the images are said to have been used by
the insurgent leaders to exact war reve-
nues from the people of the district by irn-
posing on their credulity. A Filipino ven
triloquist it is said, would apparently
cause the images to speak and order the
natives to give their money so the Amer
leans might be driven from the island. The
carvings appear to have been made within

AUCTION SALE OF SEATS
THE BOXES AND ONE HUNDRED
SEATS AT ENGLISH'S SOLD.
Great Interest Being Taken i'm the
Forthcoming Lecture by Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee.

An auction sale of boxes and seats for
Gen. Fitzhugh Lees lecture on THE United
States and Cuba in War and Peace" TO
be given at English's Opera House on the
evening of May 5. was held last night at
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry S.
New. This unique method of disposing of
seats proved a fattering success. There
was realized from the sale of the boxes and
the premiums on the seats sold in the body
of the house over $3.50. Since the profits to
be derived from the lecture will be turned
into the Boys Club fund a good many per-
sons interested in that charity were pres
ent at the auction sale.
Mr.. Harry c. Adams officiated as the auc-
tioneer and amid bursts of laughter he
succeeded in securing splendid prices for
the boxes and the one hundred choice seats
in the house. the sale being limited to that
number.
The boxes went to the following persons:
Mr.. Hugh j. MCGOWAN, one box, 800; Mrs.
Albert Lieber. one box, 500; Major Bates,
one box, $50; Mr.. John O.. Perrin, one box,
$50; Mr.. Mortimer lowering, one box, $50;
Capt. William English bid in his own priv
ate box at $25 and donated il for sale again,
and it was again bid in at the same figure.
Captain English also donated four seats in
the body of the house. Captain and Mrs.
English will be out of the city and will.
therefore, be unable to attend the lecture.
The sale of seats i'm the body of the house
being limited 10 one hundred. the two
choice seats were secured by Mr.. George
w. Bliss. who paid SIS for them. Mr.. Craw-
ford Fairbanks. of Terre Haute. paid $50
for two seats; Major Bates paid so for two
seats; Sam d. Miller secured two for S14;
Mrs. John 7. Brush two for Sl1, and DIR.
Henry Jameson four for $23. The following
gentlemen each secured two seats for SO:
Booth Harrington. w. G. BObbs. James w.
Riley. Jesse Fletcher. Newton w. Gilbert.
Henry W. Lawrence, s. j. Fletcher. r. ..
Hawkins and y. a. Young. In other in
stances three seats were sold for $40 and in
no instance were any seats sold for less
than 50 each.
While the auction sale was a success be-
yond expectations il must be understood
that so far only the boxes and one hundred
seats in the lower part of the house have
been sold. and when the seat sale opens at
the box office at the opera house persons
who desire to hear General Lees lecture
VIII be able TO secure good seats at the reg
ular price.
A pleasing incident that will be noticed
or the night of the lecture will be the in
PRODUCTION of General Lee, who served in
the Confederate army. by Major General
Lew Wallace, who was a Union COM
mander.

A Sad Vacation Time for the Parents
Anxious Letters Written to
Points an the West.

Patrclman John T. Green was given his
annual vacation this week. and he has
passed the days in a very unusual quest.
He has found that his son. Orion w. Green,
was killed at louisville. this State. on the
night OF June u. 1901. and that his body lies
unidentified in the potter's field in lions
ville's little cemetery. Mr.. Green spent
his vacation week in search of a lost son.
and the sad story has hen given him.
Young Green left his home. on Barth ave
nue., on the afternoon of June u, 1901. bound
for Oklahoma. He left here on a Big Four
train, and was killed at the little town of
ZionsviIle. The remains. unidentified. were
taken 10 the morgue, in Undertaken Mills's
establishment. and were viewed by hun
dreds OF the curious in the village. but none
knew him. Undertaken Mills had the re-
mains photographed and then buried in a
pine box in the potter's field. He also pre-
served the clothing of the dead boy.
Mr.. Green and his family read OF the
death OF an unknown young man at lions
Vile, but they did not think it their son
and brother. The incident was passed
without further thought. Time passed. and
the Greens waited for a letter from the
absent one. Months came and went. and
no letter arrived. Last March Mr.. Green
began TO write letters 10 Western author
tiles In the hope of locating his boy. never
dreaming that the lad was sleeping in a
pOtter's field so close To home.
BY some peculiar incident Mr.. Green
learned again Of the unidentified body al
Zionsville. and he secured "A description of
the dead person. II answered the desCrip-
ton OF his son. Yesterday Mr.. and Mrs.
Green went To townsville. and there saw
the photograph. that told them that their
son had been dead these many months.
They also identified the clothing that had
been preserved 10y the undertaken. II was
a sad revelation 10 them.
