ON AMERICAN ART.
The Artist of the Yosemite
Returns Home.
He Can Hardly Find Words to Express
His Disgust of the American Art
Display at Chicago.

Thomas Hill, known as "the Artist of
the Yosemite" arrived in this city yester-
day, having just returned from Chicago
via the Northern Pacific.
MI. Hill is considerably improved in
health. as result of his travels, although
he expresses himself AS being much pleased
at having once more the privilege of
breathing the pure air from the Pacific
and enjoying the mid climate OF Cali
fOrnia winter.
When seen last evening by CALL re-
porter Mr.. Hill spoke quite freely of is
impressions while visiting the Worlds
Fair, and expressed a few opinions Of the
various exhibits, particularly OF the art
display. which reflect quite disa strously
on the American artist.
u must say that the American exhibit in
the art palace was the poorest attempt on
the part of civilized country | have ever
seen," said the speaker. Il have visited
all the worlds fairs which have been held
since the year 1851. and naturally made
special study Oh the paintings exhibited
by all the nations OF the universe, and have
never been more thoroughly disguised than
on my recent visit to Chicago.
I'm the first place the management failed
To secure sufficient works to fill the roomy
quarters, and in order to make up the de-
felt Instituted loan exhibit which made
pariSOn between our American side and
that of Europe was decidedly conspicuous.
heard on every side such severe criti-
clsms from coHnolsseurs OF art, which S CO.
incided with my views, that l fairly felt
ashamed to admit my nativity.
"OI course L am speaking as a whole.
The few exceptions which partially lifted
the cloud are few and far between, though
1t could be said that the words of Keith
and Innis might be classed as SUCH Both
these artists received the highest criticism
for the mastery pieces OF work exhibited
by them"
The speaker then entered into a long
discussion as to the merits of each indi-
vldual exhibitor of native birth, the sub
stance OF which is far from complimentary
to the American artist, However" he
con cludeu, there's time to improve"
Mr.. Hill intends to reside in this city,
and in the near future expects to complete
the immense painting which has received
much notoriety through the press, "The
Grand Canyon of the Colorado. I"

self-defense and ended the fight, but did
not know whether be struck the man or
not. Curley was locked up and charge
OF assault to murder placed against him.
Inc man that bad been shot at could not
De found. He was not taken to the Re-
ceiying Hospital. Some of the crowd in
Inc neigh borhood said he was shot twice
In the head and had been taken to his
nome, while others said he was not hurt
at sill, but was so badly scared that he ran
away and hid himself.
No Thanksgiving for Him.
A. Peterson. Swede, who lives on
Lewis street, m ade great preparations on
wednesday evening tu celebrate Thanks
giving. He said that things were all right
IN his home and started out to lay found
alton for the feast on the morrow. Peter
son got mis- foundation and started the fes-
tIvlties by going home and clubbing his
wife. He enjoyed it. but she didn't. and
called Ofncer Moore, who took the bellig-
erent to prison, where he spent all day yes
terday thinking over the good time he
might have had.
At the Jail.
The inmates of the County Jail were not
given dinner at the peoples expense this
year. They had to be content with the
usual prison menu, except such donations
as were sent in by friends and charita b e
organizations. However. there was not
much sent to the four murderers and they
could only give thanks that they were still
alive.
Wire PuIlers.
Joseph Mcguire and James Craven were
seen by police officer with large coil of
copper wire in their possession last night.
They were not able to give satisfactory
explanation OF where they got it. They

REMONSTRANCE.

To the Honorable Members of the
Ninth General Assembly of Colo
RADIO.
We, the undersigned electors OF
the city of Bessemer, Colorado, enter
a most emphatic protest against the
passage of S. b. No. 379, the same
having been introduced by Senator
]. F. Drake, and relating to the con
solidation of the cities of Bessemer
and Pueblo.
Said bill represents Bessemer as
having a population of 10000, aud
that the people of Bessembr have
for several years past desired con-
solidation with Pueblo, when the
facts are the population of Bes-
semer does not exceed 5000, and a
large majority are opposed to con
solidation under the terms as en-
bodied in said bill.
We denounce the bill as being un-
just and unfair as it takes from us
the right of franchise and unites us
with Pueblo against our consent.
We therefore earnestly protest
agninst the bill and petition that
your honorable body do not enact it
into law"
The above is copy of the re-
monstrancs which has been so ex-
tensively signed, $40 names having
been secured and no canvass hav-
ing been made at all. The remon-
STRANGE with the names Of $40 men
who attest that Senator Drake is
away off when he declares the
people of Bessemer have always
been in favor of consolidation, was
sent from this office to Represent
ative Lennard Thursday and he will
put it to good use in the Legislature
The Drake bill must be killed.

Against Coercion.

THE people Of South Denver look
upon the question Of forced con-
solidation in the same light that
Bessemer does and speaks to the
legislature through Its board of
trustees in no uncertain manner.
The earnestness and wisdom of the
resolutions cannot fail to have due
weight with the legislature, and in
making its own fight South Denver
is aiding Bessemer in her protest
against being forclbly annexed to
Pueblo. Following are the resolu-
lions as reported in the Denver News:
WHEREAS, A bill is now pending be-
fore the legislature of this state, knewn
as "a bill to amend the charter of the
city of Denver" by which it is proposed
to annex the town of South Denver to
the city Of Denver and seize the prop
erty Of said town, in value more than
100000, for the benefit Of the said city,
without consulting the people Of South
Denver: and
WHEREAS, At a public meeting Of
the citizens of this town, held Feb
ruary 20, the following resolutions were
passed unanimously, viz:
RESOLVED, that this meeting requests
the trustees Of the town Of South Dem
yer to officially protest against the an
nexation Of this town to the city of
Denver as proposed in the bill now be-
fore the Legislature, and that they
notify the Legislative committee having
charge of said bill OF said action; and
WHEREAS, A large majority Of the
legal voters Of this town have signed a
remonstrancs against being annexed as
proposed, therefore, in obedience to the
expressed wishes Of the people whose
servants we are and with whom we ere
in entire accord,
RESOLVED, That we do solemnly pro-
test against this proposed destruction Of
the municipal rights guaranteed us by
the constitution and the statutes OF our
state, and the seizure of our valuable
property without allowing our people a
voice in the matter, as one Of the most
unjust and unoalled for measures ever
proposed in an American legislative
body.
RESOLVED, That we denounce the
claim to superior wisdom assumed by
the trainers and advocates Of this bill
in proposing to deprive us Of our munici-
| pal rights and seize our valuable
property without consulting our citizens
Or allowing thsn . ohoics, q unfoundsd

THE Defeat of the giant Austral-
ian, Goddard by Ed Smith of Denver
at New Orleans clinches the argu
ment advanced by many when Cor.
bett defeated Sullivan, that a new
school of pugilism had come into the
arena and that the big giant OF
herculean strength must give way to
the lighter, more shifty pugilist who
wins his battle by avoiding the
sledge hammer blows of his antagon.
ist. Sullivan and Goddard were
phenomenal fighters until men faced
them whom they couldn't hit. The
tightening like shiftings and delusiv c
antics of such actors as Corbett and
Smith puzzle their big antagonists
and wear them out in vain endeavor
to pound something.
