Made by Miss Church.

MISS ANGELINA SCHUYLER CHURCH.
" Mr. and Mrs. George A. Mahan of
Hannibal, Mo., recently presented to
their home city the house built in
1844 by Mark Twain's father, in which
the famous author first saw the light
of day. .
Miss Angelina '.Schuyler Church of
New York city is the talented young
artist who was commissioned to make
the bronze tablets which have been
placed on the outside of the house in
commemoration of the occasion. Peo
ple who are interested in the educa
tion that does not forget character
building are enthusiastic over the
legend that the inscription tablet pre
sents. It reads: "Mark Twain's life
teaches that poverty is an incentive
rather than a bar and that any boy,
however humble his birth and sur
roundings, may by honesty and indus
try accomplish great things."
Pedagogues who have seen the tab
lets are suggesting that they deserve a
place in the public schools of the na
tion, not only because of their artistry,
but .because of the lesson conveyed,
the comfort and stimulus in the sug-'
gestion, which could hardly fail to be
advantageous, linked with the fascina
tion that Mark Twain exerts over vast
numbers of young people.
Miss Church's portrait of the au
thor in the tablet has been called the
best yet made. Concerning it the Rev.
Joseph H. Twitchell of Hartford, a
lifelong friend of Twain, says: "1
could riot have supposed there could
have been made so living a likeness of
the man in. that form. Really it brings
my dear old friend to life again as no
picture of him does."
MissChureh until recently has confined
her art work to depicting animal life,
and her study of "The .Runaway An
Episode of Central Park, New York
City," has won particular favor from
critics.
The artistic education of Miss Church
has been radically different from the
conventional methods that crystallize
the ideals of the schools. The only use
she has made of teachers has been for
the purpose of acquiring technique.
The New York School of Applied De
sign, Mucha of Paris, an authority on
composition, and Beard, the animal
painter, have been her instructors.
Technique having been acquired. Miss
Church turned to the teachers to whom
she professes her greatest debt horses
and dogs. These she studied from life
until she knew their every bone and
muscle and their co-ordination.
Miss Church was recently invited by
Uruguay to enter a competition for an
equestrian statue of a South American
hero especially dear to that nation.
Has Nursed For Forty-five Years.
In connection with the death of Lord
Lister it is interesting to know that the
nurse who assisted the famous sur
geon with his first antiseptic prepara
tions is still in the Glasgow Royal in
firmary. Nurse Bell has many inter
esting stories of the old days when
Professor Lister was in the Infirmary
and the crowd of students and dress
ers, many of them now chiefs, who
attended the classes from 1861 to 1869.
Nurse Bell has been in 'the Royal in
firmary for forty-five years. She is
now sixty-nine years of age. and she
enjoys good health, though not able to
do much. When Lord Lister was pre
sented with the freedom of the city of
Glasgow four years ago it was his spe
cial desire that Nurse Bell should be
present at the function in St Andrew's
ball. When the .memorial service was
held In the university chapel she had
a special invitation to be present.
Of Course He Didn't.
Husband What a peculiar dish.
Wife I did the cooking myself, and
in turning the leaves of the cookbook
I turned two at a time, and 1 cooked
the herrings In apple Jelly, but you
don't mind, do you ? Satire.
MEASURE OF SUCCESS.
It is one of the appointed condi
tions of the labor of men that in
proportion to the time between the
seed sowing and the harvest is the
fullness of the fruit and that gener
ally, therefore, the farther off we
place our aim and the less we de
sire to be ourselves the witnesses of
what we have labored for the more
wide and rich will be the measure
of our success.- John Ruskin.

TEXAS CATTLE-IS
SHIPPED TO PORTLAND
PORTLAND, July , 13. Two
cars of cattle arrived " in the
yards in North Portland this
morning from Sweetwater, Texas,
shipped by A. B. Vreenmaier. They
are feeders. The run was light,
however, the other shippers for
the daybeing G. E. Luckey, Cond
on, one car hogs and sheep, and
W. E. Eddon, Garabana, Or., two
cars cattle. The markets were
reported steady but sales was con
fined to a few bunches of cows.
Some weakness has been shown
in the lamb and sheep markets
during the week and some predict
a slump in the near future, but
there is nothing to indicate this
with much of a certainty. The
demand for feeder steers is good.

Some Brief Epitaphs.

and curious epitaphs seen in European
cemeteries: At Worcester, England,
the slab erected over a departed auc
tioneer is inscribed with a single word.
"Gone." . In Sussex the initials and date
of the" death of the deceased are fol
lowed by two words, "He was." On
the monument of Charles the Great of
Germany the brief inscription is "Ca
ralo Magno." The most remarkable is
at Cane Hill cemetery, Belfast, where
the inscription says, "Left till called
for."
