do you know" said the tombstone
cutter as he clipped away az the last
letter Of the last word of the familiar
inscription "At Rest, that he was carv-
ing ~ the granite" do YOU know that
when ! first began carving these words
II tombstones good many years ago.
when was younger and the world
seemed full of hopefulness, it used TO
sometimes seem 10 me as il people had
EN- put on, as you might say, on gen
eral principles, because they seemed nice
and appropriate there, while really the
deceased might not have had snch a.
terrible hard time In life, and would
much rather be not at rest but up and
around among folks?
That's the way these words used
TO strike me when / WAS younger, but
now, after considerable experience of
life, look at them differently. Now
realize that they may truely mean
what they say, and be not merely an
81 propriate form; that the one over
whose grave they are seen may in truth
be glad to lie there under the stone,
at last at rest.
Because, you seeas we are liklv
to discover when we grow older-this
life Is not road strewn with roses
for all Of us; and besides those who
have been worn out in life's struggles
or in its simple work we find those
who have been disappointed, or mis-.
understood, or unappreciated, or those
who have been broken by some great
sorrow.
$50, while in many cases, indeed,
that AT Rest carved on the tombstone
may be but a form, or have been
prompted simply by love or affection,
and yet, in many cases, placed there
most lovingly, it tells a true story,
and always, now, from my present
point of view, look at ii not lightly,
but with sympathetic heart. Many
gentle soul, never stunning may yet
be glad to lay down life's burdens.
But, unhappily as to most Of us
life adjusts its burdens to our aging
shoulders and deadens us TO mental
cold, not only in our blood but in our
power Of apprehension of life's troubles
or IL may be that, blessed still with the
possession of all our faculties, we are
row endowed with kind philosophy
that makes us at once less exacting
Of others and more considerate, and
gives to us full measure Of enjoyment
In short, nature may be very kind to
us, keeping us to the very end through
years that may seem to us never declin-
ing but.ever happy and hopeful.
"As. for all my years, and despite
my calling, the world seems 70 me this

/ The police say they have discovered
that Sharp has a wife n a family
whom he left in Chattanooga, Tenn.
They also charge that the woman
who has called upon him every day
and represented herself as his wife is
the wife of a well-known banker in
Seattle, Wash, who had been in East
Orange with Sharp until his arrest.
Pinned down to dates and names,
the woman would say nothing con-
corning her marriage to Sharp, further
thar to declare emphatically that she
was his wife. Her real name is Tenn
pie, declare the police, who have been
Investigating her record.
Who Sharp's companion is, where she
came from and what move she will
make next no one seems to know.
Campbell, the detective from Atlanta,
declares tina Sharp left a wife and a
boy IA years old in Chattanooga. Pre-
vious to his alleged %swindling opera
lions in Atlanta Sharp was a livery
man in that city.
The police say that they believe the
woman is the daughter of Major Reno,
who was sent with reinforcements to
relieve General Custer in 1876. This
she denies, saying that her name is
Corbitt.
Code Name "Pattie."
That she will be we'll cared for is in
timated in a telegram sent to the pris-
oner by a friend in Seattle, in which
assistance for "Pattie" is offered either
through the sender or Temple" Pat
tie" declared Sharp, is the name of
the woman who was with him when he
was arrested.
Sharp was laying his plans to go to
Nevada, say the police, when he was
nabbed by detectives here. His aged
mother, whom he has Impoverished, ac-
cording to her statement, by his career,
was to provide the money to take him
and his companion to the Western
State. She declares now that she has
spent a fortune to keep her son from
disgrace, and is at the end of her re-
sources. The Camden officials bear her
out in this statement. declaring that
from a life of luxury several years age
she is now living in an obscure section
of the city.
The age of Sharp's mysterious com
panion has furnished the police another
cause for mystery. According to theii
J statements, she is at least fifteen years
his senior. Sharp gave his age as A
years.
