noble. heroic and patriotic. Over their
graves We cherish no thought OF hate

banner of a united country. We joyfuily

yet the times are burdened with mo-
mentous Issues. History furnishes no
more portentious indications of . tre-

OF the century. As the revolving years
bring each its national days, every citi-

seeing that all has been done possible to

CONDITION CRITICAL.
3. r. Secrist Removed From the
Police Station to St. An.
thongs Hospital.
HIS BROTHERS AT HIS BEDSIDE,

He Denies to Them That He Meant to De-
stroy Himself, Claiming the Shooting
Was Acsidental-Able to Take IittI,
NourIshment-Ban Not Extracted Yet
The Woman In the Case.
B. F Secrist, still in a critical con-
dition from the bullet wound that he
inflicted in a sensational attempt at
suicide on a Burlington passenger
train, was removed last night to st.
Anthony's hospital. He is suffering
considerably aud is able to take but
little nourishment. The ball has not
yet been extracted.
Albert and W. p. Secrist, brothers of
the would-be suicide, were in the city
today from their home at Marion, Iowa.
They visited their brother at the hos
pital and ordered that he be given the
best of medical attention. Secrist told
them a different story than he related
after the shooting. claiming that he
was examining the revolver when it
accidentally discharged, but they are
satisfied that he meant to destroy
himself, but believe he was Temporal
rily insane when he committed the
act.
Albert Secrist, in discussing the
affair at police headquarters. said his
brother first met Miss Laura B. Hig-
gins, the woman in the case, at Mar
ion two years ago. 'She came from
her home at Piqua, Ohio, and worked
at my place, - said Mr.. Secrist. The
two became quite chummy, and were
together frequently until she left
Marion last January. Frank never
admitted the fact, but always sus-
pected they were engaged to be mar
ried.
Elopes With a Married Man.
Last July papers were received at
Marion from Piqua, stating that Miss
Higgins had eloped with married
man named Love.
Frank would not believe that she
was unfaithful to him, and appeared
to give no credence to the report in
the Piqua newspapers. He seldom
talked of the matter, but it was APP
parent to the folks at home that he
was worrying. He recently received
letter from Miss Higgins at Peoria,
in which she said she was going west
and would not see him again. Still
believing her true, last Monday he
hastily left home for Peoria to endeav-
or to locate her. But she was not
there
