"THE LIMESTONE TRAGEDY

(The following verses telling
the story of how seven men,
James Moore, Frank Praetor,
Hosea Shipman, William Wooten,
Stiles Webb and Bowser Colling'
ton, colored, and Walter Collins,
colored, lost their lives on Feb
ruary s, 1888, is by the Rev. NJ.
IL. Lewis of Fletcher, and was
read by him at the time Of the
Joint funeral for several of them
at Fletcher. Rev. Mr.. Lewis en-
planned at the time that he real
! lied this is no poem" The verses,
however, created unusual inter.
est among the large circle OF
people immediately touched by
the tragedy.-Editor's note.)
Of all the tragedies of our town,
To this one we would yield the
crown.
We call it the greatest of our
day,
In that it snatches seven lives
away.
One went for a pick on the other
side,
He CHANGED to look up and saw
the slide.
He called to the men and then
he fled,
They all started but soon they
were dead.
This lone survivor cried aloud
the alarm,
Hoping his comrades would es-
cape all narr:.
They fled and ran and tried to
escape,
Tangled in their flight they were
too late.
Martin Praetor who stood on the
bank so high, &
Watched his brother Frank run.
flee and die.
Others saw the scene it made
them culver and quake,
They lost self control like q leaf
on a raging lake.
These seven were laboring for
those they loved.
When fell the great huge mass
from far above.
The mass of huge stones came
rolling down,
And pinned seven bodies fast to
the ground.
One laborer carried his hammer
on his way,
The tool with which he had la
bored that day.
He fell and died with his ham
mer in his hand,
Thus showing how faithful he
was serving his land.
The news was spread that seven
men were dead,
These were their loved ones de-
pendent for bread.
Their loved relatives rushed to
the quarry so deep,
They all looked in the pit with
hearts of grief.
The thought of seven bodies be-
meath the rocks,
Brought to their survivors hor-
rOrS and shocks.
They prayed, they cried, they
wept aloud,
They asked Gods help while IN
der the cloud.
People volunteered to serve in
any way,
And help in the great tragedy of
the day.
Many friends worked and that
without pay,
Moving the stones beneath which
the bodies lay.
They worked very faithful for
they were bold,
They bravely faced the wind
WHICH was zero cola.
Scores of rescuers labored many
hours long,
Rescuing the bodies but their
lives were gone.
Some were carried to the Fetch
er high school,
Where services were held on a
Sunday afternoon.
And thousands of people have
viewed the place.
Where these seven men ended
their untimely race.
O.! for a word that would COM
fort and cheer,
All their loved ones from far and
near.
We can only point them to the
God above,
Who will give them comfort
cheer and love.

They hate light so much that
they eat fire-flies: and they
couldn't DO that if the poor lit
tie bugs didn't have such pale

be lit up. The newspapers would
be worth 10 times their subscrip-

too many toads round our bee

WHEAT PRICES
WEAKEN UNDER
LIGHT SELLING
Lower Cables. Securities
Factors in Early
Slump.
BY HAROLD f. RAINVILLE
United Press stan Correspoudent

CHICAGO. March 2.-Wheat
dipped Is cent to 3 cent as the
Board Of Trade opened today.
Weakness in stocks was the chief
factor, although cables were not as
strong as expected.
There was some hesitancy on the
part of traders who were waiting
release of private crop estimates
and scattered selling was sufficient
to nov prices downward. Corn
weakened with wheat, being ox y
cent, with oats unchanged. Pro-
visions were steady.
Sentiment in wheat generally ia
vors higher prices, but there is no
evidence in the present surround
ings of a sharp advance. The seri-
business in the winter wheat stu
alton is expected to be confirmed
today by the private crop reports,
the chief bullish argument. Liver
pool was steady at 4 cent to Is
cent higher.
Interest in corn is held in check
by the attention given wheat.
Price changes in oats are small
and the market lacks individuality.

REVEAL
IMPORTANT BIBLE SITE
Ruins in Palestine Believed to Be
Thoco of LachiSh.
By Science Sc Jice

By Science Sc rice
LONDON, N-a rch 2.-EXcavations
at Tell Duweir, III southern Pales-
tine, have revealed what is believed
to be the site Of LachiSh, important
Bible town.
Lachish was one of the strongest
cities in the Promised Land, and
when Joshua led his army against
it, he was forced to besiege it two
days before it fell. Most strongholdS
in Palestine were conquered by
Joshua on the first day of attack.
Excavations at the mound, called
today Tell Duweir, are being made
jointly by the Welcome historical
medical museum expedition and the
Colt archaeological expedition. j. L.
Starkey is leader of the field work.
If the mound is confirmed def
nitely as Lachish. as excavations
progress, the site is expected to be
one of the most important for a
dramatic period of Biblical history.

INSTITUTE TO
TEST WIND GUSTS
Experiments Will Be Made When
Ships Are Walked From Hangers.
P,y Science Serrice

En- Science Serrice
AKRON, O., March 2.-Unexpected
wind gusts, one of the greatest dan
gers facing airship operations to-
day, are being studied by the Gug-
genheim Airship Institute here, en-
dowed for research in lighter-than-
air aeronautics.
In the future, when airships are
walked from their hangar here, in
stitute officials hope to be able to
forecast wind gusts. Thus if it were
known that a gust was scheduled to
arrive at the time of ground opera
tions, the crew would have two
choices to avoid serious injury to
the ship! Either delay the opera
lions till the passing Of the gust or
place more men on the side of the
ship where the gust would strike.
Thus the ship would be prevented
from sweeping against the doors Of
the hangar.
The Guggenheim Airship institute
building forms a, triangle with the
Goodyear-Zeppelin airdock and the
Akron airport administration build
ing, each side of this triangle being
about a mile. At each of these sta
tons, two instruments will be eject
ed, one to determine velocity and
the other direction of wind gusts.

Theodore Roosevelt's first term,
the unexpired term of President
Mckinley, amounted to three
years, five months and twenty
days. His second term was for
the regulation four years. The
new President Roosevelt is the
first to serve under the new
amendment, whereby presidents
will step out of Office on Jan. 20.
Therefore his term will be short
ened by more than a month.

cubic inch of water produce?
