PAUL DURAND—RUEL.
The firm of ,DursndsRuel was established in 1802. —Since its founding it has dealt exclusive-
, lyin the highest form of-art, the record ‘Bf the-firm. being that they have never sold a picture
, that has not gone up in value and stayedu-p in -va1ue.
They have never handled pictures of
ephemeral popularity. , .
The present senior member of the firm. Paul Durand-Ruel‘, was the first and for many
years the only one to buy pain-tings from that group of painters usually described as the
Barbizon painters, more properly the school of 1830, which included Corot. Daubigny, Dupré,~
Rousseau~ and others.
In 1848 Mr. Durand-Rue} purchased every wcrl; by Rousseau that he could lay his hands
on, and held-them for twenty years before he was able to sell the first one. Corot’s great
reputation was consecrated in Mr, Durand-.Ruei’s galleries. as many as three hundred sam—
ples .Of this master being held at one tjgng_ millet for many years derived his sole support
from money advanced him by Mr. Durandefiuel. ' =
The same policy pursued with the Barbizon school Mr. DurandrRuel has also followed
up for the last thirty-five years with the group 013 so-caiied Impressionists—Manet, Monet,
Degas, Renoir, Boudin, Sisiey, Pissarrg and Puvis de Chavannes. At first this was just as
hazardous a venture as the Barblaon venture. but 01' late years these few m’en have been recdg.‘
nized by the world at large in such a degree that their position as masters is established be-
yond cavil. Some paintings of _Monet have brought $4,500 and $5,000 apiece at public auction
both in Neerork and in Paris, whereas but a few years ago Mr. DurandrRuel was offering
them for $200 and $900 apiece, with no takers. . .. '
Mr. Durand—Rue! first came to this country in 1833. and made an extensive exposition in
the American Art Galleries. Recognizing the great amount of appreciation of fine art in the
American public. he made the venture of establishing a New-York branch. in Fifth-ave, in
188.7. The generous patronage of the American museums and of the large collectors in. the
United States has since justified this move, and it is a matter of great gratification to him
flat 3. large number of. the truly great pictures new in the United States, have been brought

DOUBLE "TRUCK 45-F00'1‘ MOTOR CAR.
This system was first'introduced by ‘Dr. Lam n, of New-Orleans, in 1872. After his death, a few
yea-rs later, Leon Francq introduced it into France with numerous improvements.

His improvements consist mainly in the successful condensing of the exhaust steam

fec'tion of motive power for car propulsion.
A well-kndwn writer on railroad subjects has the following to say on the new system:
“The ‘Kinetic Motor,’ 3. machine constructed generally on t
mall firebox, with sufficient fire to compensate for the loss of heat by radiation, and to
assist the gmmmtion {of steam, 'to .a .degmee that will avoid the necessity for reheating stations along
the line. The idea of a firelcss‘ locomott‘rve is based onthe high capacity of water to contain large
quantities of heat :under high pressure. so that instead of. carrying considerable weight :of .fuel, con-
taining the elements of combustion for the production of heat, the heat itself may he said to be car-
