another artist whose work shows per
scnal force is MIR. Frank w. Benson
| who, has found out of doors, with the
reedle, an inspiration not always
granted to his brush.
The unconventional point of view,
the fresh attack, is what we have
looked longest for in this exhibition.
Mr.. Haskell and Mr.. Benson have it.
So has Miss Anne Goldthwaite, in her
clever figure pieces. Mr.. Eugene Hig-
gins is another persuasive exemplar,
mirably in his work. Mr.. Will Sim
mons is on his way to it in his etch-
ings of animals and birds, but his
technique needs strengthening. Tech
rically Mr.. Paul Roche is one of the
most satisfying of these exhibitors.
There is, indeed, almost too much So
phistication in his Curtain Call" He
leaves q sincerer impression in his
study of the clock tower at Bordeaux
Architecture is, of course, visible on
every hand, and it is skillfully handled
in the plates of James Daugherty,
Henry B. Shope and Louis Orr. Mr..
Shope is given TO rather unfortunate
epottiness, but he is workmanlike, Mr..
Orr is more than satisfactory work
man. He has firm grasp upon archi-
tecturai forms. A number of pleasing
landscapes are scattered through the
show, pleasing, but with little that is
novel about them. The most interest,

Some years ago Miss Amy Cross won
considerable popularity through her
floral studies. Since then she has en-
larged her scope, painting landscapes,
portraits, and, in Holland. interiors
with figures. A collection of her works
IN oil and water colors may be seen at
the Powell gallery. 1t confirms her old
1epute as regards the painting of flow
ers. Her craftsmanship in this is good,
because it is firm, yet sufficiently deli
cate, and she makes effective play of
color in her decorative arrangements
Of roses and other blossoms. In the
kindred field of landscape she is not SO
successful. The flower pieces are uni
formly excellent. The landscapes vary
and, indeed, there is only one Of them,
study of elms, in which sentiment
and facts are fused in a workmanlike
composition. Too many of these paint
ings are wanting in pictorial interest.
The Dutch subjects, which are skill
fully enough put together, provoke an
other reservation. They are little
heavy-handed. Miss Cross labors her
technique, with the result that it
seems deficient in directhess, in nervous
force. Her figures are excellent in
characterization. Beyond that the

We are sorry that we have come a
little belated to the paintings by Mr..
Oliver bennett Grover at the Ralston
gallery, prevented by mere circum-
stance from paying cordial tribute
where it was Immediately deserved.
The catalogue intimates that Mr..
Grover studied at one time with Frank
Duveneck, in Italy, and the wholesome
influence of that artist may be OWNED
in his work. But it lies obscured be-
hind qualities that could only have
been developed from within. They are
the qualities Of a captivating colorist,
a man who finds good color whether he
is painting in Venice or New England
The tones in these picteres ring true.
They have quality and depth. Especial
ly does Mr.. Grover share that old fair

and for brush work. Sometimes, as

Two or three Venetian subjects, we are
conscious chiefly of just the warmth,
the prllliance, OF the painters impress

stinctive technician places upon can

pleasure simply because there is
knowledge in it, used with a swing
There are couple of portraits in the
show, one of which we vaguely recall
having seen before. But if we haC
seen the landscapes before there would
have been no vagueness about our rec
election of them, for they are goot
deal more than clever.

POUNCE ON RIXEY
IN SIXTH FRAME
AND CINCY LOSES

CINCINNATI, O., April 25.-Pounc
ing upon Eppa Rixey in the sixth
round, pounding out four singles an6
walk aided by double steal netted
The Pirates five runs, enough to wiz
on Redland field.
Rixey's pitching was anything but
effective, his support saving him time
after time in the first part of the
game The Reds hit Adams much
harder than the score indicates but
they lacked the punch in the pinches
They had wonderful chances in the
second and third rounds to score runs
but they failed to deliver the neces
sary hits.
Two infield mistakes helped pave the
way for the Pittsburg rally in the
sixth, Crane iuggled a thrown ball in
this room and Bohne overlooked q
force out throwing his man out al
first allowing men in first and second
to advance a base apiece. Outside Of
these two mistakes the fielding was
very good and Rixey was saved time
after time.
Breaks Favor Pirates.
Though the breaks seemed to favor
the Pirates, the Reds had several al
times themselves. With two out In
the first inning Maranville doubled to
center and tried to come homo on Cut
shaw's drive to left but was cut down
at the plate by Duncan's good throw.
With one out in the second BressleI
singled and went to third on Fonseca
double but Bibgee took care of Cranes
sharp liner to left and Rixey persisted
after Wingo had been purposely
passed. -
Adams again wobbled in the third
but there was no one to take advan
tage of it.. Daubert singled after one
out, Bohne walked but the best Dun
can could do was a fly to Carey
Bressler filled the bases by receiving
a walk and Fonseca's effort was q
weak fly to Grimm.
Break In Sixth
The break came in the sixth wher
Tierney led off with single to right
Grimms bunt went right into the
hands of Rixey who threw to seconc
bu: Crane in his haste to relay tt
first, juggled the ball and lost his
man.
Schmidt then hit to Bohne who over
looked the forceout at third ant
threw his man out at first. Adams
and Bigbee singled and Carey walked
Eppa was then jerked and Brentor
took his place. Meanwhile greeted
him with a single and a double stea
went through for the fifth and fina
score. Brenton was in command the
rest of the game and not mar
reached first after this round.

The real origin of baseball is some
what shrouded. Several different mer
are credited with bringing it into

admirers of Abner Doubleday, Of
Cooperstown, N. Y, is strongest. AL
though the game was played in crude
way before MS time, Doubleday was

diamond which he outlined (called a

1S49.-Knickerbock wore the frs
playing uniform, blue and white.
1S54.-Weight Of ball changed tt
