The body of Burton was found in a rocking chair at his home, 1019 Sheridan street, on August 16. CONRAD TELLS Continued From Page One tions have been held, his eyes first .fall upon a statue (a true likeness) In the center of the great hall, of the martyred President Lincoln. How appropriate it is that this stature should adorn the center of this hall during this most unique occasion. I never look upon the face of this greatest of all Americans but when I get a new inspiration. As I looked upon Lincoln's statue, I thought, too, that this exposition was a vindication for Daniel O'Connell, the distinguished Irish statesman who Btood in the British parliament, In the face of great opposition and uncompromisingly contended for the American negro's freedom and equal rights. I thought of Charles Sumner, the 'American statesman,-who fought, untiringly for the negro; I thought of .Wendell Phillips, who made Fanueill hall famous by his matchless oratory In defense of the negro. . This exposition was a complete vindication. K Indiana Has Exhibit. . The exhibits showing the progress of the race are displayed by sections, each state and religious denomination having a section of the hall assigned to it Notably, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan.Illinois, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Tennesee, Alabama, Mississipi and various other states. Indiana's exhibit showed up creditably with the exhibits of some of the other states. Industrially and agriculturally the colored people are making wonderful progress. Along the line of Inventions it was shown by the Census Bureau at Washington that more than 1,000 patent have been granted to colored people. Granville T. Woods and Thomas McCoy being the most prominent. More than sixty inventions of Woods are on display. They ire in use by such corporations as le Westingbouse Air Brake company, he General Electric Co., and the Electric Magnetic - Co.

Her Husband's Widow

SYNOPSIS. : ' Leslie Morne, a governess, goes, to walk by the sea and is spoken to by a mas she does not know. She 1 rescued from his Attentions ; by Victor Steele, sergeant, in the British army, whom she later marries. She finds married life wearisome and refuses to follow Steele to Egypt. Then-she hears of his death and conceals the fact that she Is his . widow. Four years later, married to Oswald Varney and mother of a boy, she meets Steele face to face in Jerusalem. He tells her to keep the past secret, and her husband announces that Steele is going to sail with them. There had been a dispute with, the stewardess about the number of her cabin, and. when Leslie at last came on deck , the French, steamer .was standing out to : sea. : Alexandria extended, a glistening white wall behind the masts and funnels of the harbor, to where on . either side the long yellow line of coasts was faintly marked against the golden sky. Leslie, leaning on the bulwarks, turned In the direction of their gaze. She was a woman waving a. handkerchief, and next to her '.stood Victor Steele, raising his hands to his mouth to shout a last farewell to the men in the launch. Leslie averted her gaze and looked down Into the blue waters. He had come,' then.' To her surprise and Oswald's vexation, he had not been aboard the Austrian boat which had brought them from Jaffa, and from which they had transhipped to the Marseilles steamer. But, as Oswald pointed out, a Russian boat left Jaffa at the same time as theirs, and he had doubtless come cn by that. ' She did not feel sorry. On the contrary, she experienced a thrill of pleasure at the prospect of being so close to him for five days. When she remembered that they were to sleep beneath the same roof if one might so speak of the deck of a vessel she seemed to blush from head to foot. Well she shrugged her shoulders and made a faint grimace. She turned and found herself face to face with Victor. "I'm sorry," he said in a low voice; "this could not be avoided. I hope things won't be too dlffcult for you." She looked down at the deck, white and hot In the blazing sunlight "I'm glad for some things," she said. He bowed slightly as if thanking her. She was about to move away, when some impulse made her inquire. "Is the lady who came on board with you a friend of yours?" He smiled a little oddly, she thought. "Well, yes," he said, "I suppose I may call her so. I haven't seen her forsome time, though. I hardly expected to see her in the boat." He paused awkwardly. "Well, we shall meet again, Mrs. Varney," he said, with a graver smile, and disappeared below deck. She dressed that evening with especial care, and for the first time since she had left England regretted that she had not brought her maid with her. nominations to uplift the colored people, are highly Interesting; almost every denomination being represented one way, or another, ',. The . A. M., E. church,, a . distinctively colored religious body, has a highly creditable exhibit, showing the many industrial and academic schools maintained by this church. The Colored Baptist church, whose national association represents thousands of people, meets in Chicago during this exposition, also has a commendable exhibit. These two latter are the largest distinctively colored religious bodies in the United States. The Presbyterians, Methodists, Congregatlonalists, Episcopalians have interesting exhibits of their schools in the south, but the most elaborate is that . of the Catholic church, which covers one entire side of the Coliseum. The School of Benedict the Moor, located at Milwaukee, Wis., and the school for young col ored men, located at Rock Castle, Va., being the most notable. This latter school bids fair to become another Tuskegee. It is an industrial and agricultural college and 'covers several hundred acres of ground. The boys are taught to become mechanics, farmers, dairymen, blacksmiths, carpenters, tailors, shoemakers and almost every other trade. Other lines of Progress. Road wagons, buggies and harness were on exhibition, showing superior workmanship on the part of the boys. The girls, under the Order of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacriment and Oblate Sisters of Providence, displayed great ability in domestic science and needle work. Many paintings of colored artists were on exhibition, notably those of H. O. Tanner, whose famous painting, "The Raising of Lazarus," was purchased by the French government. One of the most interesting relics was the bedstead and mattress on which the martyred president died, and the other was the "Door leading to Libby Prison." The music for the occasion was rendered by the Eighth Regiment colored band. The officers of this regiment are colored men. Congress appropriated $75,000 for the success of this exposition and the several states represented made contributions. So much Importance was given the exposition that the Chicago city council resolved that the opening day should be a legal holiday. Two prominent streets, were beautifully decorated . with American .flags and bunting. This was a great tribute to the colored people. The exposition has the endorsement of such eminent people as . Cardinal Gibbons, Bishop Fallows, Ex-Governor Dunne, Andrew Carnegie, Miss Jane Addams and many others of equal note. A Honolulan mother Is said naively to have named a male scion Mrs. Tompkins. Poor Pussy, . Mrs. Turkey, Mr; Scissors and. The Man Who Washes His Dimples are other decorations in the Hawaiian directory..

