Frederick Vegln, the noted American
artist, living In Dusseldorf, Germany,
and who was on a visit to this country
last fall spending a abort time In At
lanta with his slater, Mrs. Alfredo
Rarlll, has been officially commissioned
to paint a full length llfe-slme portrait
of the empress of Oermany for the
rlty'hall In Elberfeld. He haa lately
completed a portrait of Bltmarck and
It has been said that one of the best
tests of a child's book It that It shall
bo Interesting to grown-ups. If this
be true, Evaleen Hirin'* recent contri
bution to Juvenile literature I* quite up
to the mark. As with ''The Roses of
Bt. Elisabeth" (the first of a new series
published by L. C. Page & Co., Bos
ton), "Gabriel and the Hour Book," Is
equlsltcly Illustrated by Adelaide Ever
hart, whose artistic touch will doubt
less double the sale of this book, as It
did with tho other.
The etory Is laid In the time of Louis
XII, of France. "In those day*—It was
four hundred years ago—printed books
were very few, and Almost unknown
to most people, for printing presses
hud only been Invented a few years,
and so by far the greater number of
books In the world wero still made by
the patient labor of skillful hands; the
work usually being done by the monks,
of whom there were very many at that
time. These monks, or brothers, hav
ing more time and more learning than
most other people of those days, made
It their chief work to preaervo and
multiply all tho books that were worth
keeping. These fhey wrote out on
parchment and then ornamented the
pages with auch beautiful painted
border* of flowers and blrdi and saints
and angsts, and such lovely Initial lat
ter*, all In bright colors and gold, that
to this day large numbers of the beau
tiful books made by the monks are
etui kept among the choicest treas
ure# of the libraries of the world. Now
of alt the Illuminated books for which
tho Abbey of Bt. Martin's had become
so famous, none were quite so exqui
sitely done na those made by Brother
Stephen."
A little peasant boy, Gabriel, was
one of the noted Postmaster General
Stephen tor the city hall of Remscheld.
There are a number of orders awaiting
him In New York and Philadelphia,
and after the empress haa arranged her
detee for sitting* he msy pay this
country 'another visit.

At the Casino.
Brlndamour, Jallbreaker nnd hand
cuff king, has ably demonstrated to the
people of Atlanta that ho Is an "es
capist" of no mean ability. His work
with the handcuffs Is amazing and hie
wonderful escape from an Iron cel!
Into which he haa been locked with his
hands and feet securely fastened to the
bars 1*’little short of being a miracle;
An effort will be made to have this
wonderful man make an attempt to es
cape from the city Jail during hi* etay
In Atlanta. He ha* already eecaped
from over four hundred and seventy
prisons and hie moat remarkable ‘ feat
Was hi* escape from the great Sing
Sing prlion In New York etate.
The Marvelous Andrees In thought
transmission do an act that Is equally
as mystifying to the public as that of
Brlndamour’i. This talented couple
Is from Europe and are far In advance
of the ordinary mind reader! we have
had before them. They answer any
and nil questions propounded by the
audience without even seeing the pa
per upon which the questions nre writ
ten.
Early and Cate, singing comedian*,
are most entertaining. They are full
of high class humor and thtlr singing
Is most acceptable a* they are both
possessed of fine, rich voices that
blend most harmoniously.
Milts and Morris, the minstrel maids,
do a most finished black face act that
Is replete with good singing and danc
ing. and 3Ilss Jessie DoWelse, with her
trick playing upon the violin and banjo
pleases all classes. The work of that
funny acrobatic team, Aldo and Amour,
on the horlxontal bar I* very amusing
and gains for them much applause.
Despite the ratny weather large houses
