THE QUAKER ARTIST. “ I tell tbee now, Piichard, that thee’Jl never get a cent of my money if thee keeps on with this devil’s work.” • The siKtaker was Friend Joseph Har- ri.s, and he held at arm’s length a small picture in water colors, the fe.atures of which were hardly discernible in the gloom of the winter morning. Friend Joseph bad been at the bam, as was his custom, to fodder the cattle and feed the horses before breakfast, and had discovered this bumble bit of art in a nook in the granary. He did not have to be told that it was his son Richard's work, whose inclination to such ungodly pursuits had been the distress of his parents’ lives. Fall of suppressed wrath Joseph burst into the kitchen where the family were waiting breakfast, and without preface addressi d his son with the threat which he considered the most dreadful he could use—that of disinheritance. It meant something, too, for in spite of his plain surroundings Joseph Harris owned 1 two hundred acres of land worth I ew-ily a liTiinired wed. Ufty dollars an I acre and bis visits to the county town on I the first of April of each year were not I to pay interest but to receive it. A tall, Etraight figure, he was nearing sixty years of age. but a.s vigorous as a youth, with quick motions and sharp black eyes, indicating a violent nature chained for life bv the strict discipline of the Society of Friends. His son Richard, now turned of twen ty ^o, was of a different mold, shoi t an.i stoutly built. His face at first sight seemed hea-vy and vacant, but this was in fact tho abstraction of the dreamer. His soft blown eyes, and hair clnstericg in thick curls over his low but broad forehead, made amends for his s-onicwhat commonplace feat ures. The moment his father entered the kitchen Richard felt that his secret labor had been discovered, but his anxiety was more for it than for him self. He rarely dared face his father's anger, for Joseph Harris, like many of his sect, made up in severity at home for the smooth and passionless exterior he maintained abroad. “ NVill thee give it to me, father ?” Said Richard, advancing toward the outstretched hand which held the sketch, while the hand’s owner contem plated it with unspeaKable disgust. Poor little painting ! It was a frag ment of an autnmn afternoon, during which Richard had been husking corn in “ the hill field ” and which bad abided in his memory clothed with the halo of a hundred day-dreams. There ■was a corner of a woods, the foliage half green, half shading into tints of brown and red. A rivulet leaving a piece of meadow still gay with autumn flow ers and green with late grass, flowed rippling and sparkling out of the sun light into the shade of the dying leaves. What courage and hope it must have I Richard followed in thought its waters as they flowed on to Chester creek and then to the stately Delaware river, and far out till they met the mighty ocean which washes the shores of all the ■worm. And as'be mecbanically pl-nnged his b-usking knife into tbe shucks and turned out the golden ears one alter tbe other, he humbly took this lesson to himself, as was his wont, and said: “ I, too, must have more courage, firmer hope. Why should not I go for ward in my study of ait with greater faith ? I must, I will.” And to fasten the vow he had painted two studies of this little piece of meadow as a constant reminder, snatching tbe time on First days and Fifth days, when his father and mother were at meeting, and he and Mose Riddle, the colored man, were left to look after the stock. One copy he had sent on a venture to a com mission house in New York, the other he had hidden in-the bam. ure, ard his anger wh* dc-p. He Lad agreed to give Richard a fourth .La.-c in the profits of the farm this vi-ar, ar d not on:y was this [minting busici' in nn^f^ly ainmecQt*nt, but a -*f . prerions time and a lot. of moui-v. It must be stopped. “ 111 put it where it descrvi ^ to go, and where thee will follow unlr- - th> turns thy ste[si from the world and iu? fellies. But the fire that thon wilt meet will l>e that which is not iiuenchi-d, TOd where the wo-m dietb not.” With these words, which Friend Harris spoke slowly and with that slight chanting intonation whiuh char I ^terizes the ntterances f the speaki-r.s ‘ in mtieting, the solemnity of which was i further increased by the use of the formal “thou’’ instea'l *of the u.snal I *‘ thee,” he stn/>|MiiJ to tii«> kiidion fireplace, wljoro u gooJly wocsl fire wus horning under tho crane, and striking the [licturo against tlie corner of the mantel{)iece tore a rugged sjilit through its c.