Washington, May 24.-At II o'clock
today the Rochambeau statue was un-
veiIed in the presence Of the French
mobiles, the foreign diplomats and all
of the high officials of the government
and members of congress, together
with an immense concourse of the mil
itary and civilians. In making the ad-
dress of welcome President Roosevelt
said in part:
I'VE prize this fresh proof of the
friendship of the French people, not
only because it is necessarily pleas
ing to us to have the friendship of a
nation so mighty in war and so mighty
in peace as the French nation has
shown itself to be, but because it is pc.
culiarly pleasant to feel that after a
century and a quarter we are glad that
the French republic should feel that
We have justified the sacrifice which
France made in our behalf"

differ in our views as to creeds, par
ties and doctrines, and We may follow
quite different kinds of business but
in all these differences, the true man
ly character of Christian gentleman
should be eXemplified; any line of call
ing or business that will not permit
us to live useful, honorable and In
dustrious lives, had best be given up.
All honorable and useful callings have
their place in Christian and civilized
nation. But any business or calling
that degrades and ruins our fellowmen,
should be Stunned by all men, and
above all should be prohibited by the
laws of our state and nation.
To legalize or license any business
that ruins more than it blesses should
not be tolerated. The great object
of civil government is to secure the
greatest good to the greatest number
of people and for these broad prin-
ciples all good men, of ell parties and
all creeds, should be unit: and we
believe from what we have known OF
Frederick Hipp. he was among our
best citizens and frowned upon any
effort to force evil upon his fellow
men.

Frederick Hipp gained the repu-
tion among his numerous guests ofpro-
viding clean and comfortable beds,
and the meals served were well sup
piled with the best eatables the mar
ket afforded and plenty of them. Hewa
himself a quiet and industrious man;
he would not entertain boisterous and
unruly guests, neither would he en-
ploy lazy and slovenly help, in con-
Quoting the work and business of his
hotel.

which Ferd Hipp was connected he
had lively interest and did what he
could to advance the interest of the

No one that thoroughly knew Fred

mean or unworthy deed. He was hon
est, truthful and reliable in all his
business. and daily intercourse with
men; and that after all is the great
test of citizenship. We ray greatly

of us will remember the Keefer fami-
ly, who lived in an humble cottage
home on North Market street, few
hundred yards north of the z. w.
Davis stone mansion; at that time that
locality was considered to be quite
out in the country, anton then being
but small village.
Frederick Hipp was an active and
much respected member of the First
Reformed church. in Canton; his daily
walk and conversation was that of a
Christian gentleman, and while he
was so long in the hotel business, he
did not as many do, prostitute his bus
mess to liquor selling; he kept an
orderly temperance house, and set the
example of being a temperance man
himself.
He held various offices of trust in his
church and was much loved by the
congregation; at his funeral the Rev.
Frederick Strassner preached the flu
neral sermon from this text: Mat

HEPLAYED HIS LIFE
ON MARROW STAGE

be foolhardy or venturesome, but he
ought to walk in the pathway of duty,
fearless of men or of devils. And whei,
he dies thus he dies with the approval
of God and with the applause of men.
This has been the experience of Mr..
Jacob. He did not court death. There
was no needless risl<ing of his life, but
as a foreman, an officer, he saw the
possibility of great crime, he saw a
convict desperate with loaded weap-
on firing upon his guards in order to
secure his own liberty and possibly
produce an insurrection. It meant
danger, but he did not hesitate. 1t
was duty against life. He rushed at
the outlaw with revolver staring
him in the face. The act cost him his
life but he did his duty. 1t was cour-
ageous deed. Though we lament its
fatal result, we admire him for 1t. 1t
was a sacrifice of life to conscientious
ness and loyalty. With fearful eyes
We applaud him for 1t and say, George
Jacob was.a brave man. We believe
he has the approval of God and that
his memory will be honorcd of men.
There is something noteworthy
and pathetic about the fact that he
closed his life SO near where he began
1t. For in the old residence yonder,
the foundation of which alone remains,
he began his career. Here on this
ground he spent his early childhood
and young manhood, and now after 40
years, life full of vicissitudes and
labors, his coffin stands not far from
where his cradle stood.
Mr.. Jacob was Cantonian all his
life time. Many of us have known him
from childhood. He always enjoyed a
good reputation. And the name he in
herited from honest and sturdy parents
had about it pleasing aroma in this
community. He was a quiet, conscien-
tlons, straightforward man. Those
with whom he served in various posi-
tons here will cheerfully bear this
witness of him. l would know of no
better epitaph for his tombstone than

A HARD TIME MAKING
M'KINLEY ENGRAVING
Postal Department Has Much Difficulty in Pro-
ducing Memorial Postal Cards--Two En-
cravings Unsatisfactory.

The postoftIce department has been
having a hard time with its new postal
card, on which the head of President
Mckinley constitutes the stamp. 1t
does not seem, says the New York
Post, as it would be difficult to make
a steel-eneraved portrait of the late
president, with his fairly regular pro-
file and characteristic eyebrows and
hair, satisfactory for this purpose; but
the bureau of engraving and printing
struggled with it in vain for some time.
The card would have been issued
months ago but for this detail.
The first portrait was a round. rather
snug-looking full face, which, strange
to say. Mr. Mckinley liked best him-
self. The second was profile, with
