A young man named George Volzer,
employed on the steamer plying between
Lskeview and Lake Park, had quite q
high time yesterday at Stone House Point.

was seated at picnic table when man
came up to the place and began to make
things lively by yelling and turning things
upside down. Volzer demonstrated and
told him to go away. Tho fellow then
pulled out knife and started for him.
The two men do5ged around the trees In
the woods until Volzer by a side move
ment caught his antogonist and was
about to punish him, when the fellow
pleaded that he be forgiven and let GO.
This was the last seen of him. The
stranger wss drunk at the time.

GREEK MEETS GREEK.
A Novel Proceeding in Tomb.
stone Controversy.

Perhaps there are no two more strik-
ingly original characters in town than
Alfred Quinn the whitewasher and Philip
Heubert the monument maker and one
would naturally expect that IL the couple
got at loggerheads there would be some
fun ahead, but the record surprises all
expectations.
Some time ago the remains OF Mr..
Quinn's father, which we're buried at
Louisville, were taken up from the old
cemetery and reinterred in the new one
and ever since he has been negotiating
for the removal of the tombstone. A
bargain was finally struck with Mr.. Hau-
bert, who by the terms agreed upon was
to move the stone, place head mark on
on the grave and afterward do some
lettering. He was to be paid IS for NOV
ing the monument, s. for the head mark
and s. more for the lettering.
About two weeks ago he hired some
men and went to Louisville and moved
the stone and put up the head mark. II
had cost him the whole s. to pay his men
and team to move the stone but he ex-
pected to get his profit on the head mark
and on the lettering to be done later
Thus far there was nothing peculiar in
the transaction, but now Mr.. Haubert con.
cluded to collect before he did any more
work. Accordingly he broached Mr..
Quinn on the subject of pay for the work
done thus far. Mr.. Haubert tells an
amusing story concerning his experience,
but AT all events he failed to get the cash
and finally after waiting two weeks, he
on Monday of this week calmly secured a
a team and some helpers and going to
Louisville he loaded up the tombstone,
hauled IL back to the old empty grave and
set IL up where he had gotten it. He then
took his headmark and drove back home
again perfectly satisfied and contented.
The trip cost him 81, which with the s5
spent to take It away first made total
outlay of 81, but Mr.. Haubert was not
caring for expenses.
The Louisville people got onto the facts
In the case and they are having plenty Of
fun over the fact of Mr.. Hubert driving
fifteen miles at cost Of 81 and sweating
overia 1900 0Opouud.monumentto o,take it back
where he got it. Up to last evening Mr..
Quinn has not heard of the latest move,
but he will probably be called upon to
treat the crowd. There have been novel
proceedings in this section but this GER
tainly carries off the palm.

Marie dc Mediois as a Book Collector

The second wife of Henry ", Marie de

and who died in 1642 was, notwithstand-
ing Michelet's sneer at her as tune grande
ct CROSSE femme" a genuine book collect
or. The "fat tradeswoman from Flor
ence," as she was nicknamed at the time,
had genuine enthusiasm for the fine
arts, and honored the great painters of her
time. Her books were almost sufficiently
distinct in their bindings to form an epoch
In the history of bibliopegic art. Thirty
five books are now known to US as having
once belonged to Marie, and Of these two
are now in the British museum. Her
armorial bookmarks were numerous.
Nearly all the books which can now be
traced as having been at one time in her
possession are religious, and include works
in Spanish, Italian and Latin. An agree
able variation to devotional books is, how
ever, apparent by the presence Of Vitre's
description du Premier Voyage" made
to the East Indies by the French Q609)-an
expedition which was ordered by Henry

count Of his travels.
