BEGINS TO ARM
MERCHANT SHIPS
Other Powers Notified. viii Respect Sub.
marine Right Of Visit and Search.
Preparations Under Way.

Washington, March 12.-Final
orders to the naval gunners who
will work the guns on armed Am
erican merchant ships defying the
German submarine zone were
framed today at a conference be-
tween Secretary of State Lansing
and Secretary ofthe Navy Daniels.
The orders will be transmitted
directly to the gun crews by the
secretary of the navy. They pro-
vide in detail for compliance with
the United States in the whole
long international controversy ov.:
er the use Of submarines against
merchant craft.
The merchant ships gunners
will fire at sight on any subma-
rine approaching in a threatening
manner, but will respect the right
OF the submarine to visit and
search" for contraband if any eff!
fort is made to exercise that right.
Further than this statement the
orders will be kept absolutely
secret.
The final form of the orders to
gunners was framed after the state
department had communicated to
every representative OF a foreign
government in Washington the
intention of United States to arm
its merchant vessels. These two
formal actions cleared away the
last formality necessary before
American commerce resumes its,
place upon the sea. The navy de-
partment and the war department
at once settled down to the vigor-
GUS prosecution Of all steps toward
placing the nation on a war basis
to meet whatever the submarine
controversy may next bring forth.

GETS UP AFTER
GRAVE IS DUG
Ms. Garner Falls Into Trance and Thought
Dead. Casket and Robe Prepared.
Grave Caves IN.

Undertaken Eskridge reports the
most unusual burial case to come
to his attention during his several
years experience as an undertaken.
On last Thursday Grandma
Garner, widow Of the late Jim
Garner, was thought to have ex-
pired suddenly at the home of her
daughter Five miles west of Green
field. Mr.. Eskridge was given an
order for the casket and robe; the
boys were on their way back to
Greenfield Friday morning with
the robe; the coffin had been pre-.
pared and parties were at work
digging the grave at Corinth,
when word came to all, except the
grave diggers, that Mrs. Gardner
was not dead. She got up with
the balance OF the family Friday
morning, but died about 1Oo o'clock
that morning. The young men
were on their way back to Dres-
den to return the robe, but were
stopped at ESQ. Fonzo Higgs' and
ordered back home, being inform
ed Of the death Of Mrs. Garner.
The old lady, a sufferer Of heart
trouble, seems to have gone off in
a kind Of trance. There was not
the least visible signs of life and
all preparations were made for the
interment. But she revived FRI
day morning and got up.
This funeral was crowded with
other unusual occurrences. While
it was only a distance of about
nine miles from the place where
she died to Corinth, it was neces-
sarv to make a trip OF at least
twenty-four miles to reach the
burial place. The road between
Sharon and Greenfield was re-
ported impossible and the corpse,
in the hearse, was brought to
Dresden, reaching here late in the
afternoon, the remains carried to
the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. T. E.
Taylor for the night and next day
Sunday on out to Corinth. In
the meantime, the heavy rains
had filled the grave and Weaked
the banks or sides. The water,
however. was baled out, and when
the casket was being lowered into
the grave the bank cayed in and
one gentleman was precipitated
into the grave on top the casket.
Thus it was that before death
Mrs. Gamers casket and robe
had been prepared, the casket en-
route to her late home and the
grave dug.
