has not rs yet hit upon n uniform meth

ington avenue car, n conductor, who
had evidently given much attentions
10 the subject, o special distinctions
for himself by the use of the word

is no rose without n thorn. Among his

ricd n large bundle, doubtless the

asked him TO stop Mt n certain street,

marked asperity: who's yer calm
madame? Watcher mean by insultin'
me? I'd have you know I'm n lady, I

~ observed: "She amt no lady, any

The recent communication between

IN which the former called the attention
OF the latter to the neglected grave of

coin, has attracted attention from all

located on n hill of gradual ascent and
is right in the middle OF the woods,
about q mile from Lincoln City, q little
station on the Air Line road In Spencer
county, Ind. 1t is inclosed by an iron
fcace, which separates It from n mum
Der of other graves around it, and has
n neat hcadstone which gives the name,
age, etc, of the occupant. An inscrip-
ton also says: Erected by n Friend
of Her Martyrcd Son, 1879" 1t is com
patatively isolated, and any improve
ment made in its surroundings would
not prove of any great value.
In order to fttingly honor the dead
the people OF that vicinity suggest that
the remains be taken up by the state
and reinforced at indianapolis, or that
the United States RENTER them in some
national cemetery. AS1,ooO shaft could
be placed over it where it now stands
and ten persons in n year would not see
