on the wing, he is up again and over the
basket.
1t is a very pretty trick and always
evokes applause, for to the spectators it
seems certain that the jumper will sink
through a sea of scrambled yollxs and
fall, sticky, to the stage.
Higgins jumps over a bucket of
water, and in his flight drops to the
water, vets the soles of his shoes, and
then clears the obstacle without
splash. 1t is very pretty exhibition.
TO show his ability to control his body
while in the air, and to rise from the
surface of the water, the athlete fire.
Guently has the bucket only half full.
The difference between this jump and
the first is very marked. The egg jump
is made by lowering the toes while in
the air. The eggs are thus touched
very lightly, and the trick is done. In
the water jump, however, the whole
foot has to be placed squarely on the sur
face-a far more difficult matter than
merely tipping with the toe.
One of his turns which is greatly adj
mired is that known as the bell jump.
An ordinary call bell is placed on top
OF chair, which is on top of table.
Higgins clears the obstacle and rings
the bell in the fight. This is done by
planting a foot on the mob of the bell
as he jumps over it. In all his trick per-
formances he keeps both feet together,
so that if one should miss the object, be
it egg, water or bell, the other may
reach it. The Englishman thinks it
nothing at all to vault over two horses,
each 16 hands high, or to jump from
stone match box as large as an ordinary
brick, and clear chair nine feet away.

state has been settled since the time of
her pioneer days she does not show it,
for she never visits nor makes inquiries
of others. She has her own little world
and lives in it.
When the writer of this called on her
few weeks ago she had just returned
from a few hours hunting trip, and
served for the meal some delicious teal
ducks which a short time before had
been feeding in the river close by. The
meal finished and pipes lighted (she
always smokes a long Dutch pipe) con-
versation was engaged in. She was
communicative this cold autumn after
noon, and in a dreamy monotone she
told the story of her life, which has
comedy, pathos and tragedy inter
woven in it.
About 1S2O-she did not remember
! the exact date-she and her husband
married but few months, left the lit
tie settlement called Detroit, and with
packs on their backs started on foot to
penetrate the northern pine forests.
They plodded on for many days, at
last reaching the Saginaw river, then
broad stream, ON the banks of which
were few Indians. The red men pad
| died them across the stream, and after
staying with them q few days they
again started north.
How many days they Travelled she
does not know, but the leaves had be-
gun to turn when they reached the
present site OF the old log house. Here
they decided to stay, and, the two work.
ing together all day and sleeping on
the ground at night, put up the rude log
| shanty and they moved in.
The arrival of the two sons increased
the number of the family to four, and
nothing eventful happened for five
years. Their only neighbors were
some poor Indians, who lived on the
banks of the river in rude wigwams
and one day one of these found the body
| of her husband in the trail along the
river bank, with large wild cat NOR
| tally wounded, but still alive, within {
| few feet of it. His throat had beer
| clawed to shreds. She buried him
alone, and seven years later her oldes
son went fishing never to return, as his
body was washed upon the bank few
miles from the house week later. She
J buried him alongside the larger grave
and she and the younger son lived on
When he became man he went away
and he, too, failed to come back.
She is confident he will come before

Since that time she has lived alone
She has never wanted for food, anC
says she has had no trouble in support

this she wants to pass away, following
the footsteps of her husband and son.

Of New York. In the treatment of his
subject Mr.. Niebaus has made an almost
complete departure from the lines that
conventionality has made familiar. dis
Moses is strictly the leader and the law
giver of the Israelites, and in producing
his conception of the character he has
adhered closely to the ancient Hebraic
traditions. The effort has been made
to show him chiefly as the man of
power. Those who have carefully eX-
amined the new statue have been par
ticularly struck by the evidence of the
sculptor's close acquaintance with MS
subject as it is shown in the work.
There was ruggedness and grandeur
about the character of Moses that was
not possessed by the other leaders of
the Hebrew people. Y
The figure is shown in the act of de-
livering the new law to his followers.
He has just returned from Mount
Sinai, where he received the tablet of
stone from the hands of God, and there
is suggestion of the ecstacy of this re-
cent communication with the Most
High in the face of the lawgiver. The
pose of the figure is one of grandeur,
dignity and power. Anatomically it is
perfect. The right foot, which is eX-
tended, rests upon a block of stone,
forming the support for the craven tab.
let, which is held in the hollow of the
right arm, the lower end resting on the
hip. With the left hand Moses reaches
back to draw forward the robe that
rests on his shoulders. 1t is in the face,
however, that the artist has given full
play to his ideals, and the strength of
them are such as one might imagine to
be those of the spokesman of Jehovah.
