The development or a distinctive Amert
can school of art requires rertain condi
tions whJch It U easier to define than to
realise. Tho alternative resents Itself,
either of bringing; over the foreign artist
Into the atmosphere of American lifts, or of
sending our own artists with their home
born Ideals to takeshape under the train
ing of tho beat foreign schools. Too often
the going abroad of the American artist
results either in the loss of the American
tone and Inspiration in his work or in 1U
wubordl nation to school mannerism and
technique to such an extent that any dis
tinctive native element dUappears. Thus
we have Americans taking prhces in the
salon, but usually for pictures that most
nearly approach tho French ideals, while,
on the other hand, our artists are apt to
bring from abroad not only the technique
of the foreign school, but the more depress
ing and repellent aspects' of Its spirit There
have, of course, been many notable excep
tlons. Baint-Gaudens and French have put
a distinctive American motive into monu
mental sculpture, while men like Whistler
and Bargent lend us the luster of their
names by producing works distinguished
by the universal rather than the local
quality of their genius.
A very Interesting approach to the real
isation of the ideal conditions is brought
to publio notice In the works of the Ameri
can sculptor who Is the object of this
sketch. The approval of the Jurors of the
Paris exposition of 1900 was shown in the
award to Mr. Borglum of a silver and
bronse medal, the former for the pieces
'The Scout" and "The Lame Horse," the
latter for the bronse casting of "The Buf

shown the reader will not fall to detect a
freedom of handling and a deep feeling of
sympathy with the life Of the American

1868, In Ogden, Utah. During his infanoy
his parents removed to Omaha, where they
still live.- Most of the son's early life was
spent on his father's ranch In western Ns

24th year that he yielded to the persuasion
of his brother John, an artist residing In
Santa Ana, Cal., who urged him to come
and live with him and. begin the study of
art. After a period of Initiatory study there
Solon went to the Art school in Cincinnati,

tlon. It is said that for six months he de
voted one day a week to these anatomical
studies. No veterinary surgeon in the coun
try was his superior In the knowledge of
the structure of the horse. In the surgical
Institute of the city he also pursued his
studies of the human anatomy so far as to
entitle him to a diploma had he desired it
In the second year of his studies In the
Cincinnati school he won the home schol
arahlp, snd In a few months left this coun
try for Europe, Intending to make only
short visit. In Paris he began to work on
"The Uttle Horse in he Wind" and
group of "Cowboys Lassoing Wild Horses."
He became so absorbed and Interested In
his work that he decided to remain .and
finish it for the salon. The group was so
cepted. favorably placed and attracted
much attention, while "The Little Horse"
was purchased by the Cincinnati Art mu
seum. So much Interest had Borglum In
spired among artists In Paris that they
advised him to remain and produce a large
work for the next salon. This resulted In
his exhibiting In the next year the llfe-slxe
group. 'The Stampede of Wild Horsea"
The animals are represented at the brink
of a precipice, and the wild motion, tho
pause, the horror, the plunge are all pow
erfully depicted In the skilfully chosen pose.
'The Little Lame Horse was exhlbtted
in bronse. Both of these pieces received
the mention honorable.
The summer of 1899 Borglum spent among
the Sioux of Crow Creek reservation in
South Dakota. Here he studied the In
dian, not alone from without, but from
within, entering with sympathy Into his
Interests and his occupations, and learning
to know him through genuine friendly and
human companionship. This he was en
abled to do through the good offices of the
Rev. Hachallah Burt, an Episcopal clergy
man, who for years has been the spiritual
father and guide of the Indians of that
locality, and who Interpreted their talk.
and with his help these taciturn Indians
were induced to lay aside their reserve and
to pose for the young soulptor at his will.
Not lens strange and subtle was Borglum's
use of the Indian pony as an art subject
Here, too, by truthfulness to nature he
won the final approval even of the French
critic, accustomed as he Is to the ma
jestic outlines of the typical French horse.
'The Little Lame Horse" has . won his
laurels even In Paris. The Indian and the
pony, the scout and the cowboy, are sub
jects having a certain pathetlo Interest in
common, and they are treated by a iyra-1
pathetlo artist, wholly new to the art of the
old world. In a manner to bring into art a
new motive. One feels In the production
of young Borglum's chisel the man him
self, the free citizen of the great west,
whose vision is as broad as the prairie sky.
whose muscle Is os firm as bis heart is
tender, and whose eye looks straight for
truth.
Exhibits at Paris.
At the exposition of 1900 were shown the
two works, 'The Little Lame. Horse,"
which had been exhibited In the salon of
1899, and the new work produced after his
sojourn in South Dakota, "The Indian
Scout" or "On. the Border of White Man's
Land." In the salon of 1900 was also ex
hibited "The Buffalo," which afterward
was given a medal for the casting by the
Paris World's fair' Jury; In the salon of
1899 'The Stampede of Wild Horses," al
ready mentioned, which by request was
placed In the center of the United States
pavilion in Paris; and In the salon of 1898
'The Horse In the Wind" and "Cowboys
Lassoing Wild Horses." Other works of
Mr. Borglum's are 'The Rough Rider,"
'The Sandstorm," ."Horse and Colt,"
"Horse and Snake" and "The Indian War
Dance."
The piece which probably has aroused
the most Interest of all thus far exhibited
Is "The Indian Scout" It was shown In
Omaha 'on the' return of the artist from
his three months' sojourn with the Indians,
and thence was taken to Paris, where it
underwent some changes in the design be
fore being ' sent to the exposition. The
models for the group were none other than
a scout of General Custer, the famous
Black Eagle, and his pony, which figured in
the celebrated skirmish along the Missouri
river In the early 70s. It represents an In
dian crouching beneath his horse at the
brink of a precipice and gazing searcblngly
for the enemy beyond. The pony stands
patiently, ready to bear his master away
at an Instant's warning.
If we may not claim for Borglum a tech
nical proficiency that makes him a present
rival of his elders among American sculp
tors, no one can deny the existence of a
conscientious skill, and exquisite fiber and a
thrilling motive In his productions, that
seems to be born of American skies and to
breath the spirit of American life. Time

