The stanch and powerful little craft was gayly bedecked with flags and bunting for the ceremony and her initial dip into the ele- ment in which she will hereafter live was | all that her well wishers could hope for. At 7:27 p. m. the blocks were knocked from under her and -the red hulk sld slowly into the waters of the bay and floated far out in the stream, while the whistles of the tugs Deflance and Rellef, sister boats of the fleet, tooted a long and shrill welcome which was joined in by the neighboring shipping and the whis tles of the Risdon Works. 0 Miss Adelaide M. Samuels fell the honor of christening the new tug. She stood at the bow with a bottle of cham- pagne wreathed in white and yellow rib- bons and as the craft struck the water she broke the bottle over the bow with such good will that nothing but the rib- bons remained in her hand. Only a few people were on board the tug when she was launched. but a large crowd of in- vited guests watched the dip from ' the whart. After the Dauntless had floated far cut into the stream she was picked up by the tug Alert and towed to the dock where she will be fitted with her powerful en gines. In the meantime many of thcse who had been instrumental in framing the new boat and a large number | guests gathered in the messroom of the Risdon Works and enjoyed a luncheon, after which a number of short speeches were made. The guests who witnesced the launching were conveyed to the works from the Clay-street wharf in the tugs Relief and Deflance and returned to the city in the same manner. The new tug has a length over all of 128 feet, a breadth of 24 feet 6 Inches and a draught of 12 feet 9 inches. She is sup- plied with the newest ofl-burning appar- atus and her tanks carry sufficient fuel for twenty days’ continuous voyaging. In addition to her many other innovations she is supplied with a dynamo for the generation of her own electric lights. ‘When fitted with her machinery she will be the most powerful and up-to-date tug on the Pacific Coast. @ il @ CLEARED.

The original, which hangs in the Chicago Art Institute, shows the fowls life size, and the remarkable real- ism of the painting is faithfully preserv ed in every detail in The Call's Art Supplement. The artist’s remarkable skill is shown not only in the accurate delineation of the fowls and the lifelike rendering of their sleck plumagec, but also in the painting of the land- scape background and the accessories. The artist raises his own models and keeps them on a farm which he owns at Coutich, near Antwerp. Many of them, like their master, are winners of medals and prizes, for they are not of common stock, and Maes is one of the leading poultry fanciers of Belgium. His pictures show clearly his great familiarity with his subjects. Each hen and chick shows distinct individuality. They differ not only in form and color, but their attitudes and even their expressions differ. Note the air of watchful responsibility of the mother of the chicks, the alertness of the brown hen, and the pride of the cock. Edgar Remy Maes was born at Puers, near Antwerp, in 1849. His father was a black= smith, and at the age of 12 Maes became his assistant. It was a visit to an uncle, who was a portrait painter in Brussels, that first gave him the idea of becoming an artist. He was about 15 years of age when he began to paint. For several years he made copies in the museums to earn a livelihood. Finally a dealer, who saw his ability, agreed to pay him 30 francs a week to paint pictures of animals for the trade. This gave the young artist an opportunity to attend the night classes of the Antwerp Art Academy, and he so well applied himself that in four years he had won three prizes. It was his ambition to become a figure painter, but his reputation had been launched and connoisseurs came so rapidly for paintings of animals that he found no time for figure painting. He was engaged for considerable periods to work exclusively for a London dealer, a Paris dealer, Mr. W son, United States Consul at Brussels, and, final- ly, by Dhuyvetter, the Antwerp dealer, for whom he has painted nearly 300 pictures since 1875.
