The Grave of Jenny Lind.

1t has been stated that the grave on
Malvern hills, in England, of Jenny Lind
Goldschmidt, the Swedish nightingale, has
been sadly neglected and is not even mark
I'll by the simplest Slab This is not true.
Al handsome and costly monument in the
shape of u cross tells the passerby that
there rests the body Of that noble woman,
renowned not only as the most wonderful
songstress of her day, but for her almost
unparalleled generosity and sanity char
acter. 1t is stated that her husband, long
after her decease, was in the habit of Wis
iting her grave daily and strewing upon it
the most beautiful flowers He was
most devoted and loving husband, and her
last days were made happy and sweet by
his kind attentions.
Mr.. p Il. Barnun, her American agent,
in visit to England some years before his
death, called upon tho Goldschmidt fami-
ly and saw the daughter and granddaugh-
ter. In tho house were number of fine
portraits and marble busts of the Swedish
nightingale. She was much beloved, not
only by her own family friends, but by
multitudes who have been the grateful re-
cipients of her many charities. Her very
last days were spent in singing for indi-
gent clergymen. 1t is recorded of Mr.. Bar
mum that he could make her cry any time
by repeating to her story Of poverty, and
that she always backed her tears with a
purseful of money. "-B. W. Williams in
Boston Transcript.

Doesn't Agree With Lane.

Vicksburg Commercial Herald.
For Mr.. Lanes motives we have the
highest respect. But we can but regard
his counsel to hold cotton for 10h cents
as ill-advised and mischlevous. He
would embark the whole body of planters
on the dangerous and risky sea of specu-
lation, where many of their number have
already had such quantities of sad ex-
perience. He Is advising them, in fact.
TO indulge in what has always been re-
garded as besetting sin of their class
a proneness to hold cotton for higher
prices. The instances are rare, indeed,
where cotton has been wisely held, when
a good price can be had for it. 1t is
form of gambling surrounded by more
elements of uncertainty, and borne upon
by more strong and occult influences
than any other whatever. In the range
of our observation the planters who have
proved good Judgment by success recog-
nlze as the only safe rule the sale of cot
ton as soon as it Is ready for shipment
If a man-issinclined to take any chances
on the future of cotton that Is a differ
ent matter. 1t is bad practice at best
but worse merged with legitimate bus-
mess In truth we think Mr.. Lane has,
In his zeal to promote the welfare of his
class. gone far beyond the bounds of his
position az well as exceeded prudence
All the information he has obtained and
given out is proper and useful. But the
question of applying it, holding cotton
on the strenth of it, had best he left to
individual judgment and conditions.
That is what the greet majority do any,
way. And judging by reports of receipts
they think il well not to hold cotton
when it Is selling at present prices.

by her new home, Madison avenue and

tied invitations will be sent out to the
wedding of her daughter Miss Consuelo,
and the Duke of Marlborough. 1t is ex-
pected that the wedding will take pla ce
November 20 in St. Thomas church. At
the wedding Miss Vanderbilt should of
course. walk down the aisle leaning on
the arm of her father. Whether or not
she does so remains to be seen. So far
eight of the bridesmaids have been Sc
lected. There will be three others. These
will lead the way to the altar. Miss Jay
is one of the bridesmaids. Her parents,
Colonel and Mrs. Jay, have been close
friends of Mrs. Vanderbilt, and Colonel
Jay was her counselor in her recent di-
vorce suit. Miss Jay was a natural Sc
lection. So was that of her cousin the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles NJ
Oelrichs. Mrs. Jay is Mrs. Oelrichs' sis
ter. 1t is Mrs. -Vanderbilt's intention to
give the reception after the church GER

of both premises, uniting them for the
occasion.
