THE RICHMOND PALLADIU3I AND SUN-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 190S.

Greeneastle, Ind., May 27. Joy over the success of President Edwin Holt Hughes of De Pauw, who was yesterday elected a bishop by the Methodist Episcopal General Conference in Baltimore, and sorrow at the prospect of losing the popular "prexy" are the mingled sentiments of Greencastle in general and of De Pauw students in particular tonight. That it will be some time before a successor to fr. Hughes as president of the university shall be chosen was signified tonight by President Robert L. O'Hair of the Central National Bank, who is a member of the board of trustees of the university. He said: "It is not probable that Dr. Hughes's successor will be seleted during commencement week This June, but it would be conservative to say that the choice will be made within a year." Field Secretary Samuel B. Towne, paid that although the election of President Hughes to the bishopric might for a short time hinder De Pauw's progress he had no fear for the continued prosperity of the school. The faculty and students of Do Pauw held a mass meeting in Meharry Hall yesterday afternoon following the news of President Hughes's election in Baltimore. Vice President H. A. Gobin of the faculty was the first called to the plaform. He expressed his pleasure over Hughes's success and suggested that, the student, body make arrangements for giving him a great ovation on his return. Prof. William Seaman, head of the philosophy department was among others who spoke. He congratulated the church upon securing Dr. Hughes as a bishop. Dr. Seaman said that while De Pauw should keenly feel his loss for the time being, he had no doubt that the school's future was brighter than it had ever been. Field Secretary S. B. Towne expressed the same sentiments. Edwin Holt IJuprhes. Jr.. aped !. was taken to the platform and introduced as "Bishop" Hughes, Jr. He was cheered loudly as he made a childish bow and hastened to a seat behind a number of professors.

Chapman of Donaldson, Ind. in which he said he was engaged by Mrs. Gunness to build a woven-wire fence about the farm. She was his constant companion during the time he was employed, not permitting him to get out of her sight. At a certain place on the farm she wanted Chapman to make a crook in the fence, which he at first refused to do. She told him she had a favorite horse buried there, and the fence was finally built to encircle it. Smutzer believes this to be the burying place of bodies, and it will be dug up.

REPORTS TO PRESIDENT

INDIANS

Col Scott Makes Broad Investigations. Washington, May 27. Col. H. L. Scott, fourteenth cavalry, superintendent of the United States Military academy, made an oral report to the president of his recent negotiations with the Navajo and other Indians for the settlement of certain troubles which have threatened the peace of the Southwest. Col. Scott was engaged on his mission two months and traveled 7,000 miles in the Indian reservations in Colorado, Utah, New Mixico, Arizona and Oklahoma. " ACCIDENTS IN ART. The Ruin of a Burne-Jones and the Mending of a Turner. A very curious history Is that of Burne-Jones favorite picture, "Love Among the Ruins." -writes M. H. Spielmann in the London Graphic. The original picture was in water color and was sent to Furls by a firm of art publishers for reproduction and in that city forwarded to their photographic studios in the suburbs. The picture unhappily preceded the letter of Instructions regarding it warning the photographer of the medium which It was painted, so that inm i iy on Its arrival it was brushed . r with white of egg to bring out the colors for photographing an excellent procedure in the case of oil pictures, harmless and very efficacious. But as to tht Burne-Jones picture. Love was very soon among hia own ruins, for every swish of the brush brought off the final touches and left a mere smeare ground. Sir Kdward Burne-Jones was heartbroken at the loss of a work on which his reputation, he considered, would In great measure rest and on which he had spent many months of patient toil and the very perfection of his execution in the realization of one of the most poetic conceptions that had sprung from his fanciful imagination. "Love Among the Ruins" was painted during the years 1870-3. In October, 1S93. it was destroyed, and by the following year the oil version was finished, but was scarcely a consolation to the artist for the loss of bis first and more sppntaneous work. Incidents of this sort are happily not of frequent occurrence, but one case has come within my knowledge which has never, I believe, been recorded. A wealthy connoisseur, with a roomful of beautiful Turner drawings, was In the habit of instructing a firm well known as honorable picture dealers to overhaul his drawings, but his Turners had not for some time been touched, and the glasses had become much darkened with dust On his leaving town the 6enIor member of the firm went to his house and brought away the precious drawings and, carrying them into the room behind the shop, took the first drawing out of its frame and mount preparatory to dusting it and laid it on the table. Being suddenly called into the shop by a customer, he covered It with a sheet of Whatman paper and left it. His brother entered from the 6treet and passed into the private room. A moment later the other followed and found him, knife in hand, cutting a mount on the top of the Turner. With a cry, he rushed to the paper and lifted it, and there the horrified brothers found the 2,000 guinea drawing cut into two pieces. What was to be done? To make a clean breast of it was apparently out of the question, sc it was determined to call in the clever artist and repairer attached to the firm, and he joined the pieces and remounted the drawing, and down where the vertical cut was he boldly painted in a tree! The picture was in due course taken back and retaung in time for the owner's return. A couple of days later came an urgent letter calling the dealer to the house. "Look at this drawing," said the collector. "What does it mean! There's a tree here. I never saw that tree before!" "No more did I," quietly replied the dealer. "I told you that you would hardly recognize the drawings when the glasses had been cleaned inside and out Why, you could hardly see them!" The owner, though stil! astonished, accepted the explanation and t this day has probably never guessed the truth. The dealer told the story himself shortly before his death.

