LAWRENCE R. JEROME DEAD
The Dissolution Came Yesterday The
 Funera1--Sketch of sHis Life.

The Dissolution Came Yesterday - The
 Funera1--Sketch of iHis Life.
 SHARON, Conn, Aug. 13.-Mr. Lawrence R. Jerome died at noon yesterday. He had been unconscious since Friday nj ght, and other members of his family wero with him at the time ot his death. The funeral will take place in New York Tuesday or Wednesday.
 Lawrence Roscoe Jerome was born at Pompey Hill, Onondaga county, New York, in February, 1920 A famous remark of his used to be: "Joe Smith, the Mormon Ho- ratio Seymour and were all born in Onon- dago county"
 tered upon the study of the law at Roches- ter. He only remained year or so, and then came to New York city, where he be- came dry goods clerk
 A few years later he went into partner ship with his brother Leonard in the publi- cation of the Rochester Anserieu,., a strong Whig newspaper. Whom Fillmore became President Mr. Jerome was appointed Col lector of Customs at Rochester. When the Democratic party regained power he came to New York city and entered into the bro- kerage business in Wall street.
 MT. Jerome was an Alderman during the Tweed regime, and in 1888 was candidate for Congress against Anson G. HcCook, but was defeated. His stock speculatons were followed with success until Black Friday" came, when rything he had was swept away. After his losses James Gordon Bennett presented him with a seat in the Exchange, which he sold nine years for Stock Exchange seat
 Since then he has not engaged in any business. Mir. Jerome leaves 8 wid ow and three sons, and leaves no fortune.

BRUNO'S INTELLIGENT
How & Smart Dog Fooled His Mate sn
 Secured d Warm Corner.

How Smart Dog Fooled His Mate and
 Secured a Warm Corner.
 The anecdote in the New York Examiner, relating to 8 knowing dog who could only be unseated from favorite chair by cries of cats," and at last turned the ruse suc- cessfully upon his mistress, reminds the writer of true story told him, a few years ago. by Baptist deacon in Whitesville, N Y., which may amuse some of the younger readers:
 MT. C--was one of the early settlers of Allegany County, and while clearing up his land owned two large Newfoundland dogs. These were not permitted to come into the house except in the kitchen. In the chim- ney corner was one particular spot which in cold weather was the favorite dozing- place of the dogs. As there was only room enough for one to lie down at time, the place was greatly coveted by both, and when once in, nothing could induce the favored occupant to Vacate until he was disposed to do so. On cold day one of the dogs was asleep in this little nook. when the other came in with his master from the barn, and immediately sharp battle began for tho right of possession. The newcomer parked, bit and worried his mate, and even tried to draw him out of his snug quarters by main force, but all to no purpose. Seeing he was not likely to suc- ceed in that way, new thought seemed to strike him. for he suddenly ceased hls attack and darted for the door. Presently he re- turned with large bone in his mouth. There was no meat on the bone. It was weather-beaten and bleaGhed by exposure. and as dry as a last years stick of hickory wood; but Bruno crouched down on the floor, and began gnawing it with great appa rent satisfaction. This was too much for the cau- tion of the other. His eyes snapped; his tail twitched; his tongue ran around his jaws; and at last, unable to contain himself any longer, he made a spring for the bone, This was just what Bruno seemed to ex- pect and had planned for, because he in stantly dropped the bone and darted for the chimney-corner. And when master Jack saw how he had been befooled and turned upon Bruno, no amount of teasing or worry could induce the latter to leave the warm corner, but he held the fort successfully just as long as he chose to remain there.

WHIPPED BY MRS. "DlMPFEL.
A Would-be Rival of Mrs. Potter Obtains
 Startling Advertisement.

