By the 900 tickets soli for the night there was every indication in advance of the complete success of the opening. Society in its greatest artistic phase was splendidly represented, and most of the more promi- nent movers in the world of fashion, dip- lomacy or officiaidom smiled upon each other making the circuit of the different galleries. From an artistic point of view the expectations of those most sanguine as » [to the merits of the exhibition were more than realized, and the enjoyment of all was complete in the highest degree. Mrs. Arch- ibald Hopkins, Mrs. Boardman, Mrs. Hob- son and Mrs. Barney were the hostesses of the evening, while a number of other ladies wore committee badges and looked after the pleasure of the visitors. Among these latter were Mrs. F. B. McGuire, Miss Wil- liams, Mrs. Ffoulke, Mrs. Harriet Blaine Beale and M!ss Gale. There are on the walls of the main gallery canvases, representing old and modern artists. In the water-color section pictures, of minia- tures 153, of laces 25 exhibits, some large collections, of fans 66 and of embroideries and tapestries 30 exhibits, some cohtaining several dozen specimens. Of portraits by contemporary artists these of Mrs. Town- send by Th. Chartran, Mr. S. H. Kauff- mann by J. Edward Barclay, Miss Gale by Moadum Vos, Mrs. A. C. Barney by Hubert Vos, Mrs. Stilson Hutchins by Prince P. Troubetzkoi and of the British ambassadcr and Mrs. T. B. Henderson by Benjamin Constant attracted a great deal of attention. Mrs. Barney, who designed the cover of the catalogue, which is a most necessary accompaniment to the study of the exhibition, has also her portrait hang- ing painted by herself. Among the histori- cal-fans exhibited is one which is inter- esting as a wedding gift to Queen Isabella II of Spain. She presented it to a Sevi lian’s bride. Its present owner is Mr: Leigh French. The painting represents the marriage of Love with Juno, attended by the graces, Hebe and Ganymede. The faces of the principals are portraits of Isa- bella TI and her husband, Don Francisco of Assisi. Brilliants are set in the sticks, which have portraits of the Bourbon fam- ily. Mrs. Audenried exhibits a modern Spanish fan. Mrs. John S. Ward owns the fan whigh belonged to Marie Antoinette, among several others she exhibits, and Mrs. Hobson a fan which belonged to Mrs. Benedict Arnold. Mrs. Townsend exhibits a number of rich hangings of the seven- teenth century of Spanish and Portugu: embroideries and a crimson velvet hanging from the Borghese palace in re ance, Mrs. T. F. Richardson several sixteenth century Italian hangings and Mrs. Belden Noble a chasuble, seventeenth century, em- broidered in gold and colors.

The newspapers have, with very few exceptions, refused to publish anything on our side of the question, or have done so in a way that it has not at- tracted the public notice.

ANGLO-SAXONS WIN THE DAY English and American Sailors Rout a En- They Clean Out Do bers of French, Ger: Hong Kong. VANCOUVER, B. C., April 12—Fourth Officer Hepbern of the steamer Empress of Japan, now in port, tells of a big street fight in Hong Kong. Jvst before the steamer sailed a row occurred in a saloon between Russian and English sailors, A squad of Russian sailcrs on land held a ceuncil of war and hostilities were de- clered against the Anglo-Saxon race. In thirty minutes 400 German, French and Russian sailors had lined three deep along Qveen street, which is twenty-five feet wide, for 100 yards from Joss Temple to the water edge and defied the Yankees and Ichnnie Bulls to break their ranks, jeering them for cowards. The Yankees and Britishers, 150 strong, rot half the number of the enemy, advan ed to the charge, shculder to shoul: some crying “Hail, Columbia” and son “God save the queen.” They drove } a mighty wedge through the mass of for- eigners. The allied German, French and Russian forces were soon surrounded, and in the words of an eye witne the small squad of Anglo-Saxons knocked seven bells ovt ot them.” The police were powerless to tfere. The officers hurried to shore in launches, but the hostilities did not cease till the allied forces cried fot quarter. —_——— For Range Finders. An allotment of £200,000 has been made out of the $50,000,000 emergency appropria- tion for the purchase of 200 Lewis depres- sion range finders. The Secretary of War has approved plans of the board of ord- nance and fortifications for the installation of 500 position finders in the seacoast forti- fications of the country. The first 200 will be divided among the Atlantic coast bat- teries, and when more funds are obtained arrangements will be made for the com- plete installation of position finders throughout the entire system of coast de- fenses, as originally proposed by the Endi- cott board, About one-third of the instru- ments already ordered will be of the emer- gency type and be used in batteries to sup- plement the existing apparatus.
