DEATH OF MRS. BAYARD,
Passing away Peacefully-foiIowin,
Quickly after Her Daughter.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Mrs. Thomas
Francis Bayard, wife of the Secretary of
State, died this morning at half past s
o'clock. Her death was not unexpected.
Since Thursday morning her family has
had little hope Of her recovery. The
shock caused by the sudden death of her
daughter two weeks ago was a blow from
which she never rallied, although she
surprised her husband and children by
the strength she seemed to gather after
the first effect. After the funeral of her
daughter, Mrs. Bayard went about the
house for q day or two, attending to little
household duties as had been her way
before, but it was beyond the strength Of
q woman broken in health for many wears
and n week ago she was again Frustrated.
Her physician, DIR. Gardner, was hopeful
until Thursday morning, when conres
ton OF the brain rendered her condition
hopeless. MIR. Bayard, who after return
ing from his daughters funeral, had
gone to the State Department every day
Tor a little while, was summoned from a
Cabinet meeting by a note from one of
his daughters saying that her mothers
illness alarmed them, and begging him to
come home at once. He said Immediate.
ly, Il have no further hope" From that
time Mrs. Bayard grew worse, slowly
sinking, For t~hirty-six hours before her
death she was unconscious. She passed
away as peacefully as if in sleep.

THE United States Senators are show.
ing a good deal of self control in the
face of the Presidents refusal Through
the Attorney GeneraD to produce certain
papers which they deem necessary in the
proper exercise of their rights. Of course
they can get the papers if they choose by
referring the matter of such removals
and appointments as they please to GER
tain committees for examination. That
would bring not only the papers, but Mr..
Garland too, before them. Or they might
consider the Presidents nominations in

cutive session the excuse for refusing the
Senate the facts which they seek. The
probability is, however, just now that
the difficulty will be overcome by refer.

ing the admission of Dakota was both
interesting and forcible. He made a
strong point when he observed that the
Territory had been in large measure set,
tied by the veterans of the Union Army,
who had been rewarded by the gratitude
of a saved Nation with grants of land i n
the Territories. By way of furnishing
them for their fidelity to the Nation, it is
natural that the Democratic party should
try to d~isfranchise them as long as pos
sible. But il may rest assured that this
policy will not pay in the long run.

TooTHACHE, FALSE TKRTH, EXTRACTION
AND AN.EsTHETiCs,
Yesterday GAZETTE reporter called
upon a well-known dentist TO CLEAN some
facts In connection with dentistry. In re-
ply to the question; "What are the prin-
cipal causes of toothache and other dental
diseases?n he said that cold was one
cause, sweetmeats another, and excess a
third; while In many cases diseases OF the
teeth seemed hereditary. When asked
what were the principal diseases OF
the teeth, he answered "Abscess,
carries, enamel, eruption Of wis
dom teeth, hemorrhage after extraction,
loosening, necrosis after acute diseases,
odontomes, syphilitic teeth and tooth
ache. The best preventive OF dental
diseases in his opinion was to avoid the
causes already mentioned, and keep the
teeth quite clean. Before going to bed
and after eating IS the best time TO cleanse
the teeth. If tooth powder is used, II
should be very fine. Dental diseases
seem to be most prevalent among the
female sex, and occur most commonly be.
tween the ages Of IL and 22. Such diseases
are not nearlyn so COMMON in England
as In this country, owing, perhaps, to the
stronger constitution of the people, the
different climate and palmer diet. Tn,
dentist next referred to transplantinl
teeth, and the reporter asked II an undel
! tooth could be used as an upper tooth, o.
IL a tooth extracted from the jaw OF on,
person could be made to take root In tina
of another. The doctor shook HIS head
and said be would not guarantee so much
but that some teeth, II reinserted aftei
extraction, may take root and grow
At this point he brought for
ward a queer looking machine, which
| he called an "antomatic inhaler" o
the latest kind, He said the cylinder
contained over 200 gallons Of nitrous-oX
ide gas, but the reporter had his doubt:
about putting hundreds OF gallons into
