make @ grand success with the oratorio
Creation" The chorus Is made up of most of
the best singers in the city, and trained by an
experienced leader. It 10 worthy of note that q
large proportion of the chorus are solo singers

chorus their hearty support The director of
the chorus will spare no pains to make the
performance of "Creation" as good as can be
heard in any Eastern city. A fine orchestra
will be procured and will have thorough re-
hearsing with the chorus. More new members
were received at the last rehearsal

The women's Home Society.

The art and social affair which has been con-
Quoted for several days past in the basement of
the Burke block, for the benefit of the Womens
Home, was brought to a close on Tuesday, after
having been complete success. The ladies
cleared a handsome sum. At meeting held on
Wednesday afternoon special votes of thanks
were extended to Judge Thomas Burke for the
use OF the rooms, to all who gave the use OF
articles and special vote of thanks to Mrs.
William r. Bentley an acknowledgment OF
her able leadership in the whole conduct OF the
exhibition. All the ladies, however, worked
faithfully and are entitled to q full measure of
commendation. The exhibition was q distinct
event in the history of the city because it
showed the artistic possibilities of the people.
1t opened up the possibility of securing .
permanent exhibition here. If society will
further enlist itself in the cause of art Seattle
before many years may have an art gallery that
would reflect credit upon a city some centuries
OF age.

musical solos, of which there were q varied
number, including several from Mr.. Robert

cism. Every feature of the entertainment was
deserving of the laudation extended. The
rooms were beautifully decorated with flowers,
festoons, ETC., very much in harmony with the
following programme, in which every act really
demands special notice, and none were more de-
serving than the opening selection rendered by

thetic, that many have objects oil great anu
curious value, and that many have fine OLD
books, the rarity of which makes them
almost priceless. For my own part
am In favor of an art gallery association
based upon q plan similar to the one under
which the Academy of Fine Arts in Phiiadei-
phia is conducted. This institution Is about
century old. Rich men have bequeathed TO IL
many thousands, artists have labored for it, and
those who have the works of great masters and
who still desire to retain nominal possession,
lend them 70 the association and give to thou
sands the Joy of beholding mankinds common
property, the production of genius. We have
liberal men in Seattle, and II the subject Is
brought home to them, Seattle can lay the
foundation OF a public. art gallery that will
prove potent factor in elevating and directing
popular taste" The lady's idea, while not ex-
actly practical at present, was born of such an
honest and sincere desire to benefit Seattle that
the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES presents her views to
the public for consideration. Ii may not be
generally known, but the fact is that the NUM-
cipal library commission has in view q plan
that will possibly embrace public gallery and
museum of art. These magnificent institutions
do not spring up like mushrooms. They exist
for the most part In the older cities OF the
world. Rome, London, Paris and Munich have
their museums and art galleries, but they have
the centuries 10 draw from and all the worlds
great artists to choose from. The
discussion, however, of this question can only
do good. and the lady's views are commended to
the consideration of all who look to the high
development of Seatte's artistic appreciation.
There was really nothing going on last week to
disturb the quiet that settled on the citys hori-
zon. The musical clubs keep up their meet
ings. Mrs. Strout entertained a few friends on
Tuesday at the Country Club. The Classic Gull
ture Club met on Friday, and on Monday even
ing the Burwell Chautauqua Circle took up the
study OF American history and literature. The
Harvard Club held well-attended meeting on
Friday evening at the Chamber OF Commerce.
The Cotillion Club will give german on Thurs
day, October %. Next Friday afternoon the La
dies Nh Zeal Club will give q recital at Mrs.
willards rooms in the Occidental block. The
autumn social season has not yet fully opened.
When 1t does begin and the whirl really starts,
the season will be exceedingly brilliant
