Elders of Fremont, Nebraska

A YOUXC, srri.PTOR s«e wished to withhold the permit. With this success, Avard wanted to go to the Bronx Park and mould the lioiib thai his brother had tried. Here he attracted the attention of the keepers, who secured the sculptors' studio for him to work in. Any animal he wanted to mould would be brought him in a cage. Noted animal sculptors worked in the studio with him, gave assistance, and criticized his work. The famous animal anatomist, Mr. King, became interested in him. Other admirers watched him and ;

newspaper articles praised him and showed his work. A special scholarship in the New York Student's Art League was secured for him. At thirteen years of age he exhibited in the National Academy of Design, and at fourteen he has again exhibited. He is the youngest artist who ever exhibited in this exclusive exhibition. This year he has secured another scholarship, and is improving steadily. Mr. Dallin says of his buffalo that he has no criticism to offer on it. The distinction that has already come to him is the envy of many older artists. Tiffany & Company have had some of his work cast in bronze, in order to have the exclusive sale. Gorman & Company, the next largest dealers in fine bronze in the country, have had casts made from some of his other work.

From the sale of these bronzes the boy obtains a royalty which is helping him a little, but not enough to furnish him with tinmoney he requires, and he is really in need of financial assistance. He is steady, sincere, earnest, and much in love with his religion. — Edward H. Anderson. B. D. Clyde, Jr., writing from Fremont, Nebraska, December 1, says that the work is progressing nicely in that district.
