He took away the music and told
the band TO play as much as they

THAT is how you get the real mod

He demonstrated to the pianist how

BY BILL PRICE.

The almost impossible position OF
the big iron horse in Jackson
square upon which Andrew Jackson
sits day and night in. sight of the
White House, where he served two
strenuous terms as President OF the
United States, was decided upon oy
Clark Mills, the sculptor, after years
of study and thought.
One of the oldest living Washing
tonians. an intimate friend of Clark
Mills. who often talked with Mills
about that horse and the criticism OF
it which was INDUCED in even years
before me civil war. told me some
interesting facts about the horse
and Mills the other day.
He-is William J. Frizzell, for many
wears president of the Northeast
Washington Citizens Association,
born i'm this city eighty years ago.
! His parents before him were native
! Washingtonisns.
His mother. a Miss Latham. was
| the daughter of that Latham whose
! shot is believed to have killed the
! horse upon which General Ross rode
/
/ sat fire, TO the White House. Ross
| horse was shot. from undeB the Eng
! lish. officer at Maryland avenue and
/ Second street northeast.
Cast ut the Navy Yard.
! The bronze statue. OF Jackson was
cast under the supervision of Mills
! at the Washington navy yard. and it
was cast in pieces. Mr.. Frizzell say ;.
The marble base for the monument
was brought from ajoint on the Po-
tomac river. and Mr.. Frizzell remen-
bers the difficult task OF many men
in getting the heavy base to its pres
ent site.
From the money paid Mills by Con-
gress and the Jackson Association
the sculptor, who had formerly used
small shack just south of the
Treasury for a studio. moved out the
Bladensburg road. near Langdon, and
bought what has since been known
as the Mills tract" Wills avenue now
runs through this tract. Upon this
estate Mills put up a more preten
i'tious studio and there he was Otter
visited by Mr.. Frizzell.
II was in this studio that Mills cas-
the replica of the Washington statue
flor the city of New Orleans and latel
for-the State Of Tennessee. The civil
war .interfered with the delivery
%, Of the Tennessee statue, erected al
Nashville. Both. the New Orleans anc
Nashville statues are precise dupli'
Gates of the one in Jackson Square
MI. FrizzeIl said, as he had seen botr
Of them.
5 Moreover on one occasion, when II
/ Mills studio on the Bladensburg rosc
Z AT. FrizzeIl picked up the big iror
/ boot housing the foot and part Of the
right leg Of Jackson. At least he at
. tempted to pick il up. but could no
, lift il. II was on this occasion tina
he talked for a long time with Mills
who was then constructing the New
, iOrleans statue and learned that th'
? original was cast in pieces.
In all three statues the pieces wer,
welded together in some manner Mr.
FrizzeIl did not know about
The Washington times., 1919-06-15
The Pose of the Horse.

Mills told me-" Mr. Frizzell sair.
that he studied for a long time for
the exact pose he wanted for tee
horse to carry Jackson. He had read
all he could find about European
sculpture and knew that the sculptors
of the continent had vainly tried %
cast an iron horse for conquerorS
over there that would. in a charging
position, balance without having to
be held in the desired position By
something ornamental underneath,
thereby destroying the natural effect
Mills owned a horse Of his own and
he caused il to rear in all sorts Of
positions, but II could not retain thai
position any length of time. Then
one day, looking out Of his studio
window. Mills saw the horse accom-
plish the feat he had been striving to
see.
The horse not only attained the
position OF that in Jackson Square,
but remained that way long enough
to demonstrate that il had reached a
balance. So Mills went to work upon
that and first built a miniature ami
NAL which he could carry around in
his n0eEata
The Washington times., 1919-06-15

Every time skeptical friends limited
that no had never seen or heard OF
horse in the position he was then
building the bronze animal upon
which "OId Hickory" il mounted, he
pulled out the miniature and demon
strated that it would stand alene.
owing to the perfect balance. For him

NEW YORK'S FIREMEN
IN LOYALTY PLEDGE
Look on Strike as Mutiny;
Desertion as a Crime.

The Uniformed Officers Association of
the New York Fire Department made
public last night resolutions. adopted
at recent meeting of the association,
in which the organization goes on record
as opposing any attempt to foment a
strike amc-x the firemen. The associa-
ton is col 4osed of 643 officers, of the
ranks Of @puty chiefs, chiefs of bat
talon, caprains and lieutenants, and the
resolutions declare that in view of the
prevailing industrial unrest it is neces-
sary for the department officers to
make known plainly their sentiment
relative to "this deplorable situation,
whereby the forces of public safety
have sought recourse in strike"
'The members of the uniformed force
OF the Fire Department. being public
officials serving as n force of public
safety" the resolutions continue, I'VE
believe that any attempt at an organ
lied effort on the part OF such force
to engage in strike under any cir
cumstances would be mutiny and de-
sert!on OF their posts in time of danger,
and would not only result in an undue
menace to the lives and the property of
the citizens of New York, but would also
be an unlawful proceeding and a crime
against civilization and Government.
1--WE believe that the people OF this
CITY, WHOIn we serve hS pubic EN-
ployees, shall, at all times through
their legally elected representatives
and by lawful procedure in accordance
with the provisions of the laws and
Government OF this country, provide for
the proper administration of our de-
partment, and in recognition and ap-
probation of the service we render will
at all times consider and decide with
justice all matters affecting our mate
rial conditions and welfare. Therefore.
be II
"ReSolved. That we. as officers of the
Fire Department OF the City OF New
York, hereby pledge to the officials of
the city that We shall stand faithful tO
the trust imposed in us and to our oath
of office, unswerved in our devotion to
duty as members OF the uniformed force
of the Fire Department to protect and
preserve our city and government, our
department and the lives and property
OF the community"