"I remember the first Memorial day In
our town very well," said the man who
was a boy In the 60s, "and I remember
the decoration of soldiers' graves with
flowers long before the custom was con
centrated on one day as it Is now.
"I was born Just too latcto do any fight

broken-hearted because I was so young.
Both my older brothers went to the front

"I remember, too," he continued, "how
the first company of volunteers from our
neighborhood marched from the village
down to the railroad station to take ths

to be mustered in.
"All but mr Mg brother, Jim, In oar

Illasloa Shatters.
"Wen, I saw the 'real soldiers' right
enough when they marched away, but they
didn't look like real soldiers to me. The
sight of our volunteers was, In fact, the
first shattering of an illusion for me. In
stead of wearing smart 'regimentals,' as
I had expected, they all had on citizen's
clothes; some of them were dressed in
their Sunday-go-to-meetlngs, to be sure.
but more wore their every-day duds; and
they didn't march a bit as I thought they
would. They went in pairs all right, but
they Just walked along, without keeping

"When the train came along they all

outraged my boyish notions of the manner
In which fighting men should start for the
war.
"I had read In the history books about
the fortitude shown by the mothers of
Sparta when their sons went away to
fight, and I was especially ruffled by the
goodbye sobs that were heard here and
there from the mothers and wives and
sweethearts. There was nothing Spartan

