BONES OF THE DEAD.
WERE SCATTERED RUTHLESSLY
ABOUT THE FLOOR BY PER
SONS WHO STOLE JEW
ELRY FROM TOMB.
A GANG OF Ho5OEs WAS AR
RESTED AND SOME OF THE
MISSING JEWELRY
FOUND.

ALBANY, N. Y, June 17.-Late in
April the discovery was made that
the tomb of the Iivin gstons on the
old mans property near Hudson had
been entered, caskets broken open
and the bones of the dead scattered
ruthlessly about the floor. After the
death of General Henry W. Living
ston in 1SOS Lay Mary Livingston
presided over the manor house until
her death in 1859. Tradition has 1t
that family jewels of almost priceless
value We're buried with her in the
old tomb, the iron door locked and
the key thrown into the lake.
The cofins of the General and
Lady Mary we're broken open and
it was the supposition at the time
that the motive OF the ghouls was to
secure the jewels supposed to have
been buried About this time the
summer house of Depeymaster was
burglarized and the jewels recovered
to-day are supposed to have been
been stolen either from the Depey-
master residence or the Livingston
tomb The Depeymasters and the
Livingston families are of revolution
airy fame and the jewels are the ac-
emulation of years.
Yesterday the police were inform
ed that a gang of hoboes were work
ing the GROWER at the house OF
Frank Morgan on South Lansing
street. The house was raided and
five arrests made. King, one of the
gang, was caught with the goods on
him. They were wrapped in white
silk handkerchief, which King had.
The police found number of valu-
able stick pins, lockets, rings and
brooches. from which the stones had
been removed, an enamel and gold
Jockeys cap, studded with diamonds
and pearls from TiTany's, a massive
gold bracelet with large black onyx
ornaments surrounded with pearls,
old fashioned earrings and other jew
elry.
King told the police he was tan
ner 90 years old and a resident OF
Brooklyn. Adams and Ryan were
committed to the penitentiary on a
pledge, guilty OF vagrancy. Johnson
and Rush pleaded not guilty and were
committed for examination.

HENRY G.. DAVIS,
BORN A.. .. 1923.

The Democracy of West Virginia
has quite an aged gentleman as IT'S It's
apparent choice for the gubernatoriaa-il
1nIomin ton. One scarcely realizes
his an iquity until he thinks OF some
of the events recorded in history
since the Hon. Henry G.s advent in
to this world He was born under
Monroe's administration and the MIS-
souri, Compromise antedates ms
birth but three years. He is co-exlst.
ent with the famous message OF Pres
ident Monroe, in which he outlined
the policy since known as the Mon
roe Doctrine He preceded the adj
vent of the railroad into this coun-
try by five years and he had reached
his majority when on the morning
Of December "a, 1874, Professor
Morse sent his famous test message
to the Supreme Court Rooms in the
Capitol at Washington, What hath
God wrought" He was fifteen years
old when the first express package
was sent in America. Mr. Davis
was five years of age when Noah
Webster's dictionary was first pub
1ished and he can remember when
Andrew jackson drew the ten mil
lion dollars from the public deposi-
tories and established the pet
banks as he was then a lad of ten.
Senator Davis was living in Maryland
at the time of the visit to this coun-
try of General Lafayette, the honored
friend of George Washington; La
fayette took part in laying the cor
ner stone of Bunker Fill Monument.
June II, 1925. Davis cast his first vote
for James K. Polk who defeated
Henry Clay for the Presidency. He
was old enough TO have been sol
der in the Mexican war. McCor-
mick's reaper and mower, Colts re-
yolyer. Erickson's screw propeller for
steam vessels, Hoes steam printing
press and Howe's sewing machine
were unknown things in the early
days of Democracy's favorite. 1t
would be cruel to lay the burden of
governing commonwealth upon
such decrepit shoulders.

Those Cumberland papers and re-
5porters TO city papers ought to be
fttttdisfranc hised for the reports they
had published throughout the country
about the shops at Keyser being clos
ed indefinitely. There were not nearly
so many men laid off from the Keyser
shops as there were in Cumberland.
True, we would miss them more be-
cause of Cumberland's greater re-
sources, than that city does, but the
fact is the B. & o. is still making

and slum politics--that man hctrays his
country as much and as truly as if he de-
serted its flag in fight and went over to the
enemy And the man who darcs not go to
the polls and vote according as his conscience
dictates deserts his brother and bctrayS him.
If Mr. Riis means the primary ''polls,'
how can 200 democrats in big 26" make
it convenient and comfortable to get
janlmed inside ten-foot alley and each
wait his turn for 80 minutes?
And what must we think of the 200,
having the remedy in their own hands,
allow half dozen to thus disfranchise
them at the most important of all their
elections?
Or if he means the general election
polls" what show has conscience" i'll
a squeeze between alternative evils, re-
sulting from disfranchisement at the
primaries?
The moral of all this is-it is useless if
not wicked to take our conscience to
church 104 times year and have it stay
away from the polls even one time, cs-
peciallv the primary polls!
