Entered at the I'osto&ce at Plymouth, Indiana as second-class matter. Plymouth, Ind, May 30, 1907. Now that the G. A. R. encampment is over we need not regard it as vainglorious to say that the people uf Fort Wayne rose handsomely to the occasion, and gave the veterans of ths Indiana G. A. R. the handsomest and best entertainment that any Hoosier city ever jVouchsafed them. In the magnificence of preparations, cordial and willing aid given to the managers of the encampment, and the hearty warmth of walcome accorded the old soldiers, the city fairly outdid itself, and established forevr and aye a reputation for hospital ity. The decorations were on a scale of magnificence never before attempted, and committees and citizens gen erally failed in nowise to make the visitors feel at home and to entertain them properly. We are not alone in saying this, for the visitors said it first, and each- and all of them left, bearing away the most kindly and grateful recollections of Fort Wayne and its people. Our citizens display ed a spirit of patriotism in making the stay of the heroes of 1SC1 pleas ant and proved that our home is wor thy of the great soldier whose name it " bears. Journal Gazette. Three Cheers for Fort Wayne. The city of Fort Wayne has done itself great credit by the manner in which it entertained its' soldier guests at' the ro.ent encampment. It is not a small work nor a small expense o provide and care for ten thousand people. The city had for some time been at work raising means to de froy the expenses of decoration, arch es, bands of ymusic, and a hundred other preparations attended with much expense, and royally vfll she met all these manifold duties. The loyal public spirit exhibited by her citizens has given Fort Wayne a first place among the patriotic cities of Indiana. The, veterans that have returned tc Plymouth, as well as those thai passed through here enroute home unite in bearing witness to the cor diality of treatment received by tht citizens of Fort Wayne. The sentiment of the city toward the soldiers was well expressed in the first lines cf an editorial in one of the morning newspapers on the day of the reun ion: It said: "Hats off to the soldiers! When the great parade is in line of march let every citizen of Fort Wayqe lift his hat and stand with un covered head while the procession is marching, and thus sho our loyalty and. respect to these worthy veterans of our state." -r" In appreciation of this noble sentiment the Tribune adds: Let the citi zens of the state raise their hats and waft back to old Fort Wavne their high appreciation of her fine recep tioa ant! treatment to the soldiers o the state. Jt j j . Demise of Theodore? Tilton. Theodore Tilton, the former editor and lecturer, died Saturday in Paris Theodore Tilton ranked at one time as one of the foremost men in intellectual endowments in this conn iry. He was contemporaneous with Charles Sumner, Wende1! Phillips and Henry Ward Beecher, and ai though their junior in years the pos sibilities were within hi .each o equaling them in distinction. Under the stress of life he showed weakness and failed. Whether or not he was an injured man has been a question but when the cloud came over his life he went down. He never sought to recover the confidence of the people but left his country in the ear 70s sunk out of sight in Paris where he had lived ever since, supporting him self by his pen. His great ambition was to be editor of the New York In dependent, which at that period wa the most influential religious news paper in the United States. His fail urc in his broke his hcirt and hi domestic troubles turned against him the tide of a great career. His lec ure on JThe Problem of Life" that he delivered over the country in 187 r 1872, was one of the most master ful productions of oratory and com position ever delivered on the Ameri can rostrum, equaling Henry Ward Beccher's lectures and second only to those of Wendell Phillips. He sank out of sight soon after and lost hi identity to his country. Jß J Grief at Washington. New? of the death of Mrs. McKin ley caused profound sorrow in the na tionar capital, where she so long made her home. President Roosevelt learned of her death shortly after 2 o'clock, when he received a telegram from Secretary Cortelyou. He immediately announced that he would leave for Canton Tuesday night to attend the funeral. Secretary Root and Secretary of Agriculture Wilson ,the only members of the Cabinet who served under 0 President McKinle-, and the Rev. Dr. Frank Bristol, of the Metropolitan Methodist church, who was the McKinleys pastor, were deeply touched when they were told that Mrs. McKinley had expired. There were expressions of regret from many officials whose duties brought them in contact with the White house and from the attaches of the execu tive mansion, many of whom servd there during the McKinley administration. All paid the highest tribute to the memory of the late President's1 widow. President Roosevelt will be accom-. panied on his trip to Canton by Secretaries Root, Garfield and Wilson, Dr. Rixey and Secretary Loeb.

