as admirable as it is suitable
Mr.. H. X. Brush Brown of New York. of
whom more than ordinary accomplish
ment Is expected, presents an elaborate
device consisting of a semi-circular colon
made. composed of columns and arches,
divided by an imposing arched gateway
before which his equestrian statue, show
Ing Grant squarely seated with eyes to the
front, sinks to complete insignifieance.
Mr.. Charles Pike and his brother are the
sculptor and architect of a model made
much after the same pattern. The colon
made is, however, composed solely of col
umns, the monument is more elevated, and
allegorical groups may be seen in front of
1t and at the eXtremities of the peristyle.
This plan, indeed. seems to have been a
popular one for it is repeated several
times, with but slight variation, the chief
change being made in the relative proper
ton of the statue and the peristyle.
Mr.. Cyrus Cobb, who was himself a SOL
der, has inscribed on all four corners of
his model the motto, Let us have Peace"
and has followed the only other popular
pattern-that which is somewhat on the
order of the Lafayette statue.

Atteio Piccirilli also presents a dignified

kindly loaned to fill vacancy. As no pic

CASE CONTINUED.
George Deane Charged With Unlawful
w Shooting Birds.

Sportsmen are interested in the case Of
George Deane, who was arrested yesterday
by Policeman Collins and Deputy Game
Warden Bailey. and a number of them
were on hand at the Police Court this
morning to hear the trial Mr.. Deane, who
had been released On $42 collateral. appear
ed for trial. The collateral had been taken
because it was believed the law provided a
penalty of 81 for each bird found IN the
defendants possession. It IS now alleged
that S Is the amount provided by law. and
rather than forfeit this amount Mr.. Deane
preferred to stand trial. The prosecuting
Witnesses had twenty-three birds in court
this morning to be used as evidence, nine
teen skylarks and four robins. 1t is charg-
ed that he killed the birds on the marsh
near the Benning race track. Assistant
City Solicitor Pugh heard the statements
OF the witnesses, and continued the case
until tomorrow morning. The game law
provides that certain birds, including rob-
ms. shall not be killed at any time save for
scientific purposes. and then only upon
permit issued by the superintendent Of po-
lice. Tie killing of insectivorous birds Is
prohibited, and it Is under this provision of
the law that the charge of killing skylarks
was brought.

HEARING COMES TO A CLOSE.
Court Directs Jury to Return Verdict
for Defendant.

In the case OF Brown against the COM
nercial Fire Insurance Company. which has
been on trial In Circuit Court No. 1. before
Chief Justice Bingham. for the last eight
days. the court yesterday directed the jury
to return q verdict In favor Of the defend
ant The suit was brought by the plaintln
as trustee under a deed OF trust to recover
81 800 upon q policy OF insurance. as dam
ages to the stock OF goods insured and
covered by the deed of trust. From the
evidence IT appeared that In September.
1893. Parker and Walker. the owners OF a
shoe store insured their stock. and within
a month thereafter gave deed of trust to
the plaintiff. About one month thereafter
the stock was totally destroyed. and after
the fire the policy was presented by Brown
to the company. which Endorsed the policy.
making the loss payable TO him as trustee
Subsequently the company refused to pay
and suit was instituted The company
claimed that the policy was made null and
void because the property had been incum-
kered by q deed Of trust without notes to
II. in violation of the provisions OF the
policy; that the policy being under seal, the
~ aintiH could not maintain the action in
hts own name: that the declaration ited
treated the plaintiff as the insured under
the policy, whereas the proof showed that
ne was not. but only the appointee or re-
ceiver OF the fund. which gave him no cause
OF action to recover in his OWN name. ard
also because others were interested In the
recovery and were not parties plaintiff
On behalf OF the plaintiff 1t was con-
tended that the company had waived the
provisions Of the policy by agreeing to pay
the loss to plaintiff: and such ag eemen>
amounted to an assignment Of the policy

A LEADING FEATURE.
Transactions in Lanston Monotyps
Stock in Local Exchange.

Yesterday and today Lanston Monotype
stock was the leading feature on the Wash
ington stock exchange. judging from the
volume of the sales. About $500 shares
were dealt in yesterday. and somewhat
more than that number were bought and
sold today. Wednesday the stock sold for
11ls. yesterday it advanced to 13A and to-
day the highest point reached was 14ss. The
activity in this stock. which is source of
surprise to a good many brokers, Is ex-
planned Variously. Some claim that the
much discussed project of merging Of the
typesetting companies is among the pos
sibiIties, while others are of the opinion
that the business of the company has I'M
proved. There are also those who look
upon the movement as speculative.

Biggest Crime of the Kind Ever Known
In this Regi0n-The Post Office
Also Looted.

Wednesday night burglars entered
the offices of the Enoree Factory at
Enoree, blew open the safe and got
away with about $4,000 in money and
valuable papers besides.
They also stole about 5000 from the
post office.
The factory safe was practically de-
stroyed with dynamite. The Company
offered $500 reward for the burglars.
Various rumors were afleat as to the
amount of money stolen but the sum
named is about right.
So far efforts to catch the thieves
have been unsuccessful, but the police
everywhere are on the lookout. 1t is
believed that the burglars were not
amateurs.
