Hard on the Mimchti rians.
In the list of conditions which Ad
miral Alexieff imposed upon the peo
ple of Manchuria, it will be recalled,
was included that they "should treat
the * Russian. . troops with confidence, ".
and that if "hatred" should be dis-
I played ; they would be "exterminated
| without mercy." Which reminds . tl\e
I London News of the woman who
found her boy not inclined to appre
ciate the delights . of Hampstead
Heath on bank holiday. "You enjoy
yourself this minute. Albert," she ad
' monished him, "or I'll box your, ears."
— New York Commercial Advertiser.
Darky Diplomacy.
John Sharh- Williams, the Missis
sippi wit, tells of a Southern friend
whose colored" valet fell in love with
a pair of loud checked trousers which
his master owned. By way of hasten
ing the day when they should be
turned over to him he threw some
grease on them. Then he reported
that he was unable to remove the
spots. . "Have you tried
Sam?" said his master. *
"Yes, sah."
"Have you tried ammonia?"
."No, sah," replied Sam, insinuating
ly. ¦ "I ain't tried demon me, but
I'm sho* them pants'll fit me good."
Bagging a Cheetah.
Here is a very recent instance of, the
plucky behavior often exhibited by
Indian villagers in dealing with the
great cats with which they sometimes
come into uncomfortable contact. The
"King" states that the brute pranced
upon four villagers who were reaping
paddy near a Ceylon village and
mauled them all pretty severely.
Thereupon the village seems to have
turned out and simply "shoo'd"- the
cheetah until it ran into a hut, out of
which the only occupant, an old wo
man, walked and closed the only door
behind her. Thanks to the splendid
pluck of this admirable female, the
cheetah was easily shot from the. roof.
It stood 3 feet high and measured over
8^ feet. — London Globe.
A Grand Fight.
Mart Sturtevant's bulldog Conser has
been cock of the walk in thia town for
many years. Besides easily vanquish
ing the biggest dogs he has killed seven
porcupines and Is an old customer of
the village blacksmith, who extracts
the quills of infuriated porcupines
which he has fearlessly attacked. Since
the arrival of the Aliens, who also have
a bulldog, Conser has been on his good
behavior. The merits of the two dogs
have been discussed at the corner
grocery, and some of the gamblers have
offered to bet two to one on the Allen
dog, thoufih a much smaller dog than
Conser. Wednesday, however, the two
dogs got tangled up in a fight on Wil
low street, and Ringling Brothers' cir
cus could not have attracted a larger
crowd. Men, women and children
flocked to see the fight. The marshal,
fearing that others might take a hand
in the scrap, made his appearance, and.
after seeing a round or 'two, ordered
the respective owners of the bulldogs
to pull them apart. It was "the best
fight that has taken plr*ce in the town
for a month.— Pilot Rock (Ore.) Rec

COLUSA, March 29. — A break in
the levee occurred at the Boggs-
Davis place, just below Prince
ton, but it would have been stopped
had it noLbeen for the rise in the river
following the rain of Sunday. The levee
went out to-day, and the water is now
coming through a break 700 feet wide
and in some places sixteen feet deep.
Perhaps 20,000 acres of the finest grain
will be lost.
The Howell Point levee connects with
a levee running down the west side of
the basin from Sycamore Slough, just
above College City. At the lower end
of the district the water will come very
nearly up to the river. This district
now has two dredgers at work, and by
another season will have levees so high
and strong that they will be safe under
almost all conditions.
STOCKTON, March 29. — Notwith
standing the heavy rain of yesterday
and continued rains to-day, there is
still no sign of high water here. The
reports sent out by the United States
Weather Bureau yesterday regarding
probable high water caused consider
able alarm here, but with the failure
of the high water to arrive the feeling
of alarm is subsiding.
FRESNO, Mjych 29.— The heaviest
rainfall ever seen In this section of
the country fell this afternoon. In less
than an. hour Weather Observer Bolton
reported .44 of an inch of rain. In
thirty minutes it rained .25 of an inch.
This makes the total rainfall for the
season 6.48 Inches, as compared with
6.70 inches last year. The cry for more
rain has changed to "too much rain."
