ANOTHER MAN John Griscom Proposes to Fast _ Fortyenine Days or - Perish. % The Opening Overture a Moderate Lunch at Noon Yes- ~ terday. Medical Students Have Agreei to Watch the Faster. ‘The latest candidate for fame and shekels, the imitator of Dr. ‘Tanner, who bas announced his intention to fast for forty-five days or perish in the attempt, begun nis undertaking at noon yes- terday. Hisname is JobnGriscom, be is SY years of ase, is 5 feet 10% Inches in hight, and weighed when he bezun his fast 19734 pounds. Mr. Cris- com buils from New York, being tho son of a physician of that city, but bas resided for the past two years un the farm of his father-in-law near Fayette,O. He is u married man, and has children. By way of giving the fast and the faster a rood send-off, the managers thereof invited the physicluns who ure tu took after the affair to watcb Mr. Griscom eat bis last meal at the Sher- man House. Shortly before uoon Dr. W. K. Harrison, Prof. Henry Olin, Dr. C. G. Fuller, Dr. Milton Jay, E. N. Buikie, J. W. Strong, Dr. Tan- ner, and half u dozen representutives of the press sut down to lunch in the ladies’ ordinary. The man who is to live upon air and water for so long failed to improve Bis last opportunity to Imy in a solid oc’, of victuals, and contented biinselt with & small slice of roast veal, ste..ed corn, asDaragus. and potatoes, and a farge picce of bread. Precisely at 1? o’clock he tnid down his kuire and fork and said he was ready :o begin bis arduous task, Before the party broke up Mr, Griscum read B&puver of considerable length, in which he set forth his views on tue’ psychological aad pbysiological effects which be beheved could ‘be uttaincd by protracted abvsti- mence frum fvod. So {ir us could be un- derstood fiom this paper and from -re- marks made by Mr. Griseom in reply to inqui- ries made by embers of the press, the fasting mag believes much as the ascetics of old did, ULTIMATE SPIRITUAL. PERFECLIUN ean be obtained by starvation and mortitication of the ticsh, He claimed that upto the time be was 20 he was unable to concentrate his mind on any Subject or to learn anythmg, und that he was littie better thun a foul. At that age be fasted furty-cight hours, having acquired in some Way a belief that great results would en- sue. According to bis declaration, made with all solemnity sesterduy, at the end of forty- eight hours bis old craving tor victuals left him, gna he received a new and more renned appe- tte. He sald that a great change ovcurred at this tine, which ne felt passing through his body. Some time afterwards be reduced himself to his old level by a systematic course of overeating deliberately undertaken. He announced some curivus views on the ultimate perfectibility to which the human race wight attain if they ob- served certain conditions, and declared that be had by this means reached a certain degree of bigher development. Dr. Harrison, of Bennett Medical College, said on behalf o1 the medical men who had taken a0 interest in this case that they were going to wasch the fast in the interest simply of scieuce. They knew nothing of Mr. Griscuz’s ideas on the intellectual. and spiritual perfecuon to reached, but he had _ consented wo them maintaining u wutch that he actually did fast. Reputable physicians had volunteered to make examinations of the secretions, bivod, etc. from time tu time, and be would take care that two watchers, in whom be had absolute contidence, should be constantly on baud. The party then adjourned to the rooms over the Olympic ‘Theatre entrance, where the exhi- bition is to be beld. Three good-sized apart- ments, comfortubly furnished with chairs, lounges, carpets, and a bed, will be devoted to the show. The public, or at least such as re- ceive invitation will be allowed to get witbiu afew feet of the faster, but a rail and cord ur- rangement will prevent the passage of food to him. It was announced that the watchers had examined the premises for reserve supplics of food, and hud found none. 2 THE PHYSICIANS WEIGHED, measured, and took other libertics with tho fester, and announced the following figures as iciad : ZI ‘Weight (when stripped), 19734 pounds." © Weight (in clothes), 202.

All the schools of medicine appeur to have taken an interest in this attempt to defy hunger, and the affair ugne to prove interesting from a scientitic point of view if the arrangements mude are toaintained and Mr. Griscom holds out. Admis- Bion at this stage of the proceedings is by ticket pis but probably the public will get a chance look at the fasting man before many days ave passed. DURING THE AFTERNOON gnd evening Mr. Griscom remained quict in his reception-rvoms, and about hulf-past 9 o'clock indulged in a short BBP. A book to contain the rd of the fast bas been prepared, and in that ir.

