after fell unconscious, never to regain
knowledge of what was going on abou
him.
1t was a quarter to Z O'Clock thi.
morning when Mr.. Plumb uttered the
exclamation. A little more than 5 hour.
later the broad framed, powerful look
ing Kansas senator was stretched ou
dead in his modest apartments on 14tl
street. His physician, DIR. Wales; his
clerk, and his landlord, Mr.. Jennings
were with him at the end.
The senator had been known for years
as the most pushing, energetic, hard
working member of the senate. A yea
ago he began to fail. His brain became
affected and throbblng headaches be
came more and more frequent. Hi
physicians warned him that his contin
