THE MONUMENT FUND.

the Expenditures on What Has Been Done.
President L~angsdale. of the Soldiers
Monument Commission. completed his re-
port yesterday. showing the actual ex-
penditures of the monument fund since
June %. 1887. The Incidental expenses nave
been S2S.676.43, and the structural cost $780,
ALL making q total of SIS, 1I7.54.
Among the details were the commission
ers' per diem and other expenses beginning
June %, 1881. as follows: ID. G. McCollum,

The commissioner were asked to give a
statement of the probable amount of work
that will be required to complete the monu-
ment. This. MI. Langsdale says, is not pos
posals. 1T would be difficult" he
says, Ito give q correct estimate
of the amount required to complete the
monument so as TO include ali the details
and accessories shown in the original de-
sign. and the astragal representing the
army, added since the design was adopted.
approximately, 1t may be given at $170,0 900.
Omitting the fountains and cascades would
reduce this sum by about $40. 0O0. But it Is
especially important that the great bronze
groups Of War and Peace the Army
astragal. and the elevator for which no
provision has been made. be retained. and
work npon them prosecuted without delay.
These are estimated to cost S104. 900 in ex-
cess of the fund now in the hands of the
commission. The plan of construction is
such that the fountains and cascades, aud
minor lower statuary can be added when
ever it may be the pleasure of the General
Assembly to provide for them" The com
missioners will hold another meeting next
Monday night.

An Improbable Cut.

The action of the Jacksonville South
eastern IN reducing the bridge tolls at
East st. Louis. and thereby effectipg q cut
in freight rates of from 8 to 5 cents per one
hundred pounds. is regarded as anything
but a wise nov The Chicago & Alton
promptly met the reduction. so that the
Jacksonville Southeastern. instead of prof.
itipg by its action. has placed itself in the
position of needlessly sacrificing q portion
of its revenue. General Manager Chap
pell, of the Alton, says there is no danger
of the cut extending to Chicago. The re.
port that the remission of bridge tolls is
the result of q fight between the two
bridge companies at East st. Louis is be-
lieyed to be untrue.

In Memoriam.

Edward Crews was born in Person county, North Carolina, on the 10th day of September, A. D., 1894. When he was about II years old, he moved with parents to the State of Tennessee, where he grew to man. hood and received common school education. By trade he was wag- wright. On the 23rd day of De- cember, A. D. 1926, he was married to Miss Sarah L. Bentley, and set tied at Castiian Springs, Sumner county, Tennessee, where he lived and worked at his trade for g years. About 1860, he moved to Arkansas and settled in that part of Hampstead, winch is now in Nevada county. He had ten children, four sons and six daughters. All of the sons he gave to the service of the South in the late war between the States. Three of them died in the service and one survived the Confed- eracy. In politics he was always a Democrat, and loved his country and her institutions. He was man of strict integrity of character, strong in his feelings and warm in his friend ships. He was faithful to his con victions, true to his friends and de- voted to his family. He was be- liever in the Christian religion, and for many years before his death was a member of the church. He died at the home of his oldest daughter, Mrs. Adeline E. Bundy, Hampstead county, Arkansas, June I, 1890 and we confidently believe he went

Tn Memoriam.

Little Ludia Evalena, daughter of A. II. and Birtie B. Rodgers, was born Sept 2lst, 1888, and died Oct. 10th, 1891, aged years and 19 days. She suffered days with membrane ous croup, then her sweet spirit took
 it's flight to cline where it could breathe the pure air of Heaven. Lit- tie Lena, as we called her, was a sweet and affectionate child; we loved her tenderly-she was the flower of our home. Thus another precious flower has been transplant ed on that bright and beautiful shore, to bloom, to fade no more now and forever safe from sin and sorrow. Dear parents, while with aching hearts you look upon the va cant chair of your darling little girl, and miss her prattling and winning ways, let your hearts say, the Lords will be done, for to us comes the blessed assurance that We shall see little Lena again-she is not gone forever, but gone where the smiles of God will kiss away tears and sor- row from the human soul. We shall meet her agaln. ArNT CORA.