-inter and threw the whole into the flames. In a moment it was a shriveled cinder. There are certain natnrea whose in herent strength can only be developed by a violent ehock. Full of latent [>ower, their weakness comes from a native humility. They distrust themselves through a genuine admiration of others. Such was Richard Harris. But the necessary shock had come. Ho gazoil a moment at the cinder, his face crim soned, but the severe discipline of the Society and the family exercised the sway that it usually does even on tho very young among Friends. “ E’atber,” be said, in a low and even tone, “I repeat what I have often told thee; I have no light that there is evil in painting; but as thee thinks there is, I shall bid thee and mother farewell to-day, and seek employment else where. I shall not ask thee for any share in thy estate.” Taking his hat from tho window-sill he pas-sed out of the kitchen door, leav ing hi.s father speechless with amaze ment at this rebellious utterance, and his mother—a poor weak woman, con stantly in misery between carrying out the severe rule of her husband whom she feared, and yielding to her tender ness for her boy whom she loved- wiping her tears without emitting any sound, either word or sob. As for hi.s two sisters they sat demure and motion less through the whole scone, at heart rather pleased at it, as they had no sympathy with their brother’s taste for forbidden arts, and thought him a queer, wasteful, uncomfortable member of the household. Moreover, though younger than he, they were not too young to see at once the pecuniary advantage to them of his renunciation of his share of the estate. Richard went toward the barn and cook a seat in a nook 0/ tbe oorn-rodiSoi- j jfack that was built along the side of the barnyard. He did not lee^bo cold raw air ol the early morning. His mind was too full of the step he was about to Cake and what had led up to it. Now or never he mnst quit the farm, re nounce the teachings of tbe Society, 'lirow aside tbe coat with standing col lar and the quaint broad-britamed black hat, give up tho plain language, reject the counsels of the venerable facers of meeting who would surely be appointed to visit him, and prove a recreant to tho revered precepts of Fox and Barclay. .411 this was meant by a pursuit of Lis strong bias for art. Why was he bom with it? Whence came it? These questions he had often asked himself. For six generations his ancestors had never touched a brash or palette; not a painting nor a statue nor a musical instrument nor any drama or work of fiction had been allowed in their houses. How had ho been created with a passion for color and form, with a love of poesy and music, which neither the dreary farm work nor the colorless life, nor all the frigid, deadening dis cipline of the Society could quench? Going back to his earliest memory he could recall that when four year.s old he was left for a few honrs at tho house of Mike Wallis, an Irish tenant on a neighboring farm, and that Mike’s wife bad kept him in the utmost bliss by showing him a colored print of the Virgin and the Infant, and telliiig him the pathetic history as it had pictured itself in her warm Irish heart. But what was the horror of his parents next day when he toddled into the room when they were at dinner and called = “ Mudder, mndder, come see Gou. His parents ran to the door f:ee what this strange appeal meant, and 10. there, on the floor of the front porch, chalked in rude but faithful outlines, were the Child, with rays of glory around his bead, and the Mother, by his side, holding a cross. He could still recall the scowl that came over his father’s face and his mother’s impetu- rnsh for a bucket of water and scrubbing-brush. Nor had he forgotten tnJviolent state aoU imxnoaiate »pank- ing lie himself received for his artistic endeavor. , -u His memory leapt till ho was a boy of ten, and to his intense delight at effecting a trade of a Barlow knife for a box of paints. Many an hour of joy bad they given him, hiding himselt in the garret of the old house, in the back part of tbe hay-muw near the dusty gable window, or in a little hut he bad built in the woods. But his prying little sister betrayed him one day, and not only was his treasure confiscated but he himself was tied to the bedpost by his mother and given such a whip ping as would have discouraged most youthful artists. Later in life, when he was too ola for such vigorous measures, many lec tures had he received on the frivolity of 1 1,- t 1 w! f.i.^.ily that bi-r own I'-.n -uTi' . .

I must act in mine by the light I have, not by theirs.” Her mother wisely avoided argument, trusting that the Spirit would enlighten her daughter in time. Leaving tho fodder stack Richard walked across the bare fields toward tho plain brick house which was Sib-, billa’s home. His mind was made up. He wonld go to Now York and devote himself to the study of art. He had saved since his majority about three hundred dollars. He had youth, strength, talent, love—was not that enough? Wonld .sibbilla approve of it? Would she make tho serious sacri fice it involved ? As he approached the house it was about 10 o’clock, and all the males were ont at work. Ho knocked at the front door, instead of the side door as nsnal, and Sibbilla hersolf opened it and gazed at him with considerable surjirise in her hazel eyes, quickly changing to an expression of pleasure, which Rich ard did not iail to note, and which filled him with both joy and anxiety. “ Why, Richard, what brings thee here at this Lour ?” was her exclama tion. “Sibbilla,” he said, “I wish to see thee,” and stepping in he closed the door, and they both stood in tho wide hall, obscurely lighted by the transoms at each end. - Ho parish a moment *0 . cover his cdbtroJ, and theil_3poR®_™^pi lECoS ' a Bofteneil a Would p ~t- w4»y«.

