Colossal St0tssary.

Colossal iStatmary.
There has recently been completed at
the marble works of William Struthers &
Son, the largest group of statuary ever ex-
ecuted in Philadelphia. 1t is cut in light
granite, and is to surmount the center of
the Ninth street front of the new United
States court house and post-ofice. The
group was modelled by Mr.. French, ris-
ing sculptor, who is best known by his fig
ure of the Minute Man at Concord. It
consists of three colossal figures, typical of
the supremacy of law. The central figure,
female of heroic type, clad in a coat of
mail, with boldly flowing draperies, raises
her barred arms above her head, holding aloft
the tablet of the law. 1t is a figure of
great dignity, admirably modelled. She is
supported by two sitting figures of Peace
and War, the former represented by a
female of the same classic type, with a
cornucopia and sheaf of grain, and the
latter by an armed man. The central
figure is sixteen feet in height from the
feet to the appraised hands. The granite
has been cut, of course, in several blocks,
which now lie in the shop like fragments
of some huge antique, but the plaster
model, on scale of about two-thirds that
of the completed work, shows a we'll
balanced group that cannot fail of an i'm
posing effect when it shall be raised to its
destined position. A somewhat similar
group, by the same sculptor, has lately
been completed for the new postofice at
st. Louis, where workmen from the Stru-
theirs establishment have now gone to put
it in place.

THE NATIONAL MINT.

Interesting Features of the Forthcoming
Report of Director BMrcItarGl.
Mr.. Burchard, director of the mint, has
completed his annual report and it will be
submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury
at once. The statistical Information,
showing the movements of corn and the
monetary condition of the world will be
found to be very valuable and interesting.
1t appears that the coinage has been, es-
pecially at the mints, in the smaller de-
nominations, and it is found that the
absorption of gold coin in circulation has
notably increased, while that held by the
treasury and the bank has remained
about stationary. This result is what the
director predicted would follow from the
adoption of his policy of coming five and
ten dollar gold pieces, instead of double
eagles. He maintained the people would
take up and hoard the gold if it was coined
in eagles and half eagles, while if in the
the larger denomination it would remain
in the vaults of the banks, and if there
should be demand for bullion abroad it
would leave the country in bulk; while, on
the other hand, if it was held in small sums
by the people there would be some resist
ance to the speedy drainage of the country
of all its bullion. Whether on account of
the small coins being struck or not, it ap-
pears that the people have taken up an in
creased amount of GOLD.
It appears that the laws drafted by Di-
rector Burchard, passed by congress last
session, providing for the exchange of
stamped gold barsfor coin att the assay of
fee, has worked well and Affected consid-
able saving in the expense of coinage. Un-
der this law when it is desired to ship gold
the bullion is given to the exporter in more
desirable form for his purpose. being in a
bar upon which the weight and fneness was
stamped. In this way the cost of coming
the gold is saved to the government as
well as being a greater convenience to the
party having the foreign coin to exchange.
The gold production of the mines appears
to have fallen off somewhat, while the sill
yer mines have put out more than during
the year previous. The silver increase was
owing to the opening of new mines in
Arizona, chiefly, and in portions of Colo
RADIO, while the reported falling off at
Leadville seems to have been overestimated
and was made up by the increased work
ing of low grade ores at the smelters: The
report covers two periods, calculations
being made for the fiscal year ending
June 80 last and for the period ending
October.

IN AFFLICTED FAMILY.

And a Good Samaritan who Acted the
Christian Part.
A burial took place few days since in
Oakland cemetery, and although the funer-
al was that of child of humble parents,
yet the circumstances attending it are
worthy of place in our columns as IL
Illustrating the kindness of one of our old
citizens. He is Catholic, but SO Catholic
in his feelings and sentiments that no des-
titute person, whatever be his religion,
ever appealed to him or his good wife and
went away empty handed. Differences in
religious views can never quench the gen.
erous, noble fires which always burn in the
Irish heart.
The circumstances are briefly as follows:
A man and his wife arrived in our city
with the dead body of child which died
shortly before their arrival. Homeless,
penniless and friendless, the father start
ed out in search of a Presbyterian minister
to perform the last sad rites. All the
ministers of that denomination were alb
sent from the city, in attendance upon the
meeting of synod. He had no claim upon
any other denomination, and heart broken,
bowed down with grief. and discouraged,
he was at a loss what to do under such
distressing circumstances. just at this
time he was met by our Catholic friend. to
whom he related all the facts, and with
that noble kindness characteristic OF
the man, he told the poor
friendless one to be of good cheer, that he
would see that suitable arrangements were
made for the burial of his little child. A
coffin, hearse, carriage, and the pastor of
the German Methodist church were secured
and the burial took place, the greater part
of the expense having been borne by our
good samaritans.
In the CONSCIOUSNESS of having served a
fellow man in his distress, he feels that he
has his reward, but, '1inasmuch as ye have
done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, ye have done 1t unto me-"

ALL the planets save Uranus appear in
the evening sky during the month of Octo-
Der. Of these, however. Mercury and
Mars will not be. visible on account of
their unfavorable position. Mercury sets
in the first part of October soon after G
O'Clock. and Mars few minutes later,
while Neptune, rising rather more than an
hour after other two have set, is invisible
on account of its distance. The most brill
liant object in the west for the month will
be the planet Venus, which sets al 7:15,
while in the east Jupiter and Saturn will
be of increasing interest as the month ad-
vances. On the first of the month Jupiter
rises at $40, and on the 31st two hours Ia
ter. Saturn rises at 7:45 at the beginning
of the month, and at the end at 5:45'
Uranus as morning star, rises at 4:26 and
sets at 4:45 III the afternoon. Jupiter now

ton Gemini, and Saturn in Taurus, south
west of the Pleiades and Hyades.

rabbi, lately delivered sermon in his syn
agogue in New York on ''The folly of man
blaming God for evils which are the conse-
auence of his own acts, he being free
agent" He said: 81 take for my text the
first clause of the thirty-frst verse of the
first chapter of Genesis, sAnd God saw ev-
erything that he had made, and, behold, it
was very good Now there are among us
those who, when the lightning breaks forth
destroying life and property. when IN
mountainous regions the huge avalanche
topples and overwhelms the populous vii
lage, when the earthquake demolishes
grand cities, destroying in second the
result of centuries of human industry
when the never ceasing turmoil of the
restless ocean breaks asunder the emigrant
steamer with its human freight and the
wild cry of men and women in their death
agony ascends from sea to sky, ask, How
can the God of the universe be merciful
God that he should suffer these things to
be?' The question is q natural one and
has been propounded in every age and by
every nation, but the fact that man is a
