DESCENDANTS OF
PATRIOTS GATHER
Sons and Daughters of the
Signers Of Declaration
Going to Jamestown.

Norfolk. Va, June IA dispatch
from Princeton n j., is as follows
Former President Grover Cleveland
received a call today from William S
Mexican, secretary of the Thomas JEFF
ferson memorial association. Mr. Nc
Kean came here to talk with the form
er president about the exercises which
have been planned to take place at the
Jamestown exposition on July 4. on
that day the lineal descendants of the
signers of the Declaration of indie
pendence Will get together and hold
appropriate exercises on the exposi-
ton grounds.
A little while ago the former presi-
dent wrote a letter TO Mr. Mexican and
this was given out to the press. In the
letter Mr.. Cleveland waxed enthusias-
tic about the plan and said it wiuId act
as a great stimulus to national, pa
triotic feeling. At his home tonight
Mr.. Cleveland issued this statement:
/ cannot conceive of an enterprise
more appropriate to the purpose and
sentiment which should characterize
the jamestown exposition than the
congregation of those who descended
from the patriotic and noble men who
pledged to each other their lives, their
fortunes and their sacred honor for the
establishment Of our free and indie
pendent nation. 1t has seemed to me
from the first that the mission of this
exposition should be more to arouse
the patriotism of our people and TO
stimulate their belief in the supreme
value of our institutions
1t must be confessed that these ideas
are in need of stimulation and renewal
against the all engrossing materialIsm
which threatens them in these days and
I should certainly esteem a success the
meeting to be held and the other efforts
of the Thomas jefferson Memorial as
sociation If it will keep before our
people the sentiment which after all
is the only sure foundation upon which
our nation can rest as one of the best
and Hottest achievements Of the James
town exposition.

MUZZLE ALL DOGS.
Prevalence OF Rabbies Calls Forth
Warming from Health Commits
siOner Evans.

Owing to the prevalence of the rab-
bies throughout the city, Health Com
missioner Evans of Chicago, issued
warning last evening TO the owners of
dogs throughout South Chicago. He
stated that for the safety of both the
owners and the CANNES themselves who
are liable 10 become infected, it is best
that the dogs should be muzzled. Pos
tive diagnoses of robbies was made by
the city chemists last week in sever
al instances and with the warm wealth
er at hand the danger increases.
There were number of cases Of
mad dogs during the past week in
South Chicago and many other animals
were bitten by the dogs affected who
did not hesitate TO attack children and
even grown people. The dog catcher
was extremely busy last week round
ing up the stray CANNES and many
were found TO be affected with the
dread disease.

South Chicago June IA bad street
car accident was narrowly everted yes

GHOST FOLLOWS
HAMMOND AUTO
Creditable Citizens Will
Swear They Saw Appara-
ton at Highlands Bridge

A ghost was seen in the vicinity of
the bridge that crosses the Calumet
river at the Highland road and four
or five creditable citizens in Hammond
are ready to swear to it.
What is more, this particular ghost
seems to have an aversion to automo-
biles. 1t is what might be termed an
automobile, a hank honk" ghost. The
automobile party which Will swear
they saw a ghost was composed of Ed
ward Earl, Joe Worlen, Dave Worlen
and two Chicago men whose names are
unknown.
To forstall all attempts to prove that
the party was "piped" they are all
also willing to swear that they had not
taken a drink during the evening.
The story as told by one Of the par
ty and substantiated by the rest is as
follows: The party was bowling along
at a good rate of speed when they
approached the bridge on the Highland
road.
The machine was slowed down to
take the bridge when one OF the party
happened to look out over the river
and uttered an exclamation of aston
ishment for there lowering ten feet
above the water was the outline Of
man as plain as could be.
There could be no mistaking it. He
was close enough so that all Of the
members of the party could describe
him accurately. And what is more TO
hear their description separately they
all tally.
The man was standing on air over
the river and remained there motion
less until the machine had crossed the
bridge. The men were not frightened.
There were too many in the party.
But they were curious and had about
decided to go back and take another
look at the mysterious fellow when
they looked off to the side OF the road
and noticed him moving along with
the machine and still maintaining his
position at a height Of about ten feet
from the ground
| There are willows along the road at
this place and there is also some open
country and the occupants OF the auto
mobile will swear that they saw the
man moving at the side OF the ma
/ chine.
The story would not be worth repeat
I ing if it was not for the fact that to
| this day all the members OF the party
will stand by their statement that they
positively saw an apparation follow
/ ing the automobile.

Science at schoo,

The education of our young in
science at school is another hope OF
the future of our race, for the seed is

fertile mental field Of youth than
when it finds before it an older soil,
already much occupied with worldly
affairs.-London News.

local police started patrolling Gibson
and the territory around the Standard

would be patrolled regularly. Cover

kicks by those living in these dis