PHILADELPHIA, Ang. H3.-The Pres says that Mrs. Wm. O'Sullivan Dimpfel, the latest as pirant for dramatic fame recruited from the ranks of society, is i'll the city. She will make her debut in this city. She aspires to scintillate in the same galaxy with Mrs. Langtry aud Mrs. Potter, and, socially and physically, she is entitled to that distinction.
 Before tackliug the melodramatic on the mimic stage, Mrs. Dimpfel had practical rehearsal in the line of acting before leav. ing her home near Baltimore last Saturday. Mrs. Dimpfell and her husband gave 8 charming country residence at Panola, on the Fred Avon, about sixty miles from Baltlmyre. AmonS the most intimate friends arc MT. and Frs. Frederick Isaigi. The wife is an actrers and is known te theatre-goers May Stembler. The hus band is known to Baltimore club men as the Striped Turk" srsobriqueL given him from the fact that his father was for years the Turkish Minister to this country. He belongs to an aristocratic Boston family.
 MT. and Mrs lsagl were guests of Mrs. Dimpfel at their country seat. On Satur- day the two husbands drank not wisely, but too much, and at the breakfast table on the following morning MP. Isaigi rather vulgarIy attributed tue falling of Sapphira to Mrs. Dimpfel. She resented the imputa- tion and left the table. II told him." said Mrs Dim pfel with flashing eyes, ''that he forgot he was in my house under the as. sumption that he was gentleman. then went to my room when l was soon joined by my husband. We lad not been there long until MT. Isaigi forced his way into our room. My husband dld not expel him, so l took the matter into my own hands. Later he renewed his insulting language when we were down stairs, and l lost control of my temper. I snatched up riding whip and laid it across his face and shoulders to the best of my strength. I had no other alternative and do not re- gret my action.''
 That the castigation was a souud one wa. testified to by Inc victim himself He went to Baltimore immediately after leaving Mrs. Dumpfel's house and called on Mrs Oumpfel's mother, to whom he told . pitt. full story and declared that he had been whipped "without provocation. y He then visited a couple of clubs of which he ifs a member, and after repeating his story barred his back and exhibited tho scars tc the sympathetic gaze ot his companions MT. Dlmpfel is said to have sympathlzed with his thrashed friend, and as reparation offered to allow Isaigi to thrash him. The offer was declined.
 Mir. Dimpfel is large man and vel known as an athlete. He is rich, and among club men is familiarly known as "Pat " DimpfeL Re Is also calltd Erred May of Baltimore" His friend MT. Isaig is very small mrn, and for thls reason the 'ormer declares that he dld not resent the insults to his wife.
 Mrs. Dimpfel is strikingly hand some woman of about 22. She is tall, grace tul and willowy of form, and her face which Is full of character and animation, is surmouuted with magnificent head o1 bronZe-colored hair.

For a Monument to Sheridan.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-A morning paper makes the following suggestion: There have been but few suggestions In regard to a monument to Sheridan, but 1t Is hoped that the Grand Army of the Republic will move in this mStter without delay. One dollar contributed by each member of that organization throughout tho country would create fund out of which suitable memorial could be erected over the hero of Winchester, which would be an orna- mont to the beautiful city Of tue dead in which he now resides, and would substan- tialIy testify the regcrd which the ex- soldiers entertain for the foremost cavalry officer of the Union.

For the second time this season the East ern clubs have been called upon to go W1st. It Is not with the hope of carry ing out Horace Greely's advice to grow up with the couatry, but to try conclu- siors with the would-be pennant winners Of that section. The club least in coudi- tion to do this is the Brooklyn. Their see saw game of late has not been much of a stimulant to their supporters. There has been great falling off in the clubs bat ting They succeed in getting in hits enough, but they are frequently not punched together sufficiently to mako them tell in bringing men home. Again, the timely single is rarely forthcoming
 A number of games this season fell from the grasp of the "Grooms" because they were unable to get the ball safely placed when men were on bases. Their fielding is up to the highest standard. Bur- dock has proven to be the missing link necessary to complete the chain around the intield, while Radford, McClellen, O'Brien and Burns (recently released by Baltimore and signed by the Broeklyns) are not lacking in their abilities to catch, stop or throw ball or cover ground in the putHeld.

Rights of Passengers.

A passenger boarded train of the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway Company, and before he learned that he could get no seat the train was going at a high rate of speed. On his fair being de- manded the plaintiff refused to pay it unless seat was provided for him, offering, how ever, to pay if seat was provided. The Supreme Court of Minnesota held Harden burg versus the St. Paul, Minneapolis 6, Manitoba Railway Company that the pas senger had right to refuse to pay the fare, and that he did not thereby become tres passer. The Court said that 8 passenger has a right to a seat. and that railroad having the right to eject from it's train one not trespasser must do so at a regular station.

