Kindly Manner-Not Prepared for
Such Extended Work-coI. Joachim
Returns a Day Ahead of Madison
Company.

West Point. KY, Oct. 10.-The man
euvers at Camp Young closed yester-
day with a review of all the troops in
camp by Major General Bates. The
alignment during the review was ex.
cellent, the Michigan brigade making
perhaps the best showing of the ma
tional guard regiments, with Indiana a
close second.
The gardsmen were paid off yester-
day and will commence breaking camp
today. Michigan will go first, WiscOn-
sin following.
The umpires met at the assembly
tent yesterday and discussed the man.
euvers in which the state troops par
ticipated. 1t was the general opinion
that the maneuvers had been of great
benefit to the troops, but that most of
them were unprepared for such ex-
tended work. They freely criticized
the state troops but in a kindly man.
ner. Col. Wagner expressed satisfac-
ton with the conduct of the state
troops and believes the maneuvers
benefited them greatly.

Louisiana purchase monument, design
ed by Emanuel L. Masqueray.
1t is hard to conceive greater posi-
bilities for magnificence and monument
tai effect than those which lie. in the
hands of the artists who have been in
trusted with the designing of the three
great cascades, which, extending for
over two city blocks in length. pour
their waters into the grand basin, from
which they are distributed to all the
Iagoons throughout the park. The CEN
trail cascade, surrounded by twelve
massive groups, will be the work of H.
a. MacNeil and is to be known. as the
"Fountain of Liberty" The two side
cascades are being executed by Isidore
Konti.
The side cascades represent the At
lantic and Pacific oceans, which were
united by the Louisiana purchase, and
Mr.. Konti has modelled to portray 1.-The
Spirit of the Pacific" a flying female
figure with an albatross. The bird
floating in the air, calm and passive,
typifies the peaceful character of the
Pacific. The Atlantic is represented
by q vigorous youth standing in the
clouds with arm appraised and at his
feet a soaring eagle. The three cas-
cades, taken as a whole, give express
sion to the sway of liberty from the
Atlantic to the Pacific.

on figure of Bienville for the exposi-
ton, says the problem of pants" is
very annoying to the sculptor, especial
ly to one who does much portrait work.
1.-THE modern male costume is anything
but picturesque, and when it comes to
reproducing it in sculpture we are up
against it," said the artist. "This fig
ure l am working on has no such diff
culties, for the costume is that Of the
early part of the eighteenth century
and is very picturesque. Bienville was

Louis XIV. became governor of Lou
