A MODERN OLIVE.
A Youth Wlin Ulil Not Flinch lloforo n
Taxnu'H llovolvor.
There was n llttlo English hey who
loft Sau Antonio baforo I h-id reached
It , but whoso name and fume remained
behind him , says Harpor'a Weekly. Ho
'
was 18 years of ago und just out'of Eton ,
where ho hud spoilt all his nockot-inonoy
In hotting on the rucos through commis
sioners. Gambling wns his ruling pas
sion tvt nn iigo when gingor-pop and
sweets appealed moro strongly to his
contemporaries. His people sent him
to Texas with100 to buy nn interest
in n runch , and furnished him with n
cotnpleto outfit of London-mndo cloth
ing. An Englishman who saw the boy's
box told mo ho had noted the different
garments packed carefully uwny , just as
his mother had placed vhom , nnd onch
marked with his namo. The Eton boy
lost the 400 at roulette the first week
after his nrrival In San Antonio , and
pawned his line clothes in the next to
"goth.xck. " Ho lost all ho ventured.
At the end of ton days ho was peddling
fruit Around the street in his bare toot.
Ho made 25 conls the first day und cur
ried it to the gambling house , 'whoro ho
hud ulrendy lost his lurgo fortune , nnd
loiu ono 01 mo uoniors no would cut tlio
cards with him for the monoy. The boy
cut first nnd the dealer won , but the
other wns enough of n gnmblor to see
that the dealer hud stooped to win his
last few pennies unfairly. The boy's
eyes filled up with tears of indignation.
"You thief ! " ho cried , "you cheated
mu ! "
The dealer took his revolver from the
drawer of- the table , and , pointing it nt
his head , said : "Do you know what wo
do to people who use that word in Texas ?
Wo kill them ! "
The boy clutched the table with both
hands and Hung himself across it , BO
thut his forehead , touched the barrel of
the revolver. "Vou thicfi" ho repented ,
und so shrilly that every ono in the
room hoard him , "I say you cheated
mo ! "
The gambler lowered the trigger
slowly and tossed the pistol b.ick into
the drawer. Then ho picked up n $10
gold piece nnd nhnvod it toward him.
"Horo. " ho said "that'll
. , help take
you home. You're voo tough for
Texas. "

HARRISON'S DOUBLE.
A Xew'VoYlc UrnccUtVlu > , Looks i.ifce the
' Preolilcnt.
Of all the mun ; who , look llko other
men PresidentHarrison's double hqads
the list , says the Now YorlcAdvortiior.
The man' IB Lewis alfoysor. Ho is a
chemist , nnd his store is at the corner
of SixtlvavonIo'nndTwontyslxth ( ' stroot.
Ho" knows ho looks like President Harrison
risen , for ha has remarked the resemblance -
blanco himself , and his friends huvo
time und again tickled him hy facetious
observations on the subject.
If. you were going to describe Mr.
Keysor the easiest way would bo to hunt
up n description of the president , for
"ono looks so much like both that you
can't toll 'tothcr from which. " The
president is broadshouldorod , stocky
nnd strong of limb. So is Mr. Keynor.
The president's neck is short und" Ills
grny whiskers touch his shirt front , just
like Mr. Koysor's. The president's oycs
twinkle merrily and seem to nsk ques
tions , nnd Mr. Koyser's eyes have the
same characteristics. And in the sub
stantial way ho sots his foot down , in
his movements nnd in his smile tlio
double is like the president.
Mr. Koysor visited n photographor's
recently , and uftor his ptiotogrnph hud
boon tuken the operator bowed very
low and said : "You're the first great
man I'vo had for a slttor since I loft the
scasido resorts. "
Ho wanted to send the photograph to
Wnshington free of cost , but the good-
nntured druggist left his nnme nnd ad
dress nnd instructions to huvo the pack
ages sent C. O. D.
Mr. Koysor is 51 years old. Ho was
born in Ohnmborshurg , P.i. His father
WIIB n Gorman. Mr. Koysor served in
the Ono Hundred nnd Twonty-sixth

PROSPECT IICLL CEMETERY.
