testimony to the essential virtue Of the

At the head OF the few old masters

1t is good news that the Roosevelt
memorial exhibition, which is to be
opened in Avery Hall, at Columbia Uni
versity, on May 3, is to have its artis-
tic aspect. Mr.. Freer has promised TO
lend the well known portrait painted
by Mr.. Carl Melchers. The bust by Mr.
James E. Fraser will be included There
will be other portraits, painted and
sculptured, and some bronzes will be
brought up from Oyster Bay A few Of
the best of the innumerable cartoons in
which Colonel Roosevelt figured will
also doubtless be sought out. We hope
that pains will be taken to secure for
the exhibition perfect specimens of the
gold coins designed by the late Angus
