Brilliant orators from several state will participate In the exercises ami one of the largest gatbertugs ever attewUng the dedication of a Southern memorial Is expected to be preweut on the occasion. From every part of the country, north, south. east aud west, will eome the pilgrims to tills u- cred shrine of valor to pay homage to the memory of the men in gray. There Is source a community in the South that did not lose men iu the fniuou battle. The monument will cost $jO,OUO. The great organization known as the L'uited Daughters of the Confederacy, the largest association of wouu-u in the world, it is said, with the exception of the W. C T. C is resMnsible for its erection. The completion of the enterprise, for which the Daughters have worked untiringly for many years. marks the realization of one of tbeir most cher ished dreams. The Shiloh memorial will have the distiuctiou of being the only one ever erected to the Confed eracy as a whole. Every Southern state con tributed liberally to the enterprise, although Ten nessee gave the largest amount, for not only will the beautiful monolith rise upon her soil, hut she lost more men In the famous battle than did any other state. The well-known sculptor, Frederick C. Hil hard of Chicago is responsible for the exquisite work and design of the Shiloh memorial, and his attractive atelier In the Northern city presents a busy scene at the present time, for the artist has promised the Daughters that by the time the Great White Spirit takes up the peace pipe to breathe Indian summer's smoke across the purple hilltops of Tennessee the marbles will be packed and ready for shipment. The monument design, acknowledged as one of the most striking ever conceived by this artist, comprises three groups upon a base of artistic proportions. It is fashioned of Mt. Airy granite from the famous quarries of North Carolina. The panel heads are done in alto-relievo. The heroic figures comprising the central group are nine feet high and represent Victory, defeated by Death. The female figure of Victory is seen re linquishing; a laurel wreath to one of the two cowled figures of the Grim Reaper. Confederate soldiers, a private, an officer, artilleryman and In fantryman, make up the end and lesser groups. The story of. the beginning of the movement to erect the Shllob monument is Interesting and In spiring. It was with a little group of Hardin .county women, la Tennessee, thst the Idea originated. The leading spirit of the enterprise was Mrs. Cor nelia Broylea Irwin, wife K Cspt. Jame W. Irwin of 8arannah. who commanded company of Har- lin county hoys at the battle of Shilolu It was largely due to Mrs. Irwin's enthtrsiasm that the movement was successfully launched. The first published article regarding the project of build ing a monument on Shiloh battlefield to the sol diers of the Southern army was written by this lady ami appeared In the Confederate Veteran in 10O1'. The late Sumner A. Cunningham, editor of the Veteran, was one of the most interested workers for the enterprise and wrote numberless articles dealing with Jhe subject. The first con tributor to the Shiloh monument fund was Mr. .Tneohus S. Jones of Washington, D. C. At n national meeting of the V. D. C. held at Gulfport. Miss., in lflOrt, a Shiloh monument direc tor for each Southern state was appointed, and Mrs. A. B. White of Paris, Tenn.. was made di rector general of tm entire work. This office ' Mrs. White has held ever since. The successful nirminntfon of the work Is largeTy due to her enthnslnsm and fine management. A sister work of the ShIToh memorial was the erection tij the TT. D. C of the benutlfnl Con federate monument In Arlington cemetery a few years ago. Th cost of both memorlnTs was the same. $.Kum. The unveiling of the Arlington monument took thousands of interested specta tor to the national cemetery from all parts of the cunntry. The address of President Taft, on this occasion, attracted the attention of the whole country for Its notably generous spirit and sym pathetic understanding of the attitude of the Southern people toward their before dead who fell In the storm of the sixties. Shiloh Military park, which takes In about ten acres of the battlefield, lies Jut off Pittsburg landing on the Tennessee river and only a few mites from Corinth, Miss. The cemetery con-" tains more than a hundred handsome monuments erected hy Northern states to the Federal dead. The states of Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa. Pennsyl vania and Indiana have spent more than $20,000 on monuments and markers. Well-kept gravel walks wind In and out among the glistening marbles. The roads stretching to Corinth are the same over which the , Confederates traveled after the hattle of the second day when the forces were outnumbered by those of Buell and Orant. " Points of particular Interest in ShIToh National Military park are the portion known as the "Hornet's Nest," where the conflict waged fiercest; the famous "Bloody Pond," whose wa ters were crimson with the blood of the Con federates; the noted spring which quenched the thirst of the wounded; the site of the tittle log meeting house, whose sides were spattered with blood and which gave Its name to the battle that raged around It And then there are the many beautiful monuments erected by tne gorernmeat. The Confederate dead lie In six trenches,' the only markers being a cannon baX at head' and foot. Only three monuments In the entire park' are to Southerners: One to the memory of the Second Tennessee (Bate's) regiment, and monu ments built by the C. D. C. of Arkansas and Ala bama. The government erected a monument at' the spot where Oen. Albert Sidney Johnston died; as a marker for a historic spot. Nearby Is the oak tree nnder which the great leader received' his death wound. The Inscription on the monu-' ment reads: GEN. ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSTON. COMMANDING THE CONFEDERATE ARMY, DIED HERE AT 2:30 O'CLOCK P. M.. APRIL 6. 182. Mocking birds and thrushes sing today over the green acres that once presented a seene of devas tation and death. It Is difficult to realize- that here on this stretch of meadowland. where nod the goldenrod and wild hyacinth, once was plied high with the bodies of the dead. However, In the minds of many who attend the-unvelllng of the memorial to- the heroes In gray, the white haired survivors of that conflict, only too vividly will the picture come back. But then, "to live In hearts we leave behind is not to die." Rare Old Stuff From America South A rare collection of archeologtcal objects from th department of lea, Peru, was recently pur chased by Mr. A. J. Juilliard and presented to the American museum. This collection represents the results of numerous expeditions during the last nine years by Mr. Manuel Montaro to the desert regions to the south and west of lea. These Ttslts to the prehistoric Buriar grounds were his Taca tlons, and every object In the collection was exca vated by him. The most notable objects are nto large shawllike garments covered with conven tional figures in embroidery. The beautiful color, schemes seen In these textiles make them a Joy to the artist, and they will doubtless be copied eag erly by the numerous art students, who make con stant use of the American museum collections. Besides these shawllike garments there are many smaller pieces of cloth which are highly orna mented. . .. The metal work of these ancient people is rep resented by objects in silver and copper. There are several pairs of large silver ear plugs, orna mented with embossed figures of birds, ' silver tweezer also ornamented' with raised bird figures, and several shawl1 pins with finely executed figures of birds and pumason the upper ends. The other b Jeets la the collection consist principally ot the women's workbrakfts, with -spindles and rarioua colored threads, av loom', with, cloth- ifl process of wearing' feather bAimeutt, flJnxMnsical lastra tnaots as lew choice- pieces, of pottery. v.
