BUFFALO,, March 21.-Lester 7. Halli-
day died to-day, and the police are puz-
zled to know whether to believe his ante
norton statement or to think he committed
suicide. With his dying breath Halliday
reiterated the story of highwayman's as
sault, but the bullet that pierced his lung
did not perforate his coat or breast. The
shot was fired close to the body. and the
revolver was found where i had been flung
from the bridge, all tending to confirm the
suicide theory rather than that of rob-
berry. The police have made two arrests.
The suspects are Lillian Preston and Cal
vim Baker the former Halliday's sweet
heart and the latter his rival The woman
accuses Baker OF threatening Halliday's
life, though Baker does not answer the de-
scription Halliday gave of his assailant.

Ingerso1rs Best story.

One of the most substantial organiza-
tions of newspaper writer's in this country
is the Chicago Press Club. Its. splendid en-
tertainment of newspaper visitors to the
worlds fair will not soon be forgotten. 1t
accepts no favors from individuals. although
they are frequently offered by thoughtless
persons who hope thereby to gain the favor
of the press. Every year for several years
past it has engaged Robert G. IngersoI to
lecture for it's benefit, and on those occa-
sions the vast Auditorium of that city is
crowded to it's capacity. Previous to his
lecture there. a few weeks ago, a party of
newspaper. men were awaiting his arrival
at the Grand Pacific Hotel, where he al
ways stops when he is in Chicago, and they
were beguiling the time by relating stories
they had heard of which the Colonel was
the central figure. Each man would claim

gets a new trial. Pancoast robbed a Me-
dina Ohio bank of several thousand dol

and thence to Minneapolis. where he
changed his name to Myron r. Kent. There
he married Miss Julia Holmes, a young
lady in the first circles, and in the fall
of 1892, moved to a farm near Mandan. In
March, 1893, Mrs. Kent was murdered and
Kent disappeared. a hired man named
Sorabeski was arrested ard confessed that
he killed Mrs. Kent for 81, 800 which Kent
promised to give him.. Kent was arrested

President Cleveland's lot, unless the
fates intervene, to answer this letter.
The boy is very tall for his age,
standing about five feet eight, and
promising to grow into an unusually
tall man. He is self-possessed and
courteous, and has displayed studious
traits which are regarded as marvel
lous by his instructors at the Cutler
school, in East Fiftieth street, where
he is the prize scholar. He not only
speaks French and German, but he
can converse in all the patois of those
languages. He also knows something
of Italian, and is proficient in Latin.
His school companions have made
him editor-in-chief of the school paper,
and while he has four associate editors
on his staff, the bulk of the work
falls upon him. He takes a deep inter-
est In military matters, and on one Of
the upper floors of his home has an
army of 5000 lead soldiers, which are
put through all manner of intricate
evolutions.
Col Grant modestly declined to talk
about the boy, but asked the writer
to see his school instructors, saying
at the time: 1.-THE boy has exceeded
all my expectations. In fact, l never
hoped that member of my individual
family would be SO clever" Col. Grant
is an abnormally modest man. and
delicately keeps in the background
those qualities and abilities which have
won him the respect and esteem CT
countless friends.
AT the school the boy attends he
is reckoned as it's best mathematician
He has a record of securing S99 and
some fractional marks out of pos
sible 800 for nine tweeks' work, a
standing which school children car
readily appreciate.

given her education, and today she
is linguist of considerable skill and
an artist of no small ability. She has
not dabbled in art like the average
girl, but has made a serious study of
it, and has done portrait work in oils
which has commanded the attention
of connoisseurs.

holiday has been begun, and in the
near future, when the cumbersome
machinery of national legislation has
been well oiled by the patriotism of
the country, the holiday will become
fact and stand as a lasting monu-
ment to the greatness of the man.
Gen. Grant, his wife and sons and
daughters have been written about
time after time, and every one is
familiar with them, but little or
nothing has been said about the
younger Grants, the grandchildren,
who are now growing into manhood
and womanhood, and upon whose
heads will rest the responsibility of
carrying the name down to posterity.
These grandchildren form peculi-
arly interesting group, and at this
time of the anniversary of Gen.
Grants birthday are particular sub
jects Of interest to the American
people. There are twelve grand
children in all, some Of them in Eng
land, others in the far West, and

thoughts have gone up to the man
whose memory is SO lovingly cherish

Through the courtesy of Col. Fred

general, and the present head Of the
family, portraits of eleven Of the
grandchildren were obtained. The
missing portrait is that of the young

child whose portrait is missing.
The portrait of Miss Nellie Grant, the

nine years ago. This little girl was
named after two aunts, Mrs. Sartoris
on her fathers side and sister OF

already be seen urging him to keep in up

THE SCHAFER SHOOTING,

len and Refuses to Answer
Any Questions.

Mrs. Mary Schafer, who was shot three
times by her aged husband at 1921 Larkin
street on Wednesday night, is still alive,
although the physicians say that she can
not possibly recover. They say that
either of the two wounds would prove
fatal.
Yesterday morning it was decided by
the police to get her to make proper ante
mortem statement. This was accordingly
done in the presence of Officer Haneman
and DR.. Helms and it was Transcribed and
signed by her and duly witnessed. It is
practically the same as was published in
The CALL yesterday morning.
She is perfectly conscious and calmly
waits death. She made her will yester-
day morning and twice during the day was
visited by clergyman. Last night she
asked that DR.. j. Soboslay the physician
OF Foresters' lodge OF which she is
member, should be sent for, and when he
called she gave him instructions about the
disposition of some papers, which she had
locked up in bureau drawer in her room
at 1921 Larkin street.

from her husbands unfeunded jealousy
than from the. pain of her wounds. For
the past eight weeks he had been crazy

ing intolerakle. He did not threaten her
with violence till Tuesday, when he told
her he would like to cut her heart out.
Then when he got the letter on Wednesday
from Robert Quito telling him that his
wife was a good woman the climax came,
as he charged her with writing the letter
Woman-like, she freely forgives him for
what he has done.
Several ladies who lived in the same
house with the Schafers called to see her
at the hospital yesterday. They said they
never heard the couple quarrel and that to
all appearance they lived happily to-
gether. They spoke highly of Mrs. Schafer
whom they all liked and respected.
Schafer has meantime been charged with
assault to murder. He continues sullen
and morsse and positively refuses to
answer any questions as to what prompted
him to commit the deed. When spoken
to his language is more forcible than
polite.
Two men called upon him Yesterday
afternoon to arrange with him for trans
fer of his saloon on the corner of Clay and
Drumm streets.
