Paris, Feb. 18. Prosident Fame
died from apoplexy tonight.
It lias been known for some time
thut his health was weak, but the first
intimation that lie was siok was given
at half past 0 this afternoon, when a
message was dispatched to the pre
mier, M. Dupuy, announcing that the
president was ill. M. Dupuy immedi
ately lepaiied to the Elysee. All
medical efforts proved futile and the
president died on the stroke of 10.
It was not until 13 o'clock that the
news began to become known to the
genoral publio in Paris. From this
time bogan a continuous arrival of pub
lie men. Strict orders, however, were
issued, and only members of the cabi
net weie admitted to the Elysee.
The report spread rapidly throughout
the city, and large crowds soon assem
bled in the vicinity of the palace.
It is leported that the recently
forniod league, known as La Fatrle
Francaise, will actively push M. de
Boa a ro pa ire's candidature.
Under the present exceptionally ex
citing conditions, anything may be ex
pected to happen. Much dopends
upon what Oeneial Zurlinden, military
governor of Paris, as the head of tho
military element, may. decide to do.

GEORGE WASHINGTON'S DEATH.
Centenary to Be Observed by 'What
wn Called a "Mock Funeral."
On thnt December day, nearly a century
ago, when tlie body of Uen. George Wash
MKton was laid awuy in tho vault at
Mount Vernon, "mock funerals" were
held in many towns and cities east of tlie
Alleghiuilca. Our Brent-grandparents were
in their infancy in those far-away duvs.
and ninny of them saw these "mock fun
erals," which were conducted, of course,
with nil solemnity. From these sights of
childhood springs the conviction In the
minds of centenarians here nnd there that
they were witnesses of the real funeral.

TIIE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is duo not only to the originality nnd
simplicity of tho combination, but also
to tho cure and skill with which it la
manufactured by scientific processes
known to tho Camkohnia Fio Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
truo nnd original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs Is nmnuf acturcd
by tho Camkoknia Fio Svbup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. Tho high standing of tlie Cali
fornia Fio Si itup Co. with the medi
cal profession, nnd the satisfaction
which the genuine Bymp of Figs has
given to millions of fumilies, makes
the name of the Company a guaruuty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advunco of all other luxatires,
ns it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. Iu order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

course, the old tomb in which Washing
ton's body was buried, and Itt which it
rested for more than thirty years, though
the objective point of the procession will
be the new tomb, where the eottin now is.
In his will Washington stated that "the
family vault nt Mount Vernon requiring
repairs, nud being improperly situated, I
desire that a new one, of brick, and upon
a larger scale, mny be built nt the foot of
what is called the ineynru luelosure, on
the ground which is marked out, In which
nty remains and those of my deceased
relatives (now In the old vault), nnd such
others of my family ns may choose to be
entombed there, may be deposited." Not
withstanding his request. It was not until
IKit that the new tomb was built and
Washington's body placed therein. And
then the old vault was allowed to fall into
a state of decay. Iu recent years it hns
been rebuilt from a drawing In the Con
gressional Library, nnd it Is now sur
rounded by an Iron fence, nnd Is kept up
with the same enre ns the new tomb. Iu

w hich the coffins of Washington and his
wife rest were placed in the new tomb, the
key of thnt tomb was thrown into the Po

seeing the timber sometimes scarcely
move, asked the commander why he did
not take bold and render a little aid. The
latter appeared to be somewhat aston

pomp of nn emperor, said;
"Sir, I am a corporal."
"You arc not, though are you?" said
the officer. "I was not awaje of it." And
taking off his hat nnd bowing, "I ask your
pardon, Mr. Corporal."
Upon this he dismounted his elegant
steed, flung the bridle over the post, and
lifted till the sweat stood in drops on his
forehead. When the timber was elevated
to its proper stntion. turning to the man
clothed "in a little brief authority":
"Mr. Corporal Commander," said he,
