Two miniatures among collection on view at the Portland Art Museum. The one on the left is by Miss
Edith Sawyer; the one on the right is by Miss Katherine H. Scott.
THE exhibition of miniatures now'
to be Been at the Art Museum
contains 10 by Edith Sawyer, of
'New York, one by Alice Marsh,
of BfodMyn, one by Laura Hills,
of Boston, add three by Katherine H.
Bcott, of Burlington, Iowa. Miss Saw

Children and white-haired age, as well
as young- girls and more mature
women. Her No. 6, "Alice," Is a charmingly-serious
portrait of a young girl,
with "a mass of brown hair, against a
rich brocade of greenish and bluelsh
shades, solid and restrained In Its

tation of a nentle and refined char
acter. "Curly Locks" is a delicate
patntintf of a blond child. "Anne" by
Alice Marsh has much strength of
characterization and is an undoubted
portrait of a very indlvfdual child.
"The Tea Rose" by Laura Hills,
which has been on exhibition at the
Museum for some time past, has .dis

both in the figure and In the beautiful

are carefully painted, with consider

Dabo's Storm Clouds."
Among the. paintings which I. N.
Fleiscliner has lent to the Art Museum
for more than a year past is Leon
Dabo's "Storm Clouds." Dabo, Is an
American artist, born some 46 years
ago In Detroit, Michigan. His formal
training was French, but as any one
can see, f roin the "Storm Clouds, bis
work Is strongly Influenced by Whist
ler. Not that his own individuality is
not plainly shown, but evidently nia
temperament, as that or wnisuer,
finds a natural expression In tone and
refined contrast. Although this paint
ing Is now hung rather high it attracts
the attention of many Museum vis
itors, who enjoy the beautiful rnood of
nature which It portrays, 'ine Dig,
dark cloud with a silvery edge of
light, against the grayer distant heav
ens; the sweep of beach and the sea
with a pale wave upon which a shaft
of gray light falls; the figures, distant
sails and .flying gulls, form a simple
yet impressive painting which takes
one into the free-breathing spaces or
nature. It is painted, In a gray key,
with a fluid and thin medium. Other
paintings by the same artist are owned
by different Portland collectors.
Artists Aro Entertained.
Miss Althea Chase and Miss Jeannte
M. Stewart prepared a delightful eve

of Oregon Artists and their friends.
during the past week, at Miss Chase's
home, 1418 Alameda Drive.
After the guests had assembled they
were ushered up to Miss Chase's attic
studio, when they were requested to
make charcoal drawings. The repro
ductions of Valesques paintings were
thrown upon a canvas. Miss Chase ex
plaining the particular Interest of
each, after which the wonderful draw
ings just finished were,, placed upon
the screen, amid much merriment.
The guests then descended the stairs
and each received a stick of Chinese
Incense and were led by Miss Stewart
around a square or two, waiving their
lighted sticks, ending the stroll la a

"French art Is swinging back to Its
native tradition of grace and order.
There is less straining after novelty,

very much like lawn tennis, such as
might well relieve our collegians'
tedium as they follow his wanderings

modern figures, with their perennial
human curves shaping clothes diap

figures dancing round a Greek vase?
"In a glass case are the separate

companions said: "He spoke never

people all over the ! country are now
receiving the final volume of the an
nual report of the United States com
missioner of education for the current
year.
In the public schools of the United
States there were during the year 608,
040 teachers employed. Of this num
ber 108,200, or 21.4 per cent were men.
The percentage of men has steadily
decreased during the period for which
statistics are available. In 1870 there
were 88.7 per cent men; In 1890, S4.S
per cent were men:; In 1900, 293 per
cent were men, as against 21.4 per cent
of men for the year 19 13-' 14.
that bespeaks many pleasant things.
In the vernacular of the day,, "you
should worry;" yet presently there are
some disturbances, some Illness, some
trouble with friends or relatives and
4orae financial annoyances, which are
minor in their effect. Possibly two
marriages.

not the best of conditions. There Is
Illness of relatives, etc, evident and

caution in changes and money affairs.
While you have a horoscope that in
sures success ultimately, you are now
passing through one of the worst tran
sits you have ever had. The year 1916
Is very promising.
B. M. R. Tou have a very conscl
ntlous nature. Too generous and at
times too spirited. The only arbitrary
aspects appear as some disturbances
of the health at periods, but mainly
domestic troubles In the future. Guard
the affections well and the best pros
pects appear. A marriage Is very prob
able by the first of the 20's. An affair
even now to an older gentleman.
J. G. C. Tou have had a bad plan

