She was the mother Of j. w.
Leonard ard Rev. W. A. Leon
ard, members OF Encampment
Lodge No. A, L. Q. O. It.
She lived to see more than 81
summers The changes of times
aud faces from. her girlhood to
death must have been many.
This aged mother seen th & roses
bloom and fade away summer
after summer, and the leaves
fall thick upon the ground.
She was a member Of tile NJ. e.
church South about 63 years ago.
We believe her thousands Of
prayers she prayed since the day
lshe joined the church Of her
youthful choice has been realized
to Ter fullest JOY. She Was laid
to rest BY her husband, who was
a faithful christian, What a
meeting il tue skies has never
yet been told in her long stay OH
earth.
She passed by a many fallen
castle Of human beings.
We the mombers Of Camp No.
A, DO most deeply sympathize
with our bereaved brothers.
Your mother has gone to heav-
Ell. She is u ct now like us, weep
ing. God has taken from his
girdle, his great handkerchief,
aud wiped away all tears from
her eyes; and we all may live
throughout the ceasless ages Of
eternity in the light Of our bios
sed Lord and with our friends,
in that happy land Of the soul,
far away. May all Of her chill
dron, as they are called to cross
tho river Que by one, meet her
again in the skies.
Heaven and earth is hanging
in Gods hands. Lifo and death
are awaiting his commands.
With the christian ali is bright.

REAL DETECTIVE
STORY TOLD ON
WITNESS STAND

Chicago H., July 5.---.A real detec
tive story was told in the lumber
| trust" hearing here today by MaN
A. Dittbermer. employed by Mime
apolis age.s'.
Dittbermer related that he was in
structed in 1908 to shadow certain
consignments of lumber to various
Chicago mail order houses, his partic-
ular object being to ascertain what
retail lumber dealers were selling to
mail order houses,
Within two months certain retail
ers became suspicious that they We're
being watched and Dittbermer was re-
moved to this angle of the case in
addition to his first assignment. He
had little trouble in discovering that
detective named Kenyon was at
work, posing as a gypsum salesman,
Dittbermer saw that Kenyon ad-
dressed mail to p. o. Box 536 Chica-
go.
The owner of this box. he said, he
found to be we'll known detective
agency which he learned later was
engaged in gathering evidence to
show that the retail dealers were in
combination in restraint of trade
as was subsequently charged by the
federal government.
Dittbermer then obtained a position
as an operative for the second agen-
cy whose work was inimical to that
of his original and real employer.
In this way he testified, he got
hold of all the evidence gathered by
employer No. 2 and turned it over to
nis own agency.

DEMOCRATS Want GAG
RULE PASSED
INSIST ON CAUCUS PASSING RESOLUTION
BINDING EVERY DEMOCRAT TO VOTE
FOR TARIFF BILL WITHOUT CHANGE.

Washington, d. c., July 5.--Senate
Democrats caucussed again today to
put the finishing touches on the tariff
bill preparatory to it's being formally
reported to the senate next week
Practically all the revisions of the
house rates have been downward.
Chairman Simmons of the finance
committee hopes to see the bill pass
ed by the senate and signed by the
president before September 1. Today
he made this statement:
"The caucus has sustained the COM
mittee in all it's actions on the tariff
bill except one or two minor matters.
am satisfied that the bill as APPROX
ed by the caucus will pass the senate
and with some notifications as may
be made in conference between the
two houses, will be enacted into law"
Opposition to rule binding all
Democrats to support the tariff bill
without change forced an adjourn
ment of the senate caucus today un-
til Monday.
Only 81 of the 81 Democrats were
present and several senators objected
to the caucus taking final action to
bind it's members when so few were
present
Adjournment was taken to o'clock
Monday afternoon when an effort will
be made to secure full attendance
Of Democrats. The time when the |
wool schedule shall take effect is !
still unsettled. Many Democrats are |
advocating that it go into effect i'm /
when the bill becomes law /
kilograms were sent to all absent |
Democratic senators to be in Wash I
ngton for the caucus at which the {
binding resolution will be pressed to
a vote. The caucus decided finally /
.oday that the bill shall go into effect
except those schedules
where other effective dates are fixed.

DISSERTATION
OF NATIONAL
FLAGS
STARS AND STRIPES TRAMPLED
UNDER FOOT AT WINNIPEG and
AMERICANS HAUL DOWN MEXI.
CAN FLAG AT TUCSON.
INTERNATIONAL
COMPLICATIONS MAYBE

! Washington, D. c., July 1.-Two in
ciGents involving dissertations of ma
/ tional flags which marked celebrations
yesterday are expected to form the
subject of complaints to the state de-
rartment though so far nothing has
! Leen heard from them
i. The affair at Winnipeg, Manitoba,
! Involving the trampling of an Ameri-
can flag at a British parade probably
cannot be made the basis of an official
protest for the reason that interila-
tional law does not guarantee the pro-
lection Of flags of foreign country ex.
cepting where they are displayed over
{ ificial buildings.
In the Tucson, Arizona, incident,
however, where the flag over the Mexi-
can consulate was torn down the state
department probably will feel obliged
10 require the local authorities to
the Mexican consul if that can be
done without involving any official
recognition of the Huerta government !
which appears to be the great appre-
this juncture.
Americans Guilty.
