Retold by Secretary Bayard Before the
Missouri State University-The Election
of Thomas jefferson to the Presidency
Aaron Burr's Part In the Politics of That
Time.
ST.. LOUIS, June A special from Col
ombia, No, to the Globe-Democrat says:
ST. cretsry of State Baysrd and U. S. Sena-
tor Vest arrived here this morning, accom-
panied By a carload of lesser Democratic
lights from ST. Louis, to attend the COM
mencemeut and other services at the State
University. A crowd of citizens and visit
ors met the gentlemen at the station and
the procession, headed by Gov. Marmaduke
and stLs;sas horsebsekr started at once
Tor the University, amidst the waving
of flags and the firing Of
cannon. The commencement exercises
of the University occupied until noon, when
an original marble tablet on which isinscribed
the memorial epitaph of Thomas Jefferson,
and which was presented to the University
by heirs of Mr.. Jefferson, was unveiled, and
Senator Vest delivered long and elaborate
grafton on Thomas Jefferson, in which he
fully reviewed the life of that distinguished
statesman, and in most eloquent terms.
When Mr.. Vest closed, calls were made for
Mr.. Bayard, and he came forward, and after
prolongued applause said
Bayard's Speech.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.-There is but
one word proper for me now; it is CRATE
iul acknowledgment that have been per-
mitted to attend the exercises here in the
centre OF Missouri and among the people OF
Missouri, and permitted to witness the pro-
sress of the greatest work in Missouri, the
raisinys of the minds and hearts OF her
people. This is
Edifcation
in its true sense. 1t is the building up OF
the strength of our nation, and q humble
worker, coming from post somewhat of
fatigue and anxiety, am thankful that my
stsps have been allowed to wander here
come upon q most interesting occasion,
for it is not merely khe trsnsplanting
ofthis mute memorial ct Thomas Jefferson s
life and death, bu. also the trsnsplsuting OF
the meaning Of his life, Of the lessons Of his
life and his services and what more proper
than that the tablet inspired By his own pen
with bis own essential modesty and yet his
own true sense of greatness. That tablet
commemorating the uSme Oh tho Statesmen
and patriot Who added the LouisiAna pur-
chase TO the Territories Of the United States
should find its final place in the State
carved from that Louisiana purchase. 1t is
peculiarly fitting that this tablet to the
memory Of Thomas jefferson should
| End its lasting home among
the people OF Missouri. As my
eloquent and valued friend, your honoret
Senator, in those tones Of eloqaenee which
bave attracted Sensies, and have so bound
the people of his State to hin Was telling

A Lawyers Walk in q Park Results Salts

CHICAGO, June 4-According to a story
told here this morning Lawyer Frank c.
Smith has at last been successful in discoy-
ering and digging up $4,000 worth Of dia-
moDds which had been burind in Lincoln
Park, this city, by a client, Andrew j. An
Jerson, who last November was sent to the
peniten,iary on a fifteen-yesr sentence for
burglars. The motive for hiding the Jewels
was fear on the part of Anderson that they
sould betray him should he fall into the
hands of officers. Anderson described to
his lawyer how he had lain down under
clupp of bushes, wrapped the diamonds in
a piece OF brown paper, dug hole with his
hands in the earth at the roots, covered the
gems up, and then half broke of three small
wigs SO that they hung down and pointed
directly to the spot where the package was
buried In spite of four failures, on the
part of the lawyer, Anderson persisted
in declaring that the diamonds we're there,
and he went down to Joliet main.

In the month Of June, 1894, L. U. Walker,
of Covington, KY, left Milwaukee for Wan

placed her jewelrY in small handbag that
was carelessly thrown on the seat beside her,
and when she was gathering up her be-
lopgings to leave the car the handbag
was missing. Anderson always maintained
that he did not steal it, but that one Of his
gang was in the same sleeper, saw Mrs
Walkers careless act, and taking advantage
Of her absence for q moment, 6lched The
