Keepers have Systematically maze morn
ing rounds to Gil their buckets just before
the removal OF the kegs by the brewers
wagons, and this sloppy stuff was subse
quently retSileG TO the most miserable Of
drinkers at lie. per glass. Now vinegar

and wagons provided with tanks go over
systematically arranged routes every

THE GRANT MONUMENT FUND.
/ The project OF great fair for the Grant
/ Monument Fund has been all but aban-
/ dOned. though the Madison Square
/ Garden has been Professionally secured
for the purpose. ". II. Vanderbilt has
thus tar declined TO contribute, saying
that he would not DO so until he saw
some dedniteness IN the project. He is
building a mausoleum for himself that
will cost a quarter Of a million, but he is
inclined think that the Grant Memorial
structure ought TO be public institution
OF some sort. But when a member OF the
committee applied TO him for the garden,
which belongs to his railroad company,
he ordered tnat an option OF month in
Guiding the holidays, be given, and as ne
refused 10 fXa price, saying only, "Oh,
there'll be no quarrel about the rent" IL is
assumed that he means to take nothing.
Ihat would be equivalent to a gift OF
S2O,00O But the responsiveness among
fashionable women is slight and cool.
The Grant family never mingled in their
social circles. and consequently there is
no ieeliRg OF personal interest. The good
excuse for relinquishing the scheme is
found in the refusal Of the fire insurance
companies to issue policies adequately
protecting such a collection of pic
lures AS was contemplated. In
last winters notable exhibition of
paintings IN the Union League Club, fire
companies consented to divide among
them risk Of $500, 900 in addition 10 the
5000, 900 already covering the house and
usual contents. They were frightened By
the venture, and have since resolved to
limit the policies on art shows to 500, 900
The owners OF treasures, reluctant under
any circumstances to lend them, cannot
be asked to do so without full insurance
This fact is made the ostensible reason for
giving no Grant fund fair.
