An Old Phonogra nh.

The antiquity Of modern inventions
has often been the subject Of remark,
by way of commentary upon the old
saying that 'Sthere Is nothing new
under the sun" An extreme case is re-
ported by the London News. A peri
patetic exhibitor of the photograph In
Holland seems determined to distan oe
all competitors. He was exhibiting the
machine in the streets OF Utrecht, and
q number Of customers were listening
TO selection of tunes. Suddenly the
music ceased and there was a pause.
Then In loud, clear tone was heard
the one word: "Haltn what Is
thatp" asked one of the listeners.
THAT" was the reply, lis the voice Of
Napoleon Bonaparte giving an order at
the battle Of Waterlool"

TOM MooRs's SWEETHEART.

She Lies Buried In Nameless Grave In
Greenwood Cemetery.
Only those who are thoroughly con-
versant with the innumerable high
ways and byways of Greenwood ceme-
terry in Brooklyn know of section
called ''The Hill of Graves" The sec
ton, says the Ladies' Home Journal,
derives Its name from the fact that
nearly forty thousand unfortunates are
buried there In rows of fifty. One
would never think Of looking for spot
of interest In that locality. To find
any particular grave in this public
burying ground one needs the aid Of a
cemetery guide. And even such a
guide has difficulty, since the graves
are known only by numbers. Upon
looking at the records of the cemetery
1t was found that the special grave de-
sired In this instance was in public lot
No. 5000, and that the number Of the
mound was so5. When the grave was
found 1t was not unlike the thousands
around It The mound was sunken and
neglected; the grass, once green upon
It, is long since dead {; A small white
marble stone stands at the head, upon
which 10 inscribed: Mother and
Grandmother" Nothing Is there to
indicate the fact that underneath that
sunken mound Lies all that Is mortal Of
beautiful Mary Duff, to whom the poet
Thomas Moore offered his hand and
heart, whose beauty he immortalised tn
bis verse, and who, tn the maturity Of
her career, won the applause Of thou
sands upon thousands OF people whom
her name attracted TO all the great
thesters Of Europe and America, as
ono Of the most gifted OF actresses-

Pie-Iron Tramp for Tramps.

At meeting of the Pennsylvania
board of prison inspectors in Lancaster
steps were, taken which, 1t believes,
will put ON end to the tramp nuisance.
Lancaster county appears to be their
favorite resort, as they have hitherto
been too well looked after, even In
iail. The board directed the prison
keeper to purchase two tons OF pig iron,
and every tramp committed for a
longer period than twenty-four hours
will be compelled to take five hours
active exercise carrying this iron from
one end of the prison yard to the other.
All refusing to do so will be put upon
half rations.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Miss Kate Field, the brilliant editor,
has been expressing some pronounced
opinions on the school system, which she
finds is not practical enough to meet her
views. In the course of her comments
the lady remarks: 81 would like to have
our children taught how to make d
living" 1t is evident the lady favors the
introduction of manual training in the
schools, and in this respect there are
many who think with her. On the con
trary, however, there is d large element
who believe that the public schools are
conducted on plane far beyond their
legitimate scope. This class insist that
it is the duty of the state to furnish the
children with sound elementary edu
cation only. and that language, music
and the higher branches should find no
place in the system. 1t is impossible, OF
course, to make people think alike upon
the subject, and in the meantime the
critics will continue to air their varying
opinjons and the schools will be con-
Quoted on the lines that appear to meet
the needs of the community in which
they are located. The system appears to
be doing well throughout the country
and il any changes are made they VIII be
in the nature of improvements not retro
grossiong. 1t can be said at present, IN
spite of the opinion of Miss Field. that
there is no reason why the state should
turn the schools into workshops and
furnish each scholar with trade. The

COPPER NJ A ItK Ell.

Business in til" Metal shows IA Good In
Ia it's review of the market for the last
week the Mining and Engineering Jour
nal says of copper:
A very large business has been doing
during this week in all grades of copper,
except casting brands, which remain
rather dull and neglected, but for the
finer grades, such as lake and electrolytlc,
q very large business has resulted at
gradually hardening prices. Large or
ders have been placed for lake copper
for May, June, and July shipment at 6112
and for electrolytic copper bars at
9AM931 delivered, at which prices
hardly any sellers remain over. A good
demand existed for export, but prices
we're not up to the idea of sellers and
hardly any business resulted in this di
rection. The exports of copper, how
ever, are large, and are likely to continue
so, this being copper contracted fol
about the middle of April. The accum
