An Expensive Death Vault.

The heirs Of the late Charles Pratt,
a rich millionaire who died some time
ago in Brooklyn, decided to build an
expensive vault for the last resting
place of his ashes. The vault will be
constructed of the finest quality of
marble and will be elaborate in de-
sign. 1t will cost 100000, in ad-
dition to which the sum of $50, 900
will be set aside for the proper care
and maintenance of this handsome
monumental structure. In further
ance of this plan agreed upon by the
heirs part of Mr.. Elatt's estate near
Glen Cove, L. L., has been set aside
as a private cemetery and there the
vault will be erected. Atlanta Con-
stitution.

famous of all Japanese robbers, Ishl.

house to kill and steal, was charmed
by the smile of baby which reached
out hands to him, and that he re.

Hearn. at is not hard to believe this
story. Every year the police records
tell OF compassion shown to children
by professional criminals. Some
months ago terrible murder case was
reported IN the local papers-the
slaughter Of household by robbers.
Seven persons had been literally hewn
to pisces while asleep; but the police
discovered little boy quite unharmed,
crying alone in a pool of blood; and
they found evidence unmistakable that
the men who slew must have taken
great care not to hurt the child"
