This is a most worthy act of the order; I jet others follow. Mrs. Elizabeth Graham, of 4121 Fairfax avenue, beloved mother of Miss Minnie Graham, departed this life Sunday, Feb. 17. at 7:05 o'clock.

She leaves two daughters, three sons and many friends to mourn her loss. She was a member of Hig Zion church. 2625 Morgan street, and was also connected with the True Reformers. We have known Mrs. Graham for the past six as she was a subscriber to the Palladium during that time and until her death.

We never met a better Christian lady in our life always ready to give a good word to those that were in low spirits, and was ever ready to look upon the bright side of things. We all will miss her kind words of cheer, but none will miss her more than her dear, loving children. May the good Lord dry the tears and bind the sad heart of the dear relatives and friend and bid them look forward to the time that they will meet- In the Heaven Heaven, and it will be theirs to bask in the sunlight of our God are the wishes of tbe Palladium. Why is It that Mime Negro women sht-il so many crocodile tears at the funeral of those women with whom they wen not on sjieaklng terms: so much so that it causes comment? My advices to ihem is lo keep their crocodile tears bark and lie honest. A New Coon in Town.

Abraham Lincoln Lee, Treasurer of Dead Beat Society.

Mr. A. L. treasurer of the Dead Hear Society, is a dandy, indeed. It is a pity that he nas a wife and daughter, who are ladies in the best of society, and are forced to lie mortified by the conduct of the man who wants to lie something and doesn't know.

A Coon Whose Picture Is in the Rogue's Gallery at Four Courts. A few days ago a lady and gentleman were inquiring altout the condition of the Palladium Man and remarked they hoped he would soon be out again. Wliereuiwin, this coon, whose picture is in the rogue's gallery, salt he wished the Palladium Man would die. The gentleman said: "Von ought to lie ashamed, and the lust person to say a word against him. for If he knew that you said anything alioiit him he would not leave a greasy snit of you.
