July 20,-Cape May has had a pleasant -week and many people have visited this old resort The rains the early part of the week tended to keep some away, but the fine weather that succeeded care visitors a I chanceto view the beauties of the shore. , Dur ing Saturday, Sunday and Monday the most people flock to this place. They leave business lor the week and run down for a breath of sea air. Those who can afford to leave their busi '" nnss arn mosilv Philadelohians. On Saturday nights Capo May resumes th5 old appearances of gayeties. All the hotels have their ball rooms thrown wide open to the merry dancers, whose happy voices are lost in tho orchestra's strains. Tho Pier Is becoming more than ever a, haven for the seekers after comic and light opera. The auditorium is filled, and the per formers seem to realize that a new life is dawn ing upon thom. Saturday, taken altogether, is the biggest and liveliest day at tho resort. At the bathing hour there is much life, but to-day there is not near so many bathers as there were ten years ago. The fashion seems to te going out, or it seems to be an idea not to b&the every day, but once or twice a week. In former times a bath was taken daily. There is no better time and place to study human nature than the surf during this hour, which is at itsbest between 12 and 1 o'clock, during whicbperiod the disinterested onlooker is often - treated to a series of surprises and given ma terial for meditation. THE ATHLETIC JIEETEJO which took place on Monday was a success in every particular, notwithstanding the rain. It was to have taken place on theprecedlng Sat urday, but the heavy rainstorm of that after noon was the cause of the postponement. The meeting was participated in by athletes from Harvard, Princeton, Andover, New York Ath letic Manhattan Athletic Club, Staten Island Athletic Club, and several other associations of less note. The prizes were handsome silver cups. It was the third annual field meeting of tho Cape May City Athletic Club. The sports were witnessed by manypeoplo from Pittsburg. The Committee of Correction of State Chan ties, appointed by the last session of the Penn sylvania Legislature, have been holding meet ings here all the week. Tho matter Is a deep one. and it is going to take a great deal of time to determine, as they intend doing, how the United States Government, the several States and foreign countries disburse their moneys to charitable institutions in the best way. Tho committee meets daily at the Stockton Hotel, and in the evening generally have a good time. The'men who make up the committee are Sen ators McAlcer, Itejburn, Clay, Mylan, Deardon and Graham. Of one member a great deal can be said about, and that Is Captain A. A. Clay, of Elk county. "Captain Clay, In addition to abilities that qualify him eminently for the po sition be bolds, is a great lover of the rifle and gun. and has a record. He is one of the best amateur shots at ducks in the country. rKOllIKEXT V1SITOES. Adjutant General Hastings was here during the early part of the eek, where he had coma from tho Johnstown district, from a field of hard work. Ho looked careworn, but got some of that rest he so much needed. He was a sub ject of much conversation while here, and was mostly In company with Colonel Krumbhaar. of Governor Beaver's staff, and Judge Garri son, of the New Jersey Supremo Court. The General, when he left Cape May, was to go to ! the camp of the Fourth Regiment, at Slating- ton. Among the distinguished foreigners here aro Minister Mutsu and suite. They attract a great deal of atteation, but are very much Americanized, and have fallen into the ways of the average Cape May visitor. The party con sists of seven persons. Their favorite pastimes are sailing in the morning, riding In the after noon, and billiards in the evening. They have seen about all there is to be seen, including teveral games of ball, of which they seem to be fond. The two ladles, the Minister's wife and daughter, are greatly admired. The party will spend the entire season here. GOSSir ABOUT PEOPLE. G. W. Johnson, of the drygoods firm of John son & Hunter, Union City, is stopping for the ..'- season at Congress Hall. Mrs. John w.

