THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
Art In the Home Is Well Handled
by Some Brilliant
Paonla

Another packed house faced the presi-
dent of the congress when the call to order
was made at 2:30 o'clock. There was no
such thing as standing room to be had,
and many were fain to be content with
positions in the hallway to even get q
glimpse of the pretty stage.
The Rev. Charles w. Wendte of Oakland,
the writer of the first paper, '.The Func-
ton OF Art in the Home" was introduced
by Mrs. Cooper as one who had always
been the champion of woman, and who,
by his present appearance, gave but another
evidence OF his devotion. The appearance
OF Mr.. Wendte was greeted with applause.
He said:
AS we look at the world we live in how all
pervading and impressive is the beauty it dis
plays. The sky, with its tender blue lighted
up with golden sunshine; the clouds that float
and gather in shapes of exquisite loyeIiness.
the gorgeous fushes of color that throng the
gates OF sunset; the silvery light of the moon
keeping soft vigil over sleeping world The
earth, too-what a marvel of beauty it isl The
mountains soar in grand outline into the
region OF cloud and storm; the rivers roll in
silent majesty through the landscape; the sen
tosses its tumultuous waves in never-ceasinp q
graceful curves; the fields and forests are green
with the fresh yerdure of spring tinted with
the deepe- hues of autumn, or sparkle back the
winter sun from million tiny crystals OF snow.

Tar as they were deficient in imagination and
esthetic culture they were inharmoniousiy de-
Veloped-as much so as the galley slave, who,
chained for long years to his rowing bench,
may have the shoulders of a giant, but cannot
walk single mite.
We commonly speak OF art as if it were some
thing necessarily confined to artists and dille-
tanti, TO museums and to concert-rooms. In
reality, however whether we are aware OF 1t
or not, art is an indispensable element in every
mans lie ana enters into the minutest detail
OF his experience. Grant me moment to IL
lustrate thlS. Enter your own home with me.
Surely here is much that is not needed for q
mere habitation. Four walls, roof and floor,
a door and window, a few Indispensable arti-
cles of furniture, would suffice for that. Whom
among US, however, would this satisfy Not a

of the children, the. songs they listen

beautiful. And not only at the opening, but
at the close OF life also, art lends It's gracious
ministry to adorn the funeral casket of the
dead, to sing songs of divinest trust, to lay
flowers upon the grave and raise emblems of
love and hope above it.
Go with me into the crowded streets, and
everywhere in the busy haunts of men you
will discover the reconciling and uplifting in
fuence of art. The structures that line the
streets are destined, perhaps, for the service
of the useful and the material-shrines of

MORNING SESSION.
Election of Offlcers-San Francisco
Women Honored-The
Trustees


The morning session of the Woman's
Congress yesterday was devoted entirely
to business and to the election of officers
for the ensuing year. The hall was filled
when Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper opened the
proceedings at 10 o'clock.
The reports of officers were all of an en-
couraging nature. Mrs. Ada Van Pelt, the
vice-president, who has lately been per-
forming the duties of recording secretary,
regretted, in her report, the fact that the
late president, Mrs. John Vance Cheeny,
had been forced to go to reside in the
East: .At the earnest solicitation and the
unanimous request of the board. Mrs.
Sarah B. Cooper was induced to accept the
position. This we felt confident would
meet with your hearty approval, and ex-
perience has shown us that wiser selec-
tion could not have been made" The re-
port stated that only once had the board
failed to have a quorum, although since
October weekly meetings had been held,
and that never had the secretary had oc-
casion to record dissenting vote. when
measure was carried on which there was
difference OF opinion the minority grace
fully yielded to the majority"
Mrs. George T. Gaden, the correspond
Ing secretary, also made detailed report.

that the receipts for the past year amount

neld IN poor repute in former times. Man was
thought to be the center of the uuverse-all
the rest existed but for him, and had no inter
est apart from him. But with the rise of the
natural sciences there has come also more
Just appreciation of the loveliness of nature.
Ihere is gospel of beauty in fields and woods,
In mountains and seas.
The modern masters of art poets like Words
worth, Goethe, Shelley, Burns and Ruskin
painters like Kensett, Turner, Rousseau, Corot
aad Church, are its privileged apostles. They
snow US the material universe reflected in the
mirror OF their observation and reflection.
Ihey portray its glorious beauty, so free from
passion and sin. How faithful and devout
are these worshipers at the shrine of
nature! The painter Turner, taking his
place in a ltfeboat, goes out in tempest
uous sea not only to succor a vessel in distress
put that he may the better observe thes color
OF the waves as they rise mountain-like above
his tiny craft. William Hunt becomes q pill
grim to the Holy Land that he may the more
closely study the scene of the life and labors of
Jesus, and give correct local coloring to the
pictures in which he glorifies the memory of
the Christ. Our American Church penetrates
into the wild Businesses of the Andes and the
Amazon. that he may reflect on his glowing
canvas the splendor of morning in the
tropics. But while the landscape is a noble
form OF art, yet the beauty OF nature culmi-
which the external world gives to human his
tory in Its various experiences and activities.
The modern artist has felt this truth as vividly
as the ancient, and sought to express itin that
which we call the school of genre
painting. This presents to us various
simple naive scenes taken directly from hui
man and daily life, and either serious, senti-
mental or humorous in their character. This
IS pre-eminently the art of home and common
life 1t expresses the kindly sense of human
relationship and we love it because we lind
ourselves and our expressions reflected in it.
Those of us who have been so fortunate as to
see the Dutch cabinet pictures. or admirable
works OF Fortuny, Knaus and Breton, of
Millet and Mayer Won Bremen will understand
the secret of their charm and power over u.s.
Admitting then the excellence of modern
as OF ancient art, how can We best promote it
in our day?
The various associations for promoting the

