Mast is deeply lamented by the ma
tives, who held him in high esteem.
Thomas Mast was appointed consul
general at Guayaquil this year, leav-
ing New York for his post July L.
He was born in Landau, Bavaria, Sep
TENDER 81, 1910, and came with his
parents to the United States six years
later. AS caricaturist and cartoon
list he became famous.
Thomas Mast may be said to have
been the original newspaper cartoon
ist, and it was to his talent that car
toons in the daily press owe their
earliest development. Among the
well known caricatures and types
used in political cartoons Mr.. Mast
created many. The Tweed money
bag, the republican party elephant,
and the democratic jackass originated
with him. The line of work since de-
veloped and improved by some was
entirely of his own creation.
