PURCHASE FOR ADELAIDE PAINTING OF GALLIPOLI LONDON, June 30. The original painting of the Gallipoli hero, “The Man with the Donkey,” of which thousands of reproductions have been made, has been acquired by the Agent-General for South Australia, Mr. McCann, on behalf of his Government. The artist is Horace Moore-Jones, of the New Zealand sappers.
