Van Pelt, general manager of the Travelers’ Protective Association of the United States, is out on a tour through the west and it is expected that he will make Omaha a visit., He was in Kansas City last week looking after the Missouri division. The office of general manager wus created at the last national convention, held in At- lantic City, and Mr. Van Pelt was se- lected as the best equipped to perform its duties and to put the machinery of the association into working order. The principal objects are to incrense the membership, both active and as- sociate, to see that the committee work of the railroad, hotel, press, legislative and employment committees is properly performed, and to look after the general welfare ot the association. At the request of George S. McGrew, resident of Missouri division 1. P. A., K{r. Van Pelt agreed to begin his first work for the benefit of the state hy vis- fting St. Louis, Kansas City and St. Jo- seph. He has already visited St. Louis and is now ready to begin in Kansas City. His success thus far has surpassed all expectations. Prior to the Atlantic City convention the Missouri division h on its roll not quite seventy-five active members in good standing and no associate mémbers. No contracts had been mude with hotels, livery stables, bus lines or transfer companies grant- ing special rates to members of the T. P.A. To-day the total result foots up ns follows: Active members, over eight hundred; associate members (wholesale firms), 200; contracts granting special rates to members of the T, P. A., over one hundred and fifty, scattered over the states of Kansas, Missouri and Towa. * *x New York Drummers. This is about the time of year that New York drummers strike western cities with their samples of fur goods, gents’ furnishings and tobacco for fall and winter orders. A, N.

It consisis of a series of sketches upon French life and abounds in the author’s inimitable humor. “A Crooked Path,” by Mrs. Alexan- der, has been published in Rand, Mc- Naliy & Co.’s Globe Library. Mr. J. Fitzgerald has translated from the French the interesting monograph of Th. Ribot upon “The Physiology of Attention.” The work 18 published in the Humbolt Library. Belford, Clarke & Co., Chicago, have issued two more volumes in the House- hold Library. ‘‘The Pace That Kills,” by Edgar Saltus, has reached its second edition, while the last number contains ‘A Blind Bargain,” by Robert Howe Fletcher, Albert Ross, the now famous author of “Thou Shalt Not,” has produced an- other entrancing piece of fiction, under the title, ‘‘His Private Character,” which has j been issued from the press of G.” W. Dillingham. Though told with less boldness chan the former story, it is quite_its equal in absorbing interest. The characters are distinctly individualized, the incidents adroitly connéeted, and the whole written in a pleasing manner, A novelty in illustrated book work has been issued by Henry R. Knapp of San Francisco. It is aseries of pic produced from photographs taken in neatly hound together, They illustrate the various phases of Chinese life in theirquarter of the city. White & Allen, of New York and London,bave just issued their catalogue of new publications for 1889, The illus- trating of their books in a worthy man- ner has been a subject of special atten - tion with them. They have employed only artists of ability and repute, and that the productions might be mechan- ically perfect, they have examined every known process and new inven- tiou, both in the United States and in Europe, for reproducing water colors and black und white drawings.