Scrrotnry Catlin Hm n Po\v IVoriU to Siiy
on tli I'ruMint Controversy.
OMAHA , Aug. i ! * . Ofllco of the Secretary
of the Prospect Hill Cemetery Association.
To the Editor of Tuts HKIJ : In view of the
frequent statements that have appeared In
the dallv press , through the council proceed
ings and elsewhere , with ro Co roue 3 to the
Prospect Hill Cemetery assoclatlsn acquir
ing from the estate ot the Into Mr. Byron
Hood that portion of land tn said cemetery
lying between the present occupied portion
thereof and Parker street , the same being
127 foot north nnd south and extending from
the cast line of the cemetery to Thirty-third
street on the west. I doslra to make a few
brief statements of facts in connection there
with , In order tluitlotowuors In Prospect Hill
cemetery and thn public may gain some in
sight into the true situation nnd the motives
that have given Hsu to the present agitation.
111 1805 Byron Hood platted and laid out
into blricKs and lots for cemetery purposes
what is now the north half of Prospect Hill
cemetery nnd dedicated the streets nnd
alloys therein to tha public uta. After
wards a tract of land lying immedi
ately south of the original plat , and
nearly the same size , was ov Byron
Hoed laid out Into a so-called Fir.it addition
to Prospect Hill cemetery , und extended
from tbo south line of the original cemetery
to Parker street , and Includes the strip of
1-T fust wide now In question. This entire
First addition was nt tint lima surveyed and
laid off Into lots and bloctcs of unllorm size
with the original cemetery by Mr. George
Smith , who is now living in Omaha , and
lots wcro sold on thU strip of l i" feet now
In question and interments made thereon ;
but. subsequently the lots in this strip of
land wcro withdrawn from the market until
the lots in the other portions of the como-
tcry should bo sold nnd the same should bo
required for burial purposes , and It has
always been carried upou the books of Byron
Hood as cmnetcry property , nud so stands to
day , nnd during his lifo it was
rocoguizd by him in court proceedings
as a part of Prospect Hill cenutery.
It has been repoatcdly assorted by tlio
Forest Lawn Cemetery association "that
Byron ll-jcd desired nud proposed that the
area , extent and limit of Prospect Hill ceme
tery should he restricted to the tract con-
voyoJ by him to that association , nnd that its
use for cemetery purposes should linally
entirely ccaso and the ground bo used by the
city for a public park. "
I desire to state that these assertions are
absolutely and utterly false , of which I have
loiitivo proof , over tbu signature of Bvron
Hood.
At the tlmo when the change of the on-
.r.inco was made fr9n * the east to tno south
side of the cemetery it was made by the
t'rospoot Hill Comoterv association with the
full consent nnd approval of Byron Hoed ,
'ounded upou the fact that , thU strip of land
was a portion of Prospect Hill cemetery.
At the time of Mr. ll-jod's death negotia
tions were pending for again placing this
strip of ground on the inarKot for burial pur-
> osos , the consummation of which was noc-
issurily delayed In the settling up of his es
tate.
tate.A few weeks prior to Mr. Rood's death in
company with Mr. Samuel Burns I called
upon Mr. Hood ut his reaidanco for the pur-
jose of talking ever comu'.ory matters , nt
vhlch tlmo woreculvod much Interesting und
valuable information with reference to Pros-
loct Hill cotnotery.
In thai interview , which lasted several
lours , Mr. Heed assured us that at the time
ho quit-claimed that portion of Prospect Hill
cemetery named In the dead to the Forest
. .awn cemetery association , that l < o had no
doa or intention of its abandonment. That
n deeding to that association for the nominal
consideration of SI between $5UOO and $10,000
w'orth of vacant lots in Prospect llill como-
, ory , most of which were sold by the Forest
luwn association bofoiM tboy abandoned It ,
hat ho uid so for tno sole purpose
of relieving hlm elf of further caru
and responsibility of the cemetery and
believing that ho.was placing It in tlio hands
of an association that was legally und other-
vise In a position to care for and maintain
t as he hud done , und that they would do so.
