IKKO nestles at the foot of the Nikko-zan range of mountains in one of the grandest valleys of picturesque Japan two thousand feet above the sea. The city of temples is especially fortunate in its environments. If the IKKO nettles at the foot of the Nikko-zan range of mountains in one of the grandest valleys of picturesque Japan two thousand feet above the sea. The city of temples is especially fortunate in its environments. If the mountains are the noblest in the northland, the waterfalls are the wildest in Japan. One of them leaps a sheer 350 feet into a basin of snow, another is broken and twisted into a series of cascades, whose silvery beauty cannot be conveyed to the ancient forests are hung with rare mosses, that give them an increased appearance of horiness. The temperature, too, has a delightful and invigorating tone, both healthful and hopeful. At Nikko is seen a shrine of the oldest religion in Japan—older than her history in fact. Basked this emblem of the Shinto faith was erected by the saint Shodo Shonin, in 716, a temple of Buddha—the later religion was introduced into the empire from China, but its priests were wise enough not to attempt to replace the primitive Shinto by it, being content THAILAND to unite the two. The ablest and most powerful follower of Buddha was, no doubt, the great warrior, Iyeyasu, who was defied by the emperor as the "great incarnation of Buddha, the light of the cast." Upon his death this naked man was buried at Kunozan, in the southern country, and noble shrines were built to immortalize his memory. But in time it was felt that sufficient honor had not been done the mighty man, and it was decided to remove his remains to a more litter resting place at Nikko. The man, who was a giant Nikko ever knew, his body was removed to her exalted protection, with such impressive ceremonies as only the rices of Buddha can afford. Japan has never seen such another burial; it may never again see its like. The most sought approach to the temple tombs of the illustrious dead is over the sacred bridge, which is a wooden structure lacquered a deep red, in vivid contrast to the somber hue of the pines, and supported by stone piers. Gates are closed at either end, and stopping all entrances except when they are open once a year for the annual festival, and vast crowds pass over the sacred way. Midway in the ascent is a small belly, looking like a huge mushroom under its big sloping roof, covered with bronze plates and surmounted by rings of Iyama. A bell bells ringing at means of a big log of wood placed at an angle, so that, upon being pulled down by a so that, it will strike the deep-tuned instrument as it rebounds, sends forth its clear, resuscit notes so as to be heard a long distance. At the head of the terraced ascent stands a massive symbol of Shintōmia, a granite torrel. This is 27 feet 6 inches in height, but looks dwarfed beside the handsome five-storied pagoda standing near by. The latter has a beautiful crest, its stories decreasing in size as they stand one above another. The leaves of the low-story are decorated by the painted carvings of the 12 Japanese signs of the zodiac, the rat, ox, tiger, hare, dragon, serpent, horse, goat, ape, cock, dog, pig. Broad stone steps lead to the entrance, through the "Gate of the Two Kings" to the storehouse, containing the precious relics of Iyeyan, and the numerous belongings of the temple. In the great courtyard, with its rows of stone lanterns, besides those two structures, with their large tiled roofs, is another and larger building, + with painted carvings of elephants, showing their hind legs turned the wrong way. These ornaments are the work of the famous left-handed artist, Hildarl Jingoro, and are considered mov- vols of artistic taste. This elegant court is lighted, on special occasions, by 118 magnificent lanterns placed on The Temples of Nikko The TOMB of FUCYASU A HIGH PRIEST TEMPLE GATEWAY massive stone hases, the gifts of noblemen in honor of the sleeping god lyeasuan. Kept in a stable near by is a snow-white pony sacred to the use of the god. This building is ornamented by the carvings of three monkeys, supposed to represent the unique triumph of San-goku no saru, the trio that neither see, hear, nor speak any evil. This fact is symbolized by the attitudes of the monkeys, one having his paws over his eyes, the second covering his mouth, and the third his ears. Wherever one goes in Japan he will see these images of blind, dumb and deaf monkeys. In this same court the monkeys fashioned a rock, and holding holy water, which comes from a stream on the mountainside, known as the White Thread Cascade, as the water flows over the brink of the preface in such a delicate layer of the silvery fluid as to look to be a part of the glistening stone. In the midst of his admiration of this scene the tourist hears the soft tinging of golden wind bells under the eaves of