Delegations from G. A. R. posts of the
county visited the court house and city hall
yesterday morning, to go over the building
with the county commissioners and to see
what room would be allotted them for their
war museum. The commission had decided to
give them room in the tower, but some
of the members did not think 1t suitable, and
took a trip to the unfinished fourth floor to
see what was lying idle. There is a senti-
ment among few Of the post members that
they should be allowed room to meet In.

A Mans CareIessness Results in His
Death.
Charles Mcconnell, twenty-five years of age,
residing with a brother-in-law at $40 Fourth
street south, took overdose of morphine
last evening, by mistake and died soon after
wards. Mcconnell, who had lived in the city
for about month, was a great sufferer from
neuralgia. To ease the pain he had been in
the habit of taking morphine pills. An attack
of neuralgia came on last evening, and Nc
Connell went to a neighboring drug store to
get some of the pills. The only form of
morphine to be had was the powder. McCon-
nell took the powder and went home. He was
unfamiliar with the amount to be taken, and
swallowed too much. He went to bed i'm
mediately, and at II o'clock was found dead.

Where the Ark Of Gopher Rested

At last we stood upon the
summit Of Ararat-but the sun
no longer pierced the white va
per;a fierce gale drove across
the forbidden region and whip
ped the eye straining to distin-
guish the limits of snow and
cioud. Vague forms hurried
past on the wings of the whirl-
wind; in place OF the landscape
of the land Of promise we search
ed dense banks of fog.
We were standing on the spot
where the Ark of Gopher rested,
where first the patriarch alight-
ed on the face of an earth re-
newed. Before him lay the val
leys of six hundred years of sor-
row; the airiest pinnicle sup.
ported him, a boundless hope
filed his eyes. The pulse Of life
beat strong and fresh around
him; the busy swarms thrilled
with sweet freedom, elect of all
living things. In the settling
H =
.exhalations stood the bow of
many colors, eternal token Of
Gods covenant with man.
The peaks which rose on the
distant borderland where silence
had first faltered into speech
were wrapped about the wreaths
of fancy, a palpable world of
cloud. Did we fix our feet upon
one of these solid landmarks to
wish the vague away, to see the
hard SUBMITS stark and naked
and all the floating realm OF
mystery flown! The truth is
firm and it is well to truth trans.
figured as the snow distils in
gend begins; but the legend it
self is the truth transfgured as
the suow distils into cloud. The
reality of life speaks in every
syllable of that solemn, stately
tale; divine hope bursting the
bonds Of matter TO compromise
with despair Ana the ancient
mountain summons the spirits
about him and wells a futile
frown as the rising sun illumines
she valleys Of Asia and the life
of man lies bare.-H. i. D.

Woman Killed and Mutilsted

CINCINNATI, Feb. 2.-A trage-
Idy after the manner Of Jack
the Ripper occurred on the
Alexandria road, in a lonely
part Of the kentucky highlands,
about q mile south Of Fort
Thomas; about midnight last
night. The victim was a wo-
man Her headless body was
found this morning terribly
mufilated. No one knows yet
either murderer or victim.
Bloodhounds are on the track
of the fiend tonight. All search
toda, for the head of the wo-
man has proven fruitless. It is
conjectured she is an abandoned
woman from Cincinnati, but
efforts to discover absentees in
that class have failed.
The only clew to the persons
in the tragedy is the fact that a

and a sergeant later heard the
voice Of a woman screaming
about midnight Otherwise tie
