The Tillage of Olcndale did nothing but Cewip about l.owcrce's downfail.

The information on Which be arretted developed time after he had confessed bis crookedness with Xoehiert Co. In other words, l.oweree hud been detected in wrong-doing with Koehler Co. and made a settlement, when Allen A Co. hnd orc.Lsiou to go over their old accounts and f. that Lowcree hail swindled tbem out of over Koehler Co.

I found that in bis five months' counectior with me he had stolen over fc.090. He ruade very few fa.se entries, hut he bept his balances some tw months behind, so that it was impossible to find out from a casual examination of the b.Kiks where the trouble existed. When I had obtained the correct figures as to his shortage I confronted bun with my knowledge. He broke down ASH iMITTTI ETggY THINO. did not iuit to be bard on him.

The Blues Beat All Fait Records and Elect Their Entire Ticket.

Ji T. Caxew Leads the Litrt With the Hand- some Majority of 429. The Annual nesting of the Library Held "Report from the Treasurer aad Board of Directors. The Bines surpassed any effort on the part of an Indepe-ndent body yesterday within the history ol the Mercantile Library. They beat all previous records by electing their entire ticket, and ti.at by the bana-somest kind of majorities.

It was an awful disaster for the Reels, and the party with the ruddy glow to its ticket fell with a dull, sickening thud. Not a man escaped from the disaster, although Maurice Freiberg made a magnificent struggle to save his party, but he went clown under tbe weight of ballot hurled in by the Blue. The weather continued very bad and there was not a very large turn-out of votes, there not being half a representation of the membership of the association. But. apparently.

ALL WHO DID TTRs OCT Were Blues: any way. a large majority were, tbe polling afierward shotted. The balloting for the males was carried on in the large room of the Chamber of Commerce under the main ball, while the ladies did ilieir voting at the Library proper. A beautiful boutonniere awaited each lady as she called, and the voles of the fair ones were received by Miss McLean and Miss Gaither. of the ibrary force, while Miss Louisa Devereux attended to the interests of the Blues, and Miss Sarah McLean of the Heds.

Of course the wretched traveling kept the dear creatures at home, for their showing was not very flattering, but 93 being tbe result of tbeir day's voting. Still it was a very flattering display of feminine interest in the war.

When Baby Martha Washington Colder died awe months ago her mother, who lives at No. 135B Paseyunk avenue, waa almost distracted with grief.

Sot only because it waa her favorite child, but because it met with a tragic end. The baby had been terribly burned, and died from its injuries. It was tbe tint death in tbe family, and Mrs. Golden had no buna! let. She wanted the body placed ia a vault until a lot could be secured, but she was finally induced to bare it buried in the strangers' section of the Union Burial Ground at fixth and Federal streeta.

A promise was given by Mrs. Wisdom, the Superintendent of the cemetery, ti.at no other bodies be placed over tbat of Baby Maitie. The interment took place, and after the funeral Mrs. Colder was prostrated for weeks. VfSIOSIS FROBf THE BRAVE One night during her prostration she had a dream tbat was intensely realistic She saw men raise, the coffir.

of the dead child from the grave, remove the little body and then lower another cotttn into the grave and fill it up. Tbe next day she told her dream to her father. Mr. Wilkinson, but he pronounced it "nonsense." A few nights later see had another .1 ream, and again saw tbe little co.tjn brought to the surface and another coffin lowered to the crave. These dreams mode a deep impression on her miud.

and on tbe tourth Sunday after the funeral she went to the burial ground with some iriends. yhe saw evidences of the grave having been disturbed, and on the ground whs a wr. of flowers, and in Hie center of the wreath was a vers-? in German. She asked the grave-digger for an explanation, and. after persistent questioning, he admitted that the grave had been opened and another cof-tiu put in.

BEXOVKD THE CHILD'S BOI'T. Then Mrs. Golder secured a burial lot at 1 ernwood, and one day sent word to Mr-. Wisdom ti.at sne named tne grave opened and the bexly of taken out. She insisted, however, that the opening should not take place until 11! o'clock next day.

when she wt.uld be present. It is said the promise was given that nothing would be done till she catue, but wnen she entered tne ceru-etry at noon ihe grave had been opened, the coffin taken out and the grave refilled. The colhn was taken to Fernwood. bere the was opened, when Mrs. (oi.ier declares they found that the coliiu bore evidences of bavins been opened.

The screws were halt way out. and Mrs, Golder is positive that they were tight at the time of tbe fnstfu-neral. The bodv. however, had not been disturbed, anil whs in a remarkably perfect slat eif preservation. Since the quiet funeral at Fern wo- id Mrs.
