white and red: and Alexis Vollon's portrait OF
a sailor boy eating his soup. one Of the most
pleasing and conscientious works in the Salon,
and which fully justiies its purchase by the state
for the Luxembourg Museum. An impressive
picture is that of Debat-Ponsans Humanity in
Mourning"-a mother embracing her two chill
dren whose father has been killed in the wars,
and the lurid glare of explosions Of shells and
volleys of rifles forms a realistic background.
Among the painters who are evidently striv-

Chabas, Henri Martin, Chartran, Rene Baschet,
Debat-Ponsan. Toulouse, Flameng, Raphael
Colin, Laparra, Cayron, Alexis Vollon Any and
Guillonet, whose large panel Of French youths
depositing wreaths on the tomb OF Gambetta is
the finest work of the official decorative class
in the Salon.
In the section of sculpture the medal OF

for his remarkable figure of La Danse Sacre"-
a female OF Grecian purity Of outline bending
backward. with one uplifted while the
other arm hangs behind the hips, Frederick
MacMonnies, in his "Bacchante" in marble,
makes fine show. The work is very much
like the one in the United States, except that
leopard skin has been introduced beneath
the left arm to strengthen the marble. The
"Fternelle Victme'-a stalwart workman lift
ing the dead body Of his companion, killed by
an accident. while the face of the mother and
wife is seen suffering in silence-is fine work in
marble by Cordonnier. The 'Baiser la Source"
