To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
On my farm, one and half miles north
of Solsberry, Greene county has been found
a sorrel mare. The animal had been shot
and apparently hidden in a small ravine
The animal was five years old, with small
star in forehead. clipped name, white on
right hind foot to point little above the
pastern joint, medium sorrel, in fair
flesh and visible bemishes. The breast
and under parts of the animal are covered
with mud, she having from all appearances
been ridden very hard on a public road
just before being shot / have inquired care
fully. but none of my neighbors ever owned
or saw the animal. She lies one-quarter Of
mile from the nearest highway, with three
good rail fences and heavy timber interyen-
ing. From appearances she was put there
between the LIST and 18th of December The
matter was not investigated until after the
snow fell, but the snow having melted
away in places she was tracked back a
few rods, indicating that she had not come
from the nearest highway but one more
remote. There has been no stock in the
field for over two months and the animal
could not have come there of her own ac-
cord. She was first found on Christmas cav
by some boys who We're hunting The affair
is complete mystery to the people of this
community and publication may develop
some crime in connection with the matter

A Circulating Picture Gallery.
New York Mail and EXPRESS

A circulating picture gallery seems, on
the face of ii, to be good an idea that
one wonders why il has not become an sac-
complished fact long ago 1t seems that the
Hull House settlement in Chicago is the
first 10 carry IL into effect. I do not know
who is entitled to the credit for this bril-
liant idea.
The plan is to circulate the pictures lust
as books from library are circulated ANY
one picture may be retained for two weeks
with privilege OF renewal. The pictures are
framed, and Ii is said, they are cared for
most carefully by their temporary owners
To poor art students, who are anxious to
save the time and the fatigue Of constant
walks 10 and from galleries. this must be a
great boom Instead of going to art it
brings art 10 them. The idea of the cir
culating picture gallery is not, however
meant exclusively for artists. 1t is de-
signed to reach the poor. and to give them
that love for the beautiful which must re-
suit in good. No one can hang a picture
with any merit at all in il on a bare wall.
upon which their eyes must rest every day.
without being uplifted by il in that subtle
fashion that only good pictures can exert
1t Is said that the pictures most in de-
mand at the Hull House collection are Fra
Angelicos Paradise" the "Sistfne Ma
donna" and others of Raphaeps This
would suggest the devotional spirit in a
sense. and unquestionably contemplation of
beautiful pictures does touch the Spiritual
side of ones nature.
