The two started in ample time, but
owing TO a street blockade were de-

Ushered into the reception room, they
found 1t vacant. The guests had been
seated promptly on the stroke Of the
hour.
Mr.. Chamberlain wasn't worried.

in his blandest tone to the tlunky.

The Russian Painter Portrayed by a
Friend.
From The London Morning Post.

From The London Morning Post
VI. Georges Claretie has been giving the public
some intimate details of the life of NJ. VassiH
Verestchagin. According to him, the painter
had in himself the elements Of a hero he was
warrior at heart, though never in love with war.
He fought by the side of Skobeleff in the Russo
Turkish War. and carried in his head and at his
finger points thousands of exciting episodes seen
with his own eyes and registered by his re-
markable perception. During this he
reported dead, but. fortunately for art. the vic
tim of the shell his brother and not him
on one occasion the late Emperor is reported TO
have said: Il forbid you to let yourself be
killed. Russia has many officers brave your
self, but no painter equal TO you
The artist made his debut in Paris Ger0me's
pupil. Among the students he excited as much
awe as admiration, for none dared to try prac-
teal joking in regard to him. The Salvage de
Sparte.' as Dumas fills called him. would have
made short work of would-be "raggers." But
of sentiment he had no lack as his studio later
on showed. 1t was perfect museum of relics.
He had flags of various kinds tattered and
soied, telling all their tales of mighty engage
ments but one among them was peculiarly
treasured. since in the faded silk lay a per-
fumed sachet from fair lady who had given
the souvenir to nerve her warrior 10 conquest.
On one side Of the atelier you could read the
character and courage of the man he in

glOries of carnage; the other the poetry of the
painter. glowing with the red and gold radiance
OF Eastern atmosphere and rich with the reck-
less prodigality of sunshine and passion.

Claretie furnishes a tale that is highly charac-
teristic- Once he painted picture of a wounded
Russian abandoned in the snow in the midst of
a vast wintry landscape Only the ravens. dot

So great was the painters horror Of war that
it steeled him TO picture every detail in its bald

VOLTS Just published journal gives some enter
tanning anecdotes on this subject. Speaking Of
an occasion on which he was dining with the
Emperor William l. Bismarck remarked: THE
bottle OF wine Steinberger Cabinet Of the
CD brand. The Emperor told me that was TO
drink daily iqueur glass OF it. He was. how
ever unacquainted with my drinking capacity
for what once put to my lips take good care
to empty. I did not drink the bottle in the
Emperors presence. but petit comite."
Later on, Bismarck gave his views about
champagne. Herr Wolf had observed that great
progress was being made IN the German cham
payne industry, upon which the prince said:
German champagne does not agree with me. On
one occasion in Berlin. German champagne was
handed round the table OF the present Emperor
napkin being wrapped round the bottle, / was
Immediately that the champagne was German, ana
/ accordingly put down my glass. The Emperor
asked me why l did not drink it. In reply to my
answer that German champagne did not suit me-
the Emperor said: L drink it, first. by of
economy. for l have a large family to support. and
want to set good example to my officers; and
secondly from patriotic reasons. To this l
piled. Your majesty with me patriotism only goes
far as the stomach.
On another occasion Bismarck related the fol-
lowing anecdote about wines:
Formerly. when wine was still cheap. everybody
could both drink and stand more of It remem-
Der the story of two from the Rhine. They
met together in the morning for a drink and on
sitting down, Of them said the other. in
the dialect peculiar to the Rhine districts, This
after emptying his last glass, the other one made
answer. And 1t agrees with one. too
