from business, he has transferred his

photographs and sketches and as pOr-
trait is eminently a success.
MIR. HOLMES spent the summer at
Ava his country place near Rockville
Md. and now returning to the city for
the winter has brought with him two
score or more charming water colors of
Maryland meadows and open fields.
Many of these are broadly treated, the
color being allowed to flow freely from
the brush while yet being held in simple
mass. Others are treated with more
precision, the effect ga ned being, as it
were, by first intent. One method is not
superior to the other. but better adapted
for the transcription of certain themes.
And referring to medium, none has
more charm or wider scope than water
color, but there are few artists who so
nearly exhaust its possibilities as does
Mr. Holmes. He is above all a br liant
techn.cian and his water colors rank wi h
the foremost that have been produced.
The series he did few years ago on d
trip to South America was the a hisve
ment OF a lifetime and to these he has
since added many more no less important
or significant. Primarily his work is
very truthful. but of la e there has crept
into It a certain sentiment and feeling

four younger artists working with him,

To watch a work of this kind develop is
of the utmost interest Mr.. Turner Is a
craftsman of consummate skill and his
DRAWN are no less mastery than his
paintings. He has. moreover, keen
sense of pictorial effect and a remarkable
eye for color. For the panels upon which
he IS now at work he has employed
stronp. brilliant collors. but his paint
ings are always keyed to their surround
fngs and are, furthermore invariably
toneful.

executed. anon" which may be named an

The city league baseball season
will open on May IA. There will be
four teams, and two games will be
played each week, on Tuesday and
Thursday evenings. Athletic park

gle. At present, the four teams are
the Corunna city tec IN, the Corunna
Avenues, the Y. M. c. AS and the
Reliance team. Two preliminary
games will be played next week to
test the relative strength of the
teams, and if any club seems too
weak to re-establish the keen rivalry
that existed last year. the best play
ers will go over to another club to be
managed by Frank Collamer.
The games next week will be be-

schedule will be figured out and pub
