British Loss s32 Men

In the Battle at MagersfOuteIn Men,
day---Boers Are Now in Front and I'm
Rear of Methuen aud There Is Great
Anxiety in London.
Lord Methuen cables that his losses Mon
day were S32, of which 695 were sustained
by the Highlanders. This brigade seems
to have been allowed to advance in the
dawn to within pointblank range Of the
Boer works at Magersfontein and literally
crushed by a sudden. unexpected fire. It
speaks volumes for the British regular that
in spite of the confusion a Boer sortie on
their flank was Iepelled and the troops re-
tired in what was far from a rout. The
Black Watch suffered most severely, but
100 men escaping unhurt.
An artillery attack on the Boer position
followed, the burghers making no reply
until afternoon, when an attempt by the
Gordons to retrieve the morning disaster
and take the position was repulsed with
murderous rifle fire that greatly increased
Methuen's losses. That night the British
slept on the field, returning Tuesday to
their old camp on the Modder river. The
retirement seems to have been embarrassed
by the Boers, and Methuen cables that his
position is perfectly secure.
This feeling is not shared by the military
experts Of the London press, and the fact
that Free Staters with artillery were at
tacking an armored train at Belmont, far
in Methuen's rear, while he was engaged
at Magersfontein seems to justify the fears
freely expressed for the British commune
cations. At the very least the Beers have
succeeded in putting what was intended to
be column Of offence on the defensive,
besides inhcting severe loss on the best
troops England can put in the field in an
engagement from which the British have
not obtained the slightest advantage.
The British wounded, left on the field,
Methuen says, were treated by the Beers
with the greatest kindness. Methuen may
now await further reinforcement at Mod
der river, where he has now been Is days,
or he may, as is urged by some of the Lon
don military critics, retire on the Orange
river.

'The Art Life OF william Morrl. Hunt.n

''The Art Life OF william Morris Hunt.'
Brown & Co. of Boston have published
''The Art Life of William Morris Hunt"
by Helen NJ. Knowlton, who was pupil
of the artist and taught with him for years.
After turning the last page of this book
the reader feels that he has been for several
hours in the company of transcendently
noble spirit-'a good, great man." Brat
tleboro people remember with pride that
no one has done more for American art
than this modest man, a native of this
town, who is buried in the cemetery over
looking the village, beside his father, the
Hon. Jonathan Hunt, in his day Con-
gresham Of note. The late Richard NJ.
Hunt, brother of the artist, was the fore
most architect of this country.
William Morris Hunt, while trained in
the best continental schools and filed with
reverence for such European masters as
Rembrandt, Velasquez, and Jean Francois
Millet, he was still both individual and
national, and deserved the encomium quot
ed with approval by Miss Knowlton:
Hunt was the most vital element that
has appeared in the art history of this
country"
The intellectual attainments of Hunt
were accompanied by moral excellences
equally great. The life of the artist who
was pronounced by Diaz ''the most brilliant
man whom he had ever known" was one
long battle against misconceptions, dis
coursgement, Ill health, and, in his later
years, pecuniary embarrasments. Yet the
battle was a cheerful one. Even after the
great Boston fire of 1872, when his Sum-
mer street studio, with its priceless pic
lures, was lost, he refused to be disheart-
ened. He was ever the most hospitable of
hosts and the gayest of guests, and was
noted for his droll wit and his exceptional
powers as a storyteller. He was the first
to find merit in the work of struggling
artists and to say word of appreciation.
He was whole-hearted and honest, an in
defatigable worker, and entirely free from
pretensioD.
The crowning work of his life was the
completion of two colossal mural paint
| AhSe NC OlSSoNcleA anu nc rlSul
of Night''-for the Assembly room of the
new Capitol building at Albany. he was
"a years old when he began this gigantic
task. After its accomplishment his health
was never the same. He died at the Isles
of Shoals, New Hampshire, in 1879.
Miss Knowlton has enlivened her pages
with many anecdotes, of which the follow
ing is one: "Wben asked the question,
What should be the limit of age for study
in the Boston Art Museum?' he replied
From the age when Beethoven began to
play the piano-four years-to the age
when Titan painted one of his greatest
pictures-90 years."

Another Fatality at Fair Haven.

DIR. Clark Smith, a Prominent Physi-
clan, Crushed Between a Moving
Train and the Platform at the Rail-
road station.
DR.. Clark Smith, prominent physi-
clan, aged about 60 years, met horrible
death at Fair Haven yesterday afternoon.
BE went to the Delaware & Hudson train
with lady friend of his family and after
seeing that she was seated in the car at
tempted to alight from the train, which
was already moving out
The doctor missed his footing and fell
between the high platform and moving
cars. The platform is about four feet high,
reaching about even with the bottom of
the car. Between the cars and the edge of
the platform is a space of only about eight
inches. The unfortunate man was of
heavy build and as the train moved, contin-
ually gaining speed, his body in an up
right position was kept spinning like top
in this narrow space. The struggles of
the man and the frantic efforts of the by
ISLANDERS were of no avail. The train was
soon stopped, but life had been crushed
out of the man. Every bone in'the upper
part of his body was crushed. 1t was nee
essary to chop out part of the platform to
extricate the body. DR.. Smith was an old
resident and well known through this part
of Vermont. He leaves a widow.
