CARDINAL GIBBONS COMING TO BROOKLYN Will Preside at the Commencement Exercises of St. John's College. BROOKLYN COLLEGEA YEAROLD To Celebrate the Anniversary Tomorrow--Catholic Church News. For the second time, his eminence, James, Cardinal Gibbons, will be the Vincentian Fathers of St. John's College, on the occasion of an important event in the college history.

The cardinal has consented to attend the annual commencement of St. John's, to be held in the Academy of Music on the evening of Wednesday, June, 23, and to the exercises. Important announcement has just been made by the very Rev. John W. Moore, C.M., the president the college, and will add greatly to the impressiveness of the commencement ceremonies.

It is not yet known just when the cardinal will arrive in Brooklyn, nor how long his visit will be. He was here last fall for a few days, but did not attend any public ceremonies of any kind. The students and friends of St. John's College feel greatly pleased over the honor accorded to them by Cardinal Gibbons, and they will make the welcome to the cardinal a memorable one. The selection of the Academy of Music for the commencement was made necessary because of the great demand for seats, which is so far unprecedented, although yet none have been issued.

There "are twelve students in the senior class to receive the degree of bachelor of arts. The address to the graduates will be delivered by Professor C. Monaghan, LL.D., of the faculty of St. John's College. The students' orations will be as follows: "Education Without God," Thomas Holland; "Government Without God," Bernard J.

Reilly; "Society Without God," Francis Garcia. There will be about eighteen medals to be distributed for prizes won during the year. Four of these will be given to students in the college, four to students in the high school and the rest to students in the other departments, including the school of pedagogy and the conservatory of music. The members of these departments will all present at the commencement exercises. At present, the examinations for the end of the year are the chief concern of the students at St.

John's. The examinations will commence on June 14. The baccalaureate sermon will be delivered to the students by the Rgt. Rev. Mgr.

E. W. McCarty of St. Augustine's Church, in the Church of St. John the Baptist, on Sunday, June 20.

The Immaculate Conception Day Nurshave its annual picnic at Prospect on Saturday, June 12. The Arst anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of Brooklyn College, on Crown Heights, at Nostrand avenue and Carroll streets, will be held to-morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock on the college grounds. There will be an elaborate programme in celebration of the first year's success of the college, which has progressed so rapidly that it is already recognized as one of the leading educational institutions of the state. The laying of the cornerstone took place on May 24 last year, and since that time the college made a prominent place for itself in the activities of Brooklyn. Under the active direction of the Rev.

J. F. X. O'Conor, S.J., the president, the pace set by him when he began the erection of the magnificent buildings which were completed in record time, was kept up, and every few days some noteworthy event happened either at the college or under its auspices. The college opened in September with 226 students on its enrollment lists, and at the beginning of the second term this number had increased to 305.

This has been increased during the second term to more than 320, with every prospect of a waiting list for next fall. It will be seen that Brooklyn was quick to respond to the opening of a Jesuit institution of learning in this borough. The programme to to-morrow afternoon will open with an address by the Rt. Rev. Mgr, P.

J. McNamara, S.T.L.V.G., and will be followed by addresses by Supreme Court Justice Luke D. Stapleton, John J. Delany and the Rev. Lewis Drummond, S.J., director of studies at St.

Boniface College, Manitoba, and assistant editor of the new Jesuit weekly, "America." An elaborate musical programme will be rendered. To-morrow morning at 10:45 the Rev. Michael J. Tobin will celebrate his first solemn mass at St. Gabriel's Church, New Lots road and Linwood street.

The walls were also decorated with rakes, horse collars and harness which added to the effect. Then there was pink lemonade, cider, crullers and bolivars, not forgetting peanuts.

During June and July the lower hall of the Lenox Library Building will be given over to an exhibition of engravings after paintings by Raphael These prints form part of the collection formed by the late Dr. Wilhelm Engelmann, many being signed proofs, and practically all the modern ones proofs before letters. These line engravings range from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century, from the work of the master F.

G. to that of C. F. Muller, the ill-fated author of the famous plate after the Sistine Madonna. Of the older engravers, Marc Antonio Raimondi, Gottzius and Hollar are well represented.

Raimondi's "Massacre of the Innocents" is here in both versions, with and without the "chicot" (pine tree). The authorities are about equally divided on the question as to which of these two is the original but one may admire without worrying about the matter of authorship. The classic dignity of this plate may be compared with the treatment of the same subject by Ugo da Carpi, who worked in the interesting process known as chiaroscuro, printing in tints from woodblocks, in imitation of wash drawings. Some plates by eighteenth century Frenchmen are shown and a mezzotint by Wallerant Vaillant, one of the earlier engravers in the "black manner." The Italians of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries are well represented, Morghen, Longhi, Toschi, Gandolfi and others who mark the height of modern achievement in the production of large plates after famous paintings. 4 similar virtuosity in craftsmanship is shown by the Germans, such as J.

F. Muller. Mandel or Joseph Keller, the Frenchman, Boucher-Desnoyers, and the English Strongs. In these modern plates, marking the culmination of technical ability, one may study both the strength and the weakness of this art of line engraving on copper. The regularity and coldness which were the inevitable result of the remarkable development of technique, but also the richness and dignity and rendering of textures of which the measured sweep of the graver was capable.

And the illustration of this art in one of its important aspects--the reproduction of the works of the great masters in painting at a time when there were no other methods of reproducing them--is the chief value, of the present of the Lenox Library Building, the exhibIn the main galleries on 2 the upper floor interesting and unusual exhibit. it of "Animals in Black and White" remains on view. This show, like not a few earlier ones at the Lenox, is SO much a matter of compressed selection that its greatest interest and value, perhaps, lies in the fact that it is a guide, an indication of numerous individual artistic personalities that may be studied more fully and with more leisure in the library's print room. INSTITUTE NOTES. The Brooklyn Institute season will close next week.
