AMONG BRITAIN'S GREAT DEAD
Champion Prize Fighter Of England
Honored With a Tomb In West
MINISTER Abbey.

Observant visitors to Westminster
abbey may have noticed in one of the
groups of statuary near the north
door of the edifice a remarkable arm
on one of the figures. Not a few peo-
pie have thought that it was an exag-
gerated model of a limb, but, as a
matter of fact, it was actually mod
eled from the arm of verger at the
abbey, named John Burton, who at
one time was champion prizefghter
Of England.
Burton was the deans verger, and
on one occasion he was asked if he
would like to be buried in the abbey.
Burton replied in the affirmative,
and also asked that the fact that he
was champion prizefghter of Eng
land should be inscribed on his tomb.
To this the dean actually consented,
but when the time came it was de-
cided by the chapter that the inscrip-
ton should be omitted. Burton,
however, was buried in the abbey, al
though there is nothing on the tomb
stone to indicate who or what he was

ing head bellboy and of superintend-

The word experimenting" is
used advisedly, for this young man
was shown by the testimony to be
much too lofty an individual to do
any work himself. He employed six
counter girls and two check boys,
paying the girls S25 a month and the
boys $50 a month. All of these
employees were required to turn over
to the head bellboy all the money
they received in tips from the guests
of the hotel. These proved sufficient
to give the head bellboy clear in

his eight subordinates a total of

PARIsIENNEs' PROTEST.

1t is good news that the great
ladies of Paris have united in a pa
triotic league TO protest against the
bizarre ugliness of gowns and cos
tunes now made in that city, once
so justly celebrated for good taste
and refinement in matters sartorial.
Though the rage of extravaganza and
eccentricity in the fashions has seized
too strongly upon the world to be
very easily stemmed, yet the action
of these ladies, some of the most
highly placed in French society, will
have a good effect, particularly when
the racing season begins and the
crowds who gather on the lawns and
in the paddocks see how graceful and
how beautifully worn are the cos
TUNES of the high-born danes who
find it inconsistent with the dignity
of their position to adopt the ill-ad-
vised and sometimes even vulgar
modes started by some of the men
milliners of the City of Light.

And u Was Not Until the Next Morn
Ing That Housewife Discovered
Just the Reason.

She was in the habit Of cleaning
her front doorstep on Saturday
nights in order to avoid the neces-
sity of Sunday labor, and was so en-
gagged on one occasion when she was
alarmed by the squeaking Of rat.
She beat a hasty retreat into the
house, but, emboldened by a little
family counsel, and armed with a
brush, she returned to the doorstep
to slay the rodent.
Several lusty blows in the dark
ness at the doorstep had no effect be-
yond bringing forth a few more
squeaks from the invisible rat. A
kindly passer-by offered his aid, on
learning the cause of the trouble,
but his efforts with the brush were
no more effective than the females.
The rat would not be killed, nor
would it go away. 1t would do moth
ing but squeak, and at last the efforts
were given up. Next morning the
lady's neighbor, addressing her over
the backyard wall, said:
"Mrs. -, did you find an
india-rubber doll in front of your
house last night? Ny children lost
one"

FARMERS SHOULD HURRY.

Reports come that cotton is
damaging in the field and that
there is more rotten corn than
ever known before. Farmers
should see to this; they should
harvest early; lose no time: a
wet spell may come TO stay any
day. We need to save every
pound of cotton and every ear OF
corn. Cotton, when gathered,
should be placed in the dry and
kept there. No use to let the
crops stand in the field until it is
wet and cold; gather them in
early.