TZXXGBAM TO THE DISPATCH., Chautauqua, N. Y., July 2a Chautauqua rejoices. Bishop Vincent arrived on Thursday, and the expressions of pleasure on everyone's lips would certainly have been gratifying to him could be have heard them. To a disinter ested person, the regard in which Bishop Vin cent is held here is amusing. It is different from ordinary hero worship. It is characterized by peculiar loyalty, affection and dependence, hautalquans could say with the little boy. If Bishop Vincent says so, it's so if 'taint so." Another cause of rejoicing is that we have tree mails a day. The old postoffico is now Jic most frequented building on the grounds. It is a shame that a building so useful should not be more ornamental. It is a low, narrow building, where every available space. Inside and out, is used for an advertisement, until the effect produced is that of a patch work quilt. But worse than its lack of beauty Is its lack of safety. A person with large feet, or one who cannot live without air.bardly dares venture within its precincts at mail time. To remain outside, however, is but little better, because the walk leading to the oQice is perilously narrow, and one Is continu ally finding himself in rather uncomfortable proximity to a tree or post, or uncermoniously poked with an umbrella, or stepping off the edge of the platform nd landing on the ground with undignified rapidity. Two deaths have recently occurred that affect Chautauqua that of Mr. Bolly Lewis, the first proprietor of the Atbeneum, and of Rev. S. M. Baton, of Franklin, one of the Chautauqua pioneers. The former, who was known as a reformed gambler, was fond of saving that Chautauqua niaae a man of him. Tho latter was known to all who know much of Chautau- Sua. He was an enthusiastic member of the . L. S. C, and took more seats than any other member. A student delegation from across the waters is visiting Chautauqua. Last Sunday evening, three of their number from the universities of Dublin, Edinburgh and Cambridge, respect ively gave brief and interesting addresses. Ik Marvel" (Donald G. Mitchell) has given three lectures and Chautauqua raves over him. His pleasing manner and cental face, framed in the whitest of hair, has won our hearts. The sermon Sunday was given by Dr. Brondus, of Kentucky. He is a delightful speaker, and his sermon was an earnest talk that could not but stir the hearts of bis bearers. The spelling and pronunciation matches were great fun. and several good concerts have been given. Mrs. Jennie Hall Wade, of Brooklyn, the soloist, has a sweet voice and a charming presence. The Yale College Glee Club has been with us several days long enough to be pretty thoroughly tested, and Chautauqua has docided that the clnb is the finest tuat has been here since the Yale students were here four years ago. . There is quite a strong Yale feeling sn the grounds thfsyear. George Vincent is a gradu ate of Yale. Prof. Harper, the President of the College. Is a Yale professor; Captain SUgg, who holds as high a position here as the pet baseball pitcher, as Prof. Harper, Is from Yale, and there are plenty of Yale students besides the glee club. What will be the re sult? Oatmeal must go. Chautauqua has pro nounced against it. Mrs. Ewing, the teacher of the cooking school. Chautauqua's gasiro npmical apostle, accuses it of nearly all the crimes in the calendar, and that settles its fate. Mrs. Ewlng has given a series of instructive lectures on tho general subject of food, and she is doing good work in her school. New arrivals from Pittsburg registered at the hotel are: Mr. R. F. Patterson, Mr.'A: E. Evans and family and Mr. A. E. Carrier. One Pittsburg teacher is attending the college Miss Maggie F. Allen, of the Thirty-fifth ward school.

McCandless, Jr., Miss Kate X. McMath. A. H. Forbes and Misses Bessie E. McAIne and Lizzie Madina. D. S. McClerfahan, Mrs, Jennie E. Mc Laughlin, Mrs. Joseph Helper. George L. Brown, J. C.

Scores of Fenniylranians EJojlo the Batliloc and the Sea Breezes. rsFECIAI, TXLEGBAM TO TUB DISPATCH. 1 Atlaktio Crrr, July 2a Atlantic City is to-day the gayest summer resort along the Atlantic coast, and Major E. A. Montooth, of Pittsburg, is the handsomest man and greatest favorite hero this season. He did not come here to hold a consultation with Senator Quay, but to enjoy and rest himself. Hence, he Is accomplishing his purpose without an effort. The influx of Pittsburgers during the past week has been greater than ever before. In beauty, wealth and fashion the Pittsburg dele gation lead all others. While Major Montooth leads in the field of favoritism with the ladies a sweet-faced, handsomely-proportioned girl, with bright, blue eves, rosy cheeks and a wealth of chestnut-brown hair is always the center of an admiring group, either at the Mansion house hops in the evening or along the beach in a beautiful bathing costume in the morning. She is Miss Kinzer from Oak land. Mrs. Hurley, the wife of Daniel Hurley, of Pittsburg, whose erect and shapely figure is familiar about the Mansion, is also a great favorite among both sexes here.

