CONSPIRATORS
In drawing girls Charles Dana Gib-
ion was fond of varying his type.
"The Gibson Girl" whom the maidens
of America have accepted as their
collective portrait and to whom they
have been trying to live up ever since
she was hailed as a type was the
artist’s ideal of what a woman's face
should be. Just before bidding fare-
well to the ' American Girl" Gibson
told the writer the idea that the girl
who is now his wife was the model
from which he had drawn his pictures
was utterly erroneous; the contrary
was true he said: he had formed in
his mind an idea which he drew over
and over again and when he met Miss
Langhorne he realized that at last he
had found his ideal woman; so be
wooed her and won her. But
those who are familiar with Gib-
son's work must know that he drew
many types of woman only one of
which could by any possibility have
been his ideal.
The picture that accompanies to-
day's paper shows a type that is
rather rare with Gibson —the langu-
rous. Oriental beauty.
‘Conspirators" is the name he gave
it It shows a dark handsome wom-
an and a Cupid. In intimate confer-
ence the little God's arm around her
neck and his lips close to her gar.
that she alone may hear the secret
plans he is suggesting to her. It is a
sample little drawing and it Involves
no deep thought to comprehend for
woman and Cupid have ever been con-
spirators. and their plots are as po-
tent today as they were when Delilah
inveigled Samson to his ruin.

! than to portray lights and shadows
by means of masses of graduated
lines for roundness and perspective
must be of the outline but this must
be absolutely true; It cannot waver
be uncertain or ragged. To produce
such a figure as this Cupid ft must
be drawn first pencil and outlines
carefully considered rubbed out and
redrawn until the artist Is thoroughly
satisfied: then the shadows should be
drawn lightly in pencil after which
the outline may be drawn in ink
finely where the lights come bnd
heavily where there are shadows. But
this method Gibson has succeeded
here In giving us In outline a Cupid
whose flesh is round and soft He
has suggested shadows here and there
around the outline to increase the ef-
fect and has heightened It by draw-
ing the hair in sharp straight lines
which makes the delicate curves of
the body seem ever rounder.
The woman's face Is an admirable
study. Its features are consistent and
all of the Oriental type. His model
might have been a beautiful Jewess.

THE WEEK AT THE
STATE CAPITAL
Heads of Departments Asked for Estimates of
Appropriations Needed for Next Two Fiscal Years
None Needed for Support of State Penitentiaries
Special to Tne uight
Austin Tex. Sept I.—A request is-
sued yesterday by the comptroller to
the heads of the various departments
asking them for an estimate of the
appropriations w-hlch will be needed in
their different departments for the
two fiscal years. As soon as this in-
formation is received by the com-
ptroller it will be incorporated in the
annual report of the comptroller to the
governor.
As has been stated here before In
these columns the different depart-
ments have been busy closing up the
accounts for the fiscal year ending yes-
terday. The new appropriations for
the fiscal year beginning today will
now be available but not to pay any
debts incurred during the past fiscal
year.

Forme- State Senator E- A. Atlee
of Laredo was here yesterday on busi-
ness with the land department of the
treasurer's office. He stated that the
country down on the Rio Grande is
full of homeseekers and prospective
laud buyers. The railroads he said
are giving special rates to all those
who care to go there at this season
and inspect the condition of the coun-
try.

Ooi. W. B. Anderson state pur-
chasing agent was seen yesterday re-
garding the report from San Antonio
that he would probably be an appli-
cant for re-appointment as state pur-
chasing agent under the Campbell
administration as it is well known
that Col. Anderson has always been
an ardent supporter of the Palestine
candidate. Col. Anderson declared
that it was much too early to discuss
the matter and the reports that he
would be a candidate were unauthor-
ized. He admitted that his friends
at San Antonio his old home were
urging upon him to submit his name
to the new governor for reappoint-
ment. but he has not decided what he
will do in the premises.

State Insurance Commissioner Clay
has begun the preparation of his
forthcoming annual report and the
force in this department will from
now on devote their time in compiling
this report The report will show the
new and old companies doing busi-
ness in Texas also other data regard-
ing Insurance business in Texas this
year as compared with last year.
Prof. H. H. Brasher superintendent
of the blind institute yesterday re-
cured a deposit warrant from the
comptroller’s department for the sum
of $467.90 and deposited this amount
In the treasury department? This
amount being the result of sales to
other state Institutions by the boys’
industrial department. Tift broom
factory at the blind Institute is one of
the leading industries at that Institu-
tion.

