 The memorial Is the first statue |of Confederate officer to be erect ed in the vicksburg national military park. It occupies prominent, high elevation in the park. just south of the A. and C.. railroad. where Gen Lee was placed in command of his troops during the memorable siege of Vicksburg.
 The statue was modeled by Henry Hudson Kitson, the Massachusetts sculptor. The figure is of colossal size, standing nine feet high. The at titude is that of expectancy. of mo mentary rest before decisive action The left leg is raised and thrown for ward. and the unsheathed sword held in both hands. rests upon 1t. the scab bard hanging by. the side. The uni form and accoutrements are the ia miliar ones of the wearers of the gray. The insignia of rank appears on the coat collar. The buttons bear in relief the eagle and eleven stars The details of dress were carefully worked out by the sculptor. but with an evident purpose not to detrac' from the main motive, that Of ereat ing a faithful likeness of one of the best beloved of generals in the Con federate army.
 The cost of the memorial was ir the neighborhood of S10.00o. whicf sum was raised by contributions iron many sources. north and south. | was made possible largely through | the energy and initiative of Captain

Geary street on Monday night had their
cases dismissed by Police Judge Shor-
tall yesterday. as ii was proved that
the door was only bolted so as to pre-

The arrests were made by Policemen
Charles Calvin, Antoine Schoembs and
Martin Fogarty. and it developed that
Fogarty distinguished himself while
laboring under harrassing conditions.
The policemen. being unable to effect
an entrance, climbed to the roof, and
it was suggested that Fogarty should
allow himself to be tied TO a rope
and drop down through the sky1ight
into the room and hold the players
while Calvin and Schoembs watched
the door.
One end OF the rope was tied to an
iron pipe and the other round Fo-
garty's body. The skylight was quiet
iy opened and Fogarty was gently
lowered. The players jumped from
their seats and were making g break
for the door when Fogarty, dangling
about eight feet from the floor. the

them at bay till Calvin and Schoems
