times. Peter and Thomas In land-s'-npe,
I.eon mid Percy in portialture
were e?peclnlly mentioned, ns was also
the work of Thomas Morau In deph t
Inpr the BiMtnleiir of the Vos.emite ic

Church through Old New York'' wore
named ns among his best.
Wlllluui M. Hunt was mentioned as

Dannat, the Idol of the Impressionists,
whose famous picture. "The Quur

and Whistler with his vagaries were
given prominent places In the dis
course. Sargent's groat portrait of Kllen Ter
ry ns Lady Maibeth, his "Carmenclta"
and the "Spanish Dancer," together
with his noble work in the Hoston 11
brn'V. were cited as fitting examples
of his art.
A beautiful ti Unite was paid to Thos.

slvanln. It is probable that a series
of subscription lectures will follow this
