HELD "MAD ANTHoNYs" BONES.
Kettle In Which His Body Was Re-

dueed to a Skeleton.
A unique and interesting relic.
though gruesome enough in its asso-
Citations, has been added to the Erie
Library museum. 1t Is the kettle In
which General Anthony Wayne's body
was reduced to a skeleton nearly a
century ago.
Through all the intervening years
it has been in the possession of de-
scendants Of the General, and through
one of them, Major o. w. Pollock, U.
s. A., was obtained for the museum.
It was in the winter of 1896, at Erie,
on his return from making treaty
with the Northwest Indians, that Gen.
eral Wayne was Frustrated with what
proved a fatal illness. His body was
buried within the walls of the old
blockhouse which guarded the en-
trance to Erie, where he died, at the
foot of the Flagstaff. There it re-
NAMED undisturbed until 1909, when,
at the request of daughter Of the
General, his nephew, Colonel Isaac
Wayne, came to Erie to remove the
bones to the East, to be buried with
those Of his family.
The journey to Erie was made in
a two-wheeled carriage. the only kind
of vehicle that the roads, or rather
tracks, of the country then per-
mitted.
On taking up the body 1t was found
to be in an almost perfect state of
preservation, and the kettle became
necessary to reduce the remains to
compass that would allow of their be-
ing carried on the sullIy.
Dr. ]. C. Wallace, a friend of the
Generals, superirtendej the operation
and the bones, after thelr arrival in
the East, were deposited in Radnor

So 1t was in this case.

81 was III tulS CdS0s
The apparent presence Of Frances
chief executive in Mentone accentu-
ated matters, and promised to bring
about speedy crisis.
Should the deep-laid plans of the
revolutionists meet with success over
the border would fash into existence
bright flame which, spreading
across the country, would blaze up
like a prairie fire until 1t reached
Paris; and that gay, thoughtless cap
ital, always eager for a change, would
make the heaven echo with shouts of
acclaim to the new emperor.
1t was critical hour for the life
of the French republic.
Jones had decided upon his course
of action, and, like a wise general,
meant to meet the tricky advance of
the enemy by a counter movement.
His first design was to gain an in
terview with the president.
Approaching the spot where the
president stood leaning upon a stone
balustrade and apparently admiring
the night panorama spread out be-
fore his eyes, Jones, speaking excel
lent French for a Yankee, suddenly
addressed the quiet gentleman as one
tourist sometimes does another in
his enthusiasm over a sublime spec
tacle.
The president courteously replied,
as a French gentleman always will,
nature having made them in such a
different mold from their English
neighbors across the channel.
The door was thus opened.
Jones stepped in.
Mr.. Prefident, you are in great
DANGER" was what he said, impress
sively.
The distinguished Frenchman
started when he heard these words
addressed to him by one he looked
upon as stranger.
What! you know of me?" he ex-
claimed.
Eyes, Your excellency, and there
are others present who have been
watching you all the evening, with
a very serious object in view"
Jones was delighted to discover
how calmly the president took his
news.
1t spoke well for his nerve.
OF course he was curious to know
who had recognized him, and why
they were so deeply interested in his
welfare.
Jones told of the waylaid train,
the capture Of a republican whose
name was power in France, the
possible desire to seize upon the
president If he could be located on
the Nice express, and last but not
least, the gathering Of the revolu.
tionary clans at Monte Carlo, and
their evident design to carry out
some desperate plan.
All of which, condensed into a com.
paratively few paragraphs, constituted
sensation that might have well
aroused alarm in the breast of the
bravest.
The president did not seem to be
shaken.
or course this steadiness delighted
the man who carried the news-if
there was one quality in the makeup
of humanity that he admired more
than another, it was the faculty
which so few men possess, of con-
trolling their emotions.
The Frenchman was q wonder in
his eyes, and Jones felt especially
proud to serve him.
Confidential relations seemed to
have been established between them,
as though the president had reccg-
nized in Jones one gifted with au-
thority to look after the peace of Eu-
rope, and particularly of France, with
power to balk any and all desperate
games put into circulation by such
trouble makers as the shrewd Prin-
cess Olgavitch and her allies.

Why II is Cool Near Trees.

1t is not shade alone that makes II
cooler under a tree in summer. The
GOODNESS of the tree itself helps, for
it's temperature is about As degrees
Fahrenheit at all times, as that Of
the human body is a fraction more
than SO degrees. So clump Of trees
cools the air as a piece Of ice cools
the water IN a pitcher.

CHAPTER XIII.

When Jones had to grapple with an
enraged bull, metaphorically speak
ing, 1t was his custom, and a most
excellent one, too, to seize the animal
by the horns, and thus have fair
chance to pit his strength against
the power of the beast.

General Molineux paid his sons wifes expenses all the while his son was in prison, and last week the general made a public statement about his daughter in-law in which he said
 sne Is as good and pure a woman as breathes."
 He said he had traced all the stories concerning her and found they were false.
 Late in the day Gen. E. Molineux said to the Associated Press that Mrs. Roland B. Molineux arrived at his house the night of Thursday. November 6, the day of the acquittal of her husband, leaving there the next morning. The general had gone to business earlier in the day and did not see her.
 'She left no word,'s he said, 'and that is the last we have seen or heard oi her."

 Roland B. Molineuxs counsel. G. G Battle said he knew nothing about Mrs Molineux's reason for going to Sioux Falls. Former Governor Black was in Troy, N r.. today. Mrs. Molineux's ab- sence from court during her husbands g last trial revived rumors of family dif- ferences, but she went to the Molineux residence in Brooklyn few hours after her husband was acquitted and remained until the next morning when she returned ot New York where she had been staying. She was there an hour or two and then disappeared. She was not seen in public with her husband last week.

was made to the workings of agreements in soft coal regions
 i To Invite Herman -Justl.
 This led to the announcement by Chairman Gray that the commission had decided to invite Herman Justi, commits sioner of the Illinois Coal Operators as- sociation to testify before the commis- sion The announcement was favorably received by each side, and the attorneys for the miners and operators made sug- gestions for additional witnesses. MT. Wilcox, general counsel for the Dela- ware and Hudson company, after con- ference with other attorneys, handed up a suggestion that such other witnesses, if any as the Illinois Coal Operators association may deem proper Tor the purpose of showing the effects Of the trade agreements with the United Mine Workers of America" be invited to at- tend.
 MT. Darrow, counsel for the miners, suggested these names: o. L. Garrison of St Louis, president of the Illinois Bituminous Coal association: J. Smith Talley of Terre Haute, president of the Indiana Bituminous Coal association; J. H. Winder, Columbus. ohio, manager of the Hooking Coal company; T. W. Davis, Saginaw, Mich, commissioner of the Michigan Coal Operators association.
 It is likely all the men whose names have been suggested as witnesses will be invited to come here.
 The investigation is dragging too slowly to suit the commissioners, and 1t Is probable that the commission will ask tomorrow that both sides agree upon some form for expedition.
 The lawyers for the Delaware. Lacka- wanna and Western or the Philadelphia and Reading company will next take Mir. Mitchell in hand unless the programme is changed.
 The attorneys for the non-union men presented their case to the commission tonight. They have asked the commits sion to take up the grievances of the non-union men growing out of the strike. and as the non-unionists are not a log ical party to the arbitration scheme. their attorneys have been requested to give reasons why the commissioners should take up their case. If 1t Is de- cided to hear them, 1t will inject an en- tirely new feature into the investigation, and one which was not expected at tho time President Roosevelt created the commission.
