In Io04, about seven years afterward, she
was crowned Empress of France by Pope
Plus TX. This was Josephine, the beautiful
but unhappy wife of Napoleon, and Empress
of France. The people of Martinique are
very proud of the fact that their island has
given birth to an Empress, and at Fort de
France, near the site of her birth place, they
have erecied beautiful statue of white
marble to her memory. Many OF the peo.
pie who visit this island mistake the statue
of the Virgin on the bluff at ST. Pierre for
the statue of Josephine. The statue Of the
Virgin, which stands on the bluff ST. St.
Pierre, was erected nearly two hundred
years ago as an off~riDg to the Virgin and
patron saint OF s.. Pierre to secure pro.
lection against the forages of piratas.

Lowered Again.

The state yearly record was again
lowered at Emporia yesterday by Patsey
Curtis, Abilene's fast flyer, who made a
mile in the remarkable time of 2:524
Mr.. Curtis may well be proud of his
pet who has put down the time on three
occasions, the last being nearly twenty
seconds faster than the state record of
one year ago. Abilene's wonderful
track on which the colt was trained
undoubtedly had its influence in giving
the fast gait.

Another new shipment of new styles
in hats on the road for l.. Ii. Faulkner
s. Co. 1t is truly wonderful to see the
amount of new hats they are selling
this fall. 1t seems as though every
body realized that the only place to buy
a hat was at their store, for notwith-
standing the tremendous stock they got
in a short time ago, they have been
obliged already to order again.

They Meet on the Street and Conn

The cigar store next door to the
Nadeau House was the secene yesterday
evening OF lively meeting between two
well.known custodians of the law.
Detective Metzler was standing talking
to Len Harris, when in came Detective
A. B. Lawson. There has been a break
of friendship for some time past between
the two officers, and when Lawson
walked up to Metzler and said, care you
heeled." Everyone got on the alert, for
it looked as if some shooting were about
to take place. Lawson, it is said, had
his hand on his hip as he asked the
question, and Metzler answered, Eyes, l
am.o
Lawson came up closer, and then, as
quick as a flash, Metzler struck out and
hit him. Len Harris and number OF
others present at once sprang in between
the two men and separated them, for
had thew not done go there is little doubt
that in the course of few seconds pistol
bullets would have been whizzing about.
Mr.. Metzler himself said that that was
how he was figuring, and added, that if
Lawson had drawn his pistol he would
have shot him down, for Metzler also
had "barker" by his side. The affair
ended by detective Lawson going away
and leaving his opponent the master OF
the situation.
The origin of the dispute dates back to
the time of the last race meeting here.
Mr.. Metzler stated that on that occasion
he had got employment for thirteen OF
the policemen who had recently been let
out of the force, and that they we're to be
paid $3.50 for patrol and $4 for mounted
work as long as the races lasted. Then.
Mr.. Metzler gays, detective Lawson Of
fered to supply the Directors of the Asso'
citation with men for one-half of those
figures, and on this not being accepted,
he offered them for 81 day each, and
finally for nothing All of his offers,
however, were declined, and thus the

A joint committee of the members of
the different posts of the G.. A. r. in this
city assembled yesterday afternoon in
the N. G. @. headquarters in the Bryson-
Bonebrake Block, to make arrangements

Lynn.
Lyon Camp No. 1-Mr. Cooling.
Commander j. L. Skinner was called
to the chair, and the proceedings were.
opened with the reading. of a protest
against the proposed parade of the Wheel
men on Memorial Day, and it was re-
solved that a request be sent to them
asking them not to carry out their street
exercises, inasmuch as it would be hardly
in keeping with the day.
Discussion then followed as to the pro-
gramme for the day, and on motion of
Comrade Case it was finally decided to
observe it as follows: The members of
the different posts to assemble at their
respective headquarters and decorate the
graves at the different cemeteries in the
morning. In the afternoon all of the
posts to assemble at the Courthouse or
some other central point, and from there,
preceded by drum corps, to march with
colors draped and all the other trappings
OF woe, to the hall, where the exercises
are to be held.
Comrade Butler then moved the ap-
pointment of a committee of one from
each Post on programme and the order
of exercises, and the following comrades
were appointed by the chair: Bartlett
Post, Butler; Stanton Post, Bissell;
Gelcich Post, Hamilton; Logan Post,
Tarble; Lyon Camp, Gooding.
The selection of the orator of the day
was the next work done, and resulted in
the appointment of General Rollins, of
Logan Post.
A committee, consisting of Comrades
Kutz, Thomas, Murray, Mondell and
Medler, was next appointed to secure the
urum corps.
1t was then decided to request the
Mayor to ask the citizens to place all
flags at half mast on the day of the ex-
ercises.
By motion, it was decided to ask Com
mander George E. Gard to be present
as president of the day and manager of
the parade.
Adjournment was then taken until
Wednesday next at P. M. at the N. G..
@. headquarters.
