A TEST CASE.
The Classical Exhibition of Antiques
by the Art Association-Lfving
Bronzes.

The Art Associations tableaux on the
28th will be interesting, not alone as pre-
sentation of human statuary after the an
tique models, but as an evidence of how far
realism may entrench upon the prejudice
against the nude, even when sanctioned by
artistic precedent. The models selected
by John Stanton are handsomely built
young men, as close to the Greek standard
as the material offered could furnish.
They will be covered with bronze paint
and will pose for fifteen seconds, when the
curtain will fail and new statue be ex-
hibited.
The subjects will necessarily demand as
much nudity as the modern idea of those
affairs on this side of the water will per-
NIT. How far that will go must of course
rest with Mr. Stanton, who poses and paints
the men, and the committee under whose
direction he acts.
An antique statue, or the counterfeit
presentment of one, cannot be exhibited
to an intelligent audience in spring
trousers or flannel tennis suit. Nor can
stVenus with her doves bear the iehtest
resem blance to modern fashion-plate.
Among those chosen for the associations s
exhibition is one girl who has posed to the
artists of this City. She, like the others,
will be painted bronze, and in her case, as
in the masculine, the perplexed question
of how much and how little drapery will
enter into the pose holds prominent
part among the various points of prepa-
ration.
When the Art Association was in its be-
ginnings the nude, and how it should be
treated, puzzled the founders. They were
brought face to face with the problem.
They had small time to rule one way or
the other. They were divided among
themselves. One section argued that the
West was too young in art to be boldly
confronted with that realism which the art
centers of Europe consider as matter of
course. Should those statues be placed on
their pedestals as they came from the
hands Of the art nurses of the West, or
should sacrifice be made to the green,
uniformed ideas of the new country
This was over twenty years ago, and
defiant of the ridicule which the artists
and those who had travelled expressed
freely, the prudish preJudices of the ma
jority prevailed.
From that early error the Art Associa-
ton is slowly lifting itself. The approach
ing event will be test OF just how far they
have gone.

Postal Cards and kilograms.

Not thousand miles from San Fran
cisco dwells most irrepressible small boy,
who for convenience's sake may be called
Frsnk.
Quite recently Franks mother and sis
ters arraLg ged to go for brief sojourn at a
neighboring fashionable resort, and de-
cided, for reasons not difficult to divine,
that Master Frank should be permitted to
enjoy an outing elsewhere.
An excellent and highly esteemed rela-
tive, who lived in the country, would be
glad to take charge OF the young man for a
consideration.
It was thought that nine-year-old boy
with equanimity, particularly as he was a
child of independent, not to say rebellious,
nature.
All the arrangements went forward
smoothly. Frank was duly established at
the farmhouse, comfortably supplied with
spending money and with postal cards.

Mamma and the young ladies arrived at

tied to a business-like number of words.
One read: II do not like it. Please come
and get me-" The other: "They don't
have anything to eat. I am starving:

Mamma was quieted as tenderly as pos.
sible by repeated assurances that the dea,
boy would be all right in day or two and
was not really suffering. But the morn
ing light brought more kilograms, and the
first mail brought to the fond mother
twenty-five postal cards, all terse and to tht

TO BUILD A FACTORY.
w. j. Houston Making Preparations to
Manufacture Woodenware in South
San FranciSco


A factory for the manufacture of wood
enware is soon to be built in South San
Francisco by w. ]. Houston of Hartford,
Conn. Mr.. Houston has leased several lots
on Kentucky street upon which he will
erect the necessary buildings. Work will
be begun on them about August 1.
Mr.. Houston is man of considerable
wealth. He has a large woodenware fac
tory in Hartford which has been source
of large profit to him. A study of the
coast, its needs, and the woods of Califor-
MIA convinced him that factory similar
to his Eastern establishment could be
operated with even greater profit here.
Mr.. Houston left for his home Thursday
evening. His trip was made for the pur-
pose Of purchasing the necessary machin-
cry for his plant. The new factory will
give employment to about one hundred
men.

The Humming Top.

The top it hummeth a sweet, sweet song
To my dear little boy at play
Merrily singeth all day long
AS II spinneth and spinneth away.
And my dear little boy
he laughed with Joy
When he heard the monotone
OF the busy thing
That loved to sing
The song that is all its own.
Hold fast the string, and wind it tight,
That the song be loud and clear;
Now hurl the top with all your might
Upon the banquette here.
And straight from the string
The Joyous thing
Boundeth and spinneth along,
And it whirs and IL CHRIS
AS it birrs and it purrs
Ever its pretty song.
VIII ever my dear little boy grow old,
As some have grown before9
Will ever his heart feel faint and cold
When he heareth the songs of yores
VIII ever this toy
OF my dear little boy,
When the years have worn away,
Sing sad and low
OF the long ago
As II singeth to me to-day?
