The Kaiser and Art.

The Kaisers latest role Is that of
champion of the painters whose pic
lures have been rejected by the man
agement of the annual German art ex-
hibition. Out of 3.OuV pictures offered
only 600 have been accepted. and 1t is
alleged that the selections are due to
favoritism and improper influences. 1t
is stated that the modern impression
list school is favored at the expense of
the other styles.
The painters of the 2.40O rejected
pictures laid their grievances before
the Emperor, and 1t appears that their
protest has been successful. A high
official in the Ministry of Education.
Privy Councillor Mueller. who is chiefly
responsible for the management of the
art exhibition, has quilted his post. 1t
is understood the change Is due d.
rectly to the Emperor's initiative. 1t
is probable that next year the En-
peror intends to participate personally
in the selection of pictures. when the
impressionists. whom he labhors. will
secure less prominence.

What has been considered an i'm
possible feat in mountain climbing has
Just been performed. thereby proving
its entire possibility. Mount Tacoma,
or Mount Rainier, as it sometimes is
called. has been scaled by two daring
mountain climbers-Dr. w. R. Belts
of New Orleans and II. y. Saryant of
New Orleans.
DIR. Belts held the theory that the
mountain could be surmounted. and
the proof has been given, although in
doing so the mountain climbers were
compelled to cut more than 500 steps
in the ice.
At one point they found ayalanches
had carried away the great rock above
Gibraltar, on which previous climbers
who had made a partial ascent had
depended in ascending one of the
steepest places.
This mountain stands 14,444 feet
above the sea and is the king of
mountains" in the United States. 1t is
thirty miles south of the city of Ia
coma and stands in solitary grandeur.
The climb really begins at Reflec-
tion lake. For the first 400 feet the
The Lamar register., 1903-11-11

men made their way over spole OF
broken rock They crossed grass plots
and snow banks and Zis-zagged over
snowfields. finally they came to the
gully at the head of which stands the
peak. Scaling this. they were con-
fronted with an easy climb of fifty
feet and then reached the summit.
The top of the peak is about ten by
twelve feet square, formed of slabs OF
rocks set nearly on edge, accessible
on only one side.
After inspecting the different routes
which had been tried in vain attempts
to reach the top and which could be
examined with clearness from the
peak, and after viewing the splendid
scene laid out before them. the two
climbers made their way back to their
camp on the mountain side, where
they spent the night.
On the following day they began the
descent They had still 1000 feet to
descend, but the snow was good. The
feat they accomplished is regarded as
one of the most difficult which has
been attempted successfully in the
history OF mountain climbing.

The expectation of butter and eggs
