citizens. one from each township
and eight from Raleigh. anil have
this commission select three men
to activity direct the road build

IF mt [endersonville S
IS L It is an Os-
IN calen course, and the
following concerning it will be of
interest.
The New Arrival at the
Inn" is the last Of Mr.. Birney S
great National Academy pictures.
In June, 1909, while riding in an
automobile near Saratoga Springs
New York, he was stricken with
cerebral apoplexy and died before
his wife, who was sitting by his
side, even suspected he was Ill.
His death, coming at the very
height of his power, is distinct
loss to American art. He was a
painter Of congenial friendship
and good cheer. In brilliancy Of
color and superb prainting OF
still life, his pictures have seldom
been equaled. A comparable
man himself, who, loved his friends
and surrounded himself with
beautiful objects, he was just the
man to appreciate the life Of the
! lgS ii countE1 gentleman OF a
:: nj y ag e. which he drew
i as bjecf r1 pictures. It was
existe1 ~ mt in spacious,
filled with light and glowing with
color; a time when men wore gor-
geous costumes, and believed, not
in the strenuous life, but in COM
Portable days of leisure and good
comradeship. Because Birney's
imagination loved to dwell on
these scenes Of the past, critic
has well named him: Painter of
cheerful yesterdays. =
If you will look out of the win
dow at the back Of the room, you
will find the reason for the lady's
presence in the inn. Those were
the days of travel in stage coaches,
and her journey has been inter
rupted by the blizzard. Unable to
reach home, it is for her case of
'tany port in a storm" She has
reached the inn, and been ushered
into the room where the country
gntlemen Of the neighborhood are
gathered for convivial afternoon
and evening. Her boxes are piled
up In the corner, her coat is flung
over the chair back, and she sits
rigid and somewhat embarrassed
watt for the want to get her
.ad9 ng is inter
in and all eyes
1t acc intruder. The
ga exhibits Biz.
ney's marvellous skill in painting
still life observe the rug, the fur,
niture, the objects on the table
and mantel, and the costumes.
Mr.. Birney was born in Cincin
natl in 1858, the son of General
Birney, and the grandson of the
free-soil candidate for the Presi
dency in 1910. He became stu
dent at he Massachusetts, Norma
Art School in Boston at the age Of
eighteen, subsequently studying il
Philadelphia at the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Art, and then go
ing abroad for over six years
There he worked at the Royal Aca
deny of Munich, and completed
his training by tour of Italy
spent in studying the old masters
After returning to America, h
was constant, contributor to thu
principal art exhibits, including
the National Academy Of New