would, be One big fellow among the
volunteers, I remember, broke down and
cried outright, but most oft them .were im
patient of the tears. , Not one in twenty
of them thought they were likely to have
much real flghtlna; I'm. morally sure there
wasn't one who realized in the least what
he was likely to encounter in the south.
New Came Slowly,
"My most vivid memories of the weeks
Immediately following the departure of the
volunteers from the village have to do with
the nightly gatherings at the poatoffice and
at the houses of the neighbors. Word from
tne front and the volunteer camps reached
our village mainly through the 'Seeml
Weekly Trybune,' aa we used to call Mr.
Greeley's newspaper, and on two nights of
the week some member of the party would
read the war news out to the others; nights
when there was no paper there were hot
discussions of the situation. Often, also,
there was reading of letters from the vol
unteers, who for a long time were held in
camp at the oounty seat, much to their
disgust, waiting for guns and uniforms,
"Just before they finally got away, my
big brother Jim got a leave of absence for
one day and came home to see us. He had
his uniform then a loose blouse-like Jacket,
ef cheap, dark blue cloth that fitted him
wretchedly; lighter blue trousers and the
worst looking shoes I had ever seen. ' He
didn't look nearly as trim and neat as the
soldiers do nowadays. In my eyes the only
redeeming feature about hia uniform was
the brass buttons on his blouse..
"After the "boys' got away to the front
their letters came oftener for awhile, and a
little later the 'Seeml-Weekly began to
give news of real fighting. Only small
skirmishes at first, to be sure, but genuine
hostile meetings all the same.
There was a village wag who, for a
time, when reading the news, used to In
terpolate incidents of his own Imagining.
Ons night be read a wholly fictitious story.
telling how Hiram Wilbur, a great, hulk
ing young farmer of the neighborhood, had
been hit by a cannon ball, whloh, read the
wag, had lodged In his chest and could
not be removed, though the surgeons at

working at It' This story was swallowed
whole by some of the postoffl.ee crowd, and
applauded aa a wonderful Joke by the un
thinking.

"Some of the older men, though, my
father among them, discouraged that sort
of thing. They thought we were likely
soon to get news so serious that even the
village wag would be ashamed that he had
made a Joke of .war.
"My father was Justified when the news
of the first Bull Run fight, with Its story of
the utter rout of tho northern forces, came
through. The lists of killed and wounded
and missing In the columns of the 6eeml- 1
Weekly Trybune' contained names that
werawell known In our neighborhood. My
big brother Jim's name was not In the list
that time, nor were any of our neighbor
hood names among those of the killed, but
there was no more reading of Imaginary
news at the postoffioe after that Even the
Tillage wag began to realise by that time
that the war was a serious thing. The
ninety-day" notion was forgotten In our
Tillage, and the Tillage wag himself was
one of the volunteers when Father Abra
ham's' second call was made publio. I

they were so anxious to help him get
started again and to hear him tell about
his own bravery. It must be admitted that.
though he never minimised the tremendous
importance of his own services to the coun
try, he was always fair, even generous,
his comrades from our village and neigh
borhood.
"But there came a time when Doo Hem-
Ingway's star waned. Most of the bad
teeth In the village and surrounding terri
tory were pulled or filled after a while,
and besides, so many of the producers were
away that money got scarce. Also, other
soldiers, some without an arm, others with
only one foot, and one poor fellow with
both arms and both legs gone, came home
soon, and the hero worship was divided,
golem Remladers.
"Maimed soldiers bad hardly become
common sight In our village, however, when
one day there was taken from the bag
gage car of the noon train a big, oblong
box, to meet which a solemn delegation
had marched down from the village. The
ministers of all the three churches headed
the delegation something before unheard
of there, for denominational prejudice
were strong In our village before the war
and besides these were the local Justice,
the two local lawyers and all the other
prominent men in the place. The flag on
the liberty pole was hung at half-mast,
with the union down, and with a broad.
black stripe added above and below; and
all the church bells tolled from the time
the train stopped at the station till the
procession had tolled its way to the Preeby
terlan church.
"It was the first of the many war fu
nereis that were held In our village, and it
cast a most profound gloom over every'
thing. We boys, who had been allowed to
form a company of Juvenile home guards,
were also allowed In the procession. We
were as much cast down as anyone In the
audience. the largest that had ever been
known In the village. Farmers drove In
from their homes miles and miles away,
Not nearly all could enter the churohv and
out-door services were held for those who
had to remain outside.
"The body In the big box was that of the
schoolmaster, who had blown the fife so
enthusiastically on the day our volunteers
had gone away to the war. Moat of the
boys In the Juvenile home guards had been
his pupils, but we all forgave him on that
day for the skill with which he had wielded
the ferrule upon some of us. His grave
was the first. soldier's grave in our v.llage
to be decorated with flowef s. It would have
been decorated If he had been the most un
popular man In all that region; aa he was
one of the best liked, the mound of earth
under which they laid hia body away was
fairly covered with home-made wreatus
and bouquets.
Victims Kaltlplled.
"After that, - as the war went on, the
eight of maimed and sick men who wore
the blue in the streets of the village be
came so common that the villagers took
It aa a matter of course. Oblong boxes
came often, too, and there were more sol
diers' funerals and more flower-strewn
graves, for the volunteers from our neigh
borhood belonged to a fighting regiment
that was decimated again and again.
"By and by my brother Bam passed his
18th birthday and followed my big brother
Jim to the front. To us boys, who were
not more than 9 or 10. years old when the
fighting began the war began to seem the
normal thing. Destitution among soldiers'
families began and all the women in the
village and neighborhood spent a good deal
of their time scraping lint and making
bandages for the wounded and putting up
bags and boxes of things to send to the
men in camp and hospital.
'By easy stages the war became the Uni
versally absorbing topic. War songs took
the place of almost all other popular muslo,
The note of underlying sadness expressed
in 'Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys Are

