CHICAGO. June IS. (Special.) At a

night, participated In by the Colonel
himself, it was decided to shelve Gov
ernor Johnson and Francis J. Heney,
slated as speakers at the big rally Mon
day night, and have speeches only from
benator Borah and the Colonel him
self.
Double significance attaches to this
change of programme. It means not
only that the Colonel regards Senator
Borah as a more effective campaigne
than the two California 4 progressives,
but that be no longer looks with favor
upon Johnson s Vice-Presidential boom.
Since his arrival In Chicago, Johnson
not only has made himself offensive

REMBRANDT NOW PROPERTY
OF "WHITE PINE KING."
Painting One Acquired- by Consul
Weber for $5000 Changes Hands
at Considerable Profit. ,
NEW YORK, June 15. Thomas Bar
low Walker, of Minneapolis, the "White
Pine King." has purchased "The Adult-
ress Before Christ," a Rembrandt pic
ture, which was recently disposed of at
the Weber sale in Hamburg, it is said.
Consul Weber, of Hamburg, acquired it
several years ago for $5000. The deal
era in this city through whom Mr.
Walker bought the picture, while not
giving the exact figures, said its latest
owner had paid a much larger amount
for It.'
The picture measures 44 by 53 Vi
Inches and has six large figures in it.
For many years it was in the collection
of the Duke of Marlborough at Blen
heim Castle, when it passed to the col
lection of Sir Charles Robinson, in Eng
land, and later to Charles S. Edelmeyer,
of Pari from whom it was purchased
by Consul Weber.
