This was art ititicism. Not a word was aaid about ; he artist's attempt at ..portraying ,tbe h of tbe plains. The thin, not at monphere of the picture evoked no com menu Not even the expression on the faces of the mounted men called forth the usual-"! wonder If the Indians kill ed him, or If It was the soldiers, or If l.e lost his way and starved to death," The picture by Horatio Walker is un f,.3!,tnateiy the subject, of nueh Con nors." In the foreground are two tmirs of oxen 'drawing a plow through what seems to be exceedingly "stub born glebe," The real artist in the gal lery finds a wealth of power in the composition and a. marvelous harmony in color: but the . layman bursts in upon him with such questions as: "Why is that man holding his arm up? Is he going to strike the oxT The poor fellow rvema to be pulling as hard as tie can already. Or- "Are they going home now? Is it sunset ;orf sunrise? Why didn't, he Plow straight ahead instead of leaving out that triangular patch?" The artist probably knows that the lines of the composition required that the driver's arm be raised, and that it was a Question of lino and tnaas that led Mr.. Walker to plow his painted field In two sections instead of one: but It would do no good to tell the inquisitor this. ...

Another, a trifle more intelli gent, that goes to show what a danger ous thing a little learning la, was heard he other day. "Weil, that Is Whistler that they make such a fusa about. For my' part I don't fancy a portrait cut out of calico and pasted on a back ground of London fog." The most amusing remarks of the artistic "goats" are made in the sec tion devoted to the splendid loan col lection. . "Which one is the Rembrandt?" is the first question.; "I wouldn't go home and admit that I hadn't seen the Rembrandt tor anything." One lady carried her question a step farther: "Now I wish you would tell me who painted the Rembrandt. I al ways like to know the lumen of the artists, 'lust like I think It sounds so much better to always be able to give the name of the author when you apeak of s new book. "This Is an original Rembrandt," waa the guard's mystified reply. ."To. be sure," the lady returned "but 1 want to know whose work It Is. And 1 wish,- -while yott are about it. you would teirme Just what a Rembrandt is, anyway. I thought it waa that man with the long nose and the feather in his hat; , but our photographer at home advertised Rembrandt photographs, and I don't know what he means. You nee I belong to the Women's Club and I havCto give;; report on the Art Gal lery, and the president told me to be sure to tell about the Rembrandt." Two'other pictures tn this same room serve to divide the sheep from te goats. ; One of . them is "A Children's Party, by Knaus. In this composition there are a score of figures, with every conceivable expression, from Joy to rape, on the faces and tn the attitudes of the' children. It contains material for a score of pictures, but in itself It is aH - Confusion. There is no central home, nothing on which the eye can rest. ; Around it the laymen gather to exclaim and admire. . The other la a group. of three peasant women, wanning clothes at the edge of a stream. It is from the brush of the treat Millet, and It elicits scarcely a comment from the masses of visitors. Yet the artist sees in it a matchless harmony, a unity of thought and pur pose,! which must be the foundation of very real. Work of art. The central theme' is a stolid, tired, hopeless peas ant whose borison is bounded by her dreary life, and the artist has carried this feeling of stolidity, of dull mo notony and hopelessness into his treat ment of -the .background, the soil, the very garments that hang on the rack. This Is art. the highest consummation of art, and when the World's Fair is ended . the American people will have approached many steps nearer to a real appreciation Of it. EMILY GRANT HUTCHINGS.

