Memorial Day Exercises.

The services OF Decoration Day
were very interesting. In the morn
ing the Model Schools gave a patri-
otto program In the Chapel. This was
followed by the march TO the GENET
cry and the decoration OF the soldiers
graves. In the afternoon Prof. Dins-
more gave a strong address In the
Chapel He set forth the causes OF
the Civil War and the awful nature
OF the conflict In clear and graphic
manner. without stirring anew the
fires OF sectional passion which are
best covered by their own ashes. He
caused the thoughts OF his hearers to
take lines leading to true patriotism.
Mr.. A. p. Settle then. with a short
address. presented to Prof. Dodge the
beautiful banner which goes with the
Department Commandership. Prof.
Dodge received the flag and responded
In words we'll chosen and suited to tn
occasion. The College Band and the
Ariel Quartet added greatly to the in
terest OF the day.
Members of the local c. A. r. post
and visiting friends enjoyed a picnic
dinner on the campus.

G. A. n. Post Thanks Those Who Assis-
ted In Memorial Services.
Capt. James West G. A. r. post
and the affiliated patriotic organiza-
tions desire to express their sin
cere thanks to Berea College for the
use Of buildings. during the recent
patriotic observances, for the fine
program rendered in the morning of
May Both. and all other favors which
help make the public obseryances in
Berea so interesting and inspiring.
Their thanks are also due to Director
Ralph Rigby and Miss Winifred Camp
bell and their assistants as well as
to the College Band. for the excellent
music Of tho occasion.
The sermon of Memorial Sunday by
Prof Jas. w. Raine, was a most prac-
teal and helpful one. We desire to
thank him for 1t. and we hope that
in accordance with its spirit we shall
make the work of our organizations
count more toward the growth Of a
genuine and lofty patriotism in the
future than in glorying over the
achievements of the past
We feel that we have been especial
fortunate in having our Prof. ]. w.
Dinsmore to deliver the regular De-
coration Day address. The appreciative
and fitting manner in which he spoke
OF the sacrifices made by the soldiers
OF the great war and the eloquent
strain in which he gave a word pic
ture OF the sanguinary struggle at
Gettysburg stamp HIS address as one
of the ablest OF those given on this
occasion for the entire fifteen years
of its observance.

The old school of neuropathologists
maintained that every case OF suicide
was a case OF insanity, but that the
ory has been abandoned because OF
the preponderance of testimony
against II. Acute mania sometimes
causes suicide. but in the large ma
GRITTY OF cases sheer iaziness and pol
troonery furnish the plain evidence OF
motive. The lazy theory is. therefore,
approximately correct. even though
II Is improperly restricted to hot
weather suicides. It really applies to
all.

The concert given Monday night,
June Ord in the College Chapel. by the
Harmonic Society has been pronounc-
ed by some who have been here many
years. probably the best ever given
by a Berean organization. The chorus
singing was accurate, enthusiastic and
very effective. and gives the highest
testimonial TO the hard work OF Di-
rector Rigby and the musical talent
gathered by the College. The orches-
ira, Ariel Quartet, Trio and Soloists
added much to the interest Of the

not on the program, were an I'M

Unloading Cargo Of Ice.

The big four-masted schooner Clara A.
Donnell, which arrived more than a week
ago, laden with ice from Booth bay, Me-,
for Alexandria, was locked there yesterday
and the unloading Of her cargo was started
The delay in docking the schooner was
caused by the fact that the new DOCK of
the Mutual Ice Company was not ready for
the reception of the big vessel, and dredg-
ing machine has been working on it almost
constantly for a week past endeavoring to
get it in condition to make berth for the
vessel. When the Donnell was chartered
to bring ice to Alexandria, the calculation
made was that she would arrive here about
this time. Instead Of that she arrived
week ahead of time, and found e ice-un-
loading bertfPwaS not ready, and there was
still some work to be done on the new I'M
loading plant, and on the big new ice house
Of the Mutual Company.
The schooner Donnell is drawing eighteen
feet Of water, but the tug William H.
Yerkes, jr., had no trouble in putting her
in the new dock, there being plenty of
water under her. The cargo of Ice aboard
the Donnell, is going into new Ice storage
plant, and will be used in the icing of
fruit and vegetable laden cars coming from
Florida and the south and on their way to
northern markets. The schooner Estelle
Phinney is on her way to Alexandria from
Maine with ice, and should arrive here
about the middle of the coming week. Be-
fore she arrives the Donnell will have
completed the unloading Of her cargo.

CHARGED WITH ABDUCTION.
Loretta Norman to Answer to ACCUSE
ton in Police Court.

ton in Police Court.
charge Of abductinR an infant was filed
in the Police Court this morning against
loretta Norman, colored, hearing Of the
case being deferred until next Tuesday, in
order to allow for further investigation
by Prosecuting Attorney Ralph Given. It
is alleged that Mrs. Norman secured a child
and withheld 1t from its mother, Rebecca
Watts, $40 H street southwest
Temporary insanity may be the plea
which will be entered in the case. At
torney Albert Sillers has been engaged for
the accused woman's defense. According
to the story told by Mrs. Watts, Loretta
Norman called upon her about two weeks
ago, and after getting acquainted, begged
to be allowed to take Mrs. Watts two
months-old baby to raise. Mrs. Watts re-
fused the strange request, and the woman
returned the next day and again begged
for the child. Mrs Watts finally consented
to let the caller keep the child for couple
at the end of that time.
In discussing the matter, 1t is stated by
the police, Mrs. Norman admits that the
child is not hers. She states that she had
a small baby several months ago, but that
it died very suddenly, and that she wanted
another to take its place. She says her
husband, who is In Montana, has sent her
a quantity Of baby clothes and trinkets for
the child, and she wanted a baby SO it
could wear the clothes.
The loss of her own child and her desire
for one, it is believed, acted so strongly on
Mrs. Norman's mind that she was willing
to resort to almost any means to procure
one. That is believed to account for her
action in taking Mrs. Watts babe.

