MEETINQ OF
The city ochool board held the usual
meeting on Monday cvonlnf?,. when nil
the dlrectorB were present. About
twenty-five bills were ordered paid,
while some bills were referred to the
appropriation committee, to bo paid If
found correct. The application of Miss
Frances McDowell, of Elmlrn, for a
position as a teacher of French, Gor
man and English, was placed on flic.
A request was presented by Mr. Alex
ander from Prof. C. M. Leaner for tho
use of a room In the central building
to teach stenography, and, en motion
of Mr. Coogan, the request was grant
ed. Twenty-two residents of the I'd
mont district sent a petition nsltlng
the use of a room In the Belmont school
building for J. K. Itoache to use for
tho purpose of a night school. As the
law requires that tho room shall be
used, only by teachers employed by tho
city, tho petition could not bo granted,
but a petition for a night school under
the direction of tho school board could
bo arranged, nnd no doubt will be
started. Mr. Alexander reported a
message .from Prof. Hockenberry stat
ing that tho Alumni association had
raised $1,000 and had started a library.
The question therefore arose as to tho
control of the books, whether the
library was now owned by the district.
Tho subject of books of reference
brought up the question, where tho
books beloiiEing to the school should
bo kept. The entire subject was post
' poned for future consideration.

ommendation of the city controller that

walk fund to pay off the remaining In
debtedness on the extension of the

of tt .iwer committee on the ordi
nance for extending the sewer district
to Include East park was favorable.
Some statements were called for from
the city engineer, and then the ordi
nance was placed on llle. The ordi
nance fixing tho salary of tho chief of
the fire department at $100 per year,
was passed on the third reading nnd

THE OKIC'IiV OF JlAPl.K SUGAR.
An Old Legend Told by tho Algoquiu
Indians.
Tho true storv of tho discovery of
maple sugar making Is tho legend of
Woksis, tho mighty hunter. Going
forth one morning to tho chase he or
dered Moqua, his squaw, to have a
choice cut of moose meat boiled for him
when he should return, and that she
might be reminded of the time ho stuck
a stake In the snow and made a
straight mark out from It In tho place
where Its shadow would then fall. Mo
qua promised strict compliance, and as
he departed she hewed off the desired
tidbit with her sharpest stone knife,
and, fllllmr her best kokh with clean
snow for melting, hung It over tho fire.
Then she sat down on a bearskin nnd
began embroldcrlnc; a pair of mocca
sins with variously dyed porcupine
quills.
She became so absorbed In the work
that the kokh was forgotten till the
bark cord that suspended it was burned
off, and It spilled Its contents on tho
fire with startling explosion that filled
the wiswam with steam and smoke.
She lifted tho overturned vessel from
tho embers by a stick thrust into its
four-cornered mouth, nnd when It was
cool enough to handle she repaired It
with a now ball of bark and the kokh
was ready for serving again.
But tho shadow of tho stake had
swung so far towards the mark that
she knew there was no time to melt
snow to boll the dinner. Happily, she
bethought her of tho great maple bo
hind the wigwam, tapped merely for
the provision of a pleasing drink, but
the sweet water misht serve a better
purpose now. So she filled the kokh
with sap and hung it over the mended
fire.
In spite of impatient watching, it
presently began to boll, whereupon sho
popped tho ample ration of moose
meat Into it and set a cake of pounded
corn to bake on the tilted slab before
tho lire. Then she resumed her em
broidery, in which tho sharp point of
each thread supplied its own needle.
The work Krew more and more Inter
esting. So sho dreamed and worked, stitch
by stitch, while the hours passed un
heeded, tho shadow crept past the
mark, tho kokh boiled low and tho
cake gave forth tho smell of burning.
Alas! tho cake was blackened crisp,
and the once Jucy meat was a shrivel
ed morsal In tho midst of a gummy,
dark-brown substance. Sho snatched
kokh and tho cako from tho fire nnd
then, hearing her husband camliur,
she ran nnd hid herself In tho nearest
thicket of evergreens, for sho knew
that when ho found not wherewith' to
appease the rage of hunger he would
be seized with a moro terplble one
n gainst her.
Listening awhile with a quaking
heart, and catching no alarming sound
but aware Instead of nn unaccountable
silence, she ventured forth and peeped
Into the wigwam. Worksls sat by the
lire eating with his lingers from the
kokh, whllo his faco shone with an
expression of supreme content and en
joyment. With wonder sho watched
him devour tho last morsal, but her
wonder was greater when she saw
htm deliberately break the earthen pot
and lick the last vestige of ejioilert
cookery from tho shards. Sho could
not restrain a suprlsed cry, nnd, dis
covering her, ho addressed her:
'Oh, women of women! Didst thou
concolvo this marvel of cookery or has
Klosekur-Beth been thy Instructor?"
Uelng a woman sho had tho wit to
withhold tho exact truth, but permit
ted htm to believe whatever ho would.
"Let me embrace thee," he cried,
and upon his lips she tasted the first
maplo sugar.
The discovery was made public and
kokhs of sap were presently boiling In
every wigwam. All were so anxious to
got over atom of the precious sweet
that they broko the kokhs and scrap
ed the pieces, Just us Worksls. tho first
sugar eater, hud done. And that is
why tluro aro so many fragments of
broken pottery and so few whole ve.

