4 Song Writer'S Neglected Grave.

There is a little green mound and humble
marble slab in secluded corner OF Otterbein
cemetery, about twelve miles north Of the
city. which marks tho grave Of tho author Of
that famous ballad, Darling Nellie Gray"
visitor to the spot learns from the inscrip-
ton on tho stone that it is tho last resting
place Of Benjamin Russell Hanby.
Tie seclusion Of the tomb, the neglect
shown it by all save n few relatives, and the
general ignorance OF its location form nn-
other illustration of the forgetfulness Of the
human race. Notwithstanding the grave Of

gotten and neglected, his own beautiful bal
lad has sculpturcd out for him a monument
of memory which will endure the changes Of
centuries to ocome-Columbus (O.) Press

New Hospital Needed

1t has become fact no longer to be
sighted that st. Luke's hospital must have
larger and more convenient quarters. 1t
is not likely that any difficulty would be
experienced in building were the ground
obtainsble on which to build, and the
guild is in readiness to receive and cons
slider any donations that may be offered
in the way of land. A site as nearly be-
tween the two cities as it could be located
would be best adspted TO the usages and
purposes Of the institution, and the guild
would be exceedingly happy TO receive a
proposition from some of the land syndi-
Gates in the east part of town. The hos
pitsl has become q permanent institu
ton Of the locality and it should have q
new and conveniently designed building
for its own use.
Many of our citizens who are in the
habit of contributing to deserving enter.
prises can do no better deed than to aid
this worthy institution.

The ARGUS exchanges are quoting the
time in which the circuit clerks have
transcribed the $3.50. 100000 mortgage
filed bp the Milwaukee & ST. Paul rail-
road. The latest and best record comes
from Whiteside county. The document
contained Il 600 words, and the paper
which brags on the work says it was re-
corded in twenty hours, actual time, and
thirty nine pages were used to spread the
document on the mortgage book.
This same document was filed in this
county. as has been heretofore noted.
No time of commencement or finishmen,
by minutes or hours was kept, but Mr..
Al bert Johnson, deputy circuit clerk,
transcribed the mortgage in good legi-
bic hand in the space of thirty-four pages
in book of mortgages A.. IN less than

Crackers in London.

The crop OF travellers tales is being har
vested in some places. \ Pittsburger, writ
ing from London, details little experience
in that citys hotel life which seems worth
relating.
They were four in number, all Americans
and they were having dinner in the gor
geously furnished dining room of the Hote
&i-tropoie. When the soup was brought tn,
Pittsburger in the party asked the waiter u
bring some crackers.
BEG pardon" said the waiter; what die
you say, sir.'
Crackers replied the Pittsburger
The waiter looked puzzled. but walked of
and did not appear again near the table fol
several minutes. The soup was getting cold
anil the PIttsburger called another waiter
and sent him after the first with a renewed
injunction To bring some crackers. Another
minute or two passed, and then both waiter
re-entered the room with the stately heal
waiter They We're engaged in earnest con
versation for another minute. At last the
waiter originally sent bashfully approached
the Americans and laid beside the Pittsburg
er's plate a pair of silver nutcrackers
There was a general laugh, in which the
Pittsburger joined when another member Of
the party said: If You want crackers TO eat
you must call them biscuits as long as you're

company was small and select, being
limited to six couples, for whom ham,
mocks were provided. Twenty minutes
were allowed each gentleman with each
