What Became Of Her?

Theodosia, the only daughter Of
Aaron Burr, was a woman Of superior
mental accomplishments and strong
affections. In her eighteenth year
she was married to Joseph Aston,
afterward governor of South Carolina.
She was devoted and adored wife,
The trial Of her father for treason and
his virtual Punishment not only de-
pressed her spirits but fearfully
wrecked her already feeble constitu-
ton, yet his disgrace in no way les
sened her affection. When he re-
turned from Europe she resolved to
visit him in New York. Embracing
from South Carolina on the Patriot.
or the thirteenth day of January, 1918,
she was never heard Of afterward.
The schooner may have fallen into
the hands Of pirates; but as heavy
gale was experienced for several days
soon after leaving Georgetown, the
probability is that the craft sunk.

State Rail Board Acts.

Milwaukee, May 19-The Wisconsin
state railroad commission took hand
In the clearing up of the war shortage
and freight tieup which is interfering
with shipments throughout the coun-
try and threatens a shutdown of many
industrial plants. The commission re-
ceived a telegram from the interstate
commerce commission at Washington,
urging that it cooperate with the cap
ital body in putting an end to the con-
gestion. Similar kilograms were sent
to other state rail boards. Daily re-
ports of car movements were asked
and a complete report on the situation
in the state of Wisconsin and on lines
which pass through the state The
commission Immediately took steps to
comply with the appeal.

KenOsha, May 19.-Armed with

here, and attempted to force the own

Silade of paving bricks. Stern ducked
behind the counter. One brick went

and when he bObbed up from behind
the showcase two of the man had

CHARGED Minister Danced.

Fond du Lac, May 19.-The sight Of
the minister lying on his stomach eat
ing ice cream at a church social was
not very edifying or an example for
the young, is the opinion of Frank
Gruett, defendant in $4,000 SANDER
suit which Rev. G. G. Gerlach of RO-
sendale is pressing against him in cir
cult court More than this, Rev. Mr..
Gerlach, according to the testimony Of
Mr.. Gruett, danced twO-step in
church, and when Miss Selma Gruett
detected his shuffiing feet the minis
ter held up his finger and said 'pst."
The charges preferred against the
minister by Gruett, and probed by a
SynOdcal committee at ROSendale
March % last, which were of highly
sensational character were read to the
jury. The pastor was charged in that
document with unseemly conduct at
the post office, where the defendant
said he was "acting up before three
old maids" Mr. Gruett wrote a letter
to Rev. Mr.. Frichter, president of the
Iowa synod, in which he charged that
the synodical investigating committee
"whitewashed" the pastor. The wit
ness said the hearing was not conduct
ed according to the word of God or
public Justice" Rev. Mr.. Gerlach
brought suit after a board of inveSti-
gators of the church completely ex-
Onerated him.

JAVA "LAND OF VOLCANOES"
Country Has From Earliest Times
Been Devastated by Turbulent
Forces Of Nature.

Java, with territory about equal to
New York state. has more volcanoes
than any area Of like size, and yet
has more inhabitants than the states
Of New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Ohio and Texas combined. A bulletin
Of the National Geographic society finds
that estimates Of the active and eI-
tinct craters range from 100 to 15O.
"Everywhere in Java, in the huge
crater lakes, In assures that now are
river beds, even in ancient temples,
half finished when interrupted by some
fiery CONFUSION, are evidences Of cata-
clysmic forces-such turbulent forces
as now are In continuous hysteria in
the valley of the Ten Thousand
Smokes In Alaska and break their
crusted surface cage internationally in
1aca." The late eruption Of the Klot
Tor Kalut) volcano cost the lives OF
10000 natives, destroyed 10000 acres
Of crops by the flow Of hot mud, and did
millions Of dollars damage outside by
the falling ashes. This devastation,
AV"SScI, was uiiu CUlHpoISu Win LAO
violent upheaval of 1883, when Mother
Nature planted a Gargantuan Internal
machine on the Java doorstep at Kra-
kaoa. The terrific defamation was
heard In Australia. as far away as Ell
Paso Is from New York, much Of the
island was blown into the air four
times as high as the highest mountain,
and the hole left under water where
most Of the island had been is so deep
that a plumb line to touch bottom must
be twice the length of the Washington
monument. The isolation lessened the
toll Of lives, many Of the $500 deaths
having been due to the tidal waves
that flooded distant shores.

Peculiar Animals.

The rabbit, or hyrax, which is found
In Africa and Syria. Is an interesting
and comparatively little-known ami
NAL. Although 1t has boots, the sole
of each foot Is cup-shaped, so that
when it presses the edges Of hoof
against smooth surface 1t can form
a vacuum under the hoof by raising
the center. Thus. using it's feet as
suckers, It climbs trees with surpris-
ing facility. The large-eyed, lemur-
Ike creature called tarsier, a native
of the Malay islands and Of the Phil
ippines, Is equally interesting. It's
toes end In suckers with which 1t can
climb even the smooth stems Of bam-
boo.-Youth's Companion.

Meaning Of the Name Ida.

Ida and Ada are practically SYM
onymous. In early times, however. Ada
was believed to be derived from Adah,
meaning ornament, and the name
Adah was given to the VIII of Lamech
in the Old Testament. But later ety.
mological author<ies believe that Ada
is merely a Latinized form of Fad,
meaning happy or rich, and the same
as the German Ida. Ida's gem is the

AN APPRECIATED OFFICIAL

The following article, attacking
Joseph Kaufman, appeared in the
OrofinO Tribune of January 18th:
While it is not the intention to
make this article personal the Tri-
bune reserves the right to say, for
purely political reasons and the &C.
onomic questions involved, that if
Joseph Kaufman devoted less time
to manipulating his political webs
he could probably reduce the ex-
pense of conducting the county aud
itor's office about $500 annually
by doing more work himself at the
desk for the $500 per year he
draws from the taxpayers whom he
seeks to advise on political ques-
tions."
The Clearwater Republican is
particularly pleased, and in spirit
absolutely free from the slightest
degree of political bias, to most en-
phatically defend the conduct of the
auditors office. Of Clearwater Coun-
ty by Joseph Kaufman, during his
entire incumbency 1t is we'll known
fact that during the eorly period of
the county's establishment, Joseph
Kaufman stood like watch dog,
guarding the Taxpayers interests
against questionable methods and
INSCRIPTIONS practices or the dom
mating powers in county affairs,
and by his admirably firm stand
for honest county government, has
unquestionably saved the county
all, and more than he has received
In salary. In speaking of Joseph
Kaufman, prominent citizen and
republican of Clearwater County
said: Never in some dozen years,
as public official, of our county,
has there ever been a single sus-
picion of dishonesty charged to Joe
Kaufman. His honesty and in
tegrity are above reproach, and his
strict attention to his public duties
have won him the coincidence and
support of great majority of the
