The artistic talent of E. s. Paxson.
which has been kept in the background
more on account of the artists modesty
than any other reason. has at last
broken the barriers that SO long held
it in check and invaded the ranks Of
eastern connoisseurs, who. in pronounc
ing judgment on his work, have been
forced to admit that this section of the
wild and woolly west contains ssome-
thing besides statesmen and a few dozen
million dollar mines.
Mr.. PaXson is resident of Butte, he
having made this city his home for
many years. His present address is No.
80 East Woolman street., and right back
of his residence is the studio from which
his artistic genius has enabled him to
turn out paintings that are now attract
ing so much attention in the east. The
painting that brought the Butte artist
into prominence and forced the knowing
ones of the Orient to meekly but re-
Mctantly acknowledge the existence OF
an artist outside of Italy and France
was Clusters Last Battle" which Col
onel Bracket took east about year
ago an ! placed on exhibition. This pic
ture attracted great attention and COM
PEELED those who saw it. artists included,
to realize the fact that among the sage
:
clad Rockies there lived a man who
could give them all cards and spades
with the brush by comparison in ability
and make their reputed costly produce
tons look like thirty cents The Custer
painting was followed east by other pic
lures from the brush of the Butte artist,
several of which were exhibited in Chi
csgo. They, too, attracted great deal
of attention and aroused the curiosity
of some of the art critics who at once
communicated with Mr.. PaXson to as
certain how long he had been In Amer
ice and from what foreign land he came.
Among those who recognized Mr.. Pax
sons genius and desired to know some
thing about him We're the members OF
the Maurne club. an organization COM
posed of persons who, in matters of art
know good work when they see it, Ac-
cordingly, Mrs Marian A. White hon.
orary president of the club and writer
on the subject of art, communicated
with Mr. Paxson and acquired the de
sired information, together with pho
tograph of the artist. which she par
ticularly desired. On the 26th of last
month the club held a meeting and dis
cussed Mr.. Paxson and his work. after
which it adopted the followig resolu-

of big real estate deals in which he
made money fast. Later he invested
in 100 acres of land which he pur-
chased very cheap.
Now the great Lucas geyser has at
