BLOODY ROPE FOUND.
Ohio Authorities Believe College Stu
dents Had a Hand in Com
rade's Death.

Mount Vernon, O., Nov. 3.-Bufied
beneath a culvert 200 feet from the
spot where Stuart Pierson, the Kenyon
college student was ground to death
by train, the authorities have found
three lengths of blood-stained rope and
a wad of absorbent cotton, also sat-
urated with blood. County Prosecutor
Stillwell: expresses the firm belief that
the boy was chloroformed, the cotton
saturated, bound across his face, and
that then he was tied across the tracks
as q part of his initiation into col
lege fraternity The authorities be-
lieve that the cotton was removed later,
and the boy left stupefied. On these
grounds the prosecutor will carry the
case to the grand jury on November
10. Prosecutor Stillwell stated Thurs
day that several persons are under
surveillance in connection with the
case and that they may be taken into
custody before the conclusion Of the
inquest.

GREETED BY PRESIDENT.
British Rear Admiral, Prince Louis Of
Battenberg, Received at a

Washington, Nov. 4.-With great
eclat' Rear Admiral Prince Louis Of
Battenberg was received by the presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt at three.
o'clock Friday afternoon. The prince
was the bearer of personal message
of good will from King Edward to
President Roosevelt, and was presented
to the president by Sir Henry Morti-
mer Durand, the British ambassador.
The presentation was made the occa-
sion for a brilliant reception. At
night the British ambassador and Lady
Durand gave state dinner to their
distinguished house guest, followed BY
a large reception and ball. Not since
Prince Henry of Prussia was guest .of
the German embassy at Washington
has a royal visitor been the recipient
of greater honors than those with
which Britain's admiral prince has
been welcomed to the national capital.
Save for the absence Of military honors
the princes entry to the capital has
been invested with as much ceremony
as that which made memorable the
greeting to the Prussian prince several
years ago.

YOUNG GIRL SLAIN.
She Takes Poison, But u Beaten to
Death While in the Last Throes
Sweetheart Suspected.

Kansas City, NO., Nov. 6.-The dead
body of Winona Charlotte Newton,
aged Is years, daughter Of Thomas
Newton, painter, was found beside a
bridge over small stream near Fifty
fifth street and College avenua,son the
outskirts Of the city. She evidently
had been murdered. The face had been
disfigured by many cuts, there were
finger marks on her throat and stone
weighing $50 pounds weighted down
the body. An examination by Deputy
Coroner Parker disclosed that 3the
stomach contained a large quantity of
acid, but the officers assert that death
resulted from violence before the acid
had had time to act. Above thssright
eye was cut made by blow deliver
ed with such force that the skull had
been fractured.
The theory of the police Is that the
girl went to the bridge to meet her
sweetheart, that they quarreled and
that be murdered her. The detectives
believe that after the supposed quarrel
the girl swallowed the carboltc acid In
an attempt to commit suicide, but that
she was murdered before the drug took
effect. Another theory is that the two
had entered into a suicide compact
but that the man failed to keep his
agreement, and killed the girl 10 put
her out of her misery. ::5sSs
Miss Lilly Matney, friend Ne the
dead girl, said she had conflded That

A NATIONS GRATITUDE.
President Roosevelt Sets Aside Thurs
day, November 80, As Day
70, Of Thanksgiving.

Washington, Nov. 3.-The president
on Thursday issued his proclamation
naming Thursday, November 80 next
as day for Thanksgiving. 1t is as fol-
lows: -
by the President of the United
States of America-A Proclamation:
When nearly three centuries ago the
first settlers came to the country which
has now become this great republic,
they confronted not only hardship and
privation, but terrible risk to their
lives. In those grim years the custom
grew Of setting apart one day in each
year for special service of thanksgiv-
ing to the Almighty for preserving the
people through the changing seasons.
The custom has now become national
and hallowed by immemorial usage.
We live in easier and more plentiful
times than our forefathers, the men
who with rugged strength faced the
rugged days, and yet the dangers to ma
tional life are quite as great now as
al any previous time in our history. 1t
is eminently fitting that once year
our people should set apart q day for
praise and thanksgiving to the Giver
OF Good, and, at the same time, that
they express their thankfulness for the
abundant mercies received, should
manfully acknowledge their shortcom-
ings and pledge themselves solemnly
and in good faith to strive to overcome
them. During the past year we have
been blessed with bountiful crops. Our
business prosperity has been great:
No other people has ever stood on as
high a level of material well-being as
ours now stands. We are not threat
ened by foes from without. The foes
from whom we should pray to be de-
livered are our own passions, appetites
and follies, and against these there is
always need that we should war.
Therefore, I now set apart Thurs
day, the 30th day of this November, as
a day Of Thanksgiving for the past and
Of prayer for the future, and en- that
day I ask that throughout the land the
people gather in their homes and
places of worship, and in rendering
thanks unto the Most High for the
manifold blessings of the past year,
consecrate themselves to life of
cleanliness, honor and wisdom, SO that
this nation may do it's allotted work on
the earth in a manner worthy of those
who founded it and of those who pre-
served it.
I'm witness whereof have hereunto
act nv hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this second day of November. in the
year of our Lord one thousand nine
hunsled and five, and of the independ-
ence of the United States the one hun
ded and thirtieth.
