189O.

St. Thomas's Memorial chapel in WestBed Bank was dedicated on Monday byBishop John Scarborough of the NewJersey diocese, assisted by a number ofother clergymen. The chapel was builtby Mrs. E. M. Durham of Red- Bank inmemory of her son, Thomas l£oightDurham, who so suddenly met his deathon July 9th, 1890. The young man wasorganist of St. Murk's church, Brooklyn,and had composed Te Deums and otherchurch music. He was a natural musi-cian and had bright prospects before him.He was visiting his parents that fatefulsummer, and on the afternoon of July9th he took a sail in his canoe. A squallcame up, the frail craft' capsized, andMr. Durham was drowned. His bodywas recovered a day or two after.' The parents of the unfortunate young

man were grief-stricken over, their loss.They decided to erect" some substantialmonument whicH*. would be a lovingmemorial W their son, and which wouldat the same time be a place for continu-ing the religious work in which be was

. ao deeply interested. As an outcome oftWoty pl«'w« St. Thomases Memorial chapelwaaerected. t .

The edifice is situated close to the Dur-ham cottage at the foot of Catharinestreet, overlooking the spot whereThomas K. Durham died. It faces thesouth and is built in the Gothic style ofarchitecture. There is a small tower fora bell, which will probably be put inshortly. The chapel has a seating ca-pacity of one hundred, but enough chairscan' be placed' in the aisles and in therear BO that the building will comforta-bly seat 135 people. The wainscoting,ceiling and floor are of bard pine, thepewB being made of ash. The windowaare of both stained and ground glass.The walls are sand finished. ' The chapel

- is lighted by kerosene lamps in bracketsnear the windows, and a stove furnishesthe heating power. The communiongmvicu, altar cross, receiving^ basin andfont are memorials for other persons.It is a neat and cosy edifice and a beauti-ful memorial. The builders were Cyre-mua T. and Charles Clayton. The cor-ner-stone was laid last July and thechapel was completed last week.

A large number of persons were pres-ent at the dedicatory exercises. Theministers present besides the bishop wereBev. S. M. Haskins of St. Mark's, Brook-lyn ; Eev. William M. Eeilly of Plain-field, and Bev. Robert C. Boach of Eaton-town. All of the clergymen participatedin the services. Hiss Ada Terry wasorganist.

Bishop Scarborough tendered his. thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Durham for the

memorial gift to the New Jersey diocese.He said that such a structure was morelasting and far more useful than a costlymonument over the loved one's grave.The memorial shaft would in time crum-ble to pieces, while- the good deeds ac-complished through the chapel would beeverlasting. The bishop's words whenhe alluded to the dutiful son and usefuland upright Christian, brought tears tothe eyes of many in the congregation.

Bev. 8. M. Haskirm, pastor of thechurch of which Mr. Durham was organ-ist, spoke in the highest termB of theyoung man. He said his music was ex-cellent and that his compositions were

_ still being used in the church. He spokeof him as a leader among the young menof the parish, and that the weekly meet-ings were often left in his charge. Hecongratulated the .parents for their wisejudgment in erecting such a suitablemonument in memory of their son.

Services will be held in the chapel onWednesday nights at 7:30 o'clock andSunday afternoons at 3:00 o'clock. Theywill be conducted by alay reader. Oncea month the rector of Trinity churchwill administer the sacrament.

Sled Wnlle Betarning From Church..James Kirkland, a young man in the

employ of Mrs. Joseph Ely of Freehold,died on Sunday of last week while drivinghotae from church. He had not com-plained of being sick and drove Mrs. Ely

/bo church as usual. On their way homehe suddenly fell back insensible. .Thehorses were stopped and assistance wasprocured, bat to no avail. He was 23years old and was strictly temperate inbis habits. His brother died just as sud-denly several years ago.

About $2,£00 Paid Ontbythe Town-•hip on Saturday.

Last Saturday morning the townshipcommittee was to have met to pass andpay bills against the township. BurdHance, one of the town committeemen,had not returned from his wedding tour,and Capt. Charles B. Parsons, anothermember of the committee, was in NewYork and could not be present until theafternoon session; consequently W.Tabor Parker was alone during themorning session. He examined the billsas they were presented, and when after-noon came and Capt. Parsons arrived,the bills were paid.