Her ' skln beneath the sunburn was aa flawless as when she had left Hastings four and a half years ago. It was finer, anil mors delicate. "I am twice as pretty now,!., she told herself. She did herself less -than justice. Varney Glad to Hear That Steels has Come. . ; Her toilette was hardly ' complete when Oswald by a discreet Up demanded admittance. He sat on the

edge of he lower berth and surveyed her with amused surprise.: . . - ''Why these elaborate preparations T he Inquired.; Anyone - would think,: to look at you, that we were in the Lusttenia instead of this old butterboat My dear girl, your powers of fascination will be wasted here. ' There's not a soul worth speaking to aboard. He broke off and i asked - eagerly : "Has Steele turned up, do you know?" "Yes,' answered Leslie, studying the effect of a slight alteration in the dressing of -her hair. "He came out in the launch when we were already moving." "Thank the Lord for that! Someone to talk to, at any rate. There don't seem to be many women aboard." "One came in the launch with Captain Steele.' I thought she looked rather nice, but I couldn't tell you what she had on." . ' "What ever could nave been occupying your mind at that ' moment? Well, I suppose I had better put on a dinner jacket." . She was conscious of a good many heads turned to look at her as the steward piloted -her te her place beside Oswald at the captain's table. Leslie's eyes were roaming around the saloon in search of Victor. She saw him at another table. He was listening with apparent interest and en joyment to the animated conversation of the lady next to him. with whom he had come aboard. The first thing anyone would have noticed about her was her eyes. They were not very large and they seemed to be of apale greenish gray; but they flashed and glittered so that you might have mistaken them for diamonds. Indeed, they were very much more brilliant than the real diamonds with which the lady had plentifully bedecked her unnaturally yellow hair and her rather daring corsage. She was a woman of perhaps two or three and thirty certainly older than Steele; haggard of face, with nothing to boast of in the way of figure or complexion, which last, however, she had resolutely revived by a liberal use of powder and rouge. She talked in a soprano voice so loudly that she could be heard even at the Varneys table. "Now I call that a jolly fine woman that Steel's got bold of." said Oswald in his wife's ear. He had evidently been observing her as closely as she. "Do you?" she said, turning her face back toward the table. "I don't know that you are not right She is not a bit pretty, and she doesn't know how to make up, but yes.. I can see that she has charm." (To be Continued) FORD SHOWS CLASS H. E.

Judge Deery, in police court, declared the gypsies were violating a state law and ordered them to leave the city, despite their presentation of permits.

We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney, trouble. . The kidneys do their utmost to free tne blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithla, and has bsen used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. . Jad Salts Is Inexpensive and cannot Injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithla-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and. active.. .
