A first view of the exhibition at the Hotel Fontenelle of pictures from the Vose galleries of Boston, brought hy the Society of Fine Arts, is like the swinging of a pen ' dulum. There is "The . Lone Cy press" of Monterey Cal., by Elliott Daingerfield, brilliant in color, for the artist is probably our most bril liant colorist, all reality; and then the imaginary "Rosalind and Cecil ia" of Albert P.. Ryder, who is al ways an intimate friend and who thouchf nf rnmnrtsitimi. ieeVmtr Hand passion and of color only as a har monious accompaniment. There is "Late Afternoon," an ultra-charac-'teristic Fritz Thaulow with the swirling water he always does, plus lovely feeling and harmony which he has not always attained, seem ing to express turbulence of nature and. of soul beneath a calm exterior. Then there are "Le Soleil Couch ant," and "Etang," by Jules Dupre, all calm and serene and homey. We find Sir Douglas Wilkie's portrait of King William IV, reeking with the atmosphere of courts and pageants, intrigue and passing plea sure and magnificence, --and then "Sun and Shadow," by F. W. Ben son, showing quiet home life, a pic ture, of the artist's two daughters, and 'again "Boy-JVith Pigs," by George Morland, with - its simple barnyard life. A most interesting contrast are W. D. "Hamilton's por traits of little R. C. Vose, jr., late in subject, fashion and treat ment, and the little fellow's ances tors, "Daniel Rea." by Joseph Badger and "Mrs. Daniel Rea and Daughter.'by J. Singleton Copley, both painted more than 100 years ago. As 'the pendulum swings back to renter we realize by what widely divergent methods, real artcan be attained. Many of the ge'ms of the collection have not been mentioned as further study of them is neces sary for their discussion. ' Divorce Courts ' Evelena P. Riles filed 'in district court a cr6ss-petition to the divorce petition of her husband, Roger E. Riles. She charges that he associ ates with other women and compels her to economize so that he can get money to spend on the other women. ' Zella Diltz was awarded a divorce from Bradley Diltz on the ground of nonsupport and restored to her maiden name, Hickerson, by Judge Wakeley in divor.ee court. William Fifield, on allegations of extreme cruelty, was granted a di vorce from Marie Fifield by Judge Wakeley in divorce court. Millie Donnell, charging"her hus band, Charles, with extreme cruelty, was granted a divorce by-Judge Es telle in divorce court and restored to her maiden name, Branson.
