PICTURES AND THEIR PAINTERS. The
History of Painting. By Lorinda Mum
son Bryant. New York: John Lane
Company.
This Is a complete, exhaustive and care
full history of painting from the earliest
stages In the eastern and southern coun-
tries to most noteworthy opponents Of the
modern schools. The photographs are nu-
merous we'll chosen and we'll reproduced.
Miss Munson's notes on the characteristics
of artists and paintings, the connection be-
tween the successive epochs, the clearnesS
and precision Of the whole book make 1t
a valuable publication. 1t is particularly
to be commended to the class which Miss
Munson had most In mind-those men and
women who, with little time to spend on
research, yet wish to have a general intel
ligent knowledge of the world of pictorial
art.
BAR-2O. By Clarence Edward milford.
Illustrated by N c. Wyeth and F. E.
Schoonover New York: The Outing
Publishing Company.
With the popping of firearms the reader
is introduced to Bar 20 and its cowpunch-
ers, and to the tune of a grand fusillade he
takes his leave. The occasional moments
of rest known to the firearms of Hopalong
Cassidy and his friends are celebrated by
ebullitions of cowboy humor. There is
western atmosphere and boyish gambois
and all the ingredients that go to make up
the ranch story.
LORD BEACONSFIELD. And Other
Tory Memories. BY T. E. kebbel. With
Rembrandt Portrait of Lord Beacons-
field. New York. Mitchell kennerley.
From a long life of associa ton with the
toryism, Mr.. Kebbel has compiled VOL
ume of keen and interesting "reminiscences
The son of a Church of England rector of
the old school, a journalist by profession
and tory by conviction, he has had album
dant opportunity to study his subject. And
to these qualifications he adds a fair and
candid mind and a delightful degree of
humor.
The comments on Lord Beaconsfield re-
veal the great statesman In a more kindly
and simple aspect than is the general view.
There interesting details of his home
l:fe and of the personality of Lady Beacons-
field. Sketches of the late Duke of Rutland
and of the late Lord Carnayon follow. and
glimpses of various tory members. There
are descriptions of shooting parties in tory
businesses, of witty gatherings In tory clubs
But that which constitutes the most charm
ing and characteristic chapters of Mr.. keb-
bells "reminiscences are the lifelke pictures
Of vanished days-the interiors of tory inns
worthy of Dickens himself, and the pre-
sentiment OF the village which was 1.-THE

A R T N OF ES.

There Is much interest in the announce
ment that the commission for the eques-
TRAN statue of Gen. Sheridan, which IS to
DO erected in Sheridan Circle in this city.
has been awarded to Mr.. Gutzon- Borglum
OF New York, not only on account Of the
recent controversy concerning 1t, but be-
cause Of the standing Of the sculptor
Nearly twenty years ago this COM
mission was given to Mr. J. @. A.
Ward, who has produced some of the
most distinguished work In this coun-
try, but who, in this instance, failed
70 satisfy first himself and then Mrs.
Sheridan. His conception OF the general
differed widely from that Of those who
knew him in his earlier years. and when,
this winter, a committee Of experts was ap-
pointed to pass upon the statue the de-
cision was adverse and the commission was
withdrawn. Too much care cannot be exer-
cised In the selection OF public monuments,
but to the veteran sculptor it came as
1t should in nowise, however, lessen his
distinction. No artist is infallible and few
have produced as much worthy work In q
lifetime or done as much to elevate his
profession as Mr.. Ward. Mr.. Borglunn, to
whom the commission has now been given,
10 q younger man, who, while having al
ready accomplished much. Ia still in the
midst Of life and pressing forward. The
ward became a physician, he was born in
the middle west, and in the school Of the
great plains had his first training. From
HIS boyhood he showed aptitude for art.
and when in his youth he went to Califor-
mia he was fortunate enough to come UNI
der the influence of William Keith, the
weai-known landscape painter. He has al
ways painted as we'll as modeled-when he
was in England some years ago he exc
cuted notable series of mural decorations
for the Queens Hotel at Leeds-but his
sculpture has been his more intimate per-
sonai expression. His best known work is
his mares Of Diomedes," In the Metropolis
tan Museum, which is an extraordinarily
fine sculptural conception but his little
bronze of Ruskin is no less important. He Is
no novice, but he has not yet fully meas
dividual and unconventional-if he sue
seeds 1t will be well, and If he falls it will
not be weakly. He has not only theories
but enthusiasm and unending zeal, which
in combination with trained ability should
bring forth good results.
Il is gratifying to know that this COM
mission was given outright instead of
through a competition. Though there Is
nothing to be said against the latter course,
provided 1t be fairly conducted, it is a fact
that the best sculptors are averse to enter
Ing competitions-they have not the time.
IL DaB been argued tnat the giving OIL COM
missions outright was manifestly unfair
that 1t shut out the younger men who had
not proved their ablity-but after all, it is
claimed why should not federal commits
sionD be made Notwithstanding for the
younger men to wait and work for?

New Haven. Nov. 6-The Yale football eleven
took its daily practice this afternoon in the
Horse Guard Armory because Of the heavy
storm and muddy gridiron at the field. half
hours scrimmage was enjoyed on the tanbark'
with the punting omitted. Coy, who was in the
game for the first time in more than a week,
scored two touchdowns.
The unsettled condition of the team only ten
DAYS before the Princeton game, was reflected
in several changes. Brides tried at left half
back and Howard Jones at left end. Cooney
was at centre Brown at guard and Foster at
left tackle Tad Jones is in the country for
rest, and Dimes ran the eleven.
The failure OF the injured ankle of Paige, left
tackle to regain its strength caused the
coaches to request DR.. Knight a New York
specialist. to make examination to-day. he
reported that no bones broken and that
Paige will probably be able to play in the
Princeton game.
