ON THE TRAIL OF
AN ARMY SPOUSE

Among the passengers on the Sheri-
dan for Manila is pretty little Mrs.
| Herr, who is going out to the Philip
pines to look up her husband, Lieu
| tenant Charles +. Herr, Fourth Infan-
| try. According to her statement made
to some friends just prior to her de-
parture she was married to Lieutenant
Herr in her native place in Ontario,
just opposite Fort Wayne, in November,
| 1902. Just nine days after the wedding
| the lieutenant left and Joined his regi-
| ment, sailing to Manila on the Sher-
man on December l, 1902. Prior to his
| departure, Mrs. Herr claims he asked
her to deed over to him some of the
property that had been left her by her
| father. This she declined to do and
she said the young lieutenant departed
in a huff. Although they have kept up
a correspondence the tenor of the
young husbands letters she claims,
have become more or less cold. She
further claims that he has never con-
tributed a cent toward her support
since she married him. She also stated
that she had always expressed a de-
sire and wish to join her husband in
the islands, but had never received any
encouragement from him to do so.
Rumors, she claims, also reached her
ears that he was leading IA gay life in
the islands and that club life was great
lly to his liking. A social game of cards
was also much to his taste, she averred.
Finally the rumors came so thick and
fast that the young wife decided to see
for herself the condition of affairs and
CO dot RI pp m Manila She
also intimated that unless Lieutenant
Herr made reparation for his past
treatment she should Immediately re-
turn to this country and begin suit for
divorce.
Mrs. Herr stated that her maiden
name was Miss Edith Nelson and that
her father was a full-blood North
American Indian, while her mother was
la French Canadian. She was born in
the house where she says she was mar
Tried.
Mrs. Herr is barely 90 years old,
highly cultured and of unusually at
tractive personality. She is rather
small of statue, but makes n handsome
and aristocratic appearance. She claims
that her individual property is worth
about $4,000 and she says she is now
afraid that ii was this that attracted
the young officer and not her feminine
charms.

out extras and the sale of these was

HACKMAN'S BULLET
RIDDLED BODY
Found in the Road just Outside OF
Ocala, Fla.

Ocala, Fla, June 21.-William Ruth
a negro hackman. was mysteriously
murdered just outside the city last
night. He took a white man and
white boy about 10 years old in his
hack at the public square and drove
off with them. but no one noticed in
which direction he went.
Ruth's dead body was found this
morning on the Fort King road, a lit
tie over a mile from the city limits.
There were six bullet holes in the
back of his head and neck. His horses
and hack were found a short distance
from his body. Whoever killed him
was evidently sitting in the back seat
of the hack and emptied pistol into
Ruth. According TO the bloodstains on
the road, Ruth. on being shot, partly
fell out of the carriage, which was
drawn some distance by the horses,
before the body fell to the ground.
One of the bullets extracted from his
neck was of 80 caliber. 1t is not
thought the white man and boy seen
getting into his carriage were connect
ed with his death, through they were
the last people seen with him.

In the passing of Waldeck-Rousseau
the church is spared one of her most
relentless prosecutors, says the Balti-
more Mirror. Now the question: did
Waldeck-Rousseau receive the last
rites of the church:" is being passed
around. To this there have been con-
Trajectory answers, but none goes so
far as to affirm that the eX-premier
was favored with this especial privi-
lege in it's completeness. 1t is alleged
that Father Mammus, q close friend of
Waldeck-Rousseau, was with the lat
ter shortly before his death. This,
though, is not authenticated, and the
truth would seem that he had died as
he had lived. During his life he had
busted himself in the persecution of
the church, and in the defamation of
Catholicity in general. All the papers
unite in maintaining it was his last
wish to return to the church before
his death, but that through inadvert-
ence a priest did not reach him until
death had overtaken the ex-premier.
Thus passed away tyrant pure and
simple, one who thought to crafty his
worldly ambitions during his life, and
at his death make hasty reparation.
The anger of heaven was not to be
appeased so easily. Will his successors
profit by the example of his rather sad
demise?

not to modern revivalists, but to the
women of the settlement from it's be-
ginning. They taught the ancient
tongue to their children, and fostered
in them a love for the traditions and
folklore of Ireland, which has never
since been lost. They speak English,
too, of course; but it is as much to
their advantage to be bi-lingual as it
is to that of the residents of the many
German settlements in the same state,
and the great northwest. Perhaps
there are other Irish-speaking colonies
in the country. If so. some account
of them would be of great interest to
Americans Of Irish blood, and to those
of all nationalities who are interested
in the Gaelic revival.

Miss Florence Sandes, % years old,
after working her way to st. Louis
from her home in Cork, Ireland, start
ed from the Worlds Fair grounds on
Monday, August 8, to walk to San
Francisco, whence she will sail for
Hongkong, thence to Australia, and
back to Ireland. Miss Sandes carries
baggage weighing ten pounds, and will
be armed to protect herself on her
long journey. She plans to stop long
enough at the large cities on the route
to earn money to pay her expenses.
She is stenographer, and was en-
ployed at the Irish industrial exhibit
at the Worlds Fair. The object of
the undertaking on the part of the
young woman is, she declares, to see
the country and to obtain information
for book which she intends to write
upon returning to her home. She is
we'll educated, and already has volum-
inous notes Of incidents, people and the
United States in general to compile an
interesting story.

Congress, at it's next session, will,
without doubt, be called upon again to
pass upon the army canteen question,
but it is predetermined whether the
question will be decided with single
view to the best interests of the en-
listed men in the army. The canteer
is opposed Internationally by a class
of the community who regard it as
moral issue, and who will be uninflu-
enced by any testimony in favor of
the institution, no matter how cOmpe-
tent the witnesses may be. They will.
moreover, make themselves heard,
while the soldiers who want the cam
teen and the army officers who believe
it to be an agency promoting good or
der and discipline are either unorgan-
lied or prevented by their official Pc
sitions and duties from resOrting to the
tactics of the lobby. 1t is certainly sig
nificant that the great majority OF
army officers believe that the abolition
of the canteen was mistake and they
show that it has been followed by Il
great increase in drunkenness, deserton
and ceurt-martial cases.

Herrick soon proved himself to be a
successful fighter. He had a strong

he became corporation counsel.

no doubt of the result in the state of
