DAN DAILY QUITS MARINES
Famous War Hero Who Won Two
Medals Will Go Into
Business

New York.-First Sergt Dan Daily,
undoubtedly the best known man in
all the services with the exception Of
Sergt. York of Argonne fame, has been
placed on the inactive list Of the Ma
rine Corps reserve.
DAILY won two medals of honor for
valor in the Boxer rebellion and in
the capture of Fort Riviere in Haiti.
and is said to be the only man in
all the services who holds two medals
of honor.
In the world war his feats of ex-
ceptional bravery won for him the me-
daille militaire and the croix du guerre
from France, and the distinguished
service cross from Gen. Pershing. His
passing from the active list to go into
business removes from the marines
their most picturesque of the old
school soldiers.

Priest Solves Mystery
of Virgins 'Apparition'
supposed Miracle I, Found To
BE Shadow Of Statue Of
the Madonna

METZ. Jan. %. Excitement among
thc people of Noveant, small village
Ncar here, over the supposed appear
ancc Of the Virgin near a churchyard
has been calmed by an investigation
conducted by religious authorities. 1t
WAS said the apparition appeared at a
certain time each day, seeming to stand
or the steps Of little villa. and much
clcdence was given to the stories of
those who claimed to have witnessed
the phenomenon.
Father Bentz, who made careful
inquiry. posted himself one evening at
u point where others claimed to have
seen the Virgin and at once solved the
mystery. He found two trees some
distance away which. just at sunset
cast shadow presenting clear out
line of a statue of the Madonna, the
resemblance being very striking.

the case when it was explained TO him,
said:
