Death Of Cyrus a, Mccormick.

CHICAGO, LII, Nay l4.-Cyrus II.
Mccormick, the head of the
great Harvester Manufacturing Com
pany,and supposed to be one of the richest
men in Chicago, died at his home in this
city yesterday morning, aged seventy
five years. He had been an invalid for a
number of years.
Mr.. Mccormick was born in 1909 in
Rockbridge County, Va. He was a son
of Robert r. Mccormick, the farmer who
invented the original reaper in 1916, but
afterward abandoned it, owing to its i'm
projections. Deceased brought the in
vention to a successful completion in
1881, when twenty-one years old For
this invention, he was elected by the
French Institute as a member of the
Academy of Science and received the
decoration of the Cross Legion of Honor.
In politics he was Democrat, and mad
been prominent in his party as member
OF the National Committee. He founded
and literally endowed the Theological
Seminary of the Northwest, conducted
under the auspices of the PRESBYTERIAN
Church, and also endowed professorship
in the Washington and Union Theological
Colleges in Virginia.

To Crafty Her Prince.

NEW YORK, May l4.-Prlnce Carlo
Poniatowski, accompanied by his wife,
formerly Miss Maud Ely-Goddard, ar
rived here yesterday from Havre on the
steamer Normandy. A large party Of
friends met the couple at the pier
The Princess was attired in neat fit
ting travelling suit, while her husband
wore light check suit and light
overcoat and light high hat. The
couple were somewhat weary after
their long voyage and went
immediately to the home of the Goddards
in East Forty-second street. The Prin-
cess is tall and very handsome, with large
brown eyes and a wealth of golden hair
Her manner is dignitied and stately. She
went abroad two years ago with her pa
rents and met Prince Poniatowski
in Nice. He is member of one
of Russia's most noble families
and is an enthusiastic sportsman. He is
about thirty-fve years old, not quite six
feet tail, has nut brown hair and fine
blonde mustache. The couple were mar
ried at the American Episcopal Church at
Paris on April last. They do not intend
to remain in this country long, but will
visit Newport during the coming summer.
Their object in coming here is merely to
crafty desire of the Prince to see the
birthplace of his bride.

THE HIDDEN HAND.
1t is Accidentally Discovered by a Penn
sylvania Trout Fisher.

Sylvanla Trout FlSher.
WARREN, Pa, May John Grenier,
an oil well driller, while trout fishing in
the Cherry Grove oil region, found
hand lying on rock near the margin of
the brook. twas badly mutilated, and
evidently had been the hand of large
man. From its appearance it could not
have been severed from the man for more
than few hours. The only explanation
that can be given is that it must have be-
longed to some victim of nitro
glycerine explosion, but no ex-
ploson is known to have occurred
in the vicinity. The Mooniighters, men
who torpedo oil wells at night with nitro
glycerine against the legal rights of the
Roberts patent, frequently Secrete cans
of the material in the woods until they
can remove it without detection to points
where 1t is wanted for use. 1t has hap
pened that woodchopperS, in telling trees
in the OIL regions, have had them fall
where nitro-glycerine was thus hidden In
the bushes unknown to them, and fright
full explosions have followed. An oil
prospector once fired his revolver at
Il pheasant which he had flushed
while going through the woods in the
cherry grove region. The bullet struck
/. hidden can OF ntro-glycerne and ex-
ploded it, but the distance at which the
man was standing saved him from serious
injury.
The opinion is that the man whose hand
Greinor found on Saturday exploded can
of this kind in some way and was blown
to pieces, the hand being thrown to the
spot where it was discovered. Greiner
made a search, but could find no trace of
other remains.

GRAND HAVEN, MICH, May 1.-THE
greatest excitement prevailed here last
night over a strike of mill hands, and
fears of bloodshed were expressed Their
wages were reduced Monday by the Cut.
Ter & Savage and White & Friant Lumber
Mills one shilling day. Thirty of the
latter's men struck, and the
men in two of the four mills ope.
rated by Cutler & Savage, quit work on
account of the threats of the thirty strik-
erS. A new gang of men were imme.
diately raked together by White & Friant,
and the Sheriff swore in large force OF
deputies to protect the mill and laborers
The striking laborers at Cutler & Sayage's
asked for a conference with the firm at 2
p m to-day, which was provocative of
much bad blood, the company being firm
and refusing to restore wages, saying
they would keep the mills shut down
rather than yield. The men set fire to
Cutters yard, but the flames were extiu.
guished. Over 100 men advanced on
White 4 Friant's mill yesterday and were
met by the proprietors at the head of their
new gang of men, who swore loyalty to
their employers. The strikers carried
red flag and were armed with various
weapons. They were cowed, and
skunk away before the deter
mined attitude of the employers,
but promised to return and wreak their
vengeance on the property at night.
Fearing violence an extra large number
of deputies were sworn in by the Sheriff.
Large crowds of men, armed and other
wise, are para1ing the streets. Many of
the men are half drunk and carry ugly
sticks. A spark will set the mob on fire,
and then no one knows the end. Millions
of dollars worth of property could be
destroyed here In an hour.
