cLENNON WILL GET 1T.
Little Doubt In Archblshop Kain's Mind
That tho Kansas City Bishop Will BE
Appointed His Coadjutor.

St. Louis, March s7.-Although q
coadjutor bishop for st. Louis has
not been technically appointed and
cannot be so appointed until April
6, there is little doubt in the mind of
Archbishop Kahn and the local Catho'
lie clergy that Bishop John J. Glen
non, of Kansas City, has been in
dorsed by the propaganda, which
practically assures him the appoint
ment. Archbishop Kahn takes the
view that Bishop Glennon was rec
commended for the position by the
propaganda Wednesday and the in
formation was given to the press in
Rome. However, no appointment is
official until it receives the sanction
Of the pope.

THE INQUEST CLOSED.
Investigation Throws Little Light
ON the Burdick Murder.
IT NAY BIZ an DISSOLVED MYSTERY.
Evidence Brought Out Shows Burdiok to
Have Besn . Loving Father and Indui-
gent Husband Inqairy 70 No Made
Into PenneIrs Death.

Buffalo, N. Y, March 27.-The In
quest into the death Of Edwin L
Burdick, who was murdered just a
month ago in his home on Ashland
avenue, ended yesterday afternoon
At the close OF the inquest Judge
Murphy announced that an Official
inquiry into the tragic death Of Ar.
thur Il. Pencil, who has figured SO
prominently in the Burdick inquest
will begin next Mondty. The Burdich
inquest has served to develop several
theories relative to the crime that
had been suggested many days ago,
but 1t would be hardly correct to say
that the investigation has added any.
thing tangible to any Of these thee.
ries. Aside from the failure OF the
authorities to secure evidence bear
ing directly upon the commission Of
the crime or to establish the iden-
tity Of the murderer, there is a feel
ing of satisfaction, that the name Of
Mr.. Burdick has been lifted from the
mire in which 1t was first dragged
and his character shown in its true
light. The evidence brought out un-
der the examination of witnesses by
District Attorney Coatsworth has
shown Burdick TO have been loving
father, always willing to sacrifice
bis own happiness and pride for the
sake Of his children; that he was the
victim of false friendship, broken
pledges and, in face Of 1t all, for
giving, indulgent husband.
The efforts Of the authorities to
fix the crime upon some one will not
end with the inquest. At the same
time there Is now little hope Of sue
cess in this undertaking, and the
murder probably will go down in
criminal history as one Of the great
unsolved mysteries.
Judge Murphy stated after court
adjourned yesterday afternoon that
his judgment in the case will not be
handed down until Monday or per-
haps later in the week. 1t Is pos
sible that he may issue warrants for
the arrest of John Doe" or Jane
Doe" II Judge Murphy sees fit to
take such action the district attor-
ney will be obliged to submit the
whole case to the grand jury.
Three new witnesses appeared on
the stand yesterday. They were Rev.
L. M. Powers, pastor of the Church
of the Messiah, where the Burdick
family and Mrs. Hull were regular
attendants, and Detectives Cornish
and Coughlin, who were the first po-
lice officials to arrive at the Burdick
home when the crime was discovered.
Mrs. Hull, Carol Burdick and Mag
gle Murray, the Burdick cook, were
recalled to straighten out, II possi-
BILE, conflicting testimony given by
them while on the witness stand.
The report Of City Chemist Hill
was read by the district attorney.
It stated that no poison was found
in the cocktail bottle or In the
stomach of the dead man, thus dis
posing OF the theory that Burdick
was poisoned, and also that there
were no bloodstains on the golf
stick taken from the. Burdick home
-. =s sa.rder, which eImnInates
the golf stick as the possible weapon
with which Burdick was killed.

JUDGE STONE
WINS HIS CASE,
In Cobb Superior Court
and is Vindi-
Gated.

