VON KLEIN'S LETTERS HELD
PriMncr Belleted to Have Written
Five Found on Brother.
Five letters which Sheriff Word be
lieves were written by E. E. C. Von
Klein, held In the County Jail on
charges of larceny and bigamy, and
which it Is now thought lie was aw
tempting to smuggle out to be mailed,
were taken from Louis Von Klein as
he was leaving the Jail Friday night
after a visit to his brother. Sheriff
Word turned the letters over to Dis
trict Attorney Evans, who will present
them to the grand Jury for further In
vestigation. The letters were addressed and
stamped, it is said, for which reason
they were not opened, and the contents
are as yet unknown. Louis Von Klein,
when questioned yesterday by the offi
cers, said the letters were his. He was
asked if he would swear to that, but
answered that he would make no fur
ther statement than that the letters
were his. The names of the persons
to whom the letters were addressed
were not given out.

Instrumental musical selections were on

"It is an exalting spectacle," said
Rabbi Wise, "when so many come to
gether to pay respect to their dead.
"Let us so live that when our names
are called here and answered only by
the tolling bell, our places shall not
be empty, but rather tilled with pleasant
memories. Let us highly resolve that
our virtues shall not be chiseled on
stone alone. Iet us resolve today to
Inscribe our memories upon the hearts
of our fellowmen by words and deeds.
to rise as a monument more lasting
than brass when we are no longer here. '

"Amid the falling of the leaves,
under the gray skies of Winter," said
Mr. I'pton, "we hold our 'lodge of sor

"O Ye who have gone from our circle.
why shouTd we think of you in pity?
Why should the shipwrecked sailor
pity those who have reached the safety
of the shore? Our brothers are not
absent: they are here. Like a choir
Invisible, they surround us. e soar
on wings of love, of hope, of cherished
deeds and happy smiles. They stretch
forth their generous and tender hands
