A FORGOTTEN President.

With monuments costing thousands OF
dollars adjoining the graves of some OF
the most obscure individuals. 1t Is hard
to realize that a man once President OF
the JJnited States lies buried IN Holly
wood cemetery here without even marx
for his grave. But such is the case. john
Tyler, of "TippecanOe and Tyler 100
fame, lies sleeping in an obscure place
and the only way i'm which the place ne
rests is known is that 1t is in the same
lot with the grave of his daughter. VINO
died before he did, and over whom fig
ure'' monument was erected
There is an interesting mystery sur
rounding the neglect to memorabilia this
man who was the honored Chief Execu-
tive of our country for nearly four years
John Tyler, whose father was known as
the bosom friend" of Thomas Jefferson.
died in 1852, and In his will dated Oct. H.
1859. was the following provision:
Il empower my dear wife to make out
of my estate suitable provision for my
burial, and let my body be consigned TO
the tomb in the earthof the county Wnere
was born. there to repose until the day
Of resurrection. My wife will select the
spot in Sherwood Forest, CHS residence),
and mark it by an uncostly monument of
granite or marble. An inscription will be
found in the paper inclosing this"
Little did the ex-President think that
after this modest request for the disposal
of his body his grave would be so wretch
eddy neglected by his admiring country
men, and it evidently was not the inten-
ton. for the General Assembly of Vir-
sinia, Immediately after his death, adopt
ed suitable testimonial. which closed as
follows:
Resolved, that, with the consent of his
family, his remains be deposited In Hol-
lywood cemetery, in the city OF Rich
mond, near the remains Of James Mon
roe, and that the Governor of this state
be authorized to cause a suitable mOnu-
ment to be erected to his memory"
This explains how President Ty!er's
body came to be placed in Hollywood
cemetery. though he requested other
wise. and the explanation for the neglect
of the grave probably lies in the fact that
about that time the Governor of the Old
Dominion state had his hands full with

Victims of excessive drinking whose
behavior sometimes takes them into
Judge Andrews court have within the
last three months gotten into a way of
appealing the cases when they are con-
victed in the police court for intoxica-
ton. City Marshal Morse says that
until recently appeals in these cases
were rare and that the object is not
clearly understood. In Andrscoggin
county appeals have been very fire.
quent recently, for there is Jail work
shop there. Persons who are held for
the supreme court are not obliged to
work so the fellows who are to be sent
over for intoxication appeal, loaf away
Is or more days and then withdraw
the appeal. They are given credit for
the number of days they have been IN
and therefore only have to work in the
shop a few days. The withdrawal of
the appeal of course saves the county
what expense there would be for trial
in the supreme court. But as there is
no such inducement in Kennebec
county the appeals are for some other
purpose.

an axiom. The young Gar of all the

much flesh and blood and not enough
of iron in his makeup. When he ac-
cepted the crown declined by his older
brother he was at his best physically
and mentally. There appeared in him
much Of his grandfather's hereditary
robustness. But the perplexities, bur-
thens and ever threatening dangers of
a few months have proved too much for
his youth and inexperience and it is
said that his nervous system is already
wrecked. His empire, ever torn by the
Discussions of his mobiles, may in a very
short time be in the hands of a junta
Of their number with the young ruler
left only as a mere figurehead. 1t is re-
ported that in confronting his advisors
last week over the financial schemes of
his minister of finance that in being
forced to yield his own will and judg-
ment he broke completely down and

or of Catharine left in the Car who