Ho expressed In the strongest terms his
disapproval of the willful neglect and dosu-
cratlon whicti the Forest Lawn association
mil permitted , and his full approval of the
action of the lot owners In the organization
of an association for Its future maintenance.
Ho said that the Forest Lawn association
should not hesitate 10 redcou the cemetery to
the Prospect Hill Cemetery association upon
ho same terms tboy had received it from
ilm , and that if so desired tie would choor-
'ully unite In the execution of such a dead.
He said that the clause In his dead to the
forest Lawn association of reversion to
, ho city of Omaha lor park purposes , should
t ever cease to ho used ns n cernotory , was
not intended nud could not bo construed us
joing his wish that It should over ba
abandoned us a cemetery , but was simply u
provision for n possiolo contingency which
le did nut uoliovo would ever exht , but
which there might DO a possiuinty in tbo
rur distant futuro.
Those statements are fully verified by tlio
'actthat within six weeks thereafter , at his
own request , ho was laid away nt ron in
uoautlrul Prospect Hill cemetery , nnd today
i massive and costly monument marks the
ilaco tvticro ho sloops.
It'has boon ascertained beyond n reason
able doubt that tbo petition recently pre
sented to tlio city council protesting airainst
ho use of this land for cemetery purposus
vas instigated oy members of the Forest
uwn ( Jemotory association , uuu tint the
bald petition was circulated nnd signatures
irocurod thereto by pjrsous employed by
hem for that purpose.
It Is not , difficult to dollno tbo motives that
vould naturally prompt that association to
nanlfust u deep solicitude in the snnlUrv
condition of that portion of the city , bouausu
every intelligent person knows that wore it
lo-islblo to enlarge the boundaries of Pros-
ic > ct Hill cemetery , which It U not and whlun
lioro Is no doslro or Intention of uolng , that
t would DO a death blow to that luulllulloa
aiid their money making scheme.
No ono knows hotter than they that there
s not that person living who would over
rom choice no past Prospect Hill uamctory
and go bovon long woamomo miles over un-
mvcd roads , through the mud and slush of
nnng , the heat unddustof summer , the raw ,
chilly winds of autumn , or the bitter storms
and cold of winter , to lay away tholr dona ,
nly to return over the same long , woarl-
oii'io road , sadder and mere sorrowful be-
aiiBo ol tha d Is lance which separate ! ) them
rom now the dearest spot un earth , und du-
irives them ot the greatest comfort und
irlvllugo this world can afford of frequently
rlsitiug und tenderly caring for the luat roil-
ng place of their loved ones. And yet for
rears this community has bacu forced by ttm
Forest Lawn association to submit to this
Infamous nnd cruel ouiracro without tha
slightest necessity therofor. when thorn
nniplo space in bountiful Prospect Hill to
moot the requirement * of thl * city for ninny
year * to como.
The city ordlnnnco forbidding the acquir
ing of property within the aitv limits for
cemetery nurpsios wits Intended solely to
prevent the jstabllshinout of now cemeteries
within sush limits find therefore is not iin-
Pllcublo to this cnso. Taora can bo no good
nnd valid reason given whr this narrow
strip of land , which is comparatively worthless -
loss for any other purpose , should not now
no useil for the accommodation ofouroItU
zins who desire lots tlioroln nnd bo made n
source of revenue for the creation of n por.
manont fund for the future maintenance nnd
ornamentation of these nlroaclv beautiful
grounds. It does not adjoin anv privnto
properly , except Hint owned by the Hood os-
into on the east. Other abutments are on
rurkor street upon the soath , Thlrly-thlnl
stroni upon the west nmt the prosunt ocou-
J tiled portion of the cemetery on the north ,
nnd nro thorcforo absolutely trco from all ob
jections upon sanitary grounds.
1 doubt If there Is n man living todav who
owned n foot of properly within n mile of
I'rospaot Hill before it was a comotory.
