Story of A
Bear

Strange but interesting read
ing for city folk is Dorr G..
Yeager's "Scarface."
Unlike the metropolitan vision
that this title arouseS is the one
Mr.. Yeager sees. It is the tale
of a grizzly bear. A silver tip
and a king dethroned.
Simply as if he were writing
the biography of human, the
story of the bear is unfolded.
His birth, early childhood,
youth, and the days of his prime
are carried on much in the true
geographic style.
Behind this story is the strug-
gle of mankind in its battle
against nature and the elements
that were the true habitue Of
the monarchs of the mountains.
Mr.. Yeager writes in a clear,
simple style that will make the
book a delight for children as
well as for adults who have a
liking for nature in its bitterest
moods lurking in the back Of
their brains.
Careful attention to detail
and a sense of touch for the
humorous as well as the dra-
matte make the volume well
worth the time for those inter-
eSted in animals,

The usual month-long exhibit
lions on the second floor of the
library at Eighth and K SITS. N.
W., will continue during the 1885
SO season, but unlike their prede.
cessors in other years, not a single
solitary piece of work, not even a
pencil drawing, will see the light
of day unless it is the work Of T.
Washington artist.
This is distinctly an innovation,
but Miss Lewis thinks it's a good
idea.
In past years, the library exhibit
tons have drawn on the work OF
artists the country over. 1t didn't
matter where they came from,
just so their work was good.
Specially Prepared
But numerous inquiries at the
Public Library about local artists
prompted Miss Lewis to turn the
1886 season over to them.
Miss Lewis proudly says that the
library this season will be repre-
Sented not only by good shows
"but by good people"
Water colors, etchings, litho-
graphs, oils and even photographs
will be included in the monthly
shows throughout the season.
The work will be prepared espe-
cially for the exhibitions by the
artists, Miss Lewis explains, with
the result that all the shows will
be Of entirely new work.
Says Miss Lewis:
eve want to call the attention
Of WashingtOnianS to their own
painters and print-makerS. We
have discovered some up-and-
coming artists whom we believe
ought to be given q break.
"Of course, there are q lot
more good artists in washington
than we will be able to handle,
but we are going to do our best"
All of the artists who will be
represented in exhibitions have re-
quested the shows, Miss Lewis ex-
plains. Most of them have had
exhibitions elsewhere in the coun'
try, but have never had the oppor-
tunity of a "one-man" show in
their home town.
The first show next month will
show colored prints, to be followed
in october by the water colors Of
Rowland Lyon, well known local
artist.
