Samuel q. Kaufman.
From the Washington Post.
A friend Of art, Jealous upbuiIder OF
the national capital. public-spirited and
broad-minded citizen is lost In the death OF
Samuel Fl. Kaufman. This modest and
conservative man was not seeker after
praise. nor detractor of the deeds of other
men. He was content to contribute his
share-more than his share-to the we'll
being of Washington, and the success Of his
well-directed efforts was the only reward
he eraved AS president of The Evening
Star Newspaper Company, Mr. Kaufman
was able to contribute powerful aid to
many public movements and this he did
for twenty years.
One Of the memorials OF Mr. Kauffmann's
farsghtedness and public spirit Is the Ma
ttoilal Museum. which came into being
largely In consequence Of his timely and
sasacious counsel. The Corcoran Gallery
OF Art. almost national institution has
expanded under his able presidency since
| 1891 The welfare OF many societies for
the cultivation OF the arts and sciences was
his constant aim. It was a remarkable
trast IN the character or this typical Amert-
can business man that not only enlisted his
| sympathies In broad fields Of art. but ena
| bled him to become connoisseur whose
| tastes seemed to bear little relation to bis
| everyday tasks. His travels augmented his
studies In enriching his mind In these direc
tons.