Comptroller J. W. Stephens accom-
panied by his wife and daughter left
yesterday for Groesbeck to spend a
week or two.
Prof. R B- Cousins state superin-
tendent of public Instruction returned
yesterday from Mexia where he has
been on official business.
The state printing board was in ses-
sion yesterday attending to routine
business. A number of accounts were
approved.
The gratifying news was received
yesterday by Governor Lanham that
for the next two or three years at least
no appropriation will be needed from
the state for the support and mainten-
ance of the state pqpltentiarles.
These instituolns are now on a self-
supporting basis and from present In-
dications will remain so for some time
to come. This excellent condition of
affairs also reflect great credit on the
state penitentiary board under whose
wise and judicious management the
state penitentiary system has been
brought up to its present standard.
A short time ago Comptroller 8 e-
phens addressed a letter to Superin-
tendent Searcy of the penitentiaries
and to Financial Agent Wortham re-
questing them to make an estimate M
the appropriations which will be need-
ed for the next two years for the sup-
port and maintenance of these insti-
tutions so that this Information may
be incorporated In the comptrollers
report to the governor.
Yesterday afternoon the governor
received a letter signed by Superin-
tendent Baker and Financial Agent
Wortham advising him that no appro-
priations will be needed for the next
two veara for these Institutions. The
onlv request these officers of the state
penitentiary system request from the
state Is that they be
the proceeds from convict labor. This
request will of course be granted.
This excellent showing la due to the
establishment of the Iron industry at
Rusk and the sugar industry at Hunts-
ville which has been in successful
operation for the past severs years
So successful has been the iron In-
dustry that it will be remembered
that some time ago the foundrymcn
of the state appointed a committee
to confer with tho penitentiary board
with a view of having the state llm.t

Captain W R Davis state tax com.
mlsaloner yesterday began the com-
SAN ANTONIO SUNDAY LIGHT BAN ANTONIO. TEXAS BUNDAY SEPTEMBER 2 1908.
I pilation of his report to the governor.
| in accordance with the provisions of
! the Williams' intangible tax law. Be-
fore beginning actual work of prepar-
ing the report. Captain Davie said
yesterday that be would figure out
what percentage of the valuations
placed on the intangible assets of the
corporations subject to the law by
the state tax board had been placed on
the tax rolls by the county commis-
sioners throughout the state.
Thus far the comptroller's depart-
ment ha« received the tax rolls of 131
counties in the state and as far as
can be ascertained none of these
counties have adopted the figures of
the state tax board as sent to the
assessors by the board. Some of the
county commissioners In fixing the as-
sessed valuations of their counties
have placed the intangible assets ot
these corporations at 25 per cent of
the amount decided upon by the tax
board and in some other instances
the amount was cut to io per cent
while in one or two instances the com-
missioners Ignored altogether the In-
tangible assets of the corporations as
fixed by the board. Tax Commis-
sioner Davie will devote his time at
present in ascertaining the amounts
decided upon by the various counties.
It is true that In some of the counties
whose tax rolls have been received
no railroads run through.
It is needless to say that the Wil-
liams' Intangible tax law will have
to be amended by the next legislature
but just what changes are to be made
cannot at present be determined until
the higher courts pass upon the con-
stitutionality of the act. This is now
pending in the higher courts.
In the event an effort would be made
to change the law so as to make it
compulsory on the part of the county
commissioners to place on their rolls
the amount of intangible assets fixed
by the state tax board it is feared that
this would be invading the constitu-
tional rights of the county commis-
sioners as the constitution provides
that the county commissioners shall
fix the valuations on property In their
respective counties.
The board had fixed the maximum
tax to be derived from this law at
11300000. but this has been material-
ly cut down by the action of the com-
missioners' courts throughout the
state.
Mrs. F. A- Williams wife of Judge
Williams associate justice of the su-
preme court was thrown from her
carriage yesterday at the corner of
Nineteenth and Guadalupe streets and
Ibadly though not dangerously In-
jured. She sustained several bad
bruises on the head though it is not
thought that her skull has been frac-
tured. Her horse became frightened
at one of the pack mules of the fed-
eral troops which wx passing on the
street at the time. The two children
of Mrs. Williams were in the same ve-
hicle. but were not injured. Judge
Williams was out of the city. He was
telegraphed to come home.

