SOME CHAT ABOUT ART.
San Francisco Beats Boston From a
Comparative Stand
point.

There is considerable self-conratulaon in
San Francisco art circles over the fact that
the most influential art associations Of the
Eastern cities are showing retrogression
rather than progress, while the San Fran
cisco Art Association is going ahead.
Boston has for so long claimed artistic
pre-eminence that it is not unnatural that
the artists here should feel more or less
pleased over the fact that their association
here shows advancement, while the fifty
second exhibition of the Boston Art Club
is decided disappointment.
"Pastels and black and white are not
generally favored mediums here" said
member of the Art Association hanging
committee yesterday, "but there is no rea-
son to believe that we may not in the near
future have more of such work. Sincerity
in the use of a medium is the prime basis
of success, and so long as brilliant effects
can be more easily secured in water-colors'
that medium is likely to be favorite.
'But the accumulation of such effects is
too pyrotechnical, and a wall hung with
bright water-colors is apt to tire the eyes.
That the Boston Art Club should give
poor water-color exhibition and San Fran
cisco good art exhibition in any medium
is naturally a source of pleasure to local
men,"
Receptions have been incidental during
the last few years among the local artists,
but spirit is springing up now that prom
Uses to give new impetus to the social side
of local art work. Among quite number
of artists, especially the women workers,
it is expected that series of receptions
will take place, which will, it is believed
by the chief movers, go far toward obtain
ing the generally friendly spirit which now
is noticeable chiefly through its absence.
Many artists who have in a rather careless
spirit belonged to the Art Association have
concluded to work together hereafter, and
the result is expected to show itself before
long.
The action of James d. Phelan, presi-
dent of the Art Association, in arranging
for the exhibition of Tilden's "Bear-fght-
ers, is strongly praised by those interested
in the progress of California art.
whether the group as work of art is
or is not valuable says Arthur f.
Mathews, 'does not enter into the matter.
1t is a question as to whether or not the
local workers are to receive any encourage
ment. AS encouragement, Mr.. Phelan's &C
tion is most welcome to the members of
the association"
Wednesday is vanishing day" at the
institute, where the spring exhibition is to
be held this week, and by that time the
jury and hanging committee will have de-
cided many questions OF value as to the
pictures submitted. From all appearances
the walls will be more thoroughly covered
than they have been for some time.

MIzPAH'S NEW PASTOR.
Rev. F. A. Doane Installed
With Appropriate Cere-
monies.
The Installation Sermon Preached
by Rev. Robert Macken-
zie.

The quaint little Mizpah Presbyterian
Church has now pastor. He was installed
Yesterday with due formality by Rev. W.
W. Woodwork, moderator of the San
Francisco presbytery, who was assisted by
several of the well-known Presbyterian
ministers of the city. The new pastor, Rev.
T. A. Doane, is the same one who, for the
past seven months, has had charge of the
church, and under whose management the
little church on Harrison street was built.
As well in honor of the Easter services
as for the ceremonies of installation the
church had been most tastefully decorated
by the ladies of the congregation. On the
platform great punches of golden yellow
peoples were placed in every possible place,
and among them, in beautiful contrast,
were arranged vases loaded with white
Easter lilies. To the side of the reading
desk was placed an open book of white and
red blossoms, and across the floral pages
was worked. in crimson petals, "Welcome
to Our Pastor"
Reys Woodwork Mackenzie, Farrand
ana treer took their places on the plat
form, and after hymn was rendered by a
ehoir especially trained for the occasion
MI Woodwork asked blessing on the
afternoons occasion. Prayer and a chap
ter from the Bible followed, and then Rev.
Robert Mackenzie, pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church of this city, rose to
preach the installation sermon. He did
not care to preach a regular sermon, he
said. but did he have such desire, his
text would be the words of St Paul to the
Romans, We are saved by hope.''
ut is with God we have to do. and not
with man, he said, land when your pas
tor bows his knee in prayer for YOU. his
anxiety is not what have I to saw TODAY
but what has God to say. And when he
speaks to you it is not what Mr.. Doane saws
which you hear, but it is what God is saving
through him. No man has ever seen the
Father at any time except Jesus Christ. for
he was with God, and came from his side
to this earth to preach his gospel. And
this gospel, preached bv Christ, who came
to this world to clear the darkness as the
sun of Greenland rises after the months of
winters gloom, is essentially a gospel of
hope.
I'VE are ministers of hope-hope of the
gospel of Christ, which shines on rich and
and poor alike, upon the highest as well as
the most lowly, and gilds each with the
same tinge of the golden light of truth.
Ministers are subject to modes which vary;
little ilI-health, little annoyance or
oyerwork, the mode changes, and with it

changes the preaching. But you should
remind your minister at such time that
you have not to do with the modes of man,
but have to do with God alone and with
the hope of his gospel"
Rev. Mr.. Woodwork then, as moderator
of the presbytery, asked the constitutional
questions of the new pastor and of the con-
gregation. Rev. Mr.. Farrand delivered
the charge to Mr.. Doane and Rev. Mr..
Freer charged the people. The ceremonies
closed with a hymn, in which all joined.
H. A. McKenney was installed as elder
of the church before the ceremonies closed.

AN IN0ENDIARY FIRE.
A Family at the Mission Had a Narrov
Escape.

While passing along Valencia street,
near Twenty-frst, at s o'clock yesterday
morning, J. S. Phillips noticed smoke issu-
ing. from Wichman's' candy-store. He
turned in an alarm from box 142, and the
department quickly responded and extin-
guished the blaze.
The Wagner family, who lived over the
store, were aroused by the smoke and
made their escape from the building. Mrs.
Wagner said that she had heard noise in
the store shortly before the fire was dis
covered, and the general opinion is that it
was a case of incendiarism.
Marshal Towe holds this opinion. He is
making an investigation. The stock was
Valued at about $500, and the insurance is
$1,000.

Many Lincoln people, the younger
members OF society in particular, have
enjoyed driving out to the Baldwin
farm. known as Meadow Brook, five
miles south of the city. The Baldwins
have dispensed generous hospitality
at this beautiful farm, and Meadow
Brook" has been a popular objective
point for picnic and outing parties. To
better entertain his friends at the farm
Mattson Baldwin has erected a club
house. which was completed only this
week. and which it is proposed to dedi-
cate this afternoon, when a party OF
young people will drive out. The
building is finely located about third
OF mile from the road. In front is a
smooth expanse OF greensward, and
behind and on either side is a large
grove. Close by are swiftly running
natural sT rings, and the peaceful Salt
Creek. The house itself and the sur
roundings are all that one could ask.
The former is picturesque. slanting
shingle roof covers the building proper
and extends over large porch. support
ed by rustic columns. Exclusive of the
porch there is floor space OF 22x30
feet. Inside things are most inviting.
There is a large reception room ceiled
with hard pine, with hard wood oiled
floor. In one corner is luxurious low
divan, with tempting assortment of
pillows. There are all sorts OF rustic
easy chairs. and many facilities on ali
sides for lounging. On tables are to be
found current pictorial literature, and
pipes and other insignia Of bachelordom
decorate the walls. There are pictures
from Life and Truth and photographs
and what not gracefully arranged with
decorative ribbons. Beyond is the
dining room. the entrance to which is
hung with rope portierres, designed by
Mrs. Baldwin. This room is also ceiIed,
and contains long table and benches
suggestive OF merry banquets. There is
q convenient kitchen, with a proper
outfit, and upstairs are two sleeping
rooms. The first story is SO arranged
that nearly the entire space is available

country adjacent is particularly barren
of hospitable GASES of this sort, and Mr.

gratefully appreciated by his friends.
