A small exhibition Of Japanese prints, Sc
lected from the collection of Mr.. Charles
Hovey Pepper and DR.. Swan NJ. Burnett,
was placed on exhibition on Tuesday last
in the assembly hall of the Cosmos Club,
where it may be viewed on the afternoons
of the coming week. 1t comprehends works
by twenty-five artists. and with the guild
ance of the explanatory catalogue, written
by Mr.. Pepper serves as an admirable in
PRODUCTION to the much-famed japanese art
of NiShiki-ye.
quires on the part of the artist both sim
plicity and directness, but to these essen
tial attributes the japanese have added the
charm of subtle expression and refined SEN
timent. They have set forth their themes
with a knowledge born of keen perception,
and have in the elimination of all non
essentials taken for granted the Intelligence
of their public. BY demonstrating the pos
sibility of such action they have undoubt-
edly Influenced within the last decade the
art OF the west, and to them not only
Whistler, but score of other distinguished
painters were and are deeply indebted.
OF special interest in this collection Is
series of prints by Hiroshige, who lived
during the first half of the last century and
was specially noted for his landscape paint
ings. There are twelve prints in the
group, and of these two upright panels,
showing respectively "Asukasa Temple Un-
der Snow" and Fishing Boats Putting Out
to Sea-" are peculiarly notable-the one
showing remarkable perspective and d.
vision of distances, the other strong color
and elaborate composition. His ''Sarahashi
by Moonlight also EXHIBITS mellow color,
and, with his Temple in the Snow" mani
tests a definite unders landing of the units
of composition. Hokusai, ''one of the great
est and most prolific of the Nshtki-ye
makers "a contemporary of Hiroshige),
who was known, we are told, by the nick
name "the-old- man mad d-about- -dra wings"
and whose work is characterized by GER
tain vigor and dash, is represented by
transcriptions of three bridges; and Uta-
mara who was master of the same period,
by three pictures OF maidens, graceful in
line and pleasing in expression. Most pic
naga, who, Mr.. Fenelosa declared, reached
"the high-water mark of Ukio-ye," which
most freshly colorful are the examples OF
the art of YeiZan, which, at the same time,
are unusual in character. 1t is instruc-
tive to note the individuality of style dis
played by the several artists, and TO OBJ
serve the diverse use of certain colors. II
Illustrating the development of the art are
prints by number of the early workmen,
and explaining the process is an original
block by Haronobu. Further technical tas-
timony is added by four prints made
after the manner of the Japanese by Mr..
Pepper-one portraying a japanese maiden
hanging a kikemono upon the wall, very
fair rendering, and all more or less skillful.
They lacked however, that acuteness or
line and subtlety of color which the Japa-
nese prints of the best period manifest,
and which will, in all probability, for ali
time be the despair of western artists.

Cost Of Sea Level Canal.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The cost
of the sea level canal at Panama is
estimated by the board Of consulting
engineers It about $3.50, OOO, 600. AL.
though the amount seems much larger
than the amount necessary for the
construction of a lock canal, it is
claimed by the advocates of the sea
level plan to be in reality only COM
paratively slightly higher. 1t was
pointed out in the meetings of the
board that the lock canal would
necessitate between $40, 900, 900 and s4O,.
100000 payment for the private lands
and the lands belonging to the repub-
lie of Panama which would be inun.
dated by the lock system. This item,
in the view of the majority of the
board. is entirely done away with by
the adoption of the sea level canal.
As for the time it will take to con.
struct the sea level canal, several
members OF the board today expressed
the opinion that the construction will
not in reality take so very much more
time than that of a lock canal, and
that it no unexpected difficulties are
met with it should not require more
than two or three years additional.
The majority of the engineers take the
position that the building of the sea
level canal should not take more than
Is years.