BORN GENIUSES IN AM ERICA, To be Sure the Beitish Don't Like Thelr Work But That's Natnral ~Rellgion of Music— The Angelus. Tademn on Art. The American visitors to the conti- nent cannot help woticing the large numberof young men and women en- gaged 1n the study of art. In the great cathedral in Antwerp I saw at leasta score of women and nearly as maoy young men copying Rubens’ “Descent from the Cross,” writes Frederic San- burn from London. In the Louvre in Paris, and in the great art gaileries of London, thousands of young men and women spend their annual vacation in copying the great masterpieces, Those who have been to the Paris exposition, and studied the wonderful collection of pictures there, need not be told that art is making great strides even in the art- loving centers of the Old World. Of all the English actists who have made fame and money, none ranks higher than Lawrence Alma Tadema. lcall him English becauso he has been so long a naturalized citizen of Great Britaln. As a matter of fact he is a Dutchman. But Englishmen proudly look upon him as their own, In the social, literary, and art life of London he is a familiar tigure. He goes everywhere, is a groat Girst-nignter, and never fails to be present at any ex- hibition of paintings. It requires a thoroughly good introduction and soma diplomacy to gain entrance to his studio. I presented tne letter that a well-known London literary mou gave me introduc- ing me, and in a fow days reccived a card stating that the great artist would be at home on such and such a date, and would be pleased to see me at § o'cloe A trim and rosy-cheoked par- lor maid answered my ring at the door- bell and in a few minutes coaducted me to the artist’s workshop. He was busily engaged WITH PAL TE AND BRUSI aslentered. He produces more w ders in warble than muny iirstr sculptors, and his fowerings and col- umns are alw: the t of a London exhibition. From, all quarters of tho earth honors have been bestowed upon him, and his classic groaps of perfect forms are to be s h boasts o approaching civilization. In f aers pour upon him soincessant such numbers, that he finds it al impossible to execute haif of them. N urally there is a temptation to hurry his work, but even Tade enemie: admit that anything bes igna- ture is remarkable for i roful detail and conscientious work. s Lenter he drops his brush, pushes his leghorn back on his head, blows a big biue cloud of smoke into the air. heartily. weighi as he his accent is decidedly eign. Sois his appearance. He looks and is a little over 1ift; He is and stoutly built; and most ener his movements. He is probubly least imposing object in his studio. Ho looks at you through a pair of large, round spectacles. and his Leghorn hat with & wide brim isnow and then pushed backward and forward on his head in a careless way. His studio is so magnifi- cent that the figzure of any human bein would of necessity appear unimpos He exchanges a few commouplaces with me, picksup his palette and brush, puffs vigorously at his cigar for u mo- ment, and say: “1 must sit down to work, I pray you will do so, too. Witi a motion of his hand he jindicates the very chair I would have selected my- seif, for from that place T can look over the great master’s shoulder und admire the deft touches which were reproduc- ing the great T ‘**A DEDICATION TO BACCHUS,” ““You see that canvas there,” said the artist, pointing to an unfinished work work behind his easel; ‘‘that cost me eight months’ hard labor. Then it was pun‘uaidu‘ It is not finished, never will be.” I expressed some surprise at this, and walleed a step or two to glance at it. *It did not satisfy me,” continued the noticing my look of doubt. *‘If you ask me why it is not good enough, I should tell you that I do not know. [ worked very hard, and as I said, spent eight months on it. 1t did not suit me. However, it formed a study for “A Reading from Homer,”” which only took me about six weeks to finish. These two lustances I mention because it may interest you to know how long I spend on my works,” He stuck his cigdr in his mouth again puffed vigorously for a few moments, and went on painting as though no stranger were looking over his shoul- der. It was an opportunity for a quick glance around the studio which 1 em- braced. Itisa big room or hall, with crimson velvet tapestry, which once embraced some Neapolitan palace, The massive window reachesto the ceiling, filling one end of the room,or rather hall, with a flood of light. There are odds and ends of pictures, bits of statuary, a magazine, some newspaoer, a novel here and there, dn easy clLair, a pipe or two, a haif-empticd bottie of claret, some crackers, a walking stick, an umbrella, and other things, which indicate that this part of the house be- longs exclusively to the greatartist. But the center of attraction, after all, was the nearly finished reproduction of the ‘Dedication to Bacchus,’and my eyeo involuntarily sought it again. ““You have noticed,” T suid, by way of opening the conversation, “the large number of young men and women who are spending their duys in the various art galleries copying great pictures, Do you consider that art is making good progress in England and America Just now? ARE YOU SATISFIED WITH THE PRO- GRESS?” Aoother cloud of bine smoke. Down oes the palette,and the great Leghorn at is pushed to the back of the great arvst’s head. He answers quickl; “That is a difficult question.” The ideal of some of us may be so high that perbaps we may never be satisfied with the progress of arl, or, on the other hand, we may be thankful that there is any progr at all. Looking at the English display at the Paris ¢xposition tends to confirm me in the belief that art is making some progress. I think you may eafely say 8o, at any rate in Eogland.” *Do you except America?’ I asked. “Well, you see,” replied the artist, hounestly, I do not know enough of America tosay. Her artists are Amer- ican, and remain so. America keeps to herself a great deal. Shedoes not show abroad as much as she should, ? “Such American art as is shown the Eulish—in what esteem is it held on the continent?” *'Oh, our artists are naturally English, and will not other school. “‘But I suppose that {s only an ex- ample of ordinary ®atural prejudice?’ “‘No, there is morg ;thun that.