mrs. Mckinley dead.

Widow of the Martyred President Dies at Canton, O. Canton, O., May 2G. At 1:05 o' clock this afternoon Mrs. William McKinley fell into the sleep that knows no awakening. The transition rom life to -death was so peaceful and gradual that it was with diflicul Ity the 'vigilant physicians and attendant noted when dissolution came. There was no struggle, no pai in. Mrs. McKinley never knew of the e :fforts made for days to prolong he ife, nor of the solicitous hope again lSt hope of her sister and other relatives and friends for her recovery. At the McKinley home when death came there were present Secretary Cortelyou. Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Bar ber, Mrs. Sarah Duncan, Mrs. Luther D.iv. Tustice and Mr W'lliam R. Day, Drs. Portman and Rixey, and he nurses. It was by Secretary Cortelyou that the announcement of the demise was given to the public. As this was flashed over the land William McKinley post and George D. Harter post G. A. R. were forming in line, and to the strains of a band playing The March Religiosa ' went to he First Methodist Episcopal church to listen to the annual memorial address which was given by Dr. Buxton. Mrs. McKinley's pastor. The funeral arrangements so far as made are that Dr. Buxton will have charge of he service- which are to be simple. They will be held at the McKinley home at 2 o'clock Wednes day afternoon. Secretary. Cortelyou is, directing the arrangements, and will remain in Canton until after the funeral. Dr. Rixey left here at 3:53 this evening for Washington. He will join Pres ident Roosevelt and go with him on his trip to Indianapolis and Lansing this week. It was announced tonight that President Roosevelt and Secretary Loeb will arrive at Canton Wed nesday morning to attend the funeral services. Secretaries Root, Wilson and Gar field will also be with the presidential oartv. The body of Mrs. McKinley will be placed in the vault in West Lawn cemetery which holds the remains of her husband, until the completion of the national mausoleum on Moni: ment hill, when both caskets will be transferred to receptacles in that tomb. From numerous friends of the de ceased, Mrs. Barber this evening re ceived telegrams of condolence on the death' of her sister. Among them were telegrams from President Roosevelt and Vice President Fair banks. Mrs. McKinley's life of almost six ty years had been made familiar to the nation by the fact that more than half of it was a p&riod of invalidism Through all this, however, she show ed a firm and unwavering belief in the career of her husband, and by he cheering words in spite of personal afflictions encouraeed him when there was darkness at hand. She believed that his star of des tiny never would set until he had be come president of this land, and lor more than a quarter of a century cherished that belief until her hopes were realized. After President McKinley's death she expressed a desire to join him and prayed day by day that she might die". Later, however, she frequenlty told friends she desired to live unti the completion of the McKinley mausoleum, which is the gift of the nation, and which is to be dedicated on Monument hill Sept. 30 next. Mrs. Ida Saxton. McKinley was .he first child of James and Mary Saxton, of Canton, O. The families oi both her parents were among the first settlers of Ohio. She was born m Canton on June 8, 1847. As a chile and a young woman she was viva cious and had friends among al classes. She had the happy faculty of becoming endeared to those who Vnpw e-T a characteristic that she retained throughout her life. She had a sunny disposiion, combined with an earnest and - sympathetic charac ter. Mr. and Mrs. McKinley began their honeymoon in 18H in the picturesque cottage in Canton from the porch of whirh Mr. McKinlev made his speeches during the presidential cam paign of 1896. Ther.e, on Christmas day 1871, a daughter was born to them and there, three years later, the child died. In April 1873, another girl was born but died five months later. At about the same time Mrs McKinley's mother passed away. The shock of these combined griefs was more than her frail constitution