IN oREELEY'S MEMORY,

a Monument TO Be Erected In City Hall
Park, New York.
A monument TO the memory of Horace
Greeley, the great editor, is to be erected in
New York city. 1t will stand in City Hall
park. just across the way from the magnif-
rent building of The Tribune, the newspaper
which was founded and built up by the genius
and labor of Horace Greeley.
Alexander Doyle, the celebrated American
sculptor, has the work in hand. He has just
completed the model. The monument will
consist of bronze statue in sitting posture
In the proportion of nine-foot standing
figure. In sculpture it would thus be classed
as heroic In the design model Greeley is
represented sitting in an easy and natural
position in a large leather covered arm chair
OF the old fashioned type. His attitude is as
careless and unstudied So that of cid Rip Van

The colored people who engaged in the re-
cent riot in Yamacraw were mostly idlers,
or Migrants, and the riot should be warn
ing to the authorities that unless the vagrant
laws are enforced, trouble may occur at any
time. There are many law-abiding and
Woodworking colored people in Savannah,
but there are also quite number who seem
TO have no other desire but to live without
working. They sponge upon people as long
as they can, and when they can do so no
longer they steal from both whites and
blacks They ought to be given taste o:
the law. If white tramp should walk into
Savannah, he would be arrested, but num-
bers Of black tramps may come in without
the fear or the probability Of arrest. Law
abiding colored people ought to assist in
identifying this worthless class, so that the
city might be relieved Of it, In that way a
burden would be lifted from both races.
