Young Prince was one Of the best
known avistors in the Franco-Ameri-

rank knf.ssrssant- major, and was tXieA
decorated by the French government,
receiving the second honor last week.
Scores Of times Prince had escaped
death BY inches in battles with German

GETS REMBRANDT
Buys "Old Woman Reflect.
ing Over Lecture" for
Country Gallery

A Rembrandt, entitled AN Old
Woman Rejecting Over the Lecture"
one Of the paintings In the famous col
lection Of Jules Porges, Of Paris. has
just been acquired by Henry c. Frick
for his gallery at Pride's Crossing,
Mass.
The painting. which was purchased
direct from III. Porges by Mr.. Frek
for $3.50, 700. is tho fourth Rembrandt
to enter the Frick collection. The
others are the famous "Polish Rider" "
Portrait Of Rembrandt" and Portrait
Of ar Artist"
With the acquisition Of this latest
painting it is estimated that within the
year Mr.. Frck has spent about ST.
100000 for famous canvases.
When taken 10 the Frick homo the
new owner accorded his latest Rem
brandt a place Of honor between the
Portrait Of Man." by Frans Halls,
and Van Dyck's Portrait Of the
Duchess de Brignola Sala." 1t was
painted In 184e, when Rembrandt was
forty-three.
"The subject Of the picture" said an
art critic, ais q very old woman. with
a sweetly melancholy face, In which the
sorrowy and establishments Of life
have failed to take anything away.
Rembrandt gave this face the utmost
pains. In IL there arc thousand wrin-
kles, and the stretching Of the skin
over the homework Of the face is most
realistically painted. II is only in the
drapery that Rembrandt used his brush
broadly. She wears red headgear. a
brownish dress with white sleeves, a
piece Of brown fur about her shoulders
and a golden collar ~
The painting was exhibited In 1911
In tho Exhibition Of the Great and Lit
