The Artists Theme.
The designer OF the great bronze horse
intended to represent General Sherman's
dislike for ostentatiOus hOrsemanship
and contemplated a mount capable Of
hard service and good speed. but quiet
and subdued. Mr.. Jensen has more than
realized this. The horsc sands very
picture Of reserve strength and good
blood. HIS body firms and strong, the
head bent forward. his nostrils dilated
with excitement. but nevertheless a fig
ure Of quietude The mount is admir-
ably proportioned. and as artists express
it, lit hangs well together"
The Sherman manifest in Mr.. Jansen S
work is a man Of pronounced strength.
Of great tenacity OF opinion and Of UNI
yielding purpose. and these quantities are
delineated in Mr.. Jensen's model, even
when viewed from the Executive Man

SAVED BY HER SISTER.

Mias Jennie NJ. Lee Was Drugged With

Hallucinations and Was About to be Sent
to n Sanitarium " hen Her Sister Inter-
vened.
From the little town OF Lowville, on the
line of the Rome, Watertown and Ogdens-
burg railroad, in Lewis county, New York,
comes a remarkable story which the most
careful investigation has shown to be liter
ally true. 1t is narrative of deep human
interest, in which an estimable young lady,
suffering from disease and almost wrecked
by powerful drugs, was kept from santa
rum and her life and reason saved Dy her
sisters faith.
The Young lady is Miss Jennie NJ. Lee, of
Park avenue, Lowville. n. T., and her story
is given as she related 1t to reporter at nef

THE GREAT YACHT BUILDER.

Nat Herreshotf, the successor OF Bur-
CESS in designing cup defenders, is a
picturesque figure. A grim, reserved,
laconic and almost rude man; he knows
how to sail yachts as well as to lay
down their lines; and he was at the
helm of the Vigilant in her races with
the first Valkyrie. He was born IN 1S4S
near Bristol. the present scene OF his la
bors. He was educated at the MaSsachu-
setts Institute of Technology and began
life as mechanical engineer IN the Cor
liss Engine Works at Providence. His
nautical tastes, already highly devel-
oped, led him to join his brother,
John B.. in building launches and small
steamers at Bristol. His first fame
was made in turning out such steam
hiers as the Stiletto, Henrietta, and
Now Then. Nevertheless, as Tar BACK
as 1872 he produced the sloop Shadow,
the only craft to defeat the celebrated
Scotch cutter Madge when she came
here in 1881. When he brought out the
Gloriana, in 1891, he drew the atten-
ton of the men interested in cup de-
tense, and to him they went for help
when Dunraven challenged for the cup.
IL is hIlON VI i'tso ~
abled him to solve some formidable
problems in lightness OF construction.
Nat Herreshoff preserves some mem,
ories of Burgess. He wears pointed
and bristling red beard, which pro
trudes from under the rim of a gray
slouched hat. He wears a gray sack
suit of clothes. and his general appear
ance is that OF a successful rural horse
dealer come to town to see the sights.
But he turns no Somersaults when his
winners cross the line. Grim and ST.
lent, he simply studies the hollow
masts and spars, and seems to be cal
culating how much more sail-spread he
can put on the next defender without
causing her long, thin steel tubes to
collapse A designer, an engineer. a
builder, sailor, he is a good deal like
Napoleon, "a sceptered hermit, wrap
ped in the solitude of his own origi-
nality." But he is not the famous
blind designer of whom we so often
hear. He can see as far to the wind
ward as any one else. His brother
John is blind, but Nathaniers eyes are
wide open.-W. J. Henderson in Out

EDUCATING THE SOUTH.

Hon. w. w. StetSon, State Superin-
tendent of schools has just returned
home from an extended trip through
the south. In speaking of his expert
ences he said:
"The opportunities l have had to
study the school question in Virginia,
North Carolina and Tennessee. have
made it clear to me that in certain ways
the southern people are making great
strides in educational matters.
''The most impressive phase of the
educational movement in the south is
the interest which the leading men take
in school matters. Members of con-
gress, governors, judges of the supreme
court and prominent citizens generally,
are reading, studying and talking about
the improvement of the common school.
They are not content with saying a
&c cd school is good thing, but they
discuss in detail the enlargement and
improvement of school grounds, the
decorating and beautlfying of school
rooms, the studies that should be
taught, the methods that should be
used, and give the reasons for employ
ing trained teachers.
A large majority of the white people
met in the south are outspoken
for equal educational privileges for
both races. A small fraction of the
whites in all of the States visited think
that education will not improve the
negro. !s7, 49, 40 .,,.oo e. roos oooro,o

the better class of negroes and a large
number of the wealthy men and women
in the north. This majority is insist
ing on equal school privileges for all.
The leaders among the negroes have
set forsthemselves the task of giving, at
least, a common school education to all
negro children. Those who have not
made study of the matter little real
ize the large sums that have been sent
to the south by our northern people for
the purpose Of educating the negro. y
