Union and Confederate veterans lock- ed arms and strolled about the old familiar ground singing "Dixie" and "Marching Through Georgia" with equal fervor. Of all the vast host of age<l men who travelled here for the celebration only eight answered to the call of the Grim Reaper during the week's festivities Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States, heard the combined rebel yell and Northern battle cry from thousands of aged throats greet- ing him as the leader of a United Na- tion. The President arrived shortly after 11 o'clock. He was accompanied into the big tent and on the stage by two Veterans. On his right was a Union veteran bearing the American Flag. On his left was a Confederate with the Stars and Bars. His entrance into the tent to the strafns of "Hail to the Chief" brought the crowd, estimated at 10,000, from their chairs with a cheer. The speak- ers' platform was filled with the staff officers of Governors, men in gray and blue, and women in gay dresses. The President in his black frock coat was a quiet figure. Gov. Tener introduced him in a doz- en words. President Wilson was interrupted many times by applause as he spoke. After praising the veterans he called the people of to<lay to arms with the Constitution as articles of enlistment and the laws of tfie land as^orders of day. Thefight,he said, would be one for justice and freedom for the lowly. The President said in part: "Friends and Fellow Citizens: I need not tell you what the battle of Gettysburg meant. These gallant men in blue and gray sit all about us here. Many of them met here upon this ground in grim and deadly struggle. Upon these famous fields and hill- sides their comrades died about them. In their presence it were an impertin- ance to discourse upon how the battle wentl how it ended, what it signifies! But fifty years have gone by since then, and I crave the privilege of speaking to you for a few minutes of what those fifty years have meant. "What have they meant? They have mc%nt peace and union and vigor, and the maturity and might of a great na- tion. How wholesome and healing the peace has-been!" The President paid touching tribute to the brave men now- gone, who once were marshalled on that spot, and to the venerable survivors who stood before him, Imt he had more particu- larly in his: jnind another host of which, he k^Uiei&i ler: "That host is the people themselves, the greaLana;th§8ma.H, without class or difference'of kind or race or origin. • * * Our Constitutions are their articles of enlistment. The orders of the day are t i e laws; upon our statute books. What we strive for is their freedom, their right to lift themselves from day to day and behold the things the yhave hoped for, and so make way for still better days for those whom they love who are coming after them. The recruits are the litt% ^ crowding -W Th l ^^^^j stores are in the mines and forests and fields, in the shops and factories. Every day something must be done to push the campaign forward; and it must be done by plan and with an eye to Tsome great destiny. "Here is the Nation God has builded with our hands. What shall we dp with it? Who stands ready to act again and always in the spirit of this day of reunion and hope and patriotic ferror- The day of our country's life has but broadened into morning. Do not put uniforms by. Put the harness of the .present on. Lift your eyes to the great tracts of life yet to be con* querer in the interest of righteous peaoe and of that prosperity which lies In a people's hearts and outlasts all wars and errors of men No one episode of the semi-centen- nial celebration testified so finely to the one big fact that the veterans of* the Blue and Gray have thoroughly enjoyed themselves, that all bitter- ness, all soreness has passed away and that every dollar that our Uncle Sam and the. Btates spent was mighty well Bpent in bringing them together. The real story of this last day of re- union and splendid friendship between the old soldiers of the North and of the South must tell of the parade be- fore sunrise, the singing, shouting pa- rade that weaved between army and army, while Confederate bands played "Marching Through Georgia" and Fed- eral bands stirred the echoes of the Round Tops with "Dixie"; of the pa- rade made up of old men. wao had found their youth on the field of Get- tysburg sad who marched with their hamis on one another's shoulders or th?!r arms i»round one ing of 30,00© or 40,900 men Our illustration shows two views of Gettysburg battlefield as occupied by the armies of Union and Con- federate veterans gathered to celebrate peacefully the fiftieth anniversary of the great battle.

Lawrence, Mass.-^Eleven boys, all lads 8 to 12 years old and the children mostly of poor working people, lost their lives in the Merrimac River here, when a runway leading from the river to a municipal bathhouse collap- sed under the combin A weight of about fifty youngsters who crawled eagerly upon it anxious to get out of the hot sunshine and be the first to get undressed and dive into the cool' ing stream. It is possible and more than proba- ble that others perished, although two divers worked on the bottom of the river all evening but were unable to find more bodies.

