A Queer GraVestOne.

Henry Jacobs of Lincoln, Kan,
has erected a curious monument
over the grave of his son, who was
of a rowing disposition. He had a
stone cut in the shape of an old fash
toned travelling satchel. On the plate
in the center of each side is the
name, 81. S. Jacobs" Just above
the name is this inscription: "Here
Is Where He Stopped Last" IN
derneath the name are the date of
death and his age. The stone is
white marble, and the base is big
bowlder which the father hauled
from his farm and rolled on the
grave. When questioned as to why
he chose such unique design, the
old man said: "Waal, Jim, he were
a sort of a rovin Teller, and allow
ed that this design would bout suit
him. He never stopped very long
before in any one place, but the last
time see him he were at the grave
yard, and I jes' concluded that he
might stay thar long while. So I
had a sign printed on ther stone
sayin whar he was last seen and
whar he ought to be now. New

Wednesday, February II. The story told
aud of greed OF gold. IL is constructed
on original lines and cannot be said to
approach the stereotyped form of inelo-
drama at any time. Quite rs much in
terest is felt, however, in the marvellous
scenic aids az in the story itself. In the
first act II section of the great Chicago
fire IL reproduced with wonderful fidelity
to detail and thrilling effect. In order
to render the counterfei: as complete AS
possible Il hundred things arc being done
at tie same time. Hordes of excited
people flee from the burning district,
carrying their most precious belongings
plunging horsemen, flying cabs, terrific
explosions, falling walls, falling embers,
grooming wind and q hundred other mat
ters of detail render the stage illusion
perfect. Not less worthy of praise is the
famous approaching engine scene which
is said by many to be the hest thing in
the play. 1t is absolutely unlike in

names and exploit his ill-temper. but
Mr.. Jones was in that very common,
very human, yet very cruel frame Of
mind that finds a satisfaction in vent
ing its discomfort and ill-temper on
some other human being; and although
he loved his wife and was in the main
kind husband, yet when he was In one

II was good half mile to the station.
and when Mr.. Jones reached 1t he was
in a glow of perspiration. besides be-
ing almost exhausted with his walk
through the deep unbroken snow. Ar
irving there, he learned what he had
not suspected before, that the storra
was one of the heaviest and most dis
astrous of the season; that wires were
down in all directions and that no
trains had passed or were likely TO pass
for some hours. The alternative
seemed to be either to stay in the cold
and dismal station or TO return home.
The idea of a morning at home was not
very alluring to Mr.. Jones. He was at
home so little except on Sundays that
he really felt quite awkward and out of
place there at any time but evenings
and Sundays. Then he had not forgot
ten the encounter with Robbie. nor for

were full of life and spirit and their sill

air. He was accompanied by his wife,

she said. IF only had good stove, and
the pump fixed, sure I'd stay. gave
the mistress warning this morning"
Again Mr.. Jones conscience pricked
him. How often had his wife asked him
to be sure and send the plum Der to fix
that pump. But it had seemed a very
small thing to him that stove and pump
were out of order. and so he had PAID
no attention to the matter.
Passing into the furnace-room his eve
fell on poor old Hans, the man whom he
paid dollar week to take care Of the
furnace. He was on his knees in front
of the furnace trying with all his poor
old strength to shake the heavy CRATE
by means of the iron lever. 1t was pa
thetic face and figure the old man pre-
sented. Bridget had overheard Mr..
Jones message about the furnace and
had conveyed II to Hans. who had re-
ceived it as the knell of his hopes; for
the poor little dollar that he thus earned
was all that enabled him to keep peace
with the shrewish daughter-in-law who
gave him shelter and bed. But for
some reason the shaking of the furnace
had been almost impossible for more
than week. and old Hans was in de-
spair. When he saw Mr.. Jones he
thought the end had come, and the ex-
preston of his face as he looked up at
him was ludicrously appealing.
whats the matter, Hans? Has the
CRATE got stuck? Let me try it,"
Mr.. Jones was a strong man. but he
could not bulge the furnace crate. In

THE SLEIGH RIDE.

merry smile told of her enjoyment of
the ride. On learning the state of af-
fairs regarding the trains, he said:
well, wife. it's no use fretting; there
maynt be a train till noon. Let's 60
home and get the children and have
jolly sleigh-ride. 1t will be real lark
to have an extra morning with them.
Here, Jones, jump in and we'll take you
home"
Mr. Jones climbed into the sleigh,
well pleased to be saved the laborious
walk home. But what affected him
most was the unaffected good humar
of his friend and his friends wife.
Both were enthusiastically remarking
on the beauty of the morning, the trees
covered with icicles to the tip of every
slender, leafiess branch; on the bright
ness and intense blue of the sky; on
the feathery snowdrifts piled on every
side. Mr.. Jones had noticed none of
these things; he had been affected only
by the inconvenience of the walking
and the loss of his day in the city. But
such good humor as that shown by his
neighbors was contagious, and, since
his attention was directed to 1t. he real
was truly magnificent. mo artist
could ever begin to represent its beau
ty." said his neighbours wife. "What
were all the art galleries of the world
compared to this?"
BY the time Mr.. Jones was set down
az his own door, his feelings had I'M
dergone an entire change. He felt
ashamed of his petuance. and especial
ly of the slap he had given Robbie. He
determined to find the little fellow and
make the best amends he could. He
also felt glow of kindly sympathy for
his wife in her care for the babies that
was somewhat unusual to the hurried
business man. Yet he shrank from
meeting his wife directly; he was net
ness of his irritability and language of
the morning, so he decided to go
through the dining-room, which was
still very cold, and make detour
through the basement and kitchen to
look at the furnace.
In the kitchen Bridget. who had long
been the faithful maid of all work
stood gazing into the cooking stove,
where smouldered a few black dying
Goals. Her countenance wore an ex-
preston that was a mixture of distress
and anger. An hour before Mr.. Jones
would have begun at once to rate her
sharply for her badly prepared break
fast. but now he only said:
why, Bridget. what's the matter
with the stove?"
We'll sir. sure there's no dhraft at all
at all, and whin thry to make quick
fire there's the way it serves me. Sure
it's the CRATE that's broken and dropped
down that chokes the fire. poor CELL
can't do any cooking on that stove"
Mr.. Jones' conscience pricked him.
His wife had told him several times
about the broken CRATE; had written
down the name and number of the
stove and begged him send it from the
city. but he had forgotten IL. He saw
the impossibility of doing any good
work with such poor instrument as
this. and then he said:
