A work of art now on exhibit in one Of the display windows of the J. A. Black jewelry store on Congress street, Tucson, says the Star, which is draw ing more than the casual glance of the passerby and causing much favorable comment, is the small plaster of paris cast of '' Arizona waiting for statehood, "
 The work is that of one of Tucson : longtime dentists, Dr. Odermatt, and has before been described in these col umns.

Yet her wrists are manacled and the shield rests at her feet.

 At each of the four corners of the base stands male figure as represent ative of the four chief industries of the territory ranching, lumber ing and farming.
