AT SOLDIERS FUNERAL

Special to The Herald.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, April 21.-By
the express wish of W. F. G. Schneider,
an eccentric old soldier, a band played
"Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight"
and "Ach, du Lieber Augustine" over
his grave at his funeral.
Following the services the friends
went from the cemetery to an uptown
saloon and there were treated with
beer, provided for by the dead man.
Prompted by curiosity, a great crowd
filled the modest little undertaking shop
where the funeral was held.
Hundreds followed the band to the
cemetery, while $50 Long, Mary"
Down Where the Wurzburger Flows"
and Not Because Your Hair is Curly
made the occasion seem like a picnic.
Schneider, before his death, placed
5000 in the hands of one of his friends,
and left directions how it should be
spent. He especially directed that no
preacher should be at the funeral.

"A few days ago a girl came in here
and called up some fellow, holding the

conversation was so soft as to be pos

Another clerk said: Eyes, we have
put on the lid. Yesterday a young man
came in here smoking a cigarette and
called up q girl. The result was some-
thing awful. Won't you let me kiss
you over the telephone, lover he asked.
And then he puckered up his cigarette

telephone that you could hear all over
the store.

merrily over to the counter and she

R0CKEFELLER'S NAME
TAKEN OFF BOULEVARD
Special to The Herald

Speclal TO Inc Herald.
CLEVELAND. April 2S-John d.
Rockefeller's name is no longer good
enough for the great boulevard he gave
the city. The city administration has
seen fit to change the name of the
upper driveway in Rockefeller park
from Rockefeller boulevard to East
boulevard, throughout the long stretch
from Gordon park to Wade park.
Residents in houses and apartments
along what has been Rockefeller boule-
ward are indignant. The change was
authorized some time ago, but those
most affected knew nothing of 1t until
signs bearing the new name were put
up within the last -ew days.
They consider the change an insult to
Mr. Rockefeller.
HE may be enough of business man

Camp Durbin. The fire bell was rung,
telephone calls gere sent all over the
county ordering the men to report, and
at o'clock in the morning of the same
night the entire company boarded a
Monon train and were at the camp a
little after daylight.
They were there before the camp had
been opened, and il order to enter had
to climb the fence.
The company is keeping up it's re-
markable record as to the manner of
the death of it's men. There have been
eight deaths, and all but two have been
from violent or unnatural causes.
