THE LOGAN STATUE, LINCOLN PARE, CHICAGO.
ner feels confident that he will be able
to have 1000 uniformed men in camp
Mrs. John A. Logan will, Of course,
occupy the post of honor at the tomb on
the lake front in the beautiful Lincoln
park. With her will be John A. Logan,
Jr; Major Tucker and Mrs Tucker,
the latter being General Logan daugh-
ter
The site of the monument was select
ed by Mrs Logan some years ago. She
at first chose a spot on the ground later
occupied by the Art building Of the
Worlds fair, but as its use for the de-
signed purpose was made impossible by
the retention of the building as the
Field museum the jackson park loca-
tion was substituted.
The first work Of the commission
was the selection Of sculptor to whom
the important order could be safely in
trusted. With the aim of obtaining an
artist of known ability whose name
would be warrant of the efficiency of
the work Augustus st. Gaudens was
chosen. Mr.. st. Gaudens accepted the
great task and asked four years for the
completion of the first model. He set
about the work in his characteristic,
thoroughgoing manner.
First he collected from all sources
photographs and portraits of General
Logan and descriptions of his appear
ance. As it was to be an equestrian
statue the special characteristics of
Logan's favorite charger became mat
ter of much moment, and not until he
had closely inspected a large black stall
lion on the estate of John A. Logan, Jr.
an animal said to bear q striking re-
semblance to the generals warhorse-
did he seem satisfied with his data on
this point.
But it is the pose and movement"
and stirring realism of this enduring
vision of soldier and steed that mark
the work as that of master. Indeed,
! st. Gaudens has certainly eXcelled him
self in this great product Of his wonder
full art, and the long process full of the
! delays Of reconstruction, has not been
waste of time, but well earned perfec-
! tiOn.
The scene which the great artist had
in his mind was one which occurred at
the moment of Logan's most trying ex-
perienCe. 1t was at the battle of At
lanta. The armies of the Cumberland
and the Tennessee, closing in upon this
city, were checked by the fierce fighting
of the Confederates. General McPher-
son had been completely flankod and
while riding down presumably clear
road to rejoip his command had come
full upon a Confederate skirmish line
and fallen mOrtally wounded. Logan
was now forced into the leadership.
His crucial moment had come, Would
it find him ready and able, or would his
inefficiency bring down upon him per
petual reproach!
The answer to the question is what
st. Gaudens has so strikingly portrayed
History has told the story of the bis
black horse and his gallant rider, of the
stern, unyielding warrior who, with the
torn battlehag held aloft, dashed alonl
the wavering lines through shot ant
shell and by his splendid exhibition O
GOODNESS and courage rallied his men Il
action through mere shame of contrast
1t was a deathless deed which nov
lives in bronze, glorious coadjutor o
memory and imagination.

Mrs. Camden became possessed of the
bulk of his fortune. Relatives of Judge
Camden, alleging undue influence on
the part of Mrs. Camden, began a con-
test over the will, but the case was
finally compromised. However, there
has remained feeling of hostility in
the breasts Of the Camden relatives to-
ward the wealthy widow, and it to
this that she attributes her recent diff
culties with them.
In Washington society the governors s
bride has long been a well known fig
ure, and her popularity at Clarksburg,
where she has invariably spent her
summers in her elegant home, is infe-
rior to none in that lively little city.
Governor Atkinson's prospects for
United States senatorial honors open up
a roseate vista of further social success
es in Washington for the new mistress
Of his household.

BUNCH OF HEIRESSES.
THIRTEEN PRETTY HAWAIIAN GIRLS
WITH A MILLION APIECE.

One of the All Fong Sisters Has an Amer
loan Husband, Another VIII Soon Fol-
low Suit, but the Rest Await Annexa-
tion.
Miss Helen All Fong Of Hawaii is
soon to be married to William A. Hen
shell, a prominent young lawyer of San
Francisco.
There are many interesting things
that can be said about Miss All Fong.
In the first place she is one Of a dozen.
Eleven other little All Fong maidens
dwell coyly in the bowery home of old
Ah Fong in farawuy Kanaka land. All
of them are pretty and all of them are
rich, consequently it would be hard to
imagine more deleCtable little misses
than these and still harder to guess why
they are allowed to remain unmarried
while so many eligible American bach
elors inhabit the earth.
Possibly a reason for this is to be
found in the fact of the coyness of these
girls of the midsummer seas. They are
very coy. This is easily accounted for.
Their father All Fong, though extreme
ly shrewd and we'll up to date in all
matters pertaining to the opium market
or the tendency of sugar, is Of a retir-
ing disposition and not given to social
gayetiCs Their mother was the daugh-
ter Of a native Sandwich Islander, q
Kanaka woman, and a Portuguese mer-
chant, whose large wealth was inherit
ed by Mrs All Fong. This Mrs. All
Fong was also Of a quiet, stay at home
disposition, so the shyncss Of the little
All Fongs is easily seen to be an inher-
tied quality. 1t is understood, however,
that, with all their pretty hesitancy,
they have very decided views on annex
alton and are willing to accede graceful
ly to proper terms proposed by proper
American persOnagCs.
Thus far only two of the dainty dam
sells have Capitulated and come into the
American camp, These are the ex-Miss

A GALLANT GOVERNOR.
West virginias Chief Executive and Hi
Indicted Bride,

West Virginias Chief Executive and His
Indicted Bride.
Governor Atkinson of West Virginia
is not to be interrupted when he goes
a-wooing, even by grand jury, and
the fact that his fiancee happened to
rest under indictment on a charge Of
forgery did not in his estimation con-
stitute a sufficient cause for postpone
ment of his wedding. His newly made
bride, who was Mrs. Myra H. Camden,
was a charming widow, a native Of
Clarksburg, W. Va, and woman
who, besides her personal attractive
ness, possesses rare abilities as a social
leader.
This is her third matrimonial ven-
ture. She was born Miss Myra Horner
and was for many years reigning
belle in her native town. Her first hus
band was DR.. Edward Davis, promi-
nent physician of Clarksburg. A few
years after his death she married Judge
G. D. Camden, one of the wealthiest
landowners in West Virginia.
Six years later Judge Camden died
and left his widow a fortune estimated
at $500, 200. Not long after his death
will was found by the terms of which

PARIS, June ia cyclone struck
Asneris at the time when fair was in

at least twenty persons were killed and
ninety injured.
The whole garrison at Courtsevoie,
about five miles northwest of Paris,
went at a double quick pace to Asneris
after the disaster, where the scene is
one of widespread and appalling DESC
lation. Every BOOTH van and merry-go-
round in the fair was smashed.
In the distance the cyclone presented
the appearance of cloud of smoke go
ing from southwest to northeast. Roofs
were seen flying in the air like kites.
Ambulances and forty carriages are
now searching for the dead and
wounded. The people are completely
dazed and women and children can be
seen sitting weeping upon the doorsteps.
Considerable damage was also done at
