Reunion of Ex-Confederat

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 13.-The
United Confederate Veterans will
meet in fourteenth annual reunion in
this city Wednesday. A conservative
estimate is that 100000 visitors will
be in Nashville during the week The
business district is blosoming out in
mass of color in honor of the WISH
tors. The program Of the entire five
days Of the reunion has been arranged
so as to provide many interesting fea-
lures. There will be the usual big
parade, camp fire meetings and me-
mortal exercises in addition to the
routine business of the reunion. The
familiar face of General John B. Cor
don, commander in chief, who has
passed away since the last reunion,
will be missing, but many other veter-
ans and visitors of note are expected
to be present.

GIVE MUNROE TEN ROUNDS
Harry Corbett Believes That Will be
Turning Point.

san FRANCISCO, Cal, June 10
Betting on the approaching battle be-
tween Munroe and Jeffries has livened
mn ii bit. and at odds of 500 to $35
founi plenty of men willing to wager
their coin. The wise students of price
figured a few days ago that the open
mig price would be 10 to 4, but that
there might be a drop to lower fig
IRE. II now seems as though the price
ut present prevailing will be the ruling
ona throughout the week yet remain
ing before the fight
large part of the betting on the
affair will be upon the number of
rounds which Jeffries will require to
finish the miner. Although there has
be- 3. as yet little money placed on this
sdered to be the best judge of price in
the country, says that ten rounds will
be the turning point. Some of the
wise betters have conceived the idea
of getting even money that Jeffries
will win inside of ten rounds and then
protecting themselves with a little of
the short end on the general result.
There IS no way to figure MunrOe
winner of this fight on public form.
but he clearly outclasses every known
aspirant for the title a sorry array Of
bro ken down athletes at best. Here is
the list: Fitzsimmons, Corbett, Shar-
key. Rubin, Jack Johnson, McVey, Nc
Coy Gardner, Jeffords, Maher, Fergus
ON, Russell and throw in Berge and
Rodenbach for good measure.
Muuroe is two years younger than
Jeftries, and his friends claim he has
shown such aptitude for boxing during
the past few weeks that they will soon
I be prepared to make extravagant
claims for him. He is thoroughly game
( and has size and strength in keeping
1 with the title to which he aspires.

caught riding on the midnight train
meant anywhere from five to p days,
according to the ability of the person to

Death of Three Children.

South Iadlcy Falls, Mass. April b.
The ctatc authorities are investigating
the sudden deaths Of three children Of
norrias Capistand, IL wood chopper here
and the mysterious illness of the moth
q. Portions Of meat thought to be the
cause of the sickness, were taken away
recently for CHEMICAL analysis by the
state board offhcalth, the case having
been called to its attention by the
South IIadley board. All Knowledge Of
what has been found is Withheld but
when the analysis was made orders
We're sent hero to have portions of tho
bodies Of two children forwarded to
the Harvard medical laboratory.
The district attorney of Greenfield
was notified and he is in charge.
1t was learned that Medical Examiner
Branch Of Amherst, d. e. Hartman.
chief OF police, and Maj. Jas. Mckay of
the state police, went to the South Had
ley cemetery and obtained the parts
which wnrc scnt to Harvard. The bodies
of the children are in the receiving
tomb
Although the authorities were not
notified OF the mysterious features Of
the ease until this week it appears that
the first death occurred on April a. The
child was i'll but Il short time and die1
before a physician could be summoned.
1t was six years old. a four year Old
child died the following day and last
Saturday the third succumbed. Thn
