Duluth police and murder is the crime
of which they believe him guilty.
Last fall Miller and Lewis Smith, Il
young man twenty-one years of age,
went to work about four miles from
Duluth on some road work. Shortly
afterwar1 Smith was missed. He had
boarded with Il family named Grant.

mail. and. finally, for his clothes, say
ing he had been sent for them by
Smith, who intended to move into Du-
luth and work. Letters from Smiths
people arrived at Grants asking after
the young man. A search was made
for him. Miller claimed he was in
Duluth for a time, and then said later
that he had gone to Superior. Sus-
piciOnS were aroused and it was de
termined to make a search as soon as
the snow left the ground. This was
done. and in the vicinity of where they
worked n small patch Of burned brush
was found and in II some bones. These
were brought to Duluth last night and
physicians say they are human bones.

WHY HouDoN WAITED.
The story is Told In the sculptor's Statue
of Washington.

The story IOlu III tiic ''N"iP'"A ''s''~.N
of Washington.
One of the most valuable and in
teresting collections of colonial rel
les in existence is in the state library
at Richmond.
The greatest treasure IN the col
lection is the marble statue of Wash
ington, by Houdon. 1t possesses the
merit of being the only effigy that
remains of Washington that was
actually taken from life. The statue
conveys very distinct idea OF
Washington, different in many re
spects. however, from the familiar
portraits which for the most part
are copies Of the same original In
1851 five years before the adoption
of the federal constitution, the gen
etal assembly of Virginia ordered
this statue
When the statue was provided for.
Thomas jefferson happened to be in
Paris, and he engaged Houdon as
the sculptor, because. as he after
ward said, He is, without a rival
ship, the first statuary of his age, as
the proof of which he received on
ders from every country for things
intended to be capital. Houdon re-
ceived l, 600 English guineas, trifle
over $1,000. Besides, the expense
of the journey from France to Vir-
giuia was paid, and his life was in
sured during his absence from
France at the cost of the general
assembly. Houdon left Paris in
August, 1875. In October he reached
Mount Vernon. He treated with
great consideration by Washington
until the formality of his first meet
ing wore away.
Houdon made known no desire to
get to work at the statue, and it is
believed that Washington hospi-
tally grew trifle cold before the
sculptor really set about the work
for which he had come over the sea-
One morning while the family, of
which Houdon had become tempo
rarily a member, was seated at
breakfast, a message was brought to
Washington, informing him that a
pair of carriage horses had been
brought for his inspection, he hav
ing made known his desire to pur-
chase a team Washington left the
table presently and went outside
Houdon followed. After moments
close inspection Washington asked
the price of the animals.
lone thousand dollars, was the
reply
lone thousand dollars!' said
Washington, in amazement
"Ah, l ave him! 1 ave him.
broke in Houdon gleefully. He hur-
ried away and began work on the
statue industriously, and so it is
supposed that the expression pre-
served on the statue at Richmond is
the one that appeared on the face of
Washington when he learned Of
what he considered an exorbitant
price for the span of horses. With
the knowledge Of this little incident
in seeing the statue, it is not hard
to believe that Houdon had him
in truth, and kept him, for there is
an expression of surprise on the face
and the lips are compressed. 1t
seems that Houdon, after he got the
inspiration he had been waiting for,
pursued the work faithfully, gain
ing Washington 5 interest and good
