His average earnings in the | | central provinces are 17 and 18 ko- | pecks (8 to 9 cents) a day through- ! out of the year; during the busiest har- | vest time they rise to an average of | 27 to 36 kopecks (12 to 16 cents) a day; | during the whaje winter he and his | family earn nothing. His dlet con- sists of meal, flour and grits, cabbage * | and potatoes; no meat, excepting three times a year. His diet is insufficient, and less than in any civilized country. The hovel he lives in is two and a half yards long and one and one-half | vards high, harboging the whole fam- | |1ly and whatever cattle he possesses. These data are taken from official sources, | Isita r that the Russian peas- | ant has morally and physicaily degen- erated? Bhat the women are immoral, | dreading maternity, and given to a frightful extent to infanticide? That | the men are nomads, leaving wives | and children for months, often years, | trying to earn something in town or in far away districts? That the re- crulting in these central provinces | shows progressively physical unfitness for the army?

He Is also | a lawyer, and on occasion is capable of emphatic language. Over at the Sen- ate there is a doorkeeper, A. J. Max- ham, noted as a campaign singer, whose home is also in Brattleboro. When the rector of the little church ay Brattle- boro is unable to be present, because of duties elsewhere, Colonel Haskins and . Mr. Maxham practically run the | church. Colonel Haskins preaches and | Maxham sings. | A story is told about a prolonged | absence of the rector, which put upon Colonel Hasking unexpectedly the duty | of conducting the Sunday service. He met Maxham, who said that he could not sing that Sunday. “Not sing!” exclaimed the colonel, | hotly. ““Well, \now, Maxham, if you don't sing, I'll be—" Right there Colonel Haskins hesi- tated a moment, and, as a gullty look | came into his eye, added: “If Tl | preach.” But Mr. Maxham agreed to sing, and there was no occasion for Colonel Haskins to explain that hiatus in his remark.—Washington Post. —— e A Sapling With a History. An historic oak sapling was planted in the White House grounds recently. Secretary Hitchcock supplied the tree, and in connection with it told the Pres- ident a pretty story. : Many years ago Charles Sumner sent to the Czar of Russia some acorns from a stately oak which overhangs the tomb of Washington at Mount Vernon. The Czar caused the acorns to be planted in the grounds of the Peterhof | Palace in St. Petersburg. One of the acorns grew into a magnificent oak, which yet stands in the palace grounds. While in St. Petersburg in 1898 as !the United States Embassador, Mr. Hitchcock collected a handful of acorns | ! from the historic offspring of the Mt. Vernon oak, sent them to this country and had them planted in the grounds at his Missouri home. Some of them developed into fine saplings, and it is one of them that is to be planted in the White House grounds on Thursday. The planting, which is to be done at the instance of President Roosevelt, | will be without oemmony.—com.,-.l Journal, ¥ < |the'payrolls and ten clerks equally busy _written In the same hand the reader | style and learn to read it as readily as | ferent from the preceding one. | proper reading of each check !nvolve-l ““7 and an animal painter. both. to conceal them. and the animals. tions held in Ghent, Antwerp ART SUPPLEMENT T IS FREE WITH NEXT SUNDAY’S CALL “In the Pastu)e.” by Julien Jos, presents a rare combination of pictorial and artistic qualities. In it the artist has displayed exceptional,ability in three directions—as a landscapist, a figure painter His varied talents are so evenly balanced and so harmoniously combined in this picture that it would be a difficult matter to decide which he has painted best—the cattle, the young peasant woman who is caring for their wants or the landscape which serves as a setting for It has other qualities which are not the result of the artist’s skill as a painter, but which are the expression of his thought and feeling. There is a vigor and brilliancy to be observed in the effect of sunlight, and he has given a vivacity to the movements of the animals and the action of the figure. In the grass and foliage of the landscape there is abundant det: sure touch, free from any suggestion of labored uncertainty in his methods of painting. All this com= bines to give in the picture an agreeable effect of truth and lifelikeness. The cattle are particularly well drawn and painted. It has been said that pictures of horses are less apt to please than representations of ‘cattle or sheep, for the reason that horses are generally more closely observed by the public, and defects in the drawing of these animals are more quickly noted, while in paintings of cattle such defects are overlooked, provided there is agreeable color and a picturesque quality of roughness in the painting In this painting by Julien Jos there has been no attempt to avoid difficulties. Forms are well defined, values are truthful and colors well observed. There is artist’s comprehensive study, from the blades of grass in the foreground to details of the figure There is a satisfying sense of completeness, and yet he has shown how to subordinate parts of his picture to gain unity of subject. It is scientific rather than emotional painting, and yet is not lacking in feeling and spirit. Julien Jos is a native of Belgium and has his studio in Brussels. He is a pupil of the cele- brated cattle painter, Franz de Beul, and is, to some extent, a follower of Julien Dupre: He was awarded a silver medal at the Brussels Universal Exposition and medals at exhibi- appreciated in America as in Europe. tl72 Pastu re” “In the Pasture.” but it is painted with a frank, evidence everywhere of the and other European cities. His work is almost as well known and CHAMPION FAST TALKER OF THE \\'H(\)LE WORLD Baltimore Man Can Talk Eight Hours | at the Rate of 65,040 Words Per Hour. The champion fast talker of the world has been discovered in Baltimore. He| is Lloyd Conway, about 30 years old,| and holding a clerkship in the Balti-| more and Ohio offices in that city. He| claims that he holds the talking record, and in support of his claim he has is- | sued a challenge to every man, woman | and child in the world to a long-dis- tance talking contest. Conway claims that he can talk 65,040 words an hour, and that he can and| has talked incessantly elght hours a day for nine consecutive days without any ill effects. He also expresses the | belief that he can exceed this remark- able record. In addition to his remarkable rapid- ity of speech Conway's voice has a range of nearly four octaves, the aver- age range of the human voice being about two octaves. Conway’'s claim for unparalleled rapidity of speech is almost incredible, but hundreds of friends can testify as to his wonderful vocal powers. He says | that by actual count he can speak at! the rate of 1084 words a minute, or about eighteen words a second. The greater part of his daily duties consists of reading off pay checks, and he keeps two clerks busy checking oft | making out the checks. The work is one that requires absolute accuracy, the slightest mistake meaning a loss in dollars and cents, and since he has, been thus employed Conway has made | but one slight error. The pay checks| read by Conway one month recently | totaled 42,000, and this was done with- out a single error. The checks are| written by ten different clerks and, of course, are in _ten entirely different styles of writing. This is one of the most important particulars to be con- sidered in order to realize Conway's| accomplishment. Were the checks all| would soon become accustomed to the printed words, but the different checks are so mixed that almost every one he | reads is madé out in handwriting dif- The the pronunciation of from twenty to twenty-four words, and Conway says that he can read about 1300 checks an hour. As has been explained, however, the ading of the check requires great and accuracy, and is very differ- ent from sight reading of a book or newspaper as a feaf!
