SCENE OF MURDER LOCATED.
Two Women and One Man Now Fig
ure in Mysterious Case at
kOkOmO, Ind.

kokomo, Ind, May 16.-The precise
spot of the Yeager murder was found
Friday evening, and shifts the scene
of the tragedy six miles south of Hem
lock, on the county line road. A pool
of dried blood and some fragments of
glass We're found at the roadside.
Frank Burns, Oscar and Evans Pick
ering and Fred Johnson, who live
near where the blood was found, tes-
titled that they saw Yeager at one
o'clock. He passed their homes with
a strange woman in the buggy and
another buggy containing a man and
woman followed. After the buggies
had gone a few rods a pistol shot was
heard. Near this point an hour later,
Fred Johnson passed the Yeager
buggy. in which Yeager sat alone,
dead, though witness did not know
he saw a corpse. Yeager's feet were
wedged under the foot rests and his
head was between the buggy bows to
keep the body from falling. The Off
GERS are busy, and more arrests may
be made soon. The testimony at the
inquest established the innocence of
Logan Ingeles and the Eads boys, who
will be released.

TREES THAT CITY LIFE SUITS.
The AiIanthus Grows Best and the
Elms Do Well Under Adverse
Conditions.

A florists club in Connecticut has
been making an investigation to find
out what trees are best suited to
planting in city streets, and how
they should be set out to withstand
best the unnatural conditions under
which they grow, says the New FORK
Sun.
The best tree for city life, it seems,
is the ailanthus. 1t is capable of
withstanding almost any possible
conditions, such as smoke, dry soil
and scanty nourishment, and it is
free from insects. Other trees SIM
ilarly constituted are the cotton
wood, white poplar and some forms
of willow. Then come the European
linden and the English elm, both of
which are tougher than the Amer
lean species.
For the suburban and semi-urban
parts of a city the best all around
tree is the American elm. 1t gives
high and not too dense shade, it
grows rapidly, and makes a beautiful
leafy arch over a street. But it has
the disadvantage of putting out it's
leaves very late, shedding them con-
tinually, and, like the European elm,
it has a persistent and dangerous en-
envy in the elm tree beetle.
For the most open parts of a city
the red, scarlet, black and pin oaks,
the horse chestnuts, blackberry, silver
n red naples and black walnut are
recommended. The rock maple
doesn't get along at all. It is the
first to succumb to city conditions,
and it it grows it has many disadvan-
tages.
hi best plan to adopt in city tree
planting, the Investigators say, is to
set out trees which will attain a
large size if left to grow, and to
keep them in bounds by severe prun-
ing.

Fret not myself because of things"

care not about it,

in London for $4,000. The owner had
paid 81, 100 for it in 1899.

The oldest Greek papyrus which DR..
Borchardt has discovered in Egypt
dates well back in the fourth century

still living when it was written, and
the great A~lexandrian library had not
yet been founded. 1t is, therefore, by
a long time, the Oldest Greek book in
the world.
One of the peculiarities of Tolstoi
is that he always wears boots of his
own making, and they are the admira-
ton of the shoemaker who taught him
the trade. But the latter was certain
that the count would starve did he
endeavor to earn a living by boot
manufacturing, as the work put into
each pair was too excellent and slow
to prove profitable. Some time ago
Count Tolstoi tried to persuade two
of his disciples, young men of educa-
ton and culture, to turn shoemakers,
but they declined.
John G. Whittier, the Quaker poet,
once in describing the usages of the
Quakers in regard to speaking in
meeting" said that sometimes the
voluntary remarks were not quite to
the edification of the meeting. 1t
once happened that a certain George
c. grew rather wearisome in his
exhortations, and his prudent breth-
rem, after solemn consultation, passed
the following resolution: at is the
sense of this meeting that George
c. be advised to remain silent un-
til such time as the Lord shall speak
through him more to our satisfaction

INK THAT WON'T FREEZE.
Needed to Make Records in Extreme
Iy Cold misunderstanding
About s.TonsOl."

When self-recording barometers
and thermometers are taken to the
arctic or antarctic regions, or are sent
I'D to great elevations in a balloon, it
is important that the ink with which
those instruments I equipped shall
not freeze. The lowest temperatures
ever recorded on the surface of the
earth, observed III Siberia, have been
in the vicinity of 81 degrees below zero,
Fahrenheit. Some time or other that
record will probably be beaten in the
vicinity of the south pole, which is be-
lieved to be surrounded by land. No
such severe cold has been found on
arctic seas, even in the highest latitude
reached. By unnamed balloons sent
up last winter in Europe a tempera-
ture of 81 below zero was recorded,
saws the New York Tribune.

understand a communication recently
published in the Monthly Weather Re-
view and the National Geographic Mag

TWO DEAD ONE MISSING.
Results of an Early Morning Fire
in the Westchester Apartment
Building in Chicago.
THREE LIVES LOST, SEVERAL INJURED.
Twenty-Seven Families Occupied
the Building, and There Were Nu-
merOus Narrow Escapes in the
Panic which Followed the Out
break of the Fire.

