6 THE COURIER-JOURNAL, MR. MULDOON SAYS A WORD. Tells the "Long-Suffering Publio" Why His Design Was Accepted. The Monument Ile Proposes To Build Will Not Be Copy. No "Amateurs' Employed Either As Designers Or Artists Upon the Work.

Miss Yandell and Mr. Dodd Explain Their Specifications and Cffer To Amend, HITS AT ARCHITECT DODD While the friends of the enterprise that has been undertaken by the Confederate Monument Association have been hoping that the controversy over designs would be settid amicably, and in way to leave no stings or heart-burnings behind, the parties interested in the designs so inelined to keep up the fight. It is expected that there will be a fill attendance at the meeting to-day so that, it the matter should in any way be reopened, it may be settled conclusively. Mr. M.

Muldoon whose design was accepted sends to the Courier-Journal the following defense of his own sign: I have observed a card in yesterday evening's papers from Miss Yandell and Mr. Dodd concerning the Confederate monument, in which they say: Now that the competition for this Confederate monument has reduced itself practically to a choice between our design and one ete. While I much regret this seeming necessity for newspaper controvery, I deem it my duty to myself and to the noble. women who have 80 dong labored in the etuse, to defend the design which has been accepted by them wish, however, to remark that the card before referred to elaborately describes to the public a design which, in the language of the Committee of Architects who passed upon it and rejected it, is lacking in strength, durability, harmony, dignity and grandeur. Truly severe arraignment of the design which their report is supposed to favor.

This committee of architects says further: We therefore suggest that you consult with the designers on the propriety of changing the base to gray granite and of making the shaft of one color of granite, either gray or red: and we are in doubt as to whether the monupuent can be erected for the sum named after making the modifications we sugKest. They suggest a change of base, change of shaft, a change of pedestal, and a doubt that it can be built for the money in the treasury. Could the ladies with such a report do otherwise than reject the design? It seems, also, that the names of the parties, as stated in the card, were on the drawings, whereas ours bore no name or means of identification, and the ladies who selected and voted for our design did not know whose it was. Can those who voted for the other. say as- much Now shows granite, monument, with three monze statues, executed a noted artist.

It is artistic in design finish, and is not a copy of any toutanent in America. The construction this monument according. to wellrecognized principles of monumental architecture, and the competitive sign is, as the architects have said, faulty in all. I regret exceedingly that we have obliged to resort to the public prints, but the card to which this is nature of a reply is so evidently tended to excite the sympathies of public in favor of the rejected design, and to make it appear that the good women of the association had in some been remiss in their duty to cause they have so near their hearte that deem it expedient to place matter fairly before the public. The designs as submitted were ones voted upon, and if any member the 'association could conscientiously vote for the design, criticised as it by the architects, and in the face of expressed doubt that it could be erected for the sum named, then truly con would be willing to take a leap the dark utterly careless where she would land.

A4 a mere business proposition, submitted my design and specifications, and I expected to be dealt in a business way, and not upon sympathetie or other unworthy grounds. applaud the ladies for withstanding successfully the tremendous pressure brought to bear upon them, and promise them a structure which will both be credit to. the city and to their cattse. have a reputation in the business to maintain and have never yet employed amateurs, either as artists or designers, upon any of my work. The Munich bronze statues promised upon this are the work of Fred Von Mueller, of Munich, the greatest living artist in bronze work, and name upon our design for bronze secured for us the contract for the derate: monument at Raleigh, N.

which we are now erecting at a cost $25.000. Imitations of his work could be in America at one-half his prices. I subinit the matter to the judgment of a long-suffering public, knowing well that they are by this time ready call a halt upon all of this unseemly. controversy. M.

The card to which Mr. Muldoon referred was published in the afternoon papers yesterday, and signed by Yandell and Mr. Dodd. Apparently are disposed to keep up the figlit they can. After a long introduction, admit that the criticism of the fee of architects against the proposed of Bedford limestone for the base is rect, but they defend the first tions by saying the use of granite have left them no profit.

They are willing to substitute granite without ditional change. Then they add the lowing extracts from their specifications: The plot of ground appropriated, two feet in diameter. we have considered 100 small to admit of a grass plot of tent generous enough to emphasize monument, and at the same time allow elent spread for a base of correct ticns. We have, therefore, extended base over the entire forts two feet.

Instead of a standing. aggressive attitude, suggesting the brilliant triumphs of a victor, a sitting posture has been deemed more appropriate, as expressing deep grief for a Lost which the years have sublimated into a glorified sorrow. As the tigure stoops forward she holds in her right hand a wreath of olives, gentle emblem of peace, seeming to summon the sleeping heroes, now that the hush of peace has succeeded the noise of strife, to lift their eyes and behold the true measure of values, for in the light of fame the crown is not alone to the victor, but to all noble souls who have lost self in a sublime devotion to dutyduty whose call reaches them through the voltes of loving wives, little ones and the land irradiated by the sacred fires of As she holds the wreath in her right hand, from her left there floats backward to the wind the partially furled Confederate flag. As a crown of glory awaits the heroes whose valor and bravery have transformed defeat Into victory, so their banner has been lifted from the dust, and untarnished by shame or dishonor, its bedimmed fact thrilling the memory to thoughts of those immortal souls live again in deeds sublime that pierce night like ENID YANDELL, W.

