Carl Griffith was arrested Thursday

ceedings were had compromise between
Grifhth's relatives and Mrs. Long was

LESSONS FROM HISTORY
Traced In an Address by John Day
Smith.

John Day Smith in a strong address
foreibly impressed the lessons to be
learned from the sacrifices of the heroes OF
the civil war and from the history of the
nation upon the minds Of those present.
He began with review Of the settlement
on TINS continent of those representing
hostile forces or influences-the puritans
and the cavaliers-of the union Of these
forces against the despotism of the old
world, and of the creation of new repub-

WAS OUT FOR BIG PROFIT
s. D. MAN WOULD DEAL IN CORN
Inquiries as to Checks Spoiled His
Game-HOw Chicago Looked
at 1t.

Chicago, July 31.-William Austin of
Hill City, S. D., tried to show his game to
twenty nine of the biggest commission
firms on the Board of Trade, and if they
hadn't guessed too quickly he would have
been at least $35, 900 to the good and ready
to come from Hill City to Chicago, where
his talents would have wider field. AS
it is, Mr.. Austin-or, If not he, then the
men who used his stationery and his
check book and who signed his name-is
candidate for the earnest consideration
of the government postoff1ce inspectors,
whose business is to discourage the use
of the mails for little schemes like his.
Hill City is a long way from the Board
of Trade, but that did not prevent Mr..
Austin from making up his mind last
Saturday that the price Of corn was going
to drop on Monday morning. He had a
little money in the bank at Omaha but he
needed that in his business, and still he
wanted big profits when the drop came,
with none Of the dangers Of losses If he
made mistake.
So he wrote letters to each Of the twen-
picked out, and perhaps to others who
have not yet told, ordering them to sell
for his account $4,000 bushels of December
corn at the opening of the market.
In each note he put his check for 81, 900
on the Nebraska National bank at Omaha
But he didn't say word in the letter
about the check, and, strange as 1t might
seem for SO businesslike a man, he had
neglected to get the checks certified.
If all the commission men had executed
the orders, Mr.. Austin would have been
short about 1,500,0 900 bushels, with q profit
to his credit of possibly $4,000. But they
didn't. Instead, they began to wire the
Omaha bank as to whether the checks
were good. One of the early inquiries
got the following answer:
William Austin has small account at
our bank, not sufficient to cover $1,000
check; have had nine similar inquiries al
ready this morning"
Then the commission men began to
compare notes. Before the opening OF the
exchange the sorry story of the attempted
raid was all over the floor, with the
nature Of the Omaha banks reply, and
there was, of course, not single one of
Mr.. Austin's orders executed Austin is
rated by Bradstreet's as worth from
$4,000 to $4,000, with an excellent record.
Perhaps somebody else used his name,''
suggested an official OF Bradstreet's. Such
things have happened before"
Its a pity he didn't make some
thing" said one Board Of Trade man. "a
fellow with his enterprise deserves more
tnan $o,OoO capital and Black Hills feed
store.'t
THAT Is the best example OF heads I
win and tails you lose that have heard
Of" said another.
The scheme Is not entirely new, but was
never tried on so big scale before. 1t is
not certain that it will make serious
trouble for Mr.. Austin, because in order
to find out whether the checks were good
or not they would have to be deposited
and allowed to go to protest, II they
weren't, and 1t Is not thought any of the
brokers will take this trouble An off,
cial postofice inquiry Is, however, almost
certain.

THE PRIVATE SOLDIER
Governor Van SAINT Pays Him 9
Glowing Tribute.

