THEY LIKE OUR CRENAFORIUM.
Foreign Visitors Who Think It WOuld Be
So Nice To Die In Astoria.

The Central Park Crematorium was
open yesterday for the reception of
guests from foreign countries. Hun
dreds of visitors from Europe, Asia
and Africa wandered through the de-
Gghtful place, and expressed their great
delight. The long, onyx and pearl
galleries, with their numerous rows of
urns, never looked better. The suns
rays streamed in through the colored
glass roof; the birds in their cages
sang sweetly; the flowers and plants
mingled with the urns filled the place
with<ragrance, and the solemn SYM
phonies from the great organ echoed
in every nook and Granny. The foun-
tains dashed their spray in the rosy
light, and bees and butterflies fitted
from plant to blossom. Some of the
visitors, especially those from Asia
and Africa, could hardly believe that
such beautiful spot, teeming with
life and gentle activity, was a house
of the dead. Evidently they could
not oust from their minds recollection
of the gloom, dampness, worms and
odors which make their own burial
places so horrible. IF I lived in Asto-
ria" said bright Hindoo from Cal
cutta, Il should not be afraid to die
You wonderful people have robbed
death of half his terrors." Their aston
ishment was still greater when they
were told that this crematorium was
owned by the city; that reduction and
lnurnment were free. that there W2S

more conspicuous place, no finer urns,
no more fragrant plants next their
ashes than the poor. Indeed" re-
marked Huyuyen Dzing, of Teheran,

the lawyer gallery and were shown
the urns of our great advocates;
through the minister gallery, and the
galleries where lay the cremated
ashes Of the merchant, the bricklayer,
the stonemason, the journalist, the
railroader, and the manufacturer.
They had set out to visit all of the
galleries, but abandoned this project

were five miles in length and contained
the ashes of three millions of people.

We DO Things Better Nowadays.

Workingmen employed in the re-
moval of the old archives OF former
assessors TO the present Office of the
tax commissioner made a discovery
yesterday which throws a curious
light upon the methods of taxation
employed q century ago. While dig
ging in the sub basement of what once
was the office OF the assessor, on
Washington street, they came upon
an old vault filled with books. This
part of Astoria a hundred years ago,
formed the wealthiest district of the
city. and these books were the records
of the assessment of personal property
in that district 1t was found that all
the people that lived then must have
been very poor, as they had no ready
money. ncr furniture, lived without
watches, or personal adOrnments and
in houses that were hardly worth re-
pairing-that is according to the as
sessed values of those days. Itwas
also noticed that the value in sundry
deeds of sale, was four fold more than
that at which the same property was
set down in the blanks furnished by
the assessor. The present system of
assessment, which empowers the tax
commissioner TO buy In any merchan-
disc, goods or property at the figures
returned by the owners, has wrought
wonderful changes.

USEFUL INFORMATION.

Tilbury Fox, II. D., the eminent medical
writer, in his work 4" Skin Diseases" thus ae'
counts for the pimples so common to the
face and neck. Eating too rich or too greasy
food, or too hearty eating while the ex-
cretory organs are sluggish, causes in most
people indigestion or dyspepsia condition,
which causes the blood to move Iluggishly,
and enfeebles the pores. The result is, that
the exuding secretions block i'll the pores
which inaame, each distinct Inflammation
being pimple. DR.. Fox therefore does not
prescribe " blood purifiers" SO called, but
dyspepsia cure to be taken, to use his own
words ",W the dyspepsia symptoms have
disQpDeGrcd." The old idea was, that face
eruptions were caused by q " humor in the
blood" for which they treated the blood

How They Talked a Hundred Years Ago

Perhaps there never was a boom
that did not make some one rich, as
well as happy, under circumstances
somewhat romantic to say the least.
The boom that at present is blowing
around Astoria, raising real estate
prices, laying out town lots, bringing
IN people and money, and building a
city at the mouth of the Columbia,
and at the to-be termini Of several
transcontinental lines of rail, is no ex-
ception. True, prices are low yet, and
no big fortunes have been made, but
the incident related below serves to
show that it is about as well to be
born lucky as rich. Miss Nora Simp-
son, OF Oregon City, is at present in
Salem, getting a deed for a timber
claim secured by her about three
months ago. The land in question
lies not far from the city of Astoria
and there is something approaching
grim humor in the fact that she is
about to reap harvest of town lots
off her timber claim. The fact is,
realty has gone up in price so rapidly
in and around Astoria, recently, that
this fortunate young lady has refused
many thousands of dollars for the
eighty acres which she got almost
for the asking a few months ago. 1t
has made her rich and as she exhibits
determination TO hold on to it, heI
fortune will be greater still. Booms
are funny things. No one knows
where or when they are going to next
nor how long it will be before they
play the part OF the boomerang

A SOUVENIR OF Is4I.
Miss Brown Has a Chair Which She Worked
for William Henry Harrison.

washington Post.
In the spacious parlors of the old-fash-
toned house at No. go New Jersey avenue
southeast, is seen an antique and striking
souvenir of the brief administration of
President William Henry Harrison. This
relic is in the shape of q rocking chair, the
upholstered portion of which was worked
by Miss Anna Stewart Brown, who now
prizes the piece of furniture very highly.
1t was the original intention to present the
chair to President Harrison. and he had
been consulted in regard to the matter, but
expressed a wish that the presentation be
deferred until after the crowds that had
been attracted by the Inauguration cere-
monies bad returned to their homes. But.
as is well known, before this m~uch-desired
period arrived President Harrison died and
the chair remained the property of Miss
Brown. Only a few days before the Gen.
erals death the chair was returned from
the upholsterer's, and Maj. d. b. French, a
gentleman whowas quite prominent in Ma
sonic circles at that time, had been selected
to make the presentation speech.
A reporter saw the chair last night at
Miss Browns home. On the back is worked
this inscriptions: Presented to Gen. Will
lam Henry Harrison by Anna Stewart
Brcvyn-1S41." The materials of which the
back and seat are worked were very costly
at that time, and Miss Brown states that
she had an offer of $500 in gold for the chair
from q New York admirer of General Harri-
son., which she declined. Miss Brown is
the daughter OF the late Robert Brown, who
at one time was quite a prominent contract
or in the District.
