Vinnie's Stor, of the Statue.

Winnie Ream Hoxie says to the
Chicago Tribune: A short time after
[ came from Europe Admiral Farra-
gut died. A friend came to my studio
one day, and suggested that it would
be grand thing for me to make q
statue of Farragut. I Immediately
grasped the idea, and commenced it.
I made a bust of life-size. [ had
only seen him once, but had several
photographs. About year after I
had begun my work, Congress apro-
priated $4,000 for a statne Of Farra
gut. After the appropriation was
made, it was decided that the commit
tee on public buildings and grounds
should select the artisF. When the
committee met they failed to agree
There were twenty-five competitors
for the work. Then committee was
appointed by Congress, composed of
the general of the Army, the Scores
tary OF the Navy, and the widow of
Admiral F'arragut, to select the artist.
| then prepared a model seven feet
high, and had it carried to the capio
tol, where all models were placed on
exhibition Mrs. Farragut came en-,
and, after examining the other mod
ell, came to ..my studio. Upon see-
ing my model she exclaimed: "That

with a very large and select gathering of in
vited guests The guests included many of
our most prominent citizens, ali the teach

white flowers. Here were assembled the
intimate friends who arranged for the cere-
monies, and when the hour arrived, a vol
