TREASURED MEMORIES"

Not all of the garlands of war are of
laurel and palm; there are others of with
cred and bitter leaves which do not crown
the victors or repose on the graves of those
who have given their lives for their coun-
try. They are worn by the women who
have inherited the legacy Of sorrow and
loneliness through the death Of a son,
father or brother in war.
They cling in their bereavement TO any,
thing which may keep fresh the memory
of these dear ones. Their letters portraits
anything they have worn or owned, are
treasured as Of priceless value. and on such
a day as the one appointed TO honor the
something of the real presence of the heroes
who have fallen.
To express these thoughts on canvas Is
the motive of Edgar S. Camerons picture

BROUGHT UP TO HATE DURR.
Tradition In tre Family OF . Visitor at
HamiltOn's Grave,

A guest at an uptown hotel asked the
cleik the other day how to get to Hamiton's g
grave. When he received the informa-
tion he said he had been there several
times, but thought maybe there might be
some new route.
Il never come to New York without
going to see Hamilton's grave" he added.
Il see; an admirer of Hamilton, eh?

Aaron Burr. III tell you about It
I'VE live not far from the island in the
low down on Blennerhasset. My grand
father woIke d for Blennerhasset when he
was boy, and he piloted Burr away from
the island.
when Burr parted from my grandfather
he told him he would send him some money
for his trouble, but he never did. My
grandfather wrote to Burr about 1t some
time after the incident, but Burr never
answered him.
When Blennerhasset was a ruined man
my grandfather, then mere lad, cursed
Burr for his course. When he heard that
Burr had killed Hamilton in duel he swore
get to him. While Burr was on trial in
Richmond my grandfather made trip
there for the purpose Of carrying out his
! threat The opportunity, however. did not
present itself, and my grandfather returned
home.
when he reared his family he taught
them to curse Burr's name. My father
carried out his fathers wish and taught his
boys to execrate Burr as long as they
lived
AT one time some Of us boys entered into
a conspiracy to steal Burr's body from
Princeton and burn it. We actually came
East to carry out our plan, but got scared
away.
"Then got to reading about Alexander
Hamilton and to love his name and his
tory. Instead of trying to steal Burr's
body concluded would honor the grave
Of Hamilton
so when and my wife come to New
York We always make 1t point to go to
Hamilton's grave. This year we con-
cluded to visit it on Decoration day and

Leary, the locomotive engineer. who died
the other day at Kansas City. Mo-. OF in
jures received in a wreck on the Union
Pacific, WAS noted among the railroad me z
of Mexico for his record breaking train
runs.
He seemed to have a mania for making
fast time. and this wa his undoing. II
caused him to leave one place after another

this country as being little short OF the

taking the through passenger train from
this city to Ell Paso 10 hours and Is minutes,
with twenty-one stops. The regular rum
ming time is 8 hours and rs minutes. The
distance is 22s miles.
Leary had been running "a fireman and
extra engineer on the Mexican Central
out Of Chihuahua, when one day the regular
passenger train from the City Of Mexico
arrived at chihuahua 81 hours late.
Learys reputation for fast running was
we'll known and he was marked up to land
the train across the border. 1t was thought
that the condition Of the track would war
rant him in making up probably thirt ty
minutes Of the lost time, but II was not
dreamed that he would attempt to smash
all fast running records In Mexico.
When the locomotive was run out to be
hooked TO the train, Leary gave her q
