No Sale for STAMPS.

Three years ago Mrs. Jesse Marden,
of Baltimore, heard that she could
get $500 for 1000, 600 Cancelled postage
stamps. She conceived the idea of
making a collection and to use the
proceeds in paying for a berth for a
person in INDECENT circumstances, in
some home. With the assistance Of
her three daughters she has finally
completed her work, and thinks she
is the first who ever succeeded. She
obtained a number by giving STAMP
parties, to which all the invited
guests were expected to bring stamps.
The labor Of soaking, cleaning and
counting vas enormous. They are
now done up in packages and ready
for shipment. But unfortunately for
Mrs. Marden's plans, she cannot find
a purchaser, SO that after all her la
bors may have been in vain.

Difference of religion Is at the bot
tom of the bitterness against home
rule in Ulster. It is hard for an
American to understand that in the
north of Ireland Protestants and
Catholics still regard each other with
so much dislike and suspicion that a
stranger might fancy the "siege Of
Derry" was not yet ended and that
King James, followers we're still
fighting. In America the two creeds
live peaceably side by side, and with
the exception Of an occasional out
break, or s'break" Of somebody's
tongue or pen, one may conclude that
differences Of opinion in theology
have been sunk in one absorbing aim
Of getting on in this world. In north
ireland, however, there are not 60
great possibilities in the way Of
accommodating wealth in this world;
consequently the doughty Ulstermen
turn their attention more to the
next. There is no doubt many of
them-really believe that IL the home
rule measure were passed they would
no longer be safe in the enjoyment Of
their religion. It IL no credit either
to Balfour, the Conservative leader.
that he has done all IN his power to
arouse the flames Of religious disssn-
sion.

The Old Ticket in Ohio.

The Ohio republican state central
committee has decided to hold the
state convention at Columbus, June
Z and 8. At the meeting an informal
discussion among the delegates on the
ticket, showed unanimity in favor of
the denomination Of Gov. Mckinley
and the entire present state officials,
with the possible exception of F,o1d
and Dairy Commissioner Mcneil, who
has made himself unpopular with
business men by reason Of his rather
severe enforcemcnto Of the law relative
to pure food.

A Monument to stephens.

By a strange coincidence the body
of Vice President Alexander III.
Stephens, of the late Confederate=
States Of America, will be laid in ltss
final resting place the same week that,
the same Office will be performed for
the remains of his chief, Jefferson
Davis. When MI. Stephens died he
was governor Of the state of Georgia.
At a public meeting, while his body
was lying instate in the state capitol
1T was resolved that a suitable monu-
ment should be erected to his memory.
Chief Justice Crawford it was who
said that perhaps one-half the public
men then in office owed their first
start to the sympathy and monetary
help of the dead governor. "This
being the case," said he, ssthese men
should claim the proud privilege Of
seeing that a monument should be
reared to his memory.n
With the burial Of Mr.. Stephens
the movement for the monument,
Jagged, and the men who were known
to have been the recipients of his
bounty were absent from all meetings
to further the object. Finally. after
a lapse of ten years, q lady, Mary H.
Gay, took up the work. The monu-
ment, which is a simple Italian shaft.

OF GRANT.
Old Neighbors at Galena Cele-
brate the Anniversary Of
His Natal Day.
Grafton by Gov. Mckinley OF
Ohio---A Grand Torch-.
light Procession.

Galena, ILL.,, people celebrated the
seventy-frst birthday anniversary Of
Gen. Grant with appropriate exer-
cises. Ten Thousand people braved
the unpropitious weather to assist in
honoring the memory of the great
commander. The town made a holi-
day, public Offices, schools and BUSH
ness houses being closed and all pro
fusely decorated. The narrow streets
were almost impossible.
Governor Mckinley, the orator OF
the occasion, arrived in the after
noon, accompanied by H. H. Kohl
saat of the Chicago Inter Ocean and
others. The parade was formed at
the same time aid the governor and
party were driven direct to the
parade line.
The parade comprised all the local,
military and civic organizations,
with visiting G. A. r. posts and
societies headed by the Grant flte and
drum corps, organized twenty-five
years ago.
The post of honor was held by the
remnant of Company F, Tenth I'LL
nois volunteers, the first company
organized in Galena when the war
broke out.
1t was the original intention to
hold the exercises at Grant Park.
where the monument stands, but the
weather and Governor McKinley's
health precluded this. The orations
were therefore delivered in Turner
hall in the evening and the public
reception to Mckinley and Kohlsaat
preceded by torchlight parade and
display of fireworks.
Governor Mckinley, in the Begin
ming of his address, expressed the
honor he felt in being permitted to
share in observance of the seventy
first anniversary of the birth Of Gen.
Grant. The speaker rapidly sketched
the boyhood and early manhood OF
Grant, and coming down to the. war.
detailed his initial work in the
struggle. The speaker then reviewed
and eulogized Grants military career.
Speaking of Grants civil administra-
tfon, Mckinley said:
"Could anyone have done better
than he? We will not pause to dis
cuss it. He committed errors; but.
who could have escaped them. His
administration was one of the strong
est, wisest and most patriotic we
have ever had. Grant won the LAST
ing gratitude of his fellow country
men, and wherever he went among
them they crowned him with mani
fcstations of their love and venera-
tion."
Governor Mckinley spoke in touch
ing words of the struggle of the old
commander with death at McGregor
while finishing his memoirs, and in
closing said: 1--WE bow in affectionate
reverence and with the most grateful
hearts to the immortal names of
Washington, Lincoln and Grant, and
will guard with sleepless vigilance
their mighty work and cherish their
memories forever more"

FEARFULLY BURNED.
Pauline Wright, Little six-year- Old Girl.
 in Critical Condition.

A few days ago little Pauline Wright, the 6-year-old daughter of Mrs. Wright, q seamstress who lives on Barraque street near the pontoon bridge landing, was fearfully burned. Her mother had given permission to her and her litte sister to go to the building that is beingrepaired on the corner of BarraQue and State streets and pick up some blocks with which to play. The little children were at the rear of the building picking up the blocks that were lying near fire that had been built in the morning by the workmen there. As Pauline stopped over to pick up block that was near the fire her dress caught In twinkle of an eye her clothing all over her body was a mass of flames, famed by a strong wind that was blowing. Her screams at tracted the attention of the work men on the building, but before they could get down to her she started toward home on a run. A carpenter from the building and one of Berlin's back drivers overlook her and tore her burning clothes from her body. She was burned from her knees to her head and now lies in perfect agony at her mothers home Ill ad- dition to the severe burns she has contracted pneumonia and her life is despaired of. \ representative of the GRAPHIC called to see Der and her mother this morning. We found the mother in tears and the little child barely alive. We believe that the good Christian mothers of this cit should go to this home of great grief at once and lend aid and help to heart-broken mother and a dying child.

Just as the hearse was crossing the Cotton Beltt track one of the horses struck his right hind foot on an upright nail which was driven an inch and half into his foot. The driver did not dis cover the injury until the limping of the horse warned him that some thing was wrong. He got down, ex- amined the horses foot and with his hand pulled out the nail.
