GEN. MAGRUDER's REMAINs.-ln .
letter addressed to James Barron Hope,
editor of the Norfolk Nirgjnian from
Baltimore, Mr.. Allan b. Magruder, says
a committee of the citizens Of Galveston,
Texas, had written an earnest appeal to
the family for permission to remove the
remains of the gallant General from
Houston, for interment in the cemetery
at Galveston, with the object of erecting
handsome and appropriate monument
over them at the latter place. This re-
quest was granted, and therefore the
project for their removal to Richmond
is at an end BY the side of the heroic
Albert Sidney Johnson, whose remains
also repose in the soil Of Texas, he will
sleep perhaps as calmly and be as honor
ed as in the bosom OF his native Virgin
ia, where his memory will ever be cher
ished as one of her most deserving sons.

all the arrangements by stamping her
feet and scolding her tall escort, and fl
nally she said in her vexation, I'm go
ing up and I'm going to kiss him, too"
and she elbowed her way through the
crowd and bestowed a hearty salute on
the philosophers chaste cheek which he
received with the meekness of lamb,
Then al Eruption of kisses commenced.
The Hoosier girls broke from their es-
corts and showered their genial favors
on the fair face of the Liberal chief in
such profusion that he found it more
difficult to respond than usual. One
girl, returning to her big beau, said tri-
umphantly, i've kissed our future Pres
ident right in the mouth !"

THE VIRGINIA RUSTIC SUNDAY SCHooI.
CoNcERr.-The concert given last night
at St Paul's Nj. Z. Church South, on
West Fayette street, by "a rustic Sun
dav school" from the Valley in Virgin
pinia. in connection with Trinity Sun
day school, of this city, was largely at
tended, and was very enjoyable affair.
The ..rustic Sunday school" as it is
termed, consists of about fifty singers
belonging to the singing class of st.
Andrews NJ T. Church South, of Har-
risonburg, Va, who arrived in this city
about II o'clock on Monday night, hay
ing been detained about three hours by
an accident on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. A platform was erected over
the altar place of the church, upon which
the two schools were seated, Trinity
upon the right, and the Harrisonburg
school upon the left. All of the girls
were dressed in white, the ''rustic girl"
wearing blue sashes.
The singing of the "rustics" was led
by III. L. Wartman, leader of the sing
ing class, who performed the difficult
task ofplaying the organ and directing
the singing at the same time. The
singing of the Trinity school, known as
Il. J.Magruder's singing class, was led
by Charles w. Buckingham, with IL.
ID. Huet at the organ. Previous to the
beginning of the regular programme, a
song of welcome, written by Mrs. Geor-
gia A. Hulse, Mcleod, was sung by the
st. Pauls Sunday School, led by George
G. Payne. Prayer was next offered by
Rev. Mr.. Fitzpatrick, of the Harrison
burg Church. The regular programme
was afterwards gone through with, the
schools generally singing alternately:
J Both school sung well, but the general
verdict seemed to be that the ''rustics
carried off the palm. THE Old, Old
Story" was the first hymn sung,in which
both schools joined The principal
singers OF the st. Andrew s School were
Misses Alice Rohr, Mollie Johnson and
Mary Evans, sopranos, and Miss Annie
Evans, alto. The singing by Misses
Lizzie Thomas, Emma George, Maria
Speddcn, May Magruder and Phoebe
Green, of the Trinity School, was much
! admired
The visit Of the Harrisonbnrg Sunday
! School to Baltimore was at the instance
of T. J. Magruder, and +. &. Maxwell
met the party in Washington, en- route
from Virginia, and accompanied them
to Baltimore. The singing class is ac-
companied by about 100 Others, inclu-
ding the pastor, Rev. Mr.. Fitzpatrick,
and Geo. o. Conrad, principal superin-
dent Of the school The school, after
/ having arrived here on Monday night,
were taken up to Trinity Church, on
Madison avenue, and there assigned
homes while in Baltimore. a concert
will be given in the Central VI. +. Church

ginians They give concert at Wash

THE ENTHUSIASTIC oRANeEwoMAN.

While the OIangemen were passing through
Fourteenth street, in parade, on the 18th Of
last month, an enthusiastic admrcr OF the Dutch
Prince, named Mary Duncan, posted herself on her
doorstep, and, as the procession marched past,
waved a large, orange-colored sash, at the same
time giving vent to her feelings in expressions Of
admiration for their cause. Peter Campbell q
pugnacious son OF the Emerald isle took
exceptions to Mrs. Duncan's conduct. and, without
much ado assembled the steps and threw her vio-
lently to the pavement, injuring her "se-
vereiy, internally, externally and Internally"
as she herself stated: Peter was ar
arralgned before the bar at the Court OF SPECIAL
Sessions for trial. Mr.. Abe II. Hummel appeared
rs his counsel and as the evidence against his
client was conclusive, he had recourse to the expe-
dent OF showing that his client was man Of most
excellent general character, and therefore should
be punished as lightly as possible. The prisoner
was rcmanded for sentence.

THE NEWARK STRAW BAILISTS.