He f requeutly spends a whole day at Brigantine, where Senator Quay made so many big catches. J. E. McKelvey, Esq., has become a knight of the flannel shirt, and, with his family, is hav ing a splendid time. They leave for home shortly. Dr. will Childs knows everybody here, and drives a pair of handsome steeds which are the envy of his more unfortunate brethren. Burr Mcintosh is here with his show. A big audience greets each performance. He Is quite a favorite. Manager Wilson, who is here with Paine's "Last Days of Pompeii," is an old favorite in Pittsburg, and among the 7.000 people who at tend the great spectacle three times a week at least 500 Pittsburgers can be seen in the audl dence. On Tuesday evening the local and visiting journalists were given a banquet by that gen erous hearted host. Charley McGlade. There were five Pittsbuig newspaper men present, and over 100 guests. A most enjoyable even ing was spent. "Tho Mansion" was the toast responded to by Stephen Winslow, the oldest newspaper man in Philadelphia.

It was just for a moment Rose stopped at the door, In the dim twilight, And I halted and stammered, and said no more Than just "Good night" Yet now I can think of a host of things That I meant to say; And the words come as fast as If they had wings, When she Is away. For I think her charming, but how can she know What I think aright. When the best I can do is to stammer so, And Say "Good nightt" Jumping at a Conclusion.

Judge. Bathhouse News. ' Captain Jordan, the enterprising and wideawake owner of the bathing boat below the Sixth street bridge in the Allegheny river, has ordered 2,000 pairs of trunks for the boys and men who so numerously pat ronize his safe and excellently arranged baths. No charge will be made for these garments, but hereafter all male bathers must don the trunks before entering the water. This is a move in the right direc tion and cannot fail to add largely to the good order and propriety of the baths. The uselulness-of a good swimming school located so conveniently as this one, cannot be overestimated. All men, women, boys and girls should learn to swim as a matter of personal precaution. Captain Jordan is constantly on hand to teach the men and boys, and has arranged tc reserve the boat two mornings each week for ladies and girls. On every "Wednesday and Friday morning this summer from 10 to 12 o'clock Captain Jordan will exclude all men and bnys from the boat, and his married sister will be there to receive and teach ladies how to swim, dive and float Neat suits will be furnished free of charge to all ladies who hare not their own bathing dresses with them. The boat is perfectly safe, the, water inside is carefully graded in depth and al ready many of the gentler sex have learned to swim and dive accomplishments which are of the most useful as well as pleasant kind. All may be sure of good treatment, safety, propriety and privacy in Captain Jordan's bathboat. Hotel Korranndle, Atlantic City. Under the management of Mr. T. C. Gil lette, the brother of the late E.

GENERAL CYRUS BDSSEI. A Few Interestlne Fncts Abont the Assist ant Secretary of the Interior Depart ment ABravo Soldier News From the Posts Sons ol Veterans. A successful man inbusiness, as a soldier, as a legislator and as a political ; leader is General Cyrus Bussey, Assistant Secretary of the Interior Department. He was born October .B, 1833, in Hubbard, Trumbull county, Ohio. He went into business at a very young age and prospered. In 1E5S he was elected State Senator in Iowa on the Demo cratic ticket Senator Bussey was still in office when the Rebellion broke out His activity and intelligence so commended him to 8. J. Kirkwood, the war Governor of the State, that the latter appointed him an aid on his staff. The Governor soon com mitted the whole care of affairs along the southern border to Bussoy's charge.! The bor der was kept in a tumult by the audacious rebels' forays and threatening demonstrations. Owing to Senator Bnssey's shrewd manage ment of the means at his command, none of these resulted in anything serious. During the summer, though laboring under exceptional disadvantages. Senator Bussey, through his wise management and quick action, defeated and drove back in confusion a formidable movement organized by the rebels for the in vasion of Iowa and capture of Keokuk. Gov ernor Kirkwood and General Fremont then in sisted that he should take a command in the field. He was commissioned as Colonel of the Third Iowa Cavalry. He was ordered to join the Army of the Southwest, under Geueral S. R. Curtis. Colonel Bussey commanded his brigade through the remainder of the operations of the spring and summer of 1862. In July he was as signed to the Third Brigade of Steele's division of the Army of the Southwest and held this until September 2. He commanded various brigades and divisions after this time until January 11, 1863, when he was assigned to the command of the district of Eastern Arkansas. He was next given command of the Second Cavalry Division. Army of tho Tennessee. This took bim too far to the rear, however, and he applied for more active service in con nection with the Vicksburg campaign, which was given nim in an assignment to command the cavalry of Grant's army, upon the duties of which office he entered May 81, and from that time on until the stronghold surrendered had bis bands full guarding the rear of the besieg ing army, and watching Joe Johnston's hostile demonstrations from Jackson. As soon as Vicksburg surrendered General Sherman started out to settle accounts with Johnston, with Colonel Bussey, commanding the cavalry, in advance. He encountered Jackson, com manding the rebel cavalry, and after a sharp little light routed him. He took an active part in an ine ouerauons arouna ine citv or jacK- son, by which Johnston was finally driven away, and led the pursuit as far as General Sherman thought best to go. With but a brief rest to supply and partially refit his men, he was oft again on another expedition to Canton, Miss., where he found hU old opponent, Jack son, with about 4,000 rebel cavalry. A stub born fight followed, which resulted in the de feat of Jackson and his being driven across Pearl river. On this expedition Colonel Bus say destroyed 13 important factories, 40 miles of railroad and a large amount of rolling stock. January 5, 1S64, his well-earned and long-delayed promotion to Brigadier General came, and the commission stated that it was for "special gallantry." He was given command of the District of Western Arkansas and the Indian Territory, and of the Third Division of the Seventh corps. There was special reason for this assignment growing out ot his superb administration of the Eastern District of Ark ansas. He was retained at this post until the close of the war, lor Fort Smith was too im portant a place to take any risks with during the great operations in Arkansas,Louisiana and Texas in '&4 and '6a He was breveted Major General March IS, 1865. Since the war he has been very successful in business, in politics and as a public man. Space forbids a detailed account of the many impor tant public positions he has held. While in New Orleans, whero be removed shortly after the close of the war. he was always prominent in work for the public good and his successes were many. He is an eloquent speaker.