A4AO0bCs
Governor Van SAINT in a brief address
paid special tribute to the private SOL
der. He said in part:
More than two score years ago the shot was
fired at Fort Sumter that inaugurated the
war of the rebellion. The history of that
great struggle is fresh in our minds We
are permitted by kind providence to assist
in dedieating this monument. In perform
ing this act we not only honor our dead COM
rades, but honor ourselves. We follow GUS
tom as old as the earliest civilization. Be-
hold England! verify believe that her
greatness is in part due to the tribute she
pays to her brave defenders
We have honored our great leaders Wash
1ngton's monument in our capital city is
the highest of earth. nearly piercing the
skies. but 1t is no more lofty than his serv-
ices to his country and humanity
The tomb Of Grant on the banks of the
Hudson speaks nations gratitude for the
greatest military captain of this or any
other age.
But we have met to-day to honor the pri-
vate soldier Of '61-65, for without his sery-
ices and sacrifices our old commander would
have been helpless and the union lost. All
over the southland they sleep unwept, un-
sung, unknown. 1t is proper, then, that we
erect this monument as tribute of loving
people to their heroic defenders.
Their memories will survive fresh and
fadeless while the Grand Army of the Re-
public lives, but soon the last survivor will
go into camp on the other side. But fear
not. They have builded for themselves a
monument more enduring than this one that
we lovingly and tenderly dedicate this day,
or any other composed Of stone, or steel or
brass-and that is this great American union
| saved by the shedding of their blood on more
than a thousand battlefelds.
Soldiers and citizens, let us not only dedi-
cate this shaft, but here and now highly re-
solve that this union shall be immortal and

and had chartered a steamer to carry
coffee.
The Arbuckles had a three year contract
with the Brazil steamship pool, ending in
June, which provided that the rate for
coffee carried to New York should be thir-
ty-tive cents bag, but the pool allowed a
rebate based upon the amount OF coffee
shipped. It is expected that A. B. Cross
man Bro, who imported all the coffee
used by the Woolson Spice company, re-
ceived better rebate than that given to
the Arbuckles. and it looked to the Ar
buckles as If branch of the American
Sugar Refining company was receiving an
advantage in the importation Of coffee.

RECORD BREAKING MONTH
Lumber Shipments From Lake Ports
Reach High Point.

Special to The Journal.
Duluth, Minn., July 31.-This month is
the record breaker so far as lumber ship
ments by water are concerned, already
there having been more than 1000, 900
feet recorded as shipped from Duluth
alone, while Superior has sent out about
5000. 900 and Two Harbors 5000, 900 feet ad-
ditional. The largest prior month was
July last year, with 46.00o,O0O feet from
Duluth docks.
These large shipments will probably
continue for some time, as docks are full
and the mills are steadily adding to the
qauntity, while all their lumber for months
ahead Is sold. Freight rates are steady at
$3.50 and with little indication OF an early
change. Chartering is very free.
There is almost nothing but lumber and
ore now in the minds OF vessel men, the
grain trade having Stacked off to a mere
memory.

And now in closing, let us repeat the words

dedication Of the memorable battlefield OF
Gettysburg as the resting place Of the dead,
when, turning from the dead to the living,
he gave the text of liberty for all time when
he declared
1T is we'll for us to be here. dedicated
to the great task remaining before us, that
from these honored dead we take increased
devotion to the cause for which they here
gave the last full measure of devotion; that
we here highly resolve that the dead shall
not have died in vain; that the nation shall.
under God, have new birth of freedom, and
that the government of the people by the
people and for the people shall not perish

in the Wilderness and at Appomattox, will be
remembered as the greatest general Of the
age, and people will continue to sing "Sher-
mans March to the Sea" with the same vim
and patriotism that they now sing the "Star
Spangled Banner"
When war has behind 1t principle which
men are willing to die for because they con-
scientiously believe it to be right then the
cannon voices their convictions as one man ;
then the musket joins with the cannon; then
the women urge on to the field Of carnage
their husbands and lovers, themselves ready
to bind up the wounds of the wounded and
help bury the dead; then it is that the gods
join in the conflict; then it is that great
generals are made and poets write of war
and as the mighty agencies of nature some
times heave up into the light of day broad
and new continents, so does such a war
often establish great and new principles for
the benefit of the human race In its struggle