You have some PORN GENIU IN AMERICA. It would be unfair 1in me to criticise them; in fact, at this moment I uo think of any eriticism that I could manke.” Now as to the beginners in art. In America it is generally understood that a Furopeun education is necossary for the development of an artist?” “Well,” continued Tadema, as he took up his brush, “that may be so. Millais is o great painter, and ho did not study abroad. I could namea hun- dred others similarly situated.. It de= pends upon circumstances a great deal, and upon the bent of the studeat’s mind. © In my country, spesking of myself, I had no advantages, and I had to seek them elsewhere. It is, of course, ess - ntial that the student should have facilities for the studies of great col- lections, and the British Museum, the great gallegios of England and of France afford these opportunitivs. It is my belief, speakinz again for myseif ssonally, that apart student ought not to travel until be has become an are tist and knows for what ho 18 traveling.

Rembrandt never left Amster- dam at al).” ““Would you be willing to give a few hints to Aw an art students? What course of study, for instance, would you recommend?” Down went the nallet and brush back went the Leghorn hat.and anoth clond of tobacco smoke. The artist shrugged his shoulders. “Oh, that is very difficult. T cannot answer that question: 1t is quite impos- sible. I must know the peo an and woman differ in their temper- ament, taste, and in their work. It would be folly for me or any other man to attempt to lay down a routine course of study for them. Work hard work, is a good motto.” T did not press the question. iustead touched on another one. The teaching of the many schools of art throughout the world. “SCHOOLS OF ART?” replied the artist, > right enongh,” he went on, but the tono did not say much for the right enough. “You he contitued, “these schools of art have one system for all their pu- pils. We will cail the bent of a pupil’s mind clew. Supposing the system of his school of artis red, heis only and he does not see the fault. then is the result?

I pay? “Well,” replied the artist, “*art talent can never be sufficiently remunerated, but if there ever wero times when painters were paid well, those times were during the Roman empire and now. The second-rate artist cannot live these days, but by that I do rot mean to say that there are nota lot of sacond-rate artists, and that a lot of sec- ond rate trash is often sold. For in- stance, there is a speculator who buys the works of unkuown artists in the hope that their name may some day be- come famous, and T have seen as high a price given for a picture by & boy who has just left off study as for ‘one of mine.” *Then, as an artist, you are willing to admit that the e big prices given said, *‘does picture painting NCE?” “*Oh, that was a humbug was the reply. “They could not get such a price,” and the artist becawe quite wrathful.

The lower classes don’t seem to take much intepest in art matters, They used to, but they don’t now, When they had a Catholic religion, a religon of art, a plastic religion, they could take an interest in art, and they did, It was their duty to admire the beauties of their' cathedrals and hurches. But Protestantism and Qua- kerism has stopped all this, TUHE PLASTIC RELIGION IS GONE, and in its place we are told that it is a 8in to go to & museur or art gallery on Sunday.

That will be accom- plished in time, don’t you think so? *Never, so long asthe bishops and archbishops hold sway.” I turned the conversation and asked what the artist thought of the using of famous pictures for advertising pur- poses. ‘I don’t like it,”” he replied honestly, *‘but if you paint for the gold and accept 1t from whomsoever it comes, what can you expect?” There was a knock at the door. A maiden—sue might have been a Grecian —entered with two daioty cups of & o'clock tea, which reminded Tadema that he must start for the academy.
