BARGAINS IN TOMDSTONES.
Deafness Adopted Near
City Cemetery.

The approaches to all the cemeteries
about New York are lined with stone
yards, where headpieces may be had
on short notice and in great variety
of styles TO suit the varying tastes and
degrees of grief or sentiment on the
part Of the survivors. Tombs;ones nre
such cumbersome and heavy ware that
they are displayed at the very gates
of the graveyards for convenience in
making prompt deliveries. The de-
mand for them 10 reasonably steady
and it would not strike the casual OBJ
server that there was much stimulation
to IN eager competition in the business
of supplying them.
1t is the more surprising, therefore.
says the New York Sun, to come across
job lot of headstones at bargain
prices. Out in an eastern suburb OF th'
city on Long Island wheeling tourist
came upon an odd spectacle Of n mark
down sale of tombxtoncs the other dc!
All goods were marked in plain figures
in the regular and much approved man
ner OF the great department stores.
The prices were attractive and the man
ner OF their exhibition was enough to
tempt one TO lay in supply against
the time when in the course OF nature
he might need something in this line.
Lettered in white paint were all
styles. shapes and sizes in granite mon
umcnts-plaiu, polished and ornate.
This style, 500" VERY fine at s4s;"
"a beauty. only 1890" and "Reduced
to $780," were some of the legends. The
stonecutter stood, like aoorwalker.
among his wares, wearing an inviting
smile, while a rival dealer across the
way looked on with scorn all over his
primy face at the advanced business
methods of his neigbbor.

WANTED ST. PAUL'S ADDRESS.
4 Turkish Censor Who was Ar
the Author of Epistiss to
the Galatians.

The Athens Asty reports that Greek
benevolent society in the Turkish cap
ital recently issued printed appeal to
the Hellenic community in STEAMBOAT
for some special charitable object. The
appeal contained a citation from one Of
the epist,es Of ST. Paul TO the Galatians.
Two days after the publication OF the
circular a commissary of police from
the censor's departmr mt called upon the
printer and demanded the address Of
ST. Paul, who was to be charged with
the public utterance of seditous and po-
litically provocative language.
The printer at first was inclined to
laugh outright at the absurdity of the
request and Indictment, but as it is al
ways q little risky to venture upon
pleasantly with Turkish official he
sedately replied that st. Paul, the au-
thor of the Objectionable citation, had

commissary, who angrily exclaimed:
How dare you attempt such impudent
CT ioiery with me?" and forth iih ar
reEted the printer. Extraordinary as
it may appear, the reiteratioI OF ,h"
same simple explanation TO the censor
Ind an equally exasperating effect on
that intelligent official. and tie I'M
fortunate typographer was rocked up
for his "perverse contumacy." II was
only after the lapse Of three days and
on the urgent Intervention Of the Greek
patriarch that the printer was re-
leased.
