Philip Hale of Boston, addressed s large and appreciative audience at the Woman's Club on Tuesday afternoon on the- sibject of Portraits and Por- trajty Painters. Mr. Hale stated that portrait painting began with sil- /housettes traced upon a wall, and that lttle progress was made along that line of work until olt paintings came into fashion and were given promi- nence by Van Eyek. One of the first rtrait painters of note was Domenico 9 was the U of the famous i1, who in turn Instructed Titian. Artists have always eopied the works of Titlam, regarding nim wondertul in his style and colering. ' His best known portait is called Titlan's Daughter. The portrait of Mona Lisa with her engaging smile, painted by Leonsardo Da Viael is considered unapproacha- ble. All portrait painters owe a debt of gratitude to Van Dyek who exert- ed a great influence upon English painters. Modern portrait painting began wth the time of Sir Joshua Reynolds. Mr. Hale particularly ad- mires the works of the French artist Ingrés and makes special mention of our American artists, Stuart, Copley and Whistler. Mr. ‘Hale closed his talk by saying that portrait painters were striving after greate psycholog- ical insight in their work and for . greater subtlety of color SPECIAL COUNGIL MEETING Session Will Be Feld Friday Evening to Act Upon Report of Boesrd of Public Works on Storchouse.

Sent to Germany, Upon his return from the Philip- pines, Colonel Shelton was sent as a special representative of the U. S. government to Germany to witness military maneuvers. While there he was presented to the Kaiser and other members of the royal family. During his stay here he also noticed Germany’s preparations for war and remarked about it upon his return. Returning from Germany he was placed in the insular department of the army under the command of Major General C. E. Edwards. After four years of service in Washington he was sent to Panama, where he spent the resi of his time before going to Europe in this late war. With 26th Division. Colonel Shelton was chief of staff of the 26th division during the period of organization, and went to France with that division in 1917. In December 1918 he was assigned to command of the 104th infantry and was in command of this outfit at Chemin Des Dames, Apremente-Bois Brule and Champagne-Marne de- fensive which occupied his time until July 17, 1918. At this time he was assigned to command the 51st In- fantry Brigade. He commanded this Brigade which included the 101st and 102nd RANT, J. 8. A Infantry, at the Aisne-Marne of- fensive and at the St. Mihiel drive. When the news of the Asrmistice reached the men in overseas camps, he was in the thickest of the fighting. Awarded Oroix de Guerre. For his meritorious behavior at the enzagement at Bois Brule, Col- onel Shelton received the croix de guerre. A peculiar coincidence is that he received his decoration at - the some time the 104 infantry were @ecorated by the French military authorities. Comes From Fighting Family Since coming home he has been assigned to jhe Fort Leavenwarth training school in Kansas. Colonel Shelton comes of fighting stock, his father being a former General in the U. 8. army. At the age of twelve his father formed a wnilitary company at school and was made captain of it. At the age of 39. when the Civil War broke out in 1860 he was offered by Governor Buckingham the command of the Second Regiment, then being formed in Hartford. He accepted the commission but.slater, because of plysicai disaoilities was unable to continue in command. It may also be interesting to note that the elder Shelton drafted the Connecticut National Guard bill that is now in the statute books, practical- 1y unchanged. BERGER CONCEDES WIN BY STAFFORD Unseated Socialist Congressman Toses to Republican—His Party Makes Big Gains Milwaukee, Nov. 3.—Vietor L.

Chicago, Nov. 3.=—Socialist party ational headquarters here this morn- g claimed 3,000,000 votes in the country, more than three times which the party got in 1916 and more than twice its record vote in the Debs cam- paign of 1912. The socialists also claimed the election of eight assem- men and one state senator in New York city. Hope was held at the na- tional headyuarters of the election to congress of Meyer London in New York. No word had come from the socialist strongholds in Oklahoma. “Socialist success in New York re- sults from the natura] growth of our propaganda in our stronghods and re- action to the expulsion of the New York assemblymen,” Otto Branstetter, mational socialist secretary said this morning.

McGovern said today that woman came to his rooms about 10 o'clock last night ner face covered with blood and badly beaten up. McGovern, when questioned by the police this morning said the woman had visited his home on former occa- sions and that she told him she had separated from her husband. When she came to his house last night she said according to McGovern: “They got me tonight all right.” He ecould not learn to whom she referred. The police are looking for John La- poskia, the husband of the woman to! see whether he can throw any light on the case. The medical examiner will conduct an autopsy teday. KING MENTIONED IN GOSSIP ON CABINET (Continued from First Page). Among many names whispered in connection with the post of secretary of state are those of Henry Cabot Lodge, Elihu Root, Philander C. Knox and Charles Evans Hughs. So is John T. King. Whether political history will re- peat itself in the selection of Will H, Hays, chairman of the republican national committee as postmaster gen- eral is another question with which the gossips have busied themselves. The name of John T. King, national coms mitteeman from Connecticut, also has been connected with the place in the same speculative way. Herbert Hoover the former food ad- ministrator, has been talked about in many quarters for many posts but the gossip has assigned him most fre- quently to the treasury or interior de- riments. There also has bewn a theory cir- culated that Senator Harding might prefer to put the re-organization of the war department in the hands of an army man intead of a civilian and might ask Major Leondrd Wood or General John J. Persning to take that portfolio. For secretary of agriculture, those who think they know are suggesting Henry Wallace of Iowa the publisher of farm periodicals Senator Arthur Cappe of Kansas and many others. Representative Esch is one of those suggested for the secretary of the commerce department. COMMITTEES CHOSEN FOR D. OF L DANCE.
