Sudden Death OF n Journeyman Barber
The Faint Of Death.
Herbert Welcome, journeyman barber,
dropped dead at his home, near Broadway
and Terrace streets, at 1880 O'Clock yes ter
day morning. He leaves wife and three
small children, who are in destitute circum-
stances. 1t was at first thought that the
man met his death unnaturally, but an ex-
animation by Coroner Smart and Drs.
Newlin and Montgomery Russell revealed
the fact that Welcome was a victim of
heart disease.
Welcome had not been feeling we'll for
several days, and Wednesday evening
about 3 O'Clock, when he came home, he
complained of pains in the head and chest.
He got up early as usual yesterday morn
ing and, eating his breakfast, started to
work about 1880 O'Clock. Mrs. Welcome
was startled about fifteen minutes later.
when an urchin playing around the little
home ran into the house and stated that
"Mr. Welcome has fallen in a faint on the
ground" He was found dead a second
later by his wife few feet away from the
building.
Welcome came to Seattle from st. Paul
about year and a half ago, and although
he always found steady work he was not
OF saving nature. and consequently mas
not left his little family home. or even a
cent. Mr.. Frank Cholet, carpenter. and
brother of the widow, will stand the ex-
penses OF The funeral, and the BODY will be
buried this afternoon at 8 O'Clock in the
Masonic cemetery

HIS WIFE MISSING.
Max Kringle Would Also Like
to Find Fritz Schueber.
THEY DISAPPEARED TOGETHER.
The Old Story OF Pretty Wife, an
Unsuspecting Husband. False
Friend and an Elopement.

Three persons mysteriously disappeared
from the view of their friends in this city
Wednesday evening, and there are many
good reasons for the belief that they went
together. The missing ones are the wife
and 5-year-old child of Max KringIe, pro-
prietor of the Eur Quelle saloon, on Front
street. near Pike. and Fritz Schueber, at
one time bartender in the saloon.
The last seen of any of the three was
Wednesday evening. and the surprised and
anxious husband has made every effort to
discover their whereabouts, but up to this
time without success.
Events of the past month have con-
nected the names of Mrs. Kringle and
sohueber, the bartender, but that matters
had gone far enough to make an elope-
ment probable was not suspected.
Schueber. who had worked in Kringle's
saloon for about year. gave up his place
July %, on the pretext that his health re-
quired vacation. Mr.. Kringle owns
ranch near Chico, in ki.sap county, and
the proprietor proposed that his bartender
60 to the farm and recruit for time.
Schueber consented, and the fact that Mrs.
kringle was also at the farm did not pre-
vent his immediate departure for the coun-
try. He remained at the ranch about two
weeks. and then returned to the city and
announced his intention of making Jour-
ney to Cincinnati to visit relatives there.
On Monday last Mr.. Kringle heard Incl
dentally that Schueber had returned from
the East, and was at the Chico ranch. He
Immediately went out to his farm, and
Tuesday morning returned. in company
with Mrs. Kringle. his little daughter and
Schueber. Wednesday afternoon Mrs.
Kringle went out. saying she was going to
Lake Union to call on friends. and took her
child with her. At midnight she had not
returned, and Mr.. kringle, greatly alarmed,
began the search for her. 1t was discovered
later that Schueber was also missing
Mrs. Kringle had been on friendly terms
with Schueber for a long time. as the home
of the Kringle family is on the second floor
of the saloon building. where the two saw
each other daily. The lady is about 26, a
brunette, and possessed many attractions.
Schueber is a German, about 80, and has
gained some notoriety as the night bar
tender in whose place Wilke was working
when the shooting took place in the Eur
Quelle saloon on June 81.
Mr.. Kringle left the city last evening in
pursuit of the missing pair, his theory
being that they left on one of the night
boats.

PATHS.

The path that leads to Loaf of Bread
Winds through the Swamps of Toll
And the path that leads to Suit of Clothes
Goes through fiowerless soil.
Ana the paths that lead to the Loaf of Bread
And the Suit OF Clothes are hard to tread.
And the path that leads TO House Of Your Own
Climbs over the powdered hills.
And the path that leads 10 Bank Account
Is swept by the blast that kills;
But the men who start IN the paths to-day
In the Lazy Hills may go astray.
In the Lazy Hills are trees of shade
By the dreamy Brooks of Sleep /
And the rollicking River of Pleasure laughs
And ganbols down the steep;
But when the blasts of the winter come,
The brooks and the river are frozen dumb.
Then woe to those in the Lazy Hills
When the blasts of winter moan
Who strsyed from the path TO q Bank Account
And path to House of Their Own:
These paths are hard in the summer heat,
But in winter they lead TO a snug retreat.

CANDLE COAL DISCOVERY.
The Rich Gas Product Found Near Alki
Point.