CALLED TO MIND BY
THE LUETGERT CASE
Queer Romance In Real Life fn an
Indiana City.
UNDERTAKER'S CORPSE IDENTIFIED
Relatives Were Sure That tho He
mnlin Wcro Those of tho Ono Who
Had Ho Jlystcrlomly Disappeared,
Nevertheless tho .linn Illuisell, Alive
ntid Well, Was Aftcnvnrd Dis
covered. A dispatch from Indianapolis to tho
Chicago Tlmes-Hcrnld tells this Inter
esting romance In real life: The ques
tion of the Identity t Mrs. Luetgert
with tho woman who was seen in a
number of places by different persons
and which played such an important
part in the trial of the Chicago sausage-maker
has revived Interest In ono
of tho most remarkable cases of mis
taken Identity that ever occurred In
the west, and which would make tho
basis of a more thnn ordinarily Inter
esting romance, containing as It does
a record of devotion, of desertion, of
nn attempt to lose Identity and finally
of a denouement that laid the scheme
bare and gave to a widow tho conso
lation of burying tho body of her hus
band after a long and bitter struggle
In tho courts for Its possession.
Fifteen years ago James Pierce
Weaver was one of the most popular
undertakers In this city nnd was doing
a business that was rapidly making
him a fortune. Ho was the father of
an Interesting family and to all out
ward appearances wns supremely hap
py In his homo life as he was prosper
ous In business. One night In the fall
of 1883 a colored man called at his
homo and told him that a. man was
waiting to see him at the corner a few
rods away. Weaver went out to meet
the man, and as ho emerged from the
house the stranger placed a pistol to his
head and fired. Weaver fell to the
ground, and when carried Into the
house It was found that the ball had
entered Just below the right ear and
had come out at the neck.
William Eden surrendered to tho
police a few moments later and boldly
admitted tho crime, justifying it on
the ground of relations sustained to his
wife by Weaver. Weaver recovered in
a short time, sold out his business and
suddenly left the city. Mrs. Eden fol
lowed in a few days, and the charge
of attempted murder against Eden was
dismissed. Eden's bullet left two ugly
scars on Weaver's neck, and, as the
sequel proved, these were destined to
play an important part In the drama
still to be enacted.
WEAVER FOUND IN TEXAS.
Something Inter than ono year after
Weaver left the city an Indianapolis
man was visiting in Dallas, Texas, and
wns surprised when registering nt the
principal hotel to find that "mine host"
was. none other than James Weaver,
who had transposed his name and was
known to tho Dallas people as James
W. Pierce. Mrs. Eden, as Mrs. Pierce,
presided over tho domestic affairs of
the hostelry, and there was no sus
picion that the pair was other than
they seemed, for Weaver was prosper
ous and popular, and he and his sup
posed wife wore moving In good soci
ety. This condition of affairs was con
veyed to Mrs. Weaver and she sud
denly pounced down upon the pair and
caused their arrest, and with It a sen
sation. Under tho Texns law an In
jured wife gets halt the lino for prose
cuting such cases, and the Texas court
was In a humor to give her and the
state its full benefit. Weaver was
fined $2,000, and Mrs. Weaver returned
with $1,000 in her pocket, having re
fused an offer of $10,000 If she would
get a divorce.
Tho Dallas denouement caused the
hnsty flight of Weaver nnd his alleged
wife, and tho next Mrs. Weaver heard
of him he was living on a ranch, but
Just where she could not learn. She
was on tho point of going to Texas to
Institute another prosecution, when one
day, in December, ISSr., a man called
upon her and said that tho masonic
lodge of which Weaver was a member
had received a letter from him asking
for a demit, but the lodge had refused
to grant it. When tho letter wns writ
ten Weaver was at Atlanta, Ga., and
the purpose of tho caller seemed to be
to Inform the deserted wife of his
whereabouts.
HEARS OF HIS DEATH.
While they were yet talking the post
man delivered a letter to Mrs. Weaver
which boro the Atlanta postmark.
When opened it contained one of her
husband's old business cards and a
clipping from tho Atlanta Constitution,
giving the details of a wreck on the
Georgia Pacific railroad, on Dec. 14, In
which It was stated that James W.
Pierce, a wealthy Texas ranchman.was
killed. Tho clipping stated that Plerco
had visited Atlanta with two valuable
race horses, had spent money lavishly,
and was on his way homo when the
accident occurred.
There was nothing to Indicate who
had sent tho newspaper clipping and
tho old business card, but Mrs. Weav
er's excited imagination readily sup
plied all the missing links, and tears
lllled her eyes as she recalled her hap
piness beforo the evlt days came upon
her, and thought of her truant hus
band dying among strangers, but In
his last moments giving directions that
she. Instead of Mrs. Eden, should be
notified of his death.

