SCHURZiS FOOL IDEA.

OF all campaign absurdities the fun
nlest is that Carl Schurz plan of elect
ing Bryan, and then tying him up with
Il Republican congress. If he is right,
he ought to have congress of his own
kind, and carry out his widest notions
If he is wrong, he ought to be kept
out of all chance for making mischief
as president. The people of the coun-
try appreciate this exactly. An Iowa
farmer hit it off to nicely when he
said to Dolliver the other day:
They want us to elect Bryan and
then tie him up, but think the best
way to keep him from doing any mis-
chief is to tie him up to a haystack
out on his farm in Nebraska and let
him stay there. That is the best place
for him.
"The people understand pretty well
what the effect of electing Bryan will
be, and they don't take much stock in
this idea That his election will do no
harm"

vain; there is between them and his
palette an abyss all the more impassi-
bl as Lenbach by nature is designer.
The instinct for color cannot be ac-
quired it must be inborn.
Lenbach's style is followed with
considerable success by Kaulbach,
nephew Of the illustrator whose works
were famous under the second empire.
He also, is excellent in portraits of
men and in the use of monochrome
tints, but much less successful with
women. Two specimens of his work
at the Grand Palace accentuate this;
one shows a man seated, in profile,
draped in a dark garment with a
border of fur, in a chair of dull red;
the other, a girl in a pink dress against
a background of dark green leaves.
Far more than Leipsic or Berlin, or
even than Dresden, Munich influences
German art. The study of modern
models, of the problems of light and
reflection, atmospheric effects-all
that may be called new, has its origin
in Bavaria and Of this school Franz
Stuck is the best representative. Len
bach also was born in Bavaria, but the
styles of the two artists are widely
different. Stuck works with the en-
thusiasm and the ardent force of a.
man yet young-he is only thirty-sey-
en-. Whether this subject be relig-
ious neurological or modern. the
treatment is most effective. In his
neurological pictures, there is a Ger
tain humor. Mermaids and centaurs
play at hide and seek. Little fauns
engage in combat. knocking together
their hard heads. while the audience
aTplauds. Stretched on the seashore.
a son Of man carries on a lively fiirta-
tion with a little siren. His Bacchan-
ale, however, shows a false sense of
color. The idea is well conceived, the
action free and natural. Under a sky
covered with hasty gray clouds, be-
side a wood darkened by the approach
ing twilight, dance bowling, reelng
figures. There is truth in the violent
and the composition is good
Reproduced in a photograph or an en-
craving, the work would have charac-
ter and life; but in the original the
actual merit disappears, annihilated
by the coloring. There are reds so
glaring, purples 50 bright, indigoes so
hard, in juXtaposition so inharmon-
ious, that one cannot help think of the
description formerly applied to the
productions of Delacroix-"the work
Of drunken broom"
There could hardly be a 81 eater con-
Jrast than that between this work ana
one by Carl Marn in the same room-
a Holy Night. The angels resemble
those of Burne Jones. and the colorng
has been inspired by Correggie; but
the grace and sentiment is the artists
own, and the effect is charming.

Paris, France. Oct. l, 19OO.-Not the
least interesting pictures in the art
exhibit are the portraits by Lenbach.
Everyone of note in Germany in liter
ture, in science. in politics, in arts,
has been painted by him. and his por-
trature has aroused universal admira-
tion. His works are not only models
analysis and of finesse. His series of
portraits of Bismarck are famous; he
has painted him, in lie ID, twenty
years of his life, more than ten times,
and in each canvass is shown a dis
tinguishing trait. There is always the
same countenance bearing the express
sion of a mask, the same cold eyes be-
meath their heavy brows, but each pic
ture bears a characteristic OF his men
tai condition at the time. In the first
the man satisfied with his work and
in the full possession of power as un-
contested as supreme again, the faith
er of family, enjoying temporary re-
pose in the country. in the companion
ship of those dear TO him; later, the
man disappointed, embittered. fallen
into the most mortifying disgrace;
later still, the feebled, octogenarian,
with sunken cheeks, fixed eye and de-
bility enshrined in his inflamed eye
lids. 1t is impossible to imagine
representation more truthful and
more analytic. No history of contem-
poraneous Germany could be written
without reference to these effigies of
the period.
What Lenbach has done for Bis
marck he has also done for the Ger
man Emperor, for Molkte, for the
ruler of Austria, for the pope-in
short for all the eminent men of his
generation--and always with the same
insight and skill The collection of
his portraits at Paris includes priests,
sculpteuGs, painters, musicians, chem
ists-all lines of work, Each bears
distinguishing characteristics. The
execution, too, is beyond criticism.
Lenbach employs only neutral tints in
his portraits of men, the shades are
monochrome, Dark browns, golden
browns, soft browns predominate. He
suppresses everything in the clothing
that can detract from the interest in
the countenance, Where the light is
concentrated.
Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1900-10-09

Perhaps in these portraits, Lenbach
takes occasion to recompense himself
for the enforced quiet of his represen-
tattons of men. He has a passion for
the brilliant. for the iridescent shades
of mother of pearl, for the vivid and
yet harmonious 'colors that appear on
butterfiy's wing. 1t is said that he
has in his studio a glass case of but
terllies, and that his eye, in the inter-
walls of work, rests constantly upon
them. But his effort 10 rival them is
