Osborne Held in
Connection with
Fremont Murder
Blair Man Alleged to Have Been Seen
with Dead Man-Can Remember
Nothing of Movements.

FREMONT. Neba Aug. i5.-(speclal Tele-
81 am.)-Drunkenness is the excuse siven by
George Osborne Of Blair for his poor mem
Dry OF his movements in the Fremont rail-
road yards Friday night when John Hector
was murdered. Osborne remembers his
visit in Fremont up to a point where he IL
alleged to have talked with Hector and an.
other man, IN which conversation he sug-
gested to Hector that the two go down to
the yards after the saloons closed and con-
tinue drinking. OF this conversation. or
Of any such meeting Osborne can remember
nothing according to his testimony before
Sheriff Bauman and County Attorney Cook
this morning. He admits walking through
the railroad yards Friday evening to catch
train for Arlington. but he remembers no
details Of his trip.
Osborne was arrested at Blair last even
ing and brought to Fremont by carriage,
reaching here at $3.50 o'clock this morning.
He will be held for the inquest tomorrow.
Osborne Is a son Of Mr.. and Mrs. W. d.
Osborne Of Blair and has been in police
court for drunkenness and fighting on sew
eral occasions.
What became OF 500 which Hector had at
Hooper Thursday is one question OF the
case. Marshall Crawford Of that village
claims the peddler had near that amount
then, but he had only 16 cents when the
body was found Saturday morning.

Dies in Far East;
Cause unknown
0mahan Passed Away July 30 in Line
of Duty-Family Just Now
Informed.

DR.. Jean c. Whlnnery eldest son Of DR..
]. @. Whinnery of Omaha, died July 20
in the Philippines. Information to this
effect was learned here yesterday for the
first time by relatives. A telegram to the
War department at Washington brought
little additional information except that DR..
Whinnery died in line of duty"
DIR. Whinnery's father, DR.. ]. C. whln-
merry, will not know until today of the
death of his son. DR.. Whinnery, sr., has
been living on homestead in the north
western part of the state. and it was not
possible TO reach him by wire. But he
was due to meet his wife at ONell today
and the news will then be given to him.
It is probable that Miss Gertrude Whin-
merry, a sister, who is in the Philippines, is
also ignorant of her brothers death. Miss
Whinnery accompanied her brother who
is a contract dental surgeon of the army
to the islands on his last trip and herself
entered upon work as government school
teacher. Her station was 800 miles from her
brothers, both being in the island Of Luzon
DR.. Jean c. Whinnery was a graduate
of the University of Pennsylvania, and be-
came connected with tn army Immediately
upon finishing professional studies. He had
planned to give up army work as soon
as this term was ended and to come to
Omaha to reside.

WASHINGTON WAS A MARSHAL
First President of the United States
Held Commission i'm the
French Army.

The presentation by the state Of Vir-
GINA to the republic of France of a repro
duction of Houdon's famous statue of
Washington is interesting in many ways.
The commission OF Virginians who will
make the presentation to the French min
lister of foreign affairs will have a pleas
ant duty to perform. Washington was not
only held in the highest esteem by the
French people during his lifetime and in
the intervening years. but there is good
authority for tho belief that he held COM
mission in the French army as an officer
of the highest rank-that of marshal. In a
forthcoming history of Frederick county
Nd, the evidence in support of this is
given. This evidence is in the form of a
letter from Mr.. c. W. Park Curtis to Col.