When the township committee wasorganized last spring Capt. Parsons waselected township treasurer, and CollectorEsek White was notified to turn over tohim the township moneys as fast as theywere received. When the committeemet on Saturday, therefore, they wereprepared to pay all bills as fast as theywere presented. Capt Parsons broughthis check book with him, and as fast asthe bills-were passed and endorsed as cor-rect by the township clerk, the checkswere drawn by Capt.' Parsons and thebills were paid. This method was adopt-ed in order that people having billsagainst the township might get theirmoney promptly. This was the firsttime in the history of the township thatbills were paid on presentation. Therewas a scramble for place when the checksfirst began to be given out, but after afew minutes things quieted down andthe people waited good-humoredly fortheir turn. About $2,500 was paid out.All the bills could not be passed upon onSaturday, and the committee decided tomeet again on Thursday of this week to

up the work.

A LIVELY MEETING AHEAD.BUSINESS TO COME BEFORE THE

FREEHOLDERS.,

County Clerk Haleht Won't AcceptBi> Seduced Bill Some Freehold-ers Want more Bridge Money—Building County Road*.

The next meeting of the board ofchosen freeholders will probably be avery' interesting ,one. County ClerkHaight has refUBed to accept the bill forhis services in the late election, afterthe bill was cut down by the freeholders.The bill originally was for $10 for eachelection district, and the board cut itdown to $6. The county clerk's workconsisted in seeing that the electiontickets were printed and forwarded tothe clerk of each township in the county.It is not thought that the freeholders willrescind their former action, though anumber of them are in favor of passingthe bill at the price originally chargedby the county clerk. At the rate of $ 10for each election district the' countyclerk would receive $380 for doing thework, which could readily be done in aday.

Another matter which will come' be-fore'the freeholders is that of extra ap-propriations for bridges. In a numberof the townships the bridge appropria-tions have been exhausted, and the free-holders of those townships have beencasting longing eyes at the appropria-tion of $15,000 which was raised to buytbe Seabright drawbridge. As theamount of the award was not accepted bythe bridge company, that money has notbeen spent, and these freeholders wantto use it up in building bridges in theirtownships. An application for a newbridge across the South Shrewsbury, attbe southern end of tbe bluff, has beenmade, the evident intention of the free-holders being to build a new. bridgethere. In case such a- law should bepassed, tbe f 15,000 now in hand wouldbe needed for that structure; or it maybe possible, if the present bridge com-pany sees that a neWbridge is likely tobe built, that the bondholders will agreeto sell the bridge for tbe amount of theaward, and in that case .the present ap-propriation would be required for thepurchase of the bridge.

Another thing which will be placedbefore tbe freeholders is the questionof building a macadamized road fromLong Branch to Freehold, with a branchrunning from Tinton Falls to Red Bank.It is believed that county bonds could besold bearing four per cent interest, andthis would make the interest on thebonds very little if any more than thecost of keeping the present road in order.The present board of freeholders are notlikely to take the project into favorableconsideration; but will rather prefer to,leave the matter to the new board,which will be elected next March.There will be a big crowd of hustlingbusiness men from Long Branch at thenext meeting of the freeholders, andthere will probably be representativesfrom other townships in favor of thework. The matter will unquestionablybe carried into the spring elections nextyear, and a heavy vote will be castagainBt the freeholders who are opposedto the improvement. Already the mat-ter is taking organized shape, and byMarch there is expected to be an organi-zation in each township that will volefor any freeholder, regardless of poli-tics, who pronounces Bquarely in favorof county roads.

A Fine

Merry Christmas !Day after to-morrow is Christmas.

This is peculiarly the children's holiday—the festival in which they find morepleasure than in all the other holidaysof the yeer combined. A holiday lessboisterous in its sports than the Fourthof July, more tender in its associationsthan St. Valentine's day, more holy inits spirit than Decoration day or NewYears, and. less gross in its pleasures thanThanksgiving day. It is the day of alldays for the children, not only for thejoys they receive from the coming ofgood old Santa Clans, but also for the

- inculcation of that spirit which teachesthat the joy of giving is holier and purerth«n the pleasure of receiving. It is theday when not only to the children butto all mankind the world takes on abrighter hue, when joy is increased andsorrow diminished. Hawthorne wellexpressed the Christmas sentiment whenhe said, years and years ago, in thepreface of one of his "Wonder Books,"Heaven bless the children, and heavenbless everybody else, whether grownfolks or children I"

