Samuel Sullivan Cox was born at
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, Sept. 30, 1924, the son
of Ezekiel Taylor Cox. He was student

After being admitted to the bar he
entered politics and became the editor
of the Ohio Statesman, at Columbus.
Under Pierce he was secretary of lega-
ton To Peru. In 1857 he vas elected to

serving until 1865, when he removed
from Ohio to New York city, and in
1868 was elected to congress, serving
three terms. He was defeated for con-
gressman-at-large, but was elected to
the Forty-fourth congress, and since re-
elected, being a member of the next
Fifty first congress. During the Forty
ninth congress he was appointed to the
Turkish mission, but occupied the place
but short time, and on his return was
again sent to congress. In 1877 he was
candidate for speaker and, though not
elected, served as speaker pro tenn.
Soon after his graduation from college,
and before he had entered upon a settled

attracted wide attention and came near
leading him to a literary career. He
afterwards published other books, Eight
Years in Congress-" $685. "A Search
for Winter Sunbeams." QS70), why

life at Columbus he published descrip-
ton of a sunset scene in which his Ital-
ian visions and the American pictur-
esque were SO LUMINOSITY and fantastic

was indelibly stamped upon him.
A lover of humor, possessed of keen
sense of the ridiculous, he was diligent
in public life and leader in congress.
He was chairman of the census commit
tee of 1880, and upon the commerce and
other committees was influential and
useful.
Mr.. Cox greatly endeared himself to
the people of the new states, especially
Dakota, by his energetic work, by voice
and deed, in congress in advocacy of the
admission of the new territories. Not
long ago he made a trough the four new
states, and on the Fourth of July last
delivered a magnificent Grafton at HUI

not spoken at any length since II O'Clock

SUICIDE IN COURT.
James w. Smith, on Being Found Guilty
Of Assault, Slabs Himself.

There was sensational scene in Judge Nc
Connell's court room in Chicago at midnigh,
Saturday. James w. Smith had been on trial
few days past on the charge Of criminally as
saulting an eight-year-old girl, who had been
taken by Smith and his wife from an orphan
asylum at Akron, Ohio, for adoption. The
case was given to the jury yesterday afternoon,
and at l1:45 last night they returned verdict
finding Smith guilty and fixing his sentence a,
nine years in the penitentiary. Smith was
greatly affected, and, rising to his feet, ex.
claimed: 81 am innocent; swear before my
God. whom am about to meet, I'm innocentr'
As he finished he raised his hand and, with
small pocket knife, stabbed himself in the
left breast He fell backward on the floor,
while his wife, who had been sitting behind
him; screamed wildly: "Oh, Jim, why did you
do that?''
Doctors were hastily summoned and found
a wound IA inches deep about 8 inches above
the nipple. They don't think the would-be
suicide will die. In his pockets was found a
letter addressed to Judge Mcconnell, but the
judge was too much excited to read it last
night. Smith had always heretofore borne a
good reputation and was employed as q
draughtsman in a railroad office here.

THE GREENBACK PARTY.
Chairman Jones Issues a Circular on
Its Principles.

Chairman George o. Jones Of the national
greenback committee has to-day issued a
circular letter, in which he says: ''In reply to
many inquiries from prohibitionists, female
suffragists and representatives of other senti-
mental and semi-political organizations asking
admission to or what action will be taken by
the coming greenback convention on the
questions they represent, desire to say, with
due respect to all who honestly advocate such
doctrines, that it is the almost unanimous
opinion among national greenbackers that the
national greenback convention, to be held at
Cincinnati, September II, confine its declara-
ton of principles to the questions of restored
fraternity and spirit of true American nation
ality among the entire people; opposition to the
dangerous sectionalism of q solid north
and solid south; to payment of public debts
according to original contracts under which
they were issued; to the money, land, trans
portation, trusts, board of trade gambling in
and making prices for American farm products:
English control over the volume of our money;
English capital manufacturing or handling pro-
ducts of American labor and to such other
questions as affect the material interests and
welfare of the American people and free gov
eminent"
The letter then says that trade and COM
merce Is languishing for want of more money,
and declares that the application of greenback
principles would stimulate business and in
crease the prosperity of the laboring classes
and Of the merchant and manufacturer II
closes by requesting no persons to come to the
convention expecting to prevent other subjects
for consideration than those indicated.