A Visit to Cheops and Its Companion Structures, Speclat, Correspondence of The Chicago Tribune, Cano, Egypt, April 10.—Replete with in- terest, indeed, is the genuinely Oriental city, with its quaint bazars, indescribable street- scenes, and wonderrul medley of human ‘life: but we could not long forvear a visit to those mighty monuments of the past,—the Pyramids. And so, bright and early on the last day of Mareh, while the air was still cool and refreshing, we started outon the excursion. The distance is about eight miles, and travelers generally take carriages, or pro- vide themselves with donk As soon as You approach the donkey-boys, waiting near the Esbekeeyah Park, they rush towards you pellmell, each trying 16 strike a bargain first.

Have my donk ?”” We crossed the Nile on a new and elezant bridge, just west of tho city, known as the Kasr-el-Nil, constructed by the Khedive for the use of the Prince of Wales ‘and party in 1868. Just above the bridge is the beautiful Island of Rhoda, once covered with gor- geous palaces and temples, and now adorned With fine residences and blooming: gardens. ‘Here grow in luxuriance the fig, orange, lemon, lofty palm, acacia, and wide-spread- ing tamarisk. On this island, tradition says, the infant Moses was discovered by Pha- Taoh’s daughter as she came down to the Tiver’s brink to bathe, attended by her maidens, Every little while we would meet along ain of camels or donkeys heavily laden With new-mown clover to be sold in the city. AtGizeh we turned to the right, and soon entered a long, straight avenue of arching acacias,—the new road built in honor of the ce of Wales. The crops along the way Were luxuriant, although, in our own coull- tty, at the same time of year, Nature is still dormant. The clover was knee-high, the Wheat and barley already..golden. In ‘some lds were tethered large numbers of fine Arabian horses,—the tents of their keepers Ditched near by. ( Distances are very deceiving in this Te- markable climate.

The vastness of the objects before us contributed. to this effect; and then, in this land of eter- nal sunshine, the atmosphere is so transpa- rent and crystalline that the power of vision is greatly hightenea, so that, when we stood upon the Pyramid and gazed around us, it seemed as though the whole earth was em- braced in one view, Our attention was first attractea by the Sphinx,—that strange combination of man and beast,—human in its weariness, sorrow, and benignty,—divine in its immensity. ‘There it lies in an attitude of eternal repose, its sleepless eyes ever looking right on to- Wards the rising sun, a guardian ius i the midst of mizhty sepulchres. ee At last we stood at tne base of the Pyra- mids,—those mountains of stone, petritied inysteries of an age long dead and gone. very simple in form,—only a regalar pyran idal mass ot granit blocks,—and yet so many thousands have come from afar to visit them, So many countless multitudes have read and, thoucht of them, their very immen: tiquity, and mystery awaken the dee terest, ‘There they have stood, loc in awrul silence and loneliness between the jifeless, hadowless desert, and the hot, lank sky,—witnesses to the sublime drama of a world’s history.

Victoria detests London and Edinburg,— London because the climate is so trying and the outlook so disinal, and Edinburg because Prince Albert took the cold in that city that the Queen believes brought about his death. He was delivering an address on the unyeil- ing of a statue, and the dominie was so in- ordinately long in praying that the Prince, who stood in a drizzling rain without his hat, found himself “all of a chill”? when the affair was finished. The Queen is thoroughly womanly in the tenacity and variety of her prejudices. She has never enjoyed a London pageant since the multitude hooted her husband, about the time of the Crimean war. The notion got out that he was making himself meddlesome, and he was lampooned and deeried unmercifully. Lord Palmerston had something to do with the pupular notion. Le never forgave the Prince for thesharp letter sent him while he was Foreign Minister requiring him to sub- mit to the Queen all dispatches that feft the Foreign Office and threaten- ing him with dismis: if he neglected thiscommand. He did neglect it, and Lord Russell, the Prime Minister, was forced to drop him. He had his revenge, but at the expense of the Liberal party, for the Queen was compelled to make the jaunty and ind endent lrishman Prime Minister, and she as detested the name of Liberal ever since. She had a good deal to endure from. this plucky statesman. In 1864, when her kins- men, the Prussians, were thrashing the Danes, news was received in the Commons date one night that a