ART NEWS AND COMMENT

THE painted panel by Sano d
Pietro of Siena, recently ac-
quired by the Metropolitan Mu-
scum OF Art, shows the visit OF the
queen of Sheba to King Solomon. II Is
thus described by Mr.. Burroughs In the
museums Bulletin:
The picture IL divided In two at the
centre by a mullion; the preparation
for the journey and the starting out are
shown In the left hand compartment,
the approach to Jerusalem and the re-
ception of the Queen by Solomon in
the compartment at the right. The
city Of Sheba occupies the upper left
hand part OF the composition. Within
its walls one can see an open place
where men carry boxes and bales,
spices and gold in abundance and pre-
cious stones which they load upon
camels. From the porch OF her palace
, the Queen herself, attended by her
ladies. oversees the packing, n respect
full serving man with his hand at his
hat taking her orders.
THE expedition is already In move
ment in another part OF this same
panel; the retinue Is passing out Of
the city gate. Drawn by two white
| horses, the Queen sits under dais on
four wheeled chariot large enough
for her musicians as well, singing
women playing harps and lutes, and
| two trumpeters. About her is the
very great company on foot or horse
back, the soldiers and the people of her
household. They wear the costumes Of
the artists time and very fitting and
beautiful costumes they are. In front
march the camels, guided by apes or
negro boys perched on carpets spread
over the bales with which they arc
loaded.
1T is a pleasant country they travel
through, level In the foreground with
queer. cone shaped hills beyond There
are glimpses of winding roads, an
arched bridge over a little river empty
ing into an inlet OF the sea, turreted
castles and trees. All the party are
happy in the delight Of seeing the
world only the Queen is becomingly
dignified, perhaps bordering the hard
questions which will prove Solomon.
THE voyagers are not less lively at
the journeys end in sight of Jerusa-
lem. The trumpeters have now taken
the position at the front OF the car and
are blowing out their greetings; the
soldier shades his eyes from the SPLEEN
dor of the city; the attendants show
the excitements OF travellers who an
proach their destination. A car, not
seen before, on which damsels are rid
ing backward SO they may face their
Queen. Is entering the gate. The towns
people have gathered in groups TO see
the sight, and the servants OF the
King. one Of whom wears a turban. are
hurrying out to welcome the strangers.
balancing the city OF the Queen in
the first panel Is the view of Jerusa-
lem In this. Within its walls the pro-
cess!on Is seen winding through the
streets. Tho loggia OF Solomon's house
is beyond, and here the courtiers have
moved aside leaving a clear space
where Solomon. dressed like a great
noble OF fifteenth century Italy, steps
forward to receive his guest. She has
left her car and approaches reverently,
two maidens carrying her train. h, r
ladies with her, and the crowd looking
on from square and balcony.

COTTON STEADY
AND HIGHER
Both Futures and Spots Make
Advances, with Exports
Keeping Up.

Tie steadier tone In the cotton mar
ket last week was in evidence again
yesterday, with May contracts selling
up TO 7.50c, or 20 points above the low
level of last Friday. There were indi-
cations of some fresh buying by trade
interests and investors, but the main
demand on the advance was attributed
TO covering by shorts, and people who
had sold on the big crop estimate or
last week were supposed 20 be buying
back their cotton. The close was steady
at practically the best point OF the day,
or IL to - points above the final
figures Of Saturday. December notices
estimated at about 1000 bales were in
circulation, but were accompanied by
more covering than liquidation, as De-
cember soon sold about 10 points net
higher.
Exports ran ahead Of the same day
last year, the official report showing
1854 bales, compared with 81 ,69S last
season, and a clearance of $500 from
Charleston was not included in the
official figures. 1t is reported that
other sailings direct to Germany arc
being arranged, and while exporters
figure that it costs about 500 bale
to lay cotton down in Germany under
prevailing conditions. the high price
in Bremen is evidently a sufficient in
