Died..

Mrs. Rose NJ. Vincent, wife Of Floyd
r. Vincent, died of consumption at her
home Sunday evening at about $50
o'clock. For the past year she has been
slowly declining and no medical skill
could arrest the fatal disease. The de-
ceased was a lady Of most estimable
character, universally respected and
loved. Her christian character was
above reproach and her spiritual consola-
tions in her lingering sickness were such
as to destroy the fear of death and lead
her to look forward calmly and hopefully
to the time of her departure which she
we'll knew was near. She was an honor
ed member of the Methodist Episcopal
church and her removal will be keenly
felt loss to the society, as we'll rs to the
family. Funeral services will be held at
the residence tomorrow (Tuesday) after
noon at two o'clock, and the burial will
be in our city cemetery.

from Marion county, Kan., over three
hundred miles, since the first of the

losing both farm and stock. Their neigh
bors were in almost as hard circumstan-

cluded to start to his old home at
Sigourney, Iowa, nobody could assist
him. He finally determined to walk,and
his conclusion was partly carried out.
When they arrived here they we're in a
horrible condition. The wife's shoes
were worn out, and her feet we're one
mass of sores. The two younger children,
boys aged four and six had walked near

that there are hundreds in the new coun-
ties of Kansas whose condition is in no
way better than that of his family.

LISBON, N. D. May 21.-About 6 o'clock
last night, Mrs. Stevens, wife of Hon. r.
N. Stevens, was fatally shot. In the after
noon Mr.. and Mrs. Stevens went for a
drive in the country and took shot gun
By mistake they took the wrong sized
shot, and when they returned they
laughingly told some friends, as they
drove through town, of their error. Ar
irving at home they got the proper shells
and retired to the river, few rods in the
rear of the house, where there is generally
a few ducks on the water. A moment
or two after, Mr.. Stevens was heard Wild
ly calling for help. Some men rushed
up and found Mrs. Stevens lying on the
bank of the river dead, having been shot
through the head, the charge entering at
the base of the brain, just behind the
right ear. Mr.. Stevens is crazed with
grief and no particulars can be obtained.
The Inquest.
The coroner empanneled a jury and IS
holding an inquest. At two o'clock the
jury Is still in session. The evidence
adduced shows the shooting to have been
purely accidental.
At $3.50 the coroners jury had not yet
adjourned this afternoon. Mr.. Stevens
will accompany the body of his wife 10
Petersburg, Illinois, where the funeral
will take place.

Defining an Original Package.

Blum " Blum, attorneys at Chicago
and nephews of Col. Blum of this city,
were the attorneys for Leisy & Co. IN
the recent "original package" case before
the supreme court and prepared the
brief that won for them that already cele-
brated decision. The colonel is proud of
his talented nephews and justly So They
have been phenomenally successful in
presenting important cases in the United
States supreme court and, although they
are both under thirty, have earned
national reputation. Immediately after
the PRONUNCIATION of the "orieinal pack
age declsion," Col. Blum wrote his neph-
ews, inquirlng their understanding of the
term and the general bearings of the de-
cislon. In reply the following interest
ing letter was received:
In reply to your recent letter, would
say that we today sent you brief and
copy of opinion In the recently decided
case of Leisy vs.. Hardin. We cannot
because we have only one copy left. We
that it is not strange that the supply
has long since been exhausted. We are
of the opinion that package imported
from another state can only be regarded
as an original package as long as it re-
mains unbroken-i. e., in the unbroken
condition in which it crossed the boun-
Diary line of the state into which it was
imported, So, to use your illustration:
If case contains twenty-four bottles the
case and not the separate bottles consti-
tutes the "original package. "At all events
it is safe for a person to sell original
packages in prohibition states under this
construction, and it would be hazardous
to sell them under the other construction.
It may be that the United States supreme
court will adopt the view that each pack
age, being complete in ITSELF is an ori gi-
nal package; although for purposes of
transportation and convenience it is
packed with other packages in a larger
package. It is not unreasonable to adopt
the latter construction, because suppose
you should import freight Car IN which
you also had shipped to yourself large
mass of various merchandise, could it be
claimed that as you bought the car as
we'll as the merchandise it contained.that
you could only sell the merchandise
while it remained in the car? Or suppose
you bring into the state case con-
tanning jug of liquor and ten boxes of
cigars, must you sell the whole case so as
not to violate the law; or can you not
break the case and sell the unbroken jug
Of liquor to one and the cigars to an
other? We have always intended testing
this question for the purpose OF obtain
ing a definition of the term ''original
package" from the United States su-
preule court, and We will doubtless
present such Il case for decision. Still
another case: Suppose you import two
horses which are fastened together by
means of strap. is the original package
broken when yoa cut the strap?
