I evening in celebration of his twenty I second birthday Music readings and charades were the amusements I Ladies Literary Club I Notwithstanding the inclement wea ther quite a large audience was in at I tendance on Friday last and all present pres-ent felt fully repaid by the three very entertaining papers presented The French artist Carot first engaged en-gaged attention He was born in Paris Pars in 1790 Though cradled and reared in luxury and affluence and at one time receiving an income of 200000 francs in later life his 1 allowance was materi alowanc ally reduced by his wa He was twice decorated first as chevalier and next as commander of the Legion of Honor His great success was in land scape painting His great aim in art was to harmonize manner or treat ment with nature His loveof nature i was unbounded and he spent much time wandering in the suburbs at I early morning or evening By the real he expressed the ideal He selected scenes with which the people were most familiar and many of his studies were of the quiet russet monotonous I bits of landscape so common in the north of France There was no bril liancy In his efforts rather sombreness I and quietness He and his friend Wii let painted together they frend many I tastes in common as shown in mny their I portrayal of village and peasant life in France Carot never married One of the last acts of his life was giving a pension to the wife of Millet His genius was not at first recognized and i his fame was of slow growth for he I had painted years before his pictures received much attention His succeeding suc-ceeding triumph finally atoned for former for-mer lack of appreciation His methods meth-ods and style will always be matters of difference and discussion Among his best pictures are Saint Sebas tan and sacred subjects like Flight Into Egypt Baptism of Christ Carots pictures rank among the very I best works of modern art He ver i Paris in 1875 r The South in Literature followed I The sunny south is a magical phrase for I brings visions to the most un I imaginative It would to be imaginatve I seem the I natural home of literature but has been the last to produce worthy literary II fruit Poe may be called a southern author but his works are not characteristic char-acteristic of the south William Gilmore more Simms J P Kennedy and Beverly Bev-erly Tucker portrayed bright pictures of southern life but have not retained a lasting hold upon popular favor Institution In-stitution and tradition were antagonistic antag-onistic to literature as a profession Slaver tended to indolence Sectionalism Section-alism fettered public opinion The south has ever been noted for eloquent speech as in the ringing words of Patrick Pat-rick Henry and the calmer utterances of Washington have been the nations pride Jefferson Madison Calhoun were masters of logic The war revolutionized revo-lutionized the south and in the midst of her shattered idols and the desolation desola-tion of her homes was born a literature litera-ture unique and beautiful The literary impulse came with the war and the universal excitement of public feeling found Utterance in stir feelng found 1terpnce str ring war songs and impassioned verse a song Maryland My Mary land which became the Marseillaise of the confederacy Prior to the war newspapers and magazines had a struggle strug-gle for existence south of Mason and Dixons line The chief feature of the new literature was dialect stories and those of Charles Egbert Chaddock Miss Mary N Murfle Harris and Cable were filled with pathos and beauty of sentiment In 1866 appeared southern women authors a Mrs Maguire Ma-guire Miss Fisher Marlon Harland and Augusta J Evans the writer of St Elmo Richard Malcolm Johnson John-son enjoys the distinction of a long public career Among other prominent prom-inent southern writers may be mentioned men-tioned Prof Hartt Miss Elliott Mrs Louisa Clarke Pymelle De Leon Allen Al-len Edwards Jas A Harrison Thos Wilson Page Lanier Robert Burnes Wilson and Mrs Burton Harrison all contributing to the new literature of I the future I The third paper read was about George Washington Cable who was born In New Orleans in 1844 entered the confederate army in 1863 and at I the close of the war returned penniless I to his native home His first literary efforts were published in the Picayune over the signature of DropShot Mr Cable had conscientious scruples about attending theatres and reading French novels His position at the head of southern writers is assured He wrote accurately of the Creole probably the true spirit could never have been pQrtrayed except by personal per-sonal observation He is the first thorough exponent of creole French He appeal at his best in the short stories to Vhich he mainly devoted his study as Old Creole Days The Grandissimes was his first novel Dr Sevier deals with New Orleans life Other books are Strange True Stories of Louisiana Condition of the NegroIn thc United States Mr Cable besides beirtg novelist was a lecturer historian musician and teacher He is now living at North ampton Mass Amelie Rives Chanler of aristocratic French ancestry was born at Richmond Rich-mond In 186o Her compositions and writings are what might be expected from a beautiful highbred society girl Unfortunately The Quick and the Dead has made her notorious The others A Brother to Dragoons Is probably the most meritorious In According to St John she takes the Apostles text Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends Among Mrs Chanlers other works are Barbara Dering Virginia of Virginia Virtue Vir-tue of Love Ogden Jlngnziiic Clnb The Magazine club met on Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs L B Adams and was gracefully entertained Tw Mrs Adams and

with a very interesting talk on the great artist Alma Tadema and a witty account of Tramp Life from the Century and given in her incomparable style Miss Remick gave a well written report re-port of the second half of the Century Mrs Corlew was v then requested to give a report of the meeting of the Utah Federation of Women clubs held I in Salt Lake city which she gave in a few well chosen remarks Mrs Warner War-ner also added her testimony and was enthusiastically applauded when she told how very creditably Mrs Corlew had acquitted herself as president of that honorable body Upon a recommendation from our advisory board read by Mrs Fletcher I was moved and unanimously carried that the Magazine club join the Federation Federa-tion of Women clubs I The uroeramme was resumed with a niano solo Beethovens Farewell to the Piano Then came interesting reviews of the Cosmopolitan by Mrs R Robinson and of Scribner by Mrs Beny The programme closed with a lovely niano solo by Miss Bigelow and an expression of thanks from the ladies to Mrs Carleton for the very satisfactory satisfac-tory manner in which she had filled the chair By way of a postscript dear to the heart of a woman the forgotten critics report was called for and ably gien A valentine offering to the Twenty Fifth street Mission amounting to 18 was given by the ladies And thus closed one of the most interesting
