RenutifY the Cemetery.

EDITOR REFLEoToR As spring ap-
proaches and many Of us are planning
to improve and make more beautiful
our homes, 1t brings to mind the fact
that there is another spot upon which
our minds should be conferred.
Our cemetery, although beautiful
at times has not had the attention
that should have been given to it.
Although splendidly located, 1t has
not been improved and beautitied SO
as to compare favorably with those
OF many other cities the size OF Abb
lene. would not want to give the
impression that the Abilene cemetery
has been neglected for such is not the
case, but all that could be done to
improve it has not been done. A
good many people own ground IN the
cemetery but as yet have buried none
Of their dear ones and consequently
have not learned TO love the spot.
In fact have given It no particular
attention at all. In some cases al-
lowing it to grow up in weeds or tall
grass.
Would it not be well to remember
that the ground adjoining yours be-
longs to friend or neighbOr who has
buried therein those who are dearer
to him even than his own life and who
would be much please to have the
surroundings made beautiful.
In such cases little work on your
part would be accepted as kindness
and would be appreciated more than
you suppose.
Last year the association placed
water pipes through the principal
streets Of the cemetery and at a very
small expense the water, which is
abundant, can be conducted to every
lot. There is no charge whatever for
the use Of the water, the only ex-
pense being the cost Of laying a small
pipe from the stout one and
where a number Of people join to-
gether In this, the cost is very small
indeed. There is no reason why
every lot should not be equipped with
water and kept green throughout the
entire summer.
With the present facilities fol
watering the ground, flowers can b
kept blooming even during the dry
and hot weather and with proper
care on the part Of the lot Owneri
our cemetery can be made place o.
beauty far exceeding anything thai
we have heretofore known.
Let Us not wait one for the othei
but al Join In this work OF love foi
our dear ones who have gone beiorl
and am sure We viii be exceedingly
pleased with oar labors.

Chicago. March 11.--John Alexander
Dowie died at 7:45 Saturday morn
ing, at Shiloh House, Zion City.
There were present with him when
he died, only Judge D. N. Barnes
and two personal attendants 1t had
been his custom TO hold religious
services every Sunday afternoon in
the parlor of Shiloh House. About
$50 of his original followers remained
faithful and attended these services
Dowie always wore his apostolic robes
and made characteristic address.
Five weeks ago these meetings ceased
and Dowie appeared no longer in
public. The Sunday meetings, how
ever, were still held by his adherents.
Mrs. Dowie, Judge Dowie, the pro-
phets father, and his son who are
at Ben McDhu, Mich, have been noti-
fled and were expected at Zion City.
Judge Barnes, who was at the bedside
Of Dowle, is a member of Volivas
council, but remained friendly to
Dowie, believing him to be insane and
not responsible for his actions,
Dowle's wife, father and son held the
same view and 1t istherefore believed,
though they were estranged, that
they will attend the funeral.
John Alexander DOwie was born in
Edinburgh, Scotland, May 25, 1S47. In
1860 his parents removed to Adelaide,
Australia, where for seven years the
youth was clerk in business house.
Here Dowie developed the commercial
instinct that served him well later In
life. He saved enough money during
this period to return to Edinburgh at
the age of 20. tn .tska a five-years

TALKED ON STATES RIGHTS
Senator Beveridge Defends q Cen
tralized Government.


New York, MArch 7!-Senator BeVor
idge. addressing q banquet Of the In
diana association here wednesday
night, made q vigorous defense OF .
central government a. against >tne
doctrine Of states rights.
"The states" he said, could mot
make internal improvements so the
nation made them; the states could
not prevent the scattering Of obscene
literature no the nation did it; the
states could not suppress lotteries--so
the nation did It; the states could not
end the poisoning Of the people by
adulterated food-so the nation is end
ing It; the states could not compel the
sanitation Of packing houses, the IN
spectIon of meats-so the nation 10
compelling it; the state could not pre-
serve the country's forests-so the ma
tIon is preserving them; the states
could not irrigate the arid west-so
the nation Is working that glorious and
beautiful miracle; the states can not
end the murderous infamy Of child Ia
bor--so the nation is going to end 1t;
and this for the saving Of the nation.
The states can not control the buc-
cancers of businsss-so the nation "a
going to control them, and this for the
benefit Of the enormous majority OF
all, business men who are not buo-
cancers.
THE constitution is our Ordinance
Of national life, and not the articles
Of our national death. 1t was meant
TO free the hands Of the American
people and not to shackle them. Mar
shall 90 interpreted 1t in the courts;
Lincoln so interpreted II in the eoun-
en chamber; Grant 30 interpreted II In
the battlefield, and today, Roosevelt
Is following in their footsteps, and
thus obeying the will Of the American
people"

Topeka, March 11.-Because the

will be passed by the present legisla'
ture. The house has until Monday
night at II O'Clock to accept the re'
port of the second conference COM
mittee which was favorable to the
senate's milage book plan but so
many members went home Saturday
that 1t is doubtful II a quorum can
be secured for that purpose or to
pass the miscellaneous appropriation
bill which is yet hanging fire.
More than go warrants were Issued
by the speaker Of the house OF repre-
sentatives, ]. s. Simmons, Saturday
night for members of the house. Each
warrant required that the members be
returned to Topeka at once and an
swer to their names at 9 o'clock Mon
day morning. The warrants were
not served, but kilograms were sent
to each member by d. B. Dyer, ser
geantatarms stating that the war
rants had been issued and for the
members to return at once or the ser
geantatarms would be sent after them
and the members would have to pay

AMONG HIS NEIeHBoas.
Lincoln psraded In High Hat and .
Linen Buster.

Lincoln paraded In a High Hat and
Linen Buster.
While stamping" in Illinois il
1860 Carl Schurz had an appoint
ment to address an afternoon opel
air Meeting in the capitol grounds
in Springfield, Mr.. Lincoln's place
of residence. In "Reminiscences Of
a Long Life" Mr.. Schurz tells Of
! being invited TO dine with Mr.. Lin.
coin and of his impressions of the
candidate for the presidency of the
| United States.
"At the table we conversed about
the campaign, and his genial and
simple hearted way of expressing
himself would hardly permit me to
remember that he was a great man.
He was in the best of humOr, and we
laughed much.
The day was blazing not. Mr.
Lincoln expressed his regret that |
had to exert myself in such, "a tenn
perat1re and suggested that | make
myself comfortable. He made him
self comfortable indeed in a way
which surprised me not little, but
which was thoroughly characteristic
of his rustic habits. When he pre-
scented himself for the march to the
capitol grounds observed that he
had divested himself of his waist
coat and put on as an upper gar
ment a linen duster, the back of
which had been marked by repeated
perspirations and looked somewhat
like a rough map of two hemi.
spheres. On his head he wore
well battered 'stOyepipe' hat which
had seen several years of hard sery-
ice. In this attire he marched
with me behind the brass band, and
after us came the local campaign
committee and the Wide Awakes.
Of course he was utterly uncol-
scious Of his grotesque appearance,
Nothing could have been further
from his mind than the thought
that the world conspicuous distinc,
ton bestowed upon him by his NOM
nation for the presidency should
have obliged him to put on dignity
among his neiohbors.
"Thosc neighbors who from the
windows and the sidewalks on that
hot afternoon watched and cheered
him as he walked by in the process |
sion behind the bras band NAV |
have regarded him, the future pres
ident, with new feeling Of rever.
entail admiration or awe, but he
before and among them
entirely lmconcerned, as if nothing
had happened, and he nodded to
his acquaintance as he recognized
them in the crowd with a How are
you, Dan? ? and so on, just as he
had been accustomed to do"
