VALUABLE GIFT.
Portrait OF Doctor McKibhin by
Artist Fred Yates.

Portrait OF Doctor McKibhin by
Artist Fred Yates.
During Fred Yates sojourn in Homo
lulu he has been a frequent guest at
the board of the Pacific Club, and as a
token of appreciation of the uniform
kindness of the members, Mr. Yates
volunteered to present the club with a
portrait of any one of the members
which the club might designate.
DR.. McKibbin. one of the oldest mem
bers Of the organization, was the one
selected, and Mr.. Yates gave the doctor
three sittings, producing in a few
hours a most life-like portrait of the
gentleman. Mr.. Yates enjoys painting a
person in the position in which he
gets his first impression, particularly
if it is one natural or peculiar to the
subject. The portrait of DR.. McKib-
bin represents him in an easy pose.
with paper on his lap, and in the
act of filling his pipe. 1t is the posi-
ton in which he is oftenest seen by
members of the club.
In every respect it is wonderfully
true to nature, and is characterized by
the bold handling which is a feature
in this famous artists work 1t was
placed on exhibition in the Pacific
Hardware Company art rooms yester-
day, and was admired by large num-
Der Of friends. When it has been appro-
priately marked it will be hung in
the clubs parlor.

The play is most elevating in its tone,
dealing as it does with the uplifting
of the downfallen, with the work of
charity, with the tender ties of fam
lily affection and with abiding love that
compasses all obstacles. The dramat-
ic situations are strong and contain in
each one food for deepest thought.
The piece is a conception which, though
it seems at the time to be lasting only
as far as the opera house door, is more
deep-reaching and grows on one from
hour to hour. The convincing truth
of the whole plot is by no means to
be thrown aside lightly.
John Van Buren,, rector of st. Mil
dred's, is in love with Phyllis Lee, a
woman whom he finds later has been
ruined by his own brother Dick, and
who, although loving him who has been
unfaithful to her, is cast off with a
cold glance and a cruel word. Ann
Cruger is the woman Dick Van Buren,
makes up his mind to win. John Van
Buren, swears to make his brother
marry the woman he has ruined, and
keeps his word. Day by day John and
Ann Cruger find themselves loving
one another more and more, while
each thinks the other has different in
terests. The outcome is a happy one.
Space prevents comment on the sep
arate parts. 1t is sufficient to say that
as in the case of the plays already pre-
scented, genuine pleasure was given to
critical audience.
