IMPROVEMENTS AT OAkpALE.-For some
tune past the Cemetery Board have been
determined to improve the approaches to
the cemetery grounds, and during the past
two weeks have been carrying their plans
into effect. Z. W. Baker, with consider
able force Of men and teams has been work
ing wonders out there. The Se1tion's
house has been moved along to the north
and placed on solid foundation near the old
snteranes. A new entrance road was then
started at the south-wsst corner Of the
grounds. and = twenty I've feet roadway,
graded t, the old bridge across the slough,
where il crosses on . fine stonc culvert,
about Eve feet higher than the old bridge !;
thus making the ascent Of the hill much
more passable than before. Tho new cul-
vert is thoroughly founded with cut stone
arches, surmounted on either side OF the
roadway with heavy caping, pierced with
three marble posts connected by wire rods
for guard railing. 1t is very fne piece of
work and adds greatly to. the appearance
Of tho grounds. About ono hundred and
City feet from the bridge, the road divides,
passing to the right and left. and BY easy
grade makes the ascent to the top Of the
cemetery grounds each roadway being
the same width as at the bridge. The gra
ding will require another days work,
after which these newly made roads will
be covered for ten feet in the centre With
ak inches Of macAdam thus making .
'0hd and permanent track from the gate

Meeting Of Grain Dealers.

Meeting Of Grain Dealers.
A meeting composed Of about thirty Of
tho Grain Merchants of this city, and
others interested indirectly in that traffic,
me. at Lahrmann's Hall last evening at
o'clock, for the purpose Of taking some
steps with reference to. the refusal Of the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific r. r. Go.
to furnish any more cars for the shipment
Of grain to be loaded upon the track, and
to discuss matters generally connected with
this order.
On motion Of Mr.. Koester, B. s. Glaspell
was called 10 the Chair, and Henry Haak
was appointed Secretary.
The Chairman stated the object Of the
meeting to be to obtain some concert Of &C.
ton among thc grain merchants Of the city
relative to the unfriendly order issued BY
the railroad company, which compelled the
great bulk Of grain buyers to do their busi-
ness through the Elevator, or to do no busi
ness at AL.
This meeting was then addressed BY
Messrs. Lemme, Koester, Sherman, Claus
sen and others, upon the condition Of af-
fairs into which they had been thrswn by
the sudden order Of the railroad company
The spirit of the meeting WAS decidedly
opposed to being forced to ship their grain
throu IN the Elevator. The railroad con-
pany was considered common carrier, and
no good reason could be seen why it should
refuse to receive grain On the same footing
with humber or other merchandise.
Ga motion, q committee Of Ave, consist.
ing Of Thos. Scott, Aug. Stefsn. b. Haak,
E. CIsusscn and +. Hickman, was appsiat.
cd to confer with the railroad authoritiss
and report st . subsequent meeting.
On motion, the meeting adjourned "a
meet on Monday, September IA. at
o'clock, At Lahrmann's Hall. to which ths
farmers Of the county ere invited.

The HAIR.-The ordinary length
of the hair of the head in women
varies from twenty inches to a
yard, in some instances longer even
than that; but they are Of unusual
occurrence its weight is from five
to eight ounces. A contemporary
relates an instance where the hair
of a lady's head attained the meas
urement of two yards in length.
But it's proper length for texture
and strength should not exceed
.twenty-four inches, and it's value
as long hair is much deprecated
in price when it falls shorter. It
has been calculated by Withof that
the beard grows at the rate of a
line and a half per week, which
gives a length of six half inches
in the course of the year, while for
9 man of eighty years twenty-seven
feet would have fallen before the
razor. u@ ..H f.. .... ..as
We are informed that the beard
Of the Burgomaster, Hans Stein
ingen, was SO long that upon one
occasion, having forgotten to fold
up the same, he trod on it as he
assembled to the Council Chamber
at Brunn, and was thereby thrown
down and killed. And still further
we may cite from Eble that at the
Princes Court at Eldam there Is 4
full length painting of a carpenter
whose beard was nine feet long. SO
that when engaged at work he was
Obliged to carry it in a bag. AT the
industrial exhibition of 1862 there
were exhibited specimens of human
hair taken from English, French
and Italian ladies, the longest spe-
clmens having been cut from one
OF our own countrywomen. 1T was
q lock OF jet black hair and meas
ured seventy-four inches in length.

How TIMES AND MIN CHANGE.
Several years ago q certain young
United States officer was Wild
and as unpopular among his army
comrades as he was reckless. Du-
ring the great Crystal Palace eX-
hibftion In New York city, he dis
tinguished himself by riding q
horse into a hat store, and per-
formed several other feats which at
last brought him to a court mar
tial. The court assembled at For
Fress Monroe, the officer was tried
and the finding given, but not pub
ished-" guilty Of conduct unbe-
coming an officer and a gentle
man" Informed of the finding,
and anticipating its approval, the
Captain, for such he was, went at
once to Washington, called upon
the Secretary of War, and made a
frank statement of the case. He
acknowledged his fault, but said
that if punished by the court in
the manner he expected, he would
be forever disgraced. In considers
ton of his position as an officer,
and the circumstances connected
with his family, he begged permits
sion to resign. The Secretary of
War informed him that such a
thing as a resignation after'charges
had been preferred was unheard
of in the annals of military law,
and contrary to the rule and prac-
tice of the service. But the officer
begged on, and finally the Secre-
tary yielded ; the resignation was
allowed and the soldier became a
civilian and clerk. That officer
was General Ulysses S. Grant, and
the Secretary of War ex-President
Jefferson Davis. # "'
