Foul Play Suspected

Boston. August 3L-A special from
Cataumet, to the Herald says
1t Is rather unusual for four persons
in n family to meet death within a
period of one month Yet this occur
red in the case OF Mr.. and Mrs. Al
den p. Davis and their two daughters.
Mrs. Irving Gibbs and Mrs. Harry Cor
don. the latter Of Chicago, the deaths
taking place only a few weeks ago.
Some one started a rumor that these
persons or at least two OF them did
not die from natural causes. Finally
the district attorney ordered an inves-
tigation and Joseph whitney, of the
state police force was instructed TO con
duct an autopsy on tha bodies of Mrs
Gordon and Mrs. Gibbons. An under
taker exhumed the bodies yesterday
and an autopsy was held in the pres
ence OF Medical Examiner Faunco.
State Detective Whitney and Professor
Wood. Of Harvard college.
Whether the bodies Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Davis are TO be exhumed depends on
the result of the autopsy Yesterday.
The result Of the autopsy performed
will not be made known for several
days

The shamrocks' Grand Performance

New York, August 31.-The sixth trial
spin of the Shamrock IL today, thanks
to a stiff breeze from the southeast,
developed into a speed trial over q
measured course, the results Of which
are considered favorable by Sir Thomas
Upton and his friends.
Sir Thomas said yesterday That when
MI. Jameson arrived he would be In
absolute charge Of the yacht. He vas
on board the Shamrock today and in
charge every minute OF her trial, judg-
ting from the mastery way in which
she was handled. Instead or going out
side to sea, he had the yacht sent twice

with the result that by simple calcu-
lations it was found the yacht had
travelled over certain portions Of the
course at the rate of fourteen knots
an hour. Sir Thomas Upton. guaging
her speed by that Of the Erin. claims
half a knot more. Perhaps he was
right. At any rate the yacht could have
carried more sail than she did. Inc so
may be able later on to make good his
assertion.

THE PRoGREss OF THE DAVIS
MONUMENT.

Our esteemed and excellent conten-
porary, the Richmond Dispatch, kindly
copied the editorial OF the Messenger
upon a monument for President JEFF
ferson Davis. This caused Mrs. N. V.
Randolph, chairman OF the Central
committee, OF the United Daughters
Of the confederacy, to see it. She has
very kindly written to the Messenger
concerning the prospect of erecting the
proposed memorial in honor of the
great statesman and orator, the only
president the C~onfederacy had, as h
mentions. She says, and it is Just,
that lit is a disgrace to the south that
this has not been erected
The north has erected all
about of our enemies and invaders,
not many Of whom were fit to stand in
the presence Of Jefferson Davis. Mrs.
Randolph writes that ''it is useless TO
talk of the poverty of the south. we
owe it to ourselves that this monument
be erected. a to Mr..
Davis is a monument to every man
who bore arms in that cause." 1t is a
great, patriotic, appealing duty for each
soldier and all descendants, and all
who know Of the great, impcrishable
principles involved in the war of liber-
ty and Independence, for such it was
from start to Close, to contribute some
thinS-aS God has blessed pros
pered each-to h erection of a monu-
ment that shall stand through genera
tions to attest The grandeur and splen-
dor of the great appeal to arms.
The Confederate Veterans have
turned over $4,000 to the United
Daughters Of the Confederacy. Since
that time there have been added $16,-
900, the joint work of the c~onfederated
Southern Memorial Association-in all
$50, O00-drawing interest in banks.
Mrs. Randolph feels sure hat there
are $4,000 people who can and will give
81 each to the monument. An effort
to secure this is to be made. Stamped
envelopes will be sent asking for this
contribution. It really seems that it
would be an easy thing for this to be
done. If the patriotic women in every
village, town and city in the south
would make a personal effort it could
be easily accomplished we must be-
lieve. We quote farther from Mrs.
Randolph:
eff the school children would only
give n penny think how much that
would noun to. But let the sum
raised be what it will, we nave de-
termined hat in 1903, this long delayed
tribute to Mr.. Davis shall be completed.
We owe it to the man who represent
ing the Southern ~Confederacy, when
that cause failed, died a man without
a country. The press "a give us
wonderful assistance by keeping the
matter before the ODl
The duty is plain, the performance
should follow. A great people are sure
to appreciate their highest manhood
n Hottest exemplifications of patrio-
tism and self-sacriice.
'Tis the cause, not the fate of the
cause, that is glorious"
The newspapers can build that monu-
ment if they so elect. A monument
every way worthy of the great cause
of the nobl man who served as presi-
dent of the young but pu;ssant con-
when in chains. and great in this hour
of prosperity. must be erected, that af-
ter ages may read the inscriptions, and
catch inspiration and bravery and
buoyant hope from the records of the
past.

The time is now ripe for our lit

permanent improvements along
certain lines deemed necessary to
our progress and prosperity The
FIRST of the year is now at hand and
the coming year is bound to be one
fruitful to our progress or other

duties of incorporation as a village
We obligated ourselves to improve

attracting more attention than any
inland town in the Clearwater
basin; the season just past has been
one of great Advancement and ma
teiial progress to our little city.
Our population and business has
more than doubled in the past six
months, and from present indica-
tions this record will be eclipsed |
during the coming year. Property |
valuations have largely increased |
and call for better protection from
FIRE and other causes. Corporate
interests are seeking this location
and the business of this entire
prairie is rapidly centering at this
point. 1t is now the duty of all
good citizens to cooperate with the
city council as how best to raise
revenue to meet these obligations
which must be met in order to in
sure the greatest benefit to all citi-
zens and property within our cor I
porate limiss. There are many
ways to raise revenues to meet our
current expenses. The most ex-
pedient seems to be license tax
On all lines of business. Sufficient
revenue could thus be raised to
meet all monthly or quarterly ex-
pen ditures. such as grading streets,
cross walks, furnishing
