Within twenty minutes after the death of
Gen. Grant, Karl Gerhardt, q Hartford sculp-
tor, who has been making a study of the
general, was summonedto the cottage at the
suggestion of DR.. Newman to make q plaster
mask of the dead mans face. He was highly
successful. Within half an noun after the
generals decease the waiting engine at the
mountain depot was on the way to Saratoga
to bring the undertaken, who placed the re-
mains on ice to await the arrival of a New
York undertaken.
THE PROPOSED AUTOPSY.
DR.. shrady remained here to-day in order
that Dir. Douglas and himself might, after
quiet had been restored in the household at
the cottage, converse with Col Fred Grant
on the subject of a postmortem examination
of the remains of his father. The physicians
therefore this evening repairedto the cottage
and there met the colonel with the formal
preference of a request that an autopsy
might be held. They stated that their pur-
pose was not in the least to confirm their
opinion OF the disease, for they had nc ali
times been united IN demonstrating the
case as one of cancer, hut the time had come
when the medical staff might step aside from
the patient. invite any other medical
or surgical autopsist to conduct the exami-
nation, which should speak for itself. This
both Doctors Douglas and Shrady urged as
far as professional and personal dignity
could permit; but Col Grant replied that
the entire family were SO thoroughly united
In their confidence in the diagnosis and treat
ment of the physicians that they bould not
conceive a necessity for an autopsy.
COINCIDENCE AND SYMPATHY
have been pouring in without intermission
on the wire. They come from everybody
and from everywhere. from Gladstone down
to the notwithstanding countryman. Every
style is represented, and organizations Of all
kinds. Among the signatures are many
names that once were famous, as well as
those which are now. All breathe
sympathy. and testify to the universal
appreciation Of the national loss. Many are
addressed TO Col. Fred Grant, but more than
t~hree-fourths to Mrs. Grant personally. A
guard from Wheeler Post No. OF, G. Al. r.,
of Saratoga, has mounted guard at the cot
tage tonight Tomorrow the family will be
overwhelmed with official Populations and
personal visitors, and the arrangements may
be concluded as to the funeral here and the
burial piaoe.

The intelligence of the death OF Gen.
Grant caused q universal feeling OF sorrow
in the various towns of Minnesota, Wtscon-
sin, lowe and Dakota, in common with the
country generally. PrOclamatiOns express
i've of the popular regret were issued by
Governors Hubbard, Rusk and Pierce, and in
the different cities bells were tOlled, build
ings draped in sable and flags halt-maSted.
Action has been or will be taken by the city
councils, members of the g. A. r. and other

national loss.
DAKOTA EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION.
Ameetiug Of the Dakota Press association,
now uisiting in Minneapolis, was held at IL
O'clock lass evening, when the following res
~Olurions were presented by a committee
appointed for the purpOSe:
Whereas, Our convention is startled by the
sad tiding that the lUng-suspended sword which
never misses its mark, has fallen, and that
Ulysses S. Grant is dead. We can but pause and
with bowed heads and heavy hearts bear our
glief in common with q mourning nation, in
testimony OF tho solemn d~tspensatlon Of
Almighty God. We, the members of the Dakota
Press association, therefore resolve,
First-That in his life and death as
citizen, soldier and stateaman, Gen. Grant was
a model for al coming ages, performing the OBJ
scure duties OF the common citizen, the heroic
deeds Of the soldier and the exalted labcrs OF
the chief MAGISTRATE Of the greatest nation on
the face of the globe, with a fidelity that en-
dedred him to all llDerty-lOVing people and Chal-
lenEed the admiration OF the nations Of the
world.
SccOnd-Thut as a soldier from Belmont to APP
pomattoX, from the command VI the company to
that OF the graudest army the world ever saw,
he was generous, brave, and always virtuOus.
As a citizen, from the lanyard TO the White
House, he was faithful to every obligation, and
true to his country, to himself, TO his God, and
to that democratic simplicity that should char
RCteriZe every American.
Third-That the matChIess patience and forth
tude displayed in the H~truggle that ended in
death, an admiring nation watched as it now
weeps at his bier Fourth-That through
the great heart is still and pulseless, the glory
of OILS deeds shall live while time lasts.
F~ifth-That in this, his only surrender, he
has simply scaled the heighths, and bivoucked
on the eternal camping grounds in the Elysian
fields beyond the shining stars.
S~iXti-That we record ouI most tender sympa-
thy for the stricken ones Of his own household.
God alone can fathom their devotion to one who
has made himself beloved by a nation, and adj
mired by a world.

John Rogers, who keeps general
store at Howden, Indiana, was staid
married man with two children, de-
voted wife and happy home, when,
about three weeks ago, Miss Emma
Smell, cousin of Mrs. Rogers. pretty
school teacher from the rural districts
of Delaware county, came to spend her
Summer vacation with them. Rogers
lost his head and heart to the fair
guest. The intimacy Of the two in a
short time became very marked. Mrs.
Rogers, unable to endure the situation
longer, on Tuesday ordered Miss Smell
to pack up her baggage and leave.
Rogers overheard the conversation, en-.
tered the room and struck his wife to
the foos, aud then, in company with
Miss Smell, left, going to his store, half
mile distant. The pair did not re-
turn until evening, when they found
the house deserted. Rogers, fearing
the worst, began to search, and found
his wife lying face downward in the
water trough back of the barn. To the
barn were found the bodies of the chill
dren lying side by side. aud each with
Q gaping wound in its head. A bloody
Ak lay beside them, telling the story of
the horrible tragedy. Mrs. Rogers had
evidently brooded over her troubles all
day. and finally, just before the time
for Rogers to return home, had taken
the children to the barn and murdered
them, and then deliberately lay down
in the water trough and ended her sor-
rows.

The Detroit Times suspended last
Thursday, and its death will be re-
GREETED by the many persons who were
readers of it. 1t had become the best
and most readable evening newspaper
in Detroit. During the three months
that Lloyd Brcezee published the
paper, he sunk some $4,000. The
Times was first started as n morning
paper, the first number being issued
December 4th, 1888. BY the time it
had been published eleven months, its
owners had lost some $4,000. They
then sold to Mr.. Breeze. 1t thus
appears that $4,000 has been sunk
on the paper. The Times as an even
ing paper was fast gaining self-sus-
tanning position, and it is believed if
Mr.. Brcczec's finances had been suffi.
cient to keep the paper running few
months more, that it would have be-
come a dividend paying paper. There
is a prospect of the Times being again

sister has just sent me crock of butterp
And, your honor, he went right on, saying
that Mrs Beekman had authorized such re-
lations, and that Mrs. Grandy was dear,
pure sister, and that there was no law"
She then went on to narrate the history Of
Annie, a Catholic girl, Who under the min
istration of Rev. Mr.. Schweinfurth, had be-
come the mother of twins. Mr.. Schwcin-
furth, in his fiat, soft voice Indignantly re-
piled that he never knew such a person.
"Oh, yes you do" replied Mrs. Wentworth,

you believe Mrs. Beekman to be Jesus

went on to narrate n system of religious
vileness worthy of the Oneida community.
