Oe considered pictures OF the year worthy OF per-
manent remembrance. One Is Mr. Brangwyn's
venetian Funeral" in which the brushwOrk
Is as vigorous and the paint laid on as decisIvely
as IN MI Sargents portraits. The composition
has evidently been a Joy rather than a labor,
and the group Of gondOliers and peasants with
torches and ointments has got into motion Of
lts own accord and suddenly become dramatic
In feeling. since contrast Is offered with a we'd
oinS party. Few pigments are used. and when
the yelloWs and blues are combined there Is a
distinctly decorative effect such as is seldom
seen in academic art. Mr. Brangwyn is per-
maps the least British in style in the group Of
painters at Burlington House. where Il cannot
be said any longer that decoration is a lost art
The other markedly original work is Mr.. George
denrys blue Gown" which commands atten-
ton in the largest gallery In this picture. as in
similar work to be seen in the New Gal
Iery' the Scottish painter is following Gains
borough In making blue the dominating color
without reference to art conventions, and he
proves his case decisively. There is a girl in
side the blue gown, but her face is in a low key,
and she is not more important than the dull red
mahogany in the Sheraton furniture. It is the
subtle yet mastery management Of the color
scheme that makes this picture both interesting
in definite purpose and beautiful in detail. and
there are passages of painting especially where
the blue gradually finds itself steel gray IN the
background, or is mOdulated by the feeling Of
the mahogany of which a great colOrist might
we'll be proud. The rhythm OF color ceases TO
be a meaningless phrase when one Is beside a

Jerome Certifcetion Case.

Magistrate Wahle in the Tombs police court, yes
terday Issued about thirty subpenas for in
quiry which Is TO be held Monday regarding
alleged irregularities in signing petitions for the
nomination OF District Attorney Jerome last fall
Two prisoners are to be arraigned in one case in
which the investigators charge false certhcation
and forgery. One prisoner is Jacob Rothberg. who
is accused of signing his brothers TO the
nominating petition. and the other is Samuel
Finkelstein, notary, who is said to have certified
TO the false signature.
It was charged recently that 449 names were
signed Illegally TO Jerome petitions in East Side
district last fall but Mr. Jerome says an investga-
fion narrowed the list down TO fourteen names and
then he learned that ten of the ready to
swear that they signed the petitions, bringing the
cases, Mr jerome says, consisted in wrong state

one case in addition to that Of Rohberg to be in

ROBBED AND THROWN IN PIT, HE SAYS,
Man Found Bound in Sand Dune Strains
Credulity of Police.

The police Of the Coney Island Precinct were
startled early yesterday by the report Of bold
highway robbery just outside the summer resort
at Sea Gate Coney Island. trolley car was
making its last trip to Sea Gate when the con-
ductor saw man wriggling IN a sand dune near
the terminal OF the Sea Gate car line. The con-
ductor and motorman approached the man ana
found that he was gagged and ound.
They removed the gag. and the man said that
be was Richard r. Sinclair. one Of the cottagers
at Sea Gate, and that he had been robbed Of
$6G1 and then cast into the sand dune. He said
that he had been TO New York to collect certain
rents for his uncle and that while in saloon
he was met by a stranger, who he believed 10 be
the cause Of the hold-up.
The police are doubtful about the hold-up
story, as no marks OF violence were on the mans
clothes or person They are making an tnvesti-
cation, however.

Misbehavior in church is generally confined to
children of tender years, who can not be held ac-
countable, or to hardened sinners who have lost all
respect for self, and naturally for everybody and
erything else Sometimes, however, this maady
will break out among people where it is least ex-
pected, and is, and should be, promptly and hearth
ly condemned. A giggling girl and a grinning
swain during the solemn procedure of divine wor

perience. They ran away from home simply be-
cause the farm was "slow" and they yearned for
excitement. They wanted to be where there was
something going on. They did what thousands OF
country boys have done before them, but they es-
capped much more fortunately than many others.
I In this day and age of the world, when the pace
OF great cities s swift and the city life is beset
with so many dangers, good home on the farm is
mighty good place to stay in. When it is u matter
OF choosing between good meals-country meals
and what 65 cents will buy in big city, the simple
life is unquestionably the better life. There is
an old song still sung in rural communities which
has refrain something like this:
''Better try the old farm while longer
Don't be in a hurry to CO."
History is full of picturesque examples of the
farm boys who have come to the big city to make
their fortunes and made them Most Of the men
who have amounted to anything in our history began
life on farm. There is something In the energiz-
ing and vertilizing influence OF the farm living that
is potential asset in the struggle Of life.
But for all that. the boy who has only 65 cents
when he lands in big city and who has an unlimit-
supply OF yellow-legged chickens and real but
ter and home made eggs, and all that at the other
end Of the line would do well to ''try the old farm
while longer and make bee line for that farm.
Nine times out OF ten he won't be in such 'shurry
to go'' the next time he thinks the farm little
"slOw."
City life is not what it was when Benjamin Frank.
lin wandered about the streets Of Philadelphia
munching piece Of bread. It is complex, and
fierce and brutal with the elemental struggle for
existence. Chicken costs % cents per pound If it
is of this years vintage, and other farm staples in
roportiOn. You don't get farm milk or farm butter
or farm eggs in. town. There isn't any ''hog killing"
time. The parks in the summer time are a poor
substitute for the great park Of Nature the whole
year round. The theater cannot be compared with
the ''taHy pullngs" and debating societies in the
winter time, to say nothing Of the "picnics' and
hayrick rides in the moonlight
Oh, yes, the farm is 'slow" at times, but in,
most respects is vastly better than the rapidity
the big city. Many men who haven't seen the sun
rise for years, who never hear the lark and who
wouid not know daisy if they saw it growing up
through the hot asphalt, often wish they back
on the "slow" old farm, and as they they let them'
selves into stufy house with q night key they
long for the time when they were tired and dirty
and happy and purehearted and clean Of life.
" Better try the old farm while longer. Don't be
in hurry to gO.''
