cred an eloquent tribute TO the memory

Later in the day, when the Masonic

them In honoring the memory of Wash

At Mount Vernon the procession was
formed in line at the mansion, where
President Mckinley and other distin-
guishcd guests joined II and moved
solemnly to the vault where first re-
posed the remains of Washington.
This procession was formed and moved
in the exact order and over the same
path which was followed at Washing
tons funeral,
Hating at the vault, the Third cav
airy band played a funeral dirge, and
Right Rev. A. NJ. Randolph, bishop of
the Southern Episcopal diocese Of Vir-
ginia, offered an invocation. This was
followed by an address by the grand
master of Masons in Colorado, and the
procession then moved on to the tomb
where the remains Of Washington now
| lie.
Here occurred the impressive cere-
monies of the Masonic ritual. The
grandmasters Of the thirteen original
states formed in line, facing the repre-
scntatives of the other jurisdiction. and

MAKES PLEA OF NOT GUILTY
Case Against Miss Horlockor Again
Continued.

Sonttnuous
Miss Viola Horlocker, charged with
he attempted murder Of Mrs. Anna
Morey in Hastings on the 10th of last
April, by means of poisoned bonbons,
appeared before Judge Beall in district
court long enough Monday morning
last TO have her case again continued
and give renewal of bond for future
appearance for trial
Miss Horlocker entered the court
room few minutes before the noon
hour accompanied by her brother-in-
law, George s. Hayes.
Her step was firm, her bearing erect
and her glance steady and cool, with
just touch of defiance in it as she
looked around the room at the attor-
neys and few spectators present. She
gave not the slightest sign Of mental
agitation, and her complexion and
general appearance would denote that
she was enjoying excellent health.
The information against her was
read, she pleaded mot guilty" and
by stipulation the case was continued.
Miss Horlocker arrived in Hastings
from Jacksonville, ILL.,, Sunday night,
and will probably return there.

MUST NOT USE COERCION
Otherwise a Combination to Strike 10
Legal.

At Trenton, n. j., an important de-
cision was rendered by Vice Chancellor
Reed in the case of the Cumberland
Glass Manufacturing company OF
Bridgton against the glass blowers
association Of the United States and
Canada, Dennis A. Hayes, president,
and others. The suit grew out OF the
glass blowers strike at Bridgton last
March, and which has since been amic-
ably settled. The Cumberland Glass
Manufacturing company sought to en-
join the defendants from the part they
were taking in the strike. The vice
chancellor, in his opinion, holds that
combination to strike or to induce
others to strike is made lawful under
New Jersey statute, providing that
the means used be those of persuasion
and not Of coercion.

Believe Confessor q Fake.

]. C. Mcbride, alias George Bullock,
the convict in the saltwater, Mimi,
penitentiary, says Table Rock dis
patch, is believed now to be one of the
star liars Of the century. He quite
evidently has heard of the murder of
Craig, at some time, and may have
known Of the circumstances, but he
gets things very badly mixed up in his
confession and few in that vicinity
now believe that he is the murderer of
Marshal Craig.

The war department has settled in
advance an interesting question as to
the application Of civil or military law
in the case Of soldier killed by two
sentinels of the Tenth cavalry while
trying to escape near La Platte, Neb.,
recently. The state authorities were
about to step in before the court
martial, when Attorney General Griggs
at the instance of the war department
telegraphed United States District
Attorney Summers at Omaha to appear
for the defense and place his services at
the disposal of General Merriam. This
means that the United States courts
will take juris iiction and the case can
not be tried by the state of Nebraska.

The attempt OF the Russian govern
ment to adopt In that country the Gre
gorian calendar. which is In use in
nearly all the rest OF the civilized
world. has failed. The reason given
is that It has been found impossible
to establish an agreement between the
dates Of religious festivals appearing
in both the Julian and the Gregorian
calendars. That Is to say, the people
want to keep on celebrating Christmas
and Easter and the other daye on ex-
actly the same dates as at present, and
will not be reconciled to change. Yet
precisely such change was made in
the English-speaking world century
anu half ago, when the calendar was
shifted twelve days. and what had been
Christmas became Twelfth-day. There
were popular protests against 1t. and
IN EnglanI not few riots. But the
authorities insisted upon the reform,
and It was effected. It seems strange
for the supposedly despotic Russian
government to show itself more sensi-
tive to popular prejudices than were
the British and American government,