MRS. PINKIIAM'S STANDING INVITATION.
Women suffering from any form of fomalo weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkhnm at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, rend and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her
private Illness to a woman; thus has been estahllshcd tho eternal confldenco be
tween Mrs. Pinkham and tho women of America which has never been broken.
Out of tho vast volume of experience which sho has to draw from, it is moro
than possible that she has gained tho very knowledge that will help your
case. She asks nothing in return except your good-will, and her advice has
relieved thousands. Surely any Woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does
not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance. Lydla K. Pinkham
Mcdielno Co., Lynn, Mass.
had lonp been In the employ of her
husband In the undertaklnR business,
Mrs. Weaver started for Atlanta the
next morning, but upon reachinc that
city found that another woman, who
had not appeared upon the scene, was
claiming tho body as that of her hus
band. To Mrs. Weaver this was the
evil Konlus that had obtruded herself
between tho wife and husband and lind
made her children moro than orphans,
and she determined with the first np
pearanco of the woman to cause her
arrest. The court had appointed some
one to look after the personal property
of Ranchman Pierce, and Mrs. Weaver
was required to make proof of her
Identity and also Identify her hus
band's remains.
IDENTIFIED THE REMAINS.
The body wns exhumed nnd the Iden
tification was complete. "That's Jim
Weaver," said Mr. Hedges, as soon as
the coilln was opened. "Now turn him
over and you will find two scars, ono
just under the right car and one on the
back of tho neck." These were the
scars made by Eden's bullet, and when
the corpse was turned over there they
were.
Mrs. Weaver was given possesion
of the body and property, but beiore
sho reached the train to return homo
the liody and property wns replevied
by order cf the Texas -woman, and
suit was filed for possession and nlso
ntralnst the railroad company for $10,
OOU damages for killing James W.
Pierce. Mrs. Weaver was thus forced
to remain in Atlanta, and tho next
day she filed suit apalnst th'o railroad
company for $10,000 for killing her hus
band, James W. Weaver.
The "battle in the courts then began,
but Mrs. Weaver was almost without
money nnd sho accepted a proposition
from the railroad company to dismiss
her suit for damages If tho company
would make common cause with her
for possession of tho body and prop
erty. In tho meantime a delegation of
Tcxans arrived at Atlanta and Identi
fied the remains ns those of James W.
Pierce, a ranchman that they had'
known for years. Tho witnesses were
legion and the court was about to sur
render tho body when Mrs. Weaver's
attorney stepped In with an Injunction.
The body was burled a third time.
Witnesses went from this city and
everyone recognized the body as that
of James Weaver.
KNEW HIM BY A nUNION'.
Dr. Wilson of the surgical Institute,
who knew Weaver well, caused the
body to be exhumed and ordered tho
socl's taken from the foot, saying that
he h'ad trimmed a. corn on the little
toe of the loft foot and treated a bunion
on the right foot a hundred times.
The bunion and corn were just ns ho
described them. A woman stenograph
er, who also Knew weaver wen, iucn
tilled him posttvely, and so did numer
ous other Tndlanapolls citizens who had
Known him for n score of years. Tho
fact that Weaver, under the name of
Pierce, was .In Atlanta; that ho wrote
from that city for a demit; that he had
changed his name to James W. Pierce,
and that some ono had sent one of his
old business cards to his wife Immed
iately after the accident, left no room
to dcubt his Identity, nnd tho scars,
corns and bunions and close resem
blance of tho features made everyone
postlve In making oath to tho Identity.
The body was exhumed four times
at the instance of Indiannpolis friends
and three times for Texas delegations.
Roberts Park Church, of which Mrs.
AVeaver was a member, mado up
money with which to prosecute her
claims, and tho liveliest Interest pos
Blble was manifested. The Texas wife
did not appear at Atlanta, and this
convinced Mrs. Weaver and her friends
that sho was none other than Mrs,
Eden and that for reasons best known
to herself she did not put In nn ap
pearance. Thus tho matter stood for
several weeks, hut In the meantime
the attorneys for the Texas woman
were not Idle.
REAL WEAVER IS FOUND.
While Mrs. Weaver was preparing to
go to Atlanta to prove her claims to
tho body and property, word 'reached
her that her husband had been found
In Chattanooga and had been taken. to
Atlanta In chargo of an oincer. Will
iam Ripley an old friend of tho fami
ly, was dispatched to Atlanta at mce
to expose this new attempt to defraud
tho Indianapolis widow. As ho
stepped from the train at the Atlanta
depot he saw a familiar figure stand
ing on tho platform and a familiar
voice exclaimed:
"Hello, Dill! What are you doing
hero?"
"Hello, Jlml" was the answer, and
Ripley stood face to face with James
Weaver.
"Why don't she get a divorce, mil?"
was tho next question from Weaver,
who seemed to bo oblivious to all .tho
commotion that ho had stirred up In
two cities.
Ripley replied that MrB. Weaver
would never permit him to become the
husband of tho Eden woman, and to
this determination she has steadily
adhered.
