A CANARD ABOUT MIR. BLAINE.
Emphatic Denials of the Story that He
Has Been ParalyZed.

Quite an excitement was created in town this
morning by the publication in New York
paper of a story to the effect that Mr.. Blaine
had had a stroke of paralysis and that he was
now convalescent. He went out driving Mon
day. but did not leave the hotel yesterday.
This morning the paralysis story was emphat-
ically denied, both at the State department and
a. the Normandie. Mr.. Blaine would receive
no cards or callers, but his private secretary,
Mr. Sherman, told all who came that there was
no truth in the published report. 'You can
make the denial positive" he said, ''there is
nothing whatever in the story. 1t is a canard. "

Mrs. Hannah Foster, wife of Jos.
Foster. of Swanton, died on the 9Th
OF this month. after a long and pain.
full illness. Mrs. Foster was very
estimable and Christian lady. She
was born In England in 1916. At
the age of II years became member
of the Wesleyan Methodist Church.
with which organization she main
tanned her membership until she
came to America in 1912, when she
united with the M. E. Church in this
country by letter. In 1843 she with
drew from that organization on &C.
count of its connection with slavery
and episcopacy and Joined the Wes-
leyan Methodists. which took its rise
in this country about that time, and
in which organization her husband
was a minister for number of years.
She remained a member of this
church until her death. She was
always an earnest and active advo.
cate of temperance and warmly in
sympathy with the cause of women
and their progressive and charitable
movements in this country for the
past thirtyyears. For upwards of 60
years she was christian. and when
she came down to the valley and
shadow of death she realized how
trueSTas the promise of her Master
that he would never leave her nor
forsake her, and although suffering
great deal she could say Gods
promises where very precious, and
she was resigned to His will. For
her to live was Christ, to die was gain.
She had reached her three score years
and ten, being in her 73rd year, and
was like shock of ripe grain, ready
to be gathered into the garner of God,
and she fully realized that for her, as
for all Gods Israel, there is no death,

How She Conquered.

George Paul, a young civil engi.
neer. while surveying a railway in
the Pennsylvania hills, met a plain,
lovable little country girl, and mar
ried her. After a few weeks he
brought her home to his family in
New York, and left her there while
he returned to camp.
Marian had laid many plans to win
the affections of her new kinsfolks.
She had practiced diligently at her
music; she was sure they would be
pleased to hear stories of her beauti-
tul sister and her brother she i'm

blue silk gown and winter bonnet.
But the Pauls, one and all. were
Indifferent to her music, her family
and her gowns. They gave GEORGES
wife" friendly welcome, and then
each went on his or her way, and
paid no more attention to her.
After the first shock of disappoint-
ment Marian summoned her courage.
"If have nothing to give them,
they have much to give me-" she
thought cheerfulIy.
She listened eagerly while Isabel
sang and her smiles and tears showed
how keenly she appreciated the

of eighteen hundred dollars for five
or six years would pay for a good
farm, and build ample and substan.

ration of that time, with ordinary
good management, the institution
would become self-sustaining. Eigh-

Oklahoma.

Captain Payne wiIls 60 down to
posteritv as the founder of the com.
ing State of Oklahoma.
He was a Western adventurer-a
bold and brainy man, full of schemes
and expedients, and gifted with some
of the magnetic qualities of leader
ship.
Some ten or a dozen years ago Cap
tain Payne took trip through the
beautiful Land" as the Indians call
il. SsKe saw a fertile territory with a
genial climate. where every prospect
pleased, and where there was moth.
ing vile but man.
Why not seize this attractive coun-
try, and turn it oyer to white domi-
nation? With this dazzling idea in
his mind. this enterprising filibuster
harangued the people of Kansas un-
til he had collected a crowd of BOOM
ers. A land company was organized,
and shares were sold at five dollars
each. A colony company was also
organized with two-dollar shares.
Finally. in 1880, Payne made a
break into Oklahoma with twenty.
five men. and started town. At
the end of three weeks federal troops
marched in. captured the village, and
sent Payne and his men to prison.
AT the expiration of two weeks the
boomers were discharged.
Finding that he was regarded as a
hero, the captain organized camp
of 200 men on the Kansas border, and
waited for another opportunity. For
four or FIVE years there were occa
sionalinvasions OF Oklahoma. Squads
of men would slip in. locate lands.
and be followed by the troops. and
elected, to begin their work over
again.
In 1884 Payne carried colony of
600 into the coveted land, and built a
town, with a newspaper, church and
school. The soldiers broke up the
settlement, and its founder went to
prison again. He was released. and
was getting ready for another expe'
dition. when death struck him down
in his prime.
But Payne's work went on. He
had started the Oklahoma craze, and
men continued to talk about it, and
collect in camps on the border. The
idea spread like prairie fire. until
spectators and statesmen gave them
selves up to it, and at last congress
yielded to the pressure, and enabled
Payne's followers to accomplish in a
lawful way what was unlawful dur.
ing the lifetime of their leader.
So the dead adventurer was the
first Oklaholnian. When his colony
crowns into a state it will honor his
memory, and perhaps vote him a
statue or a portrait in its capital.
Although he knew it not, death over
took him just when success was about
to crown his efforts.-AtlantG Co,asti-
