You can't always tell a milk train by its cow-catcher. If a man is a coward be always claims to be conservative. Walking delegates usually ride at the expense of others. Instead of doing things today the wise man did tbem yesterday. Borne men waste a lot of valuable time explaining their actions. A man who is satisfied with his job never reaches the top of the ladder. What has become of the leap-year "Society for the Prevention of Old Bachelors?" Married women who know how to manage husbands seldom give their plans away. A young man's idea of an attractive girl is one who doesn't care for ice cream or oysters. A large portion of our standing army does a stunt on the street cars during the rush houra. It is easier for a married man to pack bis trunk than ii is for a bachelor? beeause he has less to pack. When it comes to a quick parting the fool and his money are a close second to a woman and her secret. I WEST END. Happenings nud Incident* of a Wei k About tbe Citjr. Mr. and Mrs. T. H.

"The little cooper drinkingfountains for dogs, put od the street corners at bottom of lampposts," said the man who stands all day at Fifty-ninth street and Lexington avenue banding out transfer tickets, "would be a tine thing if the dogs got a chance to them, They are attractive in appearance, and are all right until freezing time. They are too shallow for winter weather. The dog fountains are filled every morning by men from the Humane society, and it is the early dog that gets the drink. As soon as the car rush begins, good by doggie. "This fountain has been here just one week. In that time I have seen a man waiting for a crosstown car spoil the dog's chance with a mouthful of tobacco juice; then kids and young men fill 'em up with cigarettes; eeen women aDd girls throw orange peel and apple cores into them; matches are thrown into them by the dozen. Before noon that dog fountain looks like a email swill-pail. Dogs prefer, the leakings of a fire hydrant on tbe opposite corner. "In summer the dog fountains will be a blessing, but the people will have to be taught that they are for the use of dogs, not hogs." Look lng Into tbe Future.

EdltorPressand Banner: In tbe Issue of your paper of tbe 24th Jan. appeared a communication over tbe signature of "Benex,'*In which he makes a futile attempt to prove that tbe Long Cane Cemeery was from the first, and bas always been considered as a public burying ground and not as belonging to tbe Upper Long Cane C urcb. He also attempts to prove that we cannot produce the title deed to establish our claim. But lflt Is necessary to produce the deed In order to prove our claim, we are prepared to do so, as we have In our possession the deed and plot to eighty one (81) acres, which was formerly the real estate of Upper Long Cane "Presbyterian Church," and three fourths of that land lies on tbe west side of tbe Due West road, on wblcb tbe cemetery was, from tbe first, established, and from which it has never been Isolated aud separated, ae "Senex" claims, by the road leading from tbe Due West road, by way of Mr. Dusenbery's and Intersecting tbe Anderson road. Tbe Idea that tbe cemetery has been Isolated for generations from this Long Cane land by a little country road running through It (until recent years,) Is absurd. This road, and also tbe Due West rond, passed through tbe Upper Long Cane lands. Hence, so far as these roads traversed tbe -Long Cane lands, they were the property of Upper Long Cane Churcb, yettbe public could not be denied tbe right of way through them. "Senex," takes un to task, and undertakes to Bet up tbe claim, that tbe cemetery was a "detached piece or land, Id Its purchase" and was purchased by tbe people of that community generally and then dedicated as a burying place for tbelr dead. Something over an acre of the old cemetery was purchased from Dr. J. F. Livingston in J866, and added to tbe original graveyard, and paid for by "Presbyterian Upper Long Cane Church," and titles made to that cburcb. But "Senex" askes "for whose benefit and for what purpose Is this claim now set up by Rustic," and emphasized by M. V. Dusenberry?" Wf answer, it Is for the purpose aDd benefit of those who are lgDorautof lacts concerning Long Cane Cemetery. tie then asks, "Is it to remind those of us <So, tbat It will be a mere matter of grace on the part of the Upper Long Cane Congrega t'on If they shall be allowed tbat privilege?" No, tbe people of LoDg Cane are liberal, gen* erous hearted, fair minded congregation of Scotch Irish Ppesbyterlans who would not stoop to do so mean a thing as deny "Senex." or any otber white person, tbe spac of six foot soil In Upper Long Cane Cemetery, and should we survive blm, we hope to see tbat he is properly laid to rest in tbe best spot Id jjnag v/l*uo jti couj 101 tan uciuuai j , o??u < "Rustic" and hid "numerous progeny" have to be put away In tbe strangers row, or In the driveway. "Senex" asks where Is the proof that this cemetery Is the property or Long Cane Cbnrcb, we answer In tbe titles and plot held by that church. Ifthlswasnot tbe property of Long Cane Cburcb, what was It when It was cut up, and sold In lota to various parties, that Long Cane Church was tbe only party that could make a legal title to these lots ? Will "Senex" please rise and explain. As to the new portion added by tbe ladles of the Abbeville Society, we set no claim on that; yet It was formerly a part of the real estate of Upper Long Cane Church as every one knows. We are perfectly aware that all denominations have bulled their dead for generations past In Long Cane Cemetery, and they always shall do so, If they choose. No one has ever been denied the privilege and no|oneever will be denied that liberty. We are sorry that we have been forced Into this controversy, for there Is very little good to be gained by a newspaper wrangle, and when It occurs over a graveyard, the sacred City of tbe dead. It Is especially to be deplored. Tbe two Cemetery Societies worked together harmoniously while the noble Christian woman, Mrs. Link, (whom everybody loved) was at the head of the Abbeville Sorlety. But matters have not run so smooth since her death, we are sorry to say It. Rustic. CbHrminK Old Cfyuirti.
