William Allen Wood of Indianapolis
presented the statue on behalf OF the
memorial commission and Gov. Mar
shall accepted 1t on behalf of the state
of Indiana This evening the Indiana
society OF Washington will hold a
large reception at the Arlington hotel.
The statue of Gen. Wallace is the
work of Andrew o'Connor an Amer,
ican sculptor now residing in Paris.
The figure is slightly over life size,
and, with the pedestal, stands over
ten feet high. 1t is of white marble
and represents the soldier barehead'
ed and with his military uniform
carelessly fastened, as If he had just
emerged from his tent He is erect in
posture and on the alert, his eye look
ing into the distance. The pedestal
is a square block Of Indiana lime
stone. The memorial was accepted by
joint resolution of congress. -.

LEOPARD MUTILATEs TRAINER
MRS. RussELLE PREDICTS BEAST
WOULD GIVE HER TROUBLE. (,
Enters Cage, Animal Sinks Fangs
Into woman's Throat
~ and Head.

New York, jan 10.-Mrs. Pauline
Russelle, trainer of performing
leopards, was seriously mutilated by
one of three of these animals Plshe
owns while she was putting the brutes
through a rehearsal of their act in a
big cage Son the fourth floor OF
Huber's museum, in East Fourteenth
street.
Before going to Huber's she told her
friend, Miss Grace Ma Dill, a confer.
ZIONIST, that she expected trouble with
the leopard called Clayton. and so she
put on her heaviest costume, blouse
covered with large shick metal span.
giles, corduroy trousers under braid.
ed military skirt and vanished knee
knots.
She found, as she had feared, that
Clayton was in bad temper, so she
drove the other two leopards into an.
other cage and set about subduing the
refractory beast .'.,.
She was caught unawares by sud
den spring and knocked down. The
leopard sank his fangs into her throat
and with his keen claws mauled her
head, decorating her scalp fIlghtfully.
With the brute's fangs in her throat
she was unable to scream, but her as
sistant, James Hendrickson, was
quick to act. The leopard's tail, as
ne crouehed over rhe PROSTATE body
of the performer, was thrust out be-
tween the bars of the cage. Hen
erickson seized the tail and twisted
1t with all his strength. The leopard
released his clutch on Mrs. Russelle's
throat.
Mrs. Russelle, although blood was
gushing from her throat and her eyes
we're almost blinded by the crimson
streaming down her face from her
lac.rated scalp, bravely struggled to
her feet, raised the gate of the cage
and, while Hendrickson held the
leopard's tail in a vise-like grip, she
staggered out into the aisle in front
of the cage and fell to the floor

Former Leader of Unemployed 6ewaiIs
"a High Prices and Says Back
to the Farm"

New York, Jan. 11.-Jacob s. Coxey,
who some years ago led a famous
march of the unemployed on Washing
ton, is in New York for few days
rest and recreation He is staying at
the Waldorf-Astoria
Coxey is much alarmed over the
ever-increasing, cost OF living.
The farmer is TIE lucky man these
days, says he. The cost of living has
gone up so per cent, for the rich man,
but 1t has more than doubled for the
poor man. The farmer is getting a
good share OF the difference. This
should nave its effect, and if the poor
people in the cities can be brought to
see the light and rush to the farms,
things will be better all around"
