A eNrsY FUNERAL.
Fetish Customs Observed in Burial o,
Child


Council Bluffs, Aug. IA family of
gypsies from the south Of Turkey. near
the Arabian border, camped by the
roadside a few miles north of Council
Bluffs Sunday. While playing about the
roaring campfire an infant fell into the
e!aze and was frightfully burned. His
flesh was literally cooked all over his
tody when he was pulled out of the fire
by his father.
The suffering child was brought, stark
naked. to Council Bluffs, the outfit ar
irving here in the evening. The doctor
saw no hope for the little patients re-
coyery, but he ordered its removal to st.
Bernard's hospital, where the child died.
Burial was made at the county's ex-
pense from CRAFTS morgue. Neither the
hospital attendants nor the authorities
could learn the name of the family on
account of their inability to speak
English or any other language than
their own tongue
Attic there were no burial cere-
monies, fetish customs prevailed in ar
ranging the body for interment A 25-
cent piece vas placed in the right hand

child's breast and his head and upper
part of the badly was packed in the cas-
lset with pears, peaches. walnuts, Pc
cans. cookies and ginger snaps and

the feet and cluster of flaming asters
laid upon the body.
The sorrowing gypsies left for the
west last evening Immediately after the
remains of the child were placed beneath,

administrators, by orders from the
court, have had their bills and fees al
lowed, and the same have been paid; in
fact, all but a few thousand dollars of

HAS a CUBAN WIFE.
Iowa Boy WEEDS Daughter Of Cuban
Planter.

Fort Dodge, Aug. 14.-There was a
surprise at the home of Otto Ottosen
on Sunday morning; a surprise as joyful
as 1t was unexpected. The surprise con-
sisted partly In the arrival of Mrs. Otto
sens cousin, Oliver Hill, but even more
so in the arrival with Mr.. Hill OF a
charming lady, who spoke in the soft
cadence of old Madrid and whom her
husband introduced as the wife whom
he had won for his own in the sunny
land of Cuba. Mr.. and Mrs. Hill are
even now on their wedding trip, and
were on their way to Mr.. Williams old
home in Williams when they stopped in
the city to visit for a few hours with Mr..
Hits sister, Mrs Ottosen. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hill remained for few hours only,
and left on the afternoon train for
Williams.
Mr.. Hill is a product of the new order
of things in Cuba, and an example of
the enterprising race of young America
which is bringing new life and new en-
Sergy into that long slumbering land.
He is graduate of the University of
Minnesota, and when the war broke out
he raised company of volunteers for
active service, only to find that the
government could not accept the prof
sfered services in that the militia were
called out first. Undaunted, Mr.. Hill
with few companions filed with the
war fever. left for the south and were
among the number who smuggled their
way across the Spanish lines and be-
came member Of Gomez forces, serv-
ing until the end Of the war.
After the war he, with few other
young Americans, rented sugar plan
tation and began operations on this.
They soon organized an investment
company, Of which Mr.. Hill is now man
ager and which has been instrumental
in placing a number of emigrants on
Cuban soil. 1t was while engaged in
this business that Mr. Hill met his lD-es-
ent wife, who was the daughter of a
neighboring planter, and the story of
his marriage furnishes happy culmina-
ton to his good fortune thus far.

LIGHTNING REEVES DEAD.
Electric Bolt Strikes Coffin and Child
Returns "a lite


Larned. Kas, Aug. IA bolt of light.
ming saved a child from premature bur-
ial at Hanston, twenty miles from this
city.
The 5-year-old daughter of Samuel
McPreaz, rancher, apparently died on
Saturday morning. Funeral services
We're arranged, the body prepared for
burial, and no one noticed sign of life
remaining in the little body.
Monday the funeral services were held
and the procession started to the Gene
terry. A storm was gathering at the
time On the way to tie cemetery a
bolt of lightning struck the hearse, burst
open the metallic coffin in which the
body was incased. knocked down both
horses and stunned the drivey When
the frightened mourners reached the
hearse the little girl wac sitting up cry
ing for her mother.
For few moments the persons who
Witnessed the occurrence were to fright
ened to move, but finally the little girl
was taken up and driven back to the
house as fast as possible. Her parents
believe the bolt was sent as a miracle
and the people of the vicinity speak in
whispers of it.
Physicians declare the little girl was
in cataleptic condition and the shock
revived her, but many residents believe
she was dead and came back to life.
kilograms from Hanston last night
say she is recovered and feels no i'll eff
fects from being incased in the coffin
for twenty-four hours.
The lightning destroyed one side of the
hearse and melted a portion of the cof-
fin.
Persons living in the vicinity of Hans
ton, who We're in the funeral procession
tell many strange stories in connection
with the occurrence. Some of them say
that just prior to the flash of lightning
peculiarly soft. mellow light appeared
in the sky, which was so pronounced in
it's difference from sunlight as to attract
attention and occasion comment, and
that while the peculiar atmospheric con-
ditions We're being discussed the clap of
thunder and the flash of lightning rivet-
ed their attention upon the strange
scene which followed.
1t is also said that the lightning. after
passing thru the metallic coffin, passed
along the running gear of the hearse and
burned the ends off the leather traces
SO that when the horses struggled to
their feet they were unhitched from the
vehicle that contained the broken coffin
and the resnscitated child.
What is thought to be one of the
strangest features of the occurrence,
and which strengthens the belief of
those who contend that 1t was a mani
festation Of the divine power, is that
nobody was killed or even seriously hurt
by the lightning.
