to the confedcracy, is 16 miles FROM.
Atlanta. Ga. 1T will eibe the largest
monument in the world. The space
covered will be about 500 feet high

then aged 8S years, a leader Of south-
ern women, sent for Gutzon Borslum,
sculptorN to go to Georgia to consider
the feasibility of a great s%culptural
monument to the confederacy on the
wall Of the mountain. Mr.. Borglun1
made a careful study of several plans.
The plan adopted represents an army
marching into battle. 1t will comprise
portraits of all the Confederate lead
ers.
Gutzon Borglum was born in Utah
in 1863. He studied in the Cincinnati
Art school and in Paris. He has made
a speciality in his work of life in the
west, where he has lived much among
cowboys and Indians. In Oskaloosa,
Iowa. Is a statue of an Indian chief,
the work Of Mr.. Borglum. and in
Prescott, Artz., is THE Rough Rider"
an equestrian statue. 1t is supposed to
depict the figure of Captain o'Neil OF
Colonel Roosevelt's Rough Riders. In
Newark. N. j., is his statue of Lin
coin. and in the Metropolitan Muse
