MacMonnies's Work Is to
SuppIant Iron Basin.

The forlorn iron basin which has been
trying to palm itself of for fountain
In front Of City Hall is at last to be
replaced by the honest TO goodness
fountain which was designed long ago by
Frederick w. MacMonnies. and which
local art societies have been Directing to
for one reason or another.
Their objections have melted away,
and Il will not be many months before

mobile at A. VI. to grapple with the

able to get a good eyeful of inspiration
from the sight of the fine young male
figure which the artist made to typify
civic strength and virtue for Father
Knickerbocker.
The basin OF the fountain. Mr. Mac
Monies said yesterday at his home, 20
West Tenth street, will be about as
large as the basin OF the present one
and the group he designed will reach
about to the height of the old iron work
He thought. he said. that a strong and
sturdy male figure holding a sword, no,
in military fashion but a heraldic sword
was best suited for this fountain dow,
among the tall buildings that surround
City Hall. since he did not wish the
thing to be merely decorative but to
speak an allegory OF truth and justice.
He made the study In Paris and the
model was a young F'renchman. but he
had an American cast OF features, and
the figure Is said to be the very picture
OF Yankee doughboy. He stands with
one foot on rock, and at his feet two
sirens, completing the group.

An exchange OF views on prohibition
among the British passengers aboard the
Cunarder Carmania. which docked yes

sentiment against It. the principal
reason being that prohibition confiicted
with personal liberty. There was ex-
pectation on the part OF some OF the
passengers who had not been in Man

markable change in Broadway and they
asked II the town looked just the same.
