I ART AID Ea ARTISTS' VHITE

Mr. Connor has had several canvases "The Sketch Book," edited and in town for the past week or two, published by Catherine E. Cook, of done recentty, one of which was ex- Chicago, is a magazine for art stuhibited in Morris's window for a few dents everywhere and an invaluable days but which has since been taken publication of its sort. From a small out, all four of the pictures having beginning a few years ago with merebeen taken to Mr. Bundy's studio forily a local field, it has been enlarged a short time. These are among the ' and improved until it is now of nastrongest Mr. Connor has ever paint- 1 tional scope and import and a maged, some of the local artists regarding azine all art students should have the large canvas exhibited in Morris's each month. It is well put up, with window as equaling his "Woodland excellent typographical effects and Memory," which such an impression finely reproduced illustrations, the latat Tomlinson Hall a couple of years ter embodying work done by students ago, and which was purchased by an in various leading art schools of the art lover in Indianapolis, this picture r country and is interesting for corn-

having been one of those reproduced . in the writer's article anent the Richmont Group published in "The Art Interchange," in October last, the reproduction occupying an entire page in that publication. "Woodland Memory," was, pei-haps, a trifle happier in composition than the picture recently painted, but the latter is, if possible, more virile than the former canvas. Mr. Conner, with magnificent disregard of ordinary canons in composition has here produced a picture with a subject very few trained artists would have selected, or dared select, a pool in the foreground, which is really the pivot upon which the whole picture swings, being somewhat obscured by a portion of the bank brought round into the immediate fore, making the effect a trifle bizarre. Notwithstanding this, the picture possesses astounding strength, handled with that amazing and paradoxical combination of breadth and detail characterise of this artist, and pulsating with sentiment, the very spirit of the deep, cool, dark woods, radiating from the canvas. Of the other three canvases the daring use of color is chiefly remarkable, Mr. Conner's theories as to the handling and use of color being original and carefully worked out. There is one in which a red barn occupies the center of the middle fore which is quite as delightful, in its way, as anything Mr. Connor has yet done, the color of this barn, being a sort of delicious timestained rose-pink, which makes a dazzling spot of color in an otherwise colorful composition. These are as good bits of work as have ever come from Mr. Conner's brush and should be seen bv all his admirers. Perhaps Whitman's interesting couplet if any of Whitman's chaotic output could ever be dignified by the word "couplet," "Do I contradict myself? Very well, then, I contradict myself, "I am large I contain multitudes," was never more pronouncedly exemplified than in the personality of Ruskin, than whom no one was ever more delightfully, daringly, whymsically in

With consistency the great soul has simply nothing to do," manifest in the following quotation from a let- , it i ter recently published in the "Atlantic Monthly," in a series which has came out in that magazine: "I am tormented," he writes, "by what I cannot get said nor done,I want to get all the Titians, Tintorets, Paul Veroneses, Turners, and Sir Joshuas in the world into onegreat fire-proof, Gothic gallery of marble and serpen tine. I want to get them all perfectly engraved. I want to go and draw all the subjects of Turner's 1900 sketches in Switzerland and Italy, elaborated by myself.. I want to get everybody a dinner who hasn't one. I want to macadamize some new roads to heaven with broken fools' heads; and I want, to hang up some knaves out of the way, not that I've any dislike of them, but I think it would be wholesome for them and for other people, and that they would make good crows' meat. I want to play play all day long and arrange my cabinet with new white wool. I want something to amuse me when I am tired. I want Turner's pictures not to fade. I want to be able to draw clouds and to understand how they go and I can't make them stand still nor understand them they all so sideways. Farther, I want to make the Italian industrious, the American quiet, the Swiss romantic, the Roman Catholics rational, and the English Parliament honest and I can't do anything, and I don't understand why I was born." "And I want to hang up some knaves out of the way, not that I have any dislike of them, but I think it would be wholesome for them and good crow's meat," is especially delicious, ; , . . . ,

