 REFUSAL OF BEEF

Washington May 24.-The navy de- partment telegraphed the Philadelphia navy yard today for a full report re- garding the rejection of 26.OO0 pounds of beef delivered yesterday by the con tractor for use on the naval transport Prairie Only 2000 out of a consign- ment of 2s,000 pounds were accepted
 The navy department today received an explanation of the rejection of the beef intended for the Prairie. Tn sub- stance, it was said that the meat was perfectly sound but was not frozen hard enough to meet the requirements for naval tropical cruising. There is little or no demand for this hard frozen beef for local use and as it takes some time to refrIgerate the meat sufficient ly to meet the naval requirements there naturally was q shortage in philadel- phia when this sudden demand was made.
 The marine expedition was not de- layed in any way nor will the men suffer for want of fresh meat. for 1t Is stated at the navy department that there is an ample supply in the cold storage plant at Guantanamo whither the Prairie Is bound.

Dr. w. F. Thetford

MT. and Mrs. J. A. VanHoose have re- turned from Boligee. where they went in response to telegram Wednesday morning announcing the death of Dr.. w. r. Thetford. the father-in-law of Mir. and Mrs. vanHoose's daughter. Mrs. Kennon Thetford.
 Members of his family, including his sons, w. r. Thetford of Montgomery and pr. Samuel Thetford of New Orleans, have been almost constantly at Dr. Thst- fords bedside for several weeks.
 The funeral services were held by the Rev. Dr. Walden of Eutaw at the resi- dence of pr. Kennon Thetford, where his fath and mother had been making their home for the past few years.
 One of the strildngly characteristic features of Dr. Thetford's burial was the fact that large number of his negro tenants gathered to bid a last farewell to the mortal remains of the man who had been so long their faithful friend. His body was carried from the residence to the waiting vehicle by six negroes who had been his tenants for over 90 years. These men walked by the side of tho vehicle reverently and affectionately carrying the casket through the iron gates fin front of the old church, lowered It into its last resting place.
