#2 THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 188i—TWENTY PAGES. ART IN CHICAGO. Some of the Pictures Exhibited at the Cosmos Rooms. Four English Beauties and Other Notable Works in Crayon. A Collection of Water-Colors That Was Gobbled-Up on the Way. Sketches in Oil from Nature—Gallery and Studio Gossip. . “Whe Pictures at the Cosmos. ‘The pictures exhibited in the Cosmos rooms pre few but choice. They are hung each one by itself, as they would be in a private parlor, and show tu excellent advantage. They are mostly the best productions of the best local artists, tho recent exhibition of New York artists at Philadelphia having prevented thom from send- ing anytbing westward, as, they will probably be glad to doa little later. f One of William Hart's little gems, with the softest atmosphere and the brightest suniight, stands on an easel in the Scandinavian room. On another easel is an impression in Diack and white, called “ Morning on the River,” by RW. Wallis, It is very pretty to look at, but, Nke many “impressions,” a little doubtful a5 to meaning. A fine water-color by L.C. Earle, called the “End of the Song,” tells the story of love,a serenade and swift death, with dramatic inter- est. “The Prairie Road,” by George Gay, and a marine showing vessels of Chicago, are among his best works, and have already been de- scribed. Mr. Sloan has a delicate water-color, “Early Spring,” and J. H. Drury a marine entitled “By the Ocean,” showing the motion of the water With figures in the sandy foreground. iss Koupal exhibits her painting of a peas- ant girl called “The Letter,” which bas already been noticed, and Miss Ida Burgess sends as companion piece to it 2 figure of an old emigrant woman sitting upon a blue box, her bundle in. her lap, a green um- brella by her side, and. a weary look upon ker old face, ag she sits patienly “Waiting tor the “rain,” which is the title of the picture. Itisa strong bit of character painting. Under Miss Koupal’s peasant girl hangs one of Reams’ delicious fruit pieces, and on either side of the mantel are two nature sketches in water-color by Mrs. Mury Wright, The mantel itself is surmounted by five elegant French vases from Spiegel's._ ‘George W. Piatt is fepresented by quite alarge scale piece, the melon in which is especially g00d. Mr, Alfred Payne bas an interesting. painting called “The Young Taxidermist.” Mr. Rupert sends bis ‘Mountain Girl,” and Mr. Colby nis Early Autumn,” in which thero is an immense amount of merit. Daniel Kotz shows his very best picture, “On the Kankakee,” and an excetlent smaller one, “Springtime,” showing the sweep of a curving roadway with farm-nouse in the distance. Alex. Schilling sends a new picture represent- ing “Dry Weather”—a sloving hillside with trees and a farmhouse just over the hill, and a beuutiful sky above alt. An evident effort was made to depict the effect of lust summer's drouth upon ficid ard follage, and the result is a rather dreary picture, badly proportioned a3 to size. When there are such beauties in nature, why not look for them, and, having found them, portray what you see with all the power of which you are capable? It seems a waste of . time 10 Javish such good work upon such trivial scenes. - Cyrenius Hall nasa fine autumn scene, Mr. Schwerdt send3 av exceilent portrait of his pretty daughter, and MissShaw is represented by her tatest. work, called “ After a Shower." This picture is painted ina very low key, and thereis a harmony of color ahout it that is pleasing, but sitting across the room from it we de! yy pers fon who does not possess:2 stronz imagination to find any meaning in its dark green masses upon either side of what may be a road, but upon closer inspection appears to resolve itself Into a qersh. The dark green masses are possibly bushes, but of this we cannot be sure. Trees are sharply outlined against the distunt horizon, and dense. heavy clouds roll above, completing A not, unpleasant “impression,” but never a picture, unless we aro viewing 2 scene ona cloudy night. Oné ot the most effective bits of water-colors secn lately is a brilliant little aurumn landscape by I. F. Spread. ‘Mr. Vanderpool exhibits a crayon head..and Ellingson another crayon study of rocks, .. D. F. Bigelow husa fine little picture of * A ‘Landseape with Cattle,” and Mr. Collis exhibits two very good landscapes. Mr.G. W. Platt also exhibits two pictures called * The Rendezvous” and * ThoEmigrant.” x Interesting Crayon Portrait Work. Some specimens of portraits in crayon shown by Mr. William A; Duncan in bis studio at the Grand Pacific Hotel are attracting a great deal of attention by reason as well of the peculiar interest attaching to the subjects as the strength and skill shown in the execution of the pictures. ‘These have been brought here by Mr. Duncan, who bas until recently had his headauarters in New York, not for the purpose of exhibition so attract the multitude, but