IN A NAMELESS GRAVE.
The Spot Where Tom Moore's First Sweet
heart Lies Buried.

Only those who are thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the innumorablo highways and
byways Of Greenwood cemetery, in Brook
Ign, know of II section called 1.-THE Hill of
Graves" The section derives its name
from the fact that nearly 40, 600 unfortu-
mates are buried there in rows of so. Ono
would never think of looking for a spot Of
interest in that locality. To find any par
ticular grayoin this public burying ground
one needs the aid of a cemetery guide.
And even such guide has difficulty, since
the graves are known only by numbers.
Upon looking at the records of the ceme-
terry it 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 sos. When the grave was found, it
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, on which is inscribed, "Moth-
er 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 immortaliZed in his verse
and who in the maturity of her career
won the applause of thousands and thou
sands Of people whom her name attracted
to all the great theaters of America and
England as one of the most gifted of ac-
trcsses. Edward Box in Ladies' Home
Journal

The Spiral Soother,

"Give me spiral soother," says the
critic to the professor. The amiable dis
penser Of liquid comfort picks up u lemon
tenderly and carefully proceeds to remove
its peel. The knife Is handled so deftly
and carefully that when the white inner
skin of the fruit is exposed the yellow rind
hangs in one piece, Curying around and
around, like bed spring, for instance. A
goblet is produced and the peel is carefully
wound around ON its inside until it reaches
from the bottom to the top. Cracked ice is
heaped in to hold the peel in place, and u
bottle of ginger ale is trickled slowly into
it. The liquid sparkles like champagne,
and you feel cooler with each tiny bubble
that PUSHES to break upon the surface.
You spend two or three minutes in rapture
at the vision, and then you raise it to your
lips and sip it. The man in the stiff collar
and white shirt becomes your best friend,
the exasperatingly cool looking girl you are
willing to lead to the altar, your enemies
are forgiven, and you make up your mind
to pay all your debts as the connection
trickles down your throat, cooling your
frame, but warming the cookies of your
heart. Washington Post.

The Corbett-FItzsimmons Fight.

Jere Dunn of New York has heretofore
Iways entertained most decided and in
some cases very characteristically terse and
expressive opinions on probable pugilisito
battles. For some unexplained reason he
has taken a change Of tack in the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons battle, which is scheduled to
take place ON Oct. 81, and has persistently
declined to express an opinion on the
chances of the big pugilists in their COM
ing battle.
He says both Corbett and Fitzsimmons
are very warm friends of his, and that is
why the venerable sport refuses to put
himself on record as a fstic prophet in this
instance.
His absolute refusal to express an opin-
Ion on the big fight leads those who know
him best to believe that he has been ap-
preached by the Florida Athletic club with
proposition to referee the fight between
the big fellows.

INOOULATED WITH CANCER,
The Misfortune of Young and Talented
New York Physician.

New York Physician.
For the first time in the history of medi-
cine in this country has n complete chain
of incubation from cancer been estab-
lished in the case of DR.. Edward W. Bur-
nette of lis West Thirty-fourth street,
who now lies at deaths door. The woman
from whom he received tho disease is also
dying from cancer.
The woman called upon DR. Burnctte
last autumn. She had an irritation on
the tongue. Tho doctor applied nitrate of
silver with his finger. Some time later he
shaved himself, and in doing so scratched
his left cheek. To stop the flow of blood
he applied powder with his finger. He
noticed that the cut stung him longer
than usual, but he paid little attention to
it. A swelling resulted from the scratch
and cancer developed.
Tho woman had her tongue cut out
about this time, as tho irritation had
proved to DO from cancer. She is now re
ported as dying She was inoculated by
using a speaking tube in the business
house of man who has since died from
cancer and who first had had his tongue
cut out. In every case tho cancer was of
the same sort, known as large cell sarcoma.
DIR. Burnette was operated upon in
March. Part Of his jawbono was removed
and the cheek was cut away almost to the
left eye. His condition improved at first,
but he developed alarming symptoms. 1t
is now feared that in addition to the
growth on his cheek, which is again ma
lignant, he also has cancer in his liver.
DIR. Charles McBurney performed the first
operation. Three weeks ago DR. Brunette
requested his personal friend, DR.. Roland
d. Jones, to take care Of him. He is assist
ed by DR.. Walter Bruyere. DIR. Jones said
yesterday: "There is no doubt in my mind
that this case demonstrates that cancer is
inoculable. 1 know it is a point upon
which the best physicians disagree, but
this chain of incubation is complete. OF
course DR.. Burnotte is pretty low, but
while there is life there is hope, and he
may be cured. New York Herald.

