IrOnmaster Will Erect a Statue to
Colonel Anderson.
Colonel James Anderson, Allegheny's
first ironmaster, will have a statue
erected in his honor, says a special dis
patch from Pittsburg to the New York
World. 1t was in 1853 that Colonel
Anderson built his mansion in Allie
gheny and placed 400 books in his libra
ry. He invited the working boys to
come and borrow books, which he loan
ed out in two weeks stretches Andrew
Carnegie was among the readers, and so
was Henry G. Phipps, his partner. Mr..
Carnegie recently gave Chester French,
the sculptor, an order to design a monu-
ment to cost $4,000 to Colone! Ander-
son.
This design has been placed in the
Allegheny library, and arrangements
will be made for the erection Of the
statue. 1t was this act Of Colonel An
derson, Mr.. Carnegie said, that made
him resolve If he should ever have sur
plus wealth to devote it to the extension
of free libraries.

FATHER OF ARBoR DAY.
School Day Stories of the Late Julius
Sterling Morton.

School Nay Stories or the Late Julius
Sterling Morton.
On the yellow page of cherished
album which belonged to little Ster-
ling Morton's mother appears the name
of the late Julius Sterling Morton
written with fingers trife uncertain
in the use of pen and ink; also julius
Sterling Morton inscribed in quite a
masterful manner by the ten-year-old
boy. - - sf9Ss
All the young people Of the United
States know about Arbor day and what
a delightful experience it is to have
the holiday, to speak pieces and plant
trees and put the flag up to wave over
the schoolhouse, and now am going
to tell some stories about the youth Of
the originator Of Arbor day, says Lou
Use r. Baker in the Washington News.
julius Sterling Morton was born on
April %, 1882, at Adams, Jefferson
county, N. Y, his father, julius Dewey
Morton, being twenty-four and his
mother, Emeline Sterling Morton, TWEEN
ty years Of age. Before the baby was
three years old the family removed to
Monroe and it was in that place the
greater part Of his boyhood was spent.
"He was the best little boy I ever
knew" says his cousin, "Aunt Betsy"
her kind face beaming with pleasure.
che obeyed his mother implicitly. Once
for some childish misdemeanor he was
hidden to sit in his little chair until
mi, ic-csio 4o ho
child's mother went from the room,
and the mischievous young Sterling's
uncles set their wits to work to make
their nephew disobey. They begged,
they coaxed, they offered brides, spoke
enthusiastically Of the wonderful things
to be seen out of doors and ran to the
window to watch the strange people
passing, but their efforts were all in
vain, as the dear little fellow, with
faraway look in his eyes and his lips
closed firmly, remained in his chair
and refused to be tempted"
Sterling's uncle, Joe, aged sixteen,
was especially fond Of amusing him
self at his small nephew's expense.
He entered the room one evening
when the boy was kneeling by his
mother repeating his nightly prayers
and, not noticing the devotional atti-
tude, made a teasing remark.
Whereupon Sterling, who was just
saying with great solemnity, II pray
thee" exclaimed, excuse me, Lord"
and, jumping up, seized the first thing
he could find, which happened to be
cat, and threw it forcibly at his uncle.
Then he knelt again and continued his
prayer as devoutly as if there had
been no interruption.
Three-year-old Sterling was always
adding Something original to the pray
ers his mother taught him and aston
ished her very much on one occasion
by closing the petition that his father,
absent on journey, might be brought
home safely with these words, en-
phadcally spoken: "And please give
him good coffee while he's gone"

Speculation as to Effects of ROOse-
XcltA NcNuest.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. S.-The two
principal features of the anthracite
coal strike, which claimed public at
tenton in the coal fields, Tuesday,
were: viii the miners yield to the
desire of the president of the United
States that they return to work and
investigate afterwards, and will the
mine operators be able to carry out
their promise to produce enough coal
to relieve the situation if given the
protection of the full military power
of the state? After most careful
inquiry among the district officers
(not including the district presidents
who are in Buffalo, and the rank and
file of mine workers, it was found
that sentiment is strongly against ac'
cepting the presidents proposition in
its present form. As to the other feat
ure OF the situation as it now exists
opinion is divided and will remain 50
until the real test comes.
The presidents message to Mr.
Mitchell became known here Tues
day afternoon, and it was earnestly
discussed by the striking miners and
citizens generally. 1t is positively
known to those who are close to the
officers of the union that President
Mitchell and his district presidents
have all along been opposed to the
men returning to work without some
concessions, but whether they are
still so inclined with the presidea I
appealing to them can not be Off
cially stated.

Cold-Blooded Murder.

Tom Porter a colored laborer, was
murdered in cold blood by VIII Lee,
also colored. In a restaurant at Little
Rock. The killing was witnessed by
q number Of negroes who we're in the
restaurant at the time. eating supper,
According to their story it was wholly
unprovoked, Porter not even knowing
Lee, and he did not speak word to
him before Lee stabbed him In the
neck with, supposedly, a pocket knife
Further inquiry developed the fact
that there was woman in the case,
though Porter was by no means to
blame. When Porter returned to the
restaurant from work he went to the
kitchen to wash his face. The girl
with whom Lee was enamored was In
the kitchen and Porter spoke to her
In a friendly way. This angered Lee,
who, without a word Of warning,
