How, Standing Before the Memorial
Tablet In Trinity Church Unrecog-
nlzed, She Heard a Tribute to
Her Husbands Greatness.

Some seventy years ago some or
those who held in high esteem the
services and memory of Alexander
Hamilton caused suitable tablet to
his memory to be set into one of the
panels of Trinity church. New York
city. The grave of Hamilton, and
the modest tombstone which sur
mounted it, which even to this day
draws many visitors TO the world
famous churchyard at the head OF
Wall street, had in the late forties
displayed some signs Of the ravages
of time, and the admirers Of Hamilton
of that day reasoned that IL modest
tablet to Hamilton's memory were
placed in a position upon the interior
wall of Trinity, there 1t would remain,
and his memory be preserved and
kept green in the hearts OF his coun-
trymen, as long as the church build
ing itself stood. And ever since the
tablet has been In place a day never
passes without it's silent group before
the memorial.
One OF the great admirers OF Ham
ifton at the period of the erection OF
the tablet was Henry r. Mygatt. from
about 1890 until 1870 one of the great
lawyers OF New York state. and. In
fact. Of the nation. He was associat-
ed either as Joint counsel or as oppos-
ing counsel at one time or another
with nearly all OF the lawyers who In
the mid-years of the past century
maintained the high reputation which
the bar OF New York had gained in
the days Of Alexander Hamilton. Mr..
Mygatt was associated with United
States Senator Daniel s. Dickinson OF
New York, who was so nearly nomi'
mated for vice-president upon the
ticket with Lincoln in 1864. and who
was one OF the great orators OF his
day.

Storekeeper In New York Custom
House Resented Abuse of General
Grant, to the Delight of Col
iector Tom Murphy.

Tom Murphy is at this day almost
forgotten. But forty years ago ne
was one OF the closest of the friends
of President Grant. the intimate friend
OF General Chester A. Arthur, the col
lector OF customs at the port of New
York, and influential as Republican
leader. Murphy had gained fortune
as manufacturer of hats. He was a
jolly. witty. very generous Irish-Amer-
lean. quaint In some Of his ways and
characterized by an intense affection
nnd admiration for General Grant.
General Grant took great liking
for Murphy the first time he met him.
He was fond OF hearing Murphy talk
he was greatly amused with Muir
phys stories and keenly relished the
wit OF this good natured, warm -souled
Irish-American. 1t was an act OF pure
friendship and nothing else which led
President Grant to appoint Tom Muir
ply collector Of customs at the port
OF New York. Murphy had. however,
gained so many friends among the
Republican leaders of that time, be-
ing especially friendly with Senator
Conkling and General Arthur that his
appointment. although not recommend
ed by any politician, was warmly ap-
proved by the leaders.
At the time Murphy became col
lector of the port, the storekeeper in
the New York custom house service
was man Of the name of George Bar
ker. He was as ardent an admirer OF
President Grant as was Murphy him
self, although he was so quiet In his
manner, so reticent In his speech, that
none outside of his family knew the
extent Of his admiration ard the depth
of his affection for President Grant
One day Mr.. Barker entered the Of
flee of one of the subordinates under
Collector Murphy, the officer who was
in Immediately authority over that de-
partment OF the custom house in which
Mr.. Barker had been placed. He said
to his superior officer:

for a grievous mira ction of duty"
What was it?" the officer asked.

ploye of the custom house to be in
formed that he expected all of us to
show the utmost courtesy and consid-
Grafton to every citizen who had bust
ness In the custom house. He inti-
mated to us that there was no infrac-
ton of the rules which would cause
him greater displeasure or result In
the exercise Of greater discipline than
a breach Of courtesy or politeness.
Well, sir, I have disobeyed that rule.
1 have come to report myself"
How did you break this ruler" Mr..
Barker was asked
"Well, 1t was In this way: One of
the large importers Of New York came
to my room on business and In the

General Grant was not a great gen.

statement back and apologize. He

Once upon time jackdaw found
some beautiful peacock feathers lying
on the ground. so he thought he would
deck himself with them. Now" said
he, my friends will admire me, and
I'll be their leader in dress"
Then she strutted about. But II was
no use. She was only n jackdaw. and
all the other birds knew II and made
fun OF her. They jeered and Knocked
at her, and the wisest birds In the
tree cried: "She is pretending to be
something she is not. She is not true
to her colors She is unfit for our COM
pany"
Lets pluck or her borrowed finery,"
said another when stripped she will
appear in her true light"
Thus was the jackdaw exposed, and
she never got over the disgrace. When
she was dying she called her children
to her and gave them this advice:
Never pretend 10 be what you are
not.
do not be like some boys and girls
know, who think that fine dresses
will make people admire them.
"A Jackdaw should not try TO look
like peacock, for she'll be nothing
more than Jackdaw, and very fool