The streets this afternoon were flooded,
the water rising above the level of the
sidewalks in several places.
SAN JOSE, March 29.— A slight rain
has been falling intermittently all night
and this forenoon. While the rain has
been heavy throughout the greater por
tion of the valley and foothills this
v/inter, the fall in this city has been
comparatively light. The total of 11.53
inches here to date is about half the
quantity that has fallen throughout the
producing areas of the county.
SAN DIEGO, March 29.— Showers
have continued at intervals this after
noon and evening, nearly half an inch
of,rain having fallen in this city dur
ing that period. In the country the
storm is generally heavier.
HOLLISTER, .March 29.— The rain
fall here last night was a half inch,
making 9.65 inches for the season. A
prosperous ! season is'assured. '
Rivers Are Still-. Rising.
Professor McAdie of the Weather
Bureau stated last night that the riv
ers in the northern part of the State
had been rising all day and would
rise gradually until some time to-day.
There is likely to be some rain to-day,
but probably not enough to percepti
bly affect the flooded district.
GALVESTON, Tex.. March 29, — Fou»
white men and one negro are dead
and a number of persons are severely
wounded as a result of a race war in
the lumber region, of Eastern Texas.
The dead are:
MARTIN SUROVAK (white), at
Montgomery.
TOBE McKINNEY (white), near
Hooks station.
HENRY BULLOCK (white), at Sils
bee.
FREDERICK HOPPBRT (white), at
Beaumont.
JOHN MAYNARD (colored), at
Montgomery.
The trouble began two or three weeks
ago when the lumber companies of
East Texas began systematically to rid
themselves of shiftless characters. This
was followed by one sypicious fire
after another, incendiarism prevailing
at nearly every mill of note in East
Texas and Western Louisiana.
Among the mills that suffered were
the four belonging to the Hudson River
Lumber Company and the King Rider
Lumber The guards at night
were quadrupled. Later men attempt
ed to fire the mills and were discov
ered by the guards, but made their es
cape. An investigation developed that
rags and other combustible material
saturated with oil had been used.
Later an attempt was made to burn
the town of Soulake, where several
shiftless negroes were discharged from
the oil fields a few days ago. This
was followed in rapid succession by the
lynching of John Maynard (colored) at
Montgomery, who paid with his life the
penalty of having, with two other ne
groes, attacked and robbed several lum
bermen, one of whom, Martin Surovak,
died from the effects of a beating.
The night before last Frederick Hop
pert, a watchman for a lumber mill
at Beaumont, was discovered myste
riously shot. Developments indicate
that he came to his death at the hands
of the negroes. Yesterday Tobe Mc-
Kinney, a white lumberman, was shot
and killed at Hooks station by Bob
Childress and George Odum, ne&roes.
A "retaliatory attack was begun by the
-whites and Childress was wounded. He
is now in jail. Odum cannot t* found.
Last night while Henry Bullock, Sid
Stewart and M. A. McNeil, white, were
returning home at SilsJSee they were
ambushed by a gang of negroes. Bul
lock was shot and killed 'and his com
panions were seriously wounded.
Arms and ammunition were. at once
ordered into East Texas by the whole
sale, hut the bad negroes took warn
ing and fled. Those of the colored race
with known good characters are being
protected, but danger is imminent to
those known to be profligate if they
can be found.

Yesterday was the California Club's
day' to shine— and it shone with the
light of a rare programme — an after
noon of elysian dreams and of dulcet
music— 'twas: Omar Khayyam day.
And the singers? Just ask any of the
800 guests what a rare joy Mrs. John
D. Slbley had prepared for them when
she devised: the plan of telling the tale
of the Persian dreamer to the sob of
exultation of music.
The programme was unfolded in the
auditorium of the Y. W. C. A. build
ing — the clubrooms wouldn't have held
the vanguard of guests, and the rooms
are of no mean proportions. Mrs.
George Law Smith, with her ac
customed grace, announced the fol
lowing entertainment: ; • v
. "THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAI*"
Act II, scene I. V
Act III. scene L -
Lady Teazle Mrs. James Monroe Gamble
! Sir Peter .Raymond Dean
A teas cycle "In a Persian Garden"
The words selected from the "Rubalyat"
of Omar Khayyam, the music com
posed by Liza Lehmann.
