screaming for the door. In their flight sew

The Grave of Mary Washington.

A Fredericksburg, Va, letter to the
Richmond Dispatch says: Just above
the plain in the suburbs of Fredericks
burg. is the grave OF Mary Washington,
marked now by an unfinished marble
monument. 1t is strange that the
tomb of the mother of the Father of
His Country should be allowed to stand
a monument to the lack of patriotism
of his countrymen. Worse still, it has
been shamefully defaced by the hands
of the vandal. Its sides have been
marred by bullets, and the pretty
smooth face of the monument peppered
by the shot of thoughtless sportsmen.
No railing or enclosure of any sort
protects the last resting place of this
great and good woman, and yesterday
the unthinking excursionist hid him
self under the shadow of the monu-
ment, ate his snack and desecrated the
sacred place by leaving the rinds of
watermelons and the refuse of the re
past lying loosely around the tomb.
The monument was undertaken in
1880 by a patriotic gentleman of Fred
ericksburg, who had completed it with
the exception of the large pyramidal
shaft, which to-day lies half imbedded
in the ground a few yards from the
grave.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

The right of commanding is the
fruit of labors, the price of courage.
Man cannot dream himself into a
noble character; he must achieve it by
diligent effort.
If we find no fault ourselves, we
should not take pleasure in observing
those of others.
Those who have no patience of their
own forget what demand they make
on that of others.
There is no evil we cannot either
face or fly from, but the consciousness
of duty disregarded.
More helpful than all wisdom is one
draught of simple human pity that
will not forsake us.
Let friendship creep gently to a
hight; if it rush to it, it may soon
run itself out of breath.
A firm faith is the best divinity; a
good life the best philosophy; clear
conscience the best law; honesty the
best policy, and temperance the best
physic.
The law of the harvest is to read
more than you SOW. Sow an act and
you reap a habit; SOW habit and you
reap character; SOW a character and
you reap destiny.

In the spring of 1880 the ground

now stands was a marsh intelsected by
irrigating bitches, To-day there stands
on this ground bustling city of over
5000 people. 1t is in Bernalillo coun-
ty, about $50 miles from Kansas City,
and is the eastern terminus of the At
lantic and Pacific railroad. The city is
named in honor of the Duke of Albu-

querque, situated about one mile and
half distant, was one of the early Span
ish settlements. The proper pronun-

and the people of this part of the coun-

West, except Leadville, has developed
more rapidly. The county has 3,000,-
