HISTORIC RELIC OF INTEREST.
Chair Said to Have Been Used by
Fuoitive Reqicide Judges.


In the possession of the Rev. A. N.
Somers of Sharon, Mass, is an old
chair. said to have been used by the
regicide judges, COTE and Whaley,
after their escape to America and
while they were in hiding here from
the kings troops Whaley was a
brother-in-law of Oliver Cromwell.
and William COTE was the formers
son-in7law and one Of the strongest
men in Cromwells government.
The chair was used by them while
they were in hiding in the house Of
the Rev John Russell in Hadley, after
leaving the hiding place in the cave
in Connecticut 1t formerly had rock
ers on it, which it is said were worn
off during the fourteen years of con-
slant use by one or the other OF the
two exiles as they sat in the attic
room of Mr.. Russell's house.
Tradition says that Judge COTE was
sitting in this chair when the Indians
attacked the village, and that he rose
from it to take command of the citi.
zen forces that drove the savages off
after a stubborn fight
After the death of Mr.. Russell this
chair, by purchase, came into the pos
session of Mrs. Hadley, who re-
moved from Massachusetts to Burnt
Hills, N. Y At her death it passed
to her daughter, Mrs. Hinkson, whose
son Ezra, some 70 years of age, in
1880 gave the chair to Mr. Somers,
pastor of the church of which he was
a member in Holland, N. Y. 1t has
been in Mr.. Somers' possession since.
''The story of the chair being con-
nected with COTE and Whaley," said
Mr.. Somers recently, "came with SO
much directness and simplicity from
such artless and illiterate people that
have always accepted 1t as undoubt-
eddy true, and of importance as con-

WASHINGTON LETTER.

From oar Regular O0rrespondontD
Washington, July 1st, 1905.
EDITOR Press
1t is probable that few people
have followed the details leading
up to the resignation of John T.
Wallace, Chief Engineer of the
Panama Canal and a member of
the Canal Commission. sufficiently
closely to appreciate the full meas
are of his lack Of loyalty in throw
ing up his Office to accept a posi-
ton which offered greater remun-
Grafton, but no one can read the
terrible arraignment of the former
Chief Engineer which Secretary
Taft delivered to him, in person,
without gathering some idea of the
size, mentally rather than physi-
cially, Of the Secretary of War, Of
the high ideals which inspire his
every action, Of his high concep-
ton Of loyalty to his government
ant the business and manliness
which prevades the man.
Briefly, the circumstances were
6hese. Wallace, at his own soli-
citation, was made member of the
commission. His every suggestion
was received with respect and in
practically every instance, was
d carried into effect. As recently
as May 26, Wallace wrote to the
chairman of the commission that
he was entirely satisfied, "delight-
ed, " in fact with everything that
had been done and would throw
himself into the work with his
whole heart and soul. The Chair
.nlan had urged him to so organize
this engineering force as to provide
for such an emergency as his illness,
his being suddenly called away
from the isthmns, ETC., and Wallace
d. had proposed to do this. Then,
twelve days after his letter of May
26, he accepted proposition from
a New York concern and, accord
ing to his own statement, his only
stipulation, when asked if he would
accept the new place had been, "It
IS simple matter Of terms and
conditions.

Brief Services Held Over Remains Of

Stanford University, March 24.-The
body of the late Mrs. Jane Stanford.
who recently died at Honolulu. now
rests in Stanford masoleum between
the bodies of her husband and son.
near Stanford University. Before the
final commitment of Mrs. Stanford's
body, services were held in the great
memorial church erected by her in low
ing memory of her husband. The
church was filled with thousands of
people from all over the state who
came to pay their tribute OF respect.
Promptly at 1: 80 this afternoon the
grand organ in the memorial church
began the solemn tones of Chopin's
funeral march and at the same mo-
ment the bronze doors at the main en-
trance swung open to admit a small
cortege of pail bearers and relatives
escorting the coffin. Eight of STAN
ford's most stalwart athletes bore the
body down the aisle and placed it in
front Of the altar. In conformity with
the often expressed wishes of Mrs
Stanford no wealth of flowers adorn-
ed the chancel or altar and only few

board of health has power. to keer
children from attending school because
of not being vaccinated 1t also has
the power and duty to keep any un-
vaccinated person from mingling in
crowds or assemblages' il; the declar-
alton in the petition filed on behalf OF
the school board today, IN which an
injunction is asked to restrain the
board of health from enforcing its
mandates in relation to compulsory
vaccination OF teachers, pupils and jan
itors.
The petition further reeites that the
maintenance of the public school sys-
tenn of this city entails all annual ex-
pense Of 100000 and that the respon-
sibility for giving value received to
the city is vested solely IN the school
board. The health board is charged
with a desire to take possession OF
the schools, to close them at Its dis
cretion, and this act, 1t is explained,
would cause big financial loss to the
district by virtue of contracts in ex-
istence which would enable teachers
to draw full salaries for such closed
period.

ised to file his answer before night and

ment of the case will &C me up before

ORDER i YET SIGNED.
Delay in a fishing r. r. D. Head
qut f,ls at Omaha.


Observation-Disclosures to the Omaha
Bee: Postmaster General Cortelyou
has not as yet signed the order locat-
ing the western divisiom Of the rural
free delivery at Omaha, but there is no
doubt that the order will be issued In
the near future. Senator Long was
in conference with the postmaster gem
eral in relation to the removal of the
clerks now at Kansas City to Omaha
in event the latter city is made divis-
ion Headquarters. AS there are only
thred clerks at Kansas City. 1t appears
that Senator Longs suggestion that
they be allowed to remain at Kansas
City Is not likely to be realized. Before
former Postmaster General Wynne left
the office he placed on file a memoran-
dun for HIS successor that Omaha be
made headquarters for the western di-
vision of the rural free delivery. Had
he remained the memorandum would
have been regarded as an order but
Mr.. Cortelyou, desiring to review the
matter he directed the memorandum
to he held upi until such time as he
could examine into the merits of the
case. There Is no apprehension that
Omaha will lose the headquarters, for
the postmaster general has told the
Nebraska delegation that everything
would be all right" but the delay is
what irritates. 1t is expected that Mr..
Cortelyou will not only promulgate the
order establishing the Headquarters
at Omaha, but at the same time viii
