talent, as shown in his Wild Horses

Some years ago a famous French
artist painted a cavalry charge in which
several of the figures were in the pose
shown by instantaneous photography.
The painting was bought by the French
Government and hung in the Luxem-
bourg Gallery. The artist however, be
came dissatisfied with these figures and
repainted the picture. The human eye
does not take in easily, If at all, the
sudden movements or the animal In
quick motion, and while the snap shot
should be used as an aid to the artist
in getting a lifelike pose, the result
should be a representation natural to
the normal vision. If it is not too late
the sculptor should be asked to give US
something at least harmonious in out

two aisles, SO color-bearers in the lead,

Department officers took the place as
signed them, while the color-bearers
formed across the front of the church,

rounds of applause. The Department

THE SHERIDAN STATUE.
The Artists Criticize 1t More Strongly
Than the Public.

This is picture of the Sheridan
Statue which will soon grace CD Sheri-
dan Circle in this city. 1t Is simply i'm
possible from any standpoint you view
it. In connection with the criticism
which was given in The National Trib-
une last week. this from J. NJ. Dunbar
is certainly q cincher:
'Aftsr years of waiting it seems as
if we are to have freakish-looking
statue of Sheridan, for surely if Jack
son is mounted on a hobby horse
Sheridan as represented by Borglum, is
after the fashion OF a. jumping-ja ok
with the legs pulled together. or maybe
it is that of tired horse striving to
pull his feet out of the mire. However
spirited the rider may seem. the horse
is painfully acknowledging animal.
Ward made a far finer statue, and the
matter of making Sheridan more youth
full looking could easily have been done.
We are told that Borglum has sought
for the unusual in pose, and has caught
in bronze snapshot picture of mo-
mentary position. h
Few momentary positions are fit for
the purpose of portrait sculpture. One

Unpleasant Feelings Over the Appoint

There is blood on the face of the
moon in New Hampshire over the APP
pointment of the Pension Agent at
Concord. A Vermont man had the po-
sition for eight years. and now the New
Hampshire men think they should have
show. They had two good candi-
dates, Maj. Murray, of Wilton, and
Capt Musgroye, of Bristol, but it is
claimed that National Committeeman
Frank S. Streeter and Col. Winston
Churchill, the novelist, and who is ac-
tive in New Hampshire politics, We're
instrumental in defeating their pur-
pose. Charles Fairbanks, of Vermont,
was appointed to the vacancy, but in
executive session Senators Gallinger and
Burnham objected, and the nomination
was rejected. 1t is claimed that Frank
S. Streeter, the National Committee
man. is an opponent of Senator CALM
ger, and is working things to succeed
him in the Senate. Mr.. Churchill, who
was defeated for Governor on reform
ticket, is now political partner with Mr..
Streeter. The appointment of Mr.. Fair
banks is therefore regarded as a step in
promoting Mr.. Streeter'S chances. Com

EX-SENATOR MILLER.
The bankruptcy and Physical Brenl<down
Of a Once Prominent Political Leader.

III Vnce PROMINENT POiitfcai Leauer.
Veterans everywhere will hear with
regret of the physical and financial
breakdown of Comrade Warner Miller,
once Senator from New York. Com
rade Miller was born in Oswego County.
N. y, Aug. II, 1898, and graduated
from Union College He began teach
ing, but on the outbreak of the war en-
listed in the 5th N. Y. Cav, in which
he rose to be Sergeant-Major and First
Lieutenant. He was taken prisoner at
Winchester and held for some time.
Upon being mustered out5he went back
to farming, and engaged in the manu-
facture of paper in which he became
unusually successful and accumulated a
large fortune. He also took strong
interest in politics, was delegate to the
Republican National Convention at
Philadelphia, elected to the New York
Legislature, and then served two terms
in Congress. When the famous break
came between Roscoe Eonkling and
President Garfield, Miller was elected
to the Senate to succeed Conkling, and
he was later the Republican candidate
for Governor. He was AM enthusiast on
the Panama Canal, and on one of his
voyages to the Isthmus was wrecked
and nearly lost his life. Tt seems that
he has been investing heavily in West
ern mines, and particularly in the Sierra
Consolidated Gold Mining Company,
which has a capital stock of $4,000, 600
and was incorporated IL years ago, but
has not yet become productive. He
had suffered severe losses in other ways
and Jan. Is made a general assignment
for the benefit of his creditors. little
after signing the papers he left the
office, saying that his mental and physi-
cal condition was such that he could
not give any Ineligible account of his
affairs, but would return as soon aS
able to do so. The assignee declare

A deficit Of 5000, 900 In the Unit
ed States Treasury for the current fiscal
year, as predicted by Chairman Tawney
Of the House Committee on Appropria-
tons, is not an improbable condition il
the ratio of receipts to expenditures
during the last few days are any indi-
cation of what is to be expected in the
future.
For several days the excess Of regular
Government disbursements over receipts
has averaged upward of $1,000,00O d
day. A few days ago the expenditures
were $955,09s in excess of the receipts
from customs, internal revenue and
miscellaneous sources combined. Dur
ing the current month the disburse-
ments have run nearly $4,000, 000
ahead Of the receipts and the deficit
for the fiscal year. which has five
months yet to run, is more than $751;
100000 For the last week or two the
| expenditures of the Government have
been unusually large. the amount in the
present month being more than $10,-
000,6 larger than in the same month
of 1907.
AT the same time the receipts from
all sources have increased by more
than 100000. Thus far in January
there has been a slight increase in re-
ceipts from miscellaneous sources, but
the current income of the Government
from customs and internal revenue has
fallen off considerably. The decrease
in customs receipts during the first 90
days of January has been nearly $5.-

preciated.

That music does not always have
charms "to soothe the sayage breast
was illustrated in the Fourth Precinct
Police Court today, when Joseph Nor
gan, of 604 Hunterdon street, said to be
the champion long-distance piano
player of the world, was arraigned
upon complaint of his wife, who said
that he constantly disturbed herself
and the neighbors because of his PEN
chant for emulating Paderewski. Nor
gan bears a slight resemblance to the
famous pianist, and 1t is said can land
r%ight-hand swings and left-hand jabs
on the worries even harder than the
great Paderewski himself, in fact.
Mr.. Morgan seemed to be surprised
when Judge Herr referred to his piano
playing as a neighborhood annoyance,
and said thai he had played the piano
for years. He admitted having a fam
lily argument" with his wife, but the
fact thai the quality of his piano play
ing was under suspicion had never en-
tered his mind. Mrs. Morgan said that
when her husband had imbibed with
more than ordinary frequency in the
cup that cheers, that he would seat
himself at the piano for many hours
and never cease to pour our a whirl-
wind of melody and sparkling frivolity,
embracing the most emphatic musical
hits, and scores of ensembles, calcu-
lated to be veritable cyclones of sue
cess.
Neighbors have joined Mrs. Morgan
in asking the long-distance player to
call off his incessant musical roper
toire embracing everything from Pop
Goes the Weasel to "Rusticanna." To
all he has turned a deaf ear, and the
piano has played on. Judge Herr told
Morgan that If he persisted in display
ing his musical attainments to the an
noyance of other people he would en-
terrain a complaint against him.
Hell do it again." said Mrs. Nor
gan. eff he does he goes to Jail,
added the court.
Morgan once played nineteen hours
without a stop.