as samples of his ability as a crayon artist, The portraits in question are those of the fdur celebrated En- Siish beauties—Mrs, Langtry, Mrs. Price, the Countess of Dudley, and the Countess of Lons- daic—and are ail enlarged to life size from photographs taken in London. While the fam- ous quartet bave no just grounds of complaint as to the manner in which their fascinations have been portrayed by Mr. Duncan, who has done bis sbare with marked skill, there is nothing especially overpowering to die senses in these four specimens of British beauty. They gre no handsomer than a hundred ladies one might pick out in Chicago; not a whit more high-bred in their stamp, nor more lovely in form or feature. There is, in fact, not one of the four who can stand comparison with an ex- quisit picture of an American lady drawn in ron by Mr. Duncan and shown alongside of England's “big four.” -We refer to the portrait of Mrs. C. C. Waite, of New York,whose husband is the son of Chiet-Justice Waite, and who is the sister of $Irs Hugh J. Jewett, wife of the rallroad meagnate. Mrs. Waite’s portrait is drawn upon a slizhtly-tinted paper, theelfect of which istecive a tinertrans- parency and roundness to the flesh than is ob- tained upon the clear white paper. Mr. Duncan has also been intrusted with the work of making a portrait of Mrs, Kate Chase Sprague, but onl: on condition that the picture shall not be ex: hibited when completed. None of this lad; photographs are to be had “fort the celebrity photographers having in vain Eought 10 add her pleture te their. stocks in trade. Mrs. Langtry is said to be a most difficult sub- fect to treat on canvas. Millais has twice at- tempted and twice tailed to reproduce ber feat- satisfactorily in oif colors, and is naw cno- xaxed in his third essay. The photograph from Which Mr. Duncar worked is the product of the niuth effort ufter eight failures, She is shown standing in the open air, in a posture suggestivo of quiet contemplation, her downesst eyes intept upon a dove which is bound to ber wrist’ with a Iden chain. ‘The dress is of a light, quiet shade, and Its fash- jon in keeping therewith, and the face has an unspoiled, gentle, childlike expression which is dcewedly captivating, but by no means ruvish- ingly beautiful. Perbaps the most attmictive picture of the four is that of Mrs. Price, who is easily the prettiest womun of the lot. ‘She is ehown in winter costume, und the realistic rep- resentation of the Yurs ana the crisp, cold at- amosphere are highly creditable to the art Although but: a short time in Chicago, Mr. Duncan has made his way rapidis, He has al- ready executed for the Union League Club a Very strong portrait of ex-President Coburn, und hus one nearly tinished of Mes. J. T. ityer- son, and is engaged upon pictures of Mrs. S. M. Nickerson and son, Mrs. Cyrus H. Adams, Mrs. W. McCormick, and other well-kuown Chicago people. Mr. Duncan bas secured tho use of parlor No. 3 at the Grand Pacific, and, bexinning tomorrow, will set. apart fur the re- ception of visitors the hours from 2 to 6 o'clock exch afternoon, reserving the earlier part of the day for bis work. Some Pictures That Fell by the Way- aide. Cincinnatl is artistic; Cincinuati is the Athens of America. We acknowledge it in a spirit of humility and contrition. She makes the finest puitery in the country, and she builds the finest kins in which to fire it, “This we huve tong known and deplored, but now she has given us the “most unkindest cut of all.” Tho Fanning coliccnon of water-colors, which bas been an- nounced as in the process of necumulation, 2s crossing the water, as having reached our shores, as on tho way to Chicago, in short, as a choice treat on which we have kept our eyes for the last six months, paused for, ad miration in Cincinnati, and, to and be- ‘hold! not one is left to tell the tale. Our appreciative neighbors secured every one of the 700 pictures—more than was sold in Xew York and Boston together—puying there- Tor the liberal sum of $15,000, and Col. Fan- ning has telegraphed to us that we—that is Chi- caro—must wait while be goes back to Europe jo high clee to secure another collection. which he promises to bring directly bere in just sixty days from date. But we buve no security that he will ever reach bere if Cinciunati should . happen to need more pictures by that time. in consequence of the disappointment: to Mr. O'Brien, who had made arrangements to exhibit “the collection, that gentleman is now: looking about for. other holiday attractions. He has at present two. fine _ water-colors —one by ~ Hispaleto, a fine foreign work, and another ~by Drummond, an English artist of note, showing the furrowed, ‘weather-beaten fuce of un old_ fellow with a pipe in his mouth, a handkerchief tied -looscly. nbout his neck, and an old tur cap upon bis head. Let any'one who thinks there is no strength in water-colors go and look at this. Studies in