Dauenhouer’n Lif?ti Yakutsk. Mrs. Danenhower b« received a long letter from her son, Lieutenant Dan enhower, of the Jiacnette explor ing expedition, dtted Yakutsk, Siberia, December 30, la81. It contains no news which has nol be«n anticipated bv telegraphic dispatches, but it gives some interesting details with regard to tho life of tho .Teaniibtts survivors at Yakutsk. In the tetter Lieutenant Danenhower says: We are passing tbe time quietly but impatiently. It is daylight here at about 8 A. M. got np aavlbgve breakfast at a little hotel that » handy. Tne forenoon I spend reading a Httle, writinjg a little and in attending to any busi ness I may happen to have on hand. Abont 2 1’. M.

As I have told yon before, I have found nice people in every part of the world that I have visited, and this place is by no means an exception. Last evening, for instance, we spent very pleasamtly at the house of a Mr. Gorreikoff, an Irkutsk ntarchant, who entertained us verv welL Hia wile gen with it-, lively n-iti is and rigor of thi- Arctic wint- r.

If il comes from a separate boiler, aav in the baggage car, and on account of a broken wbo-l or other trouble the baggage car has to be cut out, then the heat supply has gone, and any single car which bad to be hide-tracked or left waiting for another train on another road would leave no heat as soon as separated from the train. Every car must have its osm source of heat. Tests are now going on for beating the trains by a small 1 boiler under each car, which, in case of j collision, would tumble off and not set tho car on fire. * Tho superintendent claims that the road has spent 812,(>00 in experiments on heating oars, bat the subject is surrounded with many | difiiculties. It had acquired a kind of sanctity to ... . him, and each tree had become a sym- such tastes and the wickedness of min- bol of seme rebuff or danger he was a-. fated to encounter in his future life. He had, moreover, described it to Sib billa Vernon, and had promised this sole confidante of his aspirations that he wonld bring it over some time and let her see it. But Sibbilla lived two miles away, and as her parents were also strict members of meeting, who regarded every work of ait as profanity, th& would have to be managed with due caution. Richard’s first impulse, therefore, was to secure the picture. But his totbev bad a double cause of displeas- istering to them. • u- These scenes passing through his memory convinced him that it was vain to battle with such inflexible rules, and that to be free he must leave the farm and all its associations. There was but one which had really held him. This was Sibbilla Vernon. The daughter of rigid parents, her mother even a “ public friend,” whose voice at monthly and quarterly meet ings was familiar to all members of the Society, Sibbilla was a not unusual type of the advanced thought of her sect. Calm, self-possessed, clear-headed, she shall have to give up my naembership in the Society, as thee knows. Father says he will leave me nothing if I do, and I know thy mother agrees with him. But I am not afraid. All I ask is that thee approve of my decision and will become my wife as soon as I am able to offer thee a home.” At that supreme moment of resolve all the strength which for generations had been nurtured by the noble Quaker theories of self-reliance, all the passion which for generations had been muffled aud smothered under the narrow Quaker system of formality and repression, burst forth and were' expressed in the face of bibbilla Vernon. She seemed to rise in statnre, and looking him fall in tho eyes, laying one hand on his arm and paskng tlie other round his neck, she said: “ Richard, I will como to thee then, or I will go with thee now.” The tone was low and the words with out haste, but he who heard it felt in his inmost soul that no oath could be stronger. “ Thank God and thee,” he uttered, and for the first time in their live.s each felt the magic meaning of a kiss of love. Seated on tho wooden “settee,” which is the common furniture of the country hall, ho told her his father’s words and action and his own unaltera ble determination to seek his future in art. It was agreed that they should be married by a magistrate as soon as Rich ard should have an income of seven hundred dollars a year. Full of quiet joy he wont home, an nounced his intended marriage and im mediate departure, packed his trunk, and told Mose to have the dearborn ready at 6 o’clock in the evening to take him to the station. After the 5 o’clock supper tho members of the family maintained almost entire silence, hie mother quietly crying, his father reading the “Book of Disciplme,” favorite literature. ■ The dearborn drove up with Mo^, who had been to the station with the milk, and stopping at the country store, which was also the postoffice, had brought a letter , for Richard. It was rather unusual for any member of the household to receive a letter, therefore Mose announced it with considerable emphasis, addressing his master by his first name as is the custom in strict families: Joseph, hy’nr’s a letter for Rich ard. Hiram sez it’s a letter from York, and ’peats as if it mont be on bizness.” Joseph took the letter, and resisting a strong inclination to open it passed it to his sA. It was from the firm in New York to whom he had sent a copy of his picture, and it read: New Yobk, January 18, . Deab Snt: We have the gratification of informing you that the stndy you sent us on sale has attracted the atten tion of cue of our patrons, to whom we have parted with it for S500. Deduct ing comm., stor’ge, insur’ce, del’y, etc., as per inclosed statement, leaves a net bal. of $372.62, for which find our c’k herewith. You mention a duplicate of the study yet in your possesion. We will take that at the same figure, cash on deliv ery, and will give you an order for five more studies to be completed within a year. Respectfully, Smiles, Wiles & Oo. As he read this letter the check fell from his hand on the table. The sight of one we liaVO Francisco. Yakutsk is a city cf 5,000inhabitants The houses are built of wood, and are not painted. The streets are very wide- and each bouse has a large yard or court. The principal trade is in furs. In summer a great deal of fresh meat is sent np the river. Daring nine months of the year snow and ice abound. In tho winter the thermometer falls to sev enty degrees below zero. Since our arrival it has been tixty eight degrees below, and to-day it only thirty-five de grees, or thereabouts. In the summer the temperature rises as high as ninety- five degrees Fahrenheit, hut the nights are cold. There are many horses and cows in this vicinity. The natives, the Y’akutzs, eat horse nKat, hut the Rus sians eat beef and Venison. Potatoes, c.iobage and a few other vegetables, a few berries, wheat and rye are grown in this vicinity. There are a few sheep and poultry also. Dr. Kapello has examined my left eye and he says that a very ordinary opera tion is required to make it a very eflS- cient eye. What is called an “artiflei.al [lupil” will have to be cut in the mem brane that now clouds the vision. He advises me to wait until I got home, for after the operation I will have to remain in a dark room for a mi-inth or two. My general health is excellent, I am stout and hearty. Of course there is very little Ameri can news in this far-away place, but I have been able to pick up a few bits of it here and there. The death of Gar field is a topic often mentioned, and from the accounts here I learn that he wai shot by Gniott on the train near Long Branch. A great deal of interest auvl sympathy is manifested by the Russians. Last evening I sax a Tomsk newspaper, which said that the Alliance had made a cruise in ssarchof the Jean- nette,and had reached latitude eighty degrees fifty-five minutes north on tbe west coast of Spitzbergun. Had onr ship held together ten (twOf; years she -wonld probably have drifted!i vnt in that vi cinity. ’About 900 m^M south of this place there lives an Englishman named Lee, and from him 1 hope to learn a great deal cf news. The proportions in which foreign countries have contributed to Mormon- ism are shown in the following figures, which are compiled from the censuses of 1870 and 1880: « 1'^"®- Uotii in Hngtsnd Boni In Sooilsnd Dora in Denmark 4,!'r; Bom in Sweden l.TttO Bora in Norway CIS Dora in Switzerland •'>i_D Bom in Germany 1S«(I. 19,1-'.» n -zui .1,7.'>ii ilS 1.2H (D 1,010 15H KSO England, it will be seen, makes the chief contribution to Mormonism, and next to England come those Bcan lina vian countries to whose people the Anglo-Saxon stock is close akin.

Strange as it may seeiH, says one writer, the poultry in terests of the country, at l the poultry and dairy, which go together generally, though separated in this figuring, is greater than the beef trade.

Then think of the chickens, the tur keys, the geese and other fowls sold there, and the eggs »cd fowl sold in Chicago and throng^nt the country. This, however, is notaing compared to the dairy interest smee the creamery and co-operative syatem has been intro duced, and which is now in vo)^e eveTvwhfero in Illinois, Iowa and ^ is- oonsan- It seems curions bit it is a fact that there are 10,000 more men than women in Utah, name is lliot they rt:i^.buVrwa'ta,”an-rthedecora‘aon » performed by children andch.^p worx I men of all kinds.
