Statue,

Chicago, Dec. 20.-The model of Miss Ada
Rehan's Symmetrical form on which the Mon
tana silver statute Is to be constructed, has
been completed by Sculptor e. H. Parks and
was exhibited to-day to members Of the
press at his studio. Standing eight feet in
height and posing on a globe is the majestic
figure. TT the base Of the globe Is the
archetype of a Mountain eagle, the original
of which was killed near Bozeman, Galatin
county, Mont, and sent to the sculptor to
pattern from. A sort of goddess crown COW
ers the head Of the figure, which is inclosed
in a draped garment to the knees. In her
right hand is a sword Of justice and In the
left a pair of scales are held upward. In
one side of the scales will be silver coin
and in the other will be gold. The most at
~tractive and prettiest part Of the figure are
the curves Of the outlines of supposed move
ment of the back, limbs and feet as she
steps toward the spectator. The figure Is
supposed to be In motion, with the left
foot backward, and it makes, the pose a
most majestic one: This statue Of justice
will be OF solid silver-that is, the frame
work Of the tigure-and will cost $65,OOO,
Mr.. Parks was warmly congratulated by
all who saw the model. The pose is stately
and di~gni.ied-an ideal statue of Justice.
Those Interested in the Montana exhibit
are especially gratified ut the progress OF
the work. A reception will be held at the
studio tomorrow, 2U invitations to which
have been sent out.

REAL USE OF LINEN.
No Bacterial So Valuable in the
Household


Household.
The world. or this part of it at least,
is full Of housekeepers who think that
there Is no material for sheets and pill
low cases comparable to linen. They
don't always have it, to be sure, because
1t is expensive; but they always covet
1t, and finger the shining breadths low
ingly and wonder if the time
will ever come when ali these
things shall be added unto
them. But the truth aboht linen
is that it isn't the ideal dressing for beds
at all. 1t is cold and slippery. and in
sures a sensitive person the dream of
sleeping on an iceberg, which does well
enough for an occasional experience,
like seasickneSs. but which pals on too
frequent repetition. Besides that, it
wrinkles and tumbleS, in spite of it's
heavier body. much more than cotton
does, giving bed after one nights use
a most slovenly and uninviting appear
ance.
Nobody recommends linen for body
wear. Its firm texture and hard surface
make ii wholly non-abSorbent; it allows
the body to become chilled by refusing
the PRECIPITATION, and so has been known
to bring on serious illness. For outside
wear in summer, linen may be,tolerated
as clothing. but nowhere else.
Where, however. it is at its uSefulleSt
and best is in household uses. For the
table service, for the toilet and for
minor ornamental details, il is simply
invaluable-its smoothness of texture,
its brilllancy, which laundering even
increases, its exquisite freshness makes
it the one fabric bit to drape the dining
table, and to use in the toilet, while its
suitability for needlework decoration
makes it admirable for all kinds of
fancy work. And here it is rightfully
used, but to wear next the skin and
sleep ln-no.

Shenandoah.

Shenandoah, written by Bronson
Howard and Owne by Al Haymen,
which has received more free advertis-
Ing from the patriotism of the people
than any other play ever did, will be
the attraction tomorrow night at the
Metropolitan. The play has been so
much written about that il seems need
less to say more. AS play in its con-
structlon, its dialogues, its incisive pre-
sentatlon of acute war situations. it
stands decidedly ahead of all plays and
all other native works. 1t has a remark
able sense of realism about it without
at any time panderiug 10 the desire for
bloodshed. 1t has Il charming love vein
Which is uniquely carried through war

Sented which did away with clap-trap

tStlc presentation of the situation to
awaken the sensations of the audience.
Its great recommendation is that it

FEAR THE PEOPLE.
A Grant for Collars and Cuffs Is
Very Doubtful.

AS the time for the marriage of the
Duke of Clarence and the Pricess
Victoria of Teck draws nearer, the
number of feelers thrown out. evidently
emanating from high quarters, for
the purpose of testing public feel
ing in regard to the voting of a
grant from the public treasury for the
young couple increases. 1t is apparent
that the cabinet consider the PROPOSE
ton of such grant necessary. and are
only in doubt as to the best time and
manner of springing it upon parliament
and the people.
They do not wish to bring the idea up
too soon, preferring to educate public
sentiment gradually up to the proper
point, if they can manage to do so, be-
fore making any demand. The Liberals
are making dead set against the idea
of any grant whatever.
The Pail Mall Gazette is the most
vehement of the organs which oppose
the scheme of donation to the royal
couple. 1t calls the proposal ridicu-
lous one, and declares that while it
would be great pity if a discordant
note should disturb the joyful occasion
OF the marriage, yet the wedding bells
would surely jangle out of tune if the
Tories should seriously propose such
measure of folly, and commit such an
incredible breach of faith as would be
involved in asking for another grant for
the descendants of royalty, after the
understanding arrived at as condition
precedent to the Battenburg grant.

Lady Brooke Retires to Let
the Latest Scandal Blow
Over.

BERLIN, Jan. 9.-The reichstag next
week will eebate the bill for the repreS-
sion of drunkenness. The bundesrath
has approved the measure as it was
originated by Emperor William, only
modifying the severity of the pen
alties to be imposed upon Offend
ing public house keepers. The min
listers, it is known, consider the
proposals with disfavor, and the men,
bers of the bundeSrath expressed doubt
as to their practical value. However.
the emperor having set his heart upon
trying the effect upon drinking of legis-
latlve restrictions has obtained from
them hesitating assent.
The fate of the measure in the rechs-
tag is doubtful. The Conservatives
and National Liberalists will support
the bill, while the Freisinnige and So
cialist parties will oppose it, mainly
because its provisions will invest
the police authorities with excep-
tonal powers of interference in
the private life of citizens.
The clause of tn measure
which has caused the most widespread
objection, empowers the officials to pros
ecute all persons denounced to them as
habitual drunkards and to cause them
to be imprisoned until they shall have
obtained medical certificate stating
that they have been cured of the liquor
habit. Their property also may be
seized and applied to the support of
their families and of themselves during
their imprisonment.
A Vital Defect.
The bill fails so entirely to define
what proof will be sufficient to warrant
the arrest and sequeStration of person
denouced as being habitual drunkard
as to enable malicious or prejudiced
prosecutors free scope. The measure,
II 1t becomes law, will inev-
itably give rise to host of
malicious informers and blackmailers,
who will continually busy themselves in
laying traps for the keepers of places of
public resort and who will always stand
in readiness to blast the regulations of
private individuals. Prosecutions under
the bill will follow when two wit
nesses Of the otfense shall danounce
the culprit, and should the measure
ever come into active operation in
this city there will be mighty swarm
of convictions. The center party is dl-
vided upon the question of the wisdom
of the measure, the majority leaning
towards the bill as moral legislation ap-
proved by the Vatican. The result de-
ponds upon the Centrists, and, there
fore. the bill is likely to pass.
