Gun CLUB SHOOT
GREAT SUCCESS
No High Scores Made but a
Very Pleasant Day
Is Enjoyed.

The annual shoot OF the Hawaiian
Gun Club, held yesterday afternoon at
the Kakaako traps, proved to be one
of the most successful which has ever
been held in these islands. The shoot
ing as a rule was not up to the usual
standard, the hot weather probably be-
ing the most important cause of the
apparent lack of skill on the part OF
men who usually make fine scores.
Lunch was served at the clubhouse at
noon and number Of visitors who had
never before visited the club at it's new
quarters were present during the day.
The results:
Twenty-bird scratch, known angles
Won by d. L. Austin, Is out of 20.

COPLEY PORTRAITS
PUT ON DISPLAY
DetaiIle Water Color Also
Sent to CorCoran
Gallery.

One Of the most important loans OF
pictures made to the Corcoran Gallery
of Art comes from Senator George p.
Wetmore Of Rhode Island, consisting of
two portraits by John S. Copley. and a
water color by Edouard Detaille. The
Importance is not dependent upon the
number of pictures loaned, but upon the
fact that paintings by Copley are rare
and that some of the larger art museums
Of this country are without an example
of the work of this early painter OF pOr-
traits.
The portraits have been given place
on the south wall Of the southwest room
of the gallery. One is that OF a young
man. The pose is standing, with the
right hand resting upon a large volume
placed upon a small table which occupies
the extreme left of the canvas. The
figure OF the young man is extremely
slender. The chest narrow. the arms
slight, and the hands delicate and efrem-
mate. The costume worn is long coat
with side pockets. The color Of the coat
is a dark brown. The waistcoat is red.
In the painting of this picture the
color and technique mark the then pre-
vailing methods of the Royal Academy.
of which Copley was a member. The
face is that of an aristocrat. The COS
IUyDe belongs 10 The WEALTHY class. Yhe
work is In all respects serious, and the
picture one of great value 10 the careful
student of art.
The other portrait Is that of a woman.
This is in the customary three-quarter
length pose, to which so many Of the
painters of that period showed a de-
cided preference. The woman Is mature
a. Il
evening costume, and conspicuous as an
example Of a well-formed neck and
shoulders. which are accentuated by the
dark color Of the gown. The shout
ders are Of that slOping character. so
much affected by portrait painters of
that period. but rarely seen at the pres
ent time.
In the arrangement of this portrait
the artist has shown a conventional re-
gard 10 the spacing of the canvas. To
accomplish this the subject holds in
her hands an opened parasol, which
fills the space at the right OF the can
vas. The color is pleasing and refined,
and the work in all particulars shows
a serious motive and high regard for
the conventionalities of the portrait
painters of his day
Inc water color by Detallle, The
Review shows a group Of mounted
officers watching the parade OF a regi-
ment Of cavalry. The picture is OF
medium size, and the emphasis has been
placed upon the group Of officers occu-
pying the foreground. While the troops
on parade are in rapid movement and
somewhat dust envelOped, the arrange
ment with which the painter has com
pleted his work. has resulted in a pic
ture attractive as an example of the
skill Of this renowned painter OF mill
tary subjects, who IS always impressive
in the evident knowledge of the move
ment OF large bodies Of armed men,
as well as his dramatic force Of pre-
senting soldiers at periods OF rest