The Rich Gas Product Found Near Alki
Point.
Mr.. Robert Johnston, of this city, called
at the PosT-INTELLIGENCER Office yesterday,
with specimen of candle coal which he
discovered on his ranch, on the mainland,
six miles directly southwest from Alki
point.
Mr.. Johnston said that since he took up
the farm, about five years ago, he has
known that for nearly quarter of mile
q 4-foot vein of Ignite ran along, cropping
out at intervals on the beach and finally
burying itself in the salt water. He first
discovered the pure candle or gas coal
about ten days ago. He was following up
the vein of Ignite and wondering whether
there was not vein of pure coal beneath
it, when his attention was called to some
magnificent looking Jumps of black dia-
monds that had been washed up on the
beach from some place under water. He
tested it and found he had a very fine
quality OF candle or gas coal.
Mr. Johnston says that experts have told
him in all probability vein of the candle
coal of unknown dimensions follows at an
uncertain depth under the vein of Ignite,
and with the Ignite buries itself in the
water. Mr.. Johnston believes this to be
the case, and that the candle coal found on
the beach is from vein that lies SUBJ
merged. He has not the money to work
the find. but is confident from the nature
OF the soil and other indications that there
is more than one vein, and that the hills
directly back contain wealth. He is anx-
ious for his find to be developed, although
he ayers it is not for sale.
Mr.. Johnston has been resident of Sc
attic good many years and lives on Yak
ina street, between Yesler avenue and
Jackson

Mr.. Andrews spoke briefly. accepting his
reelection to the presidency and pledging
his continued efforts for the Republican
party.
In accordance with motion by NJ. Il.
Claire committee, consisting of Messrs.
Claire, Mckenzie and Adams, was APP
pointed by the chair to draft resolutions on
the eight hour law. The committee re-
ported these resolutions, which were unani-
mously adopted:
WHEREAS, The Republican party has always
been the champion and protector OF American
labor,
Therefore, We, as members of the Harrison Le-
gion, in accordance with the time-honored prin-
ciples OF the Republican party, and believing
that capital and labor should meet and be kept
on equal footing for the necessary protection OF
both. do announce and declare that we deem
eight hours sufficient compensation Tor days
wages.
On motion OF T. J. G. Mitchell, the Legion
passed resolution urging That query Ell
fort be made to inforce the primary laws.
Mr.. Mitchell said he had seen Republican
primaries run by Democrats. and he be-
lieved this would not be done were the law
lived up 10.
C. +. Fishbank, at the request OF the
members. made a speech, declaring that
the Republicans were and always had been
party of principle. and one OF the princi-
pies for which the organization was striv-
ing now was free ballot and a fair count
insvery state in the Union.
The club then adjourned to meet next
Wednesday evening. in the Office OF An
drews & Jacobs, in the Boston block.

FIRST WARD REPUBLICANS.
The Club Actively Engaged in Work OF
Organization.

The Club Actively Engaged in Work OF
Organization.
The First Ward Republican Club held its
second regular meeting at the Gilbert q
Orth block last evening. The meeting was
well attended and a large number of new
signatures were subscribed to the constitu-
ton before the meeting was called to order.
The membership of the club now exceeds
100, and the organizers are determined to
make this the banner organization. The
headquarters of the club are now open
daily, with Secretary E. G. Dixon in
charge.
President J. NJ. Frink presided. In re-
Spouse to the call for the report of the ex-
ecutive committee, Chairman Clancy
stated that they had yet nothing to report.
They had held one meeting and organized
and arranged the preliminaries. They had
employed canvassers. who will today begin
work.
John Wiley was called upon to address
the meeting, and responded. He said that
the Democratic argument in the last city
campaign was that that election would be
an index to the next. Success then meant
success in the one to follow. He was will
ing to accept their argument. Two con-
greSSmen are TO De efecleQ this Iail, ana
the next legislature will elect United
States senator. A desperate effort will be
made by the Democrats to carry the state
Republicans must work and organize. The
silent work of determined organization
would do more than music and transpar-
encies. He urged every Republican to
work for the ratification of article % of the
proposed charter.
H. H. Thompson followed in response to
calls. He said the Plumed Knight of the
national party was James G. Blaine. The
Plumed Knight of the city of Seattle was
Harry White. One-eighth of the popula-
ton of the state lives in Seattle Seattle
and King county can carry the election.
Upon the Republicans of the First ward,
the most populous ward of Seattle, rests
the responsibility of Republican success in
the state election. He made an eloquent
plea for the laboring man, and for the
eight-hour system, and introduced reso-
luton in support of article % of the
charter.
Invitations were extended to the club to
be present at the Irish-American rally Sat-
urday evening. and at the meeting of the
Young Republican Club next Tuesday.
