession of his childr notwithstand- ing that the laftter were well cared for and loved by their present guardians. He then refe 1 to the law of the case, the principle of which in the early law 3 the right of the parents to have the ntenance of their offspring. Such alaw be held was the Iaw n} nature, su- perior to any human enactment, but he thought that of paramount importance, and in thisinstance such was the ease was the welfare of the children which ought to be considered. The little ones were now housed and at home with reia- tives who admired and loved them, cared for them, tended them in illness and prided in'their goodness and beauty. If they were to be taken away trom their present gnardians they would be taken by the father, who, since his wife's death, hiad not made for himself & home where he could be the master. To ut them up in sucha place would deprive relatives of the right to visit them only by the sufterance of the woman who owned the boarding. They would thus be largely deprived of the care of the father and entircly of the loying interest of blood relations. Such, he thought, would not conduce to the prospective advan- tage of the children mnfi the decision was to allow the children to remain with their grandparents and aunt.

The latter route is somewhat the shortest, and the sailing vessels which are engaged 1 the contest arc of the fleetest description. At the same time the fact that fast ralroad time is made in crossing the American continent will, it is thought, give the overland route the advantage. The fast stewmship, Hyder- bad, carries the tea from Japan to San raneisco. The contest is an interesting one, and its outcome will be a with_a good of interest by Am and European importers J.d.

The Tools He Works With and the Effects He Produces, New York Evéning Posc: On the top floor of a high brick building, whicl fronts one of the largest squarcs city, is the studio of an ctche ame on an _artist’s proof is a su antee that the subject is worthy a plac in any salon. There1s something char- acteristic in the home of every something which enables even'a observer (0 classify its occupant at once. So the first glance at the room in ques tion leaves no doubt in the mind of 4 vis. itor that 1t is inhabited by a man devoted to art, The hard-wood floor is cove with rugs; the walls are lined with un framed pictures and plaster of paris models; the panels of the doors and the rger pieces of furniture are decoratod to cori :w|mnll“uul| in the ceutre of all stands the easel. Itis to be observed, however, that the easel does not occupy the priucipal place in the room, ludeed, it miy bg gaid that this alone constitutes the chief difference, in_the gene appearanee, between a painter's and an_etcher's tudio. The painter executes his work on a piece of can stretehed over a frame and placed on an ¢ Ihe etcher does his work | on a heavy copper plate, placed flat on the top of a table. Near at hand are a set of sharp-pointed steel tools, otching ground, spirit amp, a twisted lamp of wall-wax, " burnisher and roller On a certam rainy night the writer was seated in a comfortable chair in this | studio.

In the first ace, the copper plate is thoroughly washed with turpen tine, or better. with benzine, for the former is a little too thin. This is to r« movs any grease. The plate is then heated, commonly by burning under it heavy etching paper, or, if the plate 1s a large one, by w spirit lamp. It is heated to such a temperature that water will roll off in globules. When the plate is sufli- cientlp heated a preparation known ‘etching ground’ is apphed. This is a composition which comes prepared in the shape of a round ball, about the size of a black wainut, and 1s made of aiphaltum, beeswax and oil lavender, This composition is carefully tied un 1m silk, and through this silk " the ctching ground oozes on to the plate, where it Inid with a roller, After the ground is avplied and | smoked, in order to give black surface on which to work The smoking is done with a twisted wix taper, candles, or in tact with any sub stance which will produce the desired eficet, When the plate is cold the ground 18 perfectlydiard, So much for the first part of the proces, that of preparing the plate. ‘“I'he eteher is now ready for work in carncst. He takes a drawing, which, of course, may be origina! or a copy. and etehes its fac-simile ‘on the plate before him. If he wishes to take special pains with his subject, which isusually the case, he does not copy the drawing directly on the piate, but takes an intermediate step. Over his drawing he fastens a pertectly hard transpary gelatine composition, and with his_etching point etches the drawing on this, exacily on the principle of the transparent slate of our nursery Y atine plate 1s removed, and sents a rough and seratehed surface. 1t is lightly scraped, but so lightly that the indented lines are not disturbed or eflaced. These liaes are tilled with red chalk, The atine plate is then r versed and placed on the etching ground of the copper plate. A burnishe ap- plied, which transfers the chalk to the etcher's torm or upon the plate. Thus the cteher has & perfeet outline of the drawing on the plate on which he is to In this way he is guided in his and his work is expedited. The etcher now begins to use the tools of his trade, each of which is known an ‘etching pomt.” With these instru- ments the sul gain etched, this time on the etcher’s ground.

Of course th cid pites into the copper plate only where the etching point has stretehed through the eteher’s ground to the origmal copper plate. If the plate on which the artist is at work is a small one, it is pluced in a pan and the acid is then poured on.

I think, however, thatits special adaptation in the hands of an artist is to enable him to give to the pub- lic, not to one person, something ot his individual work, something which has the charm of a sketeh, yet which can be produced to any extent. For instance, ist sketehos a landscape, It1s ime possible for more than one person to own that picee of work, that is, theve is but one coy there 1 possibly be but one Now the etehing enables the artist to giv his sketeh to the public in just the mood in which it v made.
