The School of Fine Arts.

1t seems mistake that Mr.. Fox's charm
ing talk to the Sketch Club on Saturday night
should have been limited to the Sketch Club.
1t was so entirely unlike anything that we
are able get from any other source; it gives
one so much to think about; it encourages
reasonable ambition in such healthy way;
and collapses self-coneeit in such thorough
way that the reporter wished that the So
called artistic world of Portland might hear
what work is. Yet that reporter has but lit
tie space wherein to tell the unlueky many
who did not hear Mr.. Fox's talk that they
'smissed the best thing of the season."
In brief-shorn of all the details that made
its charm-the points of the talk were these:
All teachings in America is at hazard in
Europe the freest schools never teach at haz-
ard, and they never fail to recognize the
value of the antique. The realistic school is
a reaction from the antique, and is often
brutal in its realism. Bonnat, one of the
leading professors of Paris, begins not with
the antique, but with life. The pupil draws
from three to five years from the nude, who'll
ly in black and white. The American student
begins in color too soon and leaves the studio
too soon; hence it too often turns out to be
not the genius he thinks himself, but a
laughing stock Cabanel, another of the
leading professors, Is diametrically opposite
to Bonnats main point in light andsshadow !;
Cabanels, graceful outline Bonnat says
find out how your model is unlike every
other man and bring out his character in
your work. Cabanel pushes pupil rather
faster because he puts him into colors sooner
One works under him year after year by the
following method:
A class of perhaps eighty students gather
around the model from whom they are draw
ing. Twice week Cabanel eriticises each
student giving from one to two minutes to
the criticism of each drawing. Often he
carries students drawing in his memory
for a year. After one of these lessons, the
student must work till the next lesson in the
| light and under the stimulus of this sharp,
clear, scathing criticism. Students begin at
| IA years old and work till 25. Ten years
studio work is not unusual for Frenchmen.
The terms ''frankness, "fnesse," etc.,
| were explained in way that was clear,
| simple and most entertaining The French
| Academy was described very briefy-that
| institute" which "young men ridicule, and
| later, when they are old men, die trying to
| enter" The Ecole des BeGtr Arts Is under
| the protection of the Academy. Formerly
| the professors of the BedMr ArtS chose
their students, but more lately the Academy
| decreed that examinations should be made
4 so severe that merit alone should make the
appointments. At present applicants are
examined in anatomy, history, perspective

People Dying at the Rate of 1000

SAN Francisco, Oct. 16.-Private adyie-
es received in this city state that cholera is
raging fiercely in Korea. No idea can be
formed of the extent of the scourge. 1t has
more than decimated the capital, where
there is a population of 100000. The death
rate averages 1000 day. About as many
Koreans as there are people in the State of
California have been swept away already,
and it is hard to say where the plague will
stop The country is described as an ZAP
palling pest spot" Never was there more
frightful record of ravages of the disease
known to mankind. The story of the plague
of London, is Deggarded by what is now
going on Seoul. They are beginning to give
over the task of burying their dead and the
city is threatened with positive extinction.
