The Ez-Congressman Passes Away at
Theresa, y. Y.
THERESA, N. Y, Sept. lO.-Ex-Con-
gresham Charles B. Clark, of Wiscon-
sin, died in this city at O'Clock this
morning, at the home of his friend, l..
W. Tyler. Mr.. Clark came here ten
days ago for brief visit before starting
| on European trip. He was IN poor
health when he arrived, but his condi-
ton was not considered alarming.
Theresa was his birthplace and boyhood
home. He was the guest of Mr.. Tyler,
| one of his warmest friends. The latter
part of last week Mr.. Clark became
worse, and so serious became his symp-
toms on Monday that the family and
several friends at Neenah were sum
moned to his bedside. On Tuesday he
sank into lethargic state, which lasted
up to the hour Of his death. He took
no nourishment after Monday and did
not recognize the friends and members
of the family who surrounded
| him. His family and DR.. Barnett. his
physician, and Messrs. Shattuck and
| Stuart, his partners, We're with him 1T
remains tomorrow, arriving at Neenaii
at $40 Saturday, over the Chicago &
| Northwestern Railway.
NEENAH, Wis, Sept. 1O.-A telegram
was received at 8 \. NJ. to-day by
J. A. Kimberly, from Theresa, \.
| y, announcing the death OF
c. B. Clark. This dispatch was
sent by w. 4. Stuart, and states that the
remains will arrive Saturday on spe
cial train. The whole city is IN mourn
ing. Flags are at halfmsst on the
city hall and postosiiCe, and the
feeling Of sorrow is universal. Al
most any man in Neenah could be
spared betteE than Mr.. ClarI. He waJ
a public-spirited man, staunch
friend, kind to his employees. and
upon him. At the time of his death he
was Il years old. A native of Theresa,
| n. y, he came to Wisconsin in 1870.
He served with distinction through the
war. He was elected to the Fiftieth
and Fifty-tirst congresses. Mr.. Clark was
member of the &. \. Il. and the
| LOYAL Legion. He was one of the most
| extensive manufacturers of paper IN the
| country, and leaves an estate valued at
| s., 00O, 900.
There are few men who have
| been as successful in building up
great manufacturing enterprises as was
Mr.. Clark. With others he had built
| up the largest paper manufacturing
| plant in the West, with mills at Nee
nah, Appleton, Depere and Kimberly,
and worth millions. The business Of
the Kimberly x Clark Company
was extended to all parts OF
the country, from Pittsburg to
Omaha, from Minneapolis TO st.
Louis. Mr.. Clark took great pride
in the product of his mills.
| He was interested in a dozen or more
national banks, either as otlicer
or director, and possessed more
| bank stock than any other
man in Wisconsin. He made these III
vestments in lieu of life insurance as
proper provision for his children.
Personally Mr.. Clark was a modest
man, and of simple tastes. He lived
elegantly and surrounded his family
with every comfort, but be made no
| display, and made no effort to attain
public distinction. He never sought
office, but was drawn into politics 10y

AN Ex-PRESiDENT DEAD.
jules Grcvy, French Statesman, Carried
on by Congestion of the Lungs.

ON by Congestion OF the Lungs.
PARIS, Sept. o. VI. Francois Jules p.
Grevy, ex-president of the French Re
public, died to-day at Mont Sous Nau
dreZ. NJ. Grcyy had for four days been
suffering from a severe attack OF con-
gestion Of the lungs, which WAS the i'm
mediate cause OF his death.
At the time of the revolution i'll France,
in 1890, when Charles \. abdicated the
throne in favor of Count de ChambOrd.
Francois Paul Jules Greyy. then student
1t Paris. took part in the attack which led
the trembling old monarch to the transfer
Of his crown. jules Greyy was born Au-
gust 10. 1913. at Mont Sous Nandrez, in
the Department of .lura. He studied law
in Paris, and on the breaking out
OF the revolution in 1Sis. he was
eminent commissioner for the jur8,
and was subsequently returned by
that department to the constituent
assembly and became its VIcc-prcSIdent.
He voted against the expedition t. Rome,
and advocated granting but limited power
to the executive, toreseeing the possible
abuse thereof. At the time OF the coup
d'etat in 1851 he was arrested, and con
fined Tor a short time in MaZaS prison.
Upon his release he retired from political
life and confined his attention to his pro
feSSiOnal duties.
III l6bS. Nlltl it WAS clcClttt W HI Il tttA-
ual vacancy Ill the )ura. he returned to P0-
litical life. He was re elected in 1883. In
1871 he was elected president of the as
Scmbly. after the close Of the Franco-Gcr-
man war. which position he resigned in
1913. In 1915 he declined the nomination
for life senator. In 1876 he was reelected
by the .Iura, and again appointed preSl-
dent Of the chamber. When IN January,
1879, Marshal Mac Mahon resigned the
presidency of the republic, Grevy, though
not an extreme Republican, was elect
ed for seven years, by vote
of 553 out Of the total Of 715
cast. He enjoyed the confidence
and respect OF all parties for his admlnis-
trativc ability, his high culture and digni-
" of manner. Strictly honorable ana up
right i'll his dealings with men, his legal
knowledge and judicial turn Of mind adj
nirably fitted him for the presidency OF the
French republic. NJ. Greyy,s political
downfall was caused by the disgracefuI
conduct of Mr.. Wilson, his Son-in-iaw.
Wilson trafficked in decorations, selling
the Legion of Honor TO all who would pay
the required price. The cutlery against
Wilson caused u. Grevy to resign. and he
was succeeded by President Carnot.

among the most practical men in the
He&ld. On the contrary, VIC believe;
! measured by good business standards,
| that no calling furnishes more unprac
| tical men than farming.
| Practical means doing things in the
| pest manner and according to the best

| putting in practice of sound theories and
the use Of the most intelligent methods.
Is the practice of our Western farmers
/ n wasting the fertility of the soil or in
The breeding of their farm animals
really and squarcly practical?
Take the dairy farmers of any State in
the North. Can we believe that the
majority of them are governed by sound
| practical ideas concerning COWS when
| The average yield of milk per COW is only
| 5000 pounds year? If man is really
| practical will he not set TO work in dead
| earnest to milk and feed practical COW?
| IAN men be called pructiCuJ who have
kept a herd Of twenty or forty COWS for
| years and yet have never taken pains TO
know by a simple test which COWS were
| not paying their keep? Would Il prac-
| 5ical manufacturer allow himself to re-
main in very expensive ignorance for
| years concerning some machine, and
see if it is not running him in debt?
! Think of a dairy farmer who prctends to
10 business for profit: who snecrs at the
! agricultural papers because they are not
| practical, going along year after year
| with half the cows in his heard abse-
tutcly not paying for the food they eat
at market prices Men who talk 50
| much about other men being practical

standards of what is practical.
! The fIct is, what is practical with one
man may not be with another.
| Every man gives to himself or to
| others, according to the size Of his

money By them. Such methods would
not be practical fer men who don't un-
