"The Hermitage" at Brookville, Ind., a landmark that during its history of over a century . has yearly drawn an autumn gathering of middle western painters, was partly destroyed by the Indiana flood. Hardly a square foot of its walls but is decorated with the work of artists now famous." Whether anything has been saved of this collection Is questlonablee, since the present occupants were Imprisoned by the rising .water, and were taken from the house in boats by neighbors. After having been owned for many years by Mr. and Mrs. George M. Shirk, now living at 4628 Lake avenue, Chicago ."The Hermitage" became the property of J. Otis Adams, a member of the Western Artists" association. The distinguished picture represented Brookville scenery, and testified again, to the inspiration that doxens of painters have found in. the autumnal coloring of the oaks along the White Water -river. The houM was built In 1808 by Wil

liam Butler, whose son, Amos Butler, is nowsupe-rlntend,ent of charities of Indiana. Before" It, bordered on two

sides by the curving river, stretches

the lawn with the oaks that In differ

ent groups and illumination have been

painted more than eighty times by T.

C. Steele alone. With Steele congregated there every year dosens of ar

tists from Chicago; Cincinnati and In dianapolis. . . '

The front verantra of the Hermitage Is 113 feet long, recalling by its architecture and setting the home of George

Washington a" Mount Vernon. Mr.

Adams has ,hls studio at one end of the facade, while has wife, also widely known by her canvases, occupies the

opposite wing.

Because Mr. Adams has been lame for years It Is feared there was no opportunity to take part of the contents of the house to higher ground

when the flood spread. The north half of the building has been swept away, and It Is yet to be determined whether the remaining part can again be made

habitable. ' . :