Scprano.. » Mrs. John D. Sibley
Alto ...Mrs. : Grace Carroll Elliott
Tenor .• Edward Xavler Rolker
Bass Homer Henle y
Miss MolHe Pratt at the piano.
As to the tantalizing Lady Teazle,
who, by the way, was smartly frocked
in modern garb, she was an alluring
tease, fascinating in her smart sallies
to the grumpy but adoring old Sir
Peter.
Then the psychological lyre was at
tuned and the mystic songs from the
Persian bard were sung in unforget
table manner, pdward Xavler Rolker
scoring an astounding hit in the solo,
"Ah! That Spring Should Vanish With
the' Rose."
Mrs. Sibley's "But if Soul Can Fling
the Dust Aside" was, by those of us
who decide for ourselves what we like
and what we doji't, pronounced the
gem of her numbers.
Mrs. Elliott and Homer Henley
shared honors in their recitative work,
and the quartet work was a joy — a
rare joy.
Let us hope that another day of like
quality (yes, and quantity, because it
wasn't soggy with weight) shall soon
be given us again. Mrs. Sibley, con
gratulations!
Hark, ye carfl wielders! Likewise
ye of tender spirit! ; The Nursery for
Homeless Children (now think what
that means) wants money and wants
it badly. Its present home on Mission
and Twelfth streets, though a model
of cleanliness and intelligent care, is
sadly inadequate for its needs. A new
home must be secured and it takes
money to get it. Now, listen and learn
how you may help to build that home
and at the same time indulge your pet
predilection, be it bridge or whist or
even plebeian poker, for on April 7 at
Native Sons' Hall a monster card
party will be given, an admission fee
to which will be charged. Tickets are
for sale at the home or by any of the
members of the board of directors.
This money (and -about 2000 guests
are expected) will bring benisons upon
the heads of those that helped. Will
you?
The regrular monthly meeting of the
Association of Pioneer Women of Cal
ifornia will be held in Golden Gate
Hall at 2 p. m. on Friday. April 1.
After the business Vneeting tea will
be served and a social hour will be
enjoyed.

I f°?r^ CALL READERS |
Seven remarkable pictures have been prepared especially for The
Call by its printing house, the American Colortype Company of
New York and Chicago, and one of these pictures will be issued
with The Call every Sunday in the order indicated.
"HIGHLAND SHEEP."
It Is the of a sup*rb painting by one of that world-famous family
of art creators, the Bonheurs. Aurutte Bonbcur is the author of the picture, which
tKjuaif the best work of his even more celebrated tleter. Rosa. This art piece will
bt- pivpn away. free, with each copy of Th« Sunday Call.
August* Bonheur, ln presenting "Highland Sheep" to. the world, made as fine a
contribution to the art pallery of tha age* as <Ud hla illustrious eister. Rosa., when
tiJi^ jiaimed that euperbly colored revelation of animal power and physical beauty.
"The Horee Fair." Both pictures are f»o perfect that they se*m to surpass the
powrr cf mere art. for they possess qualities of realism which actually fool the
eenses.
. Aug-arte's climb into fame waa even more arduous than his 6ister'i". for his very
narae handicapped him. In 18*5. w.-.e n all Paris was tajklng about the remarkable
c xhlbits ln the Salon by a young girl named Rosa Bonheur. who had elected to be-
come a peinter of animals, another Bonheur made an appearance in the galleries.
This time it was a man. Francois August* by name and a man ambitious to be a
raantrr of genre. His pretensions were laughed at. ' It was critically concluded that
the .Bonheur family, taught by the father, could produce only one phenomenon.
But the following year this genre painter exhibited a landscape which at-
tracted attention. In a few years more he was a landscape and cattle painter es-
' teemed but little less than his gifted sister. August* Bonheur found his successive
medals and* hiss red ribbon cf the legion. It is quite possible that the greater
fame cf his eirter overshadowed hie, and that he might have won a higher position
in art under another name.
"Highland Fhefp" Is probably the most noted canvas of all Bonheur"s art
career. It was the talk of the esthetlo world at the time of its first exhibition.
