foils are being carried away by the dozen

be largely responsible for the rise Of this
fad. Physicians generally approve Of
fencing for women highly, and think It

Striking switchmen Perform Desperate

CHICAGO, Ill, June 26.-Shortly after the
Lake Shore strikers bIOckaded- the tracks
last night by throwing an obstruction across
from the Rock Island tracks, the night eX-
press consisting Of eleven coaches, ran ont
on the west bound track, but, finding the
track blockaded5 ran back and was switched
on the east bound track at Eifty-fiEst street
just before the train reached the switch, a
man ran out and turned the switch as the
tram came along. The locomotive immedi-
ately Jumped the track, carrying the tender
and forward truck of the first coach of with
1t. The engineer Of the express, although
not suspec6ng that such feudish attempt
would be made upon his train, nevertheless
went at only half speed, and by dong so
probably prevented a most serious wreck
ana great loss of life. The engineer Of the
train and several others saw the man when
he turned tbs SWITCH and are certain that
they could identity him If they could see
him again. The sEitchmsn declare that
they do not know anything about IT, Still
farther on toward EugleWood other cars
were deralled IN a similar manner. At En-
gl6WOod twelve cars of the Nickel Plate
were dera1led by misplaced switch, but no
serious damage was done. A number Of
stones were thrown at tue WEecking crews
while they we're engaged IN replacing the
cars which had been thrown OF. Although
missiles fell thlckly at times, fortunately
they all went wide OF the mark and hurt no
one.

Death of the Hon. David Davis, at Bloom
ingtOu, III.
BLOOMINGTON, Ill, June 26.-David Davis
died at g O'Clock this morning. He sank in
to a cOmatOse state twelve hours before his

GEOGRAPHICAL.
David Davis was born in Cecil county

at Kenyon college, Ohio. He studied law
with Judge Bishop IN LenOZ5 Mass, and IN
the law school at New Haven, Conn. In 1886
he settled at Bloomington, ILL.,, where he has
since resided. He began active political life
IN 1913, being elected member of the lower
house OF the Illinois legislature. He was a
MEMBER also or the constitutional COuV6u-
ton which framed new constitution for
the state IN 1917, and in 1913 was elected
Judge OF the Eighth judicial circuit of Hi
n g2, ana reelected IN 1850 and again in
bl. Judge Davis was aWarm personal friend
OF Abraham Lincoln long before that dis
tlngu1shed man was named for the presi-
dency, and he was one of the most ardent
supporters of Mr.. IdncOln's election to that
Office. As lawyer Mr. Davis stood at the
head of the bar in Illinois before he became
Judge, and President Lincoln, RECOGNIZING
his great abilities, appointed him,
IN 1862, an associate Justice of the

one of the most conspicuous members of
that body. Physically, Judge Davis was the
largest man who ever occupied a seat in the
senate. 1t was necessary, on his admission,
to have a chair made large enough for him.
he was elected to the senate as an indie
pendent, and acted as one while a member.
Mr.. Malone of Virginia, was the other in
dependent IN the senate and the balance of
power rested with him and Judge Davis.
After the death of President Garfield, Judge
Davis was hOnOred by being chosen presi-
dent of the senate, a position which made
him virtually vice president of the United
States Mr.. Arthur having been sworn into
the presidency. AS a presiding officer he
was very popular. Soon after retiring from
the vice presidency in 1888 the Judge was
married, IN second nuplalz, to a ueice of
Judge Green, member of congress from an
eastern North Carolina district, a lady of
beauty and culture. Since that time he has

