man has shade the best of it. | know
Eliicott well. He is a mighty fine fel.
low, but what he does not know
about horses would fill several volumes,
and the remark will apply to about 80
per cent of scuptors and painters. Even
the great Munkaczy, the battle scene
painter. is a colossal failure in this re-
spect.
The equestrian statues now in prog
ress of erection to the memories of
Sherman and Logan are not completed
sufficiently to form an expression of
opinion in regard to them. | shall be
greatly surprised and pleased if they are
above the average. The finest piece of
statuary art in the United States is the
equestrian statue of Washington in the
state house square at Richmond. 1t is
the Joint work of Rogers and Story.
The horse, however, is of the rearing
kind, and this detracts from the tout
ensemble of the work. The impress sive-
ness of the monument is increased by
the placing of statues of heroic size of
Patrick Henry, George Mason. author of
tilc II X MIA Din VI ItlSutS ItWle. lHt
Indian fighter; Nelson. prominent in
Revolutionary days; Jefferson and Chief
Justice Marshall on pedestals on the
base of the monument. The work is of
such magnitude that this arrangement
adds to instead of detracts from the
work.
The equestrian statue dedicated to
Lee in Richmond has met with a good
deal of criticism. | have not seen it,
and therefore am not able to Judge of
its excellence. He is mounted on his
favorite war horse, Traveller. As Lee
was not only an exceeding handsome
man, both in face and figure, and withal
a man of great dignity, which COM
ported with his heroic size and elegant
manners,>it would be poor artist, in
deed, who could not reproduce him in
bronze. AS to the horse, the artist had
a photograph to work by.

equestrian statue of Mcclellan on the
plaza of the city hall in Philadelphia.

DIR POPULATION IN 1890.

Since the announcement that federal
tensus would be taken next year there
has naturally grown keen curiosity re-
karding the population of the country.
|The census Office has estimated that the
humber will probably be 72,000,0 900, or
bbout 100000 more than was recorded
by the census of 1900. This estimate is
based on the impression that the average
yearly gain of 100000 found between
hs70 and 1890 has not been maintained
particularly because of the Industrial
paralysis that existed from 1893 to 1896,
which was the shadow of the campaign
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1899-07-21
that resulted in the election of President

that resulted in the election of President
Mckinley.
On the other hand, the actuary of the
treasury has made the estimate that on
the first of last June there were '43S9,-
600 inhabitants of the country. If this
is correct, then without doubt the CEN
sus of 1900 will register more than
seventy-five millions.
This treasury estimate appears to be
nearer accuracy. In the first place, the
average annual gain in population was
larger between 1880 and 1890 than be-
tween 1850 and 1870.
In the latter period it was 100000,
while in the former 1t was 1,2lO,000.
There is no good reason to assume that
the 1SS0-lS90 average is farther away
from the average of the decade that will
close next year than the 1SlO-1SSO
average. Yet, nquestionably, it would
be too much to claim that the average
since 1890 has been 1,240,000. Stricter
immigration laws have lately been en-
forced but, at the same time, it is worth
considering that their enforcement has
affected rather the less numerous decrepit
and vicious than the more numerous
sound and industrious. Then, again,
the general health of the country has
been improving steadily, thanks to the
state and city boards of health; nor
should it be overlooked that the in
dubiable incieas of the white popula-
ton has augmented the rate of increase
of the total population, of which 1t is the
heavily predominant element.
Even assuming that there has been
an average yearly decrease of, say,
10000, since 1890, the average would
still remain 100000. Ten years,
therefore, would show a gain of l2,'
100000, which, added to the 81 ,622, 25C
registered in 1890, would give the
country at least 1922, $50 inhabitants in
1900. The signs indicate that this esti.
mate is conservative.-Bosto Herald.
