GENERAL CAMERON DEAD.
HE EXPIRED AT EIGHT O'CLOCK LAST
EVENING.

HARRISBURG, Pa, June 26-Gen-
eral Cameron died at 8 O'Clock this
evening. He began sinking about noon,
and rapidly grew weaker until the end.
He was told late yesterday afternoon
that his son, Senator Cameron. was on
his wav home, and this news seemed
to give him pleasure. Attorney Cen
eral Macveagh and wife, Simon b.
Cameron and wife, Mrs. Richard
Haldeman and others were at Ills bed
side. DR.. Dunott, the consulting ply
siciau, arrived from Donegal tonight,
and stated before he heard the news of
the death that his distinguished pa
tlent could not possibly live until
mornlng. .'
The funeral will take place in Har-
risburg, and will likely be postponed
until Senator Cameron's arrival.
LANCASTER, Pa, June 26.-General
Cameron's condition during the DAY
was rather encouraging. and death
came suddenly from a weak spell. Up
to the last attack he was conscious,
and had no trouble to swallow the
food given BIN, and which he appeared
to assimilate.
Just previous to the sinking spell
which terminated fatally. the General
appeared to recognize several friends
who called. His general condition,
while very weak. was such that the
doctors had hopes that his life might
be prolonged until the return of Sen
ator Don Cameron, who cabled that he
would sail from Liverpool to-day.

DEATH OF MRS. HAYES.
THE MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY AT
THE BEDSIDE.

THE BEDSIDE.
FREMONT, Ohio, June 25.-Mrs.
Hayes died this morning at $50 o'clock
after passing the night quietly. At 8
O'Clock last night she became much
worse and gradually sank until the
hour of her death. At the bedside were
the members of the family, together
with Mrs. Mitchell, of Columbus, a
cousin of General Hayes; Mrs. Hunt
ington. a cousin of Mrs. Hayes; Lucy
Keller, Mrs. A. H. Miller and the
physicians.
All night long the sorrowing family
watched around the bedside. Mrs.
Hayes lay motionless, and but for the
faint breathing and the weak fiutter-
ing of the pulse there was no signs of
life. The anxious watchers. waiting
only for the inevitable end, were bowed
with grief, and scarcely a word was
spoken the long night through. The
physicians kept in the background and
the family were alone with their loved
one. In vain they hoped for a slight
rally that might come before death, so
that she could recognize and speak to
them. As morning dawDed the hold
of life grew weaker and weaker,
and finally the spirit took flight. In
a voice choked with grief the
physician announced that the end had
come. and the family's long vigil closed
in prostratiOn and grief. General
Hays and his four grown sons, Burch-
ard, Webb, Rud and Scott. were deeply
affected, while Fanny Is nearly pros
trated with grief and her long, sleepless
watch at her mothers bedside. The
entire city is in mourning and flags are
at half mast. .I .,
kilograms of coincidence have been
received from many friends, among
them President and Mrs. Harrison.
The funeral will take place on Friday
afternoon.

HIS HOME.

Our Lords boyhood was passed in a
neighborhood twelve hundred feet
above the level of the sea, and surround
ed by mountains five or six hundred
feet higher. Before it could shine in
the village where this boy slept, the sun
had to climb far enough up to look over
hills that held their heads far aloft.
From yonder height His eye at one
sweep took in the mighty scoop of the
valleys, and with another sweep took in
the Mediterranean Sea; and you hear
the grandeur of the cliffs and the surge
of the great waters in His matchless SER
m~onology. Ohe day / see that divine
boy, the wind iurrying His hair over
His s~un-browned forehead, standing on
a hill. top looking off upon Lake Tiber-
las, on which at one time, according to
profane history, arefour thousand ships.
Authors have taken pains to say that
Christ was not affected by these sur
roundings, and that He from within
lived outward and Independent of cir
cumstances. So far from that being
true, He was the most sensitive being
that ever walked the earth, and if a pale
invalid's weak finger could not touch
His robe without strength going out
from Him, these mountains and seas
could not have touched His eye without
irradiating His entire nature with their
magnificence, 1 warrant that he had
mounted and explored all the fifteen
hills around Nazareth, among them
Hermon, with its crystal coronet of per-
petual snow, and Carmeland Tabor and
Gilboa, and they all had their sublime
echo in after time from

THE oLIvETIc PULPIT.

Through studying the sky between
the hills, Christ had noticed the weather
signs, and that a crimson sky at night
meant dry weather next day, and that a
crimson sky in the morning meant wet
weather before night. And how beau
tifully He made use Of it in after years
as He drove down upon the pestiferous
Pharisee and Sadducee, by crying out:
