K I ward Mitchell, at one time a
leading tigure on the Chicago board
of trade, organizer of a corner In
wheat in 18GS, and once worth mil
lion, I dead at the county lioapllal
in Chicago at 70 years of age, a pau
per. Ilia fall came In 1870, only two
years after he had cornered the wheat
market and made a fortune. Since
then he has lived In the hope that he
would regain hid former wealth.
But his failure had so Bhaken him
that he never regained hla position.
but grew poorer and poorer until in
recent years he depended entirely
upon charity.
Jur4 before her death In Coffee
ville, Kas , last week, la a humble
two room hut, of Mrs. Adeline
tipears, 64 years old, the woman
called for a lawyer and made a will,
bequeathing $40,000 In cash to her
husband, a day laborer. The money
ahe declared, is on deposit in an Oak
land (Cal.) bank. The woman aud
her husband had lived here for sev
enteen yearn, and had always been
in apparently poor circumstances.
Mrs. H pears had often spoken to her
neighbors about a legacy her father
had left her, held In trust for her by
her stepmother, In an Oakland bank.
Hhe refused to give her reasons for
not claiming the money during her
lifetime' Hhe was married to Har
vey 8pears in Newton, Kan , In 1886.
Letters bear out the woman's asser
tions about the money.
Hlxt'en thousand babies were born
in New York In the last four mouths
and of these less than ten began
their existence in the millionaires'
district In Fifth avenue, so Ki'ginter
of Vital 8tatU ios Gil Toy retorts.
He has made a cenaus of the births
in the city, and finds that Fifth
avenue has the lowest birth rate of
any street In town. The heaviest
birth rate Is on the F.ist Bide, near
Division street, where the conditions
are the reverse of those In Fifth ave
nue. The coming census by the
health department will determine
not only what street, hut what house,
produces the most b.tbles. Fifteen
deputies have already been detailed
on the work, and the number will be
increased to&lxiut 400 in a few weeks.
The primary otjirt of the movement
by the health department Is to de
termine the exact population of the
city for a basis of the birth and death
rates.

that place, who was expected to die,
had his life saved by Dr. King's
New Dliicovery for Consumption.
He wilte: "I endured insufferable
agonies from Asthma, but jour New
Discovery gave me Immediate relief
and soon thereafter affcted a com
plete cure." Similar cures of Con

and Grin are numerous.' It's the
peerless remedy for all throat and
lung troubles. Price 60c, and Jl 00.

was born In 1847. He was the pro
prietor of the Cliff House at the time
of his death.
A Thoughtful Man.
M. M. Austin of Winchester, Ind.,
knew what to do in the hour of need.
His wife had such an unusual case of
stomach and liver trouble, physicians
could not help her. He thought of
and tried Dr. KiDg's New Life Fills
and she got relief at once, and was
dually cured. Only 25o at all drug

Hermann has returned from Wash
Ington and on Monday went before
the' federal court in Portland and
pleaded "not guilty" to the charges
made against him in the land fraud
cases, lie does not appear to te
very much worried over the out
come of his cases, and looks as hale,
hearty and jovial as when stumping
the district. He has little to say on
land fraud questions, as he has not,
he says, had time to talk the matter
over thoroughly with his attorneys.
He has engaged the Arm of Dolph,
Mai lory, Simon A Gearln to defend
him in bis light with Heney. After
a few day in Portland he will go to
bis home at Roseburg, where he will
remain until the cases are finished.
