COURT HOUSE PLOT SITE
FOR NEW LINCOLN STATUE.
Emancipation to Be Shown
Seated on Park Bench.

Gutzon Borglun the sculptor, and
several men, interested in the Lincoln
statue, one of three monuments pre-
sented to the city by the Amos II. Van
Horn estate yesterday afternoon de-
cided on the exact location OF the mon-
ument on the triangular plot of ground
in front of the Court House. Owing
to the irregular position of the plot
considerable difficulty was experienced
in finding suitable spot
The statue is still in the studio of
the sculptor, but will be brought to
Newark and unveiled before the end
of the year 1t will show Lincoln sit
ting at the extreme end of park
bench, hat beside him. in slightly
stopped position, apparently at rest.
But as rest and Lincoln were almost
strangers, it will be NOTICED, on close
inspection, that the great emancipator's s
mind is at work.
IT placed Lincoln at the end of the
bench" said Mr.. Borglun, because II
would be unnatural for him to monopo-
lize the whole seat. The figure shows
the Lincoln of the Civil War, with all
the cares of his office on his mind"
The figure, when resting on the mar
BILE base, will be 3 feet inches from
the ground. 1t is expected that three
slabs will be built around the monu-
ment, inviting the passerby to sit down.
Those who were in front Of the Court
House yesterday, besides Mr.. Borglun,
were: For the city, John Spur, John
Cotton Dana and Vice. Chancellor How
ell: for the Van Horn estate. Ralph
Lum, John MARTENS and George w.
