TO ARRIVE. ™ FAMOUS AMERICAN ART GALLEBIES Copyright, 1900, by Seymour Eaton. - The concluding article of Dr. F. M. Parrott's study of Edgar Allan Poe, which would have appeared on Septem- ber 20 had it not been misiatd, will be published next Sunday morning, Sep- tember 20. The director of The Call's Home Study Circle apologizes to the readers for the unintentional delay. el | ° VIL (Concluded.) The fact that the Corcoran Gallery of Art is located in the nation’s capital, in Washington, gives it a prominence which its contents do not altogether justify. The walls are hung with works which, with perhaps the exception of a dozen can- | vases, are by modern men, and there is no pretense of a comprehensive history of the different schools of art. Of these modern men not all are satisfactory, and a considerable proportion of the pictures represents rather the fashionable art of the dealers’ shops of years past and the meretricious if popular output of foreign studios. But a number of the wqrks are famous through reproduction and other- wise, and some of these are to be taken seriously, while nearly all are interesting. The “Passing Regiment,” by the French military painter, Edouard Detallle, is a fine composition’ and wonderfully drawn and painted; the “Helping Hand,” by Re- | nout, has the touch of buman nature and is skillfully done, while Muller's “Char- lotte Corda with its sentimental and | pathetic figure, is much admired.
