THE SAINT PAUL GLOBS
master of saltpetre, James Pain, will
be one of the features of encampment
week in St. Paul, and it is promised
that the spectacle will be put on in the
most complete manner. At the world's
fair, as well as the eastern sea shore
resorts, where the production has been
seen, witnesses all agree that in Pom
peii has been seen the ultimate triumph
of the art pyrotechnic, while the tragic
history of the buried city affords an
opportunity for the presentation of a
varied programme, preceding the fire
works, second to none possible with
any pyrotechnic display extant, and
that, too, without forcing the pro
gramme. The result is that Pompeii
has in every case been found one of
the most enjoyable of the great spec-

tacles. The "Burning of Rome" ap
proaches it, the "Battle of Wei Hai
Wei, which was the stellar feature at
the late cotton centennial at Atlanta,
appealed to a current interest more
strongly, but none of the shows pos
sess the general interest that attaches
to this graphic picture of the ruin of
the pleasure loving Italian city in the
midst of its gayety and mirth.
The throngs that will visit St. Paul
during the fair and exposition have
led Manager Pain to make arrange
ments for its production here, under the
personal supervision of Mr. James
Pain himself, and for that purpose he
has secured a lease of the entire block
bounded by Aurora, Grotto, Fuller
and St. Albans streets, where the cir-
cus recently exhibited. Work will be
begun at once on thf enclosure and the
gTand stand, which "will seat between
15,000 and 20,000 people. The stage will
be 500 feet long aad nearly 200 feet
deep, and the scenefy will be brought
here from New T<m|c. Within the en
closure will be the forking rooms for
the care and preparation of the explo
sives, no small undertaking, as the
fireworks alone consumed each night
reach several hundred dollars in value.
The scenery and apparatus used in
the production will be brought here
from New York on a special train, and
it requires twenty large cars to trans
port the scenery &n§ effects, as well as
the explosives and other material. The
scenery is most of It of Iron and wood,
although some canvas is used with
bright colors, in order to heighten the
effect and make it appear more nat
ural. Mr. Pain himself, one of the
greatest exhibtors of fireworks in the
world, will be present, and personally
superintend the production. Two weeks
are needed to place the scenery in po
sition.
"LA BELLE TRILBY."
Cooper* Fatnons Painting Drawing
Large Crowds.
Astley D. M. Cooper's great painting,
"Trilby" is still on exhibition at 417
Wabasha, and thousands of people are
visiting it. It has become quite the
thin« to "do" Trilby, and visitors
seem to take great delight in sys
tematically studying it from different
positions. It is possible almost any
time to find some student passing judg
ment on the canvass, in pose, in draw
ing, in modeling, and in perspective
Cooper has done remarkable work and
artists and students are frank in their
expressions to this end. Cooper com
menced work on the picture shortly
after Dv Maurier's novel made its ap
pearance, and he has chosen one of
the scenes where "Trilby" posed for
"the altogether" and he has handled
his subject with great delicacy. There
is nothing suggestive about the picture,
it is simply and purely a beautiful art
creation. On the picture the model
stands upon a pedestal iv an alcove of
red plush screens and so perfectly has
the artist done the work that the alcove

seems to have a depth cf several feet.
It is difficult to realize that the picturg
is painted on a flat surface. A real step
meets a painted one and over it ia
passed a rug of oriental design, which'
has been duplicated so faithfully In tha
painting that one is not able to tell
which is real and which is painted.
The coloring throughout shows the
work of a master hand. The canvasa
is Bxl2 feet. It was purchased for
$25,000. The painting lias been on ex
hibition for eight months in several
of the larger cities and has always at
tracted crowds of people.
The board of county commissioners will
hold an adjourned n3entlng at 10 a. in. tomor
row for the purpose ol completing tLe budge!
for the ensuing year.