Now that sheep pictures have become a popular fad — almost to the extent of a
craze — the great paintings or this animal and its environment have doubled ln valuj
and large wns of money are paid for the mere privilege of copying the original
picture. All critics have conceded that Bonheur's "Highland Sheep" Is far superior
to the works cf all others who have made animal study their specialty. The only
1 artist who ever equaled him was his own sister.
"PLAYMATES."
E. Louyet's ••Playmates" Is a scene of home life which Trill appeal to all lovers
of children aad pets. It Illustrates, the sympathy which exists between children and
their animal playmate*, and suggests the charm which the Ingenuous play of the lit-
tle cnes raay bring Into home life. It shows also that imitation of what they have
observed in the lives of their parents influences in a remarkable degree their own ac-
tions. In putting the puppy to bed in her doll's cradle the little girl Is following the
? sample c? her mother's care for her little brother, which she has daily observed.
AlthtHiph her offspring seems to be an unwilling partner to the play, the canine mother
Sr>es not seem greatly concerned, for Bhe has doubtless been often associated with
ie children ln their games and knows that they mean no barm.
The picture is one which bespeak* the artist's cheerful temperament. Into a
commonplace scene he has Infused something of the sympathy which he must have
for the homely joyt cf domestic life. His color also indicates a genial fondness for
what is pleasing and cheerful. It is varied and brilliant, simple and unaffected and
not devoid of refinement. There is even a certain sublety in the placing of the blue-
rreen .in<i yellow-green note* of the cupboard and cradle together in the picture and
balancing them with the mass of the blue apron on the opposite side of the picture.
EITects cf studied arrangement are also to be found in the Judicious placing of the
various notes of rr-d. brown and yellow.
Th« works of this promising young artlrt are not yet familiar in this country,
as there Is- so great a demand that they are generally sold^-to collectors and dealers
as eoon as they ere completed, and he has frequently so many advance orders for
his pictures that his eustomen' have to wait many months before they can have the
satlyfartinr. of possessing one of hi« interesting productions.
His models are taken from hi« own household even the animals, which • he Is
f^nfl of Introducing into his compositions. His familiarity with them is unques-
tionably the secret of his remarkable success ln painting them.
"THE PASSING STORM."
Two favorite themes furnish subjects for the brush of Thomas Moran, K. A., the
artificial architectural beauty of Venice and the grandeur of American landscapes.
•"The Passing ?torm." which was painted on Long Inland, furnishes one of the most
beautiful and effective colored reproductions yet published. It is vigorous and yet
harmonious in colcr. dramatic ln effect and well balanced ln its composition. The
warm colur of autumn fcrowns and yellow contrasts with gray rocks and the rich
gr*"en« cf the Ewampy foreground, and above all is a sky full of movement and varied
ln Its colored effects.
It ie the emotional qualities in this, as well as In nearly all of Mr. Moran's paint-
ings, which have contributed much to their success, and yet underlying these there is
a foundation of convincing realism.
In "Th» Pacing Storm" it may be seen that the elements which make up the pic-
ture are reproduced with remarkable fidelity to nature, but at the same time by a
fapifr.t arrangement of masses cf light and <Jark oppositions of brilliant and sub-
du»d color, of broad. si:iiple mseees and intricate detail, the artist reflects his own
poetic trmprran-.cnt in its dramatic effect, wealth of color and technical ability.
Mr. Morin'f attention was first attracted to the possibilities of American" land-
scape In 1*71, when he accompanied the fnlted States Government expedition under Ma-
jor Powell to explore the Yellowstone country. His large painting: of the "Grand Canyon
of the Yellowstone," which wap produced shortly after, was purchased by the Govern-
ment. The painting is so truthful that geologists are able to detect and classify from
It the thousands of feet of canyon wall, and y<et the expression cf a feeling of eublim-
ity ii> po stror^r that it is difficult to believe that he has not idealised his subject.
