The event Of the week in the art
life of Indianapolis is the display OF
a half dozen canvases from the brush
of Mr.. Walter Gilman Page, the well
known portrait painter of Boston,
who is sojourning in Indianapolis for
the winter, the pictures hung IN the
Lieber Gallery on Washington street.
This column referred to Mr.. Page s
advent into the state capital some
time since, Mr.. Page and his wife
having been at the Claypool large
part Of the winter.
The six portraits there seen by Mr..
Page show great versatility in treat
ment, clever handling of medium and
excellent draughtsmanship, together
with a certain unconventionallty IN
pose altho' this artist disclalms any
effort to pose sitter. One may pose
a model-not subject for portrait
"pure ct simple In the latter in
stance self consciousness results and
the psychology of the human entity IS
allowance. One Of the portraits or
display was not a portrait literally,
being the charming head of woman
painted from tn model. but the 9th
err five were pictures of people, two
of indianapolis, three residents Of
Boston. In Judge Anderson Of the
Federal Court now living in the for
mer city, Mr.. Page had fine sub
ject which he has interpreted with
certain subtlety, the ego seemingly
subdued altho' there is evident
careful analysis of character 1t has
a tremendous pictorial quality, how
ever, and the use Of color is unusual
and effective, the comparison of this
portrait with those of the two Bos-
ton business men shown, resulting
startlingly. The latter are merely
replicas on canvas of the features of
two average men. The former is the
conception of the artist and is, addi-
tionally, colorful thing. The por-
trait of Mrs Hoffman, the wife of
the present mayor of indianapolis is,
also, interesting in its use of pig
ment and is said to be an admirable
portrait of that lady
Mr. Pages only full length can
vas shown is striking in pose, being
the figure of a young woman of fash
ion with her head turned slightly in
a sort Of listening attitude, the treat
ment Of the white draperies being
worked out more, perhaps, than is
usual with Mr. Page, the ensemble,
however, stunning and brilliant in eff
feet. Mr. PAGE himself talked very
Interestingly upon portrait painting
and of his art in a general way and is
delightful to meet as is his very
charming wife who IS a Canadian by
birth. Mr. Page himself spent his
most formative years abroad, hav-
ing long been a resident of the ia
nous "Latin Quarter" both as a
student and later on. The Pages re-
turn to Boston late in the spring as
Mr.. Page has important commissions
to meet at that time.

DETAILS OF TERRIBLE
NANSHAN HILL STRUGGLE
ASSOCIATED Press Mail Dispatches
,Assoo1ATED PRESS oAsLEeRAmss

(Associated Press Mail Dispatches.)
TOXIC, May 28.-The japanese as
sault on Nanshan Hill was one of the
fiercest and bloodiest affairs in modern
warfare In the earlier rushes of the
engagement every man participating
was shot down before he reached the
first line of Russian trenches. It was
found necessary to stop these infartry
charges and renew the artillery fire
from the rear before the final and sue
cessfuI assault on the Russian position
could be made. The success of this as
sault was brought about by one de-
tachment of japanese troops, more in
trepid than comrades. who succeeded in
piercing the Russian line.
A splendid stroke of fortune was the
discovery and the destruction by the
of the electric wires leading

| to the mines at the Eastern foot of
| Nahshan Hill. This prevented the Rus
| slams from exploding these mines when
| the Japanese infantry crossed the
ground where they had been placed.
WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED.
It is possible that the fortunes of the
day hinged upon these mines If the
Russians had been able to explode them
| at the right time the losses among the
Japanese troops would have been tre-
mendous, and it is possible also that the
Russians would have been able to hold
the hill.
Nanshan was spIendidIy defended.
Nearly fifty guns of various sizes were
mounted on the various emplacements,
and there were also two batteries OF
quick-firing field pieces. The artillery
was sheltered behind loopholed trenches
on the terraces Of the hill. The infantry
manning the field pieces ran with them
around the hill, thus using the guns
for the protection of the most inpor-
tant points.
The Japanese began the fighting by
bringing all their field guns into action,
and concentrating their fire on the en-
placements on the hill. BY eleven
o'clock in the morning the principal
Russian batteries had been siIenced.
The two Russian field batteries then
withdrew to Nan Quan Ling Hill and
from there continued to fire on the jap
anese until nightfan.
THE FINAL ASSAULT.
After the Russian batteries had been
siienced the Japanese artillery opened
on the enemy's trenches, the Japanese
infantry advancing, meanwhile, to
within rife range. The japanese grad
uaily worked forward to within 400 me-
ters Of the Russian lines. where they
encountered wire and other entangle-
ments. They succeeded in discovering
an opening in these obstacles. and get
ting finally to within 200 meters of the
Russian trenches, they rushed for the
line Several successive charges were
made but every officer and man in the
attacking parties was shot down 20 or
30 meters from the line The charges
were then stopped, and the japanese
artillery renewed its preparatory fire on
the enemy's position. Towards evening
a detachment Of japanese carried a
section Of the Russian trenches. break
ing through the enemy's line. Hundreds
