ICIER, DOES THE BUSINESS! yj)IM aaaKaaB -aaaaaaal fiaaaaaaar iL ABr iBaaaaaM T1IK MONUMKNT TO HEXPHICKB. More than two years ago tlio admirer of Thomas A. Ilondrlckn raised funds for tlio urectlon of 11 monument to his memory 1 nuil tlio accompanying cut shows what (ho work (now nrarly completed) will look llku when It sliall Iki unveiled, on or ahont July -1, this year. Tim coit of tlio entire work, pedestal, statue iiud ornamuiitatloii, 1h figured at f 10,000, anil It mild that no work equal to It lias ever lieen completed for tlio sumo amount of money. The pedestal Is of Unlit coral granlto from tlio Ilavauo qtwrlcs In Italy, and It, with tlio foundations, Is Iwlng put in place under tliu personal supervision of Mr C. U. Caulluld, president of the Nuw Kngluiul Monument uompauy. The pedestal stand 011 11 biixo 29 feet Iouk mxl -1 feet wide, con sisting of three courses, forming steps ahout 12 Inches wide. In each side of tlio monument Is 11 niche, tlio 0110 lu front con taining decorations, tlio one to tlm west helng vacant, mid those to the north and south containing figures of Justice and History, Four fluted columns nro at tlio corners, each surmounted by a globe. Over these i.s tlio dome stone, hearing tin) capdlo on which stands tlio statue which rowns the work. The front ulchu hears the iiaini) Hen drleks In sunken letters. Thin Is the only inscription 011 the monument. Hcneath Is a hronze wreath of laurel and oak leaves, which Is about three feet In diameter. Tlio casting of this wreath was done at tlio Royal foundry at Rome, and the wreath Itself was a prlzoc.xhlbltluu at Paris, where the sculptor who has tlio contract for tlio wliolo work bought It. Natural leaves were used for the models. Mr. Hendricks' statue is of course thu principal thing of note In tlio monument. It is of heroic slzo and wilt faco to tlio southeast. It Is fourteen feet six Inches in height, and Is cast (an is each of the two figures of .Justice and History) In a single piece without a seam. This Is done by tlio "wax molding process," which was n lost art for U00 years, and Is now only practiced at the Royal foundry at Homo and at one lu Florence. Mi It. II, Parks, the sculptor, worked directly from the death mask and from careful measurements of thu liody of tlio Illustrious statesman, and after months of work produced n cluy model that weighed 13,000 pounds. This was put through tlio process alluded to, and tho result Is tlio statue, weighing a ton and a half, which In now being placed in position. A RELIC OF HEROIC DAYS. Tint WunliliiKtoii llpii(lqiiiirtnrs Nmr Stumllng at Moirlntiiun. Three days after tho hattlu of Princeton Washington entered Morristown, N. J., with his army On. .Ian. 7, 1777, hu made his headquarters "at the Inn of Mr. Ar- TI1K OI.II A11KOI.I) TAVKICN. nold," mid there remained until May of the same year. During that period the quaint old tavern naturally liecamu tlm center of Interest to the struggling Americans. The buildlug still stands, but not on its origi nal site. Some years ago when tlio struc ture wan offered for salo, without tho land on which it stood, Mrs. George W. Colles liecamothu purchaser and removed It to her own property, nearly a mile distant, at a cost of 812,000. It eamo Into tho market again the other day, was sold at auction nnd its future existence is a matter of doubt. The building Is an Interesting relic of the heroic days of the republic and ought to Iki preserved. Washington's bedroom, reception room and the famous ballroom whore tho patriot warriors with their wives and Hwcethearts danced tho stately minuet are intact. Indeed, some small ex penso for restoration of details would make tho building Identical In appoaranco with what It was 11 century ago. Thu Proper Way to 11 1 Glutei. A paper devoted to tho Interests of tho dry goods trade declares that tho durabil ity of kid gloves depends on how they nre put on tho first time, and advises against tho use of a stretcher. Tho expansion should Iks mado by tho hands, so as to se cure a perfect lit at every point. "Choose gloves," saj8 tho writer, "thu lingers of which correspond with yourown in length, work in tho lingers first, then the thumb, and finally smooth thom down until thoy lit every part. A glove that fits well gen erally w ears well. If tho ends do not come down well, or If they are so long as to wrlnklo, they will chafo out easily. When fingers are so small iw to need tho stretcher, the body of tho glove Is strained out In drawing oer tho hand." .V l'iMM't-iiiiiker' ltmiiiril. "(letting 11 man out of a scrupu" is gen erally a thankless job. If tho task Is under taken for a monetary tonblderatlon the troubles of the Kicemaker aro almost al waja increased. Take, for example, tho ease of Abraham Wehner, of N'ew York city. Ho undertook to settle a breach of promise suit brought against .John Fred ericks, As tho result of Ids efforts a basis of compromise was reached that Is, tho plalntlir and defendant were married, When Wehner asked a feu of tt for his .' services Fredericks responded with a punch 011 tho nose and tho renuirki "Take I Unit.