While evidencing many delays or op
positions, the outcome Is secure. The
greatest concern seems the health of
relatives. The other chart evidences
this more than yours. Hers is not

that laws can be put on our national
statute books which will compel labor
and capital to go after prosperity, re
gardless of whether they go hand in

going, I say emphatically can be done.
"In other words, I am firmly of the
opinion that it would have been Pos
sible for the Democratic administra
tion to hav passed one or two simple
and direct laws which would hav by

Since the advent of the Democratic ad

th capitalist class, the multl-milllon-
aires, financiers and trust-deflers, have
thrown up their hands and are more
than willing to meet the new admin
istration and labor men more than
halfway. They have been frequently
told that the dollar barons are willing;
to forsake their old paths If allowed
to retain what they have accumulated,

( The If aw Karen Seal.
."Eight , years ago I printed and
paid for a half-page advertisement ad
dressed to the New Haven stockholders
and to the New England investors. In
which 1 said that the New Haveri road
was bing ruthlessly robbed, and that

and owned by the widows and orphans
and other small Investors of New Eng
land, would be practically worthless
In a few - years. - If you will look up
mat advertisement, printed In 1908, you
will see, I gavo the whys and where-
' fores in my prediction. Though
- published this prediction widely, at
heavy expense to myself. I was not
only laughed at by the New England
'Investors, but I was bitterly criticised
by. the press of New Tork for at
tempting to disturb that Gibraltar of
railroad Investments th New Haven
road.1 Today New England Investors
have had it proved la th courts. In
Congress and in governmental commis
sions that all I had said was true, but
that I did not tell the story nearly as
bad as it really was. New England in
vestors have lost $300,000,000 by the
New Haven's pillaging methods, and
8700,000,000 more by similar railroad
robberies. It is well known who the
robbers are; It has been proved be
yond a doubt that they still have the
loot, yet not a single one has been
put on trial for his highwaymanry, and
not a single dollar of the hundreds of
millions of the meanly pilfered sav
ings of poor Investors has been re
turned to the company's treasury or
the victims the poor investors who
put it there. Tet wlthlnlS days in Bos
ton, alone there were sentenced four
different bankrupt prisoners to terms
of from three to 15 years In the peni
tentiary for pilfering a few thousand
dollars. The Investors of New Eng
land know these things, and knowing
them there are not going to take the
say-so of a Democratic, Republican or
Progressive Congress that business is
being held back solely because of this
or that theory.
"The people of New England have
had It burned Into their very souls dur
lng th past few years that the pres
ent Is no theory but a real condition.
So I say that regardless of the coming
electioneering promises of any of the
political parties, and regardless of
any theories which will be so liberally
fed out between now and next Decem
ber, that the present unrest, misgivings
and rears will not be dissipated, and
that the present high cost of living
will not even begin to drop until there
Is something done by the national law
makers which will show beyond doubt
that there Is but one law on the' na'
tlonar statute books for both classes
that, have come Into existence both
labor and capital, the- people and their
oppressors; something that will show
that If a letter carrier can be sent to
prison , for five years for. rifling the
mails or $20, a New Haven or Rhode
Island or Frisco millionaire pillager
must be sent to the same Institution
within, a reasonable time after he has
been caught red-handed In the theft
of millions of dollars entrusted to his
care by helpless orphans, women and
children and trustful men unacquaint
ed with the Intricate laws of high fin
ance. ' w
"The story of the letter carrier Is
a truthful one, and an equally truth
ful story is that there are walking the
streets today of a New England city
two ' men who have stolen from one of
our greatest railroads over 810,000.000
apiece, -one of these men a few years
ago was the keeper of a retail fence
tor thieves, and the other was a no
torious crook about town. Today both
of them are high In th directorships
and trusteeships of great corporations.
and tn histories of both of them arc
well known to all New Engranders." So
you see it Is evident to any thinker
that it will tak more than election
eering promises to make New Enr-
landers put their shoulders to the
business prosperity wheel to push the
car of progress out of the mire."
