silcridan's Grave in Arlington.

In their evening drives those who take
in the shaded Solitudes of Arlington OBJ
serve change in the appearance of the
grave Of Sheridan, although it was Mrs.
Sheridan's wish that the treasured relics
of mortality of her husband should DO
laid in their mother earth in the simple
grave of o soldier. Since the martial
ceremony and manner Of burial were
comprised In accordance with her wishes,
q few weeks ago., the military authorities
of the grounds have added some i'm
provements of their own. Without
opening the grave they have dug around
the casket and have enveloped it in a
casing Of brick and cement. On the top
they have sunk in the earth an immense
stone of cubic form weighing about three
tons, which originally was the base Of q
column Of the old war department.
The sacred spot of Sheridan's final rest
Is now marked by the appearance of tho
dressed surface of this immense bowlder
about one inch above the fresh green of
the surrounding turf. It bears no in
scription, but wreaths of immortelles mark
it to the gay drivers by that it is grave.
Until suitable monument rears it's in

stranger must be told that there rest on
that peaceful hillside the ashes of the

Tho parser Shops of Enrope.

The comparison between tho barber
shop Of America and tho barber shop Of
Europe is the comparison between a PAL
ace and novel. Luxury in q barber
shop across the water, even in Paris, is
all unknown quantity. Tho American
barber aims to make his shop rs attract
i've, his chairs as luxurious and comfort
able as possible. In decorations and fit
ting up generally many shops in America
are exceedingly artistic. In Europe
things are different. An American Wis
iting Paris or London, on placing him
self in the hands of native barber, will
Mt once sigh for the land of his birth, and
would even onjoy the gossip of his
American barber.
In the provincial towns and cities Of
Germany barber is en- institution. Ho
Is q dignitary to some extent. The head
barber never shaves man. He hires
assistants to do that. He must be
surgeon and n dentist. He pulls teeth,
cups and leeches, cuts off leg or
arm If necessary, but he never draws a
razor across a customers face. The head
barbcr's assistants start out with their
shaving outfits carly in the morning and
90 the shaving right at the homes of
customers, who make n contract for n
year to be shaved SO many times week
for 80 muc!I-Generally about $40 Is the
price. Customers must be ut home when
the barber calls or they will not be shaved
until the next trip. There are very few
shops and very poor ones In Germany.
The European on visiting America !s
astounded at the luxury, the artistic ar
rangement and general elegance Of the
American barber shop. George Werner

FROM the baitlhiore sun.
In the third year OF the late war General
H. IT, Lee was expected to cross the Potomac into
Prince Georges county at the head of the confeder
ate army on its march to Pennsylvania. His friends
and admirers in and around MARI
borough determined to give him cordial
welcome, and to celebrate the event by
presenting him with some appropriate article to
serve as a testimonial of their esteem, and as a
souvenir of hisvsit. The general and his army did
not come, but his friends decided to give him the
present and they collected $500 for that purpose.
They concluded to spend the money for pair of
gold spurs. They were of solid gold, with morocco
straps The rowels were of steel as sharp as nee

bloody and brutal tragedy occurred lateaslast
night at Helena, small mining town, fifteen
miles south of this city A number of negro
laborers were drinking together, and Jack
Williams and Dick Russell became involved
in quarrel. Williams drew long-bladed
knife, and attacking Russell came near cutting
his heart out. The negros breast and alb
domen were laid open by heavy blows with the
dirk, and he was otherwise mutilated in a hor-
rible manner. The second stab with the dirk
laid open Russell's breast and penetrated the
heart, killing him instantly. Williams was
arrested by three white men. While on the
way to the jail he attacked them, and sue
ceeded in making his escape, after having
severely beat one of his captors. He is still at
large, but was trailed with bloodhounds today.
