THE National Monument to the Pil.
prims was dedicated at Plymouth, Thurs
day of last week. The cost Of the monu.
ment has been about 100000. 1t Is OF
solid granite. The pedestal is forty.five
feet high, on the center OF which STANDS
the figure OF Faith, thirty.six feet high,
resting one foot on Plymouth Rock and
holding in her left hand an open Bible,
and with the uplifted right arm pointing
10 heaven. On each of the four project
ing buttresses of the pedestal are seated
figures of heroic size representing Moral
ity, Education, Freedom and Law; and
on the faces of the pedestal under the feet
of the figures are tablets representing the
embarkation at Delfhaven, the 81 gning OF
the compact in the cabin of the May
flower, the landing at Plymouth and the
first treaty with the Indians. The figure
of Faith, which cost $32 900, was the git
Of the late Oliver Ames; that of Educa-
ton was presented by Roland Mather, OF
Hartford, Conn; and that of Freedom
was given by The United States Govern
ment. The corner stone was laid jus,
thirty years ago. That the dedication oi
the monument should have been perform
ed with Masonic rites and ceremonies will
strike many people as particularly inap
propriate and out Of keeping with the
spirit Of the event to be celebrated. Hon
John d. Long, President of the Pilgrim
Society, presided The orator of the day
was Hon. VIM. c. p. Breckenridge o.
Kentucky, and the poet ]. B o'Reilley, o
the Boston Pilot. The only clergyman, j
is stated, invited to seat OF honor was
Unitarian. What principle of fines
guided in the arrangement for the cele
bration is not clear The oration was ar
propriate and excellent, though IN no re
spect remarkable. This, at least is true
the spirit of the Pilgrims,in one form AM
another, has vitality penetrated all on
American institutions. The real mon'
ment Of the Pilgrim Fathers is Americ

Editor Of The ENTERPRISE:
The custom of taking few days IRON
the busy cares of life and, with the little
ones and good big Saratoga trunk, re-
moving bag and baggage to some pretty
spot on the shore Of old Lake Erie, is be-
coming more in vogue each year. The
sharp, bracing air, the cool, invigorating
waters Of the lake, the iorgetfulness OF
the cares and worries Of life, are all con-
duciye to health, and one can hardly In
vest few days or weeks Of time TO better
advantage. The writer, having tried many
of the localii and resorts on the lake
shore, Is prepared to say word for beau
tiful Linnwood. II is reached by pleas
ant carriage drive Of about four hours
from Wellington, or in much less time by
rail via Elyria and Vermillion. The park
contains about 90 acres, 20 acres or more
Of which Is a grove Of magnificent oaks

grounds are under the management OF Mr.
G. r. Naegle who seems TO be the righ
man for the place Nothing within hi

attention for all the small details Of com
fort and convenience leave little TO be de

No one has any objections how many

this society sent agents into the field with
remonstrance against the Blair bill TO

is necessary to have civil laws enacted b
