Buried the Wreng Man.

A strange case of mistaken identi-
ty comes from Polk county. ". L.
Minner, prominsnt young man OF
that county, went to Arkansas in the
fall to accept position in the en-
gineering corps OF a railroad under
construction there. His parents
were notified the frat of the month
that he had died at Grow, Ark.
His remains were taken charge OF by
the Huntington Lodge, No. 81, I, 0.
0. f. of that state aud sent home
for burial, Obituary notices were
published in the Bolivar papers with
resolutions passed by the Odd Eel
lows lodge.
Although the 1. o. o. T. card
found in his pocket was the only
means of Identification of the dsceas
ed, it never occurred to any one tc
doubt that he was W. 7. Minner
bis parents ordered the body ship
ped home. At the funeral the coffir
vas opened and 200 people viewed
the remains, together with his par
ents, brohhers and sisters. Hil
mother kissed him and wept ovel
oim remarking: He looks 30 natur

lodge at an expense to the family o

aboht $50 and to the lodge about
$40.
After the funeral young man of
Bolivar wrote to MINERS brother in
Arkansas, who had been working
with him, stating that Minnel 5 body
had been shipped back to Polk
county. He received by return
mail reply from MINERS brother,
stating that he guessed not His
parents also received letter from
him saying they had buried the
wrong man and ". I. Minner ttll
lived Notwithstanding his funeral.
The young man supposed to be
dead, wrote back that he was alive
but his clothing had been stolen and
also his Odd Fellows card The
man who stole the clothes had died
suddenly and the local Odd Fellows
! lodge were naturally misled. The
identity of the stranger is unknown
and may never be ascertained

DIXIE'S DEAD.
The Nation to Care for the
Confederate Graves.

Washington, D. G, Dec IS
Practical application will follow the
prssidents declaration to the south
arm people yesterday that the time
has now come, in the evolution OF
sentiment and feeling, under the
,,ov;depce of God, when in the
spirit of fraternity we should share
Nth YOU 10 the care of the graves Of
the confederate soldiers"
The present system OF national
Cemeteries it is found upon inquiry
can be extended so as to embrace
care of the confederate graves with
comparative small expense Through
ont the south, in many places, the
confederate and union soldiers were
hurled in adjacent or neighboring
rlots The government has inclosed
the graves of the union soldiers and
beautifisd the ground. Superintend
ents are stationed at these ceme
teries and keep them in order. At
some of the national cemeteries the
axtension of the care will simply
mean an enlargement Of the present
grounds to include the plots of the
confederates. The same superln-
teudent can care for all. In other
localities the confederate graves are
not far from the national cemeteries,
The dead can be removed to the
present cemeteries or the plots can
be inclosed separately and cared for
by the superintendent in charge of
the union dead.
The execution of the presidents
suggestion will be not at all burden
some in financial sense. In it there
will be Enlargement of several OF the
present cemeteries to take in ada
cent plots, and there will be the es
tablishment of several national Gem
eteries. Headstones will be erected
at the confederate graves still re-
naming in national cemeteries.
The government now cares for the
graves OF 1926 soldiers in SO ma
tional cemeteries. The addition OF
small number of acres and the cs
tablishment of several national Gem
stsriss will be accomplished with an
increase in the army appropriation
bill SO small comparatively that it
will not be noticed.