could bear, and for many months her own life hung by a slender thread Her nervous system, most sensitive and high srung, was almost wrecked The most eminent specialists failed to restore her health. In early years Mrs. McKinley was a member of the Presbyterian church. She later joined the Methodist church She was active in Sunday schoo work. She acquired then as a teacher of the young a strong affection for children, which in later years was intensified. It was her gentle boat at one time that "every child in Canton was her friend." Her husband shared with her this characteristic. She had a cool headed judiciousness in judging the world that was a constant help to her husband. This faculty vvas developed in her to a degree that made it almost impossible to deceive her in matters of character. Yet this knowledge brought with it no hardening of the face, no furrows in the brow. Mrs. McKinley was tempermentally inclined not to worry, and this trait also she had developed to a point that will always make her -remembered. Hei patience was an inspiration to those who witnessed it. It added firmness to sweetness, purpose to tenderness, power behind attraction. She was a woman who well deserved to be the first lady of the land, while at the same time

she was a wife such as would have

brightened her home wherever her ortune might have been cast. G. A. R. Encampment Cost Ft. Wayne, Ind., May 2S. The general committee in charge of the G. A. R. encampment preparations, re ports that it is ::ble to pay all its debts and have a j.mall sum left. This will be. divided equally between the two Grand Army posts. The total cost of the encampment wasi in round numbers $3,900 and the total subscriptions about $6t200. The largest items of expense were the badges, $1,400; the decorations, $400; the printing bill, $."00; the two arches, $423 each, 'and the transportation of the twelve National Guard companies present, $1,000. The distinctive feature of the en campment was the Lawton medallion which app ared on all the badges. As rain poured down incessantly all day Wednesday the sale of the souvenir badges was a failure on that day and there are 600 of them left. These" hav been disposed of; to persons who will sell them to those attending the Lawton monument dedication at Indian apolis next Thursday. Roosevelt at Indianapolis. Memorial day in Indianapolis prom iscs to be full of activity. The principal events will be the unyeiling and dedication of the statute of Gen. Henry Lawton a 3 o'clock in the afternoon at which the pr sident of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, will deliver an address. Upon his arrival the president wiU be taken to the home of Vice President Chas. W. Fairbanks. The chief executive will leave the city at 6 o'clock in the evening for Lansing, Mich Previous to the president's arrival the regular memorial day program will be carried out by the G. A. R. organization at Crown Hill cemetery. This ar'.ngement was perfected in order that the veterans could be present at the unveiling exercises of the Lawton statute. President Roosevelt a ill arrive in the city at 10:43 in the morning and will be escorted to the home of Vice President Fairbanks, where he will be the guest of honor at a' luncheon to be served at 1 o' clock. ' He will be met at the Union station by the members orthe Lawton com mission,, representatives of the Grand Army of the Republic and a large reception committee, composed of prominent citizens. Two battalions of regular infantry, one battery of Unit ed States artillery and several com panies of the Indiana National guard .vill escort the president and his par ty from the depot up Illinois street to Washington street, thence east to Meridian street, around the magnificent soldiers' and sailors' monument, erected by the state of "Indiana to commemorate the deeds of her sons and then north to the home of the vice president. At 2:30 o'clock the president es corted by detachments of regular army troops national guardsmen and civil and Spanish war veterans will proceed to the county court house, where the Lawton monument will be vnveiled and where the president will deliver an address.

