ceeding further and this was granted
The matter was next brought up in
congress and threshed over. but upon
the representation that the trees could
be moved to other spots in the Botani-
cal gardens, congress ordered a re-
sumption of the work. In April OF
1908 the trees were removed and. con-
trary to the predictions of those who
opposed their removal, they are flour
ishing in their new surroundings. One
of the trees was known as the Crit
tenden peace tree, and was planted by
two gentlemen who repre- sented the
north and the south and who made a
last effort to prevent a civil war It
is fitting that the tree dedicated 10 the
last efforts at peace and the memo
rial to the man who brought about
the close of the war and the peace
which followed, should stand in the
same little park
VIII Remove the Fence.
The Botanical gardens are surround
ed by a high iron fence which takes
away much Of their beauty When the
Grant memorial is ready for I'M
yelling, this relic OF the past will be
removed, and the people who visit
Washington in the future will regard
the transformed Botanical gardens as
one of the beauty spots of the capital
city. There is one objection which has
been urged against the site chosen
for the monument It is almost the
lowest ground in downtown Washing
ton, and is at the foot OF Capitol hill
dwarfed by the domination Of the
landscape Of the capitol But ii stands
directly between the Peace monument
at the foot Of Pennsylvania avenue
and the Garfield monument at the
foot of Maryland avenue
Casey the Architect.
The architect of the Grant memorial
is Edward Pearce Casey, and the
sculptor is Henry Merwin Shrady. The
platform will cover about 1900 square
feet Of ground, being ESQ feet long by
70 feet wide. 1t will be the thirty
third monument in Washington under
the care of the government. and there
are at least six more in contemp1ation=
those of Jefferson. Hamilton, Barry,
Columbus, John Paul Jones and Lin
coin.
The library of congress has prepared
a list OF the equestrian statues Of the
world which shows that there are
20 such statues in existence to-day.
Some regard the Marcus Aurelius statue
IN Rome as the finest and the one OF
Charles ", dominating the entrance to
the famous Paseo de Ia Reforma in
Mexico City is certainly the largest.
About one-fifth of all the worlds
equestrian statues are in the United
States, and almost half of them are in
the city of Washington George
Washington has twice as many eques-
TRAN statues to his memory as any
other American. He is followed as
a favorite by Andrew Jackson and
the the one now under construction

The first equestrian statue TO gem

ganz The exploring party settled that
question by certain identifcations.
It is a well known fact among those
familiar with oriental languages and
customs that when the Arabs, in the
seventh century, conquered Syria, the
Greeks and people OF Latin extraction.
that the Sarecenic invaders were not
able to pronounce the Greek and Latin
names OF the various Typographical
features of the country. This was he
cause Of the vast difference between
the languages Of Europe and those OF
ARABIA; but as the Latin tongue is
etosely allied TO the Hebrew and Phoe-
nlclan. the ancient Hebrew or Phoenf-
clan names Of localities still generally
known were applied by the Arabs. In
THIS way mount Nebo is known to the
Bedouins as Jebel Nebo and mount Pis-
gah as Jebel Siyagah- Therefore the
discovery OF those names naturally led
10 the Identification Of Nebo ana Pis-
