THE LAFAYETTE MONUMENT.
Delay of the Artists in Paris i'm Finishing
the Bronze Figures.

Secretary Proctor recently received a letter
from Minister Reid at Paris announcing that
he was doing ali he could to hasten the work
on the Lafayette monument. which has been
seriously delayed. He added that he found
that French artists were more noted for
their careful work than for their promptness
in executing it, and that he could not tell when
the monument would be shipped.
WANTS THE DEDIC ATOM WHILE CONGRESS is HERE
The Secretary is anxious that the dedication
or unveiling of the statue should take place
during the session of Congress, in order that it
may be witnessed by as many of America S
statesmen as possible but ii does not now seem
likely that the work will be received in time
for the present session. according TO the
most reliable sources of Information both as
to the time of the coming of the monument
aud the adjourning OF Congress. Hence he is
planning to have the ceremonies occur in De-
cember as soon after the reconvening OF Con-
gress as possible, although there will be risk
of bad weather. The pedestal and mound are
quite completed and ready for the upper stones
and bronzes.

torious midnight intruder in Mrs. Evans

house, who has rooms in Mrs. Evans house
admitted him, and as he entered the yard be
noticed a window on the ground floor wide
open. with the shutters thrown back and
not closed, as stated. Two windows on the Sec
ond floor were also wide open. and it would
have been quite an easy matter for the man to
leave the house before Mr.. Kuhn was aroused.
The officer is certain that the cotton on the

strong odor OF chloroform pervaded the house
when he reached 1t.
Mr.. Kuhn states that he was awakened by

turn.
