If any one had ever doubted the place accorded Mansfield as- the greatest American actor now before the public, or indeed, as one of the greatest of contemporaneous actors, they could no longer have done so had they seen him in his two successes of this season, "Old Heidelberg" and "Ivan the Terible," the former presented in Indianapolis last week at a matinee, the latter at night. The amazing and almost incredible versatility of this brilliant exponent of the dramatic art was shown in these two plays, their rapid presentation one after the other giving the audiences an unusual opportunity for contrasting the two characterizations. In "Old Heidelberg," a translation from the German, and a pure idyl, which while ranking under the general class of "comedy," was yet a bit cut out of the tragedy of life, Mansfield could only be . denominated adorable, little as that word is applicable, after a fashion, to his sex. His make-up, which was yet so wonderfully manipulated as to be art which concealed art, transformed this middle-aged actor into the young and unsophisticated prince whom he impersonated, and his interpretation of this role, that of the ardent young being, bound down by the traditions and rigidities of a petty principaity, to the throne of which lie was heir, until he was, as he himself said., but a machine, an automation; his advent into the hilarious, mad and unconventional life of the university where he learned what it meant to live and where he fell in love with the charming niece of an inn-keeper, "Kaite;" his subsequent recall to the terrible and hopeless monotony of his old life by the death of the King when he can only eat his heart out with tears and longing and yet maintaining al lthe dignity of a sovereign; his visit to the university two years thereafter just before his marriage to a royal princess and his parting writh his sweetheart all this was done with the very refinement of art. Flawless, exquisite, superlative, it was to the general run of theatric impersonations as the scintillations of a diamond to those of a glass bubble. In "Ivan the Terrible' a translation from the Russian of A. Tolstoi, Mansfield's usual unerring judgment as to the interest of his public might be called into question, for in theme it is not one which could be especially absorbing to an American audience. There is no plot, the action is slight, and the motif obscure, although as a splendid spectacle, magnificently mounted, and scenically stunning, it is a delight to the eye with its wonderful color effects in texture, light and grouping. But in the characterization of "Ivan," the half demented, unreasoning yet monstrously cunning old tyrant, Mr. Mansfield achieves one of the triumphs of his career and presents a figure that will live in the traditions

of dramatic art. In the aged and at times almost senile face of this character, one could not, by the closest scrutiny, find the slightest hint of the fresh and youthful prince of the afternoon, but it is in the death scene where the greatest facial flexibility was displayed, the moment of dissolution being shudderable and positively terrifying. There can be no disputing this as one of the most marvelous characterizations ever seen on any stage and for its completeness Mansfield should be accorded undying plaudits. For, after all, for the moment, there is no art so great as the dramatic art when it is art, and not the poor, tawdry, repulsive imitation frequently masquerading under that name. And great, Great, is Mansfield.

The complimentary mention recently made in the Indianapolis papers concerning the work of Miss Bessie Whitridge, of this city, and copied into the papers here, was no more than deserved. Miss Whitridge has frequently within the past few years

been made the subject of eulogistic remarks by the writer of this column and that she now is regarded as one of the leading ceramic painters of this section is acknowledged. Mis? Whitridge rs work has long since been

accorded a place outside the ranks of !

amateurs, and her recent essay into the difficult field of ivory painting and its successful issue, is indicative of her versatility. Several years since some remarkable figure work in pencil and chareoal was shown here, the work of a Mr. Hinshaw, pupil and protege of Mr Seaford. Since that time Mr. Hinshaw has been studying, for the past year and a half in Paris, and Mr. Bundy has received the information from Mr. Hinshaw himself that he is this year represented in the Salon. This is certainly a remarkable record and shows that the talents dis

covered by Mr. Seaford were genuine. Mr. Hinshaw writes Mr. Bundy ithat he will send something for ex-

-TfvW.. The Fine Arts Journal for April is an unusually interesting number, but the May issue will be a notable one, as it will be a special world's fair number containing sixty or more sculptural reproductions of groups to be seen at the St. Louis Exposition, and will be a notable "issue of this publication in every respect.

