This kind of descriptive power of his own feelings and Judgment of the Ger mans and Immoral conditions of tho present generation In general he gave expression to so rapidly that his audi ence half the tlmo virtually was breath less trying to follow him without miss ing anything.

The document, which Is In the posses sion of th Ilosenbneh Galleries, com missions Willlnm T. Franklin as secre tary to the Pcaco Confercnco held in Paris In 17S3. It Is written by William T Franklin, who was acting nt that time lis secre tary tn his grandfather, and the com- inlKsinn Is signed first hy Franklin and then by John Jay. under date of Octo ber 1. 1782. and later on through the next enr hy Henry Laurens and John Adams, two other members of tho pcaco commission. Benjamin Franklin was n ory busy man and his habits were not too or derly. It was seriously urged that while on olUclal mission ho should make uso of a secretary so that diplomatic papers should not fall Into enemy hands. Frank lin disregarded theso urglngs for a time, declaring that he did not bcle In secret diplomacy, but when hn left tills country, in 1770, he took with him his slteeii-ear-old grandson as his per sonal secretary. When the commission was given to William Templo Franklin the young man was only twenty-two j ears old. "To all whom these presents shall come, Benjamin Franklin and John Jay Bend Greetings," begins tho document, which Is of folio size and wiltten with a fine pen, and then It goes on to say that on June If. 1781.

Specialty Shop cOriainationi M'KENZIE STATUE SHOWN IN ART CLUB Sculptor's Work Rejected by Fine Arts Academy Given Place of Honor Centering the south wall of the Art Club, whero It dominates the other ex hibits. Dr. R. Talt McKenzle's statue of the-Rev. Dr. George Whlteflcld. noted evangelist, which was rejected by the Academy of tho Fine Arts becauro It was "Impossible to handle," has been given tht place of honor. Incidentally, tho Art Club exhibit, which opened today and comprises somo ninety works of Doctor McKcnzle, noted as a sculptor, furnishes something of u refutation of the claim of the Academy that the Whltcfleld statue could not bo handled. Although It Is nine feet high and weighs H00 pound", tho Image was car ried up tho narrow stairway of the Art Club by twclvo movers without" Injuring the walla or marring tho woodwork. With It Is the original plaster sketch from which Doctor McKenzlo worked, Matue Kloquent of Torce Tho giant statue Is eloquent of the force and power of tho evangelist, Tho right arm, outthrust. Is symbolic of tho exaltation of tho man, tho very dra peries of the clerical sleeves carrvlne out the Impression, which becomes stronger as one gazes at tho facial ex pression that of a man convinced he Is the messenger of things not of this earth. The left hand, resting upon a Blhlc. Is clenched as though seeking strength.! Altogether the pose gives to the man an enormous flow of pouer and self-bellef. Tho exhibit sres well to show the remarkable ersatlllty of the sculptor. There arc the studies of'nthletes, In cluding tho noted "Joys of Effort" me dallion, carrying the suggestion of lrllo force and power which, In another way, dominates tho Whlteflcld statue. Then there Is tho "Laughing Children" fountain, erected as a memorial to Mrs. Rosamond J. Mallery ; the Boy Scout memorial planum (nirtly finished) and the Boy fcoul statuette, which brings out another hide of their creator. Oilier Notable Works i Tho "Youthful Fiatiklln," Ingenious 'of conception and carrying with It tho Imagination of tho sculptor. Is still an other which appeals. Then there are the portraits of Dr. S Weir Mitchell, Dr. W. W. Keen, of St. George Drum mond and Kathleen I'arlow. The latter, shown for tho first time, is likened by some who hse seen tho exhibit to Sar gent In Its effort to show the soul of a musician. Indicative of the rense of humor pos sessed by Doctor McKenzic Is tho relief of Joseph Penncll with a buzzing bee behind him The Idea undoubtedly Is Inspired by Mr Pennell's untiring activ ities in developing public Interest In arlous fields of art.

Just as tho firemen arrived the build ings In the Immediate vicinity of the factory were shaken by an apparent ex plosion, which shattered the windows and sent gii" ' flsmcs through them.