A Jaughter of General Lawton, who will attend the exercises with her mother, will unveil the monument. The statute of General Lawton is now in position at the southwest corner of the county court house grounds at Delaware and Washing ton streets. The court house occu pies a space of four acres' and is bounded by Delaware, Market, Alabama and Washington streets. Seats have been constructed around Gen. Lavvion's statute to accomodate 500 peop'e to whom invitations will be issued. Others who attend will have to take their chances at obtaining places where they can see and hear. Iroquois Cases Dismissed. New York, May 23. Fifteen cases asking in the aggregate for $250,000 damages for personal injuries and deaths caused by the Iroquois theater fire in Chicago were dismissed today by Judge Hough in the United States circuit court on the motion of Lawyer David! Garber, counsel for Klaw & Erlanger, the defendants. There yet remain twenty-eight similar cases, none of which, however, have been placed on the calendars of the federal courts for trial. It is expected, according to the lawyers, that these cases will be reached for trial at the October term. A great number of damage cases were instituted against Klaw & Erlangcr as the owners of the play appearing in the Iroquois and as owner of the theater. A number were tried in Chicago but the courts there failed to hold the New York theatrical firrr legally responsible and verdicts in its favor were returned. Forty-four damage suits against the same defendants were then filed in the federal court here and slated for trial, notwithstanding the fact that all of the interested parties except the defendants and all the witnesses resided in Chicago. Adjournments were had from time to time and recently asked again upon the ground that Lawyer Henry Yonge, the plaintiffs' attorney was very ill and his associate, Clarence H. Darrow was at present engaged with the HaywoodMoycr case in Boise, Idaho. Judge Hough today declined further delays and ordered the case dismissed when counsel for the plainiff announced they were not ready to proceed. Girl is Spanked for Eloping. Katis Sellers, aged 15, and George Grissom, aged 19, eloped to Evansville, Monday from Henderson, Ky., but were arrested. The father, upon the advice of the police judge, took his daughter into the back room and gave her an old-fashioned spanking.

Reassurance by thd President

If the published foiecast of Presi dent Roosevelt's Decoration day speech at Indianapolis is accurate the speech will be inspired by the presi dent's desire to disavow anything like radicalism in his attitude toward rail roads and other corporations. He will endeavor to reassure those interests as well as the conservative element of the people in general. He will emphasize his own conservatism by reprehending the almost revolutionary proposals of Senator LaFollette with respect to control of the railroads: We may well hope that the pub lished synopsis of the president's speech may prove to be accurate. H is high time that Senator LaFollette's socialistic and confiscatory doctrines should be repudiated by the Republi can party, and as the president is the leader and chief of that part his denunciation of Mr. LaFollette's dan gerous vagaries will come with the fullest force and authority. If President Roosevelt publicly condemns Senator LaFollette and his heresies the act will be equivalent to excommunication. Thenceforward it will clearly be understood that the Republican party is not responsible for the Wisconsin senator or his the ories. Such a consummation will be emi nently desirable. It is none too soon for the president to reassure the vast and varied business interests which have taken alarm at the utterances of men like Senator LaFollettt. ' We may even go o far as to say that the president himself, if he makes his conservatism clear, may dissipate certain misgivings which, unjustly and unwarrantably perhaps, have been excited by the executive attitude toward the great business and corporate institutions of the country. The time is ripe for a pronouncement clearly and unequivocally avowing that neither the president nor the Republican party is hostile to such institutions and that radicals like Senator LaFollette when they make war upon them do so without the authority of the party the president. There is, in short, an opportunity to remove all doubts and apprehensions with respect to the president's attitude toward the great business interests of the country. His exalted office lend the highest emphasis to all that he says. Some of his utterances have been misconstrued and exaggerated. So it' happens that while the extreme radicalism of Senator LaFollette has attracted relatively small attention the words of the president, though far less' emphatic, have been the occasion of serious alarm. If the Indianapolis speech sha1! quiet such alarm it will accomplish l most desirable reassuring end. Schools for Farmers Wives. The New York assembly has approved a very interesting idea that promises to becom- popular, especially in agricultural states. It has passed supply -bill containing an appropriation of $5 000 for an extension of the excellent work of farmers' institutes to th- feminine members cf the rural households. The item has been put into the bill for the express purpose of establishing separate institutes for farmers' wives and daughters. The idea is of course very simple. If the farmer can learn a good deal about his work and his economy from the discussions and exchanges of ex pcriences at the institutes, why should not similar meetings be held for the women of the farms? Isn't the work of the latter of real and rec ognized importance? Does it :iot con tribute to the success of the farm, and would not greater knowledge and more intelligent interest make for larger financial returns? Moreover, the institutes have a moral value. They make the life of the farm less narrow and monotonous; they stim ulate though and introduce an ele ment of recreation and pleasure. It seems that the idea was borrow cd from Canada, where women's in stitutes have been in successful oper ation for eight years and now claim a membership of more than 10,000 The topics at these institutes relate to the