I The idea of a nnonum ent on the bat tIefield was preached in the follow ing year by Ernst Moritz Arndt, and found support from a number of sian diplomat. An Organization was formed at Leipsic to keep alive the memory of the battle, but king in captivity furnished grounds for aban- doning the movement. The monu- ment idea came up from time to time in the succeeding years. and in 1863, on the dftieth anniversary of the battle, the foundation stone of a. mon | ument was laid.
 Then came the wars of 1864, 1866 and 1S7O-71, and it remained for the German Patriots Association, formed i in Leipsfc in 1894, to take the mat ter up and carry it to a successful conclusion. Four years later the necessary money had been raised, a design by Professor Bruno Schmitz had been accepted, and the first sod was turned for the work on October IS, 1898.
 The monument stands on a hill about 100 feet above the level of the surrounding country. It is approach ed by a flight of 110 steps hewn in granite. On the base of the monu- ment at the head of the stairs is an imposing relief, 1SO feet long and SO feet wide, the work of Christian Beh- rens. In the center of the relief is a heroic figure Of Saint Michael. On each side of him Furies with torches hover over a battlefield strewn with dead. Above, in letters six feet high, is the motto of the anti-Napoleon warriors: stGott Nit Uns'' God with us).
 The monument rises to height of nearly 300 feet. It is of reinforced concrete, faced with porphry. On the ground level is crypt, surrounded by by eight gigantic stone masks, repre- senting fate. In front of each mask stands two warriors, twice life size, holding the death watch. Above this crypt is a rotunda, enclosing the Hall of Fame. About the walls sit four figures, two male and two female, seven times life size. They repre- sent. Courage, Sacrifice, Exaltation and Belief. The figures are the work of Professor Franz Metzner.
 Around the outside of the doned cupola which surmounts the monu- ment stand twelve gigantic warrior figures. The interiors of three of them are occupied by winding stairs and an elevator. giving access to bal cony near the top of the monument.
 One striking thing is noted in con- nection with all the statues; not one represents any prince or sovepeden.

EMTSSARY
 OF WALL STREET
(From The Montgomery (Alabama)
 Advertiser.)

We do not know Congressman Donovan, who causticaIly criticised Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson; But he must be an emissary of Wall street, a tool of the liquor trust, a. mendacious slanderer, a participant in the conspiracy to beat Hobson for the Senate, and above all else he must be a reactionary.
 If he were not all this and more he would not islander that industrious, hard working statesman from the Sixth, whose devotion to his Congress sional duties should be an inspiration to his fellow members who spend their duties delivering ctautauqua, lectures, and making campaigns, two years long, while Congress is in ses- sion. The minute that MT. Donovan opened his mouth in criticism of that great and good man from the Sixth District, he became an enemy of all morality and every aspiration of the human heart.
 Captain Hobson dropped his cam paign for the Senate, which he has been making for nearly two years, to hurry back to Washington to de- liver today a reply to the doughty Donovan. We can readily believe that it will be sprinkled with epithets and charges. But is that a reply to the accusation that he has grossly neg Iected his duties in Congress and that he has been repeatedly absent from his seat in Congress? What reply can be made except to abuse the man who reminds Captain Hobson and the country of his absenteeism?

brated it's birthday by issuing a spe- ciaI edition. The home of La Prensa is a magnificent structure which cost over six million dollars, veritab1e palace. In addition to the newspaper plant, the building contains a beauti- full salon where all the great guests of the nation are received, and suites of rooms, handsomely furnished for the stay in the city, The philanthropfc work of the newspaper is carried on in the most modern fashion There is free clinic where poor patients may receive treatment from one of the doz- en physicians employed by the paper, and in serious cases, from the best specialists in the city, who are called in consultation. The indigent may also receive, gratis, legal advice from the best attorneys of Buenos Ayres The paper also conducts a scientific bureau, a school of music, g museum of natural products, a weather bureau an art school. and an agricultural re- search department. In the building are several halls for popular assem- plies. La Prensa also makes annual awards of hero medals, and engages i na. thousand other movements for the pubIIc veal. As a. newspaper, La Prem sa Is by far the most cosmopolitan in the New World. It maintains corres- ponderlts in all the capitals and no North American Journal approaches It in extent of cable news.
 While La Prensa is the admitted leader of South American journalism, it has many influential rivals. La Nacion Is the organ of the wealthy conservatives, and La Argentina, an enetrprising and progressive journal of large circulation. El Razon ana E Dfarfo are up-to-date afternoon papers, and there are also two dailies published in the English language La Prensa has remained the paper, how ever. and, despite it's huge expenses and manifold activities, makes a m11- lion dollars a year for it's owners
 Rio de Janeiro has two great news papers in the Journal de Commerce and the Journal de Brazil, but neither has anything like the circulation or influence of La Prensa. Both have fine buildings on the beautiful Aven- ida Central, and have followed the example of La Prensa in the matter of public service.
 In Chile. the newspaper field is dom mated by Fl Mercurio, published in both Santiago and Valparaiso. Lima and Montevideo also have important and modern newspapers, but in the re- nainder of the South American capi- tals journalism is still in a backward state, and the newspapers have chang ed little in a hundred years. The leading journal of Caracas Is largely filled with contributions from local poets and essayists, and news is of secondary importance