Senate to Sidetrack Wall Street In- quiry for Charges Against N. A. M. Washington.—A •general and most sweeping investigation of the lobby and all its ramifications is to be the Immediate result of the startling dis- closures made through the World by Colonel M. M. Mulhall, the former lobbyist, field agent.and strike breaker of the National Association of Manu- facturers.' Following an interview between President Wilson and Senator Over- man, Chairman of the Senate Lobby Investigating Committee, at the White House, the announcement was made by the Senator that the original scope of the investigation ordered by the Senate would be expanded to uncover all the hidden secrets of the lobby and of the agents of "inside government" during the last ten years. The assertion of Mulhall that, as lobbyist for the National Association of Manufacturuers, he had for years maintained close relations with cer- tain members of Congress and financed their campaigns for re-election, have so intensified the feeling In Congress circles the committee has determined to proceed to question all persons con- nected with any, of the recent lebby disclosures as rapidly as they can be heard. A general denial has been made of the charges by the officers of the N. A. M. . Gettysburg,—In , a sun whose rays beat down as fiercely as did the lead- en hail fifty years ago in the critical conflict of the civil war 10,000 veter- anos of those stirring times, both blue and gray, walked or limped from their quarters to the big tent here to par- ticipate in the meetings of the semi- centennial celebration of the Battle of Gettysburg. From the tented city, covering many acres, inwhich they are housed by the State of Pennsylvania, the "Yanks" and "Johnnie Rebs" strolled arm in arm to hear their praises ac- claimed by statesmen, soldiers and civilians. There were about twenty- five Grand Army men to every Con- federate in the great tent for the op- ening or Veteran's Day exercises, but the shrill "Ye on 'yip 'yi" of the rebel yell made the numbers of the latter seem much greater. The Rebel gray is a popular color in Gettysburg; Any man who wears it is sure of a tumultuous greeting from all the old men in blue who can get within gunshot of him. All through the streets the same picture j was being repeated every moment— some old man in gray coming along and being instant^ pounced upon by half a dozen men in blue and being borne off in triumph. It is a real re- union, the genuine article. Of the 55,000 Blue and Gray veter- ans in camp only 3,000 spent the day with the Governors and Generals in the big reunion tent, while fully 30,000 devoted the day to the 3,664 known and unknown dead in the National Cemetery on the Ridge immediately back of the camp. .No veteran found the grave of his company mate without uncovering his head and failing miserably in his at- tempt to hold back the tears. Around the statue of the Pennsyl- vania leader of the first day's battle. General Reynolds, stood a crowd of uncovered veterans. Indeed the ceme- tery was the greatest attraction to the encamped veterans. Many of them neglected their mess call and stayed at the cemetery under the trees fring- ing the soldier graves, dreaming all day about fifty years ago. The big meeting started at two o'clock. Colonel J. M. Schoonmaker, chairman of the Battle of Gettysburg Commission, presided. The invocation was by the Rev. George Edwards Lovejoy, Chaplain-in- CMef, O. A. R. Secretary of War Gar- rison addressed the veterans, praising the valor and extolling the unity of the "United States. Governor John K. Tener, of Pennsyl- vania, spoke next His speech was one of welcome and of -praise. As he fin- ished General Benriett H. Young, Com- mander in Chief; United Confederate Veterans, led a febel yell for the Gov- ernor. Alfred B. BeerB, head of the G. A. R., and General Young also spoke. POSTAL BONDS POPULAR. Latest Issue of $1,116,880 an Increase of 141,900 Over January. Washington. — Postmaster General Burieson signed and sent to the Treas- ures of the United States a check for $1,116,880 in payment for postal sav- ings bonds which have been applied for by postal savings depositories. The total amount of bonds applied for at this *iiae Ahows an increase of t«#00, or $.& p«? cent, over the pr*- seeding UiBue, which was made Jan- U last. New York.—That $100,000 jewel robbery from Udall & Ballou's sto: at No. 574 Fifth avenue was commil ted by a boy. According to his own -confession he conceived and executed the entire affair himself. He is Wil- liam Beck, the youngster, only years old, who jumped out of a polio head quarter's window and escaped from the detectives who were putting him through the third degree. The. loot was found by Central Of- fice detectives. It had been checked in the Pennsylvania station by Beck Th*e check and the key to the satch< containing the jewelry were found an envelope in the postoffice, where they had been mailed by Beck to him- self at general delivery. But the boy did not give up withou a hard .fight. Four times he swore | a confession that Henry Kirby, th< ] store's manager, had been the brains j of the job. Then he was confronted j with Kirby himself and broke down I The story of Beck's capture aft his escape from headquarters reall; begins Tuesday. On that afternoon Dougherty got Col. Henry Bartham on the telephone and suggested that he call on Beck's mother. I So Colonel Bartham, who has beei I Beck's employer for six: 'years, or eve j since Beck was 11 years old, went to the Beck's flat in Harlem and tai; ed things over with Mrs. Beck, said she would do what sha could Late that night he received a tel phone message from Mrs. Beck. Sn< said that if he would go to Ruthei ford, N. J., he would find there E< ward Harrison, living at No. 76 Cht ter street. Mr. Harrison is a cousin young Beck. Mrs. Beck thought 1 could produce the boy. Colonel Bartham boarded a train ai went to Harrison's home. There h< found that the boy had been there since his escape from headquarters, but that he had left for New York. Former Fire Captain Burns, who an uncle to William Beck, had eom< for the boy and taken him away. An hour later he appeared at he quarters and made his confession. Beck was arraigned before Chief Magistrate McAdoo on a complaint sworn to by F. William Bartham, Jr. charging him with grand larceny. H said he was guilty of the charge an< was.locked up in the Tombs withou bait ILLINOIS WOMEN CELEBRATE. Parade in Honor of New Suffrage Law ' Going Into Effect. Chicago.—Women of Illinois cele- brated a new "Independence Day" the occasion being the day on which the new equal suffrage law took effect, or as the won* en themselves were pleased to pui it, the day ufcon which they motapho; i<\quiy attained their ma- jority.