New York. Sept. It Perhaps the most surprising fact regarding the r'Dj upon thousands of visitors every year? between New York and Boston Is that .i. iin. hiHn WmHtV ind so many people are taking It, these in spiriting autumn days. The Journey via tlie line of people's automobiles la becoming popular and much frequented. One starts over the route of 2M miles feeling very much like the traveler who was the first that ever burst Into an cnkmiwa sea only to discover on the fim day out that apparently all the world's a trolley. True the line between the cities is not even yet an unbroken one-os seemingly it should be between the two largest centres of population on the Western continent. There is still a little gap of six and one-half miles In Connecticut to ihe north of New Haven where one must take the train, hire a carriage or go It afoot. Yet despite this little interruption in the glorious trip, the trolley-tripper Is everywhere. Each car going in either direction seems to have at least a through passenger or two; young men from inland cities speeding to the metropolis as a part of their vacation; New Yorkers working their way to Boston and the New Eng land coast by a route that gives them an unexcelled opportunity really to see a bit of the country going along: spec tacled women from Boston traveling In twos and threes, guide-books In hand, studying local geography with loving conscientiousness as they fare forward. For the most part the pace is leis urely enough. The trolley-trippers go from one town to another and stop off to see the sights. Occasionally, how ever, one encounters the rapid rider, he who starts at daybreak and pushes forward steadily until the last car has been pulled Into the car-barn. Such a one, for example, was a lad from a New Hampshire city, who had left home on Sunday noon, run along the Massachus etts shore towards Boston and at 7 o'clock on Monday evening was 'en countered In Stamford,.. Conn., full of enthusiasm and determination to get into Gotham the same night. Beyond question the best way to take this Journey is from New York east ward, and one can hardly see how the Western or Southern visitor In the me tropolis can jnore profitably extend his Eastern trip than by . making the progression by trolley along Long Isl and Sound to New Haven,' thence up to Hartford past the rich tobacco lands of the Connecticut to Springfield and so on through the hilly region of central Massachusetts to Worcester and Bos ton. It Is the Ideal way to see south ern New England. Little Incidents along the route Inevitably leave their Impress of remembrance; the news boys of New Haven, more persistent than the railway station flys in other cities; the wild-eyed trippers looking out for Cheshire cats in the elm-shaded village of Cheshire where the break In the line occurs; the picturesque barefooted Ital ian woman in the square, at New Brit ain, wheeling her bambino in a thor oughly up-to-date baby carriage, bought no doubt on the instalment plan; the amusing names' of places such as the Avon Park on Stratford, and the Waverly House, kept by Walter Scott; the hot buttered popcorn bought of a cripple at Enfleli.iirrd munched all the way through the beautiful stretch of green street in Longmeadow: the drawling conversation of "Uncle Hiram," an old man encountered in Palmer, who admitted-he- for the life of him could not see why folks want to travel such distances by trolley when there were the steam cars to take them in five hours. Even the. slightest ac cident assumes Interest when from the vantage of the front seat of the rapidly moving car one feels constantly the swish of the autumn air and wonders regarding every hotel in the town ahead whether it holds out the promise of a square meal. Then there Is everywhere the local history, a bore to read up In as dry-as-dust compilations but a Joy when ap prehended on the spot. From the Bronx onward to Boston the tourist has hard work to gather in the wealth of history that lies on every side. Along the un dent post Toad which connected New York and Boston in colonial and Revo lutionary days are the .almost number less relics of George Washington's cele brated New England tour made in 1789 a trip that has made more houses famous than any other little Journey ever taken by an American. In fact, you may make up your mind while traveling through Connecticut, that every other old house you encounter sheltered the first President, who. truth to tell, must have preserved the English habit of eating five meals a day and must have been afflicted with something like the sleeping sickness of Uganda. And the best of it Is that from the point of view of patriotic Ameri cans all these Washington cases are authentic, as, tor example, the ancient Havlland Inn at Rye, opened In 1731 under the landlordshlp of Peter Brown and given a good advertisement by the Father of his country who wrote In his diary under the date of October 15, 1789, that "Mrs. Havlland keeps a very neat and decent inn." The property has late ly been acquired by a number of resi dents of Rye who will no doubt make of it a local historical museum for the preservation of relics. And so along the whole route. There are gray structures at Norwalk, spared by the British who burned the town in the Revolution; the celebrated house with the sixty closets at Fairfield;' Trumbull's grandiose paintings of Revolutionary battles in the Yalt Col lege Art Museum; the numerous his toric relics in the city of Hartford; the famous Oliver Ellsworth mansion in Windsor. This lost, which is on a newly opened trolley route connecting Hartford and Springfield on the west side of the river, has been filled by the ,-n" ,.,' , , uaugnters ol the Revolution with a (Translation from - xtemiraius tare TOUTOtton of om antiaulttes. fiords written in uerman, as . tnej of coura.. wiuihinztnn ntnnnt av( v aaoausaaswi owjrou eat. IIJ14P I mansion that is familiar history but I a little further on is the Day bouse, a historic, bouse that is memorable, al though It Is one of the few at which the President- did not stop, perhaps because it la well established that he crossed the river at Windsor and went up through Jjopgmeadow. Thence from Springfield, "where the United States arsenal calls up, espe cially to th Bostoi woman fresh from preparations f- for "tilvv international peace convention soon toV meet in the New England metropolis, memories of Longfellow's inspired poem, he route lies onward over what wlthi, little Imagination may be regarded! s the oia way ttn oy wnicn the nl w tiers came from the granite and fcilJIe JlHonT.ffL PXL