Mr. Fuchs is not so strong In his psychology as he Is In his decorative treatment, but nevertheless he makes good portraits. Also at Knoedler's are on view thirty-six water colors by H. Anthony Dyer, a New Yorker, who Improves yearly In freedom of handling his material, in pic-turesqueness of outlook and In suavity of style.

Both collections may be seen until January 30. Henry Plympton Spaulding of Boston has for his annual New York display at Klackner's, 7 West Twenty-eighth street, Manhattan, 30 water colors until January 30. Ho adds now to his unusually strong handling of this medium another quality, breadth of style. By this he gets art values that are supposed to be solely possible in oils.

She drew many beautiful pictures of Naples and Sicily, and especially of the country so recently destroyed. The artistic temperament of the Italian was shown by many instances illustrative of It. Mme.

Newhaus talked of the Italians in Brooklyn. She said that if the Italians were taken from the industrial field of New York, the system would go to pieces. It is the Italian who digs the ditches, builds the roads and keeps the streets clean. The Italian women have the least opportunity in America. The father goos out to work, the children go to school, but the mother In fact, all the women of the family tay at home always, and seldom have the opportunity to get out of that rut.

The curtain, raised at the beginning, was not lowered until the closet The Ben Greet playerB and the Russian Symphony Society of New York City, Modest Altschuler conductor, combined to make the production significant In this centennial year of the birth of Mendelssohn. whOBe "Midsummer Night's Dream" muBic served to fclend the various scenes, as given in modern staging of the play, into a harmonious and fascinating unit.

Then, too, the dancing of a ballet of children, in the continuous woodland scene helped amazingly with the music to perpetuate a midsummer night atmosphere. A tapestry in low green tone, with faint representations of trees theron. extended from the stage up to the "flies" and embraced the three entrances and exits were apparently through folds in this drapery. The only change of scene attempted was the drawing apart of the tapestry at the rear of the stage when the duke and his court hears the Athenians play "Pyramus and Thisbe." The parting of the curtain Bhowed the front of a palace. And the duke and the court sit on the stage couches, that had served for the distracted lovers, Lyssnder, Hermla.

and the others, in the woods, but the couches were draped with ornamental stuffs, lights being lowered for the purpose. The one act from 8:30 clock to made for weariness of the flesh in the audience, but there was no cause or reason for complaint on that account. The Ben Greet players for the greater part entered with zest into the spirit of the play, and some of them read their lines beautifully, notably Percy C. Waram as the duke, Milton Rosmer as Osborn, and Irne Rooke as Helena. Ben Greet, as Bottom, played with unctuous humor and w-M feigned gravity, reading his lines capItaVy.

Rarely has there been so good a Puck as George Vivian. Almost all of the players pronounced their Shakspeare with keen intelligence, but some of them failed to get far enough over the footlights for those aloft to hear distinctly. The varying stage pictures, with the softly colored costuming of the main characters or the brilliant Ceron, Tltanla, fairies and satellites, were pleasing in the extreme. Doubtless the festival atmosphere of the production was chiefly contributed by the symphony orchestra, which brought together the play, as a whole, by eight century, is set forth In tne louowing Congregation of German Evangelical of Far Bockaway Now Numbers 51.
