William Henry Harrison. The movement.
for this memorial began five years ago
with the organization of a Harrison me-
mortal association, composed of some Of
the leading citizens Of the Queen City.
The association secured some funds by
subscription, supplemented by a bill in
the State Legislature authorizing a tax
levy that warranted the expenditure OF
$4,000. The association was afterward
merged into the Harrison statue commits
sion, which carried the work to compile
ton after much, ,aggravating delay. The
statue as it stands has cost about $685.
600, but the extra amount has been pro-
vided for. The statue is the work Of Re
bisso Of Cincinnati, who designed the

for weapon for Allen. They were

started to leave the postoffice, when Riley
accosted him with drawn weapon. Like
a flash Allen drew his pistol and the firing
began. Riley fred two shots and Allen
four. When the smoke cleared away

and stone by George w. Melville, the
present engineer-in-chief of the navy, over
the spot where the body of the brave De
Long and his companions were first bur-
led. The amount of money required will
be small.
1t is proposed to duplicate this tomb in
every respect in Woodlawn cemetery, to
which place the bodies of the brave De
Long and most Of his companions were
removed in the winter of 1SS3-S4. The
only difference between the monument
proposed to be constructed and that which
marked the original tomb of the De Long
party will be that the cross will be of cast
bronze instead of timber.

A GREAT REMEDY
For Sufferers From Piles.

Dr. Redmond, g. specialist in the
study and treatment Of Piles and rectal
diseases, recently stated that the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, the new discovery for
the cure of piles, was the most remark
able remedy he had ever seen or tried
In one respect; and that was the in
slant relief experienced in all cases, NO
matter how severe, from the moment
the remedy was applied; this was the
more surprising to him, because he had
carefully analysed the preparation and
no trace Of opium, cocaine or similar
poison could be detected
Physicians look with great favor upon
the Pyramid Pile Cure, because 1t is
rapidly taking the place Of surgical
operations and because 1t Is SO simple.
so easily applied and contains no min
eral or other poisons 80 commonly used
in pile cures.
DR.. Esterbrook reports that the Ply
ramid Pile Cure not only cures the
various forms Of Piles, but never fails
to give immediate relief on the first ap-
plication, no matter how severe the
pain or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered from piles
for years are often, astonished at the
instant relief experienced from the first
application. Another important ad-
vantage is the fact that any one can
use the remedy without detention from
business or interference with daily oc-
cupation. Sold BY druggists at so cents

Then" continued the head waiter. there
is the parlor, which is quite as big as the
ballroom. Would the lady like to see it,
No. thank you" said the man, "a bedroom

In the morning when the man went down
to breakfast he found sitting on the piazza a
good-look1ng young man with eyeglasses and
black moustache, who was reading an ltal-
ian novel. The young man got up when he
saw the newcomer and shook him warmly
by the hand
Glad to see you," he said.
Thanks said the man. I'm sure of it.
I'd be glad to anybody in a place like
this myself. Are you the other guest?"
There isn't any other guest I'm sorry to
say, replied the young man. You and your
wife are the only guests in the hotel. I'm the
manager"
oh, said the man. 'Have you been long
in the business
No" replied the manager. I'm an archi-
tect In Boston by profession, and thought I'd
try this way OF passing the summer"
I'm going today" said the guest. isn't 1t
kind of wearing to have a hotel with nobody
in it!'' 81
Not at ALL replied the manager. 81 hope
you have received all proper attention and
that your stay has been agreeable
I'm not used to having a whole hotel to
myself. replied the guest.
Il think" said the manager, that l have
read somewhere that when the king of Spain
lodges in the Escurial he has his choice OF
365 rooms. You might have had your choice
OF double that number merely by mentioning
your desire"
Don't think for a moment" exclaimed
the guest, that l am complaining about
Certainly not" interrupted the manager

II they conveyed the impression that thought
that you were unreasonably disconnected No.
my thought was rather that your remark
again illustrated the truth that true content
ment does not necessarily abide in great pal
aces or lonely splendor."
Then the man paid his bill and, with the
woman, departed.