OH. H. Rolph, a resident of St. Charles, who will hereafter have a portion of D;-F. Bigelow's studio every Friday and Saturday, has recently returned froma late ‘autumn sketching tour among the Allecheny Mountains, and brings with him a wealth of nature in some of his. studies made in the Laurel Hills and along the “Btue Juniata” -and the Conemaugh Itiver. The olf studies, some sixteen in number, are Intended as memoranda for larger Pictures, but we doubt if enlargement will im- Prove them; so true are they to nuture that one would not see them changed. Many an artist may: paint as faithfully as ur, Ralph, but few have that poetic instinct which’ prevents them from accepting any but the most picturesque and favorable aspects of nature. He does not idealize or compose, but seeks and portrays only what is beautiful and lovely. From the oll studies four were selected by Miss Marie A. Brown, from which the artist will immediately prepare pictures forthe “Cosmos,” of which she is the mannger. The first is a “Glen in Penngylvaniz,” sbowing a careful study of trees—a beech around which twine the serlet leaves of the Virginia creeper, a birch with its wolte bark, und the dark green spikes of the hemlock, all outlined against u clear blue sky with drifting white clouds. The second {3 cailed * Rocks vn the Conemaugh Kiver,” and shows a wooded bank from which jutout rugged rocks throwing their soft gray Tetlections in the stream below. Another charm- ing little study is entitled “ Sunshine Among the Beeches,” and stil! another “ The Silver Cas- cade,” where copious raius buve mazgnitied the stream intoa loud and white-robed waterfall. These four, which will soon be shown at the “Cosmos,” aro but a small portion of the many beautiful studies in oil, together with about fitty pencil sketches, from which Mr. Rolph will dur- ing the winter produce tnished pictures, Fine Engravings. There is now on exhibition at Jansen, Mc- Clurg & Co.'s the finest collection of engravings and ctchings ever shown in this city. They were collected in Europe during the past sum- mer by Mr. Fred Keppel, of New York, whose gallery at 23 East Sixtecnth street, New York, bas for many years been the resort of all the print collectors in this country. The present exhibition is remarkable for the vast number of brilliant proofs in first, second, and third stages, and many of these are of great rarity. There are several very clear impressions of works by Albert Direr, including a beautiful one of the celebruted “ Melancholia,” which sbows the comparative antiquity of the 13-14-15 puzzle. ‘Among the etchings by Rembrandt are the * Marriage of Jason and Creus,” “Chriat in the Garden,” “Death of the Virgin,” and Christ Healing the Sick." Thereure about a dozen portraits of Napoleon, engraved from the paint- ings by Gros, Delaroche, Charlet, Bernardi, David, and others. Ja examples by Nanteuil, Wille, Edelinck, Porporati, Kapheel, Morghen, Foschi, Massard,. Francols, Catrina Piotti, Burger, Miiller, and other masters of the durin, the collection is very rich. Of modern etchings by the ‘best English and French artists the specimens are numerous, the impressions being very clear. —- * ‘The Johnson Colleétion. During the first three days of the week there was offered at nuction sale at 8t Rangolph street the Johnson collection of oil paintings, which ineluded a few meritorious canvases, while the greater number were only of an ordinary char- acter. The importantsales were: “ View Near Underhill, Vt, by C. W. Knapp, $163; * Bloon- light in. Holland,” by Linckow, of Dis- seldorf, $300; “Pleasant Dreams,” by Miller, of Munich, $197.30; “Sunset After Ruin,” by Knapp, $165; “On the Do- churt,”. vy Sayr, of London, 3100; “Cattle at_- Pasture." by Hulk, of London, 310; “Grandpa's Pet,” by Miller, $250; ‘On the Road to Lagensee.” by Sekel, of Paris, ter,” by Staterman, of Munich, ‘$27 aat Dreams," by Miller, $3 “The Propus: by Erdman, of Serlin, $100; ** Happy Days,” by Chapin, 3195; “Playing ‘the Zither,” by Detrez- gur, $100; “ Rural Scene in Holland,” by Linck- ow. $15; “View on the Susquehanna.” by Kuapp, $165. It is the intention of Mr. Johnson to return bere at an early dute with a larger and better collection. Gallery and Studto Notes. Mr. George Upp, a young artist lately of Wash- ington, is looking for an elizible studio, with a view of remaining here, and, judging from a specimen of his work exhibited in the Lydian Art Gallery, be will be a desirable acquisition to the fraternity of which he is amember. His picture is something in te style of J: G. Brown's work, and shows an independent-look- ing little apple-boy, who holds out Jn one hand a specimen of his fruit, with a you-cun-buy-if- you-like sort of an air; and, however disugrec- able people may thivk * Young America" in re- ulity, there seems to exist quite :in adiniration for him when placed on canvas. Gilvert Gaul’s “Cock of the Walk” and J.°G.

