GRANTS TOMB DRAWS MANY
Visitors From Every Part Of the United
States Pay Homage TO Crest Col
dler's Memory.

Since the war there has been a great
increase in the number Of visitors to
Grants tomb. They come from all
parts OF the United States, from Alaska
to Florida. II would seem that no
stranger to New York city fails to visit
the shrine to pay homage to the greft
general. They arrive slngly, with their
families or friends, or in delegations
organized especially for such pilgrim
age. Between 900 and LOO persons
visit the tomb daily, and about 4OO,-
900 a year.
The tomb is taken care Of by a Gus
todian, an assistant custodian and two
attendants. George d. Burnside, whose
father was a cousin Of General Burn
side OF Civil war fame, Is the custodi-
an. He has more than an Official In
terest in the sacred edifice. When II
was being built he was foreman Of con-
structlon, and II was his duty to see
that the blocks of stone and marble
we're laid with proper care and pre-
cision. Because he had a great part
In building the tomb and understood
Its construction better than most men,
the Grants Tomb Memorial association
selected him as custodian, and when
the structure was completed in 1897,
he entered upon his duties. When II
WIS dedicated by President McKin-
ley, General Horace Porter handed
Burnside its keys, and II was Burn
side who sealed with his own hands
the great sarcophagus containing the
remains Of General Grant.
During the past year." he said
"many soldiers and sailors visited the
tomb. Indeed, about one-quarter Of our
visitors were men in the service"
Since the tomb has been opened
regular visitor once year Is the aged
woman who for years served as maid
to Mrs. Grant. She comes every year
on Mrs. Grants birthday bearing a
wreath Of flowers. One day an aged
negro hobbled into the mausoleum. He
explained to Mr.. Burnside that he had
served General Grant during the Civil
war. He told with great deal OF
pride how he had held the generals
horse. and what good boss the gen.
eral always had been. Grant, he said,
was a most modest and unassum-
Ing man. The old negro knelt rever-
emily before the sarcophagus and
wept bitterly.
HE treated me all right" he sobbed.
"He treated me all right, deed he
did. Use eighty-seven, / is, and Use
pore old man, but Use glad I come
here and seen this beautiful tomb,

PAID FOR DECENT BURIAL

A good ghost story comes from New
Brunswick. Two men were out camp

night one OF them awoke and saw sit

dying fire a figure dressed In an eight
eenth century costume.

camp lay, and told him that he would
find his (the speaker's) bones there.
He ordered him to bury them decently.
and take as his reward what he found
In the cave.
The figure then vanished. At dawn
the two comrades set to work. They
found the entrance to cave which
had been almost blocked by a land
slide. Inside was a skeleton with a
massive gold ring on its bOny finger,
and around the skeleton lay various
books of dates varying from 1859 to
1885. There was also a manuscript
giving the locality and description Of a
treasure buried nearby, which the
lucky finders duly dug up and appro-
prlated.

He Gave Up His Monocle.

A certain Australian regiment had
among Its officers an old regular who
was settled In Australia when wGr
broke out. The battalion to which he
was posted duly arrived In Egypt, and
the first night In Cairo the major stag
gered the mess by appearing with a
monocle.
No one In Australia had ever sus-
pected him subject to such an optical
or social weakness, but with his re-
turn to the Old World the major re-
turned to the ways Of his youth.
The next day an audacious Amaze
subaltern went into Cairo, purchased
two dozen monocles, and that evening
at mess the major found every officer,
including even his G. o., solempy
sporting a single eyeglass.

washingtoD.-The claim Of the
Irish Republic to recognition ms an in
dependent Government was brought to
Congress again and was debated In
militant fashion through a tempestu-
Gus session Of the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs. A crowd which
damned the committee room and block
ed adjoining corridors punctuated pro-
ceedlngs with cheers and with boots
of disapproval as the opposing speak
ers presented their arguments, and a
number of times threw the session into
disorder by yelling gratultous advice
to the committee and witnesses. The
crowd included leaders of the cause
of Irish freedom in this country and
manifested in various ways its sym
pathy with the plea for recognition.
The occasion was committee consider
alton of a bill by Representative w.
f. Mason, Illinois, Republican, which
would appropriate funds for dispatch
of diplomatic and consular repre-
sentatives to the Government set up by
insurgent Irish Republicans.
Its supporters declared It presented

charges Of prO-GermaniSm on the part
Of Irish Republican leaders and GER

try threw the meeting into a furore,
which the committee quleted with diff
ficulty after the chairman had warned
against insults TO witnesses. Interrupt
lions so prolonged the hearing that the
committees plan of concluding was
abandoned, and the arguments will be
resumed. Justice Daniel +. COhalan,
