sbeahan. the Sculptor. and Captain
John Hampden ChambcrIaync.

u. B. Sheahan, the New York sculptor,
has recently been paraded in the public
prints as having at one time fought duel
with Captain John Hampdcn Chamber
layne. the late senior editor OF the State
newspaper. This is not true, and the facts
in .he case are as folows Several years
ago Mr.. Sheahan, among other sculptOrs,
came to Richmond, bringing with him a
model for the eque' tEian statue OF General
r. +. Lee. His model, along with others,
was placed on exhibition in the Capitol,
and while there the lamented editor of the
State, after viewing If, severely criticised
il in his paper. Mr.. Sheahan brought
with him to Richmond letters OF intro
duction to Mr.. j. V. Reddy, among others,
and to the Office OF this gentleman he
repaired rs soon as he read the criticism in
the State, and prepared a card in answer to
It. Mr.. Rcddy and Sheaban then set out
for the State office for the purpose OF
having the card published, but on their
way Captain Chamberayne was encounter
ed, and he was introduced by Mr.. Reddy
to Mr.. Sheahan. The latter gentleman was
so fayorably impressed with Captain Cham
berlayne, his bearing and general intelli-
gence, that he failed to say word about
the card he had intended to publish in his
own defence, and the matter was dropped.
So far from having a duel. Sheahan and
Captain Chamberlayne were on the best
terms.
While Sheahan was here he made bust
Of Malone and Captain John S. Wise and
a medallion relieve OF Mr.. Reddy, and when
he went away left good impression be-
hind.
These facts have been recalled by reason
OF the late talk in the newspapers about
a duel between Mr.. Sheahan and Mr.. John
A. Knox, of the TeIaS SiftingS.

MUSIC.HALL PLAN.
The Citizens Asked TO Give the No.
zart Association the Lot al the
Northwest Corner Of Main
and Sixth Streets.

Some weeks ago the Mozart Association
appointed a committee, of which Mr. X.
III. Whitlock Is chairman, with ample
powers to prosecute their purpose OF
building music hall suited to the needs
and prospects OF the city OF Richmond
This committee have considered many
plans and projects, and carefully weighed
the feasibility OF each, and their conclu-
sion Is that the lot upon which the present
hall stands is not deep enough for a hall
with spacious stage and comfortable dress
lng-rOoms.
Their idea is that new site should be
gotten. and casting around for q good lot
their eyes fell upon the quarter square at
the northwest corner OF Main and Sixth
streets, occupied in part by Rogers & Mil
ler's marbie-yard. It belongs to the Ma
sons, who will sell IL for about Sl6,500, and
the committee have secured ninety-days'
option on II. The hope Is that at no dis
tant day there win be fine hotel erected
on the Allan lot (southeast corner OF Main
and Fifth, and music hall on the Masons'
lot would be in just the place it ought to
be. 1t is near the top Of the hill; 1t Is on
great thoroughfare it is accessible from
all parts Of the city by street-csrs, which
pass Immediately in front OF it. and the
depth and frontage OF the lot would allow
of the erection OF a magnificent structure.
To attain their purpose the committee
ask that the pubic-spirited and liberal peo-
pie OF Richmond g,ue them the sl6,5O0
needed to buy this lot.
With the lot theirs, the'whOle sum need
ed by the Association for the building can
be obtained on a mortgage OF the lot and
building.
What the community therefore has to do
to secure the hall is to give the Association
the lot. For a city Of the business and
population Of Richmond to raise S16,500
ought not to be great matter 1t would
certainly not be were we little more ac-
custOmed to giving to public enterprises
than we are. In that respect we have
much to learn, and with this hall there is
opportunity for good beginning.
The hall will serve many useful purposes
besides being used by the Mozart Associa-
ton. 1t is. indeed, thing much needed
here. 1t can be haG without delay il the COM
munity will give the Association the money
for the lot. Already.the committeeman,
in private way, have secured over $4,000,
and when they make their public canvass
the whole sum ought TO be, and they think
will be, obtained without any great trouble.
1t may be necessary to say that the Mo-
zart Association is not a money-making
concern. 1t spends, for the benefit OF its
patrons and the fifty or sixty strangers
weekly introduced at its muSiCdleS, all that
it makes. Its object is the cultivation Of
the musical taste of the community and
the establishment OF place Of amusement
where, once week, at least, the people
may, for small sum, gather and be enter
tained in an uneXceptional manner.
