CURRENT NEWS AND NOTES OF ART AND ARTISTS

the work Of installation and cataloging
has been steadily carried on. No one has
as yet been permitted to view these treas
ures. There will be a private reception
no special privileges to the press. For
once the general public will be given first
consideration. There is probably no col
lection in this country richer in the works
of the great French painters Of the early
nineteenth century than this. Here also
Is included a remarkably large and we'll
chosen collection Of the works Of Barge,
the famous sculptor Of animals, and a
wonderfully fine array of rare and almost
priceless specimens Of Chinese ceramics.
And to all these are added the treasures
from the Italian collection and the sew
eral other works of art which Mr.. Wal
tiers has acquired within the last few
years. a feast indeed which should richly
reward one for more than an hours jour
ney. It is understood that only 1000
tickets will be issued for any one day.

THE National Academy of Art, which
was literally revived last spring
through the fundamentally of the Ma
tional Society of Fine Arts. has this week
effected a permanent organization. We'd
nesday the board Of regents met at the
residence Of Mrs. Frank o. Lowden and
elected the following officers: J. Pierpont
Morgan. president: Charles NJ. Ffoulke.
first vice president; H. w. Pierce OF Bos-
ton. second vice president: Glenn Brown
secretary, and appointed as an executive
committee Messrs. F. D. Millet, A. j.
Parsons. William E. Curtis. Cass Gilbert
and Glenn Brown. 1t was determined at
this meeting to call the convention. the
purpose of which is to form a fedora
ton of art societies, May II. when the
city will present it's most charming as
pect. Among the regents who attended
this meeting was Mr.. G. L. Berg. the d.
rector of the art department Of the Alas
ka- Yukon exposition, who represented the
art associations of the Pacific slope.
There Is some danger of confusing this
organization with the National Academy
Of Arts and the National Institute Of
Art and Letters, which were granted
charters very recently by Congress and
incorporated under the laws of the Dis
trict of Columbia. both of which. how
ever, have their headquarters in New
York. The former has but forty mem
bers. and is an honorary organization into
which admission is won through special
attainment and distinction. The latter is

Washington has had many queer char
acters brought here by the various fed
eral administrators to serve in high
capacities, and perhaps at some time or
other there has been a Joshua Craig.
But the wild man Of the west" as por-
trayed in Mr.. Phillips latest novel strong
ly suggests that there is much In his
conception Of exaggeration and indus
emphasis. Assistant Attorney General
Craig has certainly not had his proto-
type in real life within the memory of
man. Nor is the picture of Washington

gether trustworthy. 1t seems like
distorted bit Of perspective. 1t is true

Craig. Yet Mr.. Phillips writes brislliy
and entertainingly. II he does leave the
impression Of playing havoc with the

through the cold, clear air, and our
willing horses galloped swiftly across
the long bottom on which the ranch
house stood. threading their way deft-

A mile off we crossed the river, the
ice cracking with noises like pistol

side was a dense jungle of burberry
bushes, and on breaking through this
we found ourselves galloping up a

many miles into the hills. The cram

faint flush of gray in the east, and as

out dimly the tracks made by the wild
animals as they had passed and re-
passed in the snow. Several times
we dismOunted to examine them. A
couple of coyotes, possibly frightened
by our approach, had trotted and
loped up the valley ahead OF us, leav-
