Summary: Illustration shows Puck grabbing the arm of Uncle Sam who is staring in dismay at statues labeled 'Coggswell, W.H. Seward Madison Square, Admiral Dupont Washington D.C., Custer West Point, George Washington Union Square, Farragut Madison Sq., LaFayette Union Square, Jackson Washington D.C., A. Lincoln Union Square, Garfield Washington, Hamilton Central Park, [and] Bolivar Central Park', also the 'Washington Monument' as a smokestack and the 'Bunker Hill Boston' monument as an obelisk; Puck is suggesting that the New York State capitol building, currently under construction, be labeled ''Grant' Free Institute' as a fitting tribute to former president Ulysses S. Grant.