the buildings as they are gently swayed to and fro by the breeze. At the head of another flight of steps the visitor comes upon a second court, filled with wonder-works of Japanese art, any gifts from other countries. Amid the bronze candleabrum, that belonged years ago to a king of Locho, a huge candle stick sent from Holland, etc., etc. Another flight of steps ascended, and the visitor pauses before the Ya Mel gate, its two stories decorated with remarkable carvings of the common and the unusual in artistic work. As the ponderous gate swings ajar we are ushered into a courtyard containing several buildings, one for the koura, another for the koaguras, or sacred dance, which was performed by priestesses in wide, flowing silk trousers, an overdress of gary texture and a wreath of artificial flowers, while they held in their hands thy bells, that gave forth soft, bewitching music. They swirled in absurd positions making ridiculous passes with their fans before amused priests, who held the court of the enclosure holding a crown which contains that universal emblem of Shintolm, the golden gohel, attached to a long wand, and a Shinto mirror on a table lacquered a deep black. Another path leads, up 220 moss grown steps to that spot of greatest sanctity, the tomb of Japan's greatest ruler. In fact, all these preludes of courts, stone starwalls, massive gates, and displays of decorations have been only the entrance to the tomb of the enclosure of lofty walls surmounted with a balustride and sheltered by stately old cryptomeries, the tomb itself is un THE APPEAL. Missed One-Half of Them adored and stands an impressive and fitting resting place of the mighty shogun. It is constructed of huge blocks of stone, crested with an urn of gold, silver, and copper-bronze raised in the form of a pagoda. A vase of bronze filled with lotus flowers and leaves in brass, a bronze tortoise supporting a stork, an ornament typifying the length of the days, and an inlining turner of the same metal, all stand on the table of stone in front of the tomb. Scarcely inferior to this sublime mausoleum is the monument raised to the memory of his grandson, Iyenutsu. This is reached by an avenue turning from the approach to the other. In this direction, courtyards and flights of stone steps, gold and bronze images, grotesque carvings, temples to the Shinto faith, the tomb of Yoritomo, the shrewd ambitious and unscrupulous founder of the shogunate, niches filled with figures of mythological gods and goddesses, among which we note those ridiculous monsters with prodigious display of teeth that are supposed to rule the wind and thunder, gates that show both art and life in the building, an oratory as impressive as that of Iyewasu, and with more ornamentation. The beautiful granite and abundance of these famous shrines of Nikko must be seen to be appreciated. Art and Nature seem to have joined hands in out-doing themselves. India, famous for her sacred shrines, has nothing to compare with them. Nikko puts on her best livery at the festival of Iyeyasu, and the shrines to this hero are then seen to the best advantage. But the tourist has not seen it all until he has been present at one of the annual pilgrimages to the mountain shrines. The day is perfect. Nikko has more perfect days, it would seem, than any other spot in Japan. The grand avenue is provided with refreshments for the coming multitude, and a pine, consecrated to propitiate the evil spirits, is dragged furiously up the terraced path. Eager, An Automobile Should Be Sold Every Minute, According to This Manufacturer. Rivalry among automobile manufacturers is acute, if good natured. At a dinner of manufacturers' representatives at Hartford, Conn., one guest dwelt at length on the remarkable popularity of his car and the wonderful organization of its selling force. "Why, just think of it, gentlemen," said he, "last month our sales averaged a car every two minutes of each working day. There was never anything like it in the world before. A car every two minutes." He dwelt on this point volubly and at length. When at last he had concluded, the representative of a rival factory arose from his chair down the table and remarked: "With the last speaker's permission I would like to offer my comment on his statement that there's one of his cars sold every two minutes." Permission was granted. "I understand you to say that you call that good salesmanship. Am I right?" excited people rush after it, pucking branch after branch from the tree as charms against evils, until it is bare of leaf and branch. During this performance a continual outcure of voices from a hundred throats rings up and from the valley erstwhile so heavy with the sacred red heart of the temple and the anxious, travel-worn pilgrims move solemnly forward on their march to the holy temples. Sanctimonious priests in robes of gold brocade or silk chasubles and white caskets, and