'HEAR THAT DRUM?' ASKS VETERAN AS HE DIES Captain Gilmour Passes on With Echoes of Memorial Day Music in Ears Captain John M. Gilmour, veteran of many a cavalry battle, knew thnt his last Memorial Day had come. Defeated In his final battle, a gritty, all day fight with death, the aged soldier died at tho Frankford Hospital last night with the echoes of tho day's martial music In his ears. "I know this will be my last Momorlat Day," he whispered a few hours before he died. The last hours of the cavalry officer caused many a tug at tho hearts of those who saw him' pass away. Tho sound of fife and drum came to him as he lay on his cot, tho flfo and drum that led tho way for a -few of his comrades marching past the hospital on their way to the Memorial Day exercises In 'Cedar Hill Cemetery. Insistently, it seemed to him. the shrill ing of tho fife nnd the roll of the drum called.hlm to come. "If I cou&only see the boys," he gasped. "It would be such a comfort to me. I wanted to march with them today, but I know this Is my last Memorial Day." He inea,. to rise to look out of the window, He was too weak, and death was'toS neap even for tender hands to lift him so' that' he could eee. "Hear that drum," he whispered. "It carries' me back to the old days with Sher man In Georgia." He lapsed Into uncon sciousness and died a few hours later. Captain Gilmour, who was 77 years old, was to have been orator at the Sunday night rnenjorlal services In the Frankford Presbyterian Church, but was stricken with apoplexy last Saturday. Ho was a past commander of the Ashworth Post, No. 334, G. A. R., and was superintendent of wo i'-rankrord bathhouse.

Send them to the OLD MOTHER GOAT, BEREFT OF KIDS, WAILS UNTIL NEIGHBORS PROTEST Animal's Children Taken Away Because Doctor Said Lit tle Sick Boy Must Have the Milk Anguished Bleatings Eouse Other Residents Police assistance was enlisted today to quiet tho pleadings of a mother-heart Tiereft of Juvenile offspring. Other mothers voiced tho complaint and declared that maternal feelings that vented themselves In moan Ings and bellowing sufficient to keep other parents from sleeping at night might bo pafJvMc from a sentimental viewpoint, but on Uidley street, whero they lived but did not slumber, such manifestations of bereave ment simply "got their goat" And they wanted Mrs. Isadore Silver's goat In re taliation. That was tho way Mrs. Fnnnlo Cohen, 536 Dudley street, nnd her neighbor, .Mrs. Mary Hoffner, E34 Dudley street, explained the casus belli (or bellow) to Lieutenant Barry, nt the 4th street and Snyder avenue station house, today. And worse than the slghtful goatly bleat ings, they asserted, were" the suicidal at tempts of "Annie" Silver, by consuming their choicest flowers, their doorknobs and their lingerie, until they and, their other suffer ing neighbors couldn't stand It any longer. Mrs. Silver, who lives nt 637 McKean street, tried to explain and to excuse "Annie." Hadn't little Louis Silver, 3H years old, been sick, and wasn't goat's milk ordered by tho doctor as necessary for him? And how could ono get goat's milk without a goat? And In order to be little Louis' wetnurse It was essential that "Annie" must bo separate from her own kids. So why shouldn't "Annie" mourn and moan In her maternal anguish? Or why In her grief shouldn't she wander around Dudley street or elsewhere searching for the chil dren of which she had been bereft? It was no more than goat nature. Louts must have his goat's milk even at tho expense of Dudley street's "goat" Lieutenant Barry la tender-hearted. He tried to appease the rival forces, but Anally compromised to the extent of ordering that If "Annie" again ventured forth after night fall. Sergeant Brodle and his squad were to pay no heed to her pathetic walling, but to corral her like an ordinary vagrant and bring hor to the station house. If her temporarily orphaned brood could not be located and she be restored to them, then I "Annio" would be sent to tho city pound to sleep ctcrnnlly and Dudley street resume Its Interrupted nocturnal dreams.
