Alexander, president of the National Academy of Design, a lay member, Dr. Coffin, showed an X-ray picture of the interior of Mr. Alexander's skull. What we would like to know is, Did he find there a single valid reason’ for the eminent artist's confident presumption, this; oceasion, that New York City is going to give the Academy a choice site for a new building— preferably the little that is left of announced on Bryant Park, at Forty-second street and Sixth avenue?

The Fifth ‘svenue half of Bryant Park, he points out, is already occupied by the new Public Library, so why shouldn’t the Academy have ff the remaining Sixth avenue square? ‘ Because, for one thing, the Library is a great public institution, ‘whereas the Academy is a close corporation, having but scant regard for and no responsibility toward the public. Moreover, the Library Ths not usurped any existing park space, but only replaced a disused oir. oN Can any one show us why the Academy really needs or deserves new tabernacle?’ At its winter exhibition now on at the Fine Arts ‘ Building in Fifty-seventh street it is showing 276 paintings and 144 ya of sculpture—and little if anything in the whole lot that can tanked above third-class in either artistio or commercial impor- fance The committee reports that in all 1,318 works were submitted s0, that nearly 900 were either re- cies or might as well have been, cause there was not room enough {6 place them.
