standing one, and the child has been
placed in a slightly leaning posture
against a large carved chair. which
forms sn interesting accessory at the

somewhat carelessly placed. there is a

BOSTON PLANNING
FOR NEW MUSEUM
City to Build for the De-
mandS of Coming
Years

The Museum Of Fine Arts Of Boston
has issued special number Of its semi
monthly publication, the Bulletin. which
has been devoted exclusively 70 the de-
scripioE OF the plans formulated for
the new museum. This project has
been under consideration for some
years, and the different experts who
have been consulted upon this impor-
tant movement have not acted hurried
y in development Of the best possible
scheme for a building which should
comprise not only ample space and SUI
hcient night but also the best possible
architectural exterior and interior
Explanatory OF the plans. articles Dy
different writer's are published, each
treating a different phase of the pro-
posed building, so that the whole
scheme is presented IN a complete and
authoritative manner. Boston, Il Is evi-
dent, has abundant faith IN the future
OF art in that city, and the PROPOSE
ton is 70 build for the demands of
coming years. In pursuance of the idea
that the development Of art interest will
keep pace with the increase Of popu-
,auOn, and the accumulation of ma
terial resources, the managers for the
art museum have purchased a tract Of
land with an area OF twelve acres with
a northern frontage on the Fenway,
and a southern frontage on Huntington
avenue. This new location is not far
distant from the buildings Of the Sim
mons College, the Normal School. and
the group Of buildings of the medical
department OF Harvard University.
The completed plans provide for a
group OF buildings arranged around a
central rotunda so that the seven de-
PARTNERS. win be separate. and yet easy
OF access from the main entrance and
central rotunda- The main entrance
will be on Huntington avenue The
plans provide for a fOrecourt with out
nanking wings, and the area Of the
rectangle of the completed group Of
buildings viii be 4S6x650 feet Its size
can be appreciated when II IS remcIn-
bered that the total Of this com
bined group OF buildings IS Z25,S3o feet,
while that Of the United states Capitol
Is l53.Il2 feet.
In comparison with the present &C
commOdations OF the Art Museum. the
proposed buildings will contain nearly
sevent times the amount Of room now
occupied II Is not expected that the
whole group Of buildings viii be erected
at once. but that a sufficient building,
part Of the entire plan, will be erected
for immediate needs. and that the
group viii be extended from time 10
time. in advance Of the demand, and
that with the completion Of the entire
plan Boston will have an art museum
adequate IN all particulars 10 the needs
OF tails important art center Of the At
lautic States. The style Of architec-
ture. from the areas covered. is naturally
that OF the classic period, with such
adaptations as will suggest themselves
frcn the purpose for which the museum
is intended.

KAISER'S CRITICISM
CRUSHES PAINTER

BERLIN. June 22-The Kaiser's crit
tcism has become something TO be
dreaded by German artists and writers.
The latest victim is Herr Erler. a lead
ing painter in South Germany, who
painted some frescoes in the new Kur-
haus at Wiesbaden, the fashionable wa
tering place.
The Emperor. when inspecting the
Kurhaus, saw the frescoes, which failed
to please him. He expressed his dis
pleasure in a few vigorously critical
comments. and then turned his back on
the unfortunate artist, who was stand
ing near bin. Herr Erler was com
pletely crushed by the Kaiser's critf-
cisrn, and viii never show himself In the
