Inquiries REGARDING the Dead.

John Phiefer. a farmer in the
town of White6eld, was in the city
last Thursday to find out all he
could regarding Henry w. Phiefer,
the stranger who died here under
such mysterious circumstances on
August 22. Thru a letter which he
received from the parents of the
deceased in Chicago, Mr.. Phiefer
learned that the stranger was a
nephew of his, and the Chicago REL
atives had asked him to send them
any or all the information that he
might secure regarding the case.
1t seems that the mother of the de-
ceased is doubling that it was her
son, but from what Mr.. Phiefer
could find out here the identity is
clearly established.
Mr.. Phiefer asked for copies of
the Tribune containing accounts of
the case, and these were forwarded
to Chicago, together with letter
from Mr.. Phiefer.

The aurora borealis. or northern light. Is something that we have all heard about. but very few. perhaps. can give any explanation of it.

 marks the birth of the great and good
 George Washington, and will remain for two full days thereafter. He also de-
 mands Queen of Love and Beauty.
 with three maids of honor to accompany
 him on his parade through the streets
 The task of selecting the most beautiful of all the beautiful maidens in Cana
 nca, placed the arrangement committee in dilemma. Finally, after much re- flection, it was decided to let the young
 men show. by voting to whom this honor really belongs All of the male inhab- itants, whether naturalized or not, have a perfect right to vote--the only quail. hcation being necessary is ten cent ticket. No one will know who is voted for or by whom the ballot is cast, so married men can enjoy the contest as well as those who are enjoying single blesscdness. The carnival will really begin on Sunday the 2lst, instant, but the king will not arrive until the next night. It will last until the 24th. Erboc is Cobre reversed, and is Spanish for copper, the king whose choicest domin- jon lies in the great southwest.
 The arrangement and the reception committee consists of R. l.. O'Neill, William Bernstein. Teodoro Maldontez is secretary of the committee.
