probable, "moonshined" within the
prison walls have caused a great SEN

The massive and powerful features
of William S Hart possess an inspira-

not fail to be among the many artists

the Pacific coast one who would feel
the Inherent appeal OF that remarg-

producing its strength and virility in
enduring marble.
The artist to whom this inspiration
came IS Christadoro. an Italian sculp-

many famous galleries on the other
side OF the ocean, ard who has also
exhibited ii New York with much
Resultant favorable comment. While

"KICK" Is GOOD ENGLISH WORD.
1t Is Not Slang in the Sense OF
Vehement Protest.

In n recent decision rendered by
Justice Oliver Wendall Holmes OF the
United States supreme court. he en-
ployed the word kicked" in wha.
many persons 3elieve to be its slaugy
sense. II is well known that Justice
Holmes is the son of the "Autocrat
of the Breakfas: Table" whose word
once in Roston and in America was
law in literature and in medicine.
Various newspapers have called at
tcntion to the fact that Justice
Holmes had behind this use OF the
word kicked" n long list of excellent
authorities. Doubtless the ultra
purist will continue to "kick' at tho
kicked" of Justice Holmes, when he
said: THE justice meant that the
defendent violently objected to the
decision and protested decidedly
against tho action involved" Tho
fact is that Justice Holmes used the
word in a sense in which II has been
employed ever since the fourteenth
century. Later, in 1896, we have on
high authority the statement: '"The
wicked doe ever kickC against the
preachers" III a Bible published in
1911, the year in which the King
James version was issued, we have
the words: Wherefore kicke ye at
my sacrifice?" Professor Lounsbury
often pointed out that so-called

After the scenes had been made, an
introduction was brought about. The
sculptor was profusc in his tributes
to the acting ability of Hart and
spoke to the star himself particularly
Of his remarkable face and his unique
gift or facial expression. He con
cluded with Il request that Hart sit
for him for a heroic bust of his head
and shoulders and also pose for a
full-length figure in his western
makeup. After some consideration as
to whether he coull spare the time
from his labOrs before the camera,
Hart Gsscnted. and for several weeks
took his place on the models stand
at the sculrtor's studio.
The result is two noteworthy
pieces of sculpture. Both are splen-
did likenesses OF Hart. and remark

seems to fairly pervade ana leap out
