The premier and foreign minister, DR..
Deuntzer, replying to several speakers,
said Denmark acted in the best inter-
ests of the islanders in negotiating the
treaty. Denmark, in fact was merely
receiving compensation for her obli-
cations in connection with the islands.
The United States had acted in the
best faith and with fTiendIiness
throughout the negotiations. He felt
assured that the great republic could
and would give the islanders a better
position in the world than they had
enjoyed before.

The proposal for an appropriation was
passed.
In the Southampton town couucil-a mo-
ton 10 appropriate $1,000 for the purpose
of celebrating the kings coronation was
declared to be preposterous and illegal

had taken to beer making. and knowing
also that the gambling in horse racing
was the curse of the country.
The motion for an appropriation was
carried by a large majority.

MILITARY ACTIVE
At SHENANDOAH
Bedde|I's Funeral and Mid
night Scare Keeps Them
on the Go.
(By Associated Press.)

SHENANDOAH, PA, August Awhile
the situation in this region is normal, the
troops encamped here showed more activ
ity to-day than they have on any day
since they were ordered to Shenandoah.
This on the surface does not indicate any
thing, yet there was a feeling OF uneasiness
which caused the commanding officers tG
increase their vigilance and hold the SOL
aiers in a state of preparedness.
The greater part of this vigilance was
due to the fact that the funeral Of Joseph
Beddell. who died as a result Of Injuries
received in Wednesday nights riot, took
place to-day. There were many ruIaors
atioat that they would be attacked. These
stories reached brigade headquarters. and
General Goblin decided to take every pre-
caution possible to prevent any untoward
incidents while the funeral was being held
without too great a display of the mill
tary force. A platoon of the Governors
troop was stationed on one OF the towns
principal streets, near headquarters, and
one battalion OF infantry of the Twelfth
Regiment was held In readiness in camp
to march on short notice.
Provost Marshal Farquhar also kept a
uatchful eye on matters with a detail of
lren. great crowd lined the sidewalks
mine workers Nothing occurred to dis
turb the funeral, and after it was over
the platoon of cavalry was Withdrawn
from the town.
The Eighth Regiment had another call
to arms last night The picllets in the
vicinity of the stable saw a man stealth
lily approach the horses and he was COM
manded to stop. He probably did not see
the sentry, because the instant he heard
the soldiers command the prowler turn
cd and fed down the side of the hill
Three bullets were sent after him, but he
escaped. The sentry on the next post
also saw a man running in the darkness.
and he. too. fired at the fleeing figure.
The sound of the shooting aroused the
guard. and the bugle call to arms was
Immediately sounded. The whole regi-
ment was quickly in line, and Company II
was sent out to investigate. but the
mysterious person had disappeared. After
that the men were not again disturbed.
Rumors of q resumption of work in
this territory. are still in circulation here.
but there is nothing to indicate that these
reports have any foundation.

LEXINGTON, VA, August T.
Mr. VIM. Cook. aged thirty-eight years,
a highly respected citizen of Alone, Rocl.-
bridge county and son OF the late John
Cook. died at his home Thursday, at
ter a protracted Illness.
He had been to the best hospitals IN
the country and his final years We're
spent in great suffering. While super
intending some work on his farm, near
Alone vicinity, three years ago a saw
log rolled over him and crushed his arm.
and finally necessitated the removal of
the arm and portion of the shoulder.
From this accident dated his infirmities,
which affected his back and stomach.
For year past he has not been able
to partake OF any food through his mouth
and all nourshment was supplied to his
stomach through a tube and by means
of a funnel. without going down his
throat at all. His case excited wonder
ment among the medical fraternity in the
large city hospitals and has been watched
with great interest.
He is survived by his wife, who was
Miss Matte Alphin, daughter of the late
Lewis Alphin. and three children.
Mr. Cook was operated on in Richmond
some time ago. and the medical fra
ternity took much interest in it.