London.—The last ten days of fight- Ing among the former Balkan allies resulted in the killing or wound Crop. Reports an innovation Inaugu- rated by Agricultural Department- Effect of Frost, Insects and Lack of Rain Discounted. ' i greater ilaughter than any recorded in the rar against Turkey. The Servians alone hare lost more nen—15,000 killed and wounded—than in the whole previous campaign, and semi-official statements Issued at Bel- grade have the appearance of an in- tention to prepare the public for news of a disaster. Desperate fighting, with fluctuating fortunes, is proceeding along the Var- dar and Bregalintsa Rivers, and* this seems to be in favor of the Bulgar- tns. There is heavy fighting also be- tween the Servians and Bulgarians to the south of Istif and in the neighbor- hood of Kotchana. About 200,000 men in all are engag- ed, and the losses on both sides ap- pear to be severe. Bulgaria's strategy appears to be to hold the Greeks in check, probably with comparatively small forces, while she deals with Servia. This assump- tion, if correct, would explain the vic- torious advance of the Greek Army. Salonika dispatcher continue to re- port Greek victories. The Greeks an said to have captured sixteen guns at Albany.—Staple crops of the State this year may be expected to equal or exceed the usual ten year average, according to the July crop .bulletin is- sued by the State Department of Agri- culture. The bulletin also states that reports of the last few weeks to the effect that frost insects and lack of rain have ruined the crops have been found to be "misleading and often highly exaggerated." The issuance of bulletins on, the conditions of crops is an innovation < recently inaugurated by the Agricul- tural Department. The summary of the July bulletin follows:— Hay and forage, oats and corn re- ports indicate a crop approximately 10 per cent less than last year, with chances for much improvement in corn. Wheat, rye and potatoes,, average crop with normal conditions. Beans and cabbage, conditions favorable for normal crop. . Apples, fall varieties, in excess of last year; winter varieties should "equal last year in Hudson valley and indicate 25 per cent, decrease in West- ern New York. Pears, plums and peaches promise not to equal last year's crop. Sour cherries, will equal last year, but sweet varieties will be less. in the arrival of 8,000 wound- ed at Salonika, taxing the town's ac- commodations and resources to the ut- lost. Thousands of destitute refu- gees from the scene of thefightingare pouring into Salonika. The Greeks have made wholesale charges against the Bulgarians of burning and pillaging all the villages they abandon, and of committing mur- ders, mutilations and other horrors. More than 4,000 refugees are concen- trated at Nigrita and adjacent vil- lages. A Belgrade despatch to the Vienna Reichspost reads: "The wounded arriving her bring horrible details of the battle against the Bulgarians saying that the sol- diers in action resemble T>easts of prey, forgetting that human beings are opposed to them. Men strangle one another, stab without pausing and -anash in the heads of their enemies with the butts of their rifles. The bitterness shown is inhuman. "In half of the wounded arriving at Belgrade their injuries are caused by hand-to-hand fighting. Some are even suffering from bites, which in wrest- ling breast to breast have been given on the face or the hands." GET $50,000 STOLEN JEWELS. Greenwich Police Also Take Allegeo. Participants in Long Branch Robbery. Greenwich, Conn.—Two men were arrested here charged with having been the men who rtrfcbed the home of Harry L. Haas, of Long Branch, N. J., of $50,000 worth of jewelry. After a few hours' examination by detectives in which the men steadfastly insisted that they had not committed the burg- lary the police searched a satchel which cne of the men had in his room. The bag contained all the jewels ex- cept a diamond sunburst, of small val- ue compared to the total value of the loot. The men arrested are R. Rhind, who has been a nurse in Dr. J. E. Bow- man's sanitarium, and James Mcln- tyre, who has references showing that he has served as a household servant in the homes of some prominent peo- ple, including some who have summer homes at Newport. 