Chicago, May 16.-Two lives were
lost in a fire that destroyed the
Westchester apartment building at
5017 Cottage Grove avenue early Fri
day morning. One man is missing and
is supposed to have persisted in the
flames while two persons were prob
ably fatally and others seriously in
jured by jumping from the windows.
The dead:
Louisa Phaesa, 10 years old.
Harry Strubley, so years old.
Missing:
Samuel Hall, 40 years old.
The injured:
Theodore Whittle, arm broken
Patrick Bolger, hands cut.
Nelson Lundberg, badly burned
about head.
Mrs. G. ID. Hoffman. back broken
and internally injured.
Louis Herbert, back broken.
The dead girl was found in the hall
on the second floor of the building
where she had apparently been over
come by smoke. The body of Strub-
ley was recovered from the basement.
where he was accustomed to sleep. 1t
is thought he vas rendered insensible
by smoke and drowned by the deluge
of water from the engines. The fire
started beneath a grocery store
which occupied the ground floor and
spread rapidly through the airshafts
until the entire building was ablaze.
Twenty-seven families lived in the
apartments on the three upper floors
n many persons narrowly escaped
in the panic which followed.
The property loss on building and
contents is estimated at $50, 1000.
D.. L. Hoffman, husband of the in
Jured woman, saved his two children
by throwing them from the second
story window upon a mattress. His
wife, however, tainted and fell TO the
ground. 1t is thought she will die.
Samuel Hall occupied a room in the
basement with %Strubley. His body
was not recovered, but he is thought
to have met the same fate as Strub-
ley, and the ruins are being searched
for his remains. Ambulances were
hurried to the aid of the injured, while
neighbors provided clothing for the
unfortunates, many of whom were
unable to save any of their effects
from the flames.

THE BATTLE OF MANILA BAY.
President Roosevelt D~edicates the
Monument in San Francisco to
Celebrat Dewey's victory.

San Francisco, May 15.-Under q
balmy sky and on the greensward of
Union square, Thursday morning,
President Roosevelt participated in
the dedication of the magnificent
monument erected in commemoration
of the victory of the American navy
at Manila. The monument consists of
a high shaft of white California
granite, surmounted by a bronze fig
ure of Victory holding in one out
stretched hand a wreath and in the
other a trident.
The president was escorted from
the hotel to the square by all of the
marines of the warships in the har-
Dor. On the stand from which he
addressed the assembled multitude
were the officers of the warships in
San Frisco bay and vicinity, and the
officers of the cruiser Grafton, the
flagship Of the British Pacific squad
ron.
IN Il Jew WOruS, SualTnaks james
G. Phelan presented the monument to
the city of San Francisco, and it was
as briefly accepted by Mayor Schmitz
OF behalf of the municipality.
President Roosevelt said San Fran
cisco should glory in concentrating
the navy's victory at Manila, as it had
opened the Pacific ocean to American
commerce., and more than any other
event had contributed to give the
United States a high place among the
naval powers. He dwelt on the neces-
sity of preparing ships, armament and
men for the navy. Naval battles are
fought in advance, and the Americans
won at Manila because they had made
ready for the strike. The necessity
of improving the navy was first made
apparent in 1882, and all of the war
ships we now have were built since
that time. Since the last war, the
naval strength of the United States
has been rapidly increasing, and Il
der the wise provisions of the last
congress has particularly advanced.
He urged practical work at sea,
particularly in craftsmanship, saying:
Remember that the shots that count

University of California.

university VI SdiiiOrhid.
Berkeley, Cal, May 15.-The citizens
of Berkeley united with the members
of the faculty and students of the
University of California, Thursday
morning, in rendering a tremendous
ovation to President Roosevelt and
party. Long before the hour set for
the arrival of the special train the
school children of the city, gaily fes-
TONED with flowers, assembled on
either side of the street leading to the
university entrance. The thorough
fare had been brilliantly decorated
for the occasion, and when the presi-
Dental party passed up the street the
avenue was completely carpeted with
blossoms.
The presidential train arrived at
the Berkeley station at 10:30 o'clock.
Carriages and a committee of repre-
sentative citizens were in waiting, and
the drive to the new ampitheater at
the university, where the commence
ment exercises were held, was imme-
diately begun.
AS President Roosevelt stepped
from his carriage and made his way
to the ampitheater, he vas surround
ed by 16 cavalrymen. He wore a hood
and gown, in conformity with the de-
gree of doctor of philosophy. The
programme had been timed so that
the presidential party arrived just be-
fore the comforting of degrees by
Gov. Pardee to members of the grad
uating class. When cheers that
greeted the appearance of President
Roosevelt had subsidized the rulers Of
the student body greeted the head of
the nation with the Harvard yell. He
gave approval by mods and smiles.
President Benjamin Ide Wheeler then
conferred degrees upon the 400 col
legians who sat upon the stage with
cap and gown. After this the presi-
dent was introduced by President
Wheeler, who simply said: Theodore
Roosevelt, president of the United
States" Then as the chief executive,
attired in black academic robe,
trimmed with purple, stepped into the
sunlight, President Wheeler said:
Theodore Roosevelt, by authority
of the regents of the University of
California, 1 confer upon you the de-
gree of doctor of laws. This is the
highest honor the state knows how to
confer on you. Its best it gives glad
ly."
President Roosevelt then addressed
the assemblage, eulogizing the state,
its people and the university. speak
ing in affectionate terms of his old
time friend, President Wheeler.
The Bulletin says President Roose-
welt has reached the conclusion that
the quarters and barracks at the
Preside are disgraceful, considering
the size and Importance of the reser-
walton. He is. therefore, going to
make it his immediate business to
write to Secretary Root and ask that
a large sum of money be diverted inn
mediately to the renovation of the