mounted on ponies selected with religious veneration for this plious occasion, are followed by their train of devoted parishoners, clothed in bright yellow gowns and holding on long poles over their heads huge train of warriors marching a long train of warriors continuous by their ancient trappings and of old styles. Next in this strange procession walk in double file, men and boys with masks over their faces and all wearing quiet costumes of other days donned for this special scene. The last squad wave wanes or temple flags of queer device over their heads, or carry live birds or monkeys. In the rear, attired in skins of wild beasts, and to make an additional more startling, men creep in their hands. They follow two and two acrees, besides these singular bodies of people at intervals along the marching column zealous adherents of the faith drew sacred cars on wooden wheels, with temple-shaped roofs and bodies of dark lacquer, valances of rare needle-wear, and rich draperies of red and yellow silk. The entire scene is enlivened, if not rendered more enjoyable, by all sorts of instruments, musical and otherwise, sending forth their array of sounds. The procession avenue is fairly deluged by the audience is fairly deluged by the of spectators who have come from all parts of the country—some hundreds of miles—to witness this famous festival. "I certainly do," affirmed the previous speaker. "Well, I don't; that's all. I call it mighty poor salesmanship." "What do you mean?" demanded the boaster. "A car every two minutes—" "Poor salesmanship—there's no other name for it. The gentleman forgets the universally accepted truth that 'there's a sucker born every minute.'"

Merrington Kirk, Apart From Its Antiquity, is interesting to the Tourist Through a Peculiarly Grusene Happening. London, England.—One of the old and interesting churches of England, dating back to Saxon times, is Kirk Merrington, a strong structure which crowns a hill in the village of Merrington in Durham county. The few old, straight-backed oak pews, which it contains, as well as the gargoyles and elves, carved upon the ends of the roof beams, just under the eaves, which look down upon the beholder, some with protruding tongues, others with a hideous grimace, the quint windows and the general air of antiquity, all tend to throw around the structure that curtain of mystery is stillly encircles these landmarks of burying England. Merrington Kirk is no famous in another respect, for its eaves shelter the tomb of the victims of the last gibbeted and hanged in chains in the County of Durham. It is inscribed as follows: "Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shedd shall his blood be shedd Restored by subscription in 1785. As sample of English as it was written toward the close of the seventeenth century and of the involved and confusing method of composition then employed we reprint the following account of the tragedy as set down at the time of the murder, in 1863: "A sad, cruel murder was committed by a boy about 18 or 19 years of age. Ferryhill nere Durham being Thurrock manner is by report, when the parents of does a young man, being some to the house, and two daughters was kld by this boy with an axe having knock'd yin in ye head, afterwards cut their throats, one yin being asleep in ye bed about 10 or 11 years of age, the other daughter was to be married at Candelares. After he kld the oldest daughter, being about 20 years of age, a little laf, her sister, about the age he dragd her out at bed above, she also. This same Andrew Mullis alias Miles, was hanged in irons upon a gy bettre Ferry hill on the 15th day Merrington Church. of August, being Wednesday, this year, 1683." There is little need of entering further into the details of this gruesome tragedy. Millus, or Milos, who said that the devil had told him to commit the crimes, was seized by troopers and after trial was gibbeted in chains on a common, by the roadside, near Ferry-ville. A tradition, let us hope untrue, exists to the effect that he revived after the gibbeting and lived in awful torture for several days, being in the meantime fed by his sweetheart. A portion of the gibbet on which he was hanged stood for many years afterward, until a belief grew up that it possessed a charm for the toothache, when the people ate it piecemeal. "MOVIES" IN N. Y. SCHOOLS Pictures Will Be Used in New York to Teach History and Geography. New York—The moving picture is about to be introduced in the classrooms of New York city public schools. During the past year it was tried out semi-officially in bays halls of several downtown schools. The principals have been very enthusiastic. The motion picture is able to render the greatest assistance in geography and history. Mr. Edison has perfected his miniature moving picture machine, especially suitable for the home and the schoolroom. Twenty-Eighth Child. Niagara Falls, N.