POETRY 0FPEBFD1IES. Shirley Dare Talks pf the Delicious and Costly Scents in Vogue. THE ETIQUETTE OP SWEET ODORS .According to the Curious Code of a French Journalist. If ATUEE'S AGENTIN PDEIPIING THE AIE rwarrrmr ron nut DisrAxcn.1 The costliest article of ancient commerce was the heart of aloes, not the medicine but the heartwood of the sacred aloes tree, fra grant with enduring and inexpressible sweetness, a treasure in which was paid the yearly tribute of kings, a perfume so ex quisite and esteemed that it was reserved for the use of great potentates and holy temples, of which neither trace nor knowledge seems to exist in this country. The Eastern women perfume their persons with tho smoke of burning spices till their flesh impenetrated with odors for days afterward, a practice kept up in seraglio practice, till the flesh of a harem favorite smells like one of those tablets of pressed perfumes familiar In every collection of Turkish wares. In later times, at coronation feasts and civic triumphs like those which graced the court of Charles of Burgundy, fountains of wine and of perfumes' were part of every show, a boon to be thrice thankful for, in times when the common people were, as Erasmus calls them, unwashed clowns. At the entrance of Charles IL into London sprav of perfumed waters was flung upon the multitude, and among the English and Italian nobility it was the custom to break egg shells filled with perfume over the heads of guests at dinner; the custom has descended to our day in the perfumed crackers of French chemists, capsules of gelatine filled with scent and wrapped In brilliant papers, or silk cor nets. USED BY ALL With the Increase of wealth and refined per sonal habits in this country the use of per fumes Is no longer the mark of the rich, but ft Is the necessity of all except the very poor. In tho large fancy shops, confectionery, cheap novels (not necessarily poor ones), scent jui ets and handkerchief perfumes rise with every season, and there appears to be a field for all of them in supplying this growing country with scent for its handkerchiefs, sachets for its cor sages and waistcoat3 and toilet waters for its baths. The writer has talked with all the lead ing perfumers of New York, and in their busi ness no complaint of hard times is beard. East, West and South are alike in appreciation of sweet odors. Of course the demand for these is the greatest in the centers of population, but the country is no way behind in its craving for toilet luxuries, and it makes up for its lesser population by the high quality of soaps and es sences ordered. For the family of the rich farmer, ranchman or planter, no Paris extracts or toilet articles are- too costly; the very choicest products are in demand for the rich Southwest, Denver and San Francisco, and nothing less will answer. Country druggists say that In the late war, when a woman received her husband's bounty as a soldier, her first purchases were an'outtit of fresh soaps, perfumery and cosmetics things she had never been able to compass in her stinted life before. She could and did often work at sewing or photograph coloring for a subsistence, but the available money went for the minor luxuries, which often mean more to life than its coarse necessities. What is life worth without its pleasant sights, sounds and odors? NATUBE'S DISINFECTANT. One of the most exquisite offices In nature Is that performed by scents of flowers In puri fying the air, and breathing ozone into it by their perfumes. Not Ml sweet-scented plants do this, or all pleasant odors. The distinction 13 marked between the sedative odors and the re viving ones. Lilies, jasmine, tuberose, orange flowers and acacia in their natural form, borue on the winds and mixed with many thousand times their own volume of air, are pleasant, soothing to a healthy sense, though delicate nerves cannot enjoy them even in their garden freshness. Brought closer in clusters of blossom, their odor is narcotic depressing, so that persons grow faint at smell of them, and yet more con centrated their effect is stupefying and deadly. Well-authenticated Instances abound of per sons sent into heavy slumber as if drugged by the odor of lilies or jasmine, and the scent of orange flowers is so depressing to the action ot the heart that it is no safe for anyono with disease of that organ to Inhale it any length of time. It is not at all imagination when nervous, susceptible persons complain ot discomfort from tho powerful scent of flowers or essences of any sort. The reviving scents arise from herbaceous plants largely, from the odors ot roe, mignon ette, lavender, thyme and lemon verbena, bal samic rosemary, and chief of all, the carnation family, including spicy stocks, wallflower and pines. Not quite all sorts, for the fringed gar den pink distils with its sweet spice a breath of laurel ether like that of cherry blossoms, which'make the bees drunk in their overblown boughs. The scent of clove carnations is one nature's finest