Mrs. Green, of the American Art Gallery, is sending out cards for her first public reception, which will occur uext Friday evening, and which promises 10 be a success both trom a social and artistic point of view. There will be gome speaking of an interesting character upon the subject of art by a well-known art lover, and, as ali Mrs. Green's old friends are rallying around her, a pleasant time may be anticipated. Further mention of pictures by Chicago artists will have to be postponed until another time. HH. K Saunders has just finished and now on yiew in his studio the ‘portraits of 2 son and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Clayton. The children are aged 6 and 7 respectively, and are painted in full dgure, with accessories repre- senting un ontdoor scene. He has also nearly finished a full-length tizure of the little daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs, J. S. Carter, and bas on easel a life-size bust of Mrs. Carter. Hoot & Hammoarskold have a very pretty panel of roses by Airs. G. Ross, and also two plaques, upon which. are some unusually good roses, by” Mrs. Holcomb, who has mado a special study of this flower, and reproduces it with a richness of coloring and a crisp, delicate handling not often geen. THE MUTUAL UNION. ‘A Ronto Sclected for Its Underground Wircs-Terms and Conditions of the Grant. Mr. John -O, Evans, the President of the Mutual Union Telegraph Company, and George B.

THOMAS. Somo Speculations as to the Course of the Judicial Conference—The Boctor’s Opinion. s ‘The Judicial Conference to which Dr. Thomas looks for redress. will mect in Terre Haute Wednesday. Whether its sessions will be public or private is unknown, but the impression is that no one will be admitted except tho counsel and the parties, since. no case heard by that body has ever been reported openly; and, be- sides, Bishop Merrill has said that the meetings will probably be secret. Tho conference will convene with twenty-one members (seven cach from the Illinois, Indiana, and Northern Indiana Conferences), which num- ver can be reduced by peremptory challenges, each side objecting to one alternately, until thirteen arc: left. With these the prosecution and defense must be satisfied. Tho. court being made up, the appellant (the defendant in this ense) will move that the appenl be admitted. The prosecution enn object, and, if they do, argument will follow as to whether the appeal shail be udmitted or uot. At the conclusion of the talk, counsel will withdraw, and tho court decide the question by 1 vote. “If the majority say yea, the counsel will be notified, and, on their return, those for: the appellant will stuto— the srounds of their appeal—what -they object to in the findings of Fi court below—and muko their argument. The prosecunon will follow, sus- taining the rulings, and the appellant close the debate. Counset and parties will then retire, and the conference will pass judgment by n majority vote. ‘hey cau ailirin the decision of the lower court, or reverse it, or send the case back for a new trial. It thoy allirm tho de- cision, Dr. ‘'homas will be out of the Church, and cannot wet back. If they reverse it, the charges will full and he be restored. If they send the cuse back, he will be under suspension until tho ext annual conference tries him—stand just where he did after the preliminary examination ut the Centenary Church. Should the Judicial Conference decide not hear the case, the Doctor, of course, continues as naw—expelled from the the Church; and the only thing he can do is to take'up to the General Conference the question whether the Judicial Conference bad the right to refuse to admit bis appeal. IT 1S NOT GENERALLY KNOWN that the judgment of the Judicial Conference is final, There can be no appext to the General Conference except on a question of law. Until a few years ugo the latrer body neardall appeals, but they took up so much cime that the Judicial Conference was created to hear them, and its judgment as to the facts fs final, Fearing, how- ever, that a court composed of a few men and that different courts composed of ditferent bod- iesof men might meke countlicting rulings on the same points, the General Conference pro- vided for an appeal from the decision of a Judi- cial Conference on a question of law in order to. secure’ uniformit; As an error iu the law will not help Dr. Thomas if the facts are sustained, he will not be xpt to go further, ug it would be a waste of time, there being no hope of restoration under such’ circumstances. Lut itis very doubtful if the Judiciu! Conter- ence entertuins his appeal, since the precedents ure all against it, Out of tifteen cases taken up of ministers who preached after the sentence of expulsion was pronounced by an annual confer- ence not a single one was considered by the Judicial Conference. ‘That body has the power |. to hear the appeul of Dr. Thomns, but, in view of the previous refusals in parallel cases, tho impression is that his case will be treated the same ag tho others. Drs. Gurney and Hatfield will leave