No one seemed to move during the singing of the hymn, and eyes and ears were strained intently to see and hear the excellent choir. The Rev. Dr.

C. R. Hemphill delivered the ad tress of the occasion, taking Some Temptations of the Ministry" as his subject. He pictured some of the more subtle of these temptations wherein Satan comes as an angel of light, and showed in this connection how Christian- The second year of the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary actively began last Monday, and to the fortyeight theological students now in attendance will be added live more, who will arrive in a few days. This is regarded as a remarkably suecessful record for this new institution.

Accordingly the Synods adopted a constitution, elected directors, and through these selected a facunty of six professors, and announced that toe semiaury would begin its first session October 2, 1:93.

On this day the doors of uLe institution were opened, and the session now drawing to a close has been marker by many signal expressions of God's favor and bless.ng.

The Rev. Dr. Loons offered a fervent prayer for God's blessing upon the seminary, and that the young men who were being trained for the ministry might be given Christian strength to resise the temptations that may come to them. After a hyann tad been sunz Dr. Marquess announced the number uf students for this year, and spoke brietly of the great success that has attended the seminars.

WANTED THE POCKETBOOK, TOO Jerry Lawrence, a Farmer, Robbed Eariv Yesterday Morning By a Colored Highwayman. Jerry Lawrence, a farmer living on the Eighteenth-street road, was robbed early yesterday morning by a colored highwayJuan. He was passing a brick-yard in the outskirts of the city when a colored man came out into the street and asked 10r lift." Lawrence agreed, and the can mounted the wagon and took a seat beside the farmer. After riding a short distance, the colored man suddenly drew a revolver, and, holding it to Lawrence's head, demanded his money.

Lawrence responded at once, handing over 83.35. The colored man then called for Lawpucketbook, which Lawrence also relinquished. The colored tan then snatched the whip from the wagon. Upon reaching the ground, he turned and gave the horses. three stinging lashes, which caused them to gallop.

The wagon and the farmer were quickly out of the neigh- borhood. So kind and thoughtful of you to send me this little So like you skeich. All the Clothes, all st once, makes too much of wash, perhaps. Use Pearline, and it's easy to do a few at a time. Lots of women do this.

They take the napkins, towels, handkerchiefs, hosiery, each day as they are cast aside. Soak them in Pearline and water, boil them a few minutes, rinse out--and there they are, perfectly clean. No bother, no rubbing. When the regular -day comes, there isn't much left to do. Why isn't this just as well as to keep everything and wash in one day? OVER 33.000 IN TWO DAYS.

No Doubt That the Total Registration Will Exceed 40,000. Books Closed Last Night, But It Will Take Several Days To Tabulate the Returns. Democrats Will Have Enough Votes To Completely Snow Under the Republicans Heavy Increase Tar the Voters Will Make the Division of About Fifty Precisets Necessary Next Year. SOME FIGURES ON THE LAST DAY The registration books closed at o'clock last night, and, while all of the books may not be returned by noon today, enough books have been received for the first and second registration to give a substantial basis for the estimate that the total of voters will 42,000 or over for the eits, against 31,000. and fraction at the last tration.

From the books that have been turned comparisons show that the Democrate appear to have made some gains, and that a majority of about 7,000 can reasonably counted upon, notwithstanding the assertion that many tered as Democrate but are, in fact, Hepublicana. The per cent. of Prohibitionists and Independents differs little from the former registration. It will take some time after all of the hooks are in to figure out the party affiliations of those who registered. The precinet officials simply tabulate the total preeinet registration, and to determine the relative party vote it will be necessary to check off the nance of all who registered.

A force of fifteen men 1 was put to work last night on the books at the courthouse, and six were at work in the afternoon copying the books for the Democratie Committee. About thirteen pre: cincts were then miming for the day of registration and about twenty-two precinets for the soond day of registration. These should have been returned before this according to the provisions of the law. Aside from these hissing ipeedinct books for the first and second day, the registration footed up a total of 33,1.69, whit is expected to reach over 42,000 for the three days.

The personality of the preacher, therefore, is full of gravest consequence. All revivals of religion and onward movements in this field are marked by the rise of eminent preachers.

It is to be expected that the preacher will be the object of peculiar temptations. Self-indulgence is one of the temptations which Satan presents to the preacher in a seluctive forin. Many a man is tempted away from what God has given him to do under the misguided impression that he is seeking a wider field of asefulness. The preacher is tempted to indolence. He may use his time to advantage or not, and often there is no one to call him directly to an account.

Then Dr. Hemphill spoke of the danger of preachers trying to appear something that they are not.

There was danger of their imagination leading them to believe that they were what they knew people expected them to be, whereas they were, in fact, guilty of hypocrisy. Pride lays many pitfalls for the preach- -84. Naves, was arrested yesterday by Sergi.