stimulants, and a garden border f nil of them is a cordon of delicate disinfection as far as its odor spreads. So far. however, the perfume of the carnation proves inimitable, the mostjkillful perfumers making thelrperfumes heavy by abase of jasmine added to the clove ether. The jasmine is just too much, and no sense seems delicate enough to discern what needs to accompany the clove odor to resolve it Wto pure carnation breath. This serves to il lustrate the difficulties which the perfumer has to meet with in bis serial, tantalizing chemistry. THE SCALE OF ODOBS is fixed as a scale of music. Combine such and such notes and harmony results, but tho Inter vals of the perfume octaves are semitones and tones of infinite division, and mortal sense is seldom fine enough to seize them with intelll- f ent precision, ine oweuisn cnemist, jjudu org. who has given his name to some of the choicest perfumes of American make, was one of these natural alchemists. Trained in the careful study of natural sciences common to Swedish universities, he ran away.from home and followed a wandering life for years till he settled in a New York laboratory as dispensing chemist to a firm of manufacturing perfumers. Lundborg was a natural genius, quaint, re cluse, devoted to bis researches, and many a girl who sprinkles her kerchief with the per fume which adds the final charm to her pres ence has reason to thank the ugly, peculiar Swede for a pleasure she would ba very sorry to lose. Imagine the world robbed of its per fumes at a stroke, no fragrant waters for tne toilet, no scents disguising lotions, soaps or pomades, but everything in its bald, original odor. One would bo thankful for a whiff of cedronella or cheap heliotrope, methinks, or a cheap cologne. A curious French journalist diverted himself lately by gravely suggesting tho propriety of scents for certain occasions, in other words the etiquette of perfumes. For instance, some ex tracts should be used for outdoor promenades, others for state occasions, others for the Inti macy of the boudoir. The Idea is entirely new to perfumers, and Tiffanys, who furnish scents for their 250 dressiug cases, had never beard of it; the notion might ba followed farther. On rising, a person of elegant tastes might dash tne water of the bath with French co logne, whoso rosemary tincture has a most reviving effect. The ambitious young woman who is learning society, makes herself attract ive sho imagines by scenting her person with violet powder or heliotrope sachets, which are a llttlo too expressive of desire to please. The trained belle bathes her neck and.f ace in water which a few drops of .benzoin tincture nukes agreeable, and you approach her finding a deli cate sweetness pervading her presence, and deepening as you take your place by her side, as it It were an aroma from her flesh, like some some flowers whose slight fragrance is only discernible by closest senso. Her garments are perfumed by sachets lying among their folds in the wardrobe, n6t worn with them, which gives them tho evanescent charm of the odor of flowers, "which comes and goes on the air llko the warbling of rausiCt" as Bacon says. TOR HER MOKNINO HIDES In the park, her habit may be scented more decidedly witi ; aromatic Fean d'Espagne, or some Eastera blending of -cedar and sandal, or with the raspings of camphor wood, which yields an arbma totally distinct from the gum. Some such suggestion of scent is certainly preferable to that of the best groomed horse, when one must be on his back. Possibly, our French writer would say in the forenoon one must see one's lawyer in regard to some con veyance, and it would totally detract from the IdeA of 6crIous business to go redolent with white lilac nr cau marecbal.scents of the salon. Only such perfume as tea rose hidden in the folds of the dress, or a drop of sweetbrleron the handkerchief, may give discreet pleasure, by rising over the smells ot dust and chlorine which gather in offices from the accumulation of papers. .At a dinner no perfumes are worn. Odorous flowers are not allowed to mix with the savor of f bod, tor the smell of baked meats vulgarizes thai of flowers. The tiny flacon of smelling silts or the vinaigrette crusted with rubies or thrquoises ma be carried, but never u? ed un less in caso of faiutness. But pcrfumeshould ai.