FRANCES E. WILLARD STATUE.

II has not needed a great national cere-
mony as will attend the acceptance by
Congress of the Francis E. Willard statue
to bring forthsa demonstration of the I'M
paralleled appreciation in which the
women of this country feel for Miss Will
lard The ceremony will serve to accen-
tuate 1t, for the sentiment that guided
her eountrymen to place such memorial
in statuary Hall is one that will deepen
as time passes, until the tremendous sig
niieance will be fully recognized, That
Ilionis deemed Miss Wizards work
worthy of national commemoration teaches
that this wonderful woman so Influenced
public thought in her own state as to
make it subservient to the hunanties
and philanthropies Of her life work, and
In sympathy with this appreciation ex-
pressed in so tangible form by the citi-
zens of her native state, the people of
America are entirely in accord with this
fitting action on the part OF a state that
seeks thus to honor a great and noble
woman.
The exercises connected with the ac-
ceptance OF the statue by Congress will
be held ON February II, in the Senate at
3 p. m, and in the House at p. m.
The Senate exercises are in charge Of
Senator Shelby M. Cullom OF Illinois. who
will be the first speaker, followed by Sem
ators Albert j. Beverldge of Indiana, J.
p. Dolliver of Iowa and Albert ]. Hop
kins of Illinois. In the House Hon.
George E. Foss of Illinois has arrange
ments In charge, and Hon. Charles e.
Littlefield OF Maine and Hon. Henry S.
Boutell of Illinois will also make ad-
dresses.
The statue is of Carrara marble, little
more than life size, and represents Miss
Willard standing in an easy, graceful posi-
ton. The right arm is slightly extended,
the hand resting upon reading desk; the
left arm is at her side with few pages
Of manuscript in the hand. The pose Of
the head is very lifelike as Miss Willard
appeared when looking out upon an audi
ence. The face is strong and spiritual.
The chairman of the state board Of
commissions is Anna A. Gordon, and the
commission to execute the statue was
awarded to Helen Farmsworth Mears.
Helen Farnsworth Mears was born in
Oshkosh, Wis. While only a little child
she began to model in putty and coal
tar. Before the age of years she mod
eled an original head of Apollo which
was exhibited in the county fair. The
prize of $500 offered by the Milwaukee
Woman's club for the best work of art
by a Wisconsin woman that should be
exhibited at the Chicago exposition was
won by Miss Mears with a symbolic fig
ure OF Wisconsin which later was put in
marble and placed in the rotunda of the
capitol in Madison. Up to this point the
only professional instruction Miss Mears
had received was confined to about six
weeks at the Art institute in Chicago,
but she now came to New York. where
she studied for a year and a half under
Augustus st. Gaudens at the Art Stu
dents league before going abroad. Miss

student career was attended with the
same success that had characterized 1t
IN America. She carried off medals at the

TO compete with the men, and in 1897 she

ing long enough In Rome ard Florence

completion of her third year In Europe.
just as she was about returning home,
her departure was delayed by the request
from her old master, st. Gaudens, that
she return to Paris. where he had ar
rived, and assist him in his studio. Sew
eral years ago she executed a marble
bust of President G. s. Albee OF the State
Normal school, Oshkosh. President Albee
was widely known in educational circles
throughout the country, and the bust be-
ing an individual and characteristic piece
of work, has been highly praised. NJ.
st. Gaudens has said of Miss Mears'
work that it is as strong as a mans, and
has, in addition, a subtle, intangible quail
ity, exceedingly rare and spiritual
Miss Mears has now on hand q commits

THE board Of commissioners, states
Miss Gordon, had no hesitancy in .nyit-
ing Miss Mears to undertake the Frances
E. Willard statue after she submitted

her power to execute a portrait statue
that would satisfactorily portray III

The refined womaniness, the nobility and
strength of character, the sweetness and
simplicity and the intense yearning to
help humanity which characterized
Frances E. Willard as educator, ph.ian-
thropist and friend were marvelousiy
brought out in Miss Mears preliminary
model, which as a portrait excelled the
expectations Of the commissioners

CURIOUS ANIMALS.
Get Loose on a Ship and Fought
Among Themselves.

Mazatlan Cor. San Francisco Examiner.
Passengers and sailors on the steamer
Benito Juarez, which reached this port
today, tell of a terrible experience on
board while coasting down the Gulf OF
California. The Trevino circus, which has
been playing in all the important towns
OF Sonora and Snaloa was aboard
The ship was nearing Alfalfa, where the
circus expected to give an exhibition.
when a crazy deckhand, who had gone
down into the hold to see the animals,
opened the doors of several of the cages,
letting out three lions two tigers and
several small animals.
The lion tanner was the first to be at
tracted by the commotion, and calling to
the other attendants, endeavored to get
the lions back into their cage, but the
tigers bounced upon him and crushed his
skull.
The attendants who rushed to his as
sistance were no match for the wild
beas s, although the circus attaches
rained blow after blow on the heads of
the animals with clubs. Three of the men
were slightly wounded and compelled to
give up the fight.
The terrified passenger looked on from
above and the engineer pu, on all steam
and headed straight for Altata Thevino,
proprietor of the show. rescued the last
wounded attendant. who was taken out of
the hold when the struggle was aban-
doned
The matches were shut down and the
beasts engaged in a fierce fight in the
hold. In which two were killed. The sur
viving tiger was shot and lions and
smaller animals were subdue when port
was reached.
