continues In a persistent and hopeful mood
orei the project aud seems to be gradually
drawing It within tbe range of ultimate
aucorae. Another meeting was held last
evening in the rooms of the (1. A. It., Refo
wlch building, and the question of site was
again under discussion.
Hon. M. 0. Watson is chairman of the
committee on site and has been diligently
poshing the matter. Last evening he pre
sented a blue print which he caused to hp
mad by Borough Surveyor Gregory, show'
ing surveys of the plot of ground on the
monntatn between the Annunciation and
Odd Fellows' cemeteries upon which it la
now proposed to place the monument. The
plot ft bound by the two roads leading to tbe

by tbt highway leading up the mountain and

The cemetery trustees have inspected the
plans ftnd given them considerable attention
and Mr. J. J. Powell reported to the monu

posed t the new project. Before definite

must again bo taken before Shenandoah

cemetery. It Is probable that this step will
be taken next Monday ovening.
in order that the general committee may
be able to get tho matter in some definite

and that tho committee ou site meet next

REV. M'PAKE MYSTERY.
The Coroner.'" Iury Decide That
Young frlest Was Not Murdered.
the
Philadelphia, Nov. 13. The corpner's
Jury of inquest yesterday rendered the
following verdict in, the caae of Rev.
Henry J. McPake, the young priest who
was found dead back of St. Paul's
academy on Wednesday morning: "We
find that the Rev. Henry J. McPake
came to his death from uraemia."
It was the only verdict that could
be returned In view of the fact that
Dr. Cnttell, the coroner's physician, had
officially reported uraemia as the cause
of death, and in view of the further
tact that the police have utterly failed
to clear up the mystery surrounding
the case.
Dr. J. II. Jlonaghan, Father He
Pake's physician, declares that the
case was no murder, but that the priest
died of uraemia, as Dr. Cattell stated
at the autopsy.
The testimony Introduced at the In
quest tended to prove that Father Mc
Pake had not been In robust health
for some time.
Superintendent of Police Linden said
that no further Investigation, would he
made, It being satisfactorily shown
that there was no foul play. When
asked to account for the presence of the
dead body In the yard of the academy
the superintendent said:
"My belief is that the man wrb In
sane; that he was wild from worri
ment and the ravages of disease, and
that he Wandered to the academy while
In that fit of mental aberration."

against a continuance, but after a
lengthy consultation between Judges
Bennett and Lynch it was decided to
continue the cases until January. The
district attorney asked for a contin

wounded men were still In the hospital
and could not be present on Monday

K olive,
Tbo possibility of being outclassed in tbe
matter of quality by any other shoe dealer is
too remote to be considered here. The rule,
that shoes which do not come' up to our
standard of excellence should be returned to
the makers, has kept our store free from
worthless stock. All our goods are fresh and
thoroughly up-to-date. Our line of women's
and men's fall aud winter shoes at $1 U5 is a
sample of what prices are here. Values are
big, prloea are small and satisfaction goes
with every pair of shoes we sell.