the loss sustained will reach about

CONFIRMED PROOF
Residents of San Antonio Cannot
Doubt What Has Been Twice
Proved.
In gratitude tor complete relief from
aches and pains of bad backs —from
distressing kidney ills —thousands
have publicly recommended Doan’s
Kidney Pills. Residents of San Anto-
nio who so testified years ago now
say their cures were permanent. This
testimony doubly proves the worth of
Doan's Kidney Pills to San Antonio
kidney sufferers.
Mrs. A. Lopez of 501 St. Mary St.
San Antonio Tex. says: ‘‘ln a state-
ment I made in May 1903. I said my
health had been fairly gtx>d until my
kidneys began to trouble me causing
my back to ache a good part of the
time and making me sore and lams
across the loins. The pain was sharp
and penetrating especially when stoop-
ing or lifting. I couldn’t get rid of
the trouble until I got Doan's Kidney
Pills sold by Bexar Drug Co. and s
stated In my old testimonial ths
use of one box relieved me ot
the soreness and pain and other
symptoms of kidney trouble. 1

FOR CHARITY HOSPITAL.
Series of Lyceum Entertainment* to
Be Given Thi* Coming Fall
and Winter.
The San Antonio Lyceum directors
will not present a course of entertain-
ments and lectures this fall and win-
ter as they have done for the past
ten years. This Is largely on account
of the fact that his present business
connections will not permit A. W.
Shaw to give time as heretofore to
the direction and management of the
course and Guy S. McFarland who
acted as manager the past season
does not feel that he can give suffi-
cient time to the work.
The friends and i>atrons of the Ly-.
ceum will be glad however to learn
Uiat a course of these high-class lec-
tures and entertainments is to be
provided for San Antonio. The direc-
tors of the Charity hospital have tak-
en up the work and have been for-
tunate in securing a course of seven
of the strongest attractions ever pre-
sented on a Lyceum platform. They
have likewise been fortunate in se-
curing the services of Mr. Charles E.
Trimble a* manager of the Lyceum
course.
With the backing and assistance of
the well known ladies and gentlemen
who compose the board of directors
of the Charity hospital and a course
of entertainment as good as the best
there is every reason to expect the
most successful season the Lyceum !
has ever known in this city. The
course will be opened about the middle
of October by one of the great favor-
ites of San Antonio John Thomas the
humorist and bls famous concert ।
company. It has been six years since j
John Thomas last appeared in this [
city and that last appearance was i
the signa! success of the season. His
return will be welcome news to those
who know him and a rare opportuni- ;
ty for enjoyment to everybody. The
other members of the course of sev- j
en to bo presented under the auspices :
of the Charity hospital are as follows
and the mere mention of the names
is sufficient guarantee of the success
of the undertaking:

THE PULLMAN CARS.
Railroads do not Know How Hepburn
Act Affects Them
Special to The Light.
Houßton. Tex. Sept. I.—General
railway officials of this city profess
not to know exactly what relations
they now occupy with respect to pri-
vate car lines particularly the Pull-
man company and the several refrig-
erator car lines.
Northern dispatches have Indicated
that the refrigerator lines will be
practically put out of business. Hous-
ton officials do not share tills view but
think those companies will have to
materially mend their ways.
Passenger men believe times are
brighter for Pullman car service as a
result of this new law. Heretofore the
Pullman concern has been private and
now jt becomes a common carrier sub-
ject to all of the provisions of the
Hepburn law. One of the changes will
be that charges must be basqd on
mileage and must be the same In all
parts of the United States. This is
not now the case the charges of the
company bein'? mainly arbitrary. It is
believed this will bring about reduc-
tions especially in Isolated sections
where high prices have been charged.
Texas lines have long ago had their
inning with the Pullman company and
one by one they decided they could
not get along without it. Hence there
has been no line in the state ft is as-
serted to hold aloof from It. The Ca-
nadian Pacific is one of the big sys-
tems that Tools the Pullman compa-
ny by making and operating its own
sleeping cars.
Some six -ears ago the Southern
Pacific tackled a proposition of this
kind. It finally compromised wlih the
company on the terms that It should
own at least 75 oer cent of the sleep.
Ing cars operated over its lines. After
a few years these cars began to give
out and then tho Pullman company
was asked to replace them with new
and modern ones.
"Nit” was the renly. "You own 75
per cent of tnese old cars and If you
want new ones you will have to pay
75 ner cent of their cost"
That was the end of the partial
ownership of the Southern Pacific in
Pullman cars. It sold out its interests
and since has done as other lines
have knuckeled to the Pullman com-
pany.
Of one thing there Is a general feel-
ing of certainty and that is that de-
spite hades nigh water and law the
Pullman company will continue to he
one of the biggest trusts tn this coun-
try and will continue to control its
car business. There will nevertheless
be much overhaul of rates apd rules
