ART EXHIBITIONS
Portraits, Cowboy Pictures,

PORTRAITS by Wilhelm Funk, most OF them
painted within the last two years, are at
the Henry Reinhardt Gallery. ana they
represent accurately this artists modish
methods. Men and women and children
nave been his subjects, and II is a well
groomed company, exhaling a general air
or expensiveness, that greets the visitor.
Mr.. Funk is a painter OF undoubted ability.
This he has demonstrated through a series
OF exhibitions spread over the last decade,
In every one of which was TO be traced mis-
foundation Of just construction and compe-
tent drawing. Adapting his methods to the
swiftly changing taste OF certain phases Ct
New York's society. Mr.. Funk has engraft-
ed upon his original qualities a sort Of
mundane showiness.
Not naturally fortunate in his handling
OF color. he has overlaid his yellows and
bituminous browns with hues not yet har-
monized into a distinctive chord. The note
of aristocratic clarity and directness may
in due time be achieved by Mr.. Funk. but
1t is still wanting in most of these recent
portraits. There is at least superficial
characterization in his work. but It would
be the better for nearer suggestion CT
freshness and outdoor air The total effect
denotes the hand OF u skilful painter, but
IT would be hard to find in the whole exhi-
bition picture whose inherent and endur-
ing beauty would make the visitor not ac-
quainted with the subject wish to see the
portrait again.

The sad intelligence reached this
city this morning that the mother OF
Colonel Joseph Fuccy. president OF
the clarksburg Northern electric
road, Tas at the point of death at
her homo in Weston and that the
end was but question of time. Mrs.
Fuccy is in aged and estimable lady
and although she has only visited
this city few times, she hasa large
circle of friends who deeply regret
to learn Of her serious illness. Should
Mrs. Fuccy die, the blow will fall
heaviest on the shoulders of her son,
Colonel Fuccy, as the residents Of

his mother and her slightest wish ap-
peared to be law with him. and he
was never in n happier frame OF
mind than when he was doing some
little act Of kindness for his moths.

New Stocking Device.

Women who are afflicted with per-
petual Jacobs ladders in the tops of
their stockings should adopt an anna
teur device that is successful in pre-
venting such mishaps. Instead of u.s.
ing the steel hooks at the ends of the
side and front elastics substitute quar-
ter-inch satin ribbons. Fold piece in
the middle, sew it there to the elastic
itself, leaving the two short ends free.
On each stocking put two or three
loops of silk braid to match in color
and through these tie the ribbons
Fold piece in the middle, sew it

On each stocking put two or three
loops of silk braid to match in color

There will be no madeira work, as
some one terms these tiny holes in the
stockings made by the hooks, and the
effect of the pink or blue satin ribbon
bow is attractive.

RATHER STUPID PARIS FANG
Zebra Rip Could Only Attract the
Gaze Because of the Extreme
Uoiness.
,aph by Underwood & Underwood. N. Y.

Very odd, indeed, are some of the
new tailor-mades, writes a Paris cor
respondent In fact, a few of them ir
resistibly suggest that the wearer, de-
spairing of finding any new ways OF
being beautiful, is as a last resource
falling back on ways Of being ugly.
How otherwise could one account
for coat like an Early Victorian dress
ing jacket, than which nothing more
shapeless has yet been discovered in
the history Of costume, made of stone
colored cloth, and suddenly bursting
into an orgy of black and stone-colored
zebra stripings, just on a level with
the cuffs, which are of the same ar
rangement?
The skirt, up to the bottom edge of
the coat, has also the horizontal strip
ings, so that the general effect is OF
biege jacket standing up in a black
and biege basket.