Douglasville, Fa—Of much interest to automobiles passing through the Sohak hill valley is the old Swed- house here. The historic structure, the best building in Berks county, marks the town's immovable element in the state of the Swedes, who were the first white settlers of Pennsylvania. The building was erected in 1716 and with the exception of slight alterations stands as it did nearly two centuries ago. The Swedes who penetrated the unknown wilderness were a part of the colony which effected the first settlement on the Delaware in 1638. Pennsylvania was known as New Swedes. The Question of encouraging the settlement of this region by the Swedes Oldest House in Berks County. had been considered by the king of Sweden a decade prior to that, but his war with the Germans and his subsequent sudden death delayed and nearly ended the project. A part of the congregation of the old Swedes' (Gloria Del) church, which is now embraced in Philadelphia, under the leadership of Andrew Rudman, made an exploration of the Schuylkill in 1701 for the purpose of establishing an inland trading post with the Indians. They found suitable land several miles north of the Manatawney creek, where William Penn, the new proprietor of Pennsylvania, granted them 10,000 acres. The settlement was named Moriation and the Swedes lived in harmony with the Indians and thrived there long before the advent into the region of the English and German settlers. Their descendants are found in the locality to this day. Some of them, whose names are still perpetuated, were Andrew Bawkley, Benjamin Jenkins, Peter Boon, Benjamin Jenkins, Justason, Mounce Justice, John Cock, Peter Cock, Otto Ernest Cock, Jacob Culin, Matthus Hilstus, Morton Murtis, Peter Yocum and Mounce Jones. The old house above mentioned was built by Mounce Jones, who had one of the largest tracts under cultivation. It stands on the east bank of the Schuykill, hidden on all sides by large trees. A road connecting the river nowways on either side of the river nowways on either side of it, from which the old date stone in its upper walls, bearing the date 1716, is easily decipherable. The building is now used as the headquarters of a boat club. HIS TRUST IS IN THE BIBLE Kaiser Declares He Solves All Questions, Even of a Political Nature, by the Scriptures. Paris, France—Rene Pauux, the military expert of the Templars, who was in close contact with the German emperor during the recent maneuvers of the Swiss army, quotes the emperor as summing up his satisfaction with the work of the troops in a conversation with President Forner in the words: "Your army saves me six army corps." The emperor in conversation constantly insisted upon the necessity of understandings as the best means of dissipating suspicion, and declared his personal desire to maintain peace. On one occasion, in emphasizing this in conversation with President Forner, the emperor intimated to the president that he acquired much of his inspiration from the bible. "I don't care much for priests and clergymen," said the emperor. "They dilute the gospel with too much of their own dogma. I hold to the bible, which I constantly read and reread. In it one find the solution of every difficulty, of every problem, even of a political description." It is known that the emperor's main object in attending the maneuvers was to convince himself of the ability of the Swiss army to make the neutrality of the country respected in case of war, and his remark is interpreted to mean that by the Swiss army the Germans would be able to French from invading Germany through Switzerland, the Germans could release six army corps in south Germany for service in Alsace-Lorraine or along the Belgian front. Bat Attacks Sleeping Girls. Nanticoke, Pa.-Cries of his two little sisters, Mary and Anna, aged five and seven years, summoned an older brother to their bedside.