German man-of-war had been captured by the Danes. There was a frantic vutburst of enthusiasm, the Mouse breaking into wild cheers. ‘Che Queen sent for Paimerston and remonstrated, declaring that if she were to be thus insulfed'she would go to Prussia and remain until the conclusion of the war. Instead of trying to placate the royal wrath, as a courtier would have done, Palmerston responded frankly: “If your Majesty should put such 2 project into exe- curion the house of Hanover would never another day in this island, such is the ity ot your subjects’ feeling.” The Queen never alluded to the subject again, but she barely tolerated the Lioeral Minister, and never strove to conceal hyr aversion for his party. Apropos the Queen’s tyranny in dress,—no woman with low neck or short slveves is ever admitted a second time to her presence,—the joke of London is her parsimony. This trait was partly inherited, tor the head of the Jueky house of Hanover, the stout Duke of Celle, had six big sons, but, as there was not fortune enough to divide between thebrawny young princes, luts were drawn for the in- heritunce. The lot fell upon a wild young spend- thrift, who bad fought in the East, and bad scandalized tho quiet burghers of his futher's Principulity by bringing home from Venic fairy in tho shape of an opera-dancer. They were a godless set in those brave old days. Mar- riuge was denied the other stout young, Dukes, so they seattered themselves wherever bouty or beauty was to be hud fur hard Oybting und rid- ing. Tho Duke to whom the lot fell mended his ‘3, put uway tho. opera-sylph—turned ber over, in short, to one of the elder brothers. who budn't enough adventure to seek any other than the dulcineas of the Fatherland. Duke Enest, for that was Queen Victorm’s remote an- cestor’s name, had, among a score of young Dukes and Duchesses, that particular oné that became united with the house of Stuart, and eventuully, on the death of Queen Anne, made the Hanover branch the direct heirs in the per- son of that stingy, ignorant, disreputable mud- ple of a Prince, King George First, the Elector. fie bated the Eagtish heartily, and stole every- thing be could Iny his ftoyal ands on to send over to hisbeloved Hanover. The uzliest binc- lander in all Germany ne chose for nis mistress, and made this barridan Duchess. He never be- lievea that the English would tolerate bin, and as Engtand was a golcouda compared with his frugal court he poured everything in tho shupe of treasurelinto the pocketsof his German favor- ats, as William of Orange hau yeurs before luden his Dutch compatriots down with theswag of the Britons who bud invited him over to rule them. Frugality to the borders cf parsimony has run in a broad stream through the line of tho Queen’s ancestry. She Inherits and transmits it in full to her sccond son, the Duke of Edinburg, who is despised x a ‘skinfiint, while the Prince of Wales is adored as a prodigul. Wuntover of thrift the Queen didn’t inherit was curefully cultivated in her by her husband, Prince Albert. He bud lived all bfs life on tho beguuriy, pittance of a German Priace, and, when he became the husband of the Queen, be thought the splendors of Arabia were nis, on an allowance of $150,000. He thriftily set to work to muke bis pearls bloom and beur seed. He in- vented the great exhibition of 1852, and bought up all the lund in Kensington, which be fore- saw would be Indispensable to the city. His in- yestments ail turned bonunzas, and when he died his riches were 50 enurmous that the will was never intrusted to Doctors’ Cominons, where by law all testaments must be registered. Queen Victoria is the richest woman in Europe as well ns the best paid monarch. ‘But she is inveterately stingy. She never would pay a penny of the Prince of Wales’ debts,—many of thom incurred in dispensing tho hospitalities which the Queen shirks, London is never tired Joking about the presents made by the Sovereign, itisa tradition of the Eust Jadia Company that the monarch Is cx-ollicio a member of its governing board, and receives as emolument 100 India shawis a yexr. The Queen bas for years utilized these costly fabrics for presents at royal weddings. Whenever tho list of presentsat & royal or aristocratic wedding {3 printed, this item is always sure to come in: “From her Mujesty the Queen, an India shawl.” That the shawls don't come smiss may be judged when it ig borae in mind that the donor has, on an average, a dozen or more marrinyes a year in herown family, to say nothing of the scores of the nobility her cousins,” who come ia fora token. = = ‘Some of the old cosstp about Victorin’s fond- ness for Disraeli is revived by the solicitude she displayed during his illness.