feat everywhere. There may have been
many Jolly war songs, but I remember only
one . that was at all Jolly. The orthodox
version of this old song wound up In this
way: ,
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.
But it was sometimes sung surreptitiously
by the older boys a little differently;
And we'll all drink stone blind
When Johnny comes marching home.
'As the years wore along the stay-at-
homes began to take dally newspapers In
stead of the 'semi-weekly,' for It did not
give tha news promptly . enough to 'suit.
and the nightly, meetings at the postofflce
were enlivened and made more Interesting
by the views and comments of tho vet
erans whose terms of enlistment had run
out or who had been Invalided home. My
big brother Jim was one of these, and
soon after his return my father, his pa'
trlotlsm set on fire by one of 'Father Abra
ham's' calls to arms, went to the front
to take his boy's place.' To us boys who
were too young to fight' It began to seem
likely that the war would last long enough
for us to grow to the soldier's age, as many
had who were only a little older than we.
Nothing- Like It Today.
The boys of today have nothing la their
lives, It seems to me, so absorbing as the
growing history of the war unfolded to us
dally in the papers and in tho letters from
our fathers and brothers was to us. We
studied battle pictures in Harper's and
Leslie's with an intanslty that can hardly
be described, and, though our Tillage waa
so far inland that none of us had ever
aeen a ahlp or a steamer or a piece' of
water large enough to float a vessel, we
learned enough about naval matters to un
derstand the news of tho liver and aea
fighting very well.
"The war maps, too, both those appear
lag in the papers and tha larger ones to
hang on tha wall, which were sold by en
terprising canvassers, were studied by us
as fsw boys study anything nowadays so
far aa I can learn. There waa on of these
maps showing tha course, of Sherman's
march to the aea' by means of a broad
purple band, which bad a peculiar and ab
sorbing fascination for us all. I have a
copy of that map now; it holds the place
of honor In my den, and I atudy It still
sometimes, for my father waa with Sher
man when mlnnte bullet put his name I
among thoee in the awful list of the
killed la the Tribune.
The most vivid memory of all places
that dreadful list . before my eyes even
now sometimes; it Is more vivid even than
the memory of my father's funeral. It
seamed unreal to all of ua, because hia
body could not be brought baok, and I
have never been able to put flowers) on
his grave. The custom of half-masting
tho flag on tha liberty polo for soldiers'
funerals had been discontinued, they had
become so common, but waa revived again
when the funeral services wore held for
him.
"The memory next most vivid Is of the
day when tha flag on tho village liberty
pole, black bordered, reversed and half
masted, proclaimed to the nstghborhood
the news that Lincoln had been killed. It
would be Impossible to describe tho grief
and dismay with whloh our village and
the neighborhood reoetved this newa
Nearly every house and nearly every farm
had its own private liberty pole, and long
before night the flags on them all were
In mourning, reversed and at half-mast.
Everybody grieved as If a member of his
own family bad been taken away, and
the sorrow was so intense, tho altock so
sudden, so unexpected, that the whole
community was fairly stunned. "