I should not be a bit surprised if Rev.J. W. Laughlin, editor of the ManasquanDemocrat and pastor of the Fair HavenMethodist church, wears a silk hat whenhe visits Fair Haven after the first ofFebruary, 1893. Mr. Laughlin casuallymentioned in his paper a week or twoago that Leon Abbett would be electedUnited States senator as Buf us Blodgett'Bsuccessor. Frank Mulgrave Taylor, theeditor of the Long Branch Record, be-longs to the other wing of the Democ-racy, and he forthwith stated that it wasno such" thing; that Leon Abbett wouldnot succeed Rufus Blodgett as senator.Then he added :

if Governor Abbett succeeds Senator Blodgettthe editor of the Democrat may call on the Record-fora pew hat. It will b» a Dice silk hat,Ual! and•hloy—one that the.editor can wear to church acouple of years, and then he can have It decoratedwith ribbons and use it for a waste basket. Sena-tor Blodgeifs term doesn't expire until 1893. Webare confidence enough in thn sagacity of tbe Dem-ocrats or Hew Jersey to believe that they will findout what kind of a man Abbett I* before that date.

Itfis a good ways ahead to predict, butevery indication now points to the sightof Rev. Mr. Laughlin gravely walkingup the aisle of tbe Fair Haven MethodiBtchurch next February a year, and carry-ing in his hand a nice Bilk hat, tall andshiny, the gift of his friend and fellowDemocrat, the editor of the Long BranchRecord.

It seems to me some means should beadopted, and that at once, to give thepeople of Seabright a free bridge. It iscertain that the bridge company willfight' the matter in the legislature if thefreeholders undertake to get a law passedauthorizing them to build a new bridge.The company claims that the legislaturewill not grant authority to build a freebridge after they have authorized theconstruction of a toll bridge ; and theymake the further claim that even if theydid this, it would be, unconstitutional.They say that the matter can be takeninto the state courts and United Statescourts and that it will be several years,anyway, before the new bridge will becommenced, and hence before the peopie of Seabright can have a free bridge.Lawsuits are expensive, and as the com-pany is ready to sell provided it can getwhat it thinks is a fair price, and as thecounty wants to buy provided it can getthe bridge for what it thinks is a fairprice, there ought to be some means ofmaking an amicable settlement of thematter. \ / i

A FAIR HAVEN WEDDING.

HIaa Lizzie Smith Weda a VirginianStore-Keeper.

Miss Lizzie Smith, daughter of George•P. Smith of Fair Haven, was marriedyesterday morning to Ewell Warren ofCheapside, Virginia. The ceremony wasperformed at eleven o'clock at the homeof the bride by Rev. Jacob Leuppie, andwas witnessed by the immediate family«nrt friends of the couple. On accountof the death of Miss Smith's aunt, Mrs.Ainnm Smith, only a short time ago, tbewedding was very quiet. The bride is afa.il and handsome brunette and wore atraveling dress of brown Bedford cordtrimmed with velvet. The groom is aprominent young business man of Cheap-side, Virginia, where he owns a largegeneral store.

At eleven o'clock the couple enteredthe parlor attended by Mr. Leuppie.The wedding march was played by MissEffie Doughty. The ceremony was theplain Methodist- ceremony without aring. A reception was held after theceremony and an elaborate wedding din-ner was served. After the reception thecouple departed on the 1:43 train fromRed Bank for New . "York, whencethey will take a train direct to Cheap-side. They will start at housekeepingon their arrival in a house owned by thegroom. Among those present, at themarriage were Mr. and Mrs. Alfred L.Bennett, Mrs.'Louisa Thompson, MrB.*Addie Smith, Mrs. Alvina Bennett, Mrs.William Curchin, Misses Althea, Kath-arine, and Nora Bennett, Miss EffieDoughty, and William Bennett of FairHaven; Mr. and Mrs. George W. Ben-nett^of Oceanic, Mrs. McCarthy of As-bury Park, and John-Maloney of NewYork. The couple received a number ofvery handsome presents, including asilver sugar bowl, a silver tea pot, a sil-ver butter dish, Bilver napkin ring, onedozen tea spoons, two butter knives, acarving set, table cover, napkins, and a

. set of fine table linen.

