’ THE ART OF ONE MAN. .
Mr. Settles' “Den” of Curios and An-
tiques to Be Opened.
Houston Chronicle.
Within the next few days the doors of
Houston’s first exclusive art store will be
thrown open to The public and an oppor-
tunity given to connoisseurs to fairly
revel ini all' that is most artistic in paint-
ings, in oil and in water colors, Rem-
brandt etchings, moldings, bric-a-brac,
curios, antiques, Oriental tapestries, pic-
turesque Indian basketry, the like of
which was never seen here before.
The new store, or rather “art den,” for
that is what in reality it will be>, is located
in the Mason bundling, No. 717 Mata street,
and Mr. G. Bowden, Settle, a gentleman
of most aesthetic taste, is the originator
of the, in many ways, novel and delight-
ful scheme.
In an interview with Mr. Settle yester-
day he said: “Tou see, we are firmly con-
vinced that there are enough lovers of
artistic things in Houston to make our
efforts' worth while. Our place will be
just a little niche set aside from the great
arteries of commerce/ where patrons of
the arts can come and spend a few hours
when they find they are jaded from the
rush and energy of their day.
“If they are lovers of paintings in either
oil or water colors, drawings in black and
white, or etchings, why we will have just
what they want. If their passion is for
antiques, we can thrill them with things
centuries old, things so quaint they seem
literally creations of one’s romantic
fancies of the wares which might have
been used by the beaux and belles of King
Arthur’s circle. Should they be devotees
of the seductive tapestries of the Orient,
why, we can bring joy unlimited to them,
for we have a goodly lot of exquisite-
things from, the land of the chrysanthe-
mum. Indeed, we shall ertfiteavor to make
our Japanese corner so complete that for
the time being one will forget he's.not
really in the land of the mikado.
“In fine, it’s our aim to have such a
place as will appeal to the taste of the
super-critical in things artistic.”
Pyrography will be a feature of this art
shop. The effects wrought in wood and
leather which will be shown will be worth
a visit to this store. ,
Mr. Settle, manager of the Houston Art
company, is a Galvestonian of social
prominence.

Explosion of Molten Metal in Penn-
sylvania Furnace Does Fearful
Injury to Workman.
Lancaster, Pa., April 27.—By an explo-
sion of molten mietal five men were hor-
ribly burned, two of them probably fatal-
ly, at the Vesta furnace at Mariette early
todiay.
The men were engaged) at the cupola
preparatory to a cast when the accident
occurred and th§y were literally showered
with molten metal. Fellow workmen ran
to V-eir -assistance and tore the burning
clothing firom them. The victims were:
Da,vid Apple-in, burned from head) to
feet, will probably die.
Thomas T. Kiseling, burned on back
and face, will- lose his eyesight and chance
for recovery is doubtful.
Winfield Simmons, left side and stomach
burned.
William Eberly, colored, arm, face and
side burned.
Charles Harris, colored, foot and ba,ck
burned.
The accident was caused by a wet pro-
jectile being shot into the cupola.
THE WEATHER.
The local weather man predicts unset-
tled weather for tonight and tomorrow,
with brisk southerly winds. Unsettled
weather in reality means any old kind of
weather. It may rain pitchforks and blue
blazes, or the sun may send its rays down
ri
upon the earth uninterrupted by any sort
of a cloud and still the forecast will be
verified. To a man ’up a tree the map is-
sued today would make it appear the
chances are more favorable, for a continua-
tion of the weather on tap today than for
any radical change. There Will not be any
decided change in the temperature and the
thermometer shold play around a point
that marks-very pleasant weather. Light
frosts were reported from Cairo, Ill., and
Memphis.
FOR GALVElS'TON AND VICINITY’,

Unsettled weather tonight and Tuesday;