COMPULSORY SUPPORT.
Details Of Case Handled by Associat-
ed Charities.

The new compulsory support law, which 1t
is claimed was enacted through the efforts
of representatives of the Associated Chari-
ties. goes beyond the similar legislation of
other communities in providing that men
who refuse to support their families may,
on commitment to the workhouse be made
to earn SO cents daily. to be paid to their
wives.
The story is told of a husband who had
fed to Maryland. leaving rent long over
due. His wife and four little children were
to be evicted the following day. Through
the Associated Charities the husband was
arrested and sentenced to the workhouse
for three months.
Every Sunday the woman visited the
prisoner, and the superintendent, Mr.. link
ham, made 1t a point to be present at the
interviews, giving the couple good advice.
and bringing the man to a realization of
his responsibility. During the last few
weeks Of his confinement the prisoner was
too sick to work with the gang. but. in
spite of the doctors orders that he be kept
quiet, he insisted that some light work
should be found for him, so that he could
earn for his family the so cents daily, which
is only paid when the man works. Since
his release he has been model husband.

COMMITS SUICIDE.
William Il. Henson Becomes Despond-
emit Over Protracted Illness. 4

Brooding over his sickness, which Nd
been protracted. and fearing he would be-
come burden, caused william n. Hen
sons mind to become so greatly disturbed
that he ended his life yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Agnes Henson, his wife, entered the
basement room at the family home. S04
Harvard street, and was greatly shocked
to find the body Of her husband suspended
from an iron pipe. The frantic woman
rushed from the house and called for as
sistance. her appeal being responded to by
Alter johnson, a neighbor.
Mr.. Johnson discovered that Mr.. Henson
had hanged himself with a piece of sash
cord. He lowered the body without delay,
and DR.. Jenner. living at ITO Rhode
Island avenue, was summoned, Mrs. Hen
son hoping that life was left in the body
and that the physician would be able to
effect resuscitation. The physician. how
ever, after working for about thirty min
utes, had to inform Mrs. Henson that life
was extinct
Coroner hewitt visited the house. made
an investigation and gave the necessary
certificate of death. The coroner was in
formed that Mr.. Henson, who was sixty
one years Of age, owned several houses on
Harvard street, and short while ago con-
that neighborhood, but his condition was
such that he had to surrender the con-
tract. 1t Is believed that the surrender
Of the contract caused a recurrence Of his
mental trouble, Henson having been a pa
tient at st. Elizabeth's Hospital for the
Insane, and his suicide was the result.
He leaves a widow and four children.

KILLED BY WEASEL.
Rock Creek Park Commission Loses
Six Rare Pheasants.

The movement which has been started
by local public-spirited citizens and the
Rock Creek Park commission to install rare
and wild birds in Rock Creek Park re-
ceived a severe blow yesterday when
weasel broke into the wired cage where
eight handsome English pheasants were
being kept during the winter and killed six
of them. Word to this effect was received
at the District building yesterday after
noon. Col. Biddle, Engineer Commissioner
and g. prime factor in the wild bird move
ment, expressed great regret over the loss
These birds were imported from England
and presented to the park commission by
DR.. Cecil French, who, it is said, originated
the idea of having wild birds in the park.
Next to DR.. French no one individual has
taken more interest in this movement than
has Commissioner Biddle. In speaking of
the birds Col. Biddle said they were the
finest looking pheasants he had ever seen.
"Since they were presented to US we have
made every effort to protect and care for
Them" he said. "They were growing ac-
customed to our climate and appeared to be
thriving and in good shape, and we had
hoped to release them from their cage next
month. However, we have two left and we
will see that they are protected from any
harm. An effort will be made to get some
new ones"

OFFICER UPHELD.
Judge Mullowny's Comment on De-
fiance of Authority.


"I want to say that 1 will uphold the
officers when they are resisted when max
ing lawful arrest in any case brought
before me- stated Judge Mullowny from
the bench of the United States branch of
the Police Court today. 'Of course, Off
GERS, like everybody else, make mistakes
once in a while, and they must take the
consequences. But a person has no busi-
ness to resist an officer and thus make a
court out of the public street. He has
his proper redress If the arrest is un-
lawful"
This statement was made at the conclu-
sion of the trial of Thomas Gildea, charged
with assaulting Policeman Mahaney of the
sixth precinct. In finding Gildea guilty
and imposing a sentence of 800 fine with
Imprisonment for six months, his honor
stated that he wished to commend the
officer for showing the discretion and for
bearance which he evidently did in this
instance.
The testimony indicated that Policeman
Mahaney~met Gildea on the street singing
war songs and creating a disturbance. His
wife was trying to get him home. The
officer advised Gildea to go home, telling
him that thereby he would avoid arrest.
Gildea l ed some Objectionable epithets
and repeated them so many times that the
latter finally arrested him. He resisted
and fought striking and kicking the officer,
but the latter did not strike blow, &C
cording to the statement of witnesses.