The case of the County of Cobb VS.
Judge J. NJ. Store has been abandoned
by the county Heretofore the county
filed suit against Judge Stone in Cobb
Superior Court, alleging that he was
due the county about four thousand
dollars for fees which it was, claimed
that he had illegally collected while
Ordinary. Judge Stone commended
that he did not owe the county a dol
lar, and that every single item of his
charges was just and had been approved
by different Grand Juries of the coun-
ty, and they were fees he had earned.
A thorough examination of his vouch
ers showed that he did not owe the
county dollar. Each bill of cost pre-
scented for services to the county was
found to be correct and had the APP
proval of Grand Jury attached and
was paid in pursuance of law The
county abandoned the suit and gave
Judge Stone verdict Judge Stones
friends throughout the county claimed
all the while that this would be the re-
suit. The good name of one of the
purest and test men of this county has
at last been vindicated
Judge Stone was Ordinary twelve
years and proved himself worthy and
efficient. He is now of the dry goods
firm of Northcutt, Stone & Barnes, one
of the leading mercantile establish
ments in this city.

BERMUDA MAlDENS.
The Reason So Many of Them Decide
to Remain Unmarried.

In proportion to population '"cre are
more old maids in the Bcrmudas than
in any other part of the world. This
is true of all classes of the population,
but especially of the oldest and wealth
lest families, who have been connected
with the Islands ever since they were
colonized by the Virginia company in
1912.
Five out of six Of the daughters Of
the old planting families do not marry
in spite Of the fact that they are pret-
ty, with delicate rose flush type Of
beauty, extremely well bred and ac-
complished and Just as nice as girls
can possibly be. Their failure to mar
ry is Il standing source of wonder to
the whole of the West Indies.
An antiquated law is undoubtedly
responsible in part for this state Of
things. BY this law provision is made
for the daughters TO take shares of a
landed estate when their father dies,
but If one marries she loses her for
tune. 1t is taken away and shared
among the others. Under this law
many Il girl of the better class is
robbed of the dowry which is rightful-
ly hers. Sometimes she will not marry
her sweetheart at the cost of her for
tune; sometimes the mercenary swain
will not marry her if she has nothing
to bring him but herself.

TRUCK DRIVER AND HORSE.
How n Friendly Understanding De-
veIopcd Between Them.

i
The friendly relations which often
exist between truck drivers and their
| horses is shown in the story of Chief
| tain. one of the tales in Horses Nine, -
by Sewel Ford. Tim Doyle, the driv-
er, having been left alone in the world,
takes up lodgings in the stable. The
story runs thus: So for three years or
more Chieftam had always had n good
night pat on the flank from Tim, and
in the morning. after the currying and
rubbing. they had little friendly ban
ter in the way of love slaps from Tim
and good natured nosings from Chief
tain. Perhaps many of Tins conf
dences We're given half in jest, and per-
haps Chieftain sometimes thought that
Tim was bit slow in perception; but,
all in all, each understood the other
even better than either realized.
OF course Chieftain could not tell
Tim of all those vague longings which
had to do with new grass and springy
turf, nor could he know that Tim had
similar longings. These thoughts each
kept TO himself. But if Chieftain was
of Norman blood, horse whose noble
sires had ranged pasture and paddock
free from rein or trace, Tim was a
Doyle whose father and grandfather
had lived close TO the good green sod
and had done their toll in the open,
with the cool and calm of the country
to soothe and revive them.
OF such delights as these both Chief
tain and Tim had tasted scantily, hur-
riedly, in youth. and for them in the
lapses of the daily grind both yearned
each after his own fashion.
And. each in his way, Tim and Chief.
tain were philosophers. As the years
had come and gone, toll filed and
the character of the man
had ripened and mellowcd, the disposi
ton of the horse had settled and sweet
ened.
In his earlier days Tim had been
ready to smash wheel or lose one, TO
demand right of way with profane
JUNCTION and to back his word with
whip. fist or bale hook. But he had
learned to yield an inch on occasion
and TO use the soft word.
Chieftain, too, in his first years be-
tween the poles had sometimes been
impatient with the unframed mates
who from time to time joined the team.
He had taken part in name biting and
trace kicking, especially on days when
the loads were heavy and the flies
thick, conditions which try the best of
horse tempers. But he had steadied
down into Il pole horse who could set
an example that was worth more than
all the six foot lashes ever tied to
