Mrs. Winnie Ream HOXSie'S :.
Career as a Sculptor

How would I teach a girl to model?
I would shut her up in room with
lump of clay. If she could not evolve
anything worthy from that, l would
conclude that she would never be
sculptor
Mrs. Winnie Ream HoXsie offered this
simple suggestion as she sat one aft
ernoon last week in her quaint draw
ing room in the Aberdeen. The sim
plieity of the advice, could not hide It's
wisdom. Perhaps, as she offered 1T,
the picture of her own art beginning
flashed into her mind. Perhaps her
thoughts flew back to a certain famous
studio in Washington and to a tiny
girl who, at the suggestion of friend,
made for the first time from a bit OF
clay a perfect copy Of an Indian mead
the sculptor had himself just modelled.
Winnie Ream was the name of the girl.
The clay had been placed in her hand.
She had evolved something worthy.
When two years ago Mrs. Hoxsie
came with her husband, Maj. HoXsie,
to make her home in st. Paul, society
recognized Immediately her Importance
as social factor. She was that rare
individual, a cosmopolitan with enthu-
Siasm; a woman with an old world pol
ish, new world honesty. Society was
only sorry, in half-hearted way that
she was not to pursue her beloved art.
80 much better for society, if SO much
the worse for art it argued.
But a year ago the announcement,
was made that with the consent of her
husband, withheld for eighteen years.
Mrs -Hoxsie would resume her work
and then it was the turn of the work
ers of the city to rejoice. Illness has
recently interfered somewhat with that
work, and a change of work necessitat-e
ed the closing of the first studio she
opened in ST. Paul, but she Is about
to open a new one in one of the rooms
of her suite in the AberdeeA and she
will begin here her work of modelling
the statue of Ezra Cornell, the found
er of Cornell university. Mrs. Hoxsie
is now at work-on a bust of ex-Gov.
Ramsey, and she has a number of
smaller commissions. She expects to
devote three years to the Cornell
statue.

dramatic little episode in the Wash
ington sculptor's studio, the young girl
took up modelling serious. 1t was
during the stirring reconstruction pc
riod. Her parents social position in
the capital made possible an acquaint-
anceship with many great statesmen
who delighted in her budding talent
and who helped to foster it. President
Lincoln's was one Of the familiar fig
ureS on the streets of the capital.
Finally the great emancipation gave her
some sittings. She was only fourteen
years Of age then, but the impression
made upon her by the great man is still
fresh in her memory.
"a sad, silent man, always brood
ling" she says of him.
Six months after the sittings were
over Lincoln was dead. When shortly
afterwards the little artist heard that
an appropriation had been made for a
statue of the man she sincerely mourn.
ed, an ardent desire came over her to
enter the lists with the great artists.
She had this in her favor, she was the
only one Of all the competitors who had
been accorded sittings. But she was
only fourteen. And what work had
she done, the committee asked her,
almost sarcastically, as the members
gazed with curiosity at the slim, pale
faced girl. She was awed but not
OduHl6u. I10T U0SISH was turned IN
with the others and the commission
was given her.
Then came Rome. With her parents
she set sail for that Mecca Of all art
lovers, and the next three years were
spent in the Eternal City. They were
years of hard work, but they were
years of pleasant companionship as
we'll.
Famous Men Called on Her.
She had some famous callers at her
studio, this young artist still in her
teens. There was the great artist,
Dore, then in the height of his fame:
there was List, the pianist; Pere Hya-
cinth, and Cardinal Antonelli. Dore
painted a picture for her, List com
posed piece of music in her honor.
the cardinal gave her many beautiful
souvenirs. One OF these, a medallion
of Christ, made in the popes private
workshop, is beautiful little art
treasure that Mrs. Hoxsie particularly
prizes. The medallion is quantity set
In Etruscan gold that displays the
wonderful purity of the tiny marble
head. The sculptor has many similar
mementos of friendship with the great
ones Of the world and she has the
strong personality that dares surround
itself with these. They do not detract
the visitors attention from her, but
help to center it.
Before the sculptor returned to this
country she visited the Carrara quar-
| ries and selected the block of marble
from which the statue Of Lincoln was
l to be chiseled. She herself chiseled

NEW YORK, April 4-Niss Elsie de
Wolfe gives us a new revelation of her
abilities in Cynthia" the play in
which she has the stellar role at the
Madison Square theater. If Cynthia"
be not an excessively clever comedy
full atonement is made by the clever
work of Miss de Wolfe and her sup
port. The plot of "Cynthia'' is as fol-
lows: Cynthia, a wealthy American
girl, marries an Englishman who is
supposed to be rich. The young peo-
pie embark upon a life of luxury which
increases in extravaganza as it pro-
ceeds. The husbands father stops all
lowance. In her emergency Cynthia
secretly borrows a large sum of money
from German usurer. Wonder pre-
walls that the pace can be kept up. A
wealthy young friend of the family is
suspected of supplying Cynthia A
quarrel is on the tapis when Cynthia
confesses about the usurer to her hus-

More money is wanted and the Ger
man broker suggests Cynthia's going
on the stage. Cynthia refuses but
proves her capability. Brisk bidding

as 1t happened, she had the deciding
vote. The Farragut statue is consid-

artistic triumph as we'll as pretty ro-
nance.
How She Met Her Future Husband.
For the artist met her future hus-
band While she was at work on the
Farragut model. A constant visitor at
the Farragut home, she met there a
guest, Capt. HoXsie, who was friend
Of the admiraPs son. Before the statue
was unveiled the young people were
engaged, and when she promised to be
the army officers wife, she also prom
ised that she would lay down her chisel
for good. And for eighteen years Mrs
Hoxsie did no more modelling. She de-
voted herself to her new home and the
care of a young son, and if she longed
to continue the career that opened so
brilliantly she made no complaint, but
strove to realize her own ideal of what
wife and mother should be.
Two years ago her usband, a major
now, came to st. Paul to take charge
Of the government dam now being con-
structed between Minneapolis and ST.
Paul. They rented their Washington
home, which faces on Farragut Square,
deciding that a permanent residence
in Minnesota would benefit the health
of both.
Mrs. Hoxsie has closely identified
herself with the various philanthropies
Of the city and also with club life. She
has given her time and strength to the
promotion of every worthy charity, and
she has, moreover, gladly aided with
her advice the art workers of the city.
