a few words in regard to the temperance
work in this city. Many OF the boys who
have signed the pledge we're amsng our
hardest drinkers and the temperance
christian people cannot be too careful in
their actions and dealings with them.
All of them are trying to better their
condition and it is our duty to extend
the hand in friendship and love to these
our brethren.

Niehaus, the. successful competitor, is a
young man, only so years old. Though born
In Cincinnati, he is of a German family. 1t
Will probably take a good while for O great
sculptor to be developed from the simon pure
Yankee blood. 1t can make wooden clocks
and sewing machines, but il is not artistic.
and its best friend cannot deny that.
The young man began life a poor boy. He
commenced to learn wood engraving when
10 years old. But marble chiseling had a
strange fascination for him. Even when try
ing to cut artistic designs in wood something
seemed always to whisper that there his field
and fortune lay. The longing to work in
stone at length became so strong in him that
ne left tho engraving trade, and entered that
OF stone cutting. He worked in a regular
marble factory, making tombstones, not to
put too fine a point upon it. Here ho soon
began to design monuments. Tia first that
attracted considerable notice was an ideal
design of a fireman, seven feet high. for an
interior town in his native state. Ohio
fostered her young sculptor, and has a right
to be proud of him. The success of Niehausi
marble fireman decided him to go to Europe
and study for a sculptor. He spent a mum.
Der CT years there, mostly in Munich.

PROJECTED STATUE OF E r. Z. E
The site of the monument is in a park. The
foundation is to be a broad elevated terrace
overlooking the city, the river and the valley.
An avenue of approach to the statue has been
designed which viii maxi the effect still more
imposing.
A massive pedestal supports the statue,
which is to be heroic size, on horseback. The
pedestal is of granite, with inlaid tablets of
colored marble. On each of two opposite sides
are two caryatides in granite, four in all.
They represent peace, justice, religion and
patriotism. Fame, war and charity are also
figured in bronze. At opposite sides of the
base are bas-reliefs of ssThe Departure" and
1.-THE Return"
Six years will be required to make the
statue and set it upon its pedestal. This will
require another trip to Europe on the part Of
Charles A.. Niehaus, the fortunate sculptor
who got the commission. 1t has not been long
since he returned from the old world with bis
completed statue of Garfield for Cincinnati.
Every time an American artist obtains an
order for any fine work in his native country
he must go abroad to make it. America has
not the facilities. For stone we have not the
skilled marble cutters, If indeed we have the
fine marbles. For bronzes we have not the
art foundries. americans with fine bronzes
to execute usually go to Munich to- the gov
eminent foundry there.
The history of this Lee monument is inter-
esting. Gen. Lee died in October, 1870.
Three days after his death some Richmond
ladies met at a private house and formed
an association to raise funds to erect
a memorial to him. The south was
very poor then, especially Virginia, and ill

RICHMOND, March 23.-America is rapidly
filing up with statues Of her great men. The
country being SO big it is a good thing we
have greslt men enough to go around The
late war produced a vast crop of them on
both sides of the line. There are major gem
erals and brigadier generals without end. IL
we shouldn't have my more wars for the
next 500 years we shall not nave more than
used up the great names the late war left at
our disposal for marble immortality.
The revered leader Of the lost cause himself
is at length to have u suitable monument
erected to his memory tits to be here in the
city of Richmond; very fittingly, too, for
here the chivalrous, melancholy soldier made
the last struggle for the south, knowing full
well that it would be the last, and that it
would be in vain, though fighting Like a
hero the while,
Richmond is q beautiful and interesting
city, and is magnifcently situated. A high
table land descends by a steep bluff to the
James river. As n approaches the river
and looks up or down the valley, a splendid
sweep of country bursts on the sight. Really
it is one among the grand natural views of
the country. At a suitable spot, where the
plateau is somewhat broken, the equestrian
statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee is to be placed.

CINCINNATI, March 24.-This conservative,

citizens. They are public spirited, toe, and
have done much for the place of their habita-
tion. The city has for years been cursed
with and governed by rings of local politi-
clans, first of one party, then the other. It
Is these that have given Cincinnati her bad
name for riots, election unpleasantnesses and
things. The city has within its borders at

people in the United States.
Some of her best citizens are the two gem
