STATUE 0F GENERAL lee
FOR VICKSRURG PARK

Miss, which was his home town. Tne
larger model is about to be sent to a
bronze foundry in New York, where 1t
will be cast in accordance with the
best present day practice. 1t will be
ready in time for the dedication on
June II, one of the days when the
United Confederate Veterans will be
in session at Memphis, Tenn, making
a special excursion to Vicksburg. Its
location will be ON Confederate ave-
nue., near the railroad redoubt, and
opposite the Iowa state memorial, an
appropriate site, since it was the boys
from Iowa who assaulted the fort
which General Lee defended with
great skill and courage during the
siege. This first monument to
leader of the lost cause to be installed
in the national military park at Vicks-
burg is due to contributions from
many sources, North and outh. 1t was
made possible largely through the
energy and initiative of Captain VIII
liam T. Rigby, chairman of the ma
tional military park commission, who,
as an Iowa soldier, fought against
General Lee in 1868, and who, as an
associate in the work of the commits
sion. became one of his warmest
ffipOdc and adnirpre
This is the third important commits
sion which Mr.. Kitson has executed
for Vicksburg, the preceding ones
having been monuments for the States
of Massachusetts and Iowa. He has
also recently finished for dedication
at Paducah, KY, on May Is, full
length statue of General Lloyd Thigh
man, who was killed by cannon ball
at Champions Hill during the Vicks-
burg campaign Mr.. Kitson expects
to be at Vicksburg on the occasion Of
the dedication of the Lee monument in
June.

BOSTON, Mass. April ga clay
model of the first statue of Confed-
crate officer to be erected in the
National Military Park at Vicksburg
has just been completed in the studio
of Henry Hudson Kitson at Quincy. 1t
represents Lieutenant General Steph-
en- Dill Lee. The figure is of colos-
sal size, standing nine feet high. The
attitude 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 it, 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 appear on the
coat collar. The buttons bear in re-
lief the eagle and eleven stars. The
sculptor has been attentive to the
textures, showing Enthusiastically the
quality of felt in the hat, the smooth
ness of the leather on the sides of
the boots where they rub against sad
ole or steed, the character of the
proadcloth of the military coat and the
heavy leather gauntlets beneath which
the strongly modelled hands and wrists
are fe&. These details have been
carefully worked out, but with an evil
dent purpose not to detract from the
main motive, that of creating a faith
Iul likeness of one of the best beloved
OF generals in the Confederate army.
In his studies for this work Mr. Kit
son has not only had access to docu-
ments and relics of great usefulness,
out he has been helped by impress
sions formed during a personal friend
ship with General Lee. extending over
several years before his death in 1908.

Tor that monument, and close init
macy was formed at that time between
General Lee, who was a member of
the Park Commission, and the ener-

finished at his Quincy

Although the working agreement
between the bituminous coal oper-
ators and United Mine Workers of
America does not expire until next
April, the operators are already
making preparations to force an
issue upon the miners that may re-
suit in another great national con-
flict.
The Association Of Bituminous
Coal Operators in central Pennsyl.
vania has held several quiet meet
ings and discussed matters that are
creating considerable uneasiness in
the miners camp.
1t has leaked out that many in.
dependent operators have attended
these sessions and every effort is
being made to strengthen the as
ISOLATION to inaugurate a combined
movement to reduce wages next
spring.
The operators claim that there Is
