MAGNIFICENT TROPHIES for the National Guar d Tiie Philadelphia Inquirer Pres-, ents Three Valuable Art Bron zes tor the Best Company, Troop and Battery.

The Infantry Trophy is a forceful •reation, in rich bronze, of a Xorimu ireher, the infantryman of the array if that day. The pose of the figure s very striking, the body of the sold er being inclined as the tense muscles lraw the barb of the arrow to the ;hin, and the strong neck is bent, to •nahle the keen eye of the archer to sight his missile. From the base to the top of the bow the height of the ligurc is just 40 inches l'ieire Tour jueneff, one of the most noted artists >f the present school, is the author, ind the careful detail which tin sculptor has worked into this crea tion demonstrates that he was thor oughly imbued with the spirit of his work. The same artist has the credit of modeling the trophy for the cavalry, '•A Trooper of the Empire." In this, is in the "Norman Archer, v M.Tonr has again marked his artistic perception of pose. The "Trooper >f the Empire' 1 is one of that magnifi sent body of cavalry, the Hussars, ivhom Murat, the "Beau Sabre" of he First Empire, so gloriously led. Man and horse are tine conceptions in repose, and that very repose adds forcefully to the ensemble. The igure is on a base seventeen by live nches and measures twenty inches to .he top of the Hussar's aigrette. A search for something apropos \nd emblematic; for the artillery arm if the State service brought this statuette of the great captain himself, ,vho was first and foremost an artill iryman. M. l'incdo, who has made i specialty of studies of the first Em peror of t ho French, and whose noted Equestrian statue, of Napoleon adonis he French capital, is the author of his work. The Great Captain is shown in his characteristic pose, in >ne of those moments of meditation from which sprang forth projects which changed the map of Europe. This figure is twenty inches high, mounted upon an octagonal, rich rreen marble base, eight by eight nches, and bearing the imperial "N" upon its front. These trophies are to be given iu the company, troop and battery to which the inspectors give the highest rating for appearance, etc , during the encampment. There are no re strictions, the trophies being for the best units of the guard, and it is very sure that only the best units will win them. Fuller and further details will be given in The Sunday Inquirer, from time to time, until the decision is rendered. And it must be remem bered that the decision as to the best company of infantry, troop of cavalry and battery of artillery will be made by the Inspector's Department of the National Guard of Pennsylvania, of ficers of tried probity and known im partiality. Now it is lor the company, troop and battery commanders to begin work. Earnest, intelligent efforts will bring their commands within reaching distance of the valuable prizes. The men, by their attention to their duties, and their personal ap pearance and evidence of instruction unl discipline, will be the factors. So now to work. SEND UST|I A COW, J!
