Gutzon Borglum 40 Today

John Gutzon de Ia. Mothe BorgIun
one of the most famous of American
scuIptors, will begin his fiftieth year
| today. Gutzon Borg1urn, as he is COM
monty called, was born in Idaho on
March rs, 1867, the son of DR.. James
de la Mothe Borg1um. He received
| his early education at st. Mary's Coli
lege in Kansas, and then took up the
study of art in San Francisco, later
continuing his studies in Paris. His
younger brother, Scion Hannibal
RorgIuna, also became a, devotee of art,
and, like Gutzon, achieved fame as a
sculptor.
Gutzon Borglum's first notable work
was exhibited in Paris, and won high
praise from the French critics In the
beginning of his career as an artist
he was both sculptor and painter, but
in latter years he has well nigh re-
1inquished the brush in favor of the
chise1. He is almost as we'll known
in London and in Paris, where he long
resided, as in his native land. The
colossal figures of the twelve apostles
at the Cathedral of st. John the
Divine in New York, and the Sheri-
dan monument in Washington, are
among the best known of his works.
Other famous pieces include the colos-.
sal head Of Abraham Lincoln in the
rotunda of the Capitol at Washington,
and the gargoyles on Princeton Dor
"
great sculptor is his faninine Atlas, in
which he has EXPRESSED in marble his
conviction that the real burden of the
world is supported by women. The
broad shouldered heavy, bearded At
las of the anciehts has been replaced
by the tense and nervous form of a
woman. straining every muscle under
the weight of the great globe which
rests on her shoulder.
4 Mr.. Borglums most ambitious task
which has been described as the big
gest scuIpturaI undertaking in the his
tory of art. is to transform a granite
mountain into IA monument. He has
been engaged by the United Daugh-
tiers of the Confederacy to carve a
great frieze 1000 feet long and fifty
feet wide on Stone mountain. near At
lanta, Ga. The figures to be carved
on the face of the mountain will com
menbrate the valor and achievements
of the soldiers of the Confederacy, and
will stand as a lasting memorial of
the s1ost cause" The brave men of
the past will be- carved in high relief,
in action, mounted, and on foot The
figures will be of colossal size, and the
equestrian figures will reach a height
of from forty to fifty feet. The fore
most men in the different branches of
the Confederate service, cavalry, artiI-
lery and infantry, from each state, will
be represented. The mountain is of
solid granite, and it has resisted all
attempts to blow it up.

ammunition factories of Canada. I'D.
A. as he was usually called prior to
his elevation to the House of Peers,
was given this mission by David Lloyd
George, his Welsh countryman, soon
after the latter was appointed Minis
ter of Munitions. The coal baron was
given the fullest responsibilities for
the discharge of his important duties,
and he succeeded SO well that King
George included him in his list of New
Years honors The new lord is a sur
vivor of the Lusitania tragedy. His
only daughter, Lady Mackworth, was
also a passenger on the fated vessel,
and was picked up unconscious after
she had been in the water for three
hours. Before the war Lady Mack
worth was prominent as militant
suffragist, and once spent several
hours in a cell on the charge of hav-
ing set fire to a pillar box. Lord

THE REICHsTAG

The first German Reichstag was
opened in Berlin forty-f1ve years ago
today. The Reichstag is the lower
house of the imperial parliament, and
represents the people, but the SOW
ereignty rests in the Bundesrat or fed
era1 council, which represents the in
dividual states of Germany rather
than the people. The Reichstag as
constituted before the outbreak of the
present war, had 397 members, elected
for five years by the suffrage of all
males over twenty-five years of age.
Prussia elects 236 of these members,
Bavaria 43, Saxony %, Wurtemberg
II, Baden IA, and the other states
from one to fifteen each. Before the
war the Social Democrats had the
largest delegation of any party, and
might have had a majority except for
the districting Of the empire by which