He has since made several trips to the Rocky Mountains and has visited Cuba
and Mexico, and it may be truthfully said that no artist has done more to make
known to the world the splendors of American landscapes, whose artistic possibilities
he was cne of the first to appreciate.
i Thomas Moran. who is sometimes called the American Turner, was born ln Bol-
ton. Lancashire, England, ln 1S37. Went to Philadelphia with his parents at the age
of 7. He began his artistic career as a wood engraver's apprentice and was made an
FFso'-iate o? the National Academy ln 18S2 and academician in 1SS4. He Is a mem-
ber of the Society cf American Artiste and the Pennsylvania Academy.
"TREASURED MEMORIES."
Not all of th«» garlands of war are of laurel and palm, there are others
of withered and bitter leave* which do not crown the victors or repose on the
grama of tho^e who have given their lives for their country. They are worn
hy the women wha have inherited the leiracy of sorrow and loneliness through
•he death of a eon. a father or a brother ln war.
They cling- in their bereavement to anything which may keep fresh the mem-
ory of th«-Fe dear ones. Their letter*, portraits, anything they have worn or
owned are treasured as of priceless value, and on such a day as the one appointed
to honor the nation's dead they ceem to bring back something of the real pres-
ence cf the herf>ep who have fallen. .-•¦»-
To express these thcuchtu on canvas is the motive of Bdgar S. Cameron's
picture. "Treasured Mem<->rle«'."
It depicts an aged mother honoring the memory of a son fallen on a Southern
l^ttl^neH. by bringing cut his rusty saber and time-worn uniform to place them
!:> the rhsir he used to sit in as a boy, while she re-reads the letters whose con-
tents she knows by heart.
It is thus on the anniversary of hig death and Decoration day she performs
Filently and alcne what to her has become the celebration of a sacred rite. The
picture is cne fu!l of human interest and sentiment strongly expressed. It tells
its story simply and directly and at the same time it possesses artistic qualities
of a high order. It is admirably composed, effective, pleasing in color and care-
fully elaborated in its details.
Edgar S. Cameron, the artist who has painted this picture, is one of the most
prominent painters of " figure compositions in the West. Few men have the ability
to r>p.:r.t we:i to many different classes of subjects a? he. Ten years ago he was
paintirig military subjects, one of which received honorahle mention ln the Yerkes
prize competition. Then followed decoration for the World's Fair. The largest can-
vas v .e het= painted is a religious subject, 'The Youth of Christ." now loaned to
the fnicn League Club of Chicago. Two years ago he exhibited a striking picture
cf gla^t-bTowrs at work ln the red light of a blow furnace. This was purchased
by the Chicago Woman's Aid Club. At the Chicaro Artists' Exhibition this year h"s
showed an imrx-'i-tart marine painting. "The Voiceful Sea." which was painted
while the artlpt was returning from Paris last year, where he served as a mem-
ber of the international Jury O* the exposition of 1000. This picture was pur-
rhased by the Arche Club.
OsMe* painting these and Tiuntless penre and landscape subjects, Mr. Cam-
rrvrr. has found time to contribute occasionally articles on art to art publications
ani tc art as instructor at the Art Academy- As early as 1SSS he was an exhib-
itor m the Paris Falon. . . "
"IN THE PASTURE."
"In the Pasture." by Julien Jos. presents a rare combination of pictorial and
artistic rjuallties. In it the artist h*s displayed exceptional ability in three direc-
tions — as a tandscapist. a figure painter and an animal pa!nt«r. His varied talents
an- s« evenly balanced find fo harmoniously combined in this picture that it would
be a diffiTilt matter »o de^de which be has painted best — the. cattle, the young
1'fasa.nt woman who is caring for their wantf. or the landscape, which serves as a
s<-T»!n^ for both. It Las other qualities which are not the result of the artist's skill
a< a pairtT. but which are the expression of his thought and feeling.
Then* is a vigor and brilliancy to b* ©twerve<] ln th» effect of sunlight, and he
has given • vlvarity to the movements of the animals and the action of the figure.
In the grass and foliage of the landscape tliere is abundant detail, but it is
painted with a frank, sure touch. fr<e from any suggestion of labored uncertainty ln
his methods of painting. All this combines to give ln the picture an agreeable effect
of truth and lifelikeness.
The cattle are particularly well drawn *nd painted.
