tertainment which the company gives
is essentially musical 1t will be the
best thing to visit Laurens this winter,
and should be well patronized.
It's good old world after all:

Saint Gaudens' Lincoln Described.

Next in order in Saint Gaudens pro-
fessonal work came the statue of Abra-
ham Lincoln, erected in Lincoln Park,
Chicago, in 1887 The martyred Presi-
dent Is represented in the characteristic
attitude of making a public speech. He
stands before chair In an audience
chamber, with head slightly bent,
his right arm thrust behind him, his left
foot advanced This is considered by
some critics the greatest of all Saint Gau-
denS' works, but others prefer his second
statute Of Lincoln, recently cast under a
bequest of the late John Crerar. BY the
courtesy of the trustees of the Crerar Lin
coin monument fund the public will be
permitted to view the statue in Washing
ton before 1T is transferred to its perma-
nent place in one of the parks on the
south side of Chicago. The figure is of
heroic size, seated in an armchair, body
and head directed to the front, head
slightly lowered. as If in thought. right
hand open. palm down on knee: left hand
closed and resting on arm of chair; feet
set squarely on circular base. A flag Is
thrown across the back of the chair and
droops to the floor.
This statue of Lincoln and one of
Charles Stewart Parnell, which are the
great sculptor's last works, will both be
seen here for the first time by the pub
lie. The Parnell statue is to appear
upon monument to be erected in honor
of the great Irish leader in Dublin, and
is said to be a striking figure. but, I'M
fortunately it will be placed at the sum-
NIT of lofty shaft, where it cannot be
seen distinctly.
Other Works to Be Seen.
Among other great works of Saint eau
dens, which will be exhibited in the orig
inal cast, are the Sherman monument at
the entrance Of Central Park, New York,
with several studies made from life, and
from imagination, between 1888 and 1903.
The Sherman statue was begun in 1892,
finished in 1897. exhibited at the Paris eX-
position in 1899, and unveiled on DecOra-
ton day, 1903.

Erroneous Impression.
SPEAKS AT COLLEGE PARK
First Hearing Largely Attended by
Representative Farmers, Bankers
and Business Men.

Conveying a message Of encoura cement
from the President, whose guest he was
last night, Prof. l.. II. Bailey of Cornell
University, chairman of the commission
on country life, in an address today at
the first hearing of the commission at
College Park, Md, disposed of an erro-
neous impression that the body named by
the President is for the purpose of inves-
tigating the farmer or for inquiring into
the technical methods of charming. On
the contrary. he asserted, the commits
sion's object is to make such inquiries
among the farm people as to determine
the economic. sanitary and educational
status of the open country.
Present at the hearing was representa-
tive gathering of farmers from all points
of Maryland, in addition to groups of
business men, ministers, teachers, bank
ers and others. State and county officials
also were well represented.
Cooperation Warmly Invited.
The desire of the Maryland farmers to
lend aid in the commissions undertaking
was manifest in the discussions which
followed Prof. Bailey's address.
THE work of the commission" Prof
Bailey said, implies no criticism of the
farmer it is after conditions and tenden-
cies and the means of lettering them 1t
is not an .uplift' commission, as that
term is generally used. In the time at its
disposal 1t cannot make a scientific in
vestigation into economic and social
questions, but it can make a broad pre-
liminary exploration of the whole field of
country life and set going a new piece of
welfare work. We desire the Cooper
alton of any person who knows rural
conditions and has an opinion to express
Opinions Freely Expressed.
Opinions as to the present condition of
country life in Maryland were contributed
freely by the farmers, and the commits
sioners were gratified to note the interest
which their preliminary canvass by let
tiers had created. The hearing was one of
suggestion and inquiry. The condition of
farm homes, the school training as adapt
ed to life on the farm, the returns OBJ
tanned by the farmer from the sale of his
products. the financial progress made by
the farm tenants and labor conditions
formed the basis of the discussions.
The members of the commission, Prof.
Bailey, Henry Wallace of Des Moines,
Kenyon L. Butterfield of Amherst, Mass;
DIR. Walter III. Page of North Carolina,
and Clifford Pinchot, chief forester, Will
confer with President Roosevelt at the
White House tonight before departing on
their tour of the south's industrial CEN
tiers.

number of years. Mr.. Gilbert has been
the most successful perhaps of all A1heri-
can architects in competitions He won
