%indly ehadows of the good, and the effect is most harmonious and pleasing The cities outside of Omaha do not occupy a8 much space as ft was believed that they | would. Indeed, with a_ single excoption it 18 an Omaha exhibit. This single exception is one of interest Miss Elizaveth, who has charge of certain lines of art study in the Lincoln Polytechnic Institute, has an attrac- tive collection. Miss Tuttle has been a student in Chicago Art Institute and ls pro- nounced by artists as very promising indeed. | Considering that she Is searcely more than a girl her style, both In water colors and olls, & very strong and effective. Miss Snowdon has several pretty pieces. ®After the Opera”™ shows the discarded bou- quet, the opera glasses and other parapher- nalla thrown upon the tabte. Her fruit plece of grapes looked pecullarly cool and deli- | clous, as the hot southwest wind with its of blinding dust beat at pane and is an excellent plece of work rances Mumaugh, whose work Is 80 well known in Omaha, has two landecapes handled in a characteristic manner and two attractive fruit pleces. | Mrs, Catlin shows a pleture ea'led “Fun and Fright,” which Is a copy from Chicciri in the Corcoran gallery at Washingten, 1. C Also a landscape painted from nature, ““Green ort Harbor, L. L,' several studies in still life and a portralt of Emma O, 4 A study called “A Character from the Mis- ®ourj Bottoms,” is one of the most interest- ing things shown. _ The title explains Itself, but the picture must be seen to be appre- clated. There ay be ar faults, but the “Character from the Bottoms™ is before you. And such a character! No! Its not a pretty picture! Souls that are cramped and perverted ars not beautiful, and the bodies through which they are known are not fal to see. Mrs. R. A. Willis, the artist, has done much in this study. Her head of an Italian girl is also a study from life. MANY OTHER PICTURES, Albert Rothery's “After the Bath” Is the only study from the nude exhibited. Beside this he has two sketcnes in the style of (he impressionist’'s school—one is of the “Smelter at Work” and the other “From My Window.” The latter Is an especlally pretty and re freshing scene. one of Omaha's as pirants for artistic excellencs has made a more thorough and rapid progress in the past few years than has Mr. Rothery. Mrs, 0. M. Carter has a very good study of roes. Mrs. A. T. Swick shows cne charming little plece entitled “A Sunny Corn-r.” In Mr. Swick's little picture the sun sh'nes j st as bright in the corner of the mo en Kitchen and the capped and aproned oll ialy looks Just as snug as In a setting of older fashions. A flerce Bengal tiger glowers from be- tween iron bars. The b rs sre r al ircn, the tiger the creation of brush and tube. This 18 the work of a Sister of Provii-nce, in a Catholic school in Vigo county, Indiana. I 1s painted upon doesk n. This sam> institu tion placed some very excelent work in ihe school exhibit departm nt. Ths penmansh p of the class of '95 was of an especialy ex- ecllent character. Miss Annie Nelson shows reie-al plec:s reful work in fruit and still-life study. John Harrol {: one of the amatru's who s Just now exciting inter:st. Mr. H rrol is by trade a heuse painter and dec raor In h's leisure moments he has been work ng at stud'es in oils. His fruit pizce is good, the #tudy In still lite showing much more than' ordInary artistic imagi al on Ono little picture deserves mention rather perhaps by reason of Its subject than its artistic merits. It is a Nebraska sod hoase, executed by Emily Dray In water colors Miss Tuttle has already been mentioned in this department. Miss Helen Baum has a larga and attractive col- lection. One piece that §s especially notice- :blo 18 a bunch of yellow and brown, or per- hips brosze cirysahiiemun A sian a kitchen table, showing some savory looking onlons, together with ths proper utensils for cooking, is another good study. All of Miss Baum's works attract much notice. Miss Fannic Bachman shows some careful work in both pastel and water color. Miss Nannie R. Watson of Brownsville, Neb., has on exhibition a dainty and original design for wall paper. It includes the scparate patterns fon ceiling, border and wall. Miss Watson Is but 13 years old, ‘which adds to the interest in her effort. A plece of the common purple thistle by Miss Milestone is one of the dainty bits of coloring among the collection of water colors, Miss Milestone hi everal other pleces. Mrs. E. F. Stimmel shows an excellent study of nasturtiums. Miss Pearl Hartman has several charming flower studies. Mre. Wisley has scveral good studies. CLEVER WORK OF ARTISTS. Mr. T. Harrison, a young man scarcely 19 years of age, has a delightful collection of his work on exhibition. In several pleces he essays the impressionist’s style. One picture “In the Ofchard,” is very attractive, both as to the hanflling of the landscape and the wor' on the figure of the young girl. Another little water sketch Is excellent. Even i flower study Mr. Harrison is not to be out done. His study In violets, if not character- fstic, is pleasing. Mrs. Lydia McCague, who has for a year or more been makirs a study of designing in stained glass windows, has two or threc charmingly dainty pleces. Considerable space is given up to the Ne braska Ceramle club. This club, which con- slsts of about fifty members, was formed be- cause it was easier for a c'ub than an fadivid- ual to gain access to the World's fair. This then, is its first exhibit. In this short time the general character of the work has ma terlzlly improved. In the present showing it is dificult to find anything that can unre- ervedly be pronounced poor. Outside of maha there are about twelve members. | Hastings, Fremont and Plattsmouth are rep- | resonted. - All members of the club are very | ambitions and enthusiastic. Perhaps the most valuable and beautifu! Plece of china on exhibition is a punc' bow! decorated by Mrs, Harry Ford. T'e sketch- ing of gilt rose leaves on the inside of the dish is very dainty and the exquizite color fng of tho dark red roses and d:licata haw thorn blossoms without make a chirm combination, This bowl is va'ued at $70. Next to this Is a jardinier, decorited with Mlacs. A prettier effect could ro: be fmag- ined. It is the work of Mrs. Morrill Mrs. Morrill and Mrs. Ford have several other handsome plcees. Mrs, Werner has a very da'nty chocolate sct. A beautiful rose plajue is the work of Miss Lumbard of Fremont. Miss Milestono bas an exquisite p'ate decorat-d with chrys:in- themums. Mrs. Ed Pericct is one of the mcst careful and dexterous workers of the whole club. Her berry dish Is a gemi. Mrs, Mor Tow's roses are especially diinty. Mre Charles Downs has & very pretty choco'ate set. One of the daintiest of the several exquisite chocolate pots is the work of Miss Georgia Krug. Mrs. Bockman, Mrs, Tom Orr, Mrs. G. L Gilbert, Mrs. O. Hoftman ard Mrs. Lund are othe's of the excellent workers who hive work on exhibition. Mrs. Lund's specialty is figure work. The ecity otographers have addsd much to this exiibit by the exce'lency of their own eollcetions. Mr. Sharp, an amateur in photog- raphy, has a collection of photos that rival the profossionals, Mr. Raymond shows some very valuable wases and artistic lamps and cut glass. Over his collection hangs one of Brown's famous paintings, “The Tr'ck at Cards." Great credit must be given to Mr. Lininger and his assistants for the unquestioned suc- cess of this part of the fair. g Prizes to the Textlle Workers.