CURIOUS CEMETERY.
The Peculiar Resting-Place of the Dead
 of a Mexican Town.

The Peculiar Resting-Place of the Dead
 of a Mexican Town.
 "Don't you want to see something fancy in the cemetery hne?'
 It was MT. Williams, the United States Consul at Guanajuata, who spoke to a cor respondent of the St. Louis Giobe-DemOcrat. We were standing in front of the Hotel de la Union, and had been discussing the Ma tional Cemetery at Washi ngton.
 "Well, don't care," replied, and, suit ing the action to the word, followed him out in the street and to the place where the " burros' D were kept. We soon reached the cemetery, a half mile from the town. It is on the top of hill, and only approached on one side. From every other point you looked down sheer precipices. The cem- eterY proper was walled in, and in this wall, which is ten feet thick, are the vaults for the collins. From the inside it looks more like an immense chest, with a thou sand small drawers, tha Il any thing else. On the head of each drawer was the name of it's occupant, with ocG lsionally the word "perpituidad.n That me ans the body is al lowed to stay in that vault forever. But as it costs one hundred dollars to have that word engraved there; it is looked upon as a needless extravaganza by the average Mex ican, and he rents it for five years. After the five years are up the bones are taken out and dumped in the vauN beneath.
 The body is never buried in coffin, as in the United States, except among the rich. The undertaken furn lshes the coffin to carry the body to the grave in, and it is there put into the stone box. Where the family of the deceased can not afft rd to hire coffin, they are allowed to use one of the city coffins. There are six of tfese, and they are out nearly all the time
 If the people do rot want to pay for the use of a vault, they Scan bury their dead in the vacant space in the center of the cen- etery. The body is allowed to stay in the ground for awhile and is then dug up. Underneath the cemetery is large vault, 1000 feet long, IA feet high and feet wide This is the final resting place. Here the bones are dumped for the last time and all though the cemetery at Guanajuata is only g years old, there are 20,OO0 cubic feet of bones there. The vault in another year will be full There are twenty-five num- mics in the vault
 When we got back among the small vaults once more noticed cabinet photo graph of a young Mexican lady who was killed in 1883 by her lover. It created q great sensation at the time, and when she was buried her parents very kindly put her picture on h CT head plate
 As we were returning we passed a "Panteon Municipal' funeral. The coffin is carried by two men to the foot of the mountain and there transferred to the back of a burrO.

tAoh AA SVAehlHkGOh'
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.--Hon P. D. Wiggi atom, who Fan for Governor on the American ticket in California two years ago, J. M. Basset, who drafted the first American platform for California, and Mir Grayson of Oakland have arrived as the advance guard of the California delega- tion to the American party convention to be held here on Tuesday.

Chicago has organized 8 strong American Club and sends large number of delegates. Ad vices from Boston, PittsburR, and other points West and South indicate that @ creditable number can be counte on.
 In conversation with the delegates numb Der of mon are mentioned for the head of the ticket, among whom are Mayor Hewitt, of New York; ex Mayor Low, of Brooklyn; Senators Blair, of New Hamp- shire; Stanford and Hearst, of California; Palmer, of Michigan; Wade Hampton, of South Carolina; Gov. Rusk, of Wisconsin :; Gov. Oglesby, of Illinois, and Gen. Negley, of Pennsylvania. The latter appears to be the most formidable candidate.

4 Perpetual Railroad Pass.

4 perpetual rRilroad pass Is pretty rare thing to have, hdt a man living in Attles- borough, on the line of the Boston G Provi- dence railroad, possesses one of these passes. In 1885, when the Boston 6 Provi- dence was be11g built, Mir John c. Dodge conveyed to it. portion of his land in con- sideration that he and his family should ride free over the railroad as long as the land was used for railroad purposes. A grandson of MT. Dodge lately claimed that he was entitled to the privileges named under the deed, and that the word family meant "descendants'' of the grantor. The railroad company opposed the demand, but the Supreme Court of Massachusetts de- cided that the railroad must carry free the descendants of MT. Dodge for all time.
