most remarkable financial tour Of the
American continent ever made by a
European star. In one of her thirty
odd trunks she carried away with her

in 23S days, travelled $4,000 miles and
appeared in los different American and
Canadian cities. Despite her CT years,
her experiences in different climes,
would have taxed the vitality Of a
much younger woman, but appeared to
impose no hardship on her whatever.
She has not only played almost con-

energy to go on excursions, visit the
steel works at Homestead, Penn, for
example, an outing that kept her up

JOHN TURNER
BADLY HURT
NEGRO WAS STRUCK BY PIECE
OF TIMBER WHILE WORKING
ON STEAMSHIP GIoVAN ROSA
WAS UNCONSCIOUS FOR SOME
TIME.

John Turner, a negro, was seri-
ously, though not fatally, injured yes
terday afternoon when a piece of tim
Der struck him on the side of the
head, knocking him unconscious for
several hours. He was carried to his
home, TOT North GuilleE:arde street
and after being given medical atten-
ton by DR.. w. c. Dewberry, he was
revived, and it is not thought that his
injuries will result fatally. 81
Turner was working on the steamer
Giovan Rosa at the time of the acct
dent and the piece of timber which
knocked him down was a 6x9. When
the timber struck him, he fell face
forward and was unconscious for a
considerable length of time.
The patrol wagon carried him to his
home, where, after he was waited on
by DR.. Dewberry, he soon regained
consciousness, although he had not
spoken from the time the timber hit
him until alter the doctor had worked
with him.
The doctor stated that Turner was
suffering from a conclusion of the
brain, which would probably be alright
after a few hours rest.

MRS. ASTOR
EXPECTED BACK
SAID TO BE CHAGRINED OVER
TREATMENT IN ENGLAND SINCE
BEING SNUBBED BY QUEEN
MARY-NOT THOUGHT THAT
DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH
WILL RETURN TO NEW YORK.
Special to The Journal,

New York, June 24.-With the fire.
quent denials and reiterations of the
story cabled here almost daily concern
ing the proposed return to this country
of the Duchess of Marlborough and
Mrs. Ava Willing Astor, the divorced
wife of John Jacob Aston and sister
in-law of William Waldorf Astor, the
friends of the two women are much
confused. The cruX of all the reports
sent from England attribute to the two
divorced women a sense of humiliation
over the apparent disposition to treat
them slightingly because Of their do
nestle troubles. When she went
abroad last fall, Mrs. Astor, who was
reputed to have received a $1,000 900
settlement from Colonel Astor, an
nounced that she would make London
her home in the future. Now she is
said to have written to some Of her
old friends expressing her chagrin over
the way things are going in that city
since Queen Mary publicly snubbed
her and to be anxious to return here
permanently. If she does come back
with any such purpose in view, society
here is of the opinion that 1t will not
be long before she re-marries. This
it is believed would materially
strengthen her position in society and
furnish her with the protection she
now lacks. So far as the Duchess of
Marlborough Constance Vanderbilt) is
concerned, little stock is placed in the
cablegrams stating that she, too. is
going to make her home again in New
York. Should she do this, she would
be obliged to give up control of her
children, to whom she is devoted. This
she would not do for anything. So
that whether her social status abroad
is as agreeable as she would like II,
it is settled that she will stay there
and make the best Of it, however lar
ring 1t may be to her sense of pride.

streets for three days without food or

In 1900, all persons interested
in the cemetery we're requested,
through the local paper, to meet
at the opera house the first Fri
day in June. A number Of ladies
came together that day and or
ganized the Union Cemetery As
ISOLATION with fifty members.
Mrs. Eliza Welhausen was chosen
president, Mrs. Annie Haber-
macher vice president, Mrs. G.
II. Fato treasurer and Mrs. Hen
rietta Welhausen secretary. The
Office of both vice president and
secretary has changed hands sew
eral times, but there has been
but one president. The first
president has served so faithfully
that all recognized her executive
ability and would never consent
to a change. Mrs. Flato has
served the society almost as
faithfully, she having been in the
treasurer's Office all the time
except one year.

lished institution with good fin

The Sinner Cemetery--A
Brief History.

ABOUT twenty years ago, the
little town Of Sinner, then in its
infancy, realized the fact that it
was necessary to provide a rest
ing place for loved ones passing
away instead Of taking them to
other cemeteries for burial
The Il. of p. and Q. D. H. S.
lodges bought a tract Of land and
had it fenced for a burial place
for those passing from earth's
life to the great beyond.
In looking over an old copy of
the Gazette, published in 1898,
l find the editor speaks Of having
visited the cemetery that week.
He describes it as being divided
into three parts, K. of p, o. D.
H. S. and Catholic. He mentions
the grass having been moved
end some beautiful monument
erected. Continuing he says;
The first tomb as you enter the
enclosure is Mrs. Pfeil. Near
the middle of the K. Of p part
stands a marble shaft to the
memory of Ernst Meitzen, A
little further up from this grave
is a mound covered with flowers
where rests the remains of be-
loved Stella Flato, the flowers
speaks so eloquently of love and
sacred regard accorded her by
parents, friends and schoolmates.
The part owned by the K. of
p. lodge is next to the road has
eleven graves. Further on is the
o D. H. S. part. Here is buried
little Max VOTERS, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Me. VOTERS. Nearby
is buried Edwin Otto Koehler.
There are eight graves in this
part of the cemetery.
The third part is the Catholic
cemetery, enclosed to itself.
There are twenty graves here,
side by side, but only one marked
by stone. This is the grave of
Barbora Bartek."
This is what the cemetery was
eighteen years ago. Let us com
pare it with the cemetery of to-
day Not only is the grass kept
moved but blooming flowers and
shrubs greet the eye in every
part and many stately trees fur
nish shade and seem to invite you
to stop beneath their branches to
rest and mediate in that quiet,
peaceful place so sacred to all
who have loved ones there.

STIGMA OF RESPECTABILITY.
People Who Continuously Prate About
Being Extra Superfine.

People Who Continuously Prate About
Being Extra Superfine.
Can anything worse be said about
any people in these days than that they
are respectable? Nothing that we can
think of, except to say that they are
eminently respectable.
To be respectable implies SO much
that is utterly undesirable and alien to
our ideals that it almost always pro-
duces shudder.
When a man has tried everything
else and failed he then becomes re-
spectacle
Responsibility is in itself badge of
the commonplace, which. from the
standpoint of society, is tue unpardon-
able sin.
To be respectable implies that you
may be honest, not necessarily that
you are honest because you may pos
sibly be using your responsibility as
cloak The probability is that you
are not doing this, however, as most
people would rather be caught dishon-
est than to have the name OF being re-
spectacle.
A Respectable man IS aiuOSC AWAY .
hopeless. He is blind to his own con-
dition.
The chances are that you cannot edu-
cate him out Of it.
But there is always hope for every
human soul.
For example, If, unconsciously, with
out realizing bis danger, he has drifted
into being respectable and is thorough
~ ashamed Of it he may be saved.
Helping hands should Immediately be
extended to him. Life preservers and
poker chips and rum bottles should be
thrown at him. And the probability is
that he will swim ashore.
But If he once admits that he is re-
spectacle he Is lost.
Jails ought to be used exclusively to
harbor respectable people, where they
wouldn't be constantly boring US to
death.
One reason why SO much wickedness
is perpetrated is because there are so
many respectable people around, mad
dening others with their presence
