HARRY y. ROACH. ions but his savage
bulldogs and cats Sometimes he be-
comes communicative in his reminis-
cences about government officials, his
experience of the inner workings of
the Secret Service Department and his
business transactions with General l..
{. Baker, chief detective of the War
Department during the war between
the States. Roach came to Bruce's
lake in 1896, and under the site of his
log cabin home he buried copper
lined wooden box, the contents of
which reveal the dark secret history
Of Washington cIty's darkest doings.
Roach was with Blaine when he re-
signed from Harrison's cabinet in 1892
and says he wrote Blaine's famous re-
ciprocity bill. He says further:
In the memorable Presidential
campaign of 1884 | was Blaine's pri-
yate secretary and was standing near
Rev. s. d. Burchard, a Presbyterian
minister, who was addressing Blaine,
when the minister made that startling
expression. Rum. Romanism and Re
bellion.' l called Blaine's attention to
the fact that the Democratic news
paper reporters We're preparing to
make political capital out of Bur
chard's insult to the Roman Catholic
Church. Blaine apparently seemed to
think that Burchard'S caustic remark
would not do any political harm and
to attempt to correct it would offend
the Protestant vote"
Roach is a brother of W y. Roach,
at one time United States Senator
from North Dakota. who was charged
with embezzling $4,000 some twenty
five years ago. Harry Roach once
lived in a splendid home in Washing
ton. To-day he is surrounded by swail
and marshes. and in summer time the
waters of the marshes are covered
over with a grenish-yellow slime and
decayed vegetation. The monotony is
broken by the growing cattails, blue
flags, water lilies and wild rice. 1t is
the feeding grounds of the wild water
fowl and the auditorium Of the croak-
ing bullfrog. Here and there the mo-
notony is broken by a few species of
barren scrub oak trees, wild fern and
wintergreens. At night there rises
from the marsh waters a dense yapor.
which casts its pallid gloom over the
hermit's home. while the wind mourn
fully blows across the lake.

Woman's Strange Burial Requests

Remarkable ceremonial attended the

her only son. She had planned her
obsequies to the minutest detail, and all
her wishes We're strictly observed.
-Four horses drew the hearse The
coffin was not adorned with any flowers,
but was covered with a violet velvet
pail, exquisitely embroidered to the de-
sign of Mrs. Mills. The will directed
that ten bearers should be engaged at u
fee of a guinea each, all Of whom, with
the gentlemen in the morning party,
wore old fashioned ''weepers" secured .
their silk hats with rosettes.
On a magnificent marble column in the

ago caused her name to be inscribed, and
beneath it the richly polished, panelled
oak coffin was deposited in the presence
of an immense crowd.-London Chron

Big Michigan Trout.

What is supposed to be the largest
rainbow trout ever caught in Michigan
was landed out of the Pere Marquette
river on the first day of the present fish
ing season by c. G. Kuennen Of this
city.
The trout is the granddaddy Of all Of
them in that stream, and has often been
seen by anglers. He measures thirty
inches and weighs fourteen pounds. 1t
took two hours to land the old fellow.
and the angler was forced to travel
three miles up and down stream near
Baldwin while landing it. The nSh IS Oh
