First Bonus Victim Laid To Rest To-day

House and into the ellipse, circling the presidential mansion. Then it proceeded to Arlington, by circuit ous route. With permission of General Pelham D. Glassford, eu- perintendent of police, the process sion followed the winding route that Hushka's last march might lead him past the place where sat the commander-in -in-chief of the na- tion's military forces.
 A military escort from Fort Myer met the cortege at Arlington and escorted the hearse to q spot about 100 yards from the waiting grave.
 Eight veterans lifted the flag draped casket gently from the hearse. and bore 1t to the grave. Before them walked Father Hur- ney in the robes of his church. Behind them came Mrs Frances Krivenka of Chicago, until three years ago Hushka's wife, on the arm of Hshka's brother, Charles J. Hushka, followed by other kins- folks.
 Commander Walter Waters of the E. E. F. and Mrs Waters. and
 i've men from Waters headQuar- ters, followed.
 Ten paces away a firing squad of
 seven men from Troop E. Third Cavalry, took up their positions.
 They were men from the very com pany which had been called into Washington to drive the bonus marchers from the city after Hush- ka had been killed.
 Veterans held over the grave the American flag. The priest pro- nounced the burial ritual of the Catholic church.
 "Dust thou art" he spoke, "to dust thou shalt return.
 Ready, aim, fire," snapped sergeant in charge of the firing squad, and the rattle of the mus ketry echoed among the crosses. Three times he gave the com
 mand and three times the nations army fired its salute to honor comrade who had died.
 A sergeant major stepped to the
 head of the grave. On his bugle he
 blew taps.
 The. crowd turned away and quietly moved back to Washington. The B. E. F. had buried the hrst of its dead, with the nations mil- itary forces paying tribute.

Washington, Aug 2.-(UP)- The bonus expeditionary force buried the first of It's dead to-day with the salute of the United States army.
 William J. Hushka of Chicago, shot to death in q battle with police Thursday afternoon preceding the army's evacuation of B. D. F. camps, was lowered into a grave at Arlington National cemetery, there to rest among the heroes of the nations wars.
 Beyond a hill a quarter of a mile away from Hushka's grave, rests the unknown soldier. And over the knolls of pleasant Airing ton, once the home of Robert D. Lee, stand almost countless cross es, each marking the place where some man who has died after serving his country.
 Fifteen hundred people followed the pilgrimage to Arlington. In a cortege many blocks long, they oircled the White House. There policemen and guards, placed days ago to protect the president against the army of which Hushka was a member, removed their hats or stood at attention as the hearse passed, bearing the first of the dead of the Battle of Washing ton."
 The president, at the moment, was discussing with his cabinet the affairs of state and the punish ment for rioting bonus men.
 The rites began at funeral par1 Tor where the Rev Father Francis J. Hurnsy spoke words of consola- ton for Hushka's family. Hushka had died fighting for a cause he had believed was just, the priest said. He had served his nation. Now he was going to rest with the nations honored dead.
 The chapel was crowded. Hun dreds stood in the streets outside Only the family, . few friends, rep. resentatives of the Veterans of For. eign Wars; the American Legion and the B. E. F. were within the little room where Hushka's body lay in a plain grey casket, lighted by candles.
 l. Then the casket was carried to g hearse by members of the Ameri. can Legion and the Veterans o1 Foreign Wars. Scores of automo- piles fell in line. Slowly the cor tese moved towards the White

Pastimes Win

A record was created in the Fulton Park Playground Midget Baseball League this morning which gives evidence of standing for some time when George Sloss pitched his Pastimes to 27 to 0 victory over the Pirates in a nine inning tilt. The winners banged the offerings of Griffin to all corners of the lot and scored in every inning.
 In the other league game St Mary's were defeated by the North Squares in an interesting tilt, 9 to z. Schleb and Lucewiec made up the winners battery while Caffrey and White worked for the losers.
 Tomorrow the Fulton mems vol- ley ball team, defeated by Duggan in two straight games last night, will play Chase at Mill street. To- night the Fulton girls volley ball team will play Mill street at Mill.

Atwater-Kent
 Addition Sept IA
Mrs Robert F. Birt Chair-
 man of Contest Here

The Mattatuck Musical Art so- eietv. sponsoring the local Atwater Kent Addition as in previous years, announces the 1892 contest will be held in Waterbury on Wednesday evening, September 14th, at St Johns Parish hal.
 Contestants who qualify in this local addition will be in line for advancement, through state and district contests, to participation Tn the National Addition Finals. the winners of which will receive, from The Atwater Kent Foundation, cash prizes totaling $15,000. Individual awards to the five young men and five young women who progress to the finals will be: 5000 each to | the young man and young woman rated highest; $1,000 each to sec ond place winners. one young man and one young woman: $5OO each | to the six ners-up-three young men and three young women.
 Mrs Robert F. Birt. local chair man. in urging young singers to test their talents by entering the l local addition, emphasizes the fact that high degree of vocal train- ing is not necessary for success. The aim of the addition is to select the most promising naturally-beau. tiful voices, not the best trained voices. The untrained voice of qual- ity has a better chance than the trained but mediocre voice. There fore, no vocally-gifted boy or girl should hesitate to enroll because they have had little or no train- ing.
 Any young amateur singer be- tween the ages of IS and 25 in elusive is eligible to compete. Full information for enrolment can be obtained by application to Mrs Birt, or any member of her com- mittee. Every singer-local. state and district as well as national will receive permanent token of his or her success. More valuable than the direct prizes, however, is the prestige and recognition ac- cruing to those who take part in these additions. Many young sing CTS who have taken part only in the state and district contests have found the addition real stepping stone to musical careers. The complete committee follows: I Local chairman, Mrs Robert F. | Birt, 2S2 Grove street. Secretary, Miss Florence A. Cas- sidy, 51 West Main street. Compaittee-