-company tho finger-bowls at least (a roso geranium leaf or a sprig of lemon verbena or swceturicr la leave its scent upon the fingers. Perfume is agreeablo at theaters, indeed, they seem a part of the spirit of the place, and wbp does not find a waft of Nice violetor white rose from the rich dresses of lovely women part of .their legitimate sorcery at such a place. For ..the meeting, where, one would attract a lover naeciarea,no perxame oaa oa too aaucaie,ana white heliotrope or the Verdler rose scent, ex quisite, intangible, are the most definable odors allowed. An interest, an individuality, belong to the persons who attach themselves to some fine old scent, once fashionable but nearly forgotten, and who come to be known by the bouquet ue Caroline or tho honey water which faintly perfumes their handkerchiefs and gloves. THE E03IANCE OP PEETTJME. Such fancies belong to the persons not quite young; who yet never grow old, but are a be trayal of ardent sensibilities transformed into tastes and keen remembrances. The dulling of time does not take place with such people. It only refines them; Or the delicate old perfume may be carried by one of those young people, serious and mature beyond their years, who are condensed romances. One can tell a character, or at least Its development, by a perfume readily. One thing Is curious but perfectly natural, that perfumers by trade never care to use per fumes, they breathe so much of them. After visiting the laboratories of two or three manu facturers, one comes home with a feeling that there Is no scent like the perfume of clean linen, that indescribable freshness whjch Ln bm essayed to imitate in his forgotten eau de Mousseline. For all that, perfumes have their use and value, for they were esteemed for their medicinal qualities by the earliest and greatest physicians, and the formulas for certain odors were written on marble tablets in the public temples. Nature, which gives each animal its proper smell, improves upon this with man, whom she gives choice ot a hundred odors for soothing and stimulant. Siiibley Dabz. ARTISTS AND ART MATTERS. Me. Kattfxan, of the Leader, and Mr. Car roll, the scenic artist of the Bijou, will spend tho next two weeks sketching at Scalp Level. They are accompanied by a large party of laales and gentlemen irom tois cny wuu, omw they are on pleasure and enjoyment bent, will bo very apt to wake the echoes in that quiet mountain hamlet. THE pastel portrait of a little boy by H. S. Stevenson shown at Mayer's Is, in some re spects, much better than many works of the same class which are placed on exhibition at various times. The coloring is very good, and in the handling of the work the expression of ronndness and firmness in the flesh has been well attained. Some of Mr. Stevenson's best work is done in pastel, of which fact the por trait in question wifl hear evidence. Two rather interesting pictures have been noticed at Gillespie's, where tbey wore left to be reframed. One is "The Convalescent," by Leon Callle, the property of Mrs. Bell, and the other 13 a work by BIythe, owned by James Patton. The latter work shows an overturned sleigh with its occupants partly upon the ground in front of a country tavern, while the horse, which has broken its harness and run off, is seen not far away looking back at the havoc he has wrought. A studt of an overturned basket of red, ripe strawberries, painted by A. C. Wooster, Is on view at Morrison's. Tho basket and the ber ries are both well handled and of good color, but tbey are seen against a cold, bard back ground produced by a mixture of black and white paint which forms a ha'Sh contrast to the rich tints of the fruit. This artist could give a much greater value to his fruit painting by releiving it against a background of a trifle warmer and more harmonious color. Five New York organizations have united to form a new association to bo known as the American Fine Arts Society. The Society of American Artists, the New York Art Guild, the Art Student League, the Society of Paint ers In Pastel and the Architectural League are the bodies which h-.ve banded together for that purpose. One of the chief objects of tho new organization is the raising of a f nnd of $250,000 to erect a suitable building for the joint use of the several societies united under its name. Mb. A. F. Krso Is to the fore again with a very excellent piece of work in the line of a still-life showing pottery, flowers, etc. The picture is well balanced both in color and com position, and hasbeen skillfully handled to pre serve the harmony of tone. The execution is in a style straightforward and honest, being free from any affectation of the dash and splurge which is miscalled broad handling, and also from the minuteness and pettiness that is just as improperly termed finish. The work is on view at Gillespie's. The fruit piece in pastel by Miss Ka'tzen berger is a very cleverly handled work, and if Its composition and coloring is all original with that lady she has certainly attained a degree of excellence in these respects which places her work on a plane far above the average of pict ures of the same character. The variety and richness of color, the softness and delicacy of tone and the fine sense of harmony and har monious contrasts is such as is. seldom at tained by the ordinary student of art. The grace and beanty of the arrangement and the clear perception of o true proportion and bal ance of effect is evidently a result of knowl edge and training such as Is possessed only by a finished artist. Mb. Will 8. Reynolds has another still life at Boyd's. It Is very similar in character to the one which attracted so much attention