HERO OF CIVIL

Heroic Statue of Gen. Philip H,
Sheridan Unveiled With
Military POmp.
ADDRESS BY ROOSEVELT
WIDOW AND SON PRESENT AT
THE CEREMONIES.

Washington, Nov. 25.-With military
pomp and splendor an heroic statue of
General Philip Henry Sheridan was I'M
yelled in this city today. The president
of the United States and members of
the cabinet, the diplomatic corps, JUS
tices of the supreme court of the United
States, senators, representatives in con-
gress, veterans OF the civil war and
many others prominent in official life,
as well MS lar~a cOucoursn Of citizens.

blueJackets from the navy were assem-
bled as a tribute to the dashing soldier
of the civil war. whose effigy was dis
played to the public gaze for the first
time in this city today.
Statue Much Admired.
The statue. the work OF Gutzom Bor-
glum. was admired by everyone who
saw it. II represents General Sheridan
on horseback. his steed being shown in
a position of action rather than stand
ing placidiy, as is the case with so
many OF the equestrian statues of this
city
The statue is one and three-quarters
illness larger than life, and depicts Cen
eral Sheridan at the age at which he
performed MS greatest deeds. The pose
is taken from the occasion when he re-
turned TO the field at the battle of Cedar
Creek. He mad been defeated by Gen
eral Early, and as he reins in his horse
lie turns to his men, waving hat in hand
and shouts 10 them TO turn back. He is
mounted on his celebrated horse RienZi.
The sum of $4,000 was appropriated by
congress for the statue which is said
to contain more molten brass than ever
before cast in this country. The piece
is twelve feet long, eight feet wide, and
as completed the entire bronze piece is
fourteen feet in height.
Widow Pulled the Cord.
Especial interest was given the occa-
sion by the presence of the widow of
the dashing soldier and her son, Lieu
tenant Phil Sheridan of the army. The
statue was unveiled by Mrs. Sheridan
herself pulling the cord that held the
drapery in place.
The statue is located in the most fash
iOnable residential section of the city, in
what is known as Sheridan Square, at
the intersection of Massachusetts ave
nue., Twenty-third and r streets. 1t is
surrounded by many splendid mansions,
and is on the line of one of the most
popular driveways of the city.

comic opera, which opened its second en-
gagement at the Salt Lake theatre last
evening, does not have for its background
a mythical island in a mythical sea;
neither is it located in some mythical
province somewhere Oh a mythical cOnti-

scenes in a real place with a real name,
with characters which might easily be
imagined to be human. For this relief,
many benisons,
This piece is not without fauits-in fact,
there are many. But on account Of its
originality and other merits one feels like
bearing lightly on the crudities. The To-
tenn Pole song and chorus are decidedly
novel in effect. and there are numerous
other catchy things about the perfor-
nance
slushy melodrama which is introduced
here and there. In contrast with the mel
odrama, and showing something of de-
parture in conventional comic opera. is

Combination Denied.

Mr.. Feltcn denied that the United
States mills are in any combination with
European mills for controlling prices, but
said he believed the English, French,
German and Belgian mills had a trade
agreement for fixing prices. He did not
think that the price of steel rails was
controlled by international agreement, al
though he believed 1t would be to the
advantage of the American mills If the
law would permit them to become parties
to such an agreement. Mr.. FELTON, said
the total cost of producing steel rails in
this country last year was $3.50 ton.
The cost of the foreign steel rails, in

that his company was not in any trust

MARRYING ocToGENARIANs.

Baronets seem set on making second
or third marriages after they have be-
come octogenarians. In 1906 Sir Hec-
tor Hay, at the age of eighty five. took
to wife Mrs. Fordyce, widow of Major
Fordyce of Aberdeen, and in the same
year Sir James Langrishe, when
eighty-two years old. married as his
second wife Miss Algitha Gooch, only
sister of Sir Daniel Gooch. Also in 1906
Sir Robert Turing. at the age of seven
ty-nine married Mrs Herbert Ramus,
a niece of Lord Congleton. and Sir
Henry Vavasour, when well over the
allotted span, married Miss Alice Cod
rington. cousin of the Duke of Beau
fort. Sir Henry is now nearly ninety
four, keeps we'll in mind and body and
makes long trips to the continent
The late Sir Charles Tenant, father
of Mrs. Asquith. took a second wife

child was born to him when he was
eighty years old.