MOTHERS DON’T SCOLD.
This Information Will Prove a Boon
to Galveston Mothers.
If the juvenile member-©f your family
lacks control over thA/kidney secretions
during the night, do not 'gc&M or whip the
child. The coating oF lining- of the blad-
der is inflamed and the' secretions are so
full of acid that they irritate that organ,
and bed wetting is thetresult. The hun-
dreds of testimonials from every state in
the union, all declaring childrenh vae been
cured of this weakness 15y; the use of
Doan’s Kidney Pills, prove atdeast in their
cases the remedy did. what was promised,
namely, stopped the so-palled habit. Here
is proof for Galveston mothers.
Mrs. Charles A. Swenson, o£r^24 avenue I,
says: “For five years a child of ours was
afflicted with a weakness Of the kidneys
and bladder. The trouble was very dis-
tressing and annoying, and we made every
effort to relieve her, treating with different
physicians and using many remedies, but
she. if anything, grew worse,'i especially at
night. Not only had she a weakness of the
kidneys, but she. complained-’a great deal
of terrible headaches, iwas languid, and
had very little energy. Doan’s Kidney
Pills were recommended to me and I sent
to J. J. Schott’s drug store, on Market
street; for them. I gave her one pill at a
dose three times a day. A few days’ treat-
ment showed? a great improvement, and
when she had finished the box she was
completely cured. She just said to me the
other day that she had not been troubled
with headaches since she took Doan’s Kldi
ney Pills. They certainly are fine. I have
recommended them to others and will al-
ways do sb.”

absence of faith cures that disease.
LE HIGH LIFE CLOTHING.
Some Hints as to Paris Spring Fashions
for Men.
Paris- Letter to Pall Mall Gazette.
Now that the trees whtch border the
Champs Elysees are sprouting into green,
young Paris looks ficir vernal noveilties in
dress, and; finds them in the “Englis-ch”
shops uponi the boulevards. Of the ladies’
fashion I will say nothing, save that they
are charming, but those, of young Paris-
ians of the other sex caM- for a word of
commemt. To- begin with, they are very
English. We know this from the labels in
the boulevard shop windows, where
shirts, ties, tirousering's anfd coat materials
bear weird inscriptions of this sort:
“Schirtiings de Lo-ndres/’ “Cravates du
high-life,” “Struggle>-for-llfers'.” There
are odd-Looking walking sticks' with sil-
ver-banidied) handles, “Faux-cols fashion-
afolest,” and a great deall moire nomen-
clature of the same kind.
Everything must wear an English name,
if it is to be sold, and in the shop win-
dows the labels are the quaintest portion
of the novelties. But when he is- dressed
a 1’angtlaise, young Paris would attract a,
crowd in Bond street. He belongs, I
fancy, mainly- t'o the shopkeeping class,
for he is rarely to be seen abroad except
on Sundays, and he wears, with a light
heart, a long frolck coat with a velvet col-
lar, brown, boots, a billy-cock hat, and a
green tie, which flaps in the spring breeze
above the plaited purple shirt. His collar
is “stand up turn down,” and even more
“struggle-fo-r-lifer” (if this1 trio- of words
means anything at all) than is his cane;
but tell him that he is not dressed in the
latest English fashion, and he will laugh
at you. A little later in the season we
shall see Mm in white flannel trousers
with a quarter-dneh of black braid down
the sides, but now he wears black a,nd
white; checks. His waistcoat is cut low,
and if he wishes to be “very Peekadeelee1.-
strit,” he tucks a silken, handkerchief of
flaming red into- it, as though he meant to
dance at Kensington town ha.II.
It is not easy to get quite British clothes
or small accessories in Paris, except at
truly British, shops, and I remember being
tolld last year, when I protested against
shrieking patterns a.ndi quaint shapes, that
precisely similar costumes had been made
for “the two- most fashionable London
cdtillion leaders, Sir Wilfrid Lawson and
milor’ HUcks-Beach!” I fancy continental!
notions of our countrymen are gathered
from caricatures more often than from
the-'Simon Pure, though he, alas, is often
laughable enough when Easter brings him
over in his thousands.
CHINA ANGERS
RUSSIAN BEAR
Refuses Flatly to Allow Muscovites
to Continue Occupation of
Manchuria Territory.
London, April 27.—Official announcement
is made here that China has- notified the
court at St. Petersburg of its formal re-
fusal of Russia’s dlemandlsi in Manchuria,
and that Muscovite troops- must evacuate
that territory by June 1 at latest.