home life of the farm, to do mcstic science, food, sanitation, dec oration, and so on. The state depart ment of agriculture has done some thing to promote these farmers' wives meetings, but the initiative and inspiration came from leading women of the clubs and reading circles of the Dominion. Give the farmer's wife and daugh ter a chance. Take Notice. x Owing to the prevalence of smallpox in St. Joseph county, and the inefficiency of the Health officers of said county in dealing with the situation, and owing to the intermingling of citizens of this county with citizens andi neighbors of St. Joseph county, the disease is invading this county quite extensively. Therefore, I make this appeal to all citizens of Marshal county, to be on the alert and watch carefully for the first symptoms of the disease, and if sick and you are not absolutely certain that you have not small-pox, call your family physician and know for sure whether you have small-pox or not. And if you know of any cases of small-pox in your neighborhood you will do yourself and the health officer of this county a very great favor by notifying your nearest health officer of the cases at once, and vigorous measures will be taken to control it, as only in this way and by your liberal help and support can we cope with the disease and be masters of the situation. , Dr. L.

Council Meeting.

The council met in regular session M onday night, with all members present. Several permits were asked for, hich were referred to the proper w committees. Supt. Underwood made report on progress of the welis. The street commissioner reported th at many on whom he had served notice of road tax paid no attention to to it. The city attorney was directed take the - list and proceed against th c parties. Water bills were allowed to the amount of $525. The provisions of the franchise for th e new telephone company were read. The company, through Mr. L. M. Lauer, said that while the main rovisions of the franchise were satfactory, there were features to hich the company objected, the rincipal ones being the number of subscribers required to begin busi ness with ,the length of time allowed to procure the requisite number of subscribers, and. the most important objection, that which required the holding and sale of stock to be in the ands of farmers of the county. These exceptions were discussed by d.fterent members of the telephone company at considerable length, and finally the council asked permission or further consideration of the matter. Eggs. The following is the law govern ing the sale of decayed and rotten eggs: It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to sell or offer for sale any eggs after the same have been placed in an incubator or; to sell or offer for sale eggs in a rotten, decayed or decaying condition to be used for food. It shall be the duty of all peace and health officers to seize any eggs found to be unwholesome and which are intended for sale or offered for sale for human food. Any person, firm or corporation, found guilty of violating the provisions of this act shall be fined not less than ten nor more than one hundred dollars for each offense. City of Precious Stones. A prosperous world expends every year $25,000,000 in rough diamonds, and such of them as do not come from, the mines of Kimberly may be considered a negligible quantity, says the World Today. A very dreary toiwn, this Kimberly, dumped on the desolate African veldt, that produces not an ear of corn. Little better than a desert, in fact, where artificial irrigation is everywhere necessary. The city's streets stretch like protecting arms around the precious caves which in a few years have yielded more j than twelve tons' weight of diamonds, valued at half a billion dollars. Look back on the story of this desert patch and you have a strange romance. It begins; with two little bands of Boer emigrants fleeing out of Cape Colony a generation ago to escape British oppression. One of them by some strange fate settled on a patch of gold forty miles in extent, which has since become the famous Rand, and yields $100,000,000 every year in the precious metal. On the other hand, Burgher Jacobs offcaddled on 100 acres of diamonds and his little claim today contains an absolute monopoly of the wdrldfin these gems. His children used to play in the sand with bright pebbles for marbles. Neighbor Schalk Van Neikirk saw one of the stones, took it from the little ones with the remark that it might be valuable and the following ear it was on- show at he universal exposition of Paris as a magnificant diamond of 21 carats. Two years later old Van Neikirk himself picked out of the mud plaster of Neighbor Du Toit's hut the famous "Starfpf Africa," which sofld for $56,000. ThVt was the beginning of the diamond mines which today employ 15,000 Kaffir? and 4,000 Europeans. "All this for the vanity of women," as Lord Randolph Churchill remarked on his first visit to the diggings. Although the magic caves of South Africa turn out at least $20,000,000 worth of stones every year, and the DeBeers people are naturally the power of the African continent. Careful official calculation has it that fashionable New York alone wears $150,000,000 in precious stoines. As to diamonds alone, $57,000,000 worth of them in the rough were admitted into New York within the last five or six years. It is estimated that the duty on stones brought into America's greatest city during 190G will amount to moire than $4,000,000 or nearly half the entire appropriation for the expenses of he custom house. Curbs Power of Saloons. The supreme court at Indianapolis, held Tuesday that a city ordinance not only forbidding saloons outside of the business part of the city but also defining the boundaries of the business part, so a to include only a few squares surrounding the courthouse and the place where most of the business is done is valid. It held that the only ground on which such an ordinance can be successfully attacked is that the city has been guilty of an unreasonable abuse of its power and1 discretion in declaring such boundaries. It also declared that a state "may authorize saloons to be licensed and that the saloon business Is lawful except as declared unlawful by the staite.