H o w L o n e They are Respons ib le Tort h e Conduct of Chi ldren.

. As there has been a general misunder-standing as to the rights and dutiesof trustees, teachers and pupils, an. in-quiry was made recently to SamuelLockwood, Ph.D., the superintendent ofschools of Monmouth county, for anofficial and legal, construction of tbeschool lawB upon the subject.

His answer is appended below and willbe read all over the state with interestby parents, teachers and school officers.Mr. Lockwood says:

"The general principle of tbe law is that pupilsare responsible to the teacnen, not to tbe trustees;to them tbe tracber Is responsible In that they maysnstaln or otherwise bis actions towards ibe pupil.

** From the time tbe parent dismisses a child (orschool to tbe lime of Its return borne tbe teacherhas control orer tbe pupil. In that he may hold thepupil accountable in Ibe school for wrong doingoutside o( school between tbe times mentioned.Section 45 of tbe school law sa?s: ' Every teachershall nave power to hold every pupil accountable inscbool lor any disorderly conduce on tne way to orfrom school,' etc.

'•Two points mnst be noticed. First, the teacherthns vwted with authority—If there are more thanone in the scbool—must be the head teacher, orprincipal.

"Second, as no law can Impose tbe Impossible orunreasonable, there must be a reasonable construc-tion as to the time of leaving home, and the timeof tne return home. Hence a parent may resumeauthority before the arrival of ti.e child, should thechild not arrive within a reasonable time."

AN OLD-FASHIONED SUPPER.

On Saturdaythey struck a marl rock, two feet thick,and it required an hour to cut throughit. They expect to go down 800 to 350feet to find a good supply of water. Astand-pipe will be built on a hill near tbeRidge road, about a quarter of a mile diB-tant from tbe well. As soon as waterin sufficient supply is struck, it will betested, and if found of good quality thework of laying the mains and of puttingup the stand-pipe will be begun. Ifwater is not struck, experimental wellswill be put down in other places. If asufficient supply cannot be found, or ifthe water is not of good quality, theywill get their supply from the Red Bankworks, The intention on the part of thecompany is to supply tbe summer resi-dents on Rumson Neck. Should theworks be built, engines and dynamoswill be put in and the Rumson road, andperhaps the Ridge road, will be lightedwith arc electric lights. The estimatedcost of the works is from $50,000 to$60,000.

Santfi«3ans.8Bt by the fire; in hia ownHnmffj lboEing anxious' p*"*- troubled.His droHrirttle moath -was not drawn uplike a, boy; his eyes had not twinkledfor ten minutes; and his dimples, even,woaMn'thave iookedmerry if they couldhave helped it.

Santa Clans sat there thiabxrig—think-ing. It was -i just before CBristmria.•What was-the matter -witirtim^ good,jolly old Saint ? Had his sleigh brokendown? Had any of his reindeer ranawsy? Had he lost his own, particular,pet private map—for a body must havea wonderful map to guide him all aboutamoig the chimneys of the whole world.

Bat no—it was none of tfiese things.Couldn't he find toys enough to goround? Bless' your dear little anxiousheart, dent you be afraid of that 1 Hehad thousands of bushels of toys leftafter planning all the stockings of thechildren whose names were in his books!Oh t no. Santa. Clans had toys enough.That wasn't the trouble..

"Ishouldn't have said, "after plan-ning all the stockings.'' One stockingthere was for which Santa Clans had notplanned a single thing; and that waswhy poor, dear old Santa dans was insuch a state of worry and anxiety. Thisstocking belonged,to a little boy whosegood parents had long before Christmassent m his name to Santa Clans. Butalthough there had been plenty of time,and Santa Clans had put plenty ofthought uponthe matter, he had not yet

.. been able to decide upon even one thingfar that little boy's stocking. So therehe Bat by the fire, thinVJTig and thfnTrfngand thinking.

Perhaps it seems strange to yon that. Santa should be puzzled about such athing as that, when filling stockings ishis regular profession—(a highly honora-ble one, too, and long may Santa live tograce it!)—but the little boy to whomthat stocking belonged was a verystrange and nmunn̂ i child. If anythingwas given to Mm he would either breakit to pieces very soon or do some naughtyTnJBThipf with it. "Worst of all, he wouldeven hurt his nurse or his little brothersand sisters with his beautiful toys, if hehappened to feel like doing so.

