scene enacted today.
The unwilling ceremony was impress
sively simple. Bishop Whitaker
opened with prayer and Major Wayne
president of the order of the Cincinatti
who formally presented the monument

ate address. Then came the unwilling

ClamOr was augmented by a national
salute of twenty-one guns by the ar

A military parade followed the speak
ing. Tonight there will be a grand din

MYSTERIOUS MILWAUKEE DEATH

Milwaukee, Wis, May 15.-The dead
body of N. b. Clark, of Grand Rapids,
Mich, member of the Michigan Bank
and Lumber Co., was found on one of
the residence streets along the Lake
shore this morning. There were two
bullet wounds and revolver was
found at his side.

evening he said he was going for a
walk. He was so years old.

A PREACHER TURNS HIeHWAYMAN.
South Carolina Clergyman and Three
Comrades Hold Up IA Farmer.

Intelligence has just been received at
Columbia S. c., of a most brutal high
way robbery near Cherokee. Spartanburg
county, that state. The fact that one of
the highwaymen was a negro Baptist
preacher makes it an affair of more than
usual interest.
While Mark Griffin, well-to-dO farmer
was returning home from Spartanburg,
he was suddenly set upon while crossing
a covered bridge over Tiger river and, Of
fering resistance, was promptly dubbed
into insensibility. The highwaymen, who,
it since developed, were led by the preach
er, George Nesbitt, then ransacked his
pockets and made away with their booty,
amounting to only about $35. A few hours
later Griffin was discovered by friends
and taken home, where he finally recoV-
cred consciousness and gave descriptions
which led to the arrest of three of the
| robbers.
Nesbitt is still at large. He had always
enjoyed a good reputation and had an en-
gagement to preach at Cowpens, near the
scene of the crime, Sunday.

MARK TWAIN is NOT IN STRAITS
Brother Living in Iowa Receives a
Letter From Him.

Orion Clemens of Keokuk, Iowa,
brother of Mark Twain, has received a
letter from the noted humorist, who is
temporarily sojurning at London, Eng
land, written in a most cheerful and en-
ccuraging style. The letter, while largely
of a personal nature and which Mr.. Glenn
ems refuses to make public, does not even
hint at anything like the desperate straits
and deep financial embarrassment men
toned in recent cablegrams from the
English capital. On the contrary, Mark
Twain wrote hopefully of the future and
of his family affairs. The brother here
says that Mark has been very much de-
pressed and exceedingly low spirited since
the death of favorite daughter and his
moroseness arising from grief he thinks,
has probably given rise to the stories sent
out about his personal and financial con-
dition.

Kernel Removed From a Little Girls
Nose After Starting to Grow.
A sprouting kernel of corn has been
removed from the uostril of the 2-year-
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Abe Woods,
living near Pocahontas, Iowa. Two
weeks ago the family was visiting in
Fonda, and while there the child in some
way got the kernel into its nostril. Later
it was noticed that the child experienced
some difficulty in breathing, which was
attributed to a bad cold. In few days
the nose became irritated and very pain
full, and the kernel was discovered. The
father with great difficulty extracted it.
1t had swollen until it filled the nostril
full, and when removed there was found
quite sprout protruding from it.
