Indiana people In Washington are in
serious disagreement over the merits of
the statue of Gen. Lew Wallace. ''sOl-
der, author, and diplomat" according
to the inscription on the base, which
has just been set up in Statuary Hall
as the second contribution from Indiana
TO the gallery OF American immortals.
The statue is to be a companion piece
/ 20 the figure Of Oliver P. Morton, the
war governor. Chief blame for the al
legged incongruit!es In the statue is laid
on the statue commission.
Point Out Error.
Some of the literary celebrities Of In
diana think an error was made in por-
traying Wallace in military dress. They
held that HIS chief claim 70 distraction
was as the author OF '-Ben-Hur" The
investment Of the efigy with the uniform
Of a soldier was the conception OF the
members OF Gen Wallace's regiment
IN the civil war.
They cherish the keen resentment ex-
pressed by their late commander be-
cause OF the criticism OF his conduct al
the battle OF Shiloh by Gen. Grant and
some other military men.
There was much discussion before it
was decided TO emphasize the military
feature. In his last years Gen. Wallace
complained bitterly Of the criticisms ut
tered against his part m the battle Of
Shiloh by Gen. Grant. He took special
pride in his military record.
He served IN the Mexican and civil wars
and sought a commission as major gen
eral in the Spanish-American war; but
President Mckinley thought ne was too
old
In view Of the fact that Gen. Joe"
Wheeler was commissioned in the Span
ish-American war, Cen. Wallace felt that
he had been sighted, and charged the re-
fusal of the commission 70 the work OF
political enemies
The figure exposed to view yesterday in
Statuary Hall shows Gen. Wallace in ne
rolc. almost defiant. pose. his buttoned
military coat apparently struggling with
the breeze. but he is hatless.
shown without Hat.
Hoosier critics pointed out that neither
on his head nor in his hand is there a
hat. cap, or military chapeau. and they
insist that the general was too precise a
diplomat 10 go 20 war without head COW
ering.
The efHgy is OF white marble, but the
pedestal IS OF Indiana limestone. Here
Is another artistic incongruity, say the
literary men from Indiana Gov. Morton,
the companion piece. stands on granite.
The Wallace statue is the only one in
Statuary Hall mounted on a limestone
base.
The critics declare the artistic has been
sacrificed in an effort 10 advertise one
Of the Hoosier States leading industries,
and they predict that when the Indiana
limstone base becomes seasoned, the ar
tistic incongruity Will be emphasized. The
Indiana stone, admitted 70 be admirable
for building purposes. has a tendency TO
darken under certain seasoning pro.
cesses. say the Indiana authors
The Wallace statue will be presented
and accepted formally TO the Congress
next Tuesday Public exercises OF un-
yelling will be held in Statuary Hall, at
which GOV. Marshall and. Senator Bev-
eridge will speak, and James Whitcomb
Riley, Indianas poet laureate, will read
an original poem. Exercises accepting
the statue will be held the same day =,

tives.

Why b the Cows Sid. ?

When the pupils In . Frankford,
Penn, school were Informed by their
teacher one day recently that the
school director was coming the next
day, they became very studious, and
were prepared to answer almost any
question he should ask. Every face
was washed, every pair Of shoes was
shined, aud every boy had on a clean
collar when he entered the schoolhouse
The teacher was very proud of all Of
them.
They were very much attention
when the director arose to address
them.
Now, tell me, he said, some of the
things that are made In Frankfort.
Clothes, eaid John knight.
Right, replied the director.
Now, some of the bright boys hurry
up and tell me, he continued. what the
skin Of COW il used for.
The director expected Of course that
they would say that cowhide was used
to make leather, and one can Imagine
the chagrin Of the teacher when little
Tommy Coyle jumped up and said,
Please, sir, the skin Is used to keep
the meat in.

The Salt Lake Herald on Monday,

manager Of the Denver Il Rio Grande,
with his party, left for Denver yester-
day afternoon, Mr.. Clarke's private
car Ballyclare being attached to train

expressed his satisfaction with present
conditions along the line Of the Denver
& Rio Grande, stating that everything
is in first-class shape considering the
winter conditions. He had nothing to
say as to contem plated or possible
future changes and Improvements on
the Utah division Of the Rio Grande.
Zone of the big things we have started
in Colorado is the standardizing OF the
narrow gauge tracks between Mont
rose and Salida," he said. 1--WE cam
not say how soon this task will be COM
pleted, but work will be FASTENED. II
everything goes well, we will eventually
have the entire system running In
standard width" Mr.. Clarke is of the
opinion that it will only be few year
until all the standard gauge roads in
the United Safes will be replaced by a
broader gauge. An immense amount
of work and expense is entailed in the
transfer Of freight from the standard to
the narrower cars, and the passenger
facilities over the narrower line always
present demand for the standard

A. w. Arnold presented the senior
editor Of The Star with two Confeder-
ate bills Wednesday. One was ten
dollar bill issued in 1864, and the other
a one-dollar bill issued in 1862. The
one-dollar bill differs from the present
day currency in that it is only printed
on one side. A fatty memory prevents
our comparing the larger bill. These
bills are attractively printed and well
preserved. To US they are only relic

Pennington had $50, ,OOO-fire last
week which destroyed part of the BUSH
ness section of the town. The loss was
partially covered by insurance. The
citizens of Pennington were making
plans to install water system which
would give the town fire protection.
But, like many other towns, they spent
too much time planning. The $4,000,
which went up in smoke in a few
hours, would have gone long ways
toward paying for q system. 1t is to
be earnestly hoped that Dolores may
escape the ravages of q fire until a
water system is installed in this town.
A fire in the business section at the
present time would clear it of buildings,
and in many parts of the resident
section fire could not be confined to
one building il the wind should be
blowing.
