is regarded as the finest structure Of
its kind in the world. 1t is not map
,propriate that the statue should stand
at this noble gateway to the national
capital.
In response to the invitation of the
committee, twenty-one models We're
submitted by sculptors Of interna-
tional reputation, though only two or
three were submitted by foreigners.
So uniformly high was the merit of
these designs that the work of selec
ton was extremely difficult; but the
design finally chosen, the work of
dorado Taft, CT Chicago. meets with
general approval. 1t was selected on
account of it's simplicity. combined
with an effective harmonization with
it's setting in front of the great station
building. The model shows a grasp
of the architectural problems in
volved, and besides presents a fine
characterization of Columbus himself,
who, incidentally sailor and soldier,
was primarily great thinker. Mr..
Taft will receive the contract for
erecting the statue, which is to form
part of the scheme for central foun-
tain dominating the plaza and facing
the Capitol Building.
Other designs of especial merit
were submitted by Philip Martiny, of
New York, who received a prize of
five hundred dollars; Augustin Que
roll, of Madrid, Spain, who was given
third honors and a prize of five hum
dred dollars; Henry Herring, of New
York; T. Otto Schweiger, of Phila-
delphia; Louis Weingartner of
Bromsgrove, England; and Pierre

THE COLUMBUS STATUE

on the absence from Washington City.
where statues of heroes and near
heroes occupy almost every available
space, of any monument to Columbus
throughout the entire United States
Of Columbus, like those Of certain
ancient Roman, are conspicuous by
their absence. On the other hand,
throughout Latin America statues of
Columbus in bronze and marble are
numerous and of great beauty.
At last, however, the great discOv-
crer is to be honored, an Act Of Con-
gress approved March 4, 1907, pro-
viding for the erection of a statue
in a suitable location. one hundred
thousand dollars having been appro-
priated for the purpose, and a COM
mittee named to select TIE design.
At the time the bill was enacted.
President Taft was Secretary Of War
and chairman of the committee.

mortal shall be placed in the plaza
Of the new Union Depot. This build

astonishing examples of profit when
reviewed as'price per word is that OF
Booth Tarkington's Monsieur Beau
caire," which, totalling only about
IL 900 words, sold 100000 copies in
the original edition and $4,000 in a
subsequent cheaper edition.
Richard Harding Davis is estimated
to have made when he was an author
solely S25,O0O annually from royal
ties on his books. Robert w. Cham
bers, James Lane Allen, Thomas
Dixon, Alice Hogan Rice and Kate
Douglas Wiggin command twenty
per cent royalty, or about thirty cents
for each copy sold.
The sale of George 5arr McCutch-
cons novels in four years amounted
in round numbers to 100000 copies.
His first book, "Graustark," reached
sale of 100000; the copyright the
author had sold outright for $500.
He made no more such mistakes. A

One comparative glance is of inter
est. Poe, who died in want, was glad
to receive SIS bill for one of the best
of his tales. Ex-President Roosevelt
received an offer from one publishing
firm of 100000 for book about his
visit to Europe and another firm bid
$4,000 for a book on sports and

Concerning the writing of books as
an income producing vocation it is in
teresting to learn from Clement
Shorter the English conditions gov
erning the publication of novels.
George Gissing admits that he re-
ceived only $40 for the serial and
book rights of one of his finest nov
els. Since then things have greatly
improved, but Mr.. Shorter says that
he has seen many agreements and
that publishers constantly refuse to
pay anything at all until there is a
sale of 500 copies of a book. Some of
the most reputable publishers in Eng
land are in the habit of doing this.
One agreement that passed
through my hands the other day gave
the author nothing for his first novel
up to 500 copies. After that ten per
cent. was to be paid and the author
was tied up for three novels. One
publisher frequently pays $50 for all
rights in novel. But even with these
hard dealings the position is very
much better than it was fifteen or
twenty years ago. insist" concludes
Mr. Shorter, that no work of fiction
is worth producing when the author
cannot get publisher to undertake
the cost of production. So keen is the
competition for good work among an
ever increasing number OF publishers
that there is not the slightest danger
of volume of prose fiction, volume
of essays or a memoir going begging
for long if it has any merit whatever.

This makes a complete change in

reason that the members will not
stand for the use Of spiked running
shoes, running garments and other
paraphernalia which runners use in
