In Miss Elizabeth Hasemeier, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Hasemeier, the Richmond May Festival of this year, has an accomplished accompanist. Through the long periods of rehearsals with two choruses, she has been unfailing In her support, and a large measure of the progress made is directly attributed to Miss Hasemeler's great skill as a pianist and marked ability as an accompanist. Miss Hasemeier's fir3t piano studies were with Mrs. Mary Weber Hunt, of Richmond, whose own services as Festival accompanist are so well and favorably remembered. Following this. Miss Hasemeier was a student in the Cincinnati college of music, under Mr. Albino Gorno, for piano, and Mr. Louis Victor Saar, for theory. She was then awarded a teacher's certificate with distinction. Miss Hasemeier is now teaching, having a large number of students

from Richmond and vicinity. She is a member of the executive board of the Richmond Musical Study club, and a prominent figure in the best of other local musical activities. ENTERTAINING GUESTS. Mr&. Vern Thomas of North Eighteenth street is entertaining Mrs. R. T. Kirkham of Stoy. Illinois, and Mrs. Edward Kenroy, of St. Joe, Michigan. Mrs. Kenroy formerly resided in this city. 8 CONCERNING LOCAL EXHIBIT. An art exhibit was held in Dayton recently at the Steele High school and in reference to the local exhibit the Dayton News says: "At Richmond, ind., a city one-third or one-fourth the size of Dayton, there is an Art Association that yearly buys one or two good pictures for the benefit of the city. An annual art exhibition is held to which they charge admission and invite painters all over the country to send their work for exhibition and possible purchase. Manyare glad to send paintings in the hope of sale and so the citizens have the opportunity to become familiar with contemporary artists. Year by year the number of pictures purchased has increased and now the city council has become interested and makes a yearly appropriation for this purpose. All this was brought to pass by one little woman, Mrs. M. F. Johnston. What may not your members accomplish in the future as the result of interest in art here begun? The councilmen and school boards of tomorrow are doubtless in our schools today; some now here may be destined for official positions, may gain wealth or influence and be able to aid in the uplift of Dayton. What we need most to promote art interest and education is a building, the lower portion of which could house our growing museum with a gallery above where pictures could be hung. The place once provided we should undoubtedly receive gifts from public-spirited citizens and the bare walls would make a continual appeal to us to adorn them. 98 C GUESTS AT DAYTON. Mrs. Florence Young and son Master Varley of South Eighth street were guests at Dayton, Ohio, over Sunday. While there Mrs. Young'was a guest at a party.

No matter bow hot and sti31ng the night and no other place can be so stifling as the equatorial African night during the long rainy season in the midst of the jungle one must sleep under a closely tucked in mosquito bar, not the ventilated kind civilization knows, but oue of closely woven stun through which no air circulates. When the mostjuito bar was let down it took in almost the entire room, but it proved especially useful in sickness and conv&lesoeuce. It permitted existence free from inect bites. As malaria is the white man's most insidious foe aud cotues from the bite of the mosquito, every precaution must be takeu against it. Three things ar absolutely uecessary iu Africa a mosquito bar. a water filter and quinine. The bed was made by a native carpenter. The frame was of wood, the slats of bamboo ribs fitted closely together with the pith side uppermost. They didn t give a bit and were an excellent dancing floor for the dried plantain leaves which made the mattress. The leaves were confined beneath ticking tacked to the four sides of the bed. but they matted easily, and every niglit it was continuous leaf turning for me. The bamboo was slippery, aud insomnia kept me and the

A Cynical Statesman. The saying that "all men have their price" is ascribed to Sir Robert V81 pole. While speaking of a faction Id parliament which bitterly opposed some of his measures be said, "You see with what zeal and vehemence these gentlemen oppose me. and yet 1 know the price of every man in this house except three." Of some who called themselves patriots he said: "Patriots! I could raise fifty of them within four and twenty hours. I have raised many in one night. "Us but to refuse an unreasonable demand and up springs a patriot."

JEFFERSON'S PICTURES. A Wonderful Landscape Painted Entirely From Imagination. Marvelous were the products of Jefferson's inspiration. He had created a school of his own. He was prone to portray forest scenes, with tree trunks of wonderful size, iu accurate military formation. Old mills were a favorite subject with him, especially old mills with water wheels, and in some of his paintings he actually accomplished the impossible, for to all inteuts and purposes he succeeded in making the water run'uphilt. This having been called to his attention by an overcritical friend, Mr. Jefferson responded that he was well pleased with the result, for "few men could have accomplished it" When president of the Players club, a position he held for so many years before his death. Mr. Jefferson presented to the club a large canvas of his own. If the writer remembers correctly, there was a pond in the foreground. 'with rushes, a tumbledown bouse and a large and rather theatrical looking forest, all painted, the artist boasted, in the dead of winter in his own sitting room and entirely from .bis i ' uauation,. Whfji. it- -was

"Now. 1 want you to tell me." he sad frankly, with his childlike and delightful smile, "what you think of it." "Well." replied the painter, responding to the pressure on his arm, "I'd like to have one hung as well as that." And the old gentleman was delighted. During his lifetime that picture remained in its prominent position, and whenever Mr. Jefferson entered the club he would manage to maneuver himself in front of it. regarding it from all sides and angles, and hardly ever did a picture receive so much praise and so little criticism as that marvelous landscape.
