prosecutor information that strength
ems the belief that the slayer of Ros-
enthal did not spring from the enmity
of gamblers. Shapiro admits that

was told that policemen had knowl-

and that nobody was in any danger.
What Rose told deputy police COM

house for the eleven O'Clock SER
vices. The sermon was one Of
the finest we have ever heard in
Texas or any where else for that
matter. We wish every man

would have lifted them to a
higher plane of christian living
and usefulness. The subject
was: The Battle Between
Faith and Unbelief."

The Buriai Of the Maine

About the first Of March there
will be an impressive ceremony
far from the habitations Of men
and the burial ola giant whose
strength was dedicated TO de-
struction and whose life ended
in the fullness Of tragedy and
grief. The clear waters of an
Italian river flow over the hidden
grave of Alaric. the Goth, also
an embodiment Of force and fury
in the world and no man knows
his burial place. So the blue
waves of the Mexic Gulf will
roll above the famous dead whose
uncoffined. dreamless sleep will
begin next month, and only the
marine charts in the national
archives will inform future
generations " hat part Of the sea
has been made sacred to all
Americans By glorious sepulture.
The historic giant Of oaks and
steel. the ill-starred battIesbip
Maine, will be shortly lowed to
the open sea and sunk in deep
water off the coast Of Cuba.
whose progress toward liberty
and light the awful tragedy en-
acted &C her ocean gates hurried
to happy consummation. Never
has the most pompous funeral of
king, prince or potentate on land
typitied as much 10 the world as
burial at sea of this rent and
riven corpse of iron will shadow
forth, If we accept the dictum of
present-day philosophy that all
engines of destruction are design
ed TO prevent wars or to pros
ecute honorabIy and righteously
those only that cannot be pre-
vented. Ii will solemnly MEM
oralize the attainment of price
less freedom by one nation and
the honorable and glorious
of another: for our
record in the evolution of Free
Cuba forms one of the brightest
and most heartening pages of
history, so far as history has
been written. The great silent
charnel house of the deep will
thus hide the remaining scars of
a conflict that led to better things
and the concealing oceans, in
calm and gale and Storm"
will continue 10 symbolize the
eternity into which all human
Institutions sink at last, aad
which should keep men remind
