PRESIDENT OF FRANCE
Now Lies Dead From an
Attack of Apoplexy.
HE SURVIVED BUT A FEW H0UBS
Feara of Disturbances In Parii Meat
urea Taken to Prevent
- Disorders.
Paris, Feb. 18. President Faure
died from apoplexy tonight.
It has been known for some time
that his health was weak, but the firt't
intimation that he was siok was given
at half past 6 this afternoon, when a
message was dispatched to the pre
mier, M. Dupuy, announcing that the
president was ill. M. Dupuy immedi
ately lepaired to the Elysee. All
medical efforts proved futile and the
president died on the stroke of 10.
It was not until 12 o'clock that the
news began to become known to the
general public in Paris. From this
time began 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 reported that the recently
formed league, known as La Patrle
Francaise, will actively push M. de
Beaurepaire's candidature.
Under the present exceptionally ex
citing conditions, anything may be ex
pected to happen. Much depends
upon what General Zurlinden, military
governor of Paris, as the head of the
military element, may decide to do.
M. de Freycinet has ordered the
troops confined to barracks today.
THE TREATY APPROPRIATION.
It Caused a Lone Debate In the Na
tional House.
Washington, Feb. 18. In the house
today the senate amendments to the
agricultural bill were nonoonourred in,
and the bill was sent to conference.
Without further preliminary business,
the house went into committee of the
whole, and resumed consideration of
the sundry civil bill.
When the paragraph appropriating
120,000,000 for the .paymeut to Spain
under the treaty of Paris was reached,
Wheeler made a point of order against
it: . His point of order waa that the
paragraph was obnoxions to rule 21,
invoked yesterday against the Nicaragua
canal amendment. If the treaty of
Paris was completed, if it was vital
ized by the ratification of the Spanish
cortes and the exchange of ratifications
had taken place, he confessed that the
treaty would be the law of the land
and the amendment would be in order.
He cited numerous decisions of tbe su
preme court in support of his position.
Then fol.lowed a long debate on that
portion of the bill, and without get
ting beyond that point the house ad
journed. '
In the Senate.
Soon aftei the senate convened today
the house joint resolution authorizing
the secretary of the navy to pay certain
laborers, workmen and mechanics at
the United States navy-yards and naval
stations 50 pel cent additional for work
performed in excess of eight hours per
day was called up and adopted.
The military academy appropriation
bill was passed without debate, and
consideration of the naval personnel
hill begun.
Morgan offered the Nicaragua canal
bill as an amendment to the river and
harbor bill, and had it referred to the
committee on commeroe now consider
ing that measure. .
. The military affairs committee re
ported the army reorganization bill,
which brought out an extended discus
sion. A house bill setting apart a certain
tract of land, containing 10 acres, in
Oklahoma to the Stella Friends Acad
emy and Church Association was
passed.
Consideration was then begun of the
postoffice appropriation bill. Practic
ally the only obstacle encountered by
the bill was the uommittee amendment
providing for special mail facilities on
the trunk lines from New York and
Washington to Atlanta and New Or
leans, and from Kansas City, Mo., to
Newton, Kan. '
The amendment which appropriates
$171,238 special mail facilities from
New York and Washington to Atlanta
and New Orleans, was then agreed to.
42 to 10. The amendment appropri
ating $25,000 for special mail lacilities
between Kansas City, Mo., and Mew
ton, Kan., was also agreed to. Mantle
of Montana, presented the credentials
of William A. Clark, and Turley of
Tennessee, presented the credentials of
Hon. William B. Bate, each eleoted as
senator from his state for the term of
ix years from March 4, 1899.
At the conclusion of the reading of
the postoffice appropriation bill, it was
allowed to go over.

GEORGE WASHINGTON'S DEATH.
Centenary to Be Observed by What
Was Called a "Mock Funeral."
On that December day, nearly a century
ago. when the body of Geu. George Wash
ington was laid away in the vault at
Mount Vernon, "mock ' funerals",, were
held in many towns and cities east of the
Alleghanies. Our great-grandparents were
hT their infancy in those far-away days,
and many of them saw these "mock fun
erals," which were conducted,' of course,
with all solemnity. From these sights of
childhood springs the conviction in the
minds of centenarians here and there that
they were witnesses of the real funeral.