Rewards of Statesmanship. A New York legislator oaice was looking at his mail. No wonder that he , flushed at first, nor that he then turned pale, For if you'd seen the postal cards that poured in by the peck You would have known constituents were jumping on his neck. "You are a dog," the first one said, "and ought to wear a chain," "We'll show you what is what, you chump, if you should run again." "You traitor to the people, you, go jump into the bay." He saw the bunch was such as these, And threw the rest away. Philadelphia Ledger.

Observing Memorial Day. Memorial day, which with us of Indiana will have unusual significance this year by reason of the presence of the President, has of late years been taking on a new significance. It has been becoming more of an American, less of a sectional day. The day was first observed in the South, we believe, although the appropriateness of it was soon generally recognized. Gen. Fred Grant, in a .recent newspaper article, pointing out how much his father wanted to see an end of all rancor between the North and South, says that as far back as 1SG7 the women of Columbus, Miss., going out to decorate the graves of the dead soldiers, strewed flowers alike on the graves of the Federal and Confederate dead. Something like 30,000 Confederate soldiers lie buried in the various Northern cemeteries. How many of the boys in blue lie under Southern skies will perhaps never be exactly known. In 1006 Congress made provision for caring for the graves of the Confederates in the North. A commissioner was appointed to see that they were properly marked and $200,000 was appropriated for the purchase of headstones. It has long been a part of the day's observance to see that the graves of the Confederates were decorated and thus gradually in this beautiful ceremony is reflected the passing feeling of separation and the growing feeling of oneness. It is natural that it should be so, but it has come .with speed and is spreading with completeness. There is, it would be, hardly too much o say, no rancor now because of issues of the civil war. That great conflict has passed into history. It settled things for which it was fought. Mistakes that followed it and that preceded it have alike gone to the ob; livion of things that were. We have in truth entered on a new era and at nö time has this been more plainly marked than in these most recent years when the time of the country's great and general prosperity has made prominent new , subjects in which North and South are alike interested. The brief war with Spain was hailed as an occasion that demonstrated the loyalty of the South. We believe, in short that there is as complete union among all parts of this country as there has been in any country; more complete, certainly than thdre ever was with us when, succeeding the colonial period, the question of slavery served to make a division that only the great and heroic process of war finally 'healed. But it is healed now, and Memorial day becomes doubly a time when none is reluctant to confess that American valor is worthy of remembrance, and while in a higher sense there must always be a recognition supreme of those that died to save the Union, that Union is now alike the heritage of us all, and the bravery that gave its life in the great contest is felt and recognized because it was American. Indianapolis News. Let the Prince Come. Many German papers (appear to be dangerously near lese majesty. They criticise the kaiser's reported intention to send one of his. sons to Harvard. That is an assumption that they know more than he does about a subject to which he has probably given mature consideration. Even if the papers are wiser than the kaiser, they ought to be careful about saying so. It is evident that the papers in question are not so well disposed towards the United States as is the kaiser who never neglects an oppotunity to show his friendly feeling. The ' German editors say that if one of the kaiser's sons were sent to Harvard, he "might, in the empire of machines and dollars lose the proper appreciation of the roots from which the German people draws its strength." In other words, he might be Americanized. It might be a misfortune if that were to happen to the prince who is some day to ascend the throne. It would be a misfortune if he were oui of touch with his people. That would make him an unsympathetic and possibly unsuccessful ruler. Being imbued with American spirit he might Iry to Americanize Germany too rapidly instead of going at that desirable work gently and gradually. It is nofiikely that the prince w'.io is to be sent to Harvard will become emperor, and it will do no harm to have one member of the imperial house with a knowledge of American life at.d thought. He will be a wise counselor when questions arise affecting the two nations. He may be able to inoculate Germany with a little wholesome Americanism and repay in part the 'debt America owes to German example and" influence. Chicago Tribune.