There is strong effort being
made by large number of profess
sed Prohibitionists in every county
in the State to obstruct the organ
ization of the Prohibition party.
They approach the "third party"
men under the false pretenss that
they are in sympathy with the
third party movement. They say
-"stand by the party, but don't put
in nomination third party tick
ct, as that would injure the cause
of Prohibition" They say swat un-
til we see what the Republican
party will do, and if it gives US
some assurance that it will give us
what we ask, we should then give
it our support. All this talk is a
mere pretext woven up to conceal
their real motives. The real mo-
tive of these schemers is to stop
the break from the Republican
ranks to the Prohibition party, and
use the "third party" as an aid So
oiety in favor of the Republican
party. How are you going to "stand
by the party" and not put in NOM
ination full party ticket. For US
to fail to nominate and vote for
our candidates, is simply to preach
and pray for Prohibition, and at
the same time labor and vote for a
party opposed to Prohibition.
These schemers are no less than
wolves who come into our flock in
sleeps clothing, for the purpose of
leading as many as possible over in
to the party den of saloon wolves,
to feed the hungry party.
The long prayers of the Phari-
sees were made to conceal their n.y.
pocrisy. So with these pretended
friends of Prohibition. Let US be-
ware of them.
The only way to advance our
cause, is to organize in every State,
county and district, nominate full
tickets, and stand by our candi-
dates.
The old parties are getting des-
perate, and resort to all manner of
devices to stop the stampede of
good men from their ranks.
Let US organize and stand by our
colors, and let the breaking up of
the old parties go on, while all true
lovers of home and country are
falling into line for the overthrow
of this giant crime and curse, and
soon the sun of Prohibition will
shine in all its splendor over a free,
redeemed and happy people.

one of the leaders OF the Republican party in
the convention which formed the constitu-
ton Of Ohio, and was much censured for
giving her a feeble Executive. After his re-
tirement from office. and after I began to be
known, he sought my acquaintance and ex-
planned to me very fully the causes which In
nuenced his political course. He told me that
General Arthur st. Clair, who was Governor
of the Northwestern Territory. treated the
members of his Council with great contempt.
Having the veto power, he allowed them
little share in legislation. and was, indeed. an
said, indicated the general spirit of his bear
ing toward them. The early ordinance gave
the Governor a tax of seventy-fve cents on
each marriage license. The Council thought
the people should be relieved from this very
Objectionable burden, and, unwilling to ask
the Governor to surrender the perqufsite
withouta an equivalent, they drew up a bill CIV
ing him an annual sum q little larger than the
amount received from marriage Licenses, and
a bill relieving the marriage license of the tax.
and offered them at the same time for his sig
nature. He took and read them signed the one
giving him the salary; put his veto o the
other, and, with a bow and a smile which the
Council thought contemptuous, handed back
when they formed tho Constitution of Ohio
they were smarting under the tyranny and
contempt of their late Governor; and that he
and a majority Of the convention acted under
the impulse. he said time and experience

by the Senate to inquire "Whether any. and
If any. what legislative measures may be
necessary for admitting the State OF Ohio
into the Union, and extending to that State
the avs OF the United States" The commit
tee soon reported ssThat the constitution and
State Government were republican. and con-
formed to the requirements of the ordinance
a District Court within the State to carry
into effect the laws OF the United statea." A
bill to carry out the suggestion passed the
Senate on February 7th, and the House ON
February 18th, and was approved by the
President on February 10. 1903, and ohio took
her place among the States OF the Union.
The new constitution under which the State
began its work was
REMARKABLY DEMocRATIc.
The right of suffrage was conferred on al
the male white inhabitants of the State who
were above twenty-one years Of age. no prop
erty qualification being demanded as had
been the case before. The members of the
House of Representative were to number
" tA4a
seventy-six, and were to be elected annually.
The Senate was to consist, in number. not
less than one-third nor more han one-hah
of the members In the lower House. and
were to be elected once in two years. The
Governor. elected for two years. by vote OF
the people, could not hold ONCE more than
six years out of eight. He could grant re-
prieves and pardons, convene the Legislature
and MI vacancies in State ofices when the
Legislature was not in session; but beyond
this he possessed little power.
The reason why the Governor was thus
shorn of power has been told by the elder
Ewing. who had it from the lips of one OF the
chief makers OF the constitution. The Sem
ator's explanation is worth quoting here. as
it not only lightens one point Of history, but
shows that men in those days were actu-
ated by near the same motives as control