Whistler, says a contemporary, had a French poodle of which he was immensely fond. Upon the dog's being seized with an affection of the throat, Whistler bad the audacity to send for the great specialist, Sir Morell Makenzie. The latter was not very well pleased when he arrived and found it was a dog he was to treat, but said nothing. The next day Sir Morell sent in great haste for Whistler, who, thinking it was something in connection with his dog, hastened to the residence of the noted physician. Upon his arrival Sir Morell said in his gravest manner, "How do you do; Mr. Whistler. I wanted to see you about having my front door painted." Anent the reference made last week to Mr. Forsythe's suceess in having seven out of eight pictures accepted for Fine Arts Exhibit at the world's fair, it is interesting to know that three of these were oils, four water colors. "Late Afternoon," an oil, was especially commented upon by the jury and it was also said that the water colors surpassed anything in that medium submitted by any western artist. When it is considered that out of the nineteen pictures selected from Indiana, seven were from the brush of one artist, Mr. Forsyth may well be congratulated. c m Mr. Henry S. Hubbell, a Kansas youth, who studied at the Art Institute, Chicago, has been making a great impression in Paris, where he is at present exhibiting with the American Art Association. Mr. Hubbell paints large canvasses and has frequently exhibited in America. All painters and lovers of still life should read the article in the current Fine Arts Journal concerningthe work of Marie 6sthaus Griffith, of Toledo, whose work in this form is so well

.known, Mrs Griffith being the sister of the equally well known animal

CURES NERVOUSNESS Chemist Catfford, off Phila., Gives Strong Testimonials for Paw Paw. I had a most severe attack of gastritis, which has caused me great suffering, I was; recommended to try Munyon's Paw Paw, and did so merely out of curiosity and not expecting to be benefitted. Before I had taken half a bottle, however, I noticed a marked improvement, and less than two bottles effected a complete cure. I made an analysis of this remedy, and can truly say that I do not believe there is another such strong combination of curative properties so scientifically blended for the purification of the blood and control of the stomach and nerves as is Munyon's Paw Paw. I consider it a safe, pleasant and absolutely effective cure." (Signed) D. A. CATFORD, Chemist 125 N. 16th 6t, Plpla., Pa.

Mrs. Griffith's paiintings of still life are exquisite in manipulation of light and shade, in color and composition and are becoming notable. It is said that the smallest painting in the wrorld has been executed by a Flemish artist. It is painted on the side of a grain of ordinary white corn, the whole not being a half inch square and in order to be seen to advantage must be examined under a

microscope. It depicts a miller mounting the steps of his mill carrying a bag of flour on his back the mill being represented as standing near a terrace. A horse and cart are seen close at hand, while a group or two of peasants are to be seen in addition, the whole being worked out with

marvelous accuracy in detail.

One of the great "sights" at the Exposition will be a floral clock 100 feet across its dial, to be lighted at night by 1,000 incandescent lights, the minute hand to be fifty feet long. There is also to be a garden of 50,000 rose trees, and wild species known to the fields and woods of this country will also form a separate outdoor exhibit. Altogether there is to be one of the greatest botanical displays ever seen in the Avorld's history. The greatest loss sustained to the world by the recent disaster to the Russian navy in Asiatic waters, was the death of the great Russian artist, Verestchagin, who was on the vessel with Admiral Makaroff. Verestchagin was, perhaps, one of the greatest painters of scenes incident to war who ever lived. Among his pictures are included battle scenes from the Russian war in Turkestan in lS67;the Russo-Turkish war in 187S; the Transvaal conflict, the Santiago and Philippine campaigns of the Spanish-American war, and the Boxer campaign in China, all these pictures being painted from sketches on the spot. It was at the suggestion of President Roosevelt that he visit Cuba in 1902 and make sketches of the Santiago battlefields and the scene of the destruction of Cevera's fleet, and one of his canvases is of the troops charging up San Juan hill. His fame, however, rests largely on his pictures of Napoleon's campaign in Russia and realistic paintings of New Testament subjects. He left St. Petersburg for Port Arthur early in March, traveling with the Grand Duke Boris and other notable personages. He was born in 1842. The exhibition of the American Water Color Society and of the Society of American Artists are both still on in New York, and some small exhibits of early English, Spanish, Italian and Flemish paintings are attracting attention.
