The more we see him LZIRA A through his wives, the clearer his life and times become. BY COLIN W. SARGENT VY TROUTMAN; I ); ss abelaisian, bawdy, witty, robust, wild, lusty, protean, lecherous, luscious, the kind of man Ernest Hemingway wished he could be, Waldo Peirce (1884-1970) is Maine’s satyr prince of the art world. He devoured life. So whatever happened to his wives? ICE (LIBRARY OF CONGRE It’s well known Waldo was pals with fellow Harvard classmate John Reed (played by War- R ren Beatty in Reds); ran with the bulls at Pamplona with Hemingway; appeared as a charac- ter in The Sun Also Rises; and painted Hemingway across Europe and Key West, one canvas gracing the October 18, 1937, cover of Time magazine. But it’s not so well known that Waldo’s four wives were doorways for his perceptions. Most survey stories about the strapping six-foot, two-inch Bangor native barely get to his wives, or FROM LEFT: DOROTHY leave them out entirely. Let’s instead begin with them. S E P T E M B E R 2 0 1 8 5 1 THE ARTS DOOR NO. I THE WILD CHILD Dark-haired, dark-eyed Dorothy Rice (1889-1960) was 18 when “Girl on Mo- tor Cycle Laughs at Speedy Police” rocked Manhattan’s society pages in 1907. The heiress was “charged with driving motor- cycles on Broadway at 35 mph… Bicycle Policeman Merritt was at Eighty-fifth and Broadway when Miss Rice and her party [of six millionaire teenagers] flashed by him, ‘burning up the asphalt…’ He pursued, but at Ninetieth street was still trailing by a block. Bicycle Policemen Walsh joined him, but the speeding sextette gave them their gasoline odor and dust… Miss Rice made them hustle for 12 blocks.” Daddy, I want a brand new car. Who was Dorothy Rice, really? Daddy left a $40M fortune when he died, according to the New York Times.

Landscape in Maine, 1820-1970. It was during the first few years of Maine's statehood that American artists turned for the first time to landscape painting. Prior to that time, the primary form of painting in this country had been portraiture. When landscape appeared at all in a painting it was as the background of a portrait, or very occasionally, as the subject of an overmantel painting. Almost simultaneously with the artists' interest in landscape as a suitable sub- ject for a painting, they discovered Maine and its varied landscape. Since then, many of the finest American artists have lived in Maine where they have produced some of their most expressive works.

  • Prologue - Preparing the Way for the Columbia Cars, and the Formation of the Electric Vehicle Company
    Prologue - Preparing the way for the Columbia cars, and the formation of the Electric Vehicle Company Electrobat Morris and Salom Electrobat The Electrobat was the first successful electric automobile to ever be created. Mechanical engineer Henry G. Morris and chemist Pedro G. Salom from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania were responsible for this marvel of engineering. Pedro J. Salom was the president of the Electrical Lead Reduction Company which was incorporated in 1899. This company produced products supporting the manufacturing of early batteries. Salom was an electrochemical engineer. With solid backgrounds in battery streetcars, they decided to team up and make battery road vehicles. The Electrobat was the result of their combined efforts. It was patented on August 31, 1894 and it entered production in 1895. It was a slow, heavy vehicle, built like a smaller version of a battery streetcar. The vehicle was indeed a very heavy carriage, with steel tires to support the immense weight caused from the then new Lead Acid Battery. The two men then founded the Morris and Salom Electric Wagon and Carriage Company – the first electric car company in the United States of America. The first test ride for this first electric car was on Broad Street. A special permit was required from City Hall, and a policeman had to travel in front if the EV, clearing any horse carriages to prevent the animals to panic. With continuous research and development, the later versions of the Electrobat were lighter, faster and less ungainly. They had pneumatic tires and steered by their rear wheels. The newer versions ran on two 1.5-horsepower (1.1 kW) motors that worked for 25 miles (40 km) per charge at 20 mph (32 km/h).
