DIR. KEELER's ASHES
IN A VAULT UNDER
OBSERVATORY DOME
Taken From This City to
Resting-Place at Ale
ghany.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

PITTSBURG, June 27.-Announce-
ment was made today by the officials of
the Allegheny Observatory that the
remains of the late DR.. James E. Keeler,
the famous astronomer of Lick OSser
vatory, arrived in Pittsburg by express
two weeks ago and were buried with
simple services in a vault beneath the
great dome of the Allegheny Observa-
tory in the base, upon which will rest
the great Keeler memorial telescope
The burial was conducted by DR.. John
A Bradshear, one of the most intimate
friends of DR.. Keeler and founder of the
new observatory, and Professor Frank
Schleschinger director of the Allie
ghany Observatory.
The two scientists placed a laurel
wreath over the urn holding the ashes
and some unknown persons have since
the burial placed vases of fresh flowers
daily in the anteroom of the burial
chamber. It is believed that the flow
are left there by two women who for
years have been steadfast friends of
the Western university and of the AL
leghany Observatory and who were
warm admirers of DIR. Keeler.
The body of DR.. Keeler was buried at
his death in vault in the Odd Fellows
Cemetery in San Francisco, and one
week before the earthquake it was cX-
humed and cremated and the ashes
were placed in an urn preparatory to
bringing them to Pittsburg-
1t was the intention of Mrs. Keeler to
accompany the ashes here with her
family and attend the proposed mem
orial services In honor of her distin-
guished husband. The earthquake aud
other incidents tended to prevent this.

tion would be paid therefrom In reply

The following platform was adopted;

OF our aims and purposes when we
again affirm that we stand as ever for

MOUND BUILDER RELICS
DUG UP in WISCONSIN
Skull of Prehistoric Man In
earthed Near Array of
Stone Implements.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

TREMPEALEAU, Wis, June 27.-Ex-
cavators removing soil for new side
walk a half block south of Main street
today uncovered the skeleton of what
is believed to have been a mound build
er; also some well-preserved stone I'M
plements, weapons. pottery and an
oven, presumably of prehistoric origin
Ernest Bright made the discovery.
He saw part of a skull prctruding
from the damp earth and, after digging
a few feet below, the spinal column
and other bones were found. Citizens
say the bones are either those of an
Indian Of unusual type or of one of the
mound builders, who, archaeological re-
searches have proved, lived in the vi
cinity of Trempealeau.
The latter theory is more generally
accepted because of the array of stone
implements found with the bones Chief
among these was a stone ak in perfect
condition, many arrow heads and stone
knives.
A clay oven was found imbedded IN
the dirt. II is composed of whitish
clay which somewhat resembles soap
stone, though of a softer composition.
Many dishes OF blackish cast and
made of a peculiar stone were found.

TAMMANY HITS AT HEARST.
Selects His Bitterest Foe to Deliver
Fourth of July Grafton.

NEW YORK, June 27-Surprise
amounting almost to a sensation was
caused in Tammany political circles
today by the announcement that Con-
gresham John NJ. Sullivan of Massa-
chusetts is to be one of the principal
speakers at the Fourth of July cele-
bration in the Fourteenth street wig
wan.
This arrangement is regarded by
Tammany politicians as a direct slap
at Congressman Hearst, notwithstand-
ing the fact that Charles F. Murphy.
the leader of the organization. is sup
posed to favor the nomination of Hearst
for Governor by the Democratic State
convention.
Congressman Hearst and Sullivan
once engaged in a bitter war of words
in the House of Representatives. sui
livan attacked Hearst in a speech and
went into his record at length Hearst
replied by exploiting the fact that Con-
gresham Sullivan and his father had
once been indicted for manslaughter.
1t is matter of common report that
the personal feeling between the two
men is still extremely bitter.
Friends of Murphy said today tdat
the selection of Congressman Sullivan
as one of the chief speakers was hot
intended as an affront to Congressman
Hearst, but experienced politicians In
the organization smiled and shook their
heads at this statement
The Massachusetts Congressman has
not been prominent in. the House ex-
cept for his attack on Hearst, and it is
not believed in Tammany that he was
selected for his ability or reputation as
an orator; in fact, the arrangement is
the biggest kind of a surprise, in view
of the fact that Murphy was supposed
to be preparing to swing the Tammany
delegation in the State convention to
Hearst for the nomination for Gov
ernor.
