ART STUDENTS IN PARIS.
Americans Studying There Forced to Find New Quarters for Their Club.

The historical building at Paris, provided for the American Art association by the generosity of Rodman Wanamaker, will be torn down to make room for a new street. Since the art students have been unable to raise sufficient funds to erect a structure of their own, the club has rented another one more centrally located. The present site is also a larger building and more suitable.

The new place boasts of a garden and a large studio, both admirably adapted to entertainments. It is now being fitted with modern American conveniences and will be opened next month. Mr. Wanamaker will continue to donate the rent yearly.