4 DROWNED AFTER LONG FIGHT Yacht Capsized in Hurricans on Lake Ontario—Two Reach Shire. Rochester, N. Y—Two Rochester men who swam to shore from the wreckage of a sailboat on Lake On- tario, near Wolcott, told of the drown- ing of four companions, all residents of this city, after a ten-hour fight against death. The d»ad are Frank Salzer, vice president snd superin- tendent of a shoe company; Edward Keele, painter; Alexander T. Lem- mon, finisher, and Frank A. McCol- lough, cutter. The survivors, Peter A. Blattner and Cornelius Coughlin, say the six left Sodus Point for a cruise to Oswego. TIBETANS KILL FAMILIES. Fearing Chinese Victory, They Final ly Repulse Enemy. Cheng-Tu,—A large band of Chinese recenly surrounded the Tibetan town of Hslang Chen. The Tibetans before going into battle killed their women and children lest they should be capt- ured. The Chinese, however, ran short of ammunition and the Tibetans re- pulsed them on all sides with heavy losses. One hundred Chinese ifctft* drowned while fording the river. York belt promises about 75 per cent. of last year's crop. Aid Farm Bureau Work. Perry.—One hundred farmers from various parts of Wyoming county were present at the first annual meeting of the Wyoming County Farm Bureau Association. Reports were given by the committees and a constitution and set of by laws were adopted. W. S. Sanford, chairman of thefinancecom- mittee, of Perry, reported that $1,- 900 had been pledged and the esti- mated cost for the year would be $3,- 000. W. L. Markham, the expert, gave an outline of the work done during the past two months. S. L. Strivings, treasurer of Castile, reported that $369 had been paid him and that all the expenses were paid to date. The election of officers resulted as fol- lows:—President, W. H. McClelland. Perry; vice president, Horace Avery, Warsaw; secretary, Howard Wells, of Pike; treasurer, Silas I* Strivings, Castile; executive committee, W. A. Hawley, Wyoming, one year; W. H. HaWper, Warsaw, two years; William Jones, Perry, three years. Fatally Shot by Companion. Geneva. 1 —Jay Thomas Chrysler, 21« of flint, was accidentally shot by Clare-nce Cardwell or William Evans, at Fltnt. Chrysler died at the Geneva City Hospital shortly after being brought to that institution. Investiga- tion by Coroner Flint showed that Chrysler, Cardwell and Evans were swimroing in Flint Creek and having left the water were dressing. Evans had a revolver which he bought four days ago. Harry Shipman, a neigh- bor, who sold Evans the gun, thought it was not loaded. Evans got his gun and war handing it to Cardwell when the gun fired. The, men declare they do not know who had the gun when it was fired. Chrysler, who was some distance away, was struck in the side and fell into the water. He was res- cued and hurried to the Geneva City Hospital. There was but one bullet In the revolver. Coroner Flint has de- cided that the shooting was acci- dental. The men are farm hands. Rose Gardens Attractive. Rochester.—Without making a spe- cialty of roses, the Park Board has ar- ranged, through Assistant Supers intendent of Parks John Danbar, an unusually attractive collection of two general classifications, the hybrid per- petual and the tea rose, for display in the especially favorable soil at Maple- wood park. There Is a wider selection at Highland, but the quality of the blossoms at Maplewood is even better. Both rose gardens are at the height ©f their T>eauty just now. Some day, when other specialties which give the Rochester parks a national reputation have become sufficiently a fixture to require comparatively small expense, perhaps ttfe Park board may special- ise in roses; in the meantime taer« are two very satisfactory displays. Heavy Sentence for Assault. Rochester.—Stephen Strefc. 62 years old. who was found guilty to*County court last week of assault to the sec- ond degree, was seatenced fcy Judg« Stephens to a' fine of $400 and eight months in the penitentiary. The peni- tentiary sentence was suspended dur- ing his good behatrior. fa* case the $400 fine is not paid, Streb must s e r o 100 days, and must then serve th* eight months anyway.