Yet kind old- Santa could not bear toleave even this-stocking empty. So hehad been puzzling hia brains to findsomething with which the little boycould not hurt people, and something hecoold not break; and although he hadbeen tTifnlrmg over all his lists of toysand presents, nothing had he found yet.

"Chirp! Chirp 1" Bounded a sharp lit-tle voice. "Chirp! chirp 1 Yon may aswell give it np. He doesn't deserve any-thing, the little scamp!"

"Oh! Is that you, Cricket?" saidSanta. "Come up here," and as he heldont his fat forefinger a tiny black cricketreached it with a sudden jump.

" Ton may as weD give it up," creakedthe cricket in a shrill tone. " You cantjfliTnV of any thing, I know."

"It begins to seem as if I couldn't,"said Santa Clans dolefully. " Bat I amso sorry for the boy ! I can't bear tothinV of that stocking and of the poorlittle rascal's disappointment on Christ-mas morning. What do yon think ofthose nice little donkeys, saddled and

* bridled, and with cunning little basketsahmg at each side ? Little—(ahem 1 yon

- know who I mean, and it is best not to:. mention names^he would be delighted

with, one of Hwm, and thsy are reallyquite strong."

" Chirp!" snapped ont the cricket,•carcely waiting for Santa' to, finish ;" quite strong, indeed! But you knowperfectly well that it doesn't mattermuch how strong a thing is, any moredan how nice it is. That boy breakseverything. You know yourself he hadten presents on his birthday, about amonth ago, and where are they now?

• *TT broken but the umbrella hig nnumn»gave him, and that baa been pat away."

" I know. I know," said Santa. " No,I cant give him the donkey—nor anyother of those fina little «"""*!« that we

_ have this year. Not a drum; nor acart; nor a wheelbarrow; nor a ship;nor a fire-engine:'nor a top; nor amusic-box; ;nqr a clock. How I didwant to five hi™ one of those fascinat-ing clocks!" and Santa Clans lookedvery wistfully at the cricket and thenngnedheavQy. " But I know I couldn't.I can't bear to see .the nice presents andinteresting toys broken to pieces. ButPve thought OT one thing, Cricket; andIdont believe he could break it. Andvet he would like it, I am sure." Santalooked a little more cheerfully at thecricket, S»T»I3 continued: "I thought anice little hammer and box of nails, and

' eorne blocks of wood for him to hammerthe nails into! That's the present forhim. Hey now, what do you think ofthat?"

" Whatdo I think ?" said the cricket- "I think, Santa Clans, tbat you haveforgotten how the little boy beat hisbrother with hia drumsticks; how hesnipped his sister's fingers with thescissors: how he threw his harmonicaat the nurse; how he—"• "Dear, dear, dear!" groaned Santa,"so he did; so he did!"

"Ann* if you keep .giving him thingswhen he nses them so wrongly," contin-ued the cricket, " how will he ever learnbetter? To be sure, his mamma andpapa and »U hig kind friends are tryingto teach him, but it is necessary thateverybody should help to train such aboyas—" . •

" I know," interrupted Santa, " Iknow. You're a wise little counselor,

• and not as hard-hearted as you seem.Anil if you think it will cure the poorlittle fellow;, I suppose we must give him.the sawdust this year."

"Yes," -said the cricket, solemnly,"sawdust it nmst be."• • • • •^ Christmas morning- came. The little

boy, whose name Santa Clans did notwish mentioned, saw all the other chil-dren pull out one treasure after anotherfrom their long, well-stuffed stockings,while in his own, which he had hnng upwith so much hope the night before;there •was nothing bat sawdust!

If I should use air the sad words in theKTigKaK language I never could tell youhow sad that little boy was as he pouredthe sawdust out of his stocking, andfound that Santa Clans had really senthim nothing else. "

Poor little chap!It was almost a Tear later, just before

Christmas, when Santa1 Clans again satby bis ure—thmVing.

