EXHIBIT OF DRAWINGS.

ExHIBIT OF DRAWINGS.
 Some Fine Examples of the Illustrators Art-Many People Attend the Opening at Yale Art School Last Evening.
 To lovers of art the exhibition at tho Yale art school offers splendid oppor- tunity to see some of the best draw ings and paintings which have been used by two of the leading magazines of the age as illustrators of articles which have recently appeared in their columns. The exhibition opened last evening, and the large number of cul- tivated people interested in art who were present showed that the most in- teresting exhibition of It's kind ever given in this city is fully appreciated. The drawings shown are the works of | some of the most eminent illustrators of the day and have been carefully se- lected from many thousands in the pos session of the owners, Scribners and the Century magazines.
 The drawings are under the personal supervision of Prof. John F. Weir, and number of artists prominent in the | Yale school of fine arts are present, willing to show and exhibit the fine points in the collection. At the left of the south gallery are placed the draw I t,1rr a~sn xxynt t0I, ynrn | carefully selected by August F. Jaccaci, art manager of that magazine and well known as an Illustrator of the Orient. In the exhibit are paintings, pen-and- ink sketches, water colors, works in India ink, crayon, charcoal, and on every vehicle known to the illustrators art. In the west gallery are those pie lures loaned by the Century, which also contain works by the most prominent illustrative artists.
 It would be difficult to say which of these marvels of art, each one poem in itself, is most worthy of mention. 1 We see, however, some which seem particularly to catch the eye and please the artistically inclined. The works of Gibson, who might be said to stand at the head of this profession of illustra- tors, represent scenes taken from some of Scribner's later articles, and in every instance he seems to put an almost l lifelike expression in the faces of his characters. He was for long time | connected with "Life," but is at pres- ent with Scribners. Another very in teresting picture Is that of A. B. Win zell, which represents a scene at the club where an habitue Is relating 8 Hove experience. It is called "She Threw Me Over" and shows in the face of the relator the keenest indignation and sur prise, while one can easily see from the expression of his listeners that they take it calmly and are perhaps some what bored.
 w. T. Smedley, one of the most dis tinguished of American illustrators, shows particularly fine thing in "The Entrance to the Hall of Mines," one of his latest works, which pictures a building at the worlds fair. A particu- larly fine example of poem illustration is "Lilith and the Snake," by Kenyon Cox, which represents a scene from Rossettis famous poem. Robert Blume, a painter who illustrates, has very neat piece of work, "A Shop for Lamps" Howard Pyle, writer who illustrates his own articles, has several of his pictures on exhibition, which show up admirably the strong scenes in his writings. Keats poem "Lamia" is finely portrayed in its finest parts by | Will Low in "Narcissus." A. B. Frost a very serious illustrator. and one who deals in real life, has 8 very realistic piece, "A Breakdown on the Railroad" F. Remington, who for a long time represented frontier scenes for Har- per's, and who is graduate of the Yale art school, has several very inter- esting and original drawings of Mex ican life and "A Pool in the Desert" which, shows a group of nomads about an oasis.
 l D. Verge, g. Spaniard, who is founder of the modern school of illustration, and who invented several methods of later work by which rapid drawing is done, has some fine specimens of his art notably ''The Retreating Verrail- lists"
 | A new man in this branch of art is Werner Jehne, a German, who thus far has gained his greatest success through illustrating German school life. One very pretty picture In his group is "At Lunch," which represents picnic excursion of school children. Joe Pen 1 nel, who wrote book on Pen Draw ing" which was fully illustrated with some of his best work, makes special ty of architecture, but also has done some fine drawing of travels and land- scape. His finest work on exhibition is Somerset House." showing that fam | ous old country seat at Charing Cross. Harry Fenn's work is also shown in the different stages it assumes before 1t is put in the magazine, the rough copy, the electro plate and the proof.