there a few weeks since, but is greatly superior In execution. In the arrangement of the vari ous objects, this work has seme claim to be artistic, while the former picture had none whatever, and there is also expressed some idea of tone and the relation of each object to those surrounding it. The picture is evidently intended to express a vein of sarcasm with re gard to one form of temperance agitation, as there Is shown a thumbed and tattered volume Inscribed "Bine Laws" in otose proximity to a large-sized stone jog labeled "Old Mononga bela," while a copy of the National Light is seen close by among other objects of less im portance, snch as a pipe, tobacco, etc. As in other works by the same-artist the coloring is verv close to nature, with the single exception of the newspaper, which is too coldly white in the light, too coldly blank in the shadow, and is out ot tone with the balance of the work. Two small sketches by Mr. G. F. Hetzel, a nephew of the well-known artist of that name, are on exhibition at Young's. It would be diffi cult to place the pictures where they would be seen to a greater disadvantage than they are in the position which they have occupied for some davs in the window, and it would be just as difficult to defend the action of placing upon them cards inscribed "Hetzel. artist." They would never deceive anyone acquainted with the works of the man who has made the name "HetzeV'so familiar in art circles, but that they aro not only liable to mislead,but actually have misled, others less conversant with such matters is a fact perfectly within the Knowledge of the writer. So far as the pictures themselves are concerned, they exhibit a great deal of pains taking care and an utter lack of knowledge of what is meant by finish, both of the end to be achieved and the method of its attainment. It Mr. Hetzel will use larger brushes and, caring less for finish, will put more strength and vigor Into the handling of his pictures, he will pro duce good work, as he has already advanced so far that be avoids the glaring falseness and crudity which only too often spoils the worlcTof students. A vebt cleverly handled landscape with sheep, the work of Mr. B, Lo Grand Johnston, is on exhibition at Boyd's. Mr. Johnston, who is a resident of Washington. D. C., bears a very enviable reputation as a sheep painter, and the work in question Is an excellent example of his QUALITY AND PRICE! "We don't starve quality to throw a bone to price. In other words we do not get tho quality of our goods away down, in order to have the price away down also. "We glye the best and newest goods in the market, and are satisfied with an extremely low profit.

It Is not the first of his pictures that has been seen in this city, but it is unquestionably one of the best, and yet In spite of that fact it is possessed of one fault for which it is ex tremely difficult to account. There is very small excuse for an artist of Mr. Johnston s ability painting a dog with a face like a sheep, but he has done so. nevertheless, and attached it to a body that Is admirably drawn. With the balance of the work there is little or no fault to be found: the sheep are well drawn and natural in attitude and the colorscheme of the whole is quiet and pleasing. The landscape I subdued in tone and the interest here is subordinated to that which centers in the animals. With this end in view the color Is keyed somewhat below that of nature, and cool tones of brown and f:reen have been made to prevail. The hand ing also is here very broad and free, with little rare for minuteness of detail, and even tbo figure of a man lazily reclimnguponthegrouna has been broadly hinted at rather than ex pressed. Miss Voegtly, whoso bright summer land scape was noticed in this column last Sunday has another picture at Young's. This time she has e'sayed the rendition of a winter scene, and her efforts have not been crowned with any too great a degree of success. A cold, bleak day in midwinter, the scene a roadway winding past on the edge of a wood, whero tall trees raise their snow-covered crests toward the sky. such is the subject of her work, the spirit of which has been in a great measure lost through faulty handling. It Is difficult to do justice to winter landscapes, for the reason that their chief beanty consists of a peculiar delicacy of tone which requires considerable knowledge to ren der faithfully upon canvas, and the beauty of which the perception of tne average student is too dull to either feel or appreciate. Beginners frequently favor subjects of this kind becauso they appear to be verysimple, both in form and color, forgetting that their great charm lies in something moro subtle still, and that it will not do to paint the sky and distance of a flat gray tone and the foreground of a ghastly wnite. Miss Voegtly has not failed so signally in these respects as manv others have done, bat still her picture is too bard where it is in tended to bo expressive of the softness of mist and air.
