UNITED IN DEATH.
Baltimore Couple Expire Within 3
Hours of Each Other.

BALTIMORE, November 6.-Their eyes
closed in death. which claimed both with
in eight hours of each other Mr.. Leonard
Buttner, ninety-two years old, and his
wife, Mrs. Margaret Buttner. eighty-six
years old lie side by side in the little par
lor OF their home. 1727 Bank street. both
victims of heart trouble and the infirmi-
ties of advanced age. Mr. Buttner died
at 10 o'clock Thursday night. while his
wife died at o'clock yesterday morning.
Their death was a touching close to
their lives which had been interviewer
around each other with great love ana
affection. Through all the years OF their
married careers Mr.. and airs. Buttner had
never been separated. and even In their
last sickness as they lay side by side on
their bed, each urged their phystcian-Dr.
George L. Wilkins-to do all In his power
to save the other.
Although Mrs. Buttner was OF a delicate
constitution, Mr.. uBttner was seldom sfck.
and the illness which ended In his death
was the only serious one he had ever bad.
Until Friday morning of last week, when
he became Ill. he had worked daily in his
little shoe shop I'm his home. Mrs. Butt
ner was taken Ill Tuesday night:
A strange feature Of their fatal Illness
was that neither seemed to realize that
the condition of the other was serious.
though each was prepared for death. a
few moments before his death Mr.. Buttner
stretched out his hand In farewell to his
wife. Before his death, however, Mrs.
Buttner lapsed into Inconsistencies ana
thus did not know that her husband had
died.
Mr.. Buttner was born I'm Bavaria Sep
TENDER Is. 1917. and came to this country
when a Young man. After living In New
York a few months. he came to Baltimore
and lived in the eastern section Of the city
all his life. He married Mrs. Buttner
fifty-fye years ago. two years after the
death of her first husband, MIR. Henry
Walters. by whom she had one son. Mr.
Henry Walters. who survives. Mrs. Butt.
ner was born in Hessen. Germany. ana

Parks of Australian Cities.

From the Westminster Gazette.
Australians. with a fine climate, believe
In enjoying themselves. and there are
plenty of facilities. Thus in Sydney there
are parks and squares and public gardens
with a total area Of 4,335 acres. Sixteen
miles from the city-a shilling excursion
train fare-is the picturesque National
Park. containing 36.S10 acres. preserved
i'm their natural state. similar reserve
called Kurin-gal Chase, comprising 353OO
acres OF land, chiefly of densely wooded
hills skirting for many miles around nu-
merous tidal arms of Broken bay. Is also
held for the enjoyment OF the public for
ever. Melbourne has no fewer THAI & 4Ou
acres of recreation grounds In or near the
city. Adelaide Is surrounded by a belt OF
park lands. and has about 1900 acres set
apart for the public benefit; nor are Perth
and Hobart and Brisbane and some of the
fine inland towns less well provided -
