Mr. Whipple smilingly refers to the
late Senator Thomas c. Platt Of New
York as the most punctual and patient
person that ever came to his studio.
Each day when the clock commenced
striking two" says the artist. II knew
the door would open and Mr.. Platt
would walk in. When 1 remarked that
his promptness in keeping appoint
ments with an artist were very un-
usual, he made what 1 considered a
remarkable statement"
"I must be prompt he said. or the
world win get ahead of me-"
Some Of the other notable people
painted by Mr.. Whipple are: Presi-
dent William Mckinley. John Sher-
man, Secretary Of State; Stephen b.
Elkins, Secretary of War; Gen. Ben
jamin F. Tracy. Secretary Of the Navy;
David r. Francis. Secretary Of, the
Interior: William L. Wilson, Postmas-
ter General; Gov oliver Ames OF
Massa chusetts; Gov. William A. Nc
Corkle Of West Virginia. Sam Hughes,
minister of militia of Canada and
"Uncle joe Cannon.
Many other persons of more or less
prominence throughout the United
States have had their portraits paint
ed in the Whipple studio, maintained
in New York for twenty-six years.
The life Of Constantine Bromidi. the
artist who devoted more than thirty

commendation from this master, be-

Mr.. whipple advocates brilliancy. such
as favored by the French school OF
modern artists under such leadership
as LIE Febvre and Benjamin Constant.
This artist has had q wide range OF
experience. He is. perhaps. best known
for his paintings Of public men. He
first came. into national prominence
along that line many years ago when
he painted the famous picture OF Maj.
Gen., Nelson A. Miles. who was then
the head Of the United States Army.
This picture now hangs In the Mill
tary Academy at West Point
One ftis most notable achieve
ments was the painting of a portrait
of the late Theodore Roosevelt for the
Republican Club Of New York. The
commission came during the presl-
dency Of Mr.. Roosevelt. and at time
when he was particularly busy. en-
deavoring to have certain important
measures put through Congress. The
President polttelyaand firmly told the
artist that he would be delighted to
accommodate him and the club. but
he simply did not have the time to sit
for a painting in the customary way,
but would be glad TO have the artist
come to the executive offices and paint
him as he worked. Mr.. Whipple was
undaunted and established a tempor-
ary studio at the White House, where.
between dictations. receiving of Con-
gressmen and foreign representatives
and frequent telephone conversations,
he finally succeeded in portraying the
Roosevelt features on canvas.

sitIon Of Mr.. Whipple was demonstrate

toll" was born in Rome. June 20, 1919.
His mother was an Italian and his
father a Greek. When still lad he
evinced remarkable aptitude for
drawing. His parents evidently were
real natural human beings, because
instead of insisting that he become
a lawyer. preacher. doctor or eminent
business man. they were content to
permit him to follow his natural in-
clinations and assisted the little fell
low by providing him with an art
teacher. So rapid was his progress
that at the age of thirteen he was
admitted as a student OF painting
and architecture at the Academia di
San Luca. 1t was at this academy that
he commenced the study Of fresco.
He also studied sculpture under Ca
nova.
His public career as painter was
modestly inaugurated through the
painting Of frescoes In the palatial
homes Of eminent citizens Of Rome
At thirty-two. he had attracted so
much attention that Pope Gregory
vi selected him to restore the
Raphael frescoes In the loggie Of
the Vatican. This was considered q
great honor for so young an artist.
Then followed the painting Of q
portrait Of Plus TX upon the
accession Of that prelate to the papal
throne. This painting was placed In
the Vatican. 1t was SO we'll executed
that the Pope manifested his appre-
citation by presenting the artist with
a gold medal.
At this juncture of Brumidi's life
an incident occurred that eventually
caused him to forsake his native land
and come to America. He was still
working on the Vatican walls when
he was commissioned a captain in
the national guard. When Rossi was
assassinated In the year or 1S48 and
Plus fled to Gaeta. Brumidi received
instructions from those in authority
10 order his soldiers to fire upon the
oppressed. This order he firmly de-
clned to obey. Under darkness of
the night, he was visited by de-
tachment of soldiers and dragged
from his home. He was rudely
thrown into prison, where he was
obliged to remain for more than a
year 1t was not until he gave his

self tells the tale in "The Forum:
"Haye you been a destroyer? You.
know, then, that it is lean, raksh craft,
armed with light guns, torpedo tubes, depth
bombs and every manner Of effective con-
trivance for hurting explosives into the
lurking Hun beneath the sea You know that
it is two huge magnifccntly mounted tur-
bine engines incascd in a skin of steel
the hull. You know that these engines
have the power of $1,000 horses, and that
they can drive the destroyer through the
sea as fast as forty miles an hour You
know that great ocean liner has no more
powerful force for propulsion. And you
can see that these destroycrs cannot be
turned out like emergency ships, that they
require the most delicate and intricate
workmanship; for they are the navy's
jewels and into their making goes the skill
of a matchmaker.
"Consider that ship can roll forty-fve
degrees, quartz Of the way over, and not
capsize. Now consider that the destroycrs
are built so that they can take a roll Of 107
degrees in safety Which is to say that
they can roll all the way over, and more
too, and still not turn turtle, but right
themselves. And think how these little
craft must be so constructed that no mat
ter what the roll of the sea may be, only
five and a half seconds are consumed in the
roll of the ship. Meaning, as a wave hits
it it goes to one side, then erect, to the
other side, then erect, all in five and half
seconds. In gentle sea the motion is not
so bad, but when the ocean rolls and the
destroyer is going all the way down to the
surface of the sea and back and down, and
back again, all in five seconds--'Oh lady!' as
the jackes say"