Bat this time he was in no trouble; noindewri, not he! He was rounder androsier sad jollier than ever before: andhow he was gmiimg and chuckling tohimself! His eyes twinkled so, and wereto very bright, that you could almosthave lit a candle at mem. H" and thecricket had been planning all sorts ofecstatic surprises for the stocking of tbeboy to whom they had given sawdustthe year befere ; for if you can believeit, tbe little boy had been trying all theyear to be careful and gentle, and he was

" Sawdust is a grand thing," chirpedthe cricket, leaping abontindelight.

"Yes, but I am glad we do not needto use it this year," replied Santa. "Letme see trifilvit again, Don't you supposeTO could cram hi one or. two morethings? Have you put down the—"• • • • • •

This is the end of the story; or, atleast, all that could be told before Christ-mas ; for if I should write more and acertain little boy should read it, he•would know just what would be in hisstocking—and that would never do inthe world.

For tbe Cfarlstmaa Tree.Harper** Bazar.)

In one's choice of decorations.for theChristmas tree one is, of course, limitedby the amount of money that can be ex-pended for the purpose. However, byconstantly bearing in mind the fact thatbrilliance of color rather than intrinsicvalue is the desired end, a comparativelysmall sum can be made to provide a richcrop of fruit for the wonderful tree.

The tree itself must be chosen withcare-the branches symmetrically bal-anced, the apex forming a' crown, thegreenery of the boughs rich and dark,and strongly redolent with a perfume ofits native woods.

Many showy and beautiful decorationscan be entirely of home construction,common pasteboard serving as the foun-dation for the pendant hearts, anchors,crosses, crescents, stars, etc. Theseforms, and as many more as the ingen-ious fingers can devise, are first brushedon both sides -with liquid glue or muci-lage, and then immersed'in a bowl filledwith either or all of the following in-gredients : sand, sawdust, mustard-seed,and pounded rice. 1 When this roughcoat is thoroughly'dry, the ornamentscan be colored with any of the metallicor enamel paints. Tiny little flags canbe bought for a few cents a dozen, andwhen stuck into the smallest and shin-iest green, fellow, and r ed apples, orinto little gilt and silvered cornucopias,prove effective, and lend a Fourth ofJuly gayety to the whole affair. Mioa-ture Chinese lanterns, scarcely threeinches in length, are equally inexpen-sive, and if suspended from the tips ofthe branches (but for fear of fire un-lighted) they add a festive air, and helpquite efficiently to fill out empty spaces.Snapping mottoes, though of the cheap-est variety, contrast gayly with the darkgreen of the tree, and the grotesque capsthey contain provoke much merriment.

Posies are easily formed from thefancifully fringed and colored papers inwhich motto candies are wrapped, andcan be pinned in amongst the twigs,nestled underneath the branches, andwreathed around the tree trunk. Somesheets of the exquisitely tinted tissue-paper used in making paper flowers arecue into narrow strips and gummed toone another end to end, to provide theneeded length, and creped as the paperfor satcheti, etc., is creped by drawingup gradually into the band.

Yards and yards of this ribbon arethus cheaply provided, and the festoonsand rosettes into which they caneasily be twined exceed in grace andlightness those of silk that they are in-tended to imitate. In long loops andtassels they radiate in all directions fromthe central stem, and help sustain theslender strands of gilt and silver "hair,"'as it is eaJled.that drip from bough tobough in glittering showers.

These threads of gold and silver andthe sparkling baubles of colored glassentail greater expense, but with propercare they can be preserved from year toyear/

A ball or two of tinselled thread or abunch of Japanese gold) is unwound andstrung in spirals from branch to branch,the glittering threads serving as linesfrom which the Christmas gifts are sus-pended. -

Crab-apples, strings of cranberries,gilded nuts, red and white balls andstrmgB of pop-corn, canes and baskets ofyellow molasses candy or of- gayer redand white striped peppermint, are old-fashioned, it is true, but so is Christmas-tide, yet are they ever new. Little can-dles and tiny tarletan bags of candy areaffixed at every available point, thecandy acting as a weight, and serving tokeep the lights away from ornaments ofan inflammable nature.

Over all, at the very top of the tree,hovers the " Christkindchen," a bisqueor waxen angel, with floating hair, with"golden wings and arms outstretched asif showering all its blessings upon thelittle ones below.