Ql) STRANGESTORY TOLD Brother of Hoosier's Wife Proves to Be Her Divorced Husband. HE LIVED WITH FAMILY. Laporte, Ind., May 27. Enoch Asbury Stone, who deserted his wife in this city last fall and was arrested in Nebraska, was found guilty in Laporte circuit court today and fined $10 and costs and disfranchised for three years. But for one juror Stone would have been acquitted, because his defense was a most remarkable story. He testified that he married in Chicago in 1902 and soon thereafter a man, whom his wife introduced as her brother, came to live with them. For five years this man, Harry Knott, lived with the Stones'. Then one day Stone discovered that Knott was his wife"s former husband and that they had been divorced after 20 years of married life, in which time the wife had become the mother of eight children. When recalled to the stand Mrs. Stone admitted the deception, but denied that there had been anyhing wrong in that time. Even Knott's own children had been taught to call him uncle. Stone now says he will obtain a divorce from his wife so that she may remarry Knott, which, it is declared she desires to do. A Marvel of the Ea6t. Among other feats in the east the learning by heart of the Koran is verj widespread. Not only men. but women and children, can be found who can repeat the holy book from beginning to end without a mistake. Taking it ir round numbers, the Koran contains, together with the additions, which are included in the recitation, some 60.00C words. This is about the length of an average up to date novel, but. unlike the novel, there are no connecting links the whole book being a confused and much mutilated jumble to enable the reciter to remember. To make the least error would be a deadly sin. yel even children can go through It But this is not all. For an Arabic child tc recite the Koran is wonderful enough no doubt, but he understands what he la saying it is not to him an unknown language but for a child of another nation to recite it from beginning tc end. without understanding the words he is saying. Is a much more wonderful feat of memory, and very few of those outside Arabia who can recite the Koran know more than a few of the simplest words, If they know those England's Lion. The British Hon means so much to us all that it seems almost treason tc suggest that he is after all not the terrible wild fowl (to quote Bottom) that foreigners think him, but sad to say. this is so. For in the older armorial bearing of England our lion is a leopard. It was all the fault of the early heralds of France, from whom out arms seem to have been derived. According to them, the Hons passant and gardant of the arms of the kings of England were either lions leoparded or lions maned. The omission of the mane, in rude tricking, would reduce them to leopards, and this our lions originally were. The Emperor Frederick, in choosing his presents to our Henry III., so construed, according to Mathew Paris, our royal shield. "In quo tres leopardi tranenntes figurantur" that Is, in which three leopards, stalking, are figured. Thus Henry seems to have had no reason to be annoyed when the emperor sent him the wrong blesutic beast, P arson's .Weekly.

ENGINEER WAS DEAD Fast Overland Limited Crashed Over Maze of Chicago Switches. MANY LIVES WERE IN PERIL Chicago. 111., May 27. With a dead man at the tlm ie, the Overland Limited, premier train of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad, flew past the dangerous interlocking; switches at Byron, 111., but, as by a miracle, the lives of the hundreds of passengers were saved.

DODGES THEOUESTION Mrs. Ruiz Asked If She Will Marry Alfred Vanderbilt. "THAT'S RICH" SHE SAYS. New York, May 27. Mrs. Ruiz, alleged by Mrs. Alfred G. Vanderbilt to have been the cause of her divorce, was asked outright if she intended to marry Vanderbilt. "Oh. that is rich." she laughed. "Avhat a funny idea!" "You know Mr. Vanderbilt?" she was asked. "Why, of course, I know him," she answered. "I never denied it. But the use of my name with his is unwarranted. And I protest against it. My affairs are my own." Vanderbilt is in England now, and when Mrs. Ruiz was asked if the report that she was going to Europe was true she replied: "I will go if I want to. Why shouldn't I?"

CONGRESS IS SLAPPED

Printing Investigation Committee Says House Should Be More Careful. WOULD BE LESS ERRORS. Washington, May 27. Ry direction of the Joint Printing Investigating committee of the senate and house there was submitted to congress the i report of the subcommittee which has been investigating affairs in the Government Printing office. The report says: "Upon the strength of this recommendation the president suspended the Public Printer. The action taken by the president, at the instance of the committee, saved nearly $40,00 through the termination of the auditsystem contract, which otherwise would have been wastefully expended. The subcommittee earnestly recommends the placing of a limitation in each appropriation bill which will prevent expenditures exceeding the estimates submitted by the Public Printer." The report says there would be less serious errors if congress would exercise closer supervision over the office. ALASKAN SOLDIER IS NOW IN CHARGE Commander of Ft. Harrison Near Indianapolis.
