Before the lid was placed upon the

Wilson opened his eyet and his whole
frame shook with -tremors. He was
taken from the coffin by deputies and
carried up the steps OF the scaffold
for the purposes of hanging him

WASHINGTON LETTER


The District committee of the sen
ate acting under its instruction TO In
quire into The best method OF deyelop-
ing the park system of the District, is
proceeding in satisfactory manner TO
reach a decision of such authority as
TO command the widest possible ap.
proval. IL has put the investigation
upon an expert basis ut the outset.
The men chosen TO prepare the general
project are well known as competent
In their lines. Mr. Burnham achieved
n great success in the planning of the
Chicago exposition. while Mr.. Ohm
stead is recognized as worthy sue
cessor to his eminently distinguished
father. AS far as the plan of opera
lions has been outlined the scheme
will embrace the features of park inn
provement which have been suggested
by the board of trade in past reports
and recommendations. The opportuni-
ty is at hand for this expert commit
tee to prepare plan which will chal-
lenge the admiration Of the world with
out involving prohibtive expenditures.
If the inquiry proceeds to the end upon
the lines thus far laid down, ii will
meet the Eeartlest Endorsement of the
capital. and ii will deserve immediate
Endorsement by congress upon it's pres
entation to that body next winter.
United states Engineers Offices.
Because of the failure of congress to
pass a river and harbor bill at the SEES
sion just closed there has been wide
spread apprehension throughout the
country that il would become neces-
sary for the chief engineers to close up
most Of the district offices or at least
to materially reduce the force. Many
protests against such action have been
received from boards of trade and 9TH
er officials.
General Wilson has been looking
over the field and finds that the only
office which it will be necessary to alb.
solutely close is that at Oswego, n. Y,
where there is available a balance OF
only $1,000 for the entire district.
This district will be placed under the
control of the engineer in charge Of
the Buffalo district. but it is not eX
pected that any work will be done
there during the next year. In some
of the districts slight reduction in
force will be necessary, but in the ma
jority of cases General Wilson finds
that there will be enough money on
hand to keep the force fully employed

From all accounts they have a very in

presented them to the local collection,
wanted to have the bears march in
the inaugural parade and pay a tribute
to the president. but the officials Of the
pageant thought the president might
be just rs content to view the animals
at his leisure at later time.
The story of the cubs, as related by
Lulley himself, is that the donor and

female bear After a desperate strug-
gle the animal was killed. In the i'm

Letters of Robert Norris.

The library of congress has bought
collection of the private papers Of
Robert Morris, the financier of the
American Revolution, which are con
sidered of great value. from an his
torical viewpoint. The papers are
bound in leather and include volumes
of letter books containing copies Of
all letters written by him during his
official career, as well as a number Of
volumes of private letter books.
The books were purchased from the
late General John NJ. Read, some time
minister to Greece. During General
Reads lifetime access to the volumes
was denied the public, but now his
torians and others will be permitted
to consult the volumes. 1t is said
they contain many references to the

Committed
Suicide

Herman Schroeder, who lived in
Ontario township about sixte en-
miles northeast of this city, COM
mitted suicide by shooting him
self Wednesday night. It seems
that Schroeder has had consider
able trouble of late. Among other
things, chattel mortgage which
he claimed was forged, was fore
closed and all deceased's personal
property sold under the fore
closure proceedings. This left the
unfortunate man practically penni-
less. He was a German by birth,
having been born in Germany
about so years ago, and could not
read or write the English language.
At one time Schroeder was we'll
to-do merchant tailor in Philadel-
phia, but he lost nearly all the
means he had by drink, for which
reason his wife deserted him. and
now lives in Hamilton, New Jer-
sey. Schroeder had no children.
These troubles and the fact that
he was almost destitute, undoubt-
edly led to the act. Schroeder
came to this county two years ago
and took claim of 80 acres in the
township mentioned.

DWELLING BURNED.
Ed WaIthaI Residence Destroyed by
Fire sunday Morning

The Ed Walthall residence on
North @ street, near b avenue, owned
by John F. Lacey was almost wholly
destroyed by fire Sunday morning.
The fire was discovered about four
O'Clock by the night police officer, A.
Martin, who ran to the place and at
tempted to arouse some one within.
Mr.. and Mrs. WaIthall had gone to
the Schwartz place north of the city
Saturday evening and no one was at
home. The alarm was turned in as
soon as possible and the company
responded in short order but the
fire had too much start. The home
and the property is a total wreck.
The fire is supposed to have started
from defective fue from fire that
was started late Saturday evening.
A young lady, Miss Anna Buckler,
book keeper for the Hamilton &
Hamilton hardware store had rented
a room in the residence and had
taken possession during the after
noon, moving her personal effects to
the room during the day. A stove
had been set up late Saturday even
ing and a fire built. Miss Buckler
did not remain at the house but went
to the residence of a friend to spend
the night, not desiring to be alone in
the house. Considerable excitement
was occasioned for time as it was
thought that the young woman was
in the house and had been burned.
Subsequent search by the police Off
GERS revealed the fact that she was
alive and safe.
Mr.. Lacey carried s40O insurance
on the building and it is understood
that the Walthall household effects
were insured for about $500. Every
thing was a total loss and the amount
will far exceed the insurance.
The Duncan residence was dam
aged to quite an extent. TWAS bad
ly scorched on the south side next to
the burning building and the water
thrown on the roof found its way be-
meath the shingles and soaked the
ceiling plastering.
