STATUARY IN WASHINGTON.
:. ii. kaufmann Reads a Paper BE
fore the Historical Society

At the monthly meeting of the Columbia
Historical Society held last night at the
Shoreham Hotel, s. II. Kaufman read
an interesting and carefully prepared
paper upon the subject of Equestrian
Statuary in Washington" The first Il on
ument OF this kind every erected in this
country, Mr.. Kaufman said, was the
one Of King George III, which was set
up in New York City in 1770, and which
was torn down by the Revolutionary pa
triots six years later. For more th1n
seventy-fire years after that event there
was not an equestrian statue in this coun-
try. He then spoke of the Jackson statue
by Clark Mills which was unveiled on
January S, 1853 the anniversary OF the
Battle Of New Orleans. Much has been
said Mr.. Kaufman stated, regarding the
equilibrium Of this statue, but it has. he
asserted. a perfect poise. An interesting
point which Mr. Kaufman made was
that there are more equestrian statues in
Washington than in any city, Hot only in
this country, bat liz the world they
compared very I1.cTtbsy as works Of art
with those Of any other city. While that
of Frederick the Great, in Berlin, and
one or two others may be examples Of
better workmanship than some OF those In
Washington, as a whole. he stated, the
equestrian statues Of this city are su-
peTiOr
Mr.. Kaufman made mention of all the
various monuments of this kind in Wash
ington from the jackson statue, the tirst
erected TO that Of Hancock, the last I'M
yelled. In 1895. After the speaker had con-
Guided his paper 1t was commented upon
by several Of the members.
Resolutions adopted by the board of
managers upon the occasion Of the death
of DR. Samuel {. Busey, a member OF the
society. and a very active worker in Its
interests were read, and remarks were
made upon his life and service in the
community. The Rev DIR. Byron Sun
derland. his friend for many years, paid
a very high tribute TO the memory Of the
deceased physician. and Charles Moore,
the clerk to the Senate Committee on the
District OF Columbia, spoke of the efforts
DIR. Busey had put forward 10 secure legis-
lation TO promote a healthy condition of
the people OF the District ana TO secure
sanitary Improvement. lie spoke espe-
cially OF his labors In behalf Of filtration
OF Potomac water and Isolated hospitals
for contagious diseases. Brief remarks
were also made by other members OF the
society.

tempt TO destroy the smallpox detention
hospital in this city, made early this
morning. was successful. The building
was RACED to the ground by mob of men
armed with axes.
Just as the clock on the First Presby-
terrain Church ceased striking u o'clock.
a pistol shot was heard. and Immediately
afterward a mob numbering at least 800
men rushed upon the building, over
whelmed the guard OF policemen and tore
the structure to pieces
The crowd dispersed as rapidly as it
had gathered. No arrests were made. 1t
is said. however, that the policemen on
guard recognized several members OF the
mob and it is expected that arrests Will
follow
The officers of the board of health an
nounce their intention TO rebuild the de-
stroyed building, and have made a de-
mand for efficient protection.
Excitement runs high in the city, and
il is thought that any attempt on the part
ofrVihe health authorities to erect the
building again will meet with resistance.
Owing to the fact that the ground upon
which this building has been erected is
made ground, and contains large quaint
ties of garbage. many people will fight
the proposed reconstruction of the build
ing on account Of the danger to the pa
TENTS who will be placed in il.
1t is thought that there is another case
of smallpox I'm Orange, Aaron Clanton,
living on Matthews Street, having de-
velOped suspicious symptoms. He IL kept

SAW HER COFFIN MADE.
Mrs. Humphrey Watched the Work
on Her Deathbed.

NEW HAVEN. Conn. March lit
came today to the knowledge of Prof.
Bartlett, of the Yale Medical School,
who is the coroner's medical examiner in
this city, that Mrs. Marie Moore Hum
phret. who died on Saturday morning last
at her home, 81 West Street, had been
treated by mail for the last four years
by clairvoyants and spiritualists and that
even when she became critically i'll a
week ago her husband would not call in
a reputable physician.
The family is very well known in New
Haven and prominent people in different
parts of Connecticut are related to the
Humphreys. The healers who had been
ministering to Mrs. Humphreys had new
er seen the woman, the dOctoring being
done through the mails. The husband
told Prof. Bartlett that some time ago
he made up his mind that his wife could
not recover, but he still had great faith
in the mail healing process and continued
it to the last.
Three weeks ago, when he was sure
that her Illness would prove fatal. he
concluded to build three collins in the
house where he resided. one for the dy
ing woman, one for his mother-in-law,
who is 90 years old, and the third for
himself lie nau been carpenter, Dut
recently has been in the real estate bust
ness.
The first coffin made was for his wife
She, on her sick bed, watched the work
progressing on her coffin. Her husband
measured her body for a tit, and when
the coffin was finished, to make sure
there was no mistake in the measure
ments, he helped his wife to get into it
and she lay down in the casket Just as
e he would rpcIipe in death
Mrs Humphrey said to her husband
that 1t was "A little too snug. Her hus-
band thought otherwise. but it was de-
cided to enlarge 1t. Then the coffin was
placed in the bedroom near the bed on
which Mrs. Humphrey spent her last
days There WAS one regret in the hus-
bands mind which he explained today as
follows:
You see. l placed common chest han
dies on the coffin. They only cost 70
cents. Nice silver-plated handles would
have been much better, and | am sorry
now that | did not buy some. These chest
handles did not look quite right. but I will
not make the same mistake on my coffin.
That will be all right and so will
mothers.
Mrs Humphreys body was taken to
Fresh Pond, l.. l., today to be cremated.
Her husband has already placed in posi-
ton in his parlor an urn to contain his
wife's ashes.
Humphrey said this afternoon that his
aged mother-in-law was placed in her
coffin recently. and it was found to he
lust the right size for her His own
coffin. he said, just fitted him.

The vessel was 1oated Sunday, after

She was reloaded yesterday and started
last night for Norfolk where she is to
be locked and undergo whatever repairs
are necessary. II is the opinion. of naval
officers who have seen her that she is
not badly damaged. The bar on which
she stuck does not appear on the river