and Mrs. Chandler of Alameda springing
to her feet exclaimed, "Mrs. Blinn the
president of the State Suffrage Society |!
That's a matter to be decided in the
courts.''
Mrs. Cooper, ignoring this little ripple
on the smooth surface of the congress pro-
ceedings, declared Miss Blinn's nomina-
ton in order and instructed the secretary
to prepare the ballot. Only thirty-two votes
were registered for the nominee, however,
which were not sufficient to elect. The
final result of the balioting was that Mrs.
Garrison Girst, Mrs. Charlotte Perkins
Stetson and Mrs. w. E. Hale were re-
elected, while the three new members of
the board elected were Mrs. ]. F. Swift,
Mrs. A. A. Sargent and Mrs. Nellie Bless
ing Eyster.
The ladies of the auxiliary had spent a
good deal of time and ingenuity upon the
decorations, having even gone to the
trouble of obtaining the statuette of Lucre-
zia Mott, which was exhibited at the
Worlds Fair, from the sculptress, Miss
Caroline s. Brooks, who is attending the
congress. 1t was some surprise, therefore.
| to these ladies when Mrs. Bailey, one of
the members in the audience during the
business session, rose in some wrath and
sharply criticized them for their lack
of patriotism in not having the American
| flag among the decorations.
"The whole idea of our decorations, ~
said Mrs. W. E. Hale. commenting on the
matter afterward, twas to make the hall
| look as much like the drawing-room of a
home as possible. We did consider
| whether it would be we'll to decorate with
| flags, but decided not to do so, as people
do not decorate their drawing-rooms with
| flags"
| Nine. Louise Sorbier added that no one
reverenced the American flag more than
she did, but it was the outside and not the
inside of their homes that patriotic citizens
decorated with flags. At the meeting, how.
ever, the ladies avoided anything like dis.
cussion by goodnaturedly explaining that
the lack of flags did not spring from
a lack of patriotism.
The balloting occupied so much time
that it was nearly half-past l before the
meeting adjourned.

the animal world, riyaling in III its is
cient Greek call the world Kosmos; that is
beauty. But there is also much in the world
that is not beautiful much that is ugly and
debased. Rightly understood, this only makes
the beautiful more apparent and attractive to
us. But how shall we come to this right un-
derstanding of it? Man does not by his con-
stitution know what is beautiful any more
than he apprehends instinctively what Is true
and what is right. The brute creation, indeed
seems to have this sense of the beautiful i'm
planted in 1t as an unerring instinct Mr.. Dar-
win shows us that the higher animals often
exhibit more refined and developed sense of
beauty than the lowest order of man. The
birds, Tor example, place high value on the
delicate tints and markings OF their plumage.
The more exquisite and refined the pattern
the greater the esteem in which such birds
are held among the feathered tribe. This
adornment fulflls n.important office in the
preservation and perpetuation OF the different
species, the more beautiful birds being more
sure of mate than the less beautiful. Now
that which is instructive in the animal and
remains so with 1t is lost, as In man we rise to
the highest ranks of the creation: Man seems
to have an innate craving for the beautiful,
but he has no such developed and ready
made sense of it as displayed by the bee, the
bird and even the fish. The savage, for in
stance, lhideously gashes and tattoos his skin,
the Indian mother fattens the head of her
offspring, the Chinese parent congresses its
feet and the European its waist-all in mis-
taken striving for beauty. And what mon
strosities in color, outline and proportion are
not to-day held to be beautiful by persons of
comparative enlightenment and culture! It..
is evident that the instinct for beauty which
is automatic and complete in the animal is
very feeble and uncertain in man.
1t needs to be awakened and developed
Man must learn by gradual apperception the
laws of color, form, proportion and harmony.
This is slow labOrious process in human edu-
cation but it is as necessary in the sphere of
the beautiful it is in that of truth or virtue,
while BY it man rises to the highest levels of
esthetic culture.

The reports of officers having been ac-
cepted, the president announced that nom
inations for officers were in order. Mrs.
John F. Swift the delegate from the Gen.
tury Club at once nominated Mrs. Sarah
B. Cooper for president in a neat little
speech which contained tribute to Mrs
Cooper's able administration of the office
during the past year. Mrs. Laura deForce
Gordon seconded the nomination. She
also moved that the secretary be instructed
to cast the ballot, according to the consti-
tuition of the organization. Mrs. Sarah B..
Cooper was made president by acclama-
ton, by unanimous rising vote, the
ladies cheering and waving their handker-
chiefs. The same course was pursued with
all last years officers, who were unani-
mously reelected, many complimentary
speeches being made as to the way they
had managed the preparations for the con-
gress.

nominated Mrs. Nellie Holbrook Blinn,