REOLAIMING AN IDIOT.
Pieces Cut From the Skull of a Two-year-
old Child.

ola Ch1lus
The little surgical world in Boston is
deeply interested in an operation which
was performed early in the summer at the
Massachusetts Homeopathic hospital and
whose results have just reached practical
elimination.
1t was an operation whose outcome will
mean much or little to humanity.
Tho case in question is that of O child
whose head formation at birth precluded
all idea Of brain growth. At "a years of
ago he was an infant in all but growth of
body. He was pretty child, well formed
with tho exception of the head, which
came to II point at the top.
For two years tho parents of the child
who live in Salem, waited for nature to
correct her mistake but were told, when
advice was asked, that nothing but u sur
gical operation could effect change and
the beneficial results of that were doubt
full
But it was a chance, and the parents
took it. The child was conveyed to the
hospital and placed in charge of DR.. Will
liam J. VIM of Cambridge.
He decided to remove portion of bone
on each side Of tho point giving the brain
q chance to spread out and fill tho dopros-
sions. He decided upon two operations,
with az weeks rest between them, prin-
cipally because the shock to tho brain
would be less.
Tho child was ethcrized, an incision
made in tho scalp little at tho side of tho
portion of bone he meant to remove, so
that the unbroken skin would cover the
cavity, and a piece Of bone about seven
inches long and less than one inch wide
was taken out. The binding of tho wound
in the scalp was a quick process and the
brain was left with little room to devel-
op. Tho second operation was duplicate
of the first, and tho child is in it's usual
state Of good health. Only time will tell
if the expected results will come.
A visit to the nursery whore tho child
was discovered him in q small crib, max
ing strong efforts to convince his nurse
that he wanted to be taken up. He wore
little white cap, which covered the band
age on his head, and the whole was easily
removed. The scars could be seen by those
who sought them but from their position
were not unsightly.
Gle knows enough to cry for his food
and for attention, " remarked the nurse as
she readjusted the cap and tied it securely
under the round chin, and he evidently
received as much of boCl rs waS good for
him. He is understood by everybody in
the building to be the special object of DR..
Winn's professional hopes for his i'm
provement in the proper direction means
much to the surgeon and the profession he
cpresents.-Boston Times.

The Shakers have made discovery
which is destined to accomplish much
good. Realizing tnat three fourths of
all our sufferings arise from stomach
troubles, that the country is literally
filled with people who cannot eat and di-
gest food, without subsequently suffering
pain and distress, and that many are
starving, wasting to mere skeletons. be-
cause their food does them no good, they
have devoted much study and thought
to the subject, and the result is this dis
covery, of their Digestive Cordial.
A little book can he obtained from
your druggists that will point out the
way of relief at once. An investigation
will cost nothing and will result in much
good.

An English physician has a formula for
tea and milk designed for persons with
weak digestion who like the slight stimu.
liant of tea, but are unable to use it as or
dinarily prepared. The milk is put into
saucepan cold, with the requisite amount
of tea in an infuser or loosely tied in
muslin bag. The milk is then allowed to
come slowly to the boil and the moment
the boiling point is reached the vessel must
be snatched from the fire and it's contents
quickly strained into a carefully heated
teapot. This concoction is said to be pleas
ant to drink and unwholesome to no one.

Reasons For DisinheritinC.

1t has been remarked that the disinher-
ing of relations is mostly for venial Of
nses and not for base actions. The last
ish Lord Fitzwilliam left his property to
prd Onslow, but one morning at break
st the intended heir, after helping him
III to cream, caught the last drop upon
10 rim of his cup, which was thus brought
to contact with the edge of the cream
|g. Lord Fitzwilliam contended that
is was an i'll bred action, and, as the Of
nder persisted in ridiculing the objec-
bn, his name was forthwith erased from
|e will. Isaac Casaubon left no part of
IS goods to his son, who had joined the
Iurch of Rome, but "onlye one cup of the
Ilue of 30 crowns. Temple Bar.

SUPREME COURT VACANCY.
A Citizen of New York VIII Probably Get
the Place.

the Place.
1t is believed here that President Cleve-
land will appoint citizen of New York
to tho vacancy on the supreme court
bench. This belief is based both on the
reports that come from Washington and
on the fact that New York has now no
representative in the supreme court and
that geographical and political considcra-
lions demand the appointment of New
York man. Since the supreme court was
organized, in 1889, there have been six
New Workers who have served on its bench
namely, John Jay, who was chief JUS
tice from 1889 to 1895; b. Livingston,
associate justice from 1906 to 1928; Smith
Thompson, 1928 to 1913; Samuel Nelson,
1915 to 1872; Ward Hunt, 1879 to 1882,
and Samuel Blatchford, from 1882 to 1898.
Thus, during the whole history of the
court, 100 years, New York has been rep
resented on it all the time with the excep-
ton Of IL years, from 1895 to 1906; two
years, from 1913 to 1916, and two years
from 1898 to the present time u total of
10 years. Wheeler H. Peckham and Will
liam b. HOrnblOwer, who were nominated
for the vacancy created by the death of
Judge Blatchford in 1898, are still living,
and one or the other of them may again
have his name sent to the senate. But the
bar Of New York contains thousands of
Democrats eligible for the position, and
many of them are fully competent to per-
form its high duties. The difficulty is to
find the man who is not only eligible and
competent, but who is of the right age and
character, and whose political antecedents
are acceptable to the president and yet
such as will make him reasonably certain
of contlrmation.-New York Cor. Phila-
delphia Ledger.
