Inc scene or this shrine to military
fame Is. appropriately enough, the ma
tional capitalize city of Washing
ton. which is coming veal by year to
take on more and more the character
of a beautiful creation in architecture
and sculpture and landscape garden
ing that is the property Of the whole
people. The statues to the victors in
the struggle between the north and
south occupy conspicuous positions in
the most advantageously located Of
the parks and circles with which the
seat of government abounds-verdure-
clad breathing spaces which seem as
though they might have been special
ly provided as sites for just such he
roic or life-size figures. Some Of the
statues are under the shadow of the
capitol, others cluster about the White
House. and yet others are placed
where they will kindle inspiration in
the patriotic pilgrim to the capital.
Much of the impressiveness of the
statues to the military heroes Of the
Federal armies is doubtless due to the
fact that almost all of them are eques-
TRAN. 1t is customary in all countries
10 portray as men on horseback"
only the so-called royal p~ersonages, or
men who were actual commanders of
troops, or enjoyed the title of COM
mander. The first equestrian statue
ever erected in the Western Hem
isphere. was the one of George III. Of
England, which stood in Bowling
Green at the foot of Broadway, New
York city, and which during the war
for independence was melted up and
cast into bullets by patriotic daugh-
ters of Miss Columbia.
The oldest equestrian monument
now standing In the New World is a
colossal statue Of Charles Nv. Of Spain,
In the City of Mexico. The initial
equestrian statue In the United States
Is the renowned one of Gen. Andrew
jackson. which stands in the park d.
rectly In front of the White House at
Washington. 1t is estimated that there
are 400 equestrian statues in the
world. of which number the city on
the Potomac will have. with the com
pletion of the Grant memorial, a total
. OF IL, most OF them representations OF
Civil war heroes.
The first statue arranged for In
honor of a warrior identified with
the Civil wal was that In which Gen
Winfield Scott is depicted mounted on
a charger at rest. This monument
was ordered In 1867, and was erected
seven years later. General Scott Is
IN the uniform of lieutenant general
The material for the figures of horse
and rider was derived from canno
captured during the Mexican war II
which General Scott won his creates
fame. The pedestal for this statue II
made up OF five huge pieces Of granite
cut in Cape Ann quarries. and at the
time they were obtained. the larges

progress for some years past, and already a
dozen or more of the foremost warriors in the
Union army have been thus honored. OF late

PLEAD NOT GUILTY.
Directors of Sugar Trust Say There Is
No "NIan Higher Up"

New York, Jan. 12.-"No attempt
whatever has been made to shield any
one and your board has no reason to
believe and does not believe that any
officer or director of this company had
any knowledge of or participated in
this fraudulent underweighing"
This was the answer made by the
board of directors of the American
Sugar Refining company today to the
charges that some one higher up III
the so called sugar trust was RESPONSE
BILE for the use Of doctored scales on
the Williamsburg dock by which the
United States was defrauded out of
more than 100000 in duties.
Stockholders of the American Sugar
Refining company met in Jersey City
today and the company's position with
regard to the sugar underweighing was
made known in a report of the board of
directors.
The majority of the stock of the
company, the report states. is held in
New England. In answer to the charge
that the company exercises a monopoly
in the sugar trade the directors said
not more than 43 per cent of the sugar
consumed in the country was refined by
the American company.
The company has no agreement, di-

ach of Holman.

Terre Haute, Ind, Jan. 1.-THE
stomach of w. H Niederhelman, or
Holman, contained So grains of potas-
SUM cyanide, according to chem
lists report submitted to the coroner
today.
AS Holman must have died ten min
utes after he swallowed this poison,
the coroner will Immediately recon-
mend that the charge of murder
against Fife SeIlsberry and Henry
Corcoran, held by the police of New
Orleans, be dismissed.
Holman, who was found dead in his
room at a hotel here, left note say
ing Effie Sellsberry had poisoned him.
The prosecutor, despite the coroner S
decision, refused to recall his deputy
who had left for New Orleans with
warrants for the SelIsberry woman
and Corcoran. He said the case had
several suspicious aspects which he
wished to clear up.

LUTON A STRANGE MAN
Policeman Feared to Exceed Author
ity by Breaking Open Door.

1t is possible that there is a dead
negro locked in the residence at 1928
Chandler street. An investigation will
probably be made later in the after
noon, which will determine this to a
certainty. The police were this morn
ing informed by residents in that
vicinity that the colored man who oc-
cupied the house had not been seen
since Saturday.
Detective William Hutton was dis
patched to investigate. He found the
doors locked, the windows fastened
and the key left in the lock of the
door. There were no tracks or evil
dence of life about the premises, and
not caring to exceed his authority. the
detective did not investigate further,
but reported the condition to head
quarters.
It was stated by the police at 2
o'clock that a further investigation
would be made later in the day. The
lone resident in the house is aged, and
it is believed that he might either
have died or taken his life

LAUGH AND LIVE LONG.

Thackeray truly remarked that the
world is for each of us much as we
show ourselves to the world. II we
face it with CHEEKY acceptance, we
find the world fairly full of cheerful
people. glad to see us. II we snarl
at and abuse IT, we may be sure Of
abuse in return. f
The discontented worries of a mo-
rose person may very likely shorten
his days. and the general justice of
natures arrangements provides that
hi seariy departure should entail no
long regrets. On the other hand, a
man who can laugh keeps his health,
and his friends are glad to keep him.
To- the perfectly healthy laughter
comes often. p
[ Too commonly, though, as child
hood Is left behind, the habit fails.
and half-smile is the best that visits
the thought-lined mouth OF the mod
ern man and woman. People become
more and more burdened with the ac-
cumuiation OF knowledge and with the
Weighing responsibilities OF life. but
they should still spare time TO laugh.