EL!Iu.Dlion? ' hills of Shawmut d to the ricft term,na.tlon.to the hl"Ji f valley of - the Connecticut. HItnrvN continues to be,, at least from'' the guide-book point of view, the leading industry of most of the towns passed through on the way to Worcester. Even where Revolutionary history .la The air line between Worcester and Boston, however. is distinguished rather by its progresslvenesa than its antiquity. With Its straight double track, laid for the most pnrt over pri vate rlsht of way and with its well equipped Inferurbaei cars making the distance or rorty nines in a tew minutes over two hours, It forms a fitting climax to the long trolley trip and prepares the tourist to discover m the system of the Boston Elevated Company the best existing scheme of rapid transit that has as yet been de vised for for an American city. As for the ancient history. If there Is a little less of it through the parts -of Westboro, Southboro and Framingham that the line traverses, than might have been expected In a Bostonlsed neighborhood, at least there Is the Ward Place in Shrewsbury where Washington stopped on his way to the siege of Boston, and in the Baptist church of Westboro Is one of the cele brated bells from the foundry of Paul Revere. Meantime the easy-riding trolley all too soon brings up on the edge of Brookllne and thence proceeds at a more leisurely gait through the richest town In the United States Into the heart of Boston. There, of course, history lies spread out in every pos sible direction, all of It reached by the net-work of trolleys that have been ex tended thickly all over eustern Massa chusetts. Apart from the historical associations the trolley route from New York to Boston deserves to become better known for the beauty of the landscape. The steam railroads often run through the least attractive parts of the coun try and particularly in the approaches to large towns., Over and .over again one hears along the trolley route, "I have often seen this place from the railroad and thought how ugly It was. I never before realized that It has so attractive a residence section." And between towns the trolley gives the best possible Idea of the charm of New England scenery, now gliding close to the' September gray waters of Long Island Sound; now if olio wing the course of the glistening Connecticut; again encircling ,the sides of precipi tous mountains in the Ware valley past the sandy-shored lake of Wick aboag, and finally coming into the valley of the Charles, picturesque with canoes and other pleasure craft. The varied beauty of the landscape and the exhliiratlon of the fresh air, together with the freedom from the dust and dirt of railway travel, muke It certain that when the last gap between the two cities huB been filled in and the Improvements now projected by the New Huven road in the neighborhood of New York have been completed a very great volume of passenger traffic, especially in the warm months of the year, will flow Boston ward by trolley. FADS IX TEXT BOOKS. A Kick From a Teacher English Grammar Hednced to a -"Mystified Muddle" and Even the Multiplica tion Table Mot Safe. To the Editor of The Observer: About everything now in the way of science and literature, has been mod ernized, from the Bible to Shakespeare, Dickens, and down to Blum's Almanac. The multiplication table stands alone untroubled. But that ancient structure Is doomed to tumble off before mnny moons wune, or many Yules come. The great reviewers have passed away, and their successors have combined with the craft, and anything that will yield money is sound literature to-day. No Stoddard to condemn. No Thack eray to scorn. This combination is to control the text-books, eliminate what It wishes, and supply what It has. The tendency nW Is to take English grammar from the course of study. I admit, or believe, that if a child never hears an Incorrect expression It will seldom or never utter one; that It will speak the language as it Is spoken to it. But how many parents in the common homes, or even In the cultured .ones, speak the language cor rectly? Or how could the children be so corraled as to exclude all Incorrect language? And, having learned the language from sound, or phonetically, could anyone write and teach it cor rectly? I imagine that he would pro gress Just about as well as a monkey would in teaching a chipmunk how to compute simple interest. The English language Is no toy pony, but a real horse. And to ride him correctly, one must be a man having studied his anatomy his tricks. As I have Intimated, the modern tendency is to eliminate the English grammar; and so far as the public schools In the State are concerned, the elimination is about complete. Such authors as Roswell Smith, Dr. Bulllan, Bingham, and other distinguished writers of Latin and English gram mars, whose works have ever been noted for their simplicity and power, have been slaughtered and pushed Into the background by the book-making craft and Its tricks; and the business of book publishing entered upon Its present acute stage of humbuggery. The grammar adopted for the public schools in this State might do for higher schools; but there Is nothing primary about It, and it was never in tended for such schools. If so, the au thor has missed his mark, as far as If he had shot in the opposite direction. Some teachers say it Is "a mystified muddle." It seems that the author be gan his work in the middle of his book and, spreading either way, gets the first in the place of the last, and the last in the first of the first Like the firefly, shedding no light from his fountain, he soars aloft Into tbe realms of the analytical world, to reside in the higher altitudes of the learned, leaving the student to guess whether he has been learning the game of roll-a-hole or umpiring a scientific game of baseball. Log-rolling and mendacious puffery of useless books, have become a power for evil In the land, nay anything from the cranky side of science may be ex pected to be in demand, or thrust upon us. We may expect, soon, to see some modern crank Jump upon the multipli cation table with both of his big feet, and smash that ancient formulated structure into modernity; proceed to London at once, throw stones at the clock tower of the House of Commons, and, after stirring the public mind to a proper expectancy, climb1 Nelson's monument and proclaim to that vil. lage and the world, in ; no uncertain terms, that the multiplication table Is wrong! And forthwith he will descend and proceed to the formulation of a modern one. And North Carolina will send In her order at once by wire.