for Terre. Ruute Tuesday, and be joined there by Dr. Parkhurst, who goes first to Iudianupols to at- tend a religious convention. Dr-Thomus will not attend,as bis presence isnot essential, but the counsel, the Rev. Drs. Miller and Bennett, of lowa, who defended him fn Chi- cazo andat Sycamore, will be there to took after his interests. He is uncertain, in view of his prenching, whether the appeal will be admitted; und, it it Is, he doesn’t think it likely that the decision of the Kock River Conferente will be reversed. He said to a reporter thut the Church pupers bad prejudiced the case. and he thought the lenders in. the Church had decided to make “an example of btm in order to deter others from taking uny liberty in the world of thought, One man bad but little chance of success ligoting a whole orgunization. If he were on trial tor lying, chextinx, or stealing, he would stand a good chance of acquittal, but for heresy there wns go chance tocscape. If the Church were to pursue an ultra-dogmatic course he did not wish to remain with. it. He had always loved the Church, but found there was plenty of room ‘outside of it. LOCAL POLITICS. The Fifteenth Ward HRepublicans Not Satisfied with Their Aldermen—A Hed-Hot Specch by Mr. E. F. Cragin. Amecting of the Fifteenth Ward Kepublican Club was held at the corner of Larrabee and Centre streets last evening, Mr. F. J. Loesch presiding. The question of the usefulness in the Council of Ald. Young and Meyer, which had been be- fore the club at a former meeting, was revived, and it was unanimously decided to appoint a committee to watch the actions of the Aider- men in the Council. Messrs. Arnold, Squire, and Bean were ap- pointed as the committee. ‘ The President introduced Mr. E. F. Cragin, who addressed the club. The speaker said the Fifteenth Ward was represented in the Council and the County Board by mien. who, to say the least, did not represont the honest people of the ward. The voters of the ward had never been of any service to themselves or the interests of the ward, for the reason that the ward bad al- ways been barzained away by “ Boss” Hesing and Conrad Folz two weeks prior to every elec- tion. .He was glud to see tbat during the late county canvas Hesing's grip In, the ward had. been broken and bis henchman, Folz,"*dewned.” They bad pressed too much upon artificial Strength. Iesiug had once had the cheek to enter a meeting of bonest citizens and business: men of the Eighteenth Ward before tho jail- damp was fnirly dry ‘upon bis clothes, and preach honesty to the disgusted hesrers. A criminal might be a Republican. but his polities could not. make him. honest, and he should not be allowed — to concen Knavery in” tho. shelter’ of the purty. In politics, as in business, strict bonesty was the best policy; it made a’ more pronounced and popular political success, and was the means of putting ‘2 better elags of men into the public ollices. In this connection he wished to refer to the Iate CHARGES MADE AGAINST THE WATER OF- = FICE. If that office were thorougbly overhauled, peo- ple would be surprised at the corruption brought to light. Lhe speaker had recently challensed Gen. Lich to aliow 2 unhatavered investiza- tion of the Water-Oth and tne latter by re= fused to turn over keys, books, and accounts to the Committee on Investisution of the Citizens’ Association. Gen. Leib wanted to reassure the public by an -investigation conducted by bim- self. He knew that x legitimate investization by the committee would be impossibte. ‘MMr. Cragin said he bad also been requested to refer to ‘the strect eleaning department. He knew that the department was essentially a po- htieal department, and that as many as five men bad been put to work at once simply on the de- mand of 2 politician; he knew gangs ot twenty- four men working for §2 per day who were not worth altozether $10 in the whole week. He knew the streets were ina terribly unclean and unhealthy condition, and that the city bad paid out $182,000 to keep them in this ‘condition, when they could have been kept jn and in first-cinss shape Carter Harrison y eeted Mayor on the cry. of economy, and be bad been economical and honest as far as.in bis power, but his Democrat- ic education appeared to have had the effect of dwarting bis perceptions as to What constituted honesty und economy. What the city needed was civil-service reform, conducted simply upon honest business prin- cipics. Mr. Cragin thought all appointments should be inade by competitive examination, especially to the Police and Fire Departments, und that each ward should v¢ accorded Its fair ratio of employés in proportion to the population. he Speaker's remarks were jistened to with great interest and frequently applauded. <<< ‘The Romance of 2 Poor Young Man. : New Yor Her dd. Some little time azo Mr. Ashmead Bartlett, 2 young American, gave his hand in marriage to the Haroness Burdett-Coutis, x lady of un- bounded benevelence. There was a disparity between them in fortune and in” years, and malicious tonsues were not slow (0 2s- sail the bridegroom.
