A BEAUTIFUL MEMORIAL.

A bill was introduced in the Legisla-
ture to incorporate the Olivia Raney
Public Library. 1t is to be established
by Mr.. Il. +. Raney in memory of his
wife.
1t is beautiful memorial. In her
young and unselfish life, as Miss Olivia
Cowper and Mrs. II. B. Raney, this
lovely lady gave the best talents with
which she was endowed to bless and
help others. Her musical talent, her
sweet sympathy, her helpfulness in all
things great and small, made her life
a benediction to all who came within
the sphere of her gracious influence.
Her death not only afflicted those who
were near to her, but brought loss to
the whole communicates church, So
ciety, benevolent associations and the
Confederate associations, for she was
first among those who honored the
wearer of the gray and she was promi-
nent in every movement in the city that
gave them glory or comfort.

whose actions smell sweet and blossom

DRETFUS'S GUILT NOT SHOWN.
The I'D" in the "Canaille'' Document Did
Not Refer TO Him.

Special Cdbh Drspdhch 10 THE Sun.
PARIS. May lG.-The Figaro this morning
continues its review Of the evidence given
in the Dreyfus case before the Court
Of Cessation. 1t points out that the
experts. NM. Colbert. Charavay and Pei
letter, to-day maintain that the bordcreau
was not written by Dreyfus. while VI. Bertil-
Ions view i, supported only by VI. Teysson-
niors, whose name has lately been stricken off
the list Of experts in handwriting by the Seine
Tribunal.
NJ. OrmescheviIls's investigation of the Drey-
fus affair has not strengthened the case against
the accused. Col. BoucheZ. in the course of the
Investigation. told Col. Picluart that no prog
ress was being made in the affair. but soon az
terward he announced that fresh evidence
was being found, this being a rough draft Of
tn" German letter and the "canallle" doc
ument. Col. Henry. upon being ordered to
collect a secret dossicr. effectively did the work
by supplying forged documents in the absence
Of genuine ones. Since NJ. Casimir- Perier's
deposition no doubt remains that the secret
dossier was shown to the Judges. the bearer
thereof being apparently Col. Picuuart himself.
The Figaro proceeds to analyzc the first
secret document. the 'canaiilc" letter, point
ing out that, though il was read in the Cham
Der Of Deputies BY NJ. Cavaignac ms conclusive
evidence of Drcyfus's guilt. to-day even Capt.
