with flowers on every Memorial day.
The members of the local grange have
charged themselves with this tribute to
the patriot dead, and in default of a
veteran organization will continue to
pay it. Perhaps in this instance of

eranS. on the contrary, as we draw
away from the great events of history
we find new kind of interest aroused
in them. Today the graves of the sol
diers of the Revolution, so long neg
lected by generations nearer to them
than ourselves, are all marked and
honored. Thousands of men who
trace their descent to those who fought
for the independence of the United
States are directly, actively Interested
in the memorial labors of the Sons Of
the Revolution. The Sons of Veterans
and kindred organizations will render
q like service to the memory Of the SOL
diers of the Union. Again. an OBJ

tinued progress of years, until 1t brings
within it's sweep thousands who are far
removed by time from the period of its
initiation.
1t must be nearly forty years since
the custom of decorating soldiers
graves led to the establishment of Me
mortal day. Originally a purely mill
tary ceremony, it has become almost
national and is no longer limited to the
last resting places of soldiers. Every
cemetery bears witness to the general
imitation of the example of the vet
Grams. The graves of the loved and
lost receive the tribute of affection to
such an extent that the flutteriDg little
flag is not needed to designate sol
dier's sepulchre." The 30th of May is
becoming a "Day of the Dead" on
which the soldier dead are not likely to
be forgotten.

the bomb was intended for the young
king and the English girl whom he

Hanging a Woman.

Mjssonri Is one of the largest states
of the Union and although it has been
a state for IS years with capital pun
jshment laws In vogue all the time, 1t
question Shall a woman be hanged?"
1t seems that several colOred women
have been put to death Ia that state by
process of law, but their death made
no special sensation. Now for the
first time a white woman Is under
sentence of death and the controversy
which 30 stirred New England before
the hanging OF Mary Rogers In YER
mont is being duplicated In Missouri
City. has written an appeal To the wo-
men OF the state, numerous ciuDs
have taken up the matter. petitions
are being circulated and the granting
or refusing of executive eiemehey
promises To play part i'm the future
political career Of Governor Folk.
The crime Of Mrs. Myers was much
like that of Mrs Rogers and the mo-
tive was the same. Even In the crimi-
nal annals of Missouri there have been
few murders more revolving and cold
blooded. After having been unfaith-
full to her husband, false to him in
every way, she brought her paramour.
a
neighboring town and planned the
murder of her husband. In the dead
of night the wife stealthily admitted
her accomplice. The evidence showed
that Hoffman hesitated at the crime,
but was urged on by Mrs. Myers.
Hoffman was armed with a club made
from billiard cue and urged by the
wife went to the bedside of the sleep
ing husband and struck him glancing
blow The victim of the outrage was
stunned, but made a gallant resistance
and might have succeeded in saving
his life had 1t not been for the wife.
who disregarding the pitiful cries of
Help me. honey" slashed her husband
time and again across the face and
throat with a razor and stabbed him
with a pair of scissors.
Both Hoffman and Mrs. Myers We're
found guilty. the supreme court affirm
ing the verdict last week. They must
hang on June Goth unless Governor
Folk interferes. There is not the least
semblance of a doubt as to the guilt of
either. Hoffman confessed, but was
unable to save his own neck. No new
evidence has been found; the only
thing is the natural masculine abhor-
renee of hanging a woman. 1t is
agreed that If ever a woman in the
country deserved hanging it is Mrs.
Myers. Whether public sentiment will
be strong enough to save her remains
to be seen. Governor Folk has re-
peatcdly demonstrated that he does
not allow his own political preferment
to interfere with what he believes to
be right and duty; while the recent
hanging of Mrs. Rogers I'm Vermont
has opened the way for similar exc
cutions where guilt has been clearly
established.

The initial number of Carleton's State
of Maine Sportsman's Journal has re-
ceiyed a most cordial reception on all
sides and is getting f1attering mention
not only in the papers of Maine but
also in those outside its borders. 1t is
a very attractive magazine Of "a pages.
neatly printed on good paper, well il
lustrated and filled with information
and special articles on the game, sum-
mer tourist and forestry interests of
the State of Maine. With Commits
sioncr Carleton as editor and with such
authorities as Col. F.. C. harrington
and Hon. ]. F. Sprague associated with
him. this magazine cannot fail to be
first in the field which it enters and TO
make itself invaluable TO Maine sports
men and vacationists. This first num-
Der has among its features story by
Holman F. Day in his best vein, and
special articles by Hon. Henry o.
Stanley, r. +. Boothbay, Col. Earring
ton. Mr.. Sprague and several by Mr.
Carleton, all teeming with interest and
well worth reading and preserving
The magazine will do much to help
Maine. 1t is just the kind of publica-
tion that has been needed and its
suspicious start in life is a matter of
general congratulation.
After n separation Of % years
during which time neither knew that
the other was living, Albert L. Wilson
Of Peabody. Mass, is now visiting his
father. Charles f. Wilson of Bath,
and the visit is a most joyous one for
both. Accompanying his son is his
wife and little daughter, Flora, and the
happy trio has been busy during the
week in looking over the many natural
and artificial beauties of the Shipping
city. The cause of this visit is a very
strange one resulting as it does from
an attempt during the winter by
young Mr.. Wilson, who supposed
himself an orphan almost from i'll
fancy, to learn if he had any living
relatives at all. Through an mtima-
ton from distant relatives in Lowell,
Mass, he became convinced that he
had father living somewhere in
Maine. so he set about to locate him
and i'm this was assisted by Rev. Ma
than Bailey of the First Baptist
church of Peabody, of which he was a
member. Mr.. Bailey wrote personal
letters to the heads Of the police de-
rartments in all the cities Of Maine
and in closing asked that mention
might be made in the local papers that
the person who might be acquainted
with the case i'm some manner. 1t was
by this means that William A. Mer
rill. then city marshal of Bath, went to
work on the case and discovered that
the sought for parent was Charles f..
Wilson of that city, well known
painter, paper hanger and frescoer.
