COI08& < 11 Wooden Likeness of First President 10 , It la Claimed by the Owner , One Hundred Years Old , Now York.-Evory now and then " relic or rovoluUonary t1mos of which little bas been heard comes to the pub. IIc noUce. In the possession of a Harlem tobacco denier Is a colossal i wooden statue or George Washington. : 'l'he owner , Joseph Liebman , says It Is 100 years old. In the colonlnl days there was a BtatUe of King George In nowllng Green lmrk. Atter . the struggle for Independence IbIB statue was ro- 1)laced by ono of George Washington. It. was oC berolc size , nnd according to the InCormaUon obtained by Mr. Lleb. man It waa the firBt statue of George Washington erected In this country. The statue Is nine Ceet fi\'e Inches tram the base to the top and weighs 800 pounds. Gen. Washington Is wearing the conUnental unlCorm- long blue coat with brass buttonB , bul'f ' breeches and riding boots. The rlgbt arm IB extended and the left , carr'lns , his hat , Is resUng on his hip. On the right sldo Is a fob nnd watchchaln. Mr. Liebman bils looked up the history - tory of the statue , and he says that It was put up In 1792. It stood tor 43 years , wben It was decided to make some Improvements In the park. The city ofilclals looked over the statue nnd decided tbat It was too old"fash- loned and not dignified enough tor tbe city becnuse It wall of wood. As a result It wns sold at auction to a Ir. Jacques. a collector of things of the revolutlonnry pOI'lod. He paid $250 for It and scnt It to South Norwalk , Conn. , where It remained unUI he died , In 18GO , when It wns sold again , The purchaser this Ume was Antonio Decorate , who lived In this clt ) ' , but eventuall ) ' It fell Into the hands of Frnnk Theobold , the tobacco dealer. Mr. 'l'heobold sold his bushwSR to Mr. Liebman , and with It went the statue. Its present owner puts a high value on It. He says It Is worth $5.- OOG-at least he haB been tel thut by persons who profess to have some knowledge at the subject. Mr. Lleb. man sa's ho has been advised by Dr. Kelley or the City HIstory club to bold on to the statue , as It Is sure not to depreclr.to In value ( rom the collec. tor's stnndpolnt. During tbe centennial or 1889 It hnd a place on the temporary arch at Washington square. It Is a fine : > Io < : e of work and It was admired by thou. sands. It would ha\"o gene to the Chicago - cage world's fair had these In charge or the nrra.ngements here known at Its exlstenco In time to send It. At tbo Ume Senator Depew sent a letter sa'lng that he did not find out about the stntuo until too late to have It sblpped. Mr. Liebman has made many Inquiries - quiries from the Sons of the Revolu. tlon and the Colonial Dames about the statue. He Is not rich , he says , and be finds that tbo compeUtion In his trade Is prett ) ' stiff , but he Intends to bold on to tbe statue. SPARKING STARTS THE GUNS. , Comedy of Errors In Courtship Almost - most Prove ! : Tragedy. Wllllamsllort , Pa-A comedy or errors came near ending In a tragedy at Iontoursvlllo. Constables Rogers and Shlrm at midnight were spooking nround the houses In search of a tra ! plsh-looklng stranger , wbo tbey bellevml was a burglar. Edward Wadsworth , of Galeton , a school teacher , who had come to town during the day , was spending the evening - ning with his sweetheart. They saw the constables sneaking aroqnd and I thought they were burglars. Wadsworth said he would watch them. He followed" The constables snw him sklppln ; Crom out at one dark corner Into anotber.

Is Started Decause Warden of Instltu. tlon Likes to See Things Grow- Welcome Change In Con. vlct Fare. Jefferson Clt ) . , Io.-Truck garden. Ing on a large scale has become ana o ( the features or the management at the Missouri penitentiary , under Matt W. Hull , who Is a { nrmer wben not In the public service , anli bas the Inborn deslro of all farmers to see U\lngs growing around him. On what Is known as the hatate farm" bo has this year produced a tremendous amount o ( garden stul'f of all kinds , all or which Is utilized on the prison table , affording a very welcome nnd health. ful change of menu { or the convicts. The "state farm" consists of 47 acres at land. Part of It hns been cut away In supplying clay tor the prison brlck'ard , part Is utilized as a pas. ture , and about 14 acres are Ulled for the prison garden. Some Idea or the magnitude or the output at the prison garden can bo gained by the statement that 470 bush. cIs ot "snap" beans have already been Ced to the convicts this senson. It takes 70 bushels to go around at. one meal In the prison dining room. On threc-quarters or an acre ot gruund 2G,500 pounds of cabbage have been cut this season. This is not all at the cabbage crop , but. this was an early and unusually proll c "patch. " There are sevornl acreB more or the garden In cabbage. Onions to the amount. ot se\"eral hundred bushels , besides so\'eral meals at young onions , served early In the spring , radlsbes , rbubarb and other stuff were grown In the greatest abundance. The pride at the warden and bls sue perlntendent , John Brumer , centers , however , In the tomato crop. Eleven thousnnd seven hundred vines , cover. Ing something over three acres of ground , are In Cull ( rult , nnd ) 'Ield now something like 40 bushels per day. A more welcome addition to Ute prison faro tban sliced tomatoes could not be. supplied. The crop Is exceedingly i prolific and fine this season , and the vines w1lteep \ ) on bearing until frost. Col. Hall figures on having enougb sreen tomatocs to pick late In September - tember to make several bogsheads of "cho ebow" and other pickles to add to the prison luder. The garden lies on top oC some o ( tbe high bluffs overlooking the Missouri - souri river. The land orlglnall ) ' was not the best , but bas been brought tea a high state of productiveness 'by ( er- UllzaUon. Six or eight crippled and superannuated com'lcts are employed In the garden under the sUllervlslon or Ir. Drumer. It Is tbo Intention of Warden Hall to put In next spring a small berd o ( cows for the purpose or supplying milk and butter tor the prison has. pltal. They will be kept In connecUon with the garden and w1l\ \ work a considerable - siderable saving to the state , as the milk and butter supply ( or tbe bas- pltal now costs something like six dol. lars per day.

" PRESCRIP1'ION II LATIN. The Public Should Have Them Trans. lated by the Druggists , What virtue Is there In tbe secrecy with which tbe doctor hedges about. , his profession ? "Professlonul etiquette" occupies a prominent place In the curriculum of every medical scbool , and when strictly - ly analyzed "proCessional etiquette" 8eems to mean "doing wbatls best ( or the doctor , In1l\'ldually and col. lectlvely. " . Among the things that "Is best. tor the doctor" is tbe writing of his proscriptions - scriptions In LaUn , and thus Iteeplng the public In Ignorance not on I ) ' of wbat It Is taltlng for Its Ills , but Corc.
