The Hon. Harvey Watterson vouch-
es for the following story of Geo. d.
Prentice:
During his latter years Prentice be.
came very incorporate, and for year
or two he wrote absolutely nothing.
One day he went into the office Of his
old stenographer and said: Get your
papers ready; ] am going to dictate
an editorial" The shorthand man
gathered his pen and ink, took a pad,
and sat down beside HIM. Prentice
said, Are you ready2" a nod was
the reply.
Grant thinks, said Prentice-and
relapsed into a semi stupor. AT last,
partially awaking, he continued
Have you got thatf'
Yes, replied the stenographer.
Grant thinks, y said Prentice again,
and again he went off into a doze.
Have you got that?" he said, again
awaking.
His amanuensis again assented and
Prentice went off again. In a mo-
ment he awaked and, looking sleepily
around, said: "Well, sir, will you
please tell me what in the - Grant
thinks2' and then he got up and went
out to take drink, and that was the
last of the editorial.
During the last year of his life, -
continued Mr.. Watterson, Geo. D.
Prentice did not drink a drop The
first day of the January of that year
he told Henry he intended to make
this the best year of his whole life
He carried out his good resolution,
and it is wonderful what AN amount
of excellent editorial matter he wrote
The paper could not keep up with
him, and it ALWAYS had copy on hand
At the close of the year he died, hav-
ing succeeded in making, as he had
resolved, his last wear his best.

Honor to Whom 1t is Due.
To the Editor Of the Times-star.

In your issue of the 18th inst, under
the head of LEGAL Personals" is state
menr which needs correcting 1t is stat
ed that one George w. Elliott, who
brought to Cincinnati one thousand dol
lars Isl 000) IN cash for well known
proprietary medicine concern of Roch-
ester, n Y, is now advertising manager
of a patent medicine concern on the
Hudson. 1t is the first statement which
needs correcting; Of the latter l know
lit lie and care less.
Mr.. Elliott did bring the money to
Cincinnati, bat he acted simply in the
capacity of messenger of the Rochester
house, which he represented. Tie facts
of she case are these:
During the height of the suffering
caused By the raging waters, when thou
sands of fugitives were starving from
hunger and suffering from cold, long
before the authorized call for aid was
sent out by our citizens, sir. H. H. War
ner, of Rochester N. Y, with that
wholesale generosity which is charac
teristic of the man, telegraphed me that
he had sent one thous md dollars cash,
and twelve hundred and fifty dollars
worth of Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, the entire proceeds OF the
sale of which, togt Their with the one
thousand dollars cash, were TO be given
for the benefit of the sufferers, as III my
judgment appeared best.
The goods were disposed of and,
believe. the entire proceeds. with the
one thousand dollars cash, We're given
to relieve The wants and miseries of the
sufe ers. For Mr. Elliott to try and APP
prupriate for his concern on the Hudson
the thunder Of reputable house to rat
tie up demand for his medicine, is not
OILY unjournahstic, but secidedly I'M
business like. If this concern on the
Hudson wishes to reap the b nett of
such magnanimity as Mr. Warmers,
why don't NJ Elliott have its proprietor
donate his two thousand two huudrtd
and fifty dollars? We d are say it would
be iudiciouly extended, and that
whatever glory and benefit there might
be in such an exhibition of generosity
would be cheerfully given him.
am led 70 make this statement from
a sense of justice and right and from
the fact that ir Is due Mr. Warner,
whose liberality our citizens enjoyed.

some interesting facts in regard to

the Wings nominated Scott in To
same city. In 1910, Polk by the Dem
ocrats, and Clay by the Wings, were
both nominated in Baltimore. For
more than aquarter Of a century there
has been a disposition to come West,
and since the Democrats started the
fashion by going to Cincinnati, where
Buchanan was nominated in 1856. "a
majority OF the conventions have been
held in the West. Oltof seventeen
