"The Only Grip is the elaborated work
of Victor Herbert and Henry Blossom,
and is presented by Joe Webber, who
produced it at the Lyric theatre, New
York, where it ran for nearly one en-
tire year. The chorus, while not large,
the girls have been selected for their
distinct types of beauty, and it is said
to be more satisfying than stage full

Duncan Chandler was the architect and
Barre granite was furnished through the
Lavery Granite company. The exedra is
constructed along simple, but massive
lines, with beautiful modelled male fig
ure forming the central feature. Memo
rial connoisseurs describe it as a digni
fed and impressive monument to one OF
the greatest newspaper men OF modern !
times. The solid wall of the exedra is
without any decoration except a delicate
