"HliS COUNTRY CLUU certainly,
gf put on Its gnlu attire lycflter-4'
tCj tiny In honor of the tenuis tour-
imnient ittul tho first glimpse of
tlio Improved club house. The
tlay was po cool, so bright, that tho
mountain seemed but just beyond tho
touch. Tho benutlful turf, velvety,
sweet, flecked with yellow sunshine,
wns never so lovely ns this Benson. The
breath of the pines wns odorous In the
nlr nnd the rich verdure of the forest
for ii bnrk ground lntensltlcd tho, pic
turesque grouping1 about the tennis
courts nnd porticos. Theie were nuiny
brilliant red coats, and the color effect
v'ns charming.
Tho club house Itself, extending far
out to tho left Into the pines In classic
outlines, seems like an entirely new
building, ns the bowling alley, squash
court nnd additional ' rooms produce
such changes In tho general effect. The
work has been under the direction of
Secretary A. G. Hunt, who has re
mained In town all summer to superin
tend details, and he deserves great
credit for tho superb success which has
attended his efforts.
The Interior of the club Is radically
.'hanged. The large living rooms are
hung In yellow burlap contrasting
warmly with gobelin blue draperies
nnd upholstering. There arc many
new pieces of furniture partaking ot
the oriental type which Is also carried
out In the rugs. Flemish oak has been
added In a number of pieces to match
those nlrendy In use. Yesterday tho
great fireplace was surmounted by
golden rods which adorned the mantel
and gave a pleasing repetition of the
color note.
Tho dining room Is hung In a rich
geranium bod with self-colored hang
ings. It is a bright, merry, gracious
room that makes you glad to greet It
again and again. The Inner dining
room hns u forest scene for wall sur
face. Tho chairs arc late colonial in
Flemish oak and hand-woven seats and
the whole scheme Is splendidly effect
ive. Mrs. V. XV. Scranton nnd Miss
Holln comprised tho furnishing com
mittee, and to these ladles Is duo the
credit for tho tasteful Interior of tho
beautiful club.
Tho entertainment committee, of
which Miss Alice Matthews Is chair
man, received the guests yesterday,
and gave a charming tea. Miss Mat

What promises to be un Interesting
exhibit of paintings Is to be held next
week nt Grlflln's art shop, tho exhibi
tor being Douglas Arthur Teed, of
ttlnghamton, one of the most success
ful of our younger American artists.
In a recent Issue of the Plnghamtun
Republican Leon Mead thus wrote of
n canvas by Mr. Teed, "The Cardinal's
Palace":
It was Coleridge who mid: "A picture
Is nn Intermediate something between a
thought and u thing." Tho observation
seems apposite to Douglas Arthur Tred's
Inlost, and in many respects his best cun
Vns, entitled, "The Curdlnnl's Palace."
That there is thought, imagination and
moral purpose In It even cnvllcrs could
not question; that 1 1 -1 - "the real thing,"
so far as color can make It. everyono who
has viewed It heartily admits.
While It Is not n reproduction of any
actual locality in Venice, no one would
mistake Is for a glimpse of any other
place. Tho atmosphere, tho archltcctutc,
the ancient canal, and other things in tho
painting nt once suggest that storied city
belovtd by Titian. Yet tho artist has pro
duced a composite conception thnt Is
stronger and more subtle than mere le
acmblnncci for In not mechanically copy
ing a particular neighbor hood, but in In
troducing Miggestlons of many neigh
borhoods, ho lias revealed a bit of leal
Venice, which only u great aitlst may in
terpret. As to the color scheme In this picture,
Mr. Teed has tieatcd the glaring sun
shine on the ellov and saffron facade of
tho old palace with charming: I hart al
most said astounding, skill. The glooms
and shadow of the canal, and especially
tho reflections in it, arc mystically su
perb. TJlit oven bettor than these at
leaht In the lay judgment of tho writer
Is the poetic management of the blue and
purple haze, paitlculiirly in the back
ground, where the lazy canal curves out
of bight round a Moorish building. Moored

moro accurately, perhaps, to Blrctch their

The ipectator sees only the backs of
tho two men, but what majesty of char
acter In the attitude of the thoughtful
cardinal ns hn strides forwardl Ills red
tobc gives that focal dash of color, which
relieves the sombre composition of so
many modern pictures; though this one
of Mr. Teed's Is by'no means sombre, but,
on the contrary, steeped In golden splen
dors: and the sky Is like "a mighty
hollowed turquoise for bltieness." tip
there tho nlr seems "delicious enough,"
quoting from Ddgnr Pawcett, "to make
one wish ono might ensk stores of It for
futuro use." Helow, on the pavements,
tho atmosphere Is moro saturnine: and
perhaps the haze teferred to Is what the
English term ummer colt. '