In the case Of the persons recently arrested in
Newark on charge OF conspring to cheat Newark
citizens out of bail for Harris, the notorious re-
ceivcr, and who had an examination few days
ago, the Police Justice rendered decision yester-
day, In which he set forth that the test
mony was clear that McNichols and Jacks
were professional bail brokers, and that had
their plans succeeded they would have defrauded
citizens out OF considerable sums. There was no
doubt with him but the bonds and mortgage were
fraudulent. He therefore felt 10 his duty to hold
the parties for the action OF the Grand Jury. Jacks
and McNichos were remaDded TO jail In default Of
$4,000 ball each. 'Missn Augusta Harris, whose
husband has just been relcaaed from Sing Sing was

James Gordon Bennett, the founder and
proprietor of the New York Herald, died
yesterday in New York. He was born
about the year 1900, at New Mill, Keith,
in Banfshire, Scotland. BE remained at
school in his native town till about fourteen
years of age, when he went to Roman
Catholic seminary in Aberdeen, with view
Of preparing for holy orders in that Church,
of which his parents were members. BE
remained at that institution two or three
years, when he abandoned the intention of
entering upon an ecclesiastical career, and
soon after emigrated to this country. BE
appears to have taught school in Halifax, then
read proofin Boston, and in 1922 he came for
the hrst time to New York, and after a
short connection with the press there, &C
cepted a situation on the Charleston
Courier. Returning to New York, he pur-
sued various avocatiOns until 1925, when
he made his first attempt to become the
proprietor of public journal, having pur-
chased the Sunday Courier, but being I'M
successful, he disposed of that journal, and
in 1926 became closely connected with the
National Advocate, a Democratic news
paper, published by Mr.. Snowden, and
from that time he took an active part in
the politics of the country. He
was next engaged with the late
NJ. M. Noah, as associate editor of the
Enquirer, and became an acknowledged
ring of the Tammany Society. During
the Presidential election of 1928 be was de-
voted to the interest of Gen. jackson, and
wrote quite a number of articles on the
United States Bank, sustaining the course
of ''Old Hickory" In May, 1885, he issued
the first number of the Herald, with which
journal his name has since that time been
identified. Mr.. Bennett has quite family

Death Of James Gordon Bennett.

NEW YORK, June flames Gordon
Bennett died this afternoon at 5:25 O'Clock.
His son and daughter are expected to reach
here from Europe next Saturday.
The Herald, in announcing the death of
Mr.. Bennett, says:
"Five years ago Mr.. Bennett entirely
withdrew from the active management of
the Herald. But although feeble in frame
his general health had been remarkably
good, while his fine intellect remained I'M
impaired, and his interest in the events of
the day continued undated up to the mo-
ment Of his fatal illness. About
half past O'Clock last Saturday
afternoon Mfr. Bennett suffered a Sigh
convulsive attack accompanied by epileptic
symptoms, but not sufficiently marked or
violent to excite apprehension of immediate
danger. At half-past O'Clock last Sunday
morning the attack was repeated with great
severity. From that time the end become
evident, although the constant attendance
of doctors Ceccarini, Hammond and Lusk
insured the exhaustion of all within
the reach Of human effort to
avert the fatal result. On Tuesday last at
the request of Mr.. Bennett, Archbishop
McCloskey visited his bedside and admin
istered to him the sacraments of the church.
When the last hour arrived he sank to
sleep in death calmly and peacefully, and
his soul passed away without a struggle.
Mr.. Bennett was in the nth year of his
age"

ALOUIsVILLE SENSATION.

Quite a sensation was produced at one
of the Broadway palatid residences in
Louisville on the 29th ult. Last December
an advertisement appeared in the Cincin-
natl ENQUIRER entitled correspondence
Wanted" A young lady and Broadway
musician answered, and so pleased was the
advertiser-who, in the meantime had gone
to New York-with her letters that an ex-
change of photographs was made. Each
was delighted with the other picture, which
seemed to possess familiar but unknown,
charms. Marriage was Immediately decided
upon, and the young man requested her
true name that be might visit her and pro-
duce satisfactory references as to his char
acter, Louisville being his home also.
Anxiously he awaited the reply, which
came, disclosing the startling fact hat the
lady was his own sister. Two years. alb
sence had filed his face with whiskers, and
changed the school girl into beautiful wCr
man. The gentleman attempts to treat it
as a good joke, but the, lady is almost in
consolable that she should have wasted her
affections upon her own brother.

Moro AIabama NEGOTIATION,

NEW YORK, June IA special dispatch
from London says that on Thursday the
Alabama negotiations were ended and all
efforts to secure an agreement Of the gov
ernments on the supplementary article were
definitely relinquished. Yesterday negoti-
atoms were reOpened On the part of the
British government which gives color to the
supposition that it has reconsidered its de-
termination not to accept the Senate's
amendments of the supplementary article.
The point Of the present difficulty is the
absence from the article of any word
which can be heldas defining indirect claims
and failure to declare what class of claims
is designated by the term indirect. 1t is
thought it would be likely to lead to the in

The committee of nine to whom was re-
ferred the memorial from the preachers of
New Orleans, asking for an additional
Bishop of African descent in the South,
presented their report. They consider it a
very reasonable request, and think compli-
ance with it will show that the Methodist
Episcopal Church opens its doors to men
of all colors and races. They consider
color or race is no bar TO the Episcopacy.
Being of Artisan descent does not prevent
eligibility to the highest offices in the
Church.
The report was adopted mem. con.