ROMANCE OF A TOOTH. Cheyenne Sun. The particulars of a remarkable dental operation recently performed by a well- known and skillful dentist of Denver were imparted the other day to our reporter. Some months since oue of the loveliest and most accomplished daughters of a well-known citizen ot Cheyenne was ‘thrown from her horse and sustained, among other annoying injuries, a fracture of one of her front teeth. The delicate pearl which flashed through “lips within whose rosy labyrinth when she smiled the soul was lost” was hopelesly crushed, and marred the beauty of the lady considerably. The only remedy for its in- jury was to have the root of the broken tooth extracted and a false tooth made to fill the horrid breach, In her distress she went to Denver, where she had many friends, and sought theadvice of a prominent dentist re ferred to. Between her'sobs she stated that she had read somewhere, or been told by | somebody, that dentistry ‘had advanced to such a science that it was possible to trans- plant 2 tooth from the mouth of another person which would take root and blgom as it had in its original gum. Could he secure for her a match tor the broken tooth? If he could he might name his price. Beauty in distress appeals to the gallant dentist never in vain, sv he informed the griefstrieken inaiden that operations had been sac cessfully performed, but in the present ease the diniculty would be to discover a tooth o£ such purity, delicacy, and beauty as to be worthy to munch caramels and bons-bons in company with those which now mourned. the loss of their crushed companion. How- ever, he would see what he could do. A month or two passed, during which the doctor was unremitting in his search for a tooth of the proper dimensions, complexion, and brilliancy, Big teeth, yellow teeth, snag. teeth, and teeth of every description and con dition came in bis way, but never a tooth saat would answer for the mouth of the pretty 153 —. _ At last the tooth was found.

Brooklyn Eagle, “Could I see the editor ?” she asked, look- ing around for him and wondering what was going on under the table. “Eh! yes, ’m him,” responde the editor, evolving himself and slipping a cork into his vest-pocket. “What can [ do for you 2” “Dma student at Packer Institute,” re- sponded the blushing damsel, “and 1 have written a little article on ‘Our Schovl Days’? which I would like to have published in the Brooklyn Eagle, it you think it good enough.” “Certainly,” replied the editor, gazing in unconscious admiration upon the beautiful face before him. “‘ Does it commence: ‘Our school-days! how the words linger in sweet cadences on the strings of pemory Y Is that the way it runs?” “Why, yes,” responded the beaming girl. “Then it goes ou: ‘Flow wa look forward from time to time when we shall look back to them! How did you know 2” “Never mind,” sitid the editor, with the engaging ‘smile which has endeared him to the citizens of Brooklyn. “After that comes: *Sosunshiny, so gilded with the pleasures that make youth happy, they have flown into the immutable past, and come to us in after life only as echoes in the caves of sweet rec- olfection.’ Isn’t that it?” _ . It certainly is,” answered the astonished girl, radiant with delight. “How could you know what L had written 2” ea “Then it changes from the pianissimo and becomes nore tender: ‘The shadows gather around our path. The roses of friendship are withering; but may we not bupe that they will Dbivom aguin us we remember the atfection that bound us bere and mide” ”— i “1s itz ‘Hope on, hope ever?” asked the ed- tor. “That comes in further on. You had it near- ly right. itis: “The dun shadows cluse nround us, ‘The flowers of friendship ure sleeping, but not withered, wid wil bloom aguin in the wttec- tionate remembrance of the chains that bound us so lightly.” “Strange that I should have mado that mis- take,” said the editor musingly. “1 never missed ou one before. From there it coes: *Sehoolmates, let us live so that ali our days shull be as radiant asihose we have known h and may we pluck happiness from every bush, forgeLiing uever that the thorns are below roses, and pitying those whose hunds are bruised in the march through lite. “That's it!” exclaimed the delighted girl. “and then comes: * Hope on, hope ever.” “ Sure’s you're born!” cried the cditor, blush- ing with pleasure, and once more on the right track. ‘Then itrans: *And as for you, teac- ers dear!” r “Yea, yes, you are right,” giggled the girl. “1 can’tsee how you found me out. Would you like to print it?’ and her face assumed’ an anxious shade, “Certainly,” responded the editor. “Till say it's by the most promising young lady of Brook- lyn, the daughter of ua esteemed citizen, and a Tad} who bas already taken bib soclat rank.” “That finishes tho school commencements at one swoop,” sighed the editor gloomily, as the fair vision’ flouted out. Can't see how f made that blunder about tho shadows, and roses. and friendship. Either I'm getting old, or’somne of these girls have struck out sumething original. Here, Swipes, tell the foreman