With military rnip anil Fplemior an horoic statue of .Jeneral Philip Henry Shen-ian was un vtied In this rity today. The President of the t'nited Stat1 and members of the Oalunet. the diplomatic corjw. justices of tha Supreme tVurt of tli Iniwd States. Senators. Rf preventatives in I'nngress, veterans of the v i v-i ! War. and many oth-. r prominent In offlrlul life, as well ns a ..its concourse of citiasens. were present. Thousands of soldiers of the remilar army and of the National Guard and I'nited States marines and bluejackets from the Navy, were assembled as a tribute to t'.ie dashinjr soldier of the civil War. whose rffcv s displayed tn the public gaze for the first time in this city today. Statue t Huge Size. The statue, the work of Gatxon Borg lu in. was admired by everyone who saw It. It represents Uenernl Sheridan on horseback, his steed being shown tn a position of aotion rather than standing Vlaridly, as is the cae with eo many of the equestrian statues of t.iis city. The statue is one and three-quarters films larsrer than life, and depicts Gen eral Sheridan at the age at which he per formed hi greatest deed?. The pose is taken from the occasion when he re turned to the field at the battle of Cedar "reek. He had been defeated by General Hirly. and as he reins In his horse he turns to his men, waving hat la hand, and shouts to them to turn back. He is mounted on nis celebrated horse Rienzi. Kppecial interest was given the occa sion by the presence of the widow of the tlashing soldier, and her son, IJeutenant Phil Sheridan, of the Army. Tiie statue was unveiled by .Mrs. Sheridan herself I m lllnc th cord that held the drapery in plncc. President Kooscvelt addressed the aa "hLajM flUQd aronounced. s axdeikdid .tU ute to the valor and the military geniu; of Sheridan. Horace Porter, formerly Ambassador to Krance, also spoke in honor of the soldier and patriot, and told of his daring deeds on the field of battle. Glad to Give Honor. President Roosevelt said: It eminently flttinr that the Nation's Illustrious men. the men who loom as heroes before tha eyre of our people, should be fltiinrly commemorated here at the National capital, and I am glad Indeed to take part in the unveil In or thts statue io uenera Sheridan. His name will always stand high on the list of American worthies. Not only was he a great general, but he showed his areatness with that lourn ortcfnatlty which we call genius. Indeed, this .Quality of brilliance has been In ona sense a dfsad vantage to his reputation, fir it Iras tended to overshadow his solid abil by. We tend to think of him only as the clashing cavalry leader, whereaa he was In reality not only that, but also a great com tnander. Rom to High Position. If (s career was typtcalfV American, for from plain beclnninxs he rose to the high est military position In our land. We honor liix memory itself; and moreover, as In Iho ease of the other great commanders of his day. his career symbolizes the careers of all thoe mm who In the years or the Na t ion's direst need sprang to the front to risk everything, including life Itself, and to Send the das of their strongest young mnntuKvd in valorous conflict for an Ideal renlful was the suffering;, dreadful the I o?. of the Civil War. Yel It stands alone among wars in this. that, now that the wounds are healed, the memory of the mlrhty deeds of valor performed on ontj side no Ieis than on the other has become the common heritage of all our people In ever) quarter of this country. Divided Country Inlted. The completeness with which this Is true Is shown by what Is occurring1 here toda'. W e meet together to raise a monu ment to a crat I'nion (General. In' the prsence of many of the survivors of the Vnlon Army; and the Secretary 0f War, the man at the had of the Army, who. by virtue of his office, occupies a special relation to the celebration. Is himself a mar who fought In the Confederate service. Few Indeed have been the countries where such a conjunction would have been pos sible, and blessed indeed are we that In our ow n beloved land it is not only possible, but seems so entirely natural as to excite no comment whatever. There is another point In General Sher idan's career which It Is good for all of us to remember. Whereas Orant. Sherman and Thomas were of the old native Amer ican stock, the parents of Sheridan, like the parents of Farrarrut. were born on rh other side of the water. Any one of the five was Just as much a type of the real American, of what is best In America, aa the other four. We should keep steadily before our minds the fact that American ism is a Question of principle, of purpose, of Idealism, of character; that It Is not a matter ot birthplace, or creed, or line of descent.

INSTRUCTIONS BY COURT May Find Lamphere Burned Gun ness House, Though Woman Was Sot There, or May Convict of Murdering Family. LAPORTE. Ind., Nov. 26. The trial of Rity Lamphere for the murder of Mrs. Belle Gunness and her three children was finished this afternoon and at 5:30 o'clocmk the case was given to the Jury which at once began deliberations to de termine whether lamphere started the Are that consumed the home of Mrs. Gunness and caused the death of the woman and her children. This was the fifteenth day of the trial. The entire day was- consumed in argu ments. Mr. Sutherland opening for the state, followed by Mr. Worden for the defense. Mr. Worden. who has been Lamphere's attorney from the day after his arrest, last May, made a strong plea and State's Attorney Smith made the clos ing argument. May He Anion or Murder. The reading of the Judge's instructions. which contained 29 paragraphs, required 15 minutes. The greatest stress was laid on the following: If you should believe that these parties met death In any other way than that al leged in the Indictment, still you may find the defendant guilty of arson under this indictment provided you believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant burned the said dwelling and that the said dwelling was of the value of $20 or up ward. The Jury is Inseructed that if they be lieve, from the evidence, beyond a rea sonable doubt, that the defendant Lcm phere set fire to the dwelling- house owned by Belle Gunness, as charged in the indict ment, then you can nnd the defenda.nl guilty of arson, regardless of whether or not any human being was killed as the result of such burning. The giving of these instructions was a victory for the prosecution. The state scored another victory when it secured the incorporation In the in structions of a paragraph by which, if the J uryfinda yihat any one of the mr . persons in the house lost his or her life as a result of the fire, and that Lam phere set that fire, then it must find Lamphere guilty of murder or manslaughter.

Guilty of murder In the first degree Ufe sentence. Guilty of murder in the second degree ijjre sentence. Guilty of manslaughter. Guilty of arson. Not guilty.

MAUD POWELL PREFERS THE Steinway Piano The recital at the Heilig last evening was an artistic success. Miss Powell is a great favorite with Portland people and the sweetness of the music was enhanced by the beautiful blending of tone coloring from violin and Steinway piano. Miss Powell has written: Dear Mr. Steinway: After reading your booklet "Portraits of Mu sical Celebrities," containing- the remarkable encomiums given your pianos by the master musicians of the world, it seems difficult to pay further tribute to the Steinway. However, I want to indorse every thing said in Its praise, while as a violin player I might add. that, con sidering that an artist ought never to appear before the public except under the most perfect conditions, one of those conditions, in lieu of a good orchestra, should be a Steinway grand (for accompaniments) which by reason of its beautiful tone quality, its fullness of vibration and the perfect balance of registers, more nearly approaches orchestral support than any other piano made. Its superb blending qualities, so neces sary in association with bowed instruments, makes it Indispensable for the perfect presentation of chamber music I prefer the Steinway piano above all others and I have used It during my entire musical career. I have had both uprights and grands (some of the latter having been dose upon twenty years old), and my experience in the fundamental qualities of your pianos has been the same in all cases. ' With compliments, believe me, yours very truly, I MAUD POWELL. These superb pianos are sold exclusively by hi m4 ShermanMa7'& Co SIXTH AND MORRISON STREETS, PORTLAND, OR.
