One of the remarkable discoveries
that the society has made is The fact
that red second growth hickory and

the red was eff the higher specific graV-

these engineers has been that wheel

The Edwin Booth Memorial.

When the lamented death of Angus
tine Saint Gaudens deprived the Play
ers of the possibility of securing the
Booth statue for Gramercy park from
his genius, Mr. MacMcnnies was Sc
fected for the work The idea was to
have the great actor depicted in his
most characteristic representation, that
of Hamlet, and to make the statue a
portrait one of the man who was near
est to the ideal of the poet in his en-
hodiment of the melancholy Dane. But
the sculptor evolved the idea of pre-
senting the statue within an arch, rep
resenting the proscenium of a stage,
making a construction much more elab-
crate than was originally contemplated.
The fear that the arch would tend to
belittle the statue and other differences
have led to friction which eliminated
in the withdrawal of the sculptor from
the completion of the commission. But
hopes of harmony are not abandoned,
and the Hamlet of Shakespeare and
Booth, delineated by MacMonnies, may
yet adorn the park which faces the
home of The Players which the great
actor ounded.-Brooklyn Standard
