A friend, writing from the Catskills, gives the following Interesting account of a moat unique settlement which has been established In the mountains largely for the pleasure and comfort of artists and for people of culture nnd of artistic tastes. It was founded by Mr. Ralph Radclyffe Whitehead, an Englishman of large wealth and of generous Impulses. Describing the settlement, Mrs. F— writes: "It Is seldom In this life given to us to see a man realise, even In part, his Ideals: but that Is what Is granted to us here. Mr. Ralph Radclyffe White- head Is a very rich Englishman, and wdshlng to live with his family In sim ple, yet Ideal conditions, after traveling nil over the world, living abroad for fifteen years, he settled in this moat beautiful part of God's country, and proceeded to bring about hla Ideal en vironment. He bought up many, many acres; made roads; put In waterworks; built himself a most exquisite home, and then went to work to make homes for others, that he and his might not lack companionship with their kind. He also established all manner of ar tistic Industries; built cottages, inns, settlements, and then said to the world: 'Come and live here as long ns you like (If you will work at something), at most reasonable rates.' Slowly the world has responded. In the tlrst place, Mr. Whitehead Is absolute. No one can coma to any of these Inna or cottages nnd no student con pursue his chosen l art save at his good will and pleasure. ; Every single thing here is his personal property, and run at his expense. So (this Is but Just. He told me the ren- , son he made this an Immutable law was that he did not care for the place to become an ordinary summer resort, but wanted to keep It for those who would properly appreciate It. "Now, upon a beautiful mountain Is an Immense central building called The Studio.' In this Is a perfect II brary, absolutely free to all; a great hall for exhibitions of all arts, for danc ing and all conditions of a splendid place for the enjoyment of life. Only native 'woods are used In the build ings; everything Is of the simplest; there Is no display, but, oh. tt Is nil so beautiful! "In the lovely woods surrounding the buildings are appliances for the pur suit of art One can study everything here. There Is a furniture shop, where the most beautiful furniture Is made and sold; a metal shop, where workers In metal ply their art all day under the guidance of art teachers. There are all sorts and kinds of studies for painting, more than X ever knew existed. Pho tography, as such. Is so fine 1 did not recognize It; bookbinding, yea every thing Is taught here. Each building "is a gem, set In the midst of such exqui site scenery as makes a lump In the throat, and tears In the eyes, to think God has made the world so beautiful. Then amidst the various studios Is a handsome building called ’The Vlletta,' where all students lodge. Coming on down there Is an old farm, converted Into a nest of beautiful buildings, where ordinary folks live. Or, for a little sum, you dan rent one of the gem-llke houses and live all to yourself all summer long. Only 'the king' must say you may come. There la a central hall, where all repair to eat and bathe, this are rooms large and small, each comfortably furnished with everything, even soap. Then there are outlying cottages of one, two or four rooms each. Luclne and I have taken one of these of two rooms, and I have hung up my pictures and made a little home, wherein I am as snug as ran be, and— oh! I hate to think of leaving It, for New York and Its noisy ways! Twice a week up In the great studio there are dances for old and young; twice a week entertainments are gotten up by various folk, nnd of all kinds. Sunday evening I entertained them with clasalb music, Beethoven, and shall give Cho pin next week. I walk miles and never feel a bit tired. This place Is so unique In this, that only cultured people care to come here, and we have a most de lightful company. There Is but little driving, still one can, for If, get carriage for half a day and drive those distances not to be walked. "One of the most beautiful places hero Is Mount Overlook, the highest peak of the Catskills. We got a car riage and drove up last week. An Im mense hotel crowns It, a building of 400 rooms. There you find 'The Cliffs,' a sheer rocky steep of 6,000 feet, where you look down Into the abyss. I went Icy cold, and felt very faint for a while, but overcame It, and was called very plucky for seeing the younger folk through the trip. Mr. Whitehead Is a very remarkable man—simple, kind, most cultured, speaking a dozen lan guages—and Ills wife Is very Intel lectual. They have two children, little boys, who have a governess for every separate study. It seems to me. "We have been entertained several times by them, nnd while they call It 'the simple life,’ I'd hate to have to foot tho bills. Their servants are all for eigners, nnd It Is certainly delightful to be so served. .Two maids watt at table, Swedish girls, tall, handsome, clad in severe black, with white Swiss raps nnd long tucked cuffs and dainty Swiss aprons. "There arc many of the world’s fa mous ones here, among them Florence Wllkerson, poetess; Charlotte Stetson Oilman nnd her latest husband. Mrs. Oilman is a severely handsome wom an; Mr. Oilman, a humorist, who keeps us constantly laughing. He gave the 'show' last night at the studio, to which wo all walked, carrying lanterns. He gave 'Mrs. Jnrley's Wax Works,’ and I came home with sides aching with laughter. Miss Stetson lives half the alf with her father, Mr. 8tctson. The other day Mr. Oilman said to me, In speaking of Miss Stetson, 'Our daugh ter has gone to visit her fathor.' Cu rious condition, eh? I was never before In so Interesting a place. "All food Is home-grown, alive coffee, sugar and flour. I never Baw such butter, cream nnd mutton. "We will probably remain here until October, later going to New York." IN HONOR OF Ml88 HOWELL.
