PICTURES ON THE LINE,
Strong Work Will Be Shown
in the Spring Art Ex-
hibitiOn.
AN ARCHITECTURAL EXHIBIT.
More Canvases Sent In This Year
Than In Any Preceding
Art Show.

| The jury, whose duty it was to pass upon
the pictures sent to the spring exhibition
of the San Francisco Art Association at the
Mark Hopkins Institute of Art, COM
pleted their labors yesterday and as re-
suit there will be more pictures in the
exhibition this year than there ever were
| before, and according to several members
of the jury the work is strongly in advance
of the past exhibition.
When the jury got through passing upon
the pictures they began the work of hang
ing them, which will not be finished until
to-day, and tomorrow night will be held
the reception of the Art Association.
Notices have been sent to all the members,
and especial stress in the notice is laid
upon the rule governing admissions. To
quote from the notice sent out: ga gen.
tleman's ticket admits the gentleman
whose name is written upon it and
lady. A lady's ticket admits the lady
whose name is written upon it and an es-
cort, either lady or gentleman"
1t is deemed necessary for all tickets to
be presented at the door, and the exhibit
ton will be open for. five weeks after April
Is, during the day and every Thursday
evening, when there will be a musical
entertainment under the direction of Henry
Heyman. Any member of the association
who desires to invite nonresident guests
may present their names at the secretary's
office of the Hopkins Institute and tickets
will be sent them.
If there is any such thing as encourage
ment in San Francisco for local art, this
exhibition affords splendid opportunity
for the same to be shown Most of the
fOr 1a ~ iot1
are good and many of them should be
sold else the conclusion will be plain that
San F'ranciscans prefer not to encourage or
do not appreciate the work of the local
artists.
Although all of the pictures in the sew
eral rooms are not yet hung, the Cline" is
made up in most of them. So far as is
possible the deficiencies in light have been
remedied, and, taken severally, the various
rooms in the institute reflect credit upon
the members of the hanging committee.
