Eight Painters Join to GiUe annual
Exhibitions.

Believing that the time is ripe cut loose from
some Of the old conservative ideas of judging art
group OF eight New York painters has been formed
to hold annual exhibitions in this city. Their first
exhibition will be held next February In the gal
Ieries Of William Macbeth the art dealer in Fifth
avenue. but by another year the group hopes to
have a gallery OF it's own. which will accommodate
100 or 200 large canvases.
The group as present formed. which Will be en-
larged when larger gallery Is available. includes
Arthur b Davies. William J. Glackens. Robert
Henri. Ernest Lawson George Luks, Maurice
PrenderEast. Everett Shinn and John Sloan Some
of these feel that the attitude OF the National
Academy OF Design has resulted in dscouraging
rather than developing American art along indi-
vdual and original lines
Those OF US who have been IN the habit of send
Ing works TO the National Academy of Design will
continue do So said of the group last night
But have united to show together, because ne
believe art is sufficiently in accord to gain by
large gallery which 7 believe VIII become useful
and influential. The group Will keep itself flexible
To size and alive To what is worth while.

was at first expected. but perhaps not more than
II has deserved The acting Miss Helen Ware
as gypsy girl, Black Meena and of Miss Julia
Blanc as an old witch, Mother Gillian. has ex-
emplfed the talent Of those performers and has
attracted general admiration. The play is a whim-
steal fabric, satrical Of the days of chIvalry and
lncorporative Of a somewhat penny dreadful
story, but il possesses the attributes of fancy and
invention and II gives pleasure 1t VIII shortly be
produced in London. by a newly organized company

Both places were renowned for their temples. which
were considered 10 be the greatest works Of the

posed that facilities for carrying out the excavation

BURDENsOME HOSPITALITY

With regard to the movement which is now IN
progress on both sides Of the Atlantic to place some
check upon the alarming increase of public ban
quets and official dinners there are no people who
WIZ be more delighted have It take some practi-
cal form than the governors of colonies English
American and French. Everybody who visits the
philippines expects TO be invited to dinner by the
Governor General and in the same way English
and American visitors to India regard themselves

Bombay. and at Calcutta from the Viceroy Sir
Grant Duh in his diaries. gives q striking Ilustra-
ton of the extent to which this constitutes tax
upon colonial governors. He cites returns which
show that during his four years Of Office as Gov
eTnor Of Madras he issued 1872 invitations to din

grand total Of 6,l& people who had dned at his
table and at his expense his guests. 1t IS per
fecty true that the salary of the Governor Of
Madras amounts 20 about $4,000 a year. when
one is forced 10 entertain such a colossal scale
even emoluments such these do go n very
long way. And let add that the Governor OF
Madras Is less afflicted in this manner than the
Niceroy or the Governor of Bombay; for whereas
everybody who visits India goes Bombay and
