.l New York is to have conspicuous illus
tratfon Of the functions of municipal art
commission. A bronze group by Biondi en-
titled "a Roman Saturnalia,'' was recently
exhibited privately at the Metropolitan Mu-
scum of Art. A public exhibition was con-
templated and local artists and art patrons
began protest on the ground that it was
not only bad art but that the group is objec-
tionable in subject and treatment Last week
the National Sculpture society took the mat
ter up and passed resolution asking that
the question Of it's acceptance by the museum
be submitted to the Fine Arts Federation and
stating its objection to such acceptance. Sd
The federation has no jurisdiction over the
museum and the trustees will take whatever
action they see fit in the case. In regard
toEthe matter General Di Cesnola, director Of
the museum, is decidedly wroth, and said:
THE 'Saturnalia' received the grand prix at
Paris. II French jury thinks it is such
splendid work OF art as to command the
grand prix and II the Italian government buys
1t for the purpose of having it exhibited IN
one of the Roman art museums do not think
1t will be distasteful to the lovers Of art in
this country.
The original group is now in the museum.
The Italian government was satisfied to take
a duplicate, SO that the original could be
sent to the Pan-American exposition at But
falo.' 4sa55
General Cesnola estimated the value of the
group at $130,G00.' 1t was exhibited at the
5Pan-AmericaA Estf9
The annual exhibition Of the Academy OF
Fine Arts at Vienna was opened by the Aus
trian emperor, and is the largest held for the
past twenty years. French, German ana
American pictures together equal the exhibits

Americans has sent no less than forty pic
lures by sixteen painters, including works by
Dannat, Stewart, Vail, Bisbing and Hitchcock.

General G. C.. Andrews, chief forest

Pine county, which contains 800, 900 acres
Of land, not covered by wster. He says
1t has splendid future. The average
price at which cut-over pine lands are
held In Pine county is 81 per acre, and
speculation in them is now common
He found disposition among some
settlers to check and subdue by fire all
young forest growth. They think that
by so doing they can sooner bring the
land under cultivation. While most of
the land Is suitable for agriculture, some
OF 1t would yield a greater return If the
forests were preserved

The first step In the newly proposed plans
for the consistent beautifying Of Washington
was taken last week in the, decision Of the
Grant statue commission. The commission
named the best six designs submitted and
each of the artists mentioned will receive
s., 600 for his labor In preparing suitable
model The first place was given to Henry
Merwfn sShrady for his design, but the special
advisory committee in its report recommended
that both Mr.. Shrady and his closest com
petitor, Charles Henry Niehaus,,. be requested
to present enlarged models for the equestrian
group that is a part of each design. This was
done, because the committee felt little
doubtaof Mr.. Shrady's ability to execute in
the large his design with the same brilliancys
and power as he exhibited in the small model
This doubt was due largely to the youth and
inexperience of the sculptor.
The other four designs honored by mention
were by ]. Massey Rhind, Charles "A. Lopez,
f. G.s Roth and Waldo Story, all of whom are
pleted designs each sculptor had the assist
ance Of an architect. e
6 Mr.. Shrady, who is the son OF the celebrated
DR.. George Shrady was associated in busl-s
ness Tor several years with Edwin Gould. He
is still very young and began his work in
sculpture by making miniature clay figures
of the buffalo, moose and other animals that
interested him. His first and only important
work. is the Washington equestrian statue
to be erected in Brooklyn. He has fresh
and unhackneyed-s manner of approaching
problems in sculpture which is peculiarly liz
dividual and apparently impressive
