lnal whose victim was the dearest one
In the world to him. That is the ulti-
mate problem set here. For some time
the story runs along with courtship and
marriage and the projected voyage to
the new home in South America. Then
in the neighborhood things begin to
happen--attacks, murder once. then
again. The detective begins his work
on the situation. This runs through
the usual exciting points of clue and
pursuit, clue and pursuit, drawing mat
tiers closer and closer Until a specially
smooth and clever villain walks straight
into the conviction of Sir Clinton Drift

ton Is so horrifying to him. so close to
his own heart What dc YOU think
he did about It? You have every reason
to know because you are taken along to
see all the evidence, all the turns in
the matter. Nevertheless, when that
last murder comes about you couldn't
even approach the guilty one. Excel

than excellent in the quality of the

Mr.. Comins is especially successful in
his child portraits, and it is gratifying
to learn that his charming double por-
trait Of Betty and Dot" daughters of
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles D. Drayton of
Washington, will be included in this
exhibition.
With the portraits Mr.. Comins will
set forth a group Of subject pictures
purposed to satirize cotemporary life,
such as THE Sunday Edition." Fire
works THE Movie Line" Good Ora
cious" and Good Manners"
Mr.. Comins for some years now has
spent his Winters in Washington, his
Summers in Gloucester, Mass. A num-
Der of his paintings were destroyed last
Summer in fire which occurred in
his studio.
Mr.. Comins is a teacher as well as
producer, and has taught during the
past 20 or more years at the School of
Fine Arts, st. Paul, Mimi; at the Swain
School of Design. New Bedford, Mas;
at Wellesley College, at the University
of California, and he has conducted pri-
vate classes at East Gloucester. Oc-
casionally he paints still life and flowers
now and then a decorative mural. This
comprehensive showing OF so many of
his works should prove exceedingly in

much troubled by the generals ami
mostly toward him as by the suspicion
long seething in his mind that Pro-
togueroh also had been implicated in
the conspiracy against the life Of the
nlustrous Alexandroff. Why did not the
assassins murder the general as well?
Like Alexandroff, he had repudiated his
signature to the manifesto. He was
with AlexandroR when the latter was
shot. The assassins could have done
away with him without any difficulty.
Secretly the young revolutionary had
been making his investigations and coll
Letting data which proved undeniably
that Protogueroff was the arch con-
could Michailod do about It? He could
not shoot colleague who had been
elected by the supreme revolutionary
congress to his place of leadership and
who technically enjoyed equal authority
with him! Michailof decided to mark
time until the next convention. Then
he would lay before that august body
the whole damning Information.
But Protogueroff got wind Of all this
and did his best to prevent the conven-
ton from convening Months passed.
The mandate Of the acting committee
had long expired. Still no convention.
AAC eSOAftOy, VA s1AAC 4lLAAO was dlulO6t
completely paralyzed.
Then something happened. On the
evening of July z; 1926, while protoe1lei
rolf was returning to his hiding place
in the Bulgarian capital he was shot
from ambush, together with his body
guard. Immediately Mfchailoff issued
communique declaring that indis-
putable proof of the generals part in
the Alexandrof assassination and other
considerations dictated by the highest
interests of the Macedonian cause had
made the execution of the general in
evitahle.
A new and more acute crisis now de-
veloped in the ranks of the Imro. Not
a few who had despised the general
while he was alive, but who at the same
time looked with no approving eye on
Michailoff's emergence to leadership
turned coats and Joined with the group
that bewailed Protogueroff's death. As
a result there are now virtually two
autonomist factions fighting desperate
internal battle for survival.
Michailof has the power, right or
wrong. The youth of Macedonia is with
him; the strength of the organization is
on his side. In addition, he has the
moral support of the majority of Mace
domains, whether still in the homeland
or away from 1t, as are the half MIL
lion immigrants in Bulgaria. He is q
modest man. At times, it is true, he
has not taken his chieftainship so mod
estly and has behaved like a dictator
but his sincerity and devotion to the
Macedonian cause are unimpeachable.

ments-are superbly drawn, and his
placement of trees in landscape is ex-
ceptionally knowing. From the technical
standpoint, collectors enjoy and appre-
ciate his beautiful rendering, his de-
hghtful combinations Of pure etching
and drypoint.
So excellent Is Mr.. Burr's work that
great foreign galleries, such as the Ma
tional Gallery Of London, have standing
orders for his prints in order to secure
first impressions. He is represented in
the Bibliotheque Rationale, the Luxem-
bourg and other famous collections, and
his work is much sought by private coll
lectors. Despite this fact, Mr.. Burr has
never charged high prices for his prints;
therefore those of slender means may
enjoy possession.
For the most part the etchings and
drypoints included in the present exhi-
bition are Of Western scenery. but the
few exceptions are notable, such, for ex-
ample as Misty Day-Paul's Wharf,

entrance fee is charged.
A review of this exhibition will be
given In these columns later, when
prize awards will be announced.

angle, and it is earnestly to be hoped
that funds will shortly become available
for its erection. The United States Is
today the richest Nation In the world
and almost the only one which ap-
parently gives no recognition, through
appropriation for purchase and support,
to the place Of art In national life.

within the last five years.
Mr.. Burr, 1t will be remembered, first
won distinction as an illustrator. 1t was
he who illustrated the Heber Bishop
book on Jade, one Of the most magnih-
cent publications that has ever been
issued. An obstinate attack of grippe
induced him to go to Colorado and
though in the high attitudes Of our
great West he has recovered his health.
he has never returned to the East for
more than a passing visit.
Mr.. Burr is one OF the few who have
been able to picture the unique scenery
of our great Southwest so that one feels
both its vastneSs and its intimate sig
nif1cance. His works are invariably
dramatic, but they are never false in
note. His trees-especially those that