to put this slush in the next tax-sale supplement,” and the editor felt in his hair for the cork, and wondered what had happened to his memory. A SIMPLE COSTUME. New York Evening Post. A numberof gentlemen ata party the other evening were wondering why all young [a- dies did not dress in the plain, simple style of a young belle present, whose toilet they greatly admired. ‘The dress was certainly yery beautiful, as was the young lady— which had a great deal to do with the effect of the dress, which deserves description. The underskirt of plain white Surah, covered with tiny ruffles of the same goods. The overdress was of nun’s veiling of an ex- quisitly fine texture, adorned with frills and cascades of cream white lace, and caught up with clusters of whitesnewdrops coveredwith crystals. Upon her head of golden hair was a delicate wreath of snowdrops glittering with white Jots.. She wore not a jewel, out carried ia in her hand a large antique fun of white feath- ers spangled with crystals. After the party wus over, the wearer of the dress, who bad beard of and enjoyed the compliment, Inughtngly in- formed one of ber adwirers~u dotinz uncle— that this “simpie ”’ dress, at xn_ exceeding mod. ernte computation, not including “Mudames Dill for making, bad cost $160, all the uncle did was quietly to hand the young lady of the “simple” dress bis uew spring hat, with a bow of nesnowiedgment, and a wave ot the hand which expressed more than words could bave done, his unqualitied admission of the utter in- capacity of the masculine mind to comprebeod the magnitude, or to guess the price of a woman's dreas, even though that dress simulate “simplicity ” to perfection. FEMININE NOTES. When ayoung man wants to protect a young lady he naturally puts his armor round her, In Portugal a widow cannot marry if she be over 50 years of age. Who ever heard of a widow as old as that? A young man was found hanging to a gate in Podunk, J., Sunday night. He was cut down by an irate father’s boot. “ Yfother.” remarked a Duluth girl, “I think musi be to propose to me.” Why sae daughter} quer thé old lady, laying down ber spectacles, while her tace beamed like “Well, he the moon in its fourteenth night. rate ft living asked me this evening if I wasn't tires with such a menugerie as you and dad. “Esthetic Damsel"—The most charming dec- oration for a plate Is a good piece of beetstenk with well-cooked potatoes and just u sufficiency of gravy, Ivll lay over trailing vines or a sun- flower any da Affectionate wife—* August, sweetest, don’t You wish your ’ity wifey bud the finest head of hair in tne cit Husband—" Ob, yes, of course!” A.

Annie Bernice, an only daughter and once the petted child of a wealthy gentleman of Indiana, some years since took the down- ward road to ruin. She had been well ed- neated and carefully nurtured,but the tempter came, and she fell. She was beautiful and accomplished. Like many such, she fled from the sight of her old friends and play- mates, and sought to hide her shame in a large city. She went to Louisville, passed through the usual! gradations from flaunting vice to abject misery, until her home was among the lowest and vilest. The other night she was beaten to death bya ruffian. ‘v areporter one man who saw something of the crime said : The night was dark; and although I looked hard, I could only see three datk forms, One of the men seemed to cateh the girl about the waist and then throw her down, mufiling her face as she fell. Then I saw the men beat her; heard her low, muted groans and her gasping cries for mercy, but the beating continued. Then the woman ceased to groan, and the blows sounded as they fell so thick on her body like blows on a sand-bagz, ‘Then yue of the men dragged the woman to the frout of the alley, and I saw no more of them, and went shivering back to bed. J knew a terrible crime bad been cow- mitted.” Z ‘The reporter, continuing his search for in- formation, found the iouse where. this wretched girl lives, and he thus describes it: “Entering @ narrow little hall leading off of Market street, the floor of whic cove ered with filth that gives forth @ sickening stench, and going up a dirty, foul-smelling s use, Wie reporter Knocked at-a door at the head of the stairc A withered, toothless old. hag, black enough and weird- tooking enough to suggest ideas of an infer- nal region, opened the door, and invited him tocome in. ‘The room was less than four- teen teet square, and in it ten people lived. x children, hungry-looking and clothed in rags, Were playing on the floor, and one was munching a bone Ww! ch he had found in the gutter. Some dead animal in the room, or near it, gave forth an unbearable stench. “After some hesitation the old woman agreed to take the reporter through the house, and, leading the way through a dark, damp, narrow little hallw knocked at a dvor of a room at the end of it. Lt was oven- ed by a white girl, thin and white-taced, with great blue circles under her eyes. fn the room were six colored men and their women, and the whole crowd lived together in this room