arrived in this city last Thurs
day night and carried A. G. Gil
more to Aberdeen. Gilmore, it
will be remembered, is the white

that both FL. E. Pittman and A.
@. Gilmore had been indicted by
the Federal grand jury and that
they would be tried at the pres
ent term of the court. The Off
GERS state that they have a strong
case against them and they con-
fiden tly look for conviction.

but in his way he was a of character and
gifts no less deserving of remembrance. His
work though not often seen in the exhibitions,
was deeply appreciated by those who had
cess to II, and had he chosen to make himself
known by the ordinary methods he would doubt
less have long since been as familiar to those
who haunt the galleries as are divers admired
artists having not tithe of his ability. AS it
was. he remained content with the sympathy of
his fellow painters. One of them, himself we'll
qualified to speak on the subject, has said that
he was the best technician of his time.
Born in New-England in 1866 he was still a
young man when he proceeded to Paris and
entered the studio OF Bonnat There are legends

extraordinary skill and aplomb Collins shared

one Of the few who could sketch in the key
OF the Spanish master and make the sketch
worth while. But he abardoned that line of
endeavor, in which. indeed, he had never been
really absorbed. and formed the style by which
he was known in this country. 1t is a style
which at first blush might be disposed to
classify with that Of Bonnat, who undoubtedly
contributed something TO its development But
the soldity of Collins's modelling, the rectitude
of his draughtsmanship and the almost austere
simplicity of his design while recalling the
Frenchman, were really but the expression of
the painters own temperament. To those who
knew him intimately of his salient traits
was intense striving after perfection, a de-
votion TO his ideal which was in itself en-
kndlng. His portraits of men are packed with
character, and they are powerfully executed
Sometimes, where he meant to be forcible he
was apt to be harsh. but those occasions were
rare. Such canvases as those which he painted
