"Grant's Memorial: what shall it be?'
is discussed in the September number of
the North american Revie,o, by Launt
Tompson, Karl Gerhardt, o. l.. Warner,
and Wilson Mcdonald, sculptOrs; w.
H. Beard, painter; Calvert Vaux and
Henry VanBrunt, architects; and Clar-
ence Cook, art critic. This symposium
is sure to attract wide attention at this
time, when the desire is so general to
erect monument to Grant that shall
be worthy of the man, the nation, and
American art. The same number of the
Review contains q consideration of this
question, 'Shall our National Banking
System be Abolished?" by George s.
Boutwell,, F. j. Scott, S. Dana Horton,
and Edward H. G. Clark. "Ouida" con-
tributes an essay on "The Tendencies OF
English Fiction" J" and Elizabeth Stuart
Phelps writes on "The Great Psychical
Opportunity" But the most readable
article in the number is ex-Sergeant-at-
Arms French's "reminiscences of Fam
GUS Americans" which is series of de-
lightful anecdotes about the famous wal
senators. Mr.. French is writing a book
of these "reminiscences. If it equals this
forestallment i'm the Review, it will be
one of the famous works of modern lit
erature.

The best time to pick watermelons is
after dark. A moonless night is the
best adapted to good yield. If, how
ever, the picker is compelled to garner
the crop on moonlight night, he will
find that the melons in the shadow ofthe
fence or hedge, though not so large as
those growing in the center of the lot,
are very desirable. If the dog is allowed
to walk around in the melon patch at
nights his presence is apt to make the
melons small, sour and undesirable gen.
orally. In selecting melon be careful
to cut a small plug from it. By the
simple process Of placing this plug in
the mouth the saccharine character of
the melon can be readily ascertained.
This is a more satisfactory way than the
old fashioned process of rapping on the
rind, as the latter had tendency. to
wake the family and generally interfere
with the harvesting. Do not attempt
to carry the melon in your arms when
leaving the patch. 1t is better to roll 1t
gently under the fence, or If that is inn
possible pass it easily over to somebody
stationed on the other side. Silence is
absolutely essential to successful melon
picking.

Alleged Movement to Induce Foraker
to Withdraw. rtf


COLUMBUS, o., Aug. 14.-The follow
ing was sent last night to the Cleveland
Plain Dealer:
No matter how much of a joke the
Republican papers may try to make
about the effort to have Foraker taken
from the ticket the fact is well
known that his conduct since the NOM
inatiOn has been such that many of the
leaders think it would be safer to let
him 60 and try the second horse in the
race, whose name is bob" Kennedy,
for the reason that the last named has
but one speech that he has been making
for years, therefore he could not make
any mistakes and he would not attempt
to explain the platform on which he
and his party are standing.
In order to have thorough under
standing Of the matter Judge Foraker
arrived here this morning and the tele-
graph wires have been kept pretty
warm all day, but at late hour tonight
they were cooled off by the presence OF
Iceberg John, of Mansfield, in this city,
and the tolls were paid by CASA Doodle" !"
who also arrived. As soon as supper
was devoured they started for the COM
mittee rooms, where consultation was
held lasting until midnight.
1t was decided at the conference to al
low Foraker to make speeches at New
Lisbon and Caldwell previous to the
meeting of the State Committee next
week, and if the committee saw proper
they could then ask for his resignation
from the ticket. This being the case,
he will never come off the ticket. as
the committee belong to the Foraker
Foster combination, and that fact John
Sherman learned to his dismay, not.
lwithstanding the assurance given him
by.Charley Kartz, the celebrated school
book monopoly lobbyist. Another
fact that was stated to the sage of Mans
field was that Henry G. Greiner of Per
nv, and L. b. Wing of Newark, who
were nominated to-day for State Sena
| tors at Newark by the Republicans
were in favor of Charley Foster fol

tive places of destination, considerably

EXECUTIVE MANSION,

DEAR SIR: I have read your letter of
the 24th ult. with amazement and in
dignation. There is but one mitiga-
ton to the perfidy which your letter
discloses, and that is found in the fact
know that you confess your share in it.
Idon't whether you are Democrat or
not; but if you are, the crime which
you confess is the more objectionable.
The idea that this Administration,
pledged to give the people better gov
ernment and better officers, and engaged
in hand-to-hand fight with the bad
elements OF both parties, should be be-
trayed by those who ought to be wor.
thy of implicit trust, is atrOcious; and
such treason to. the people and to the
party ought to be punished by impris
onment.
Your confession comes too late to be
of immediate use to the public service
and can only say that while this is moi
the first time 1 have been deceived anC
misled by lying and treacherous repre-
resentations, you are the first one that
has so frankly owned his grievous fault
| lIfany comfort is to be extracted from
this assurance you are welcome to it.
| f.... Yours truly,

motest idea that his appointment was

professionally. He is scarcely a lawyer
at all, while the place will require a
good lawyer. do not wish to say more
than to put you upon inquiry. We are
friends, and do business with one an
other, and it is unpleasant to have to
say this. But it Is due your response
bility and from every one who signed
that petition. And it was signed by
many prominent men who hated to re-
fuse, and hoped and thought it would
result in nothing. l do not wish you to
take any action upon my representa-
tion, but if you wish to know the real
opinion of the signers of the petition,
cause some of them to be addressed
privately, and think they will confess
the objections to the appointment
greater than l have intimated. The
petition is signed by two Of our Su-
preme Judges (--). Let them both
be privately addressed, ifit is not too
late, and ] think you will learn the
facts. ....

SO, however, she took the road and ran
