ADO you know what killed Henry Clayf"
my genial Kentucky story-teller asked me

died Of q broken heart, not because he lost
the presidency, but his son. Henry Clay.

West Point. where he graduated second in
his class After four months in the army he
resigned; and began practicing law in Lex.
ington, Living with his father at Ashland
Not a young man in Kentucky promised bet
ter things than no did.
when the Mexican war broke out he was
determined to 60. His father made NO OBJ
lection, and he went out as lieutenant colonel
of the First Kentucky regiment. AT the
battle Of Buena Vista, Santa Anna, with
32,OOo troops, nearly overwhelmed Gen.
Taylor, with about one-eighth that number.
Clay fought bard. but, as his regiment was
falling back, a shot went through both legs.
He was not mortally wounded, and three
men picked him up to carry lin or tue
field. 1t soon became evident that
the Mexicans would oyertake them.
Save yourselves, boys he said, and, taking
the pistol which his father had given him, he
handed it to one OF the men with the words,
Take this and return it to my father. Tell
him l have no further use for it, With that
they dropped him and ran after the retreat,
ing troops. The last they saw of Clay he
was lying on his back, fighting u squad of
Mexicans with his sword. Next morning
his body was found, hacked to pieces and
mutilated by the towards who had killed
him. The pistol came to his father, then a
senator, and, though he lived several years
after. l am convinced that he died from the

Ills ABsallant attempts Suicide After
Firing Two Shots at Ilis Victim.
MoNTRosE June 15.--Joo Drinker, mem
Der OF one of the oldest families in Susuue-
hanna county, while standing last night in
front of Sparks's drug store, on Main street,
drew a revolver and shot three times in
rapid succession at William II. Cooper, the
bank er, who was on the pavement near
him. Cooper fell bleeding to tho sidewalk
At the third shot c. NJ. Crandall sprang upon
Drinkor, and, with well-directed blow
knocked him senseess. Mr. Cooper was car-
ricd into the drug store, whore II hasty OK
animation disclosed the fact that two bullets
had entered his body, one in the lower part
of his back and the other in tho hip. He
was taken home.
Drinker was carried into Deckers store,
unconscious from Crandall's blow, and was
afterward removed TO tho jail. There is no
reason which can be given for the shooting,
but it is supposed the would-bo assassin was
actuated in his crime through somc trouble
about money affairs. Drinker was never
considered very bright, although he is not
thought to bo insane. Mr.. Cooper had some
thing TO do in settling up tho estate of
Drinkers parents, who died some years ago,
and IL is supposed he held some spite against
Cooper in connection with that transaction,
Thcre Is n rumor on the street that Drinkor
drank something from bottle supposed to
be poison before doing the shooting. lIo ro.
mainod unconscious about half an hour after
the shooting and since then has been vomit-
ing freely. The physician who is attending
him says he will be all right in the morning.
Mr.. Cooper is very dangerously wounded
but the physicians cannot say whether his
wounds are necessarily fatal or not, and can-
not decide until after the effect Of the. shock
has passed Off Mr.. Cooper's daughter was
married last Thursday to Mr.. Oscar Keen, of
New Jersey, and the tragedy comes doubly
hard at this time. Tho wounded man IS ono
of most prominent residents of Montrose, and