'The greater part of it," said Mariana, "la In my top bureau drawer. It is no longer the thing to wear a pompadour. And you know I always follow the fashions,:'- even if I never catch up - with them." It was a. rainy day a stormy day, and Mariana sat watching the wind shaken trees and looking so quiet and demure, with her chin In her hands, and a dreitmy light in her eyes when Mariana has that light in her eyes I feel sure she has been la mischief. Sud denly her face dimpled. .Then her whole countenance broke into laughter. .She laughed till the prosse portrait pictures rattled on the walls. When Mariana laughs that way I know I have only to wait and I shall hear the wrfole story. "Well?" I s.ild. at Inst. "Well," said Mariana, sitting up, and looking at herself In the glass Mariana Is a rum creature? "Well, I'm in a peck of trouble a whole ton of trou ble." I waited, and then Mariana be gan, and when Mariana begins one lias only to sit and listen. "You see. It was this way," she said, "you know Blank Blank?" "I have heard you speak him before," I said, dryly. "Yes, I wouldn't wonder. Well, you know I never did think him the only man. But he certainly is convenient to huve around, and usually I can stand, hi. If I'm In a good humor and you know my amlabilty Is my strong point. But lately he hus been troublesome and 1 have gotten tired. I think he had been more boring than usual and the night was perfect and the garden glori ous In the moonlight, and I kept wish ing him in China and somebody else in his place. It was 11 o'clock when he got up to go, and then not until after two broad hints." Mariana puffed, and her face began to crmson. -I'm not very proud of this episode," she said, "I don't believe I care to tell." "Go on," I said sternly. "Well, you know he is not very tall, and the piazza-step, you know how light they are and if he hadn't stood so near the edge It never could have hap pened." "Lucid!" quoth I. , "He had said good-night two times, already, and you know what a sharp stone this Is In this ring and to have a sharp stone pressed into one's finger Isn't pleasant." "Mariana," I said sitting up, and looking shocked, "what do you mean?" "I mean that it is, under certain cir cumstances, unpleasant to have one's fingers crushed. Of course, there ore times but this is digressive." "The short of it is that I slapped his face. He v.as standing at the top-edge of the steps, and he was so astonished In; lost his balance and rolled down those 13 steps and hit the pavement like a rubber ball." "Mariana paused and looked at me, appeallngly. "Wasn't It dreadful? Was It dreadful-."' she said in a breath. I ignored the question, for I was speechless. The dignified Blank Blank rolled down 13 steps. "Like Iser rolling rapidly" was before my mental retina. "Mariana," I said, at last, "what did you do?" "Do? I fled. I heard something that began and ended with the third letter of the alphabet, but by that time I had shut the hull door and was shivering und shaking. I thought suppose to morrow finds him a corpse and the cor oner has to come and sit on him. I wondered what they would do with him, and what they would do with me. And about that time I heard another fo.ia word, or the same one, and I peep ed out and he was slowly limping down the walk, looking so desolate in the soft moonlight" Mariana was silent for a little while, and then she sighed. I don't care so much if he Just won't, tell. But my fear is that his sense of humor is greater than his sense of pride he does love a good Joke. He was down town this morning for 1 met him and his treat ment was so cold It gave me the tooth ache." "When did this happen?" I asked. "A week ago. And I'm beginning to miss his Huylers and my American Beauties are fading. Oh, 'dear! Why have I such a temper?" And Mariana sighed again.