A FAIR SULLIVAN,
Why She Wished to Learn the Deadly
Heart Blow.
From the Philadelphia Times.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The proprietor of a well-known gymnasium,
who, during the winter months, instructs in a
very private way class of young ladies, all of
whom would be greatly disturbed to think that
their real, not their ostensible, purpose in
learning calisthenics was known, was induced
to talk little of his pupils the other day and
gave some interesting details of his expert
ences. He is not altogether certain that wo-
men would make the best use of the science of
boxing if they were to be generally instructed
In 1t. O. One day not many weeks ago" said he,
| "a young lady, who is among the cleyerest
have ever trained, came to me and said:
Professor, can't see how the heart blow is
done?
..And she stood there, with her hands clasped
behind her back, and her little head peeking
help laughing right out. She saw that was
amused
"'Oh, certainly; I will show you the blow
over the heart; but, remember, it is not con-
sidered fair blow, and it is certainly not for a
lady to use.'
''She is little creature, weighing possibly
about ITO pounds. but she is lightning with her
fists. / explained that she must use the right
hand and deliver on the lower ribs on the left
side. She smiled and looked at me for a
moment. then she inquired:
"'Will it really kill a man, professor, to hit
him there?
at may not kill when those little fists of
yours are the aggressors,' / said; but it is a
| dangerous blow at the best, and should never
| be used. knife would not be more fatal to
some people than this blow
''She was quiet after receiving my caution
! Some time later l entered the practice room
| again to see how the class was progressing,
when, off in one corner, L observed a pair of
| girls boxing. One of them was my inquisitor,
and | was astounded to notice that she was
| pounding away at the other girl among the
| small ribs on the left side. went over and
taking her by the arm, swung her roughly to
| the middle of the floor, asking what she meant
by disobeying me. The tears came to her eyes,
and she sObbed out:
"1-was-only try-ing-to see-if / could
kno-no-ck her out
-" You little fiendp exclaimed What do
You mean? To kill the grip OF course at
once suspected and 1 afterwards learned as a
matter OF fact that the unfortunate victim
was my little lady's rival. So much for jeal-
ousy.
Il think" added the professor, "that if ever
women invade the prize ring, which heaven
forbid, We shall hear of more fatal encounters
than now. for the average woman is far less
eonsiderate than a man. They take a keen de-
light in intiicting punishment, and yet the sight
OF blood will unnerve the bravest of them
While men in gymnasiums don't mind mark
or bruise it is altogether different with a lady,
and they have to be handled very carefully, Just
like so much bric-a-brac, you know" he ex-

At Scranton, Pa, the ten-months-old boy OF
p. +. Moran, proprietor of the West Side hotel
died Saturday after suffering intense pain from
the effects of an insects sting inflicted last
Sunday. The child was taken by his parents
Sunday to a popular resort called Lily Lake,
and while sitting in the grass made an outcry
which startled his mother, who discovered that
he had been stung in the calf of the leg by some
insect. The injury soon became 30 painful that
the boy was seized with spasms, and by the
time the party arrived home the flesh of the
injured leg had become inhamed and hard,
The swelling then extended to other portions
OF the body and the spasms continued. One OF
the childs arms finally became paralyzed and
meningitis set in, resulting in death at O'Clock
Saturday morning. The species of insect which
inflicted the fatal sting is not known

ClNCINNATPS SUNDAY LAW.
One Hundred and Fifty Defiant Saloon
Keepers Arrested-Rioting.

Yesterday was regular field day in Cincin-
natl between the saloon keepers and the police.
Of the 2l2 saloonists who met at Turner hall
last week, all with the exception of about
forty tried to keep open. In consequence there
were about $50 arrests. At 18th and Vine
streets about o'clock in the afternoon the
police undertook to arrest man for disorderly
conduct. A crowd of 800, composed chiefly
of hoodlums that infest that neighborhood,
quickly gathered and the cries of "Mob the
police" was raised. The mob set upon the
police with clubs and fists, and one policeman
was badly beaten, his scalp being cut, but he
was not seriously injured
About dozen policemen kept the crowd
back with their clubs while an officer arrested
the man. On the corner Of Walnut and 18th
streets, at Warf ingers saloon, an unsuccessful
attempt to resist the police was made. This
saloon has always been considered rendeZ-
vous for anarchists and socialists, and is looked
on as dangerous place.
Three reporters who went over the Rhine
this evening to look up matters had quite an
adventure. They were suspected Of being
spies and the crowd demanded that thew give
an account OF themselves. Two of them gave
satisfactory reasons, but the third was obliged
TO turn and run down Vine street, followed by
the mob, and he only escaped serious injury by
being rescued by the police.
Throughout the city the work of the police
was admirable. The entire force of the city
was on duty, most of these, however, being
held In reserve at the various station houses, in
case of an outbreak.
The question whether the Sunday-closing law
Is to be obeyed or not is becoming one of uni
versal interest. People are taking one side or
the other, but to the credit of the city IL is said
that the great majority, even among the saloon
Keepers. is in favor OF the strict enforcement
OF the law, and the greatest indignation exists
on account Of the riotous proceeding of the
hoodlums.
More saloons were closed yesterday than on
any previous Sunday since the attempt was first
made to enforce the law. Kissefs and two
other large concert halls had the lights turned
on, but the front part was closed; there were
no concerts anywhere in the city.

"Forelady" is the latest invention of the
pseudo-genteel who must arrogate to them
selves titles OF courtesy. 1t is curious to OBJ

the terms gentleman" and '.lady." 1t began
in the south among the ex-slaves imme diately
after emancipation, and it has spread over the
whole country wherever the humble wage
worker Is DESTROYS of asserting his or her
equality" Would it not be well for people
who are gentlemen and ladies to relegate the
terms altogether to those who so rudely claim
them. real gentleman never calls himself a
gentleman and a true lady never announces
that she is lady. Tell the gentleman at the
other end of the counter that there is a man
here who wishes TO speak with him." said
