The premiums amounted to $40, 900. A couple
of days ago a telegram was received by Mr..
Sheppard stating that Mr.. Harwood had fallen
from his horse and was probably killed. He
telegraphed his company in New York and re-
ceived instructions to go at once to Florida. Mr.
Sheppard, Mrs. Harwood, ard Miss Fannie
Harwood, and Mr.. Whitlock, of Marietta, left
for Florida. They reached ST. Augustine, and
taking carriages were driven to the grove, TWEEN
ty-fve miles in the interior 1t was found that
Mr. Harwood was buried the day before, as
it was impossible to keep the remains
out of the. ground any longer. The cause
of his death was ascertained to be
as follows: In attempting to mount a fractions
horse in front of his door the saddle turned sud
denly. and Mr.. Harwood was thrown to the
ground. No one saw him fall but soon after
ward he was discovered standing by fence,
and the horse was near by, with the saddle par
TALLY turned. Mr.. Harwood complained Of hav-
ing wrenched his hip and went into the house
and laid down. He made no serious complaints,
but in an hour or two he was visited, and he
asked for whisky. He took some from his own
trunk. About 10 o'clock he seemed to be getting
on all right About o'clock he was visited and
was found to be in dying condition. He lived
only ten minutes. An inquest was held and
DR.. Garrison, of Dayton, made a post-mortem.
He pronounced the death the result of concus-
sion of the brain. There is report that Mr.
Harwood committed suicide, and although there
seems 60 be no real ground for such belief q
further investigation will be made by the in
Furance companies.

A Funeral Incident.

New Haven News.
Not many days ago the new postmaster was
attending funeral out at Evergreen Cemetery.
The grief of one of the bystanders was noticed
to be excessive. His sorrow took him all around
that grave. He didn't stop moving, still weep
ing most unctuously until he found himself at
the foot of the mound and just to the left of Mr..
English. Then he got time to say, between his
sobs
"Mr. English this is sad-very sad"
Eyes, it is" was the reply.
What a loss it is to his family, Mr. English. .
ut Is : very severe blow, indeed
The ice was broken. The anticlimax came
like shot to the astonished postmaster.
mr.. English, couldn't you-couldnt you find
me place in the postoffice when Sperry gets
out-Im Democrat, you know."

Death of N. B. Harwood, Who Carried Policies
Calling for 100000.

ATLANTA, Ga, May 26-The death, by acci
dent or suicide mot yet determined of n b.
Harwood. at his grove on Halifax river, in Flor
Ida, has thrown life insurance circles into COM
motion. He carried life insurance of $4,000 of
which 800, 900 was in the Equitable Mr.. Harwood
has a remarkable history. He was ffty-fve
years DID, and was born in Bennington, VT. lie
moved out West a number of years ago, and
went into the dry goods business in 81. faui'
Minn., subsequently establishing branch house
in Minneapolis, where he employed 500 persons
He afterward failed for 81, 700, OOO SD 0OO OF
which was found TO have been covered In by MS
wife They moved to Florida and invested $oo,-
900 in Florida lands, securing 1000 acres in one
tract All of it is now under fence, the fence
on one line being eight miles long. The prop
erty developed very rapidly, and there are l2O
acres in young orange grove, said by experts
TO be the finest Of its age in Florida. The value
of the property is estimated at from $3.50, 900 to
$500 000 Mr. Harwood took a fancy to Atlanta,
and adopted it as his summer home lie had
three daughters, one son and his wife, all OF
whom, except the son, were sent to Atlanta
The daughters were put III school here Ihey
were here when the death occurred last week
Between 1865 and 1870 Mr.. Harwood insured MS
life in the Northwestern for $1l 300 After start
ing bis orange grove, IN which all his money was
invested he decided to increase his insurance
saying that if he should die his wife might be
unable to continue the work he had mapped out,
and might lose the property before it became as
valuable rs time was sure to make it; if he could
live, he said, he would soon have all the income
he wanted. In October, 1883, he took $48. 900 of
insurance. ana in February of last year he in
creased his insurance $40, 900, and in June he
talked of a still further increase. Mr.. Sheppard,
of the United States Life, negotiated with him,
went on North with him and placed the insurance,
making 5000 900 in all, and divided among the
different companies as follows

DANGEROUS MEDICINES

It Is well known that in every house
hold a great deal of useless and IN
necessary medication Is carried on by
parents among the youthful mem bers
of the family. As rule, resort is had
to medicines that are practically safe,
and which experience has shown 10 be
innocuous but there Ia also, we fear,
a tendency to employ drugs which
should only be administered by the
family ply stefan, without calling in
medical aid. An instance OF this was
furnished by q trial which took place
at Hamilton, where father was placed
IN q dock, on charge of culpahle
homicide, for ad administering four drops
of laudanum TO a child five weeks Old,
with the result that it became uncou.
seiOus aud died within the next few
hours.
There was no evidence that the med.
cine had been given with any erimina.
intent, and the jury very properly ac-
quilted the parent, whose mental suffer
ing must have been sufficient punlAt-
ment for the indiscretion Of which be
had been guilty but the facts brought
out In connection with the case CANNOT
DO too widely known. They may serve
to Impress more forcibly on the public
| what Is well known and universally al
| United, that there il extreme suscepti
| bi,ity on the part of children, especial )
within the first few weeks OF life, TO u.
| influence of opium in any form, aaa
shat ii should never be given excep
under medical guidance and sanction
The evidence of some of the witnessei
at the trial showed the hazy notion
that exist as 10 the adm Illustration o.
laudanum TO children, some boi2iu.
that a drop OF laudanum for each weel
OF the age was perfectly safe, whit,
others were not prepared TO go sucl
lengths. Where the issues involved ar
those OF life or death, it would be wei
to follow the rule we have given above
for, where child is i'll enough 10 r,
quire an opiate, the sooner medical al
vice is procured the better.

THE Philadelphia Press has been
looking over the Senatorial fsld to 100
how the Senate will stand in the next
Congress. II finds that the Democrats
will have to gain four mem bers to make

at least the Republicans can res. easy
30 far as radical legislation is con-
cerned which may affect the business

of course elect Democratic Senator