parison as well as accomplishment

By addressing "Sketch Book," Chicago, 917 Fine Arts Building, full information can be had. Notwithstanding the vogue of golf the past few years, and the fact that for a while it almost entirely superceded the interest in tennis, and the national games at Newport, interest in the latter game has reasserted itself the past season 'or two, especially last year when the Engiish champions, the Dougherty brothers, came to this country and took the cup back, with the title of national champions in doubles. They did not, for some reason, return this season, the matter went by default and Wright and Warde, the eastern champions,and Lit tie and Collins, the Westerners, did battle at Newport with the Eastern men victorious altho' they had a stiff fight for the honors. Collins of Chicago is a wonderful player and has been prominent in tennis tournaments and important events in that sport for a number of years past and it may be interesting to know that he is the son-in-law of Mr. Charles Henry Coffin, formerly of this city. More Westerners should compete for the national championship in the "all comers" at Newport each year, making the final result of more truly national scope. A champion has come out of the West among women tennis players with a vengeance, Miss May Sutton, of Pasadena, having recently vanquished every exponent and carried back west with her the women's tennis championship of America. Miss Sutton defeated, Collier's says, "with ridiculous ease, every opponent who had the temerity to meet her," and in the first tournament she entered, that of the open meeting for the women's championship "of America, held at Wissahickon Heights, near Philadelphia, defeated every opponent without the loss of a set. She has been champion of the Pacific slope for four years and is now but seventeen years of age. She is solidly built and seem- , ingly of exhaustless strength as it is evenness and tirelessness of her . , n t,:p i, tentics. She comes of a family of m. e x tennis players, having four sisters older than herself who play tennis unusually well another sister, Miss Violet Sutton, having won the Southern Cal ifornia championship in .1899 There is nothing, after all, that so commands admiration as the doing of a thing better than any one else can do it, especially in the domain of sports, and Miss Sutton is the deserving recipient of all the plaudits given her. Richmond at one time had a player of championship posssibilities in Mr. Walter Cain, who played a remarkable bame one the admiration and des pair of all local opponents, and the marvel of visitors. Mr. Cain, howev er, has not played recently, with the exception of an exhibition game on the Country Club Courts a vear or so ago, and it is to be deplored that he should not have continued in a game in which he gave such brilliant promise. Perhaps the best tennis ever played in Richmond was played on the Earlham Courts at the time Mr. Cain and Mr. Seaton did sueh fine local work, altho' some good tennis has been played within the past year or two at the Country Club, which has two of the finest courts ever made in this citx- Golf, however, has occu pied the attention of the members of the club almost exclusively, altho' Mr. Dudley Elmer shows almost as much form on the courts as he does on the links. Mr. Elmer certainly has the making of more than a state champion in golf, as the steadiness and evenness of his game are the same qualities which have won for Travis, the present amateur national champion, in his several successful con tests for the cup, Mr. Elmer's admirable game and the ease with which

he wins from his opponents calling for local plaudits. Any one who does

anything as well as Mr. Elmer plays golf should have a wider audience than that bounded by the State. Mr. Goeser, the Cincinnati artist who has been with the local painters some days past, has returned home, Mr. McCord coming up to spend the day shortly. The local artists have been painting all summer in the environs of the town and regard the results as successful, the work done, they think, being among the best yet from the brush of any of the members of the Richmond Art Club. Mr. Forkner and Mr. Pierce are back again in the "cabin" South of town, where they expect to remain yet some weeks. Met at Brookville. The annual convention of the Christian Endeavor societies composed of Franklin, Decatur, Wayne, Fayette and Union counties, held at Brookville Wednesday and Thursday of this week, closed niter a very successful and profitable meeting TLursday night. William H. Elliott and family, of Newcastle, will soon ret tit n frow Porto Rico to make that place their permanent home. Sunday School Convention. Boston township Sunday schools will hold their next quarterly convention and basket dinner at Orange church, August 21st. Everybody is invited. Convention to begin at 9:30 a. m., with Sunday school lesson, followed )y convention sermon by Rev. Henry Lusing. A full program has been arranged for the afternoon. Malaria. So many have been cured of mala ria, ague, chills and fever, by Phen-a-mid Tablets, that we want every suf ferer toknow their efficacv. The following statements are taken from letters received from prominent physicians. Leland Williamson, M. D., of Yorktown, Ark., writes: l nnd vour hen-a-mid a very admirable remedy, especially at this time of year, when malaria and other fevers are so prevaent." Dr. N. Guice, of Ingleside, Miss., states: "Phen-a-mid is an ideal anti pyretic. It does not depress the heart. Have just discharged six cases of ty-pho-malarial fever, running from 1421 and 30 days, and as a fever-reducer, it is the best I have ever used in a practice of 28 years." Hundreds of letters of like charac ter prove the value of Phen-a-mid in malaria. Phen-a-mid the great pain destroy er, is a positive cure for all forms of malaria, and also for Headache, Neuralgia, . Rheumatism, Sciatica, Colds, etc. Phen-a-mid is put up in tablet form. 25 cents a bottle at all druggists, or jy mail from the manufacturers, Os-bom-Colwell Co., 4G Cliff St., New York. OASTORIA.
