Lower Level Love.
Cleveland Herald, Colorado Letter.

Both are rich, and have spent many
seasons at Saratoga; names Willie and
Minnie. The mother says they have
been engaged to each other since child
hood; that both have been reared with
care and tenderness, and though she
does say it, both are well-born," and
that the wedding ceremony will soon
take place. They live in the CITY of
Boston. The following conversation
took place between them in my hear
ing:
Minnie-I don't like mountains: they
are $3.50 big and dirty. Do you Willie
dear?
Willie-No, indeed Minnie, don't.
Great, awkward, uncouth things, and
are $3.50 much in the way, too. But
when left Boston Uncle Charles told
me [ must take you up on the top of
Pixies Peak.
Minnie-Oh, Willie, do you think |
would ride up on vulgar mule-the
idea, is so absurd-no, never, never!
Willie? I shall faint.
Willie-Oh, dear Minnie, don't faint,
/ will stay down here in this sweet val
ley with you until the others return.

The Ste Wart Crypi.

The monument which is being built at
the expense of Mrs. A. T. Stewart in
memory of her husband is to cost over
$4,000, and when completed the work
will be the most elaborate and imposing
of it's kind that can be found in any
part of the country. Work is being
pushed forward, quite number of men
being employed upon it. A few days
ago some ninety tons of fine marble, cut
by the best skilled Workmen, was sent to
Garden City, L. l.; to be placed in posi-
ton. The crypt is being built under the
chancel Of the Cath edral Of the Incarna-
ton, also being built at the expense of
Mrs. Stewart, and in the centre
will rest the body of the dead mer-
chant.
The crypt in form is a polygon with
sixteen sides, twenty-five feet IN dame
ter and twenty feet in length. Each
angle is ornamented by clustered pillars
of different colored marble imported
from Italy, and SO placed as to render
harmony and to allow of the light CIV
ing the proper tone through the sixteen
windows of stained glass. There will
be sixteen clusters, each having three
different colored marbles. Between the
pillars the space will be paneled and
carved in pure white American mar
BILE, the ceiling being of the same mate
rial
The flooring will be of white and
black Italian marble, set in pretty de-
sign. There will be two approaches to
the crypt, leading from handsome vesti-
bules, which connect with the cathedral
above.
Mrs. Stewart takes great interest in
the progress Of the work. The building
of the crypt is progressing rapidly,
and when finished will be one of the fin
est pieces of work to be found, no ex-
pense being spared in the design or ma
terials employed.