NO CLEW TO HISTORY STUDENTS OF ARCHEOLOGY ALU PUZZLED OVER YUCATAN. Art and Architecture of Once Great People Are There, but Hieroglyphic Baffle All the Knowledge of the Scientist. Pittsburgh—Through the efforts of Henry Hornbostel, head of the building bureau of the Pittsburg Carnegie Institute of Technology, there will be in the Carnegie institute before a great while specimens of distinctive American art and architecture, the legacy of that mysterious people who lived ages ago in America, attained a high degree of civilization, developed a beautiful and cultivated art, and then passed away, leaving only these treasures of art and architecture to tell what their civilization had been instrumented in arousing the Carnegie Museum of Washington to an interest in this field and it has been an ablation for exploration of the art of Yucatan. In company with Lloyd Warren, Mr. Hornbostel made a pleasure trip to Yucatan during a recent vacation, going far into the interior of the country where lies waiting a storehouse of material for students of archaeology with reference to hieroglyphics as well as art and architecture. The hieroglyphics are all the more alluring because of their baffling conditions, with never a claw yet discovered to work from in deciphering their meaning, which reveal to us the minds of the wondrous inhabitants of America. The priceless in habitual neglected and crumbling to ruins while at the same time huge sums are being paid by our museums for replicas of works of art of the eastern hemisphere. With the completion of the Panama canal all signs point to a vast influx of northerners into these southern states and an awakening of interest in the study of the arts. Their pottery and decorative designs are also inspired by the art of enlightening dealers and advertisers in kinds of wares as souvenirs of the celebration of the opening of the great canal. "The day will soon come," says Mr. Hornbostel, "when excursioning to the ruins of Yucatan will be made as easily as to the Holy Land or to Egypt. It is now impossible for petticats to travel into the interior of the country, as it is wild and deeply forested as the interior of Afrancan lands." The guide made the journey from Merida, the capital of Yucatan, in the most On the Plains of Yucatan. primitive of wooden wagons drawn by three burros, and because of the loose construction of its wooden wheels and axles, which allow it to wabble from side to side without injury, wonderfully adapted to the rough stone roads of the country." Two absolutely unique characteristics of the ancient people who built these ruins thousands of years ago, and of whom they and the pyramids on which many of them are built are the only trace, were noted by Mr. Hornbostel. The first is that the tomb of the first king is not artifacts of any kind, there were no roads and the houses were far apart, making them indeed garden cities, and there were no beasts of burden. "This vanished race was a peaceful people," said Mr. Hornbostel, "and such architecture of a primitive race is absolutely unique in history. They had no fear of an invading army and no preparation to repulse one. They had no means of moving either an army or supplies." The second peculiarly noted by the travelers is the original form of architecture in the tomb of the buildings, which are made of small stones, cut and dressed, with an original cantilever construction of arches. This structure, Mr. Hornbostel claims, he has not found anywhere else in all his study of architecture, ancient, medieval and modern. Wife's Blood Saves Life. Baltimore—Harry H.

As the funeral cortege entered the holy edifice, Mrs. Harriet Loomis-Oliver sang, ‘Face to Face.” The casket which held the miortal remains was what is known as state casket of black broadcloth, with ex- tension handles of oxidized ‘silver, and by special permission there was laid upon it the floral token of the be- reaved widow.

