The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-01-19

Literally a treasure trove was found in the Tutwiler hotel yesterday. for Carlos H. Meinhard has come to Birmingham with art treasures worth many thousand of dollars.
 His is an art collection. paintings by the foremost artists of today The ex- hibition seems bit of the. Metropolitan musuem of New York or the Pennsyl- vania museum of the fine arts of Phila- delphia, of the Gibbs are gallery of Charleston.
 He is exhibiting two Blakelocks in the collection, one an autumnal landscape, soft and brown and feathery. with an as tonishing depth and, in the far back ground the skyline showing foothill, smoky and indistinct, yet the realism of the artist fairly grasps you in his daring to break the horizon symmetry of the hill with rugged line of trees. Who but a Blakelock would have thought c1 such a disregard of precedent,
 Blakelock, as may be remembered, is the artist who painted unknown for years and lost his mind through neg lect Twenty years after he became fa- nous he recovered his reason and Was the lion of a few short months before death took him.
 The second picture by this artist is of gold-kisSed clouds seen through mass Of sombre foliage, contrasts as vivid as at a Moorish court of the fifteenth century, yet perfect in their absolutism and symmetry. It is haunting picture, not easily forgotten.
 There are several fine examples of the later work of l.. Irving Couse,f whom many claim has supplanted Frederic Remington as portrayer of western scenes in the United States in frontier days. His tones and colors are softer than Remington's or Maxfietd Parrish s medieval imagery. but there is a warmth and distinctness that marks his work as vivid as either of the other masters.
 William H. Howe and William Watson are both represented with fine examples Watson in particular has a group of Angus cattle in Scotland that are all but living things. One can almost see the furry hair of them ripple in the wind The picture will be great some day be- cause of the intricate suggested detail Like many great painting, or most, for that matter, a close view shows merely the strokes of a paint brush but twenty feet away the artist seems to have care
 fully painted in every strand of hair.

State Department Refuses to Accept Account of
 Warning.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Warnings or local authorities, disregard of which, reports to the Mexican in. terror department declared, resulted ln the killing of F. J. Roney and Earl Bowles, Americans in the Tampico region several days ago amounted in the opinion of officials here to noth- ing more than the waiver which all Americans are compelled to sign be- lore they can obtain a Mexican wise for the Tampico region on their pass. ports.
 This waiver, by which the persons signing it agree that no claim in case of harm or death shall be brought by his heirs or employers, has ever been recognized by the state department. Accordingly, officials held today that Mexico. in order to give a satisfactory reply to the inquiry from this gov. ernment as to the deaths of the two men, must prove that they received specific warnings other than those contained in the waiver.
 Information reaching the state de partment today was that the wound sustained by Bowles in the foot was made by Mauser bullet. Carranza soldiers are known to be the only Mexicans in that region who are pro- Vided with Mausers, officials said. Advices given out in Mexico City, that the two Americans were mistak- en for smuggleIs of munitions to Manuel Palaez, the rebel chief, was discredited by officials.

 Mr. Bryan did not tarry long in Washington, leaving early in the day for Lincoln, Neb., where he will speak Monday. He will deliver an ad- dress in New York January FPS So far as learned, he did not confer with Democratic leaders here before his departure.
 The cabinet met today, but if the members discussed the split between the president and MT. Bryan on the treaty issue, or MT. Wilson's stand, they would not admit it.
 Democratic leaders did not attempt, however, to minimize the effect that the split might have, both at the con- vention and at the polls in November, if it should be carried that far.

 Estimating that the Nimrods are 60 per cent correct in their forecasts, the deer family should be extinct in Ari- zona about 3:35 Friday afternoon. Every hunter you meet knows just where he will kill his first animal and just how many deer roam the wilds in every section of the state.
