i\y <-••• -i%<»c*y.r t^¥ ' The Author of“Darling Nellie Gray.” There u & little green mound and humble marble slab in a secluded corner of Ottcrbein cemetery,, about twelve miles north of the city, which marks the grave of the author of that famous ballad, “Darling Nellie Gray.” A visitor to the spot learns from the inscription on the stone that it is the last resting place of Benjamin Russell Hanby. The seclusion of the tomb, the neglect shown it by all save a few relatives and the general ignorance of its loca tion, form another illustration of the forgetfulness of the human race. Not withstanding the grave of the author of “Darling Nellie Gray” is forgotten and neglected, his own beautiful bal lad has sculptured out for him a monument of memory which will en dure the changes of centuries to come. The New Dance. “The latest thing in dances is ‘the dervish,’ and it beats the racquet all to pieces. “It gets its name fom a fancied re semblance to the whirl of the dervish es ot the African desert tribes,” said Prof. Fredericks, the dancing master, yesterday. “Special music is written for it, and it is as tuneful as the old racquet, popular even to-day. The dance begins as an ordinary waltz, the opening movements being rather slow and stately, for the time is increased, and the dance ends with a dozen very rapid waltz, evolutions that are said to make the dancers dizzy and impress the lookers-on that it is wicked to take part therein. The only tiling neces sary to carry out the dervish idea is the howl that should accompany the whirl, but the dancers are too well bred and the dance sufTcrs.”—Detroit Free Press. Encouraging Science. The Vermont Microscopical Asscci- ation has just announced that a prize of 8250, given by the Wells, Richard son Co., the well-known chemists, will be paid to the discoverer of a new disease germ. The wonderful discov ery by Prof. Koch of the cholera germ, as the.cause of cholera, stimu lated great research throughout the world, and it is believed that this lib crnl prize, offered by a house of such standing, will greatly assist in the detection of micro-organisms that are . the direct cause of disease and death. All who are interested in the subject and the conditions of this prize, should write to C. Smith Boynton, M. D., Secretary of the Association, Burling ton, Vt. In the course of an article on Jef ferson Davis, in the Chicago Inter- Ocean, over the signature ot “By stander,” Judge Albion W. Tourgee writes: “Yet with all this, some things must in fairness be said for the aged chief of the confederacy. He has been consistent and resolute in the maintenance of his views of gov ernment. Some years ago the By stander took the pains to collect and collate all the votes and speeches of Mr. Davis ns member of both houses of the national congress. It was a useless labor except from the fact that lie desired to fill out and complete l»is own mental picture of one of the most notable men of his time—a man who has occupied an anomalous posi tion in the world’s history. As a re sult he docs not hesitate to say that one making such a study and at the same time reviving in bis memory the sentiments of that time when the tempest brooded over our land, can not nclp a feeling of respect for the evident sincerity and ability of the man who was-afterward to stand on so strange a pinnacle. From his be lief in the constitutionality of seces sion, the righteousness of slavery, and the justice of |thc confederate cause, he has never for au instant wavered, from his earliest speech in the 'house of representatives to his latest letter. in which he confidently appeals to Ihc future for ?. vindicatoin of his views and conduct. What he then believed he still believes. One cannot question his sincerity.” The following true but rather sur prising statement is taken from the Sanitariau: “Last year Florida was panic stricken from the havoc of ycl- iow fever; bill during the same year consumption destroyed more than twice as many lives hi the little slate of New Hampshire, and not a tremor ran through the body corporate The average annual dcatli rate in this country from cholera, ye low fever, smallpox, typhoid fever, diphtheria, and scarlet lever, all combined, does not reach the enormous total of deaths from consumption.” GEORGE FF.ARN, BEIL ESTATE AGINT, OFFICE IE MITCHELL HOUSE BLOCK. fttj til Cmtrj Properii lor Sale.
