artistic throughout; his ''Notre Dame and
his "Trocadero' are notably good works
also; (409, 4l3), Mrs. De Neale Morgan's
Boulder Creek" (390), and her Lake
Merritt" (40l) are exceedingly good works
and indicate taste and ability of supe-
| rior character; Ottilie Lenhardts Fish
| ing Camp and "Boatsu (393, 394), are
well executed in drawing, color and in
| general handling; Reaser's Cutting
Paper Dolls' (439) is pastel that has ex-
| ceeding virtue. 1t is an admirably ham
died piece. Eleanor Warren's "Old
Adobe" (449) is very good. This lady has
! nothing but creditable work in the gal
| lery.
| The drawings shown from the nude by
! pupils of the Mark Hopkins Institute of
Art, San Francisco, are under No. 46l.
| They are excellent and stand high for the
credit OF the school. Amanda Austin has
a remarkably large and very fine display
/ OF pen and ink drawings. Indeed. she
| mas manifested an aptitude for that kind
| OF work that is surprising. There is
| nothing weak in any of these exhibits
she makes. 1t is all good work, and we
call attention especially to the "ConserV-
atory Interior" and to the row of studies
low down on the center OF the west wall
of the gallery. She has reason to be
proud OF the work. The Partingtons,
father, son and daughter. have pen and
| Ink drawings that are far and away su-
perior; the work or r. l.. Partington, es-
peclally as shown in the portrait OF an
elderly woman, is very fine. G. Tebs'
pen and ink work is superior; his pen
and INK landscape (509), for instance, is
an example of a high order. Willis
Polk's architectural drawing is preten-
tious and thoroughly good.
Mrs. j. w. Yuber has some good pen
and ink drawings. small but neat studies.
They indicate, however, something of
haste, or rather not enough attention to
detail and to finish. II. Il. Bloomer has
good black and white sketch in his
''Mt. Shasta' (50S). Leonora Koethe has
several very good pen pieces, notably
The Archway" OBJ and AT the Docks"
| (524.
Returning to the works in oil, we take
note OF Annie Harmon's "Gray Day"
| (20l, neat bit of work; Bloomer's "Mt.
Tamaipias' 90, q vigorous and we'll
drawn piece; MartineZ's Moonlight in
Monterey" (o) and Miss Van Wrinkles
Apple Blossoms "a. Early Morning
at Aptos," by Bertha Lee 80, commands
our attention for general points of excel
lence Selma Newman's "Idleness" (59)
is noteworthy, a work of more than ordi-
nary merit. Latimer's Evening" 80 is
piece worthy the brush OF that accom-
plished artist
Henry 11ScQ6nS I3lSnlS anu Sna-
dows'' (94) is one of his better efforts, and
he rarely makes poor one; Mary Her
rick Ross has number OF works in the
gallery, all OF more or less merit. We
make note especially of Roses l02,
and 'Seedless Grapes" (39). Alice Hart
ley il cannot be denied is an artist, what
ever may be said of her misfortunes. She
has large display il the gallery, and the
fair minded and competent witness of
Qt mi m
acter. For instance, take note of her own
portrait (60), the Portrait OF an Old
Time Man" 81, Peaches" (2l4, MA
riue" water color. 376). Carry Camp
belPs "Wisteria' $50 is superior work
in flowers; Gertrude Partington's Our
Phyllis" (428) is noteworthy production,
more than clever by far; a. 2. Niles
Oakland Creek' (452-453l. and his
"Woods" CAD, are water colors of much
attractiveness, good indrawing, and deli
cate and finished in color.
Emily Kalischer's Landscape" (92 is
neat piece OF art work. c. Burnets
Autumn Poplars' ,99) does him credit,
but 1t is evident he has capacity for better
work. Kate Maher's Low Tide" (75)
and her chinatown. Monterey" (70) are
creditable Peixottois wood Gatherers"
QI2} and his Hay Field'' 40 are excel
lent studies and marked by strong indi-
viduality. Marian Froeich has two good
Marines Q29-I30. Carlos Hittell's
buffalo Head" 140) is questionably
a canvas of vigor, strength and boldness;
but the subject is not attractive. That 1t
is well drawn and we'll painted is con-
coded by all who know anything of ami
NAL painting, but beyond that the picture
attracts no attention. Thad W elch has
several pieces of nerit-"Resting Place.
an, "In The Woods" as, The Old
Ferryu 1856 and "The Flock" $50.

Welch's efforts impress with suggestive