Every property owuor within n mile of the
cumotor.v bought his property with the full
knowledge of Its existence and that In nil
human probability It would alwars rnmaln u-
comotor.v , which It surely will. If there was
anything objectionable about the location
they had the prlvilodgo of buying clsowhoro.
but for reasons of tholr own they solootod
ground In this Immediate vicinity In profor-
oiico to all other locations , with the full
Knowledge of tholr surroundings.
The city council may Issue Its command *
to the city attorney In dcllanco of his legal
opinion nnil of law , but them Is something In
tldscoinmuiilty higher and far tuoro power
ful than a city council and that Is publla
opinion , and publio opinion in Omahn today
is ovorwholmlnglv In favor ot the protection
of the dead as well as the living.
Prospect Hill oomotory is the most beauti
ful spot m Omahn , und very dear to the
hearts of our pJopio. Around It nro clustered
sacred momorlns ot early days nnd of these
whoso names are conspicuously and Insep
arably Identified with the growth and pros
perity of our city. Our eldest , wealthiest
nnd most highly ostooniod citizens are among
tlio lot owners thuroln , any attumpt to ov"or-
throwordeslroy It or to dlvost uny portion
of It from tno sacred use or purpose for
which ii has bjon dedicated and hold , wolud
bo a blot upon civilization and n groas insult
to the best element of this community. But
that tlmo will never couu . Projpo'ot Hill
cemetery will exist generations after these
who are now living shall have pasted awav.
A permanent fund has already boon estab
lished for its future c.ira and milntnnnnna
una sovor.il of our prominent citizens hnvl\
mails provisions In tliclr wills , bsqtiuathlnp *
liberal sums to this fund , nnd otliorc will
surely follow in their tniin. If nny parsons
have auv doubts or foara in regard to Hbo
future of Prospoot llill comotory. they can
tllsmUs tUom forovcr with the utmost confi
dence.
It Is the Intention of the association to proceed -
coed with the sala of lots as soon ns the
nocossarv dlasrams and plats can bo nro-
parou. These grounds are hiRh and beauti
fully situated , overlooking the city ana sur-
rouncliae country for iniloj in every direction ,
forming ono of the most nlctur'osquo and
otiarmlng views nbout O.nahu , and
the lots thoroln will bo union : ? the

Two tall , graceful girls strolled slowly
along the bench earnestly convorsinir. , .
Thov were conspicuous in the throug- ,
nnd many an admiring glance was
turned toward thorn as they sauntered
to nnd fro. A cloudless sky was rolloutod
in calm waters below , while scarcely a
breath of air was stirring.
The girl In the pure white blazer was
doing most of the talking , according to
tlio Detroit Free Press.
' It is all very well , " she was saying ,
' to insist that you would die for the
man you love , but tlio sucrifico is quite
unothor thing. "
The girl with the blue yachting cap
shrugged her shoulders.
"You speak , " she observed , "llko ono
who had made the sacrifice. "
"I have the right so to speak. "
Alfocting recollections poured tumultuously -
multuously ever the soul of the girl in
the white bln/.or. llor lips trembled
and the superb eyes hunt upon the wand
of the beach glistened with the dow of

The girl in the blue cap smiled
haughtily.
"Iimosd , " she sarcastically retorted ,
"how very interesting' ' . And how does
it feel to actually die for the man you
lovoV"
Reproachfully the girl in the white
hla/.or directed her gaxo upon the girJ
with the blue yachting cap.
"You shall not maUo liglit of It. "

"Forgive mo.
For a time they walked in nllonco.
Both were deeply affected , the ono lillod
with remembrances of tlio past , the ether ,
her resentment gone , with womanly
sympathy.
"Toll mo about it it , Ethel. "
The girl in the blue yachting cap was
tenderly persuasive.
"It WUH worse than dying for him ,
Clara. "
Wltn n quicic movement tno tears
were dashed from the superb eyes , and
the girl with tnu white blu/.or faced her
companion.
"It WUH last Easter , Clara. You remember - '

They had paused In their walk , and
were looking at ouch other fixedly.
"Ethel ! "
"Yes , Cluru , I did it. I wont to church
