FOREST LAWN Memorial Park
Cemetery, Omaha, offers an excep
tionally beautiful spot close to the
city, where nature lends a pleasant
touch to sad occasion, when man in
the transition goes to the Great Be
yond. An Institution that is well
conducted and kept in the very best
of condition.
With the age oi auto funerals and
rapid transit the large and well
cared for burial estates has taken its
place in our civilization.
During the past decade the private
burying ground and small unkept
cemetery have fallen into desuetude
and are gradually passing away. This
cemetery has become a center for the
families all over this part of the
state.
Think Torch
Victim May be
Freed Convict
Tentatively Identity Body at Brain
ard as That of Harry Sharp;
Jnst Out of Prison.
The body of the Bralnard "torch"
murder victim was tentatively iden
tified as that of Harry Sharp, thirty
nine, after Deputy Warden Kavan
augh of the state penitentiary Fri
day night furnished Sheriff T. J. Rob-
ers of David City with the descrip
tion of the former convict released
from the prison Oct. 25.
Kavanaugh said the description of
the torch victim given by Roberts
tallied with the official prison record
of Sharp. He was five feet eight
inches tall, weighed about 143
pounds, had light brown hair and
fair complexion.
The man found in the burning
schoolhouse at Brainard had his
teeth extracted ten or fifteen years
ago according to a dentist that ex
amined he body before the inquest.
The records at the penitentiary show
ed that Sharp had no teeth.
He did not tell officials here where
he was going when he left the pris
on. His father, Ike Sharp, lives at
Bolcaw, Mo.
Sheriff Roberts indicate to Kavan
augh robbery might have been a mo
tive for the murder, altho Sharp, at
the time of his release had only 1 60
or $60 in his possession.
Kavanaugh said Sharp had been
sentenced from Dodge county - to a
year in the penitentiary for forgery
and had but recently been released.
Information given to Sheriff Rob
erts- indicated-, that -Sharp had : deft
North Bend Sunday. Articles in, his
possession tallied closely with those
found near the body in the fireswept
schoolhouse at Brainard. Acquaint
ances will go from North Bend
where Sharp had been working, to
David City Saturday in an attempt to
complete identification of the corps.
The North Bend persons furnished
Sheriff Roberts with descriptions
which he declared fitted exactly the
ease of the murdered man.
The body was found burned al
most beyond identification In the
schoolhouse fire at Brainard Wed
nesday when several persons were
fighting the blaze. . The coroner s
jury which considered the case
Thursday declared the man had been
slain. Evidence brought before the
jury indicated the man was first mur
dered and his body then dragged
into the schoolhouse, which was set
on fire.
STAND AGAINST PRESIDENT
Washington The Army and Navy
Journal said Friday:
"We think the president finds he
has the bear by the tail. It is already
apparent the country will not accept
the conclusions of his own commit
tee. Indeed, the door has been open
ed wide for the facts to come troop
ing out. And while no committee
will agree with the Gardiner charge
of 'abysmal ignorance; there is lit
tle doubt the people which prevents
the United States from possessiong
that equality upon the seas which its
vital Interests require, and which the
administration, with a blare of trum
pets, declared had been achieved by
the London treaty."