day and nignt. One window afforded all the ventilation, the air being so thick and close as to. be stifling. Several other rooms on the same floor were visited and the saine thing seen. In all were crowds of men and women—in many of them white women, ‘Shere were dirt and poverty and sickness every Where. * Passing by one door the reporter opened to enter, but the old hag dragged him . whispering ina frightened way that the man within had the small-pox, and the rest of the people who were with him were also sup- posed to have it, In the brief glance that s had a man was seen lying on the bed, his face swollen and broken out with erup- tions. Going up two flights of stairs, the third story of the house was reached... All here was dirtier and more horrible than below. Ltseemed, comming from the bright, warm sunshine without to this fetid, rotaing hole, as though it were the creation of a per- verted imagination. There were rooms small and dirty, reeking with filth of all imagina- ble description; children with their white, wan faces, looking as though they had never seen the sunlight; crowds of both sexes and evlors, drinking and singing wild, drank- en songs; sick and haggard faces were there fou. and forms that had once seen fairer homes. “In another room a woman was found ly- ing sick, and all the people in the neighbor- ing rooms rushed to the door as the reporter approached, warning him that the woman had the smail-pox. Lhe utter wretchedness and horrible ghastly surroundings of these people, their raomsso small and so filthy, with no furniture and no food, and nothing to be seen but misery and vice, cannot be under- stood by the z0od people who sit in their comfurtable homes and hear nothing of the y some of our people live. This house contains about forty rooms, in which live sixty-three families, numbering about 500 souls, and among them all Barnie Cassidy was well known. The room of the murdered gitl was shown by Salhe Yates. If was a dark, . dingy, foul- smelling little hole. A few dirty quilts thrown on the fluor served her for a bed, and no other article of furniture was in the room. Into this hole she,was,thrown Tuesday night by the men who committed the murder, and from it they removed her to the City Hospi- tal. And it was among negroes and the lo est elass of whites that Annie Bernice, once the petted child of a wealthy gentleman, lived, and by some among them, in a fifth alley, was at length stamped to death, after being ejected from the kitchen of a colored prostitute,? Coflin Stories, The Chinaman bus a sensitive soul and must be handled gingerly. One of them went tow cotlin shop and ordered four coffins for bis fam- fly who bad died of an epidemic. The. cottin~ muker had just tive left. and olf-red the lot ata bargain, First thing be knew bis enraged cus- tomer bad bit bim between the eyes. le thought the coffin man wanted bim todie too. ‘The collin man upologized and begged his cus, tomer nut to mention it, as he would “lose fuce” if it were known what he had been struck fur. Buta crowd had already guthered and the story getting abroad, the cofin-maker came near being mobbed for implied insult to bis cus- tomer. In Lima, Peru, “a patriot” bad “set bis coun- try free” by storming the President’s bouse with amoband killing the * putriot,” who bud “set his country free’"in the sume fashion a day or two before. The plaza was covered with dead bodies. “Let us give them Christian burial said Herr Von Gretk,a German cotlinmaket and, the Government upproving, it guve him ao order for 50v coftins, which took bim uight and day to finish. The mob carried out bis cottins as fast as they were made, and buried the bodies. The undertaker bad bis doubts as to bow it would nll end, but be said nothing, and let them take his wares away. Finally, when he ventured to ask who was to pay for them, he wisbed be hadn't. The mob begun to ‘murmur. He was un enemy to the country—wanting pay for one act of humanity; and on their binting that they would sec how well he fitted into onv of bis own collins he gracefully withdrew from the con- troversy and allowed bis warehouse to be de~ spoiled. The mob retired laughing and tho collin-man shut up shop. -After many months of weary waiting and importunity, of jeers and roars whenever he meationed his vill of 250,000 for coffins,to the Goverumentor Legislature, biz claim was allowed and ordered paid. But the day after another patriot had set his country free and refused to acknowledge the claims on the previous Bdministration. The next day the President, who had been put to death, was buried and the cofin-maker rushing out seized the hearse horses by the bridle ex- chuming, * You are thieves—the coffin Is mine, the cotlin is minc!"” ‘They. bad to grasp and bind him, be was so Nerce, and the mob suid be hud gone mad. A German ship of war came into the port of Callao. VonGreik bouded it and asked the commander to recover bis debt, even if he had to bombard the town. But when he told the officer that it was a debt due tor coffins he laughed, and so did his other officers.