Such is the trustfulness of old age in mem
ories of times long agtoe: "
Ninety-nine years of national life have
passed since then, and America hasvgiven
far more attention to anniversary celebra
tions of that happier event the birth of
its first President than to the yearly re
currence of the day of the funeral.
This year, however, the centennial of
that day will take place, aud the observ
ance "at Mount Vernon will be on Dec.
14, the anniversary of the day of the
death, instead of on the 18th, which was
the date of the funeral. It is intended,
nevertheless, that the observance shall
take the form of - a duplication of the
funeral services, going over the same
ground as in 1779. So elaborate are the
contemplated ceremonies that already
plans are being put into shape for the
great event. As Gen. Washington was a
Mason, the services over his body were
conducted, in part at least, by the Ma
sons, and so the anniversary services will
be under the direction of the Grand Lodge
of Virginia, Free and Accepted Masons.
The Grand Lodge will meet in Alexan-
Washington's first tomb.
TOMB HOLDING WASHINGTON'S BODY SINCE 1831.
dria, and, escorted by Lodge No. 4 of
Fredericksburg, in which Washington re
ceived his first degree; Washington Lodge
No. 22 of Alexandria, of which he was
the first master, and Federal Lodge of
Washington and representatives of every
Grand Lodge in America will go to Mount
Vernon and there repeat the services or
Dec. 18, 1799. It is expected that Presi
dent McKinley, himself a Mason, wiH
make an address, and after the ceremonies
a banquet will be given in W ashington.
The march to the tomb will pass, of
course, the old tomb in which Washing
ton's body was buried, and in which it
rested for more than thirty years, though
the objective point of the procession will
be the new tomb, where the coffin now is.
In his will Washington stated that "the
family vault at Mount Vernon requiring
repairs, and being improperly situated, I
desire that a new one, of brick, and upon
a larger scale, may be built at the foot of
what is called the Vineyard Inclosure, on
the ground which is marked out, in which
my remains and those of my deceased
relatives (now in the old vault), and such
others of my family as may choose to be
entombed there, may be deposited." Not
withstanding his request, it was not until
1831 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. In recent years it has
been rebuilt from a drawing in the Con
gressional Library, and it is now sur
rounded by an iron fence, and is kept up
with the same care as the new tomb. In
1837. when the marble sarcophagi in
which the coffins of Washington and his
wife rest were placed in the new tomb, the
key of that tomb was thrown into the Po
tomac river.
At the request of Martha Washington
door was made to the old tomb at the
time of the general's burial, inarJ
closing it with brick, as hnd been the cus
tom at previous burials. The widow was
sure that she would soon follow her hus
band. She lived only eighteen months af
ter the death of Washington, keeping en
tirely, it is said, to her room on the third
floor of the mansion, and upon her death.
in 1801, her body was laid beside that of
her husband in the old tomb. Washington
was buried in a mahogany coffin, lined
with lead, which was put in a case cov
ered with black cloth.
WASHINGTON A RICH MAN.
Onueil Thousands of Acr.es of Land
and Stock and Negroes.
When Washington died he was one o(
the richest men of bis time. He owned
lands and stock and negroes, and his es
tates amounted to thousands of acres. He
had houses in Alexandria, Va., and prop
erty in Washington. He had valuable
lands near the present site of Pittsburg.
He was throughout his life a money mak
er, and when he was a boy he got $5
a day and upward for his surveying. He
put his surplus money into lands, and an
advertisement in .a Baltimore paper of
1773 states that he had 20,000 acres of
land for sale on the Ohio river. His will,
which is now kept about twenty miles
from Washington, .in the safe of the old
court house at Fairfax, Va., gives a de
tailed statement of every article he pos
sessed down to the calves and sheep. His
personal state was then put down at
$532,000, end-this included. a vast amount
of tobacco, large numbers of cattle," sheep
and horses, nearly all of which he willed
to his wife. This will is now- kept in a
wooden box, the top" of which is covered
with glass. It was- torn in two some time
ago by some careless sightseer, and since
then no one has been allowed to handle it.
The account books which are kept in the
State Department show that AVashington
was very careful about keeping a record
of his expenditures. He put down every
thing. ' .
Washington's Golden Words.
Interwoven is the love of liberty with
every ligament of the heart.
To persevere is one's duty, to be silent
is the best answer to calumny.