A Monument to Columbus in 179S."The whirling of time" brings some-

times revenge, sometimes honor. Nearlyfour hundred years have passed sinceChristopher Columbus gave the pricelessboon of a new continent to civilization.Our people have read of him, talked ofhim, eulogized him in public orations,commended him in text-books, taughtthen- children to respect his shrewdness,energy, and self-sacrifice; but it hastaken centuries for *hia admiration tocrystallize into any visible, substantialform. In our great cities and along ourextended coasts no monumental shaftsrise to his memory, no memorial struct-ures attest his labors. -

Now that American spirit is risingfrom its inaction and girding itself-tocrown with great honors the fourth cen-tennial of Columbus"s glorious achieve-ment, it may interest the general publicto know that in Baltimore there has beenone monument in his memory since 1792.

This monument is in one of the mostbeautiful suburban sections of the city,where the hm« look down calmly on thewater, and rural pleasures are varied bythe evidences of a great city's progress.

The property, embracing sixteen acres,was bought in 1783 by General D'ima-ror, who, as consul, represented theFrench government in Baltimore.General D'Amaror had first come toAmerica with Count de Grasse, and hadfigured conspicuously at Yorktown. Aman of strong patriotic feeling, hospita-ble temperament, considerable wealth,and genial manners, bis house soon be-came the rendezvous of a circle of cul-tured gentlemen, and the home ofFrenchmen who chanced to visit Mary-land.

On one occasion a number of his com-patriots lingered over the "walnuts andthe wine" at his table; the host proposeda toast to the memory of the discovererof this fair land—the land so abundantin blessings, so cordial in its welcome tothe sons of France. This toast led to adiscussion of the claims of Columbus.General D'Amaror spoke warmly, andastonished his hearers by hia vehemenceand enthusiasm.

"How is it," asked one of the guests,"that I have seen no monument inthis country to commemorate hisdeeds?'

' "There is no monument," answeredGeneral D'Amaror. "With sorrow Iacknowledge it. I can do but littletoward a national demonstration; buthere, on my own place, I shall erect, andthat soon, a monument to the benefactorof the ages."

The utterance was father to the action.Bricks 'were promptly brought acrossthe Atlantic, and the work, once begun,was soon done. The monument is aboutfifty feet in height and quadrangular inform. Its base is six and a half feet indiameter; it slopes upward symmetri-cally, and at the top has a diameter ofrather more than two feet. On thewestern base of the pedestal is a marbleslab about two and a half by four feetin dimensions. On this slab is the fol-lowing inscription in Roman letters:

Sacredto the

Memory "of

CHRI8.COLUMBUSOctob. XII.

MDCC. VIIIC.The cost of the monument was eight

hundred3 pounds. It was dedicated onthe 12th of October, 1792, and is still in astate of good preservation. Within thelast few years it has been covered with acoating of cement by the trustees of tbeSamuel Ready School, a part of whoseproperty it now is.

Not Anxious for Plaques."Charley, dear," said a young wife,

•reeting her husband affectionately onlis return from business the first even-ing after their honrymoon, " I. havespent this entire day sewing buttons onyour clothe?."

" I am proud of you, Carrie," he said,sfondly. " Not many young wives wouldhave spent their first day at home sosensibly. : I had not noticed, though,"he added, " that my belongings were sodilapidated."

"But they were," she said; "scarce-ly a button left. I have sewed on nine-teen buttons this afternoon, and this isthe twentieth," she added, holding up a'̂ oat with a large brass button partlysewed on.

"Nineteen, did you say?" he asked,inspecting the sample with alarm. " Isthat a button, or—or an ornament J" hesaid, gazing at the expanse of brass sur-mounting his crumpled garment.

" It's a button," she said indignantly.'• You see, after the fiftJ button the lit-tle ones gave out, and I couldn't findanything else to use but hooka and eye3.I knew you would not like those, so Icut the buttons off the front of my lastwinter's sacque and used them all—youalwavs admired those, you u-npw, Char-ley,1' she said anxiously.

"They won't fit any buttonhole I'vegot," he remarked, gloomily.

" I noticed that, dear, so I—I enlargedeleven of the holes."

" Caroline," he said, in firm tones, " Icourted you in simple pins and knotsand strings.' They may not be pretty,but we got along together first rate, andI want it understood right here that ifyou think I am going to hang plaquesall over my person and cavort aroundbrass-mounted, as it were, then you aretied to the wrong man.
