OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Justice for the South in Payment War
g.. Claims-Roosevel Wants
Power. -.

Special Cor. Herald and News.
Washington. Nov. 21.-Prospects
are bright for the passage, during the
approaching session Of Congress, Of
the omnibus claims bill carrying large
amounts for the payment Of war
claims in every State in the South.
The justice Of these claims is not de-
MED. Many of them have been pass
cd upon by the Court Of Claims and
the amount due from the United
States adjudicated by that tribunal.
The failure to pass the bill at the last
session was due to the efforts of the
Republican leaders in Congress to
keep down the total Of appropriations
rs much as possible for effect i'll the
Congressional campaign. They piled
4 up extravagant appropriations for
other objects but refused to authorize
the payment Of the just debts Of the
government. The Southern men III
Congress will also make determined
effort to secure the passage, during
the approaching session, Of the bill
providing for the refunding Of the
millions Of dollars illegally collected
in the Southern States during the war
through the cotton tax. This money
is in the Treasury but it can not be
restored to those from whom it was
wrongfully collected or their heirs
without special authority from Con-
gress. The passage Of this bill will
be an act Of tardy justice to the
South
President Roosevelt is determined
to continue his efforts to secure a
further concentration Of power in the
Federal Executive at the expense of
Congress and the States. His
message to Congress at the beginning
of the session will contain several re-
concentrations along tih slime. His
proposition to have the Congress i'm
pose a tax on lcgacies and Inherit
anccs is direct proposal to invade
the field Of State taxation. There Is
no question as to the power Of Con-
grcss to impose an inheritance tax.
but therefore this form Of taxation
has been regarded as one to be re-

The Statue to Hamnton.

The Statue to Hampton.
The sculptor's idea as brought out
in the figure is that Of commander
as he is being cheered by his men.
General Hampton is represented with
hat off and sword at salute, riding
along i'll front of his army, while the
soldiers express their confidence and
love for their leader. The whole atti-
tude, as well as the face, is expressive
of pride, the shoulders thrown back,
the chest out and the eyes afirc. The
prancing steed typifies the same con-
ception. General Hampton was a su-
perb horseman and always rode a good
steed, and old soldiers say the artist
has done both man and horse justice.
The whole statue, man and horse, is
Is feet SIP inches high, being one
and one-half times life size. IF stand
ing, the mans figure would be 8 1-2
feet.
The pedestal is 13 1-2 feet high,
making the total height Of the monu-
mcnt 20 feet.
The pedestal is of two parts, upper
and lower. The upper part is of gray
variegated granite from the Vosgs
mountains of France, highly polished.
It rests on two steps Of Winnsboro
granite, surrounded by curving
mound covered with sod. The whole
is surrounded by curbing Of Winns-
boro granite and at each angle is an
ornamental railing Of bronze, special
ly designated and made in Paris for
this monument.
On The front Of the pedestal is this
inscription:
"Erccted by the State Of South
| Carolina and Her Citizens.'
On the north:
Commander Of Hampton $ Legion.
"Licutcnant General c. S. A.'
On the east:
"Born March Is, 1918,
"Died April II, 1902"
On the South:
"Governor of South Carolina 1876
1879.
"United States Senator 1S79-91. "
On The lower first course are ten
bronze panels containing the name of
the ten battles, five on each side, in
which General Hampton participated.
On the foot Of the same course is a
bronze tablet on which these words
are inscribed:
"To Wade Hampton.'
On the rear of the same course is a
similar tablet with this inscription:
"Ercctcd \. d. 190G.'
Mr.. Ruclstuhl was two years in
making the statue, but completed the
work one year before the expiration
of the limit set by his contract with
the commission. The statue itself was
made lust outside of Paris in the
country. The work was done in Paris
for the purpose Of cXrosin" it in the
salon, but was completed two weeks
too late for this years exhibit and
Mr.. Ruckstuhl preferred to deliver thc
work rather than wait another year.
Paris was an ideal place for the work,
since there can be found any sort Of
model for any purpose imaginable and
there is the artistic atmosphere.
Mr.. Ruckstuhl is himself a native Of
France, having been born in those
same Vosgs mountains from which
his beautiful marble came. When one
year old his parents, who were of AL
satan descent, came to this country
and the sculptor's boyhcod was spent
in st. Louis. His home now is in
New York city, but he has visited
Paris frequently and speaks French as
fluently as he does English. He has
taken great pains with this work and
has personally supervised the placing
of every stone in the monument and
the erection Of the statue itself.