Michigan Coeds in Armr. The Lansing, Mich., coeds are up in arms over the inconveniences and duties imposed on them by President Roosevelt's visit this week and President Snyder has his hands full with eighty indignant juniors refusing to help out by waiting on guests at the table during President Roosevelt's stay. The sophomores and freshmen join with them. The girls are asked to give up their beds and bedding, go into the basement and sleep on the soft side of a board. "You may leave your clothes in your rooms," President Snyder said. One junior coed said. "It would-be nice, wouldn't . it, to say, 'President Snyder, please' hand me those ahem, you will find 'em in the middle drawer, of my bureau' or yes m' face powder, please, along with my cold cream.' When we wait on the table for his guests it will be when we receive tickets for our friends "We asked President Snyder if we might have tickets for our parents and invite them to attend and occupy our rooms, but no, no, just one ticket apiece, and the rooms must be given over to the senators- and reprcsentaives who have comfortable quarters in the downtown hotel." Morgue Points a Moral Two fathers met Tuesday amid the grim surroundings of a morgue and after gazing upon the bodies of their dead, one looking at a daughter and the other at a son, parted realizing in the fullest sense the wages paid those that follow the "great white way." Rev. Seward Tincy of Grand Rapids, Mich., was one of the fathers and he was present to take charge of he body of his daughter Leah, 20 years of age. She was shot Sunday night in a resort at 43 Carpenter street. Beside the minister stood C. A. Eckman of LaGrange, ill. He had come to claim the body of his son lyiug beside that of the girl. Young Eckman had killed the girl before shooting himself through the head. The pathos of the sequels to the tragedies that occur with unfailing regularity and become a part of the lights and shadows of a great city was intensified by the meeting of the fathers. What bitterness might have been felt by 'cither was concealed and each left the morgue taking with him his dead. The body of the girl was taken to Grand Ra;ids. That of the boy will be buried in Dorr, Mich, on the little hill beneath the pincf. of the. sheep pasture where I used to play," as the young man wrote just before he committed his double . crime. The story of the dead couple is aiot unlike that of many others. Two years ago the minister's daughter came to Chicago to study music. Bohemia appealed to her, but she soon found herself outside her limits and in the underworld. Time after time the father sought to have her return home, but she refused. An attachment for young Eckman is supposed to have caused her refusal. Ihey were together for some time. Last Sunday morning their bodies were found lying side by side both dead. Letters left by the man showed that he had killed the girl and then shot himself. Tuesday his father and the father of the girl arrived in Chicago and met almost simultaneously at Sheldon's morgue, 230 West Madison stree-t, where the bodies lay. Will Change the Flyr Schedules. According to reports published in Pittsburg papers the schedule of the fast New York-Chicago flyers on both the Pennsylvania and Lake Shore roads will be lengthened and instead of making the run in eighteen hours as hereofore the trains will be placed on a ninctcen-hour basis. Passenger traffic officials of both these roads will meet in conference at the sessions of the Central Tassengcr association in Chicago this week, when it is expected that a ofScial statement bearing the news will be issued.