Towering Monument Marks Field Of The
 'lBattIe Of Nations
Imposing Ceremonies in Con- nection With Dedication of Shaft on Centenary of Napo- Icons Defeat.

I,eipsic. Germany, Oct 18.-On the field of the Battle of the Nations, ' where just one hundred years ago the defeat of Napoleon by the Allies v1r- tuaIly resulted in the liberation of Germany. there was dedicated to-day one of the most imposing battle mon urnents in the world. The ceremon- ies were notable even in this year of historic anniversaries in Germany.
 The sovereigns of Austria, Russia, and Sweden, the nations that fought with Prussia to break the power of Napoleon in Germanic Europe. sent their personal representatives, and all the federated princes and mayors Of the German Empire were present. Their host is King Frederick August III, of Saxony, sixth in line Of direct descent from that King Frederick Au- gust I who fought with NapOlean against the Allies; whose troops de- serted to the Allies on the decisive day, and who himself, vainly appeal ing for terms, was taken to Berlin and kept virtual prisoner for three years.
 The structure dedicated is to-day by far the largest and highest in Europe It stands just south of Ieipsic, near Probstheida da, the village out of which the Allies drove Napoleon on October IS, 1913, the decisive day of the Battle of Nations The fight had then raged TOT SIX odyS between the Austrians, Prussians, Russians and Swedes on the one side. and the French, aided by the Saxons and Wurttembergers on the other, when the deciding day. came. On the fol- lowing day Napoleon abandoned the contest, leaving behind 78,000 of his army of 1900 men, 15,000 of them dead. The Allies, at a loss of 51,00O from a total strength of about 300,- 900, had made Germany free from foreign domination to the banks of the Rhine.

Biloxi, July 15.-Mrs Anna Alveles,
the lS-year-old bride of Louis Alveles,
an employee of the Gulfport and Miss.
Coast Traction Company, died this
morning at one O'Clock as the result of
fatal does of carbolic acid which
the young women drink yesterday after
noon at 1880 O'Clock.
The first inkling anyone had of the
tragedy was when the young bride call

sob, have taken poison. Help. y
When the girls grandmother, who
was alonein the house with her reached
her side, she was wrthing in agony
from the effect OF the fearful burns from
the acid. In her horrible agony she
was utterly unable to speak coherently
or to tell anyone whether she had taken
the poison with suicidal intent or not.
No cause can be ascertained why The
comedy and attractive young woman
should have wished to end her life
She had been married only seven mo-
nths and to all appearances was happy
and contented with her husband who

In the thirteenth and fourteenth
centuries in Paris the wine of Mont-'

the Apache, takes its name from the
Montmartre wine Of the best qualty.I
In fact, this particular vintage was
40 renowned that it was the customI
for Paris to present four casks Of itI
TO the king Of France on each nnni-1
versary of his coronation. In 1214
an international wine exhibition was
held in Paris. Spain, Portugal,
Greece, Italy and France sent their
best vintagcs.
The reigning king, Philippe Au-
gustc, presided himself over the
judging committee, and after fair
and exhaustive test the jury declared
the wine of Cyprus to be king of the
wines, the Malaga was proclaimed
viceroy, and the Goutte dor vintage
was one of the three dukes, the others
being the Malyoisie and the Alicante.
II was this very success Of the wine
Of Paris which worked its downfall.
Those who had hitherto cultivated
other crops decided to grow nothing
but wines in future, and planted
them unfortunately, without re-
gard TO the nature of the soil. The
result was gradual degeneration In

their lost reputation the cultivation
