Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph A. Weinand, 1856
North Fifth street, was crushed out
beneath the wheels Of "a street car
nearly in front of the home of her
parents.
The little child was run down by
a southbound car as she was cross

body of her little child lying on the
track. Friends and neighbors. how

The president stated that he would
come direct to Washington after land

quietly to Washington where a mass
of executive business awaits him.
The president signified his willing
ness to march at the head of parade