Prince Ching, grand secretary, protesting
against two features of Russia’s proposed
Manchurian agreement, which are con-
sidered) particularly antagonistic to Amer-
ican interests.

a Selfr-Mad-e Father.

able fun of. Am going to get a( new suit.
Will send you bill. Tours'—Jim.

the boys do it. I am keeptag away from
whisky as you suggest. Have you ever
tasted creme da- menthe? It settles your
dinner. Yours.—Jim.
Dea<r Pop: You are way off on temper-
ance question. Beer is the great leveler.
If we all dra^ik beer there would be no
drunkards. I got away with ten bottles
last night. Dead ealsy. Yours.—Jim.
Dear Dad: Would you care if I got
married? I was introduced to a lovely
girl last night. She is Older than I, but
a few yea,rs -don’t matter. What allow-
ance can we count on from you? Wire
answer.—Jim.
Dear Father: If you have not yet an-
swered my last postal, don’t bother. Af-
fair all off. She- went back on me in most
shameful manner. After all, she wa^ only

at Buffalo, Kans.
Buffalo, Kan.,JApril 27.—A north bound
Missouri Pacific stock train crashed into
the rear end of a work train just north
of thlsi town at 7 o’clock last evening and
11 men were killed and 25 injured. Ten of
the injured, it is believed, will die.
All the dea,d are Greeks and Italians
save one, Peter Fry, -an American. The
work train consisted of flat cars and a
caboose, all filled. The men on the flat

man in the caboose escaped. The work
train was backing into town/ for the night
and running at gt>od) speed. The heavy
freight engine1 dlid) not leave- the track, but
plowed) through the work train, throwing
it off the track, leaving little of it except
the car wheels; anidi kinidling wood. Doc-
tors from Buffalo, assisted by the town,
people, did heroic work among the Injured
until the wrecking train with surgeons
arrived. The dead) andi injured were taken
to Coffeyville and the latter will be tem-

The scene of the wreck for several hours
looked like a battlefield, with dead men
strewn? about upon, the ground, where
they had been left after being taken from
the wreck.

AS' TO TIHE; “AMERICAN MAN.”
A Protest Against His; “Counterfeit Pre-
sentment” as Pictured.
New York Mail and Express.
Before a myth passes into a parable and
the parable becomes; history, we wish to
enter our protest again-st the American
man- of the magazines, the cartoons; and
the tailors’ posters. We say the American
man, for, although there- are any number
of American men- in reality, there is only
one American man in the perio-di-cals and
fiction) books of the time. He is the long-
legged, broadl-shouldered, square-featured,
phlegmatic-faced young man of two or
three and twenty whom- several certain
popular artists and a host of imitators
have been drawing tor 15 years' or more.
This particular type of young man has
no existence in fact, and as a piece of
fiction he is a subtle but sweeping libel
o-n all American men. He is so supremely
uninteresting, so hopelessly stupid, so
painfully sel'f-consc’ous andi so infernally
vain that his pictured likeness is enough
to Svamp the fashionable circle which he
adlorns as veritably “Le monde du l’-on s-’en-
nuie.” He is prettier than we Americans
of.^real life, but then, some of the rest of
us claim for ourselves vivacity, intelli-
gence to the verge of shrewdness, some
sens-e <of humor, some perception that
“there are others.” In these respects the
rest of us- differ—and) thank God- therefor—
from this- bovine phlegmatic altogether in-
sufferable lay figure in evening clothes.
What the object of the school of artists
that have created) this stupid' Franken-
stein is, is obvious. They have tried to
draw a- Greek godl in trousers; they have
given us a stevedore in spiketail's. This
young man you would never imagine in
any scene requiring fire, pass-ion, initia-
tive. His countenance betrays the fact
that he tries to think, but gives it up.
There is no evidence, of interest in exter-
nal things in it; it might be called in-
trospective, save that clearly there is
nothing inside worth looking at. Intellec-
tually the young man is pathetically inar-
ticulate. He is a coal-heaver with the
correct manner. Such a. man men dodge
instinctively and women find impossible.
He is socially helpless.
The paradoxical thing about the Amerh
can man of the magazines is that, with
al his thews ana sinews, there is some-
thing feminine% about him. He is not a
man's man; he does- not enjoy Kipling. A
sarcastic Englishman has pretende-d to
discover that in America as- the girls are

growing boyish, the men are growing
girlish. Unquestionably this is a gener-
alization from, the magazines. The Amer-
ican they picture is a sublimated majni-
miiliner with a pink shirt waist and dec-
orative socks.