Studied BY the Artist.

"Cne Of the greatest difficulties In
art" remarked critic, is to get ones
facts right, and for this you have to
go not to art, but to the people who
understand the things represented.
81 received my first lesson in this
direction when, as a youth, 1 painted
a coast scene with ship in the fore
ground. 1t was highly praised by all
who saw it, with the exception of an
old seaman, who, when he examined
the rigging, politely turned aside to
conceal his amusement. No ship, he
explained, could possibly have gone to
sea with the ropes and tackle arranged
as in my picture. So I had to humble
myself to learn to draw reeving-
blocks, shrouds, yards, and other por-
tons Of a ships rigging as they really
are.
"But it is not always possible to be
true to fact
"Take, for instance, a typical picture
which represents a herd Of self-deny-
ing cattle grazing in a meadow where
the heritage is of the scantiest, while
near at hand are unprotected fields of
grain into which they could walk at
will Why did not the painter include
in his picture the fences which &C.
tually surrounded the corn fields?
Simply because they would have spoilt
the composition, and consequently
reality had to be sacrificed to the de-

DOings in New York.

whose name in New York is almost q
household word, as the police declare

Of some of New York's wealthiest fami-
lies, when the detectives and officers
gained entrance to the drawing room
and revealed themselves, formed a
thrilling tab1eau Several women went
on their knees to the detectives. They
offered their rings, anything
they possessed-rather than face the ex-
posure of arrest or even the chance OF
their identities becoming known.
One woman c1asped the detective
sergeant by the knees as she knelt
pleading for her liberty. Another tore
her rings from her fingers, and offered
them all to him, saying: "If my name
is known there will be murder or sui
eide in my home, for my husband will
either kill me or shall kill myself"

models brought home by a tailor who
nas shop just off Fifth AverAue were
sent into the workroom to be resewn

Most expensive French lingerie is

No words can express the horror Of
English tailoring. In London they have
made an attempt to meet American
tastes, but the English tailor's con-

hind, while straight row of stitch
ing is beyond the modest capability of
the English workshop.
Many a woman who in her first
month abroad materially diminished
her letter of credit, has come home to
wish for the trim smartness of Broad
way. The frills beloved of the English
woman, and the skin tight little Jackets
of the Frenchwoman quickly lose their
fascination for the American woman
whose aim in dress is unusually seem
ing simplicity that has cost her tailor
hours Of nice calculation and herself
great deal of trouble and not little
money.
After all, the exp, rienced American
traveller buys few things outside of
his own country. Considering quality
and manufacture, nearly all articles of
ordinary wear are cheaper in the Uni
ted States than elsewhere. The law
allows only $100 worth of foreign ap-
parel to be- brought in duty free, and
if this is conscientiously lived up to-
the saving is small on imported goods.
A few gloves, ostrich plumes or small
pieces of jewelIy, are about the only
things the sensible tourist will bother
with on his return.

MOTHER OF SENATOR DICK OF OHIO.

Mrs. Magdalene Dick is one Of the
few mothers in Washington who can
visit the United States Senate cham
Der and look down upon son who
is a member of the most powerful
legislative body on earth. That son
is the Hon. Charles William Frederick
Dick, senator from Ohio, who succeed
ed the lamented Mark Hanna.
There is especial swelling of pride
in the breast Of Mrs. Dick as she looks
down from the Senate Gallery upon
her boy, for the reason that she knows
better than any one else how many
were the struggles and how rough the
paths that led to his present honor.
Both parents of Senator Dick were
born in Germany but they met and
married here, settling in Akron Ohio,
where the father was an humble arti-
san. He was careful and frugal after
the German fashion but was not very
successful in business. The little fam