It has been said that pictures of horses are less ant to pitas* than representa-
tions of cattle or sheep, for the reason that horses are generally more closely ob-
srrvfd by the public, and defects in the drawing of these animals are more quickly
noted, while in paintings of cattle such defects are overlooked, provided there is
aeroeable color and a picturerque quality of roughness in the painting to conceal
th'-m. ' -
In this painting by Julien Jos there has been no attempt to avoid difficulties.
Forms are well defined, values are truthful- and colors well observed. There Is evi-
dence everywhere of the artist's comprehensive *tudy. from the blades of grass In
the foreground to details of the figure and the animals'.
There is a satlsfylrg sense of completeness, and yet he has shown how to EUb-
erdiriKte parts of his picture to gain unity of subject.
It is fccientlflc rather than emotional painting, and yet is not lacking ln feeling
and spirit. .
Julien Jos is a native of Behrium and has his studio in Brussels. He is a pupil
cf the celebrated cattle painter, Franz de Bcul. and Is, to some extent, a follower
of Julien Dupre.
He was awarded a silver mMal at the Brussels Universal Exposition, and medals
st exhibitions held in Ghent. Antwerp and other European cities. His work Is almost
as well known and appreciated ln America as in Europe.
COSTLY TOYS.
"Costly Toy«" la the title of the art supplement, by Charles Van den Eycken.
The proverbial playfulness of kittens is a favorite subject with painters who
chocs* their models from the domesticated branch of the feline tribe The fact
that the little animals have net been endowed with discretion in . their choice of
plavthings. along with their instinct for play, often leads them to dp much mis-
chief, and it is thle mischief which furnishes an Inexhaustible fund of mate-
rial ut>on 'which Fuch artifts as Eugene Lambert, Mme. Henrictte Ronner and
Charlt* Van den Eycken, t the painter of the original of this art supplement, have
drawn, in producing the pictures which are their lifework.
Other artists cf more serious temperament have used cats as models for rep-
resentations of the savage members of the came family. The anatomy of the do-
mestic cat U almost ider.tical with that of many of its wild cousins, and the fact
that the savage instincts of its ancestors have only a thin veneer of the domesti-
cation makes it a eimple matter for an artist to transform the household tabby Into
a tiger or lioness, as I>eiacroix frequently did. One needs only to observe a cat
drinking, eating cr stalking a mouse or sparrow to note the resemblance recalled
by Whittier. who displayed much of a painter's instinct in his description, in the
lines In "Snow Bound": "The cat's dark silhouette on the wall, a couchant tiger's
seemed *o fall."
In Fuch pictures as the one which is the subject of this notice there are the
elements of lively action, and a pleasing suggestion of Innocence and joyousness
which make them Justly popular. In Van den Eycken's painting there Is also
bright and agreeable color and skillful brush work. ¦ . . s>
Charles Van den Eycken is a Belgian of pure Flemish descent. He Is still
a vouae man. and has every prsspect cf becoming even more famous In his chosen
branch cf art than the celebrated Mme. Konner. whose pupil he Is. Hl» studio is
in Antwerp in the same building as that of his former instructor. During the last
decade his works have become well known in America, and the sale of his pictures
la this country is eteadily increasing.
"THE BIRTHDAY."
Cora Fredericka Freer's painting, "The Birthday." was the most "important
figure eompoettion exhibited t»- a. Chicago artist at the recent exhibition of Amer-
ican oil painting and sculpture at the Art Institute. It la the work which com-
bines the telling of a pleasing story with the , successful rendering of a most Inter-
esting effect of artificial lighting. The four nickering tapers on the birthday cake
illuminate the scene, which It one of tenderness and Intensity as well as of , fes-
The costumes of the little rtrl in whose honor the celebration is made, her
young mother and her comrade su»d guest furnish notes of colors, and the play of
the warm glow from th« tapers on these offers a problem which the artist has
solved tnoFt agreeably.
The expression on the faces of the participants in the pretty fete shows that
she "Is also a close student of character. A smile of love and contentment plays
over the feature* cf the mother at she cutt the cake; the little one looks on with
something of curiosity and wonderment in her Joy, while a look of patient ex-
pectancy plays over the features of her suest. • .