q 1RL O. MINE: Perhaps you wonder why
- you have not heard from me. At first
l hesitated to state the reasons, but as
President Wilson has declared himself for
pitiless publicity. it only seems logical that
I, one of his soldier boys, should share his
dislike for secrecy; and therefore write
to tell you that I am sojourning In the
guardhouse.
Having, at different times during my
career as soldier, scrubbed floors, polished
windows and done X. P, what is more fitting
than that should round out my military
education by samplng life in the guard
house? I will be honest with you, however,
and admit that am not hero Of nv own
voltion. In pointing out that my guard
house experience will round out my military
education I am merely viewing tho matter
phiosophcaly.
How did get here2 As Il is only in line
with my Wilsonic aversion for secrecy.
shall tell you, although I must admit that
the facts are not very much to my credit
1t happened one day that was in the COM
pany Of my father and mother, who wore
visiting the camp. I was showing of nv
knowledge of military matters and my
parents were becoming terribly impressed
with the fact that their son knew every-
thing about the army it was possible for

geant and yells, "Hey. you rummy, you've
got your leggings on wrong!"
Normally I should have thanked him for
his fathery interest in my appearance. but
these were not normal circumstances. Con-
sequently I walloped him one; and here
I am IN the guardhouse-the proper place
for a soldier who doesn't know enough to
put his leggings on right.
The sad story of my Imprisonment Is set
forth In the following parody which 1 have
written on "The Long, Long Trail" I have
entitled 1t "The Strong, Strong Jail"
One day felt very strong and
Punched a sergeant's head;
So guard said, "Come along" and
Here's where ! was led

And hope my dear,
That you'll not
Forsake me on tho spot
When the sad, sad news you heaY.

There's a strong, strong Jail a-standins
In camp, and that's whore dwell,
It's the place they put q soldier

that give it to him. And being most
respectful of his gun, complied. But not

might have, may be classed the man who
invented arithmetic The discovery Of the
stupendous, but doubtful fact that two

isn't finished yet.
This paper recently printed the insignia
and skeleton histories of the divisions of

number of prisoners captured by each
Prompted more by natural inQuistive-
ness than by postcard from a private to
the effect that Of the X. P.'s of his COM
pany hadn't captured more prisoners than

struck a total of the prisoners attributed

The joke is that all the prisoners the

nation that few hundred more, turned

turned.
1t isn't quite clear who this is on, but,
before we set 'om up for round, it may
be stated that the divisional totals printed
came from the stafs of the divisions them
selves, and that the most reasonable eX-

knew him then. He remained al-l ways with the army until he left f5r his home in Fairfield, Conn, where he is buried.
 Meanwhile, Warren continued mak inG locations or being included in them, but profiting nothing. His in- terest in one mine he lost through q foolish bet that he could travel d short distance up the canyon faster than man on horseback. What re- turns came to him he squandereo, and he died virtually a pauper. IL was from the early prospectings Of George Warren that the Warren dls- trict takes it's name.
 In 1881 he was brought before the probate judge of Cochise county on a charge of insanity, and he was coE. fined for a short time. When he was released, he went into Mexico, where he sold himself into peonage with the Mexicans, living like a slave until his condition was discovered, when Judge G. H. Berry satisfied the claims against him and brought him back to the United States. He stayed around Eisbee for a few years, al ways in a. worse condition from day to day, until the end came, and with i it such an incident as made the pioneers of the district believe that just retribution had come upon him 1 for his treatment of Dunn.
 Warren's Unromantic End.
 One day George Dunn, Jacks son saw Warren writhing in the sand 1T the street behind the lot where the
 Bank Of Bisbee stands now. preacher passed the stricken man by while Dunn ran to him and asked
 him what the trouble was. Warren
 gasped out that he was in deadly
 pain, and Dunn carried him to hi. cabin, where he died-attended by tho : son of the man to whom he haC shown nothing but ingratitude.
 The town of Bisbee was started il ! 1880, when the supervisors of Pim;
 county appointed James F. Duncan
 now living at Tombstone, as justic,
 of the peace, and William Fenton a!
 constable. A postoffice was estap
 lished here on Sept. ', of the sam,
 year, and the town named Bisbe, after Judge De Witt Bisbee, father in-law of John Williams, of the Sal
 Francisco mining firm of BisbeU
 Williams and Williams.
 ! In 1914 the Bisbee Lodge of Elk
 found the grave of George Warrel
 in an obscure corner. The earth hat fallen in, and near lay a rottin!
 board with the initials e. w. half
 obliterated upon it. The body wa
 transferred and over it a monument
 was erected.
