much more completely than the others
around, illustrating the purposes to
which these sketches were put by their
makers. +
Figino $500, of the Milanese school,
and successful imitator of Michael An
gelo, is represented by study in drapery.
There are three graceful figures, the CEN
trail one kneeling.
Art students are much interested in a
series of red chalk drawings of remarka-
BILE strength and more finished execution
than most of the sketches. An Atlas-like
figure at rest is by Benedetti Luti 1866
1722), the last of the Florentine school
and principally a crayon artist. Belonging
to period that must have been at least
100 years later, is another red chalk
drawing, of the modern academic school.
1t is by some early master and is evident
ly model drawing.
These are few of the collection which
the observer would be attracted to by the
names attached to them. There are many
fine sketches whose authors are not def
nitely known. There is a spirited rem
dering of the Homeric myth Of Polyphe-
mus, evidently done by an artist of the
Dutch school; a French classic of Jason
stealing the Golden Fleece; a Rubens-
like sketch of satyrs and wood, David
and Absalom, evidently of the German
school, and many others.
The variety of the collection is one of
the most interesting and pleasing fea-
lures of it. 1t is to remain on exhibition
some time longer. favor for which the
public have to thank Professor johnson
and several of the Portland artists.

The Chickasaw Indians start n Forward
Movement.
PURCELL, !. T., Feb 2S.-The Chicka-
saws have started forward movement
that marks the beginning of the end OF
the communal system of land holding
by that tribe. A meeting of Chicka-
saw citizens, both full blooded and citi-
zens by marriage, was held here last
night to effect an organization, the OBJ
iect of which is to work in every possi-
BILE way to bring about the speedy al-
lotment of the domain now ostensibly
held in common by the individual men,
bers of the tribe.
The meeting was presided over by
Judge Boyd, Encouragement of the
Chickasaw nation, and the sentiment
was all in favor of allotment as soon rs
possible. 1t was decided to hold meet
ings here for the discussion of the mat
ter every Friday night, and all
present pledged themselves to
do all that was possible to
further the object aimed at by en-
listing others in the cause. 1t was also
decided to immediately organize clubs
of those favoring allotment at points in
the nation. Petitions will be circulated
praying the authorities to mike the
necessary arrangements for allotment