It Is certainly fmpossible to Imagine an improvement to the beautiful cloth. It is the proverty of Mrs. W. B. Fordyce.

There were not chzirs envugh in the tent seat the spectators at the baby show vestorday afternoon when that int-resting exhibition opened, and before it had closed the crowd attracted reached a considerab! distance from the tent, nearly as far as th Agricultural building. Yesterday was “Boy Baby day,” and it seemed as though all the mothers of*the future presidents and generals had brought their youthful sons to he fair to be display:d along with other prize winners. Stili, it was a geod natured srowd, and there was but little crying or sther infantile noise. Possibly a fear of hurting their chances for first prize had ho eflect of silencing a majority of thom. After dus tigation into the merits o he next century's politicians, the first prize 1 comfortable looking bed and a gold pin vas awarded to Richard Burke, a 3-months d of great weight. It cannot be said that his award met with great favor. “The little boy in blue” was plainly the favorit vith the spectators, and it Is said he was not given first prize because he had th misfortune to be six months old:r thar Master Burke. The nzme of “the little boy in blue" was Archie Rainey, Jr., and he wat awarded second prize, a baby carriage. Ken neth Young Craig secur:d a baby’s chair and 1 gold ring as the third prize. There werc nineteen entries yesterday, but it is not probable that there will be that many today Tho exhibit today will be of twins and trip- lets; o far there has been one entry made in each of these classes. The baby show this afternoon will undoubtedly be as in- teresting as any exhibit on th: grounds, Tuesday’s winners were as follows: First prize, a handsome cloak, Baby Broadhurst second prize, baby age, Irene Harrls third prize, bonnet, Tinnie Coffman. Besides these three young women, there were twenty- four who did not draw prizes, Prizes to iee Growers, Judging in the bee and honey department progressed rapidly yesterady and was com- pleted, the only premium remaining yet to be announced being that for extracting.

The Dalry bullding, as neat in Its con- struction and as wholesome In its contents as a bar of cholce butter, roofs one of the smallest departmental exhibits on the grounds. The south end is occupled by the creamery and private dairy exhibits, which are ai- most solely in the form of butten in the tub and bar. No artistic work has been at- tempted In the congealed product of the cow, the ‘only plece at all calculated to take t €ye being a minlature creamery in opera- tion, fronting samples of the product of the Falrmont creamery, In the north end is a variety of cakes, cookles and breads, the contribution chiefly of local housewives. All other parts of the bullding are taken up with an exhibition of plaining to dalrymen and farmers the good points in their contrivances, | Of stratght dairy products there are but twenty-two on exhibition, those making the most prominent showings being the Fair mont, West Point, Henderson, Emerson and Tablo Rock creameries, Luce & Johnson o Logan, Ta., and Carl Clausen of Alden, Ia Luce & Johuson show some very fine sam ples of Jersey butter.

Mica from the Bluek Hills, There is one exhibit in the Agricultural bullding which, while it cannot be prop:rly termed agricultural, is attracting a good deal of attention. This Is the display of Majors, Vickers & Chaplin, who have a large quantity of Black Hills mica. This Is comparatively a new product and the hibitors assert that it will soon be an portant commercial factor. Previously seven-eighths of the mica that is used in this country has been fmported, but they say that the Black Hills deposit is suffi cient to supply all the needs of the U States. The oroduct is used for 344 distinct purposes, most of which are connected with electrical and other mechanic The exhibit {s probably one of the most valuable at the fair. The chunks of mica are worth $10 a pound and the whole exhibit is valued at $5,000. When the product is ground it makes a fine white powder, which is extensively used as a lubricator.
