LARGE CROWDS VISIT
BOHEMIAN CLUB EXHIBIT
ter FashiOnables From Viewing
Exhibition of Art.

VI <1Els
Damp weather, lowering skies and
muddy streets did not seem to have an
appreciable deterring effect on the at
tendance at the public exhibition of
paintings and sculpture of the artist
members Of the Bohemian Club.
which lasted from until 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Admittance was
by card. All afternoon the jinks room,
where the exhibition is being held.
was crowded almost to the point of
discomfort, principally by ladies' of
the fashionable world and lovers of
art. A constant stream of viewers
wound their way around the room,
enjoying the beautiful display Of
paintings and sculpture.
All voices were raised in praise of
the excellent workmanship displayed.
Among the canvase:: greatly admired
was one of Willis z. Davis, called
Orange County Hills" which~is a de-
lightful mountain effect and one of
the gems of the exhibition. He has
also three other canvases Of unusual
merit.
The only sale actually accomplished
so far is that of "Toilers of the Sea" I"
by John A. Stanton, who gave his
purchaser a bargain for $3.50 There
are said to be numerous deals on the
tapis and the exhibitors expect to sell
largely before the exhibition is over
The next public exhibition will be
Tuesday afternoon.
