room No, 3. La Pleiade faces his larder south.
It would be impossible to carry even by a girder
the first floor south wall above the dining-room on
a 9-inch wall. Quis, whose plan is compact, leaves
it doubtful how his flues are carried over to the
central staçk. Mercian's well-contrived plan (oppo-
site) is illfistrated by an elevation showing a quiet
and pleasant treatment of brickwork. In Fairy's
plan the kitchen portion is well shut off, but his
dining-room is only 10 ft. by 11 ft. Niv-qel-rah
(page 296) shows his scullery leading from the
kitchen by a wide opening, which is always a
good feature to adopt. His elevation is quiet and
pleasant, but the chimney-breast in the large bed-
rooms on the first floor is apparently not carried
on anything. Solus also sends only one elevation,
but that vigorously drawn. The hall is not very
light, and the kitchen, from the chimney-breast to
the opposite wall, would leave a width of 8 ft.
Shem - el- Nessim's design
shows good planning and
a simple and inexpensive
elevation.
The awards appear in
the usual place.

last month a mistake was
made in the titles of two
of Mr. P. Morley-Horder’s
houses. The house on

The latter was built for

ONDON. — Last
month we referred
briefly to the chief
provisions of the
International Copyright Con-
vention recently concluded
in Berlin, in so far as they
affect artists. Pending pub-
lication of the full text of the
Convention, further comment
must be deferred, but in the
meantime all who are con-
cerned in this question will be interested to learn
that the Artistic Copyright Society, whose represen-
tatives took care to bring the views of the Society to
the notice of the British delegates as soon as the
Congress began its deliberations, has prepared a
draft Bill having for its object the consolidation and
amendment of the law relating to artistic copyright
in this country in accordance with those views. By
the courtesy of Mr. Croal Thomson, the Honorary
Secretary of the Society, we have been permitted
to see a copy of this draft Bill, to which a
printed memorandum is prefixed, setting forth in
brief the existing state of the law and the main
principles which, in the opinion of the Society,
ought to underlie any new legislation. These
are (1) “That every work of art (whether in
the graphic, plastic, or applied arts) should,
by virtue of its creation alone, and without
imposing any legal or other formality, be the