Without virtue and without- integrity,
the finest talents and the most brilliant
accomplishments can never gain respect
or conciliate the esteem of the most valu
able part of mankind. -
Promote as an object. of primary Impor
tance, institutions for the general diffu
sion of knowledge. In proportion as the
structure of a government gives force to
public opinion, it is essential that public
opinion should be enlightened.
Observe good faith and justice toward
all nations; cultivate peace and harmony
with all.
- Let me warn you most solemnly against
the baneful effects of the spirit of party.
It exists, under different shapes, in
all governments, more or less stifled, con
trolled or repressed; but in those of the
popular form it is seen in its greatest
rankness, and is truly their worst enemy.
My first wish is to see this plague to
marlkind, war, banished from the earth,
and the sons and daughters of this weld
employed in more pleasing and innocent
amusements than in preparing implements
and exercising them for the destruction of
mankind.
Rather than, quarrel about territory,
let the poor, the needy, the oppressed, of
the earth, and those who want land, re
sort to the fertile plains of our western
country, the second land of promise, and
there dwell in peace, fulfilling the first
and great commandment.
IMgnlty and Usefulness.
During the American Revolution, an
officer, not habited in the military cos
tume, was passing a company of soldiers
at work making repairs on a redoubt. The
commander of a little squad was giving
orders to those under him, relative to a
stick of timber which they were endeavor
ing to raise to the top of the works. The
timber went up hard, and on this account
the voice of the little great man was often
heard in his regular vociferations of
"heave away! there she goes! heave ho!"
etc.
The officer before spoken of stopped his
horse when he arrived at tbe place, and
seeing the timber sometimes scarcely
move, asked the commander why he did
not take hold and render a little aid. The
latter appeared to be somewhat aston
ished, and turning to the officer with the
pomp of an emperor, said:
"Sir, I am a corporal." .
"You are not, though are you 7" said
the officer. "I was not aware of it." And
taking off his hat and 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 station, turning to the man
clothed "in a little brief authority":
"Mr. Corporal Commander," said he,
"when you have another such job and
have not men enough, send for the commander-in-chief,
and I will help you."

If sixty years. For more than fifteen years
Mr. Trundle was a slave to prostatic disease,
l ou men who are afflicted know what it means
Che days of unrest, the nights of torture and
uneasiness, the pain, the frequent calls to pass
water and the inability to do so. He could
icarcely get about the bouse, feeble, trembling
ind racked with pain from head to foot.
In this condition he read the startling an
nouncement In his paper that a marvelous new
method for curing prostatic disease had been
aiscovcred. Ho wrote to the address given for
full particulars, and at once obtained the
remedy ; in less than ten days more he had the
satisfaction of experiencing relief. His case
was chronic, deep-seated, and the chances of
recovery on account of his age were against
him. Yet sixty days of continuous use of the
famous Solvent-Altcrans method cured him.

Serene' comfort and happiness in ad
vanced years are realized by compara
tively fesv wonpen. -
Their hard lives, their liability to se
rious troubles on account of their pecu
liar organism and their profound igno
rance concerning themselves, all com
bine to shorten Ihe period of usefulness
and fill their lateryears with suffering.
Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make)
women strong'. ; She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor
ous health In old age. FrOm every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly com
ing the most convincing1 statements
from women, showing' the efficacy of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming' female ills. Hera
is a letter from Mrs. J. C. Orms, of 220
Horner St., Johnstown, Pa., which is
earnest and straight to the point ;
Dear Mbs. Piskham. 1 feel It my
duty to tell all suffering1 women that I
think your remedies are wonderful. I
had trouble with my head, dizzy spells
and hot flashes. Feet and hands wera
cold, was very nervous, could not sleep
well, bad kidney trouble pain in
cvaries and congestion of the womb.
Since taking your remedies I am better
every way My head trouble is all
gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am
cured of womb trouble. I can eat and
aleep well and am gaining in flesh. I
consider your medicine the best to bo
bad for female troubles."
The present Mrs. Pinkham's experi
ence in treating female ilia is nnparal
lelled, for years she worked Bide by
side with Mrs, Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past haa had sole charge)
of the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
aa many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
Beat of tha Disturbance.
Take up the White Man's Burden,
Be sure yon don't forget, -For

Must have their spanking yet.
Then get your breakfast, Dewey,
While Otis takes a whack
At the seat of the disturbance
Where the native pants hang slack.