It is sad but true—painfully true ven Nature seemed during the past days -to have put on her garb o! mourning, for here lies under our eye: the wreckage which marks the trail 0 Death as he stalks victoriously througt the world. Here, under the full gaz of this assemblage, is the relict of tha awful struggle of last Thursday night when our departed friend grapple with and was vanquished by the com mon foe of humanity—a foe who always inspires terror, since his purpose i always victory, and he never know: defeat. | It is unfortunate that it should fal to my lot, Insignificant as I am, t preach the funeral sermon of Fre McGhee, for he deserves a better eu logy than T am capable of. Now, th Master has sent each and every one 0 us into his vineyard as laborers. He [ihe Lord and Master of all, places u therein, whether it is at the firs hour, the sixth hour, the ninth hour, o the eleventh hour, and He has palce us there to earn our penny. If we pre form our task, then we shall receiv: our reward. If-we do not, then we ar unprofitable servants, and we shall b cut off and cast into outer darkness. Fred McGhee 51 years ago breathe the breath of life and saw the light 0 day for the first time. Little did h think that he would have risen in thi America of ours, for he is undoubted a national character. What he accom plished {s due entirely to his indom! table energy, his progressive activity his true Christian spirit which led hin to exhaustive knowledge of men an affairs. So much that (like the chem ist Working in his laboratory) he wa able to controt the sentiments of men He knew how tojreach the inmost re cesses of their hearts, and that hi eee Ee eee Oe See WAS So Wrapped up Inthe interests of the community in bs, lived that it was impossible for him’ not to lead the van for reform. Nor did he ever forget that he was one of the race in this country against whom the door of opportunity is closed and barred and who merely lives and breathes un- der the domination of another. Nei: ther did he forget the rights that be- long to him and his race and that those rights should not be trampled upon or set adide. There was not a time when Fred McGhee asa citizen allied him- self to any political party and es- Poused its principles that he allowed himself to forget what he had most at heart, the interests of his own people. These he stood by with all the devo- tion and grit of a man of action and a man of power, and when party prin- ciples and the interests of the race clashed the race always claimed his allegiance. Such is the public man who will live long in the hearts of the people he served. Like all public men he had his enemies, that is unavoid- able in public life; ‘but what is that compared to the friends, the host of loyal friends he could. always summon to his aid. I have seen in my short experience in St. Paul how Fred Mec- Ghee has stood almost. alone for the rights of his people. Many a time he fought and lost, but when he faced de- feat he always died game. As a Catholic Mr. McGhee is per- haps better known to me and to this congregation than to most others, but even as a Catholic his reputation’ was in keeping with the universality of the Church to which he gave his allegi- ance, universal in the limited sense that right here in these United States, North or South, East or West, you will find Fred McGhee was known as a Catholic and loved by his fellow churchmen. Right here in this parish was the scene of his activity to which his former pastor can attest. Night or day, sunshine or rain, winter or summer, he was always here at the pastor's beck and call. He labored for chureh, for society and for the indi- viduals in this little church. His heart was so wrapped up in the interests of this little mission that at times his name and the name of St. Peter Cla- vers were, though erroneously, inter- changeable terms. As a professional man his practice brought him in totich with all races and all conditions of men, and who could ever imagine how generous he was, how devoted and loyal to client and friend, so much so that he was sometimes regarded as reckless and im- prudent in his efforts to throw up the barriers of protection for the helpless and forsaken. Who knows of his liberal- ity? T can assure that not even his wife knew the extent of his liberality until death called him. Then it was that his relations and friends had an opportunity to see how his purse strings had been drawn wide open for the relief of poverty and distress, ‘The time comes, however, when we must give an account of our steward- ship. It is certain, yes, frightfully cer- ‘ain, that We must account in the strictest manner some day. Not more than four weeks ago I was standing at the door of the Church | waiting for the worshippers as ae wended thelr way to the parochial Mass. I knew, or thought I knew, that fred. McGhee was at his country lace, for that was the only cause (ex- -ept_when business called him from own) which prevented him participat- ng in the Sunday services. As I ooked I saw a man on Farrington ave- wwe on crutches; little did I think that vas the commencement of the end. I | vas unable to persuade myself, at irst, that it was he, for I had never | own him to be ill enough to cause | Jarm to his friends. He hobbled | Jong, and as he approached the chureh | recognized him. He came not to his! ost, but seated himself in the last | ew in that corner to participate, for he last time, in the parochial services f this church, After the services he | ame into the sacistry to see me for | “while, Did I imagine that that was | is last visit to me?—no, But there yas something sad in the tone of his oice as he asked me, “Father, I wish ou to say a mass for me.” That was is last request. Only those of us who now the import of a mass understand he meaning of that request. He bade ne good-bye, and, lame as he was, he assed through ‘this sanctuary ‘and aid his respects to his Lord and Mas- er in the tabernacle, and then he de- arted, never more to return to the hurch until he was brought a corpse. ‘wo days after, I received a telephone all from‘his ‘devoted wife—“Come, ‘ather,” she said, and the Catholic lest is ever ready for such calls. ‘Come, Father, Mr. McGhee is suf- ering, and he needs you.” I hurried | ff and found him in excruciating tor-| ure, yet with the tenacity of purpose | vnich characterized him he refused rom the start to concede any prospec- | ive victory to Death. I saw him for | n hour. T knew his physical needs | jad been attended to. I knew he} vanted me there to take care of the| nterests of his soul, and T-agked him, | Do you wish to receive the sacrament | ff Pennance now?” “No,” he said, | ‘not yet. I am suffering, but it will, vas away. Just pray for me.” The| next day I called and found him, to| ny mind, in a worse condition, but in esponse to my inquiry as to how he vas, he replied, “Oh, fine! fine!” Af er administering the sacrament it was | hen that T felt that T had done my | juty as his pastor, and hoped that he would prove the victor. That night. I visited him again, and he seemed to be passing through a crisis. There is , sacrament known as the Last Unc- ion or annointing.

Last Wednesday Emmett McGhee, aged 22, working in the roundhouse of the Great Northern RY, at Willimington, Minn., concluded he would come to St. Paul to consult a doctor about his kidneys. He could ride free, being employed on the road, and had $15 in his inside pocket. On arriving in St. Paul early Thursday morning, he made the acquaintance of a white tramp, and they took a drink at McGhee's expense, and then several others. As McGhee was to whiskey, he was soon knocked out and while asleep his new acquaintances touched him for all he had but $1.75 and left him. The police picked him up and put him in the station. Friday morning when his name, McGhee, was called in the police court, it caused everybody to take notice of him, as it brought to mind the late attorney by that name, whose face was so familiar in the court. Judge Hanft heard his story, which seemed "fishy," but he was inclined to temper justice with mercy, and sent the young fellow back to the "bull pen" for further investigation. THE APPEAL man happened in the court house and his attention was called to McGhee because of his name. He went to the prisoner was brought out to talk Mr. McGhee to whom he told his story. The judge then called the stranger to him and, with a few words of admonition, set him free. Young McGhee went to the St. Louis Kitchen, got a good breakfast, and soon found his way to the depot, where took the first train out for Willimington, saying, "Never again!" Carl William Salter Dead. The funeral of Capt. William Salter, who died Friday of last week of hemorrhage of the lungs, was held on last Monday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock from the residence of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. March Salter, 588 Cord street, and at 2:30 from St. James A. M. E. church. Owing to the absence of the pastor, Rev. H. P. Jones and Rev. Jos. S. Strong, from the city, the funeral sermon was reached by Rev E. H. McDonald, of Pilgrim Baptist church. He was assisted by Rev A. H. Church, of the Copper church. The deceased was a very ular young man, and the church was crowded to overflowing, many being unable to get in. The floral tokens were very numerous and very beautiful. Music was furnished by the church choir, and by especial request of the deceased, sang, "Nearer My God to Thee." Miss Abbra Bell, also by request, sang the "Rosary." Mrs Gussie Jones sang, Flee of the Birds The pallbearers were: Ceasar Harris, Frank Donaldson, Ray Anderson Edward Hatton, Ollie McManus and F. L.
