CHICAGO GIRLS STRANGE DEATH.
Body OF Carrie Smith Found in the

Lake-Muruer Suspected.
CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The circumstances
surrounding the death of Carrie Smith,
the stenographer, whose body was taken
out of the lake on Saturday. is mystery
There are no marks of violence upon the
body. Her friends refuse to credit the
theory that she committed suicide. but
the police are inclined to that belief. On
Thursday she said that, owing to the in
clement weather, she would not return for
luncheon, and luncheon was accordingly
put up for her. AT noon, however, she
returned, and surprise being expressed,
she said: Yes, I've come home, and am
not going to work any more" Her friends
thought this meant that she was not going
to work again that day. On Friday she
left her clearinghouse and never re-
turned. She belongs to respectable
family, members of which insist that she
was victim of foul play. The holding of
post-mortem is under advisement by au-
thorlties, as many believe it is the only
means of ascertaining the cause of death.

make us useful by laying upon our
shoulders all sorts of political cOnspira-
cies. If they are to be believed, we are
constantly engaged in plotting for our
own benefit and advancement, and are
quite willing. for the sake of reaching
our ends, not only to destroy the party
to which we belong, but to subvert
popular liberty and utterly up
root our free American institu-
tions. Others seem of the opinion that
we should be utilized as orators at
county fairs and other occasions of all
sorts and at all sorts of places.
Some think we should interfere
in every political contest and
should be constantly in readiness to ex-
press an opinion on every subject of a
political character that anybody has the
ingenuity to suggest. Others still re-
gard it as simply dreadful for US to do
: these things, and are greatly disturbed
every time an eX-president ventures to
express an opinion on any subject. Not
few appear to think we should simply
exist and be blind, deaf and dumb the
remainder of our days.
I'm the midst of all this, vast ma
jority of the plain American people are,
as usual, sound and sensible; are self
respecting enough to have dignity
enough to appreciate the fact that their
respect and confidence as nelghborS
is something which an ex-president may
we'll eovet, and which, like any 9th
man, he ought to earn. They will
measure the regard and consideration
due to him by his usefulness and
worth as private citizen. They will
not agree that the fact of his having
been president gives him any license
for bad behavior. nor that it burdens
him with all unfavorable presumption.
These are the sentiments which we, on
the side of the ex-presidents, will gladly
adopt, and these conditions we can well
afford to accept

IN PLEASANT MOOD.
The Ex-President Speaks Well
and Fittingly.

SANDWICH, Mass, July %. Mr..
Cleveland, replying to the toast, "Our
Neighbor, the Ex-President," praised
the beauties of Cape Cod and returned
thanks for the neighborly attentions of
it's inhabitants. He drew the parable
of the good Samaritan, although he
said he had not fallen among thieves,
and instead of one man having COM
passion for him, he had been sur
rounded by them ever since he came
to Cape Cod and Barnstable county.
lie declared his intention to be good
neighbor, and, Notwithstanding the
large majority of his neighbors were
in sad state of delusion politically, he
should not quarrel on this subject or
become political scOld. While he did
not wish to tempt such fate as befell
the man from Jerusalem, he could
hardly avoid dwelling on his fixed po-
litical convictions.
'.Some things" said he. "we can GER
tainly do safely and properly. We can
be tolerant OF one another. We can
constantly test our political beliefs by
the light of patriotism, good citizenship
and true Americanism, and we can be
brave enough and honest enough to fol-
low where they lead. We shall thus
elevate our political efforts and find in
centives to activity in determination
to aid in making our country as great as
it ought to be, and in securing to our
selves and our fellow c0untrymen the
happiness and prosperity due to all of
us, under a free government by the
people, If our political endeavor is
thus directed, we shall rid ourselves of
the blindness and bigotry which accept
unreasoning party association as sutfi
cient guide to political action, and
which count the spOils of partisan sue
cess the sole object of political struggle.
$50, though we may differ in party
affiliation, if we thoughtfully and sim
cerely believe and act we may still be
the best of neighborS, bound together
by an unselfish willingness to forego
special advantages which can only be
gained at the expense of our fellows,
and all engaged with hearty co-opera-
tion in the achievement of our country's
high destiny. l am inclined at this
point to suggest to you the lesson of the
parable with which began. 1t teaches
that neighbOr is not necessarily one
whose residence is near, and that kind
ness and consideration make men
neighbors. The Samaritan was the
neighbor of his robbed and wounded
fellow man, not because he lived near
him, but because in his need he had
compassion on him and bound up his
wounds and cared for him."

RUSSELL IN EULOGY.
He Indorses CleveIand's Position
on Finance.


SANDWICH, Mass, July 25.-Gov.
Russell in his speech said that 1.-The
sturdy citizens of Cape Coo, laying aside
for the time all distinctions of party,
meet to-day to extend hearty welcome
to our distinguished guests. L know
that they are glad to have the common
wealth, standing as she does, above all
differences of political opinion, join
with you in welcoming to her borders
the eX-president of the United States,
whom you gladly greet as neighbor
and friend"
The governor then spoke warmly In
eulogy OF Mr.. Cleveland's administra-
tion, and closed as follows: "MasSachu-
settS believes in sound currency. She
will not lend her aid to any movement,
whatever may be its source and how
ever honest may be its purpose, which
in its results would debase our cur
rency, unsettle credit, impair values
and give to labor in deprecated money
less than its iustdues. Her people sin
cerely believe that such a movement
mistakes the remedy for just griev-
ance, and will but add to the distress it
seeks to relieve"
"The country with a confidence in
yOu of which any man in private life
might well be proud, listened for the
expression of your opinion. 1t would
have been easy to have remained silent,
OF to have given an answer meant to
hide, rather than to declare your views.
That was the course pointed out by
self-interest and political ambition, but
had you followed it, you would have
been untrue to the people, and untrue
to yourself. The patriot and the man
of conviction dares to tell the people
the truth and to take the consequences.
We mingle with cur welcome to-day
our admiration for the courage that led
you fearlessly and emphatically to state
your convictions, and again to lead pub
lie opinion to right conception Of an
important public question"

REMoRsE OVERLOOK HIM.
Suicide of a Brooklyn Wife MUIR
derer.

BROOKLYN. N. Y, July ga tele-
gram from Corona, l.. l., to-day, to the
effect that Henry Nelson, of this city,
had committed suicide at that place by
shooting himself, led to an investigation
by the police of Brooklyn, which devel-
oped the fact that Nelson had on Thurs
day last murdered his wife at their
home in this city. In tracing the sui
eide the police found son-in-law Of
Nelson named Wise and Louisa OlesOn,
who stated that Nelson had aroused
their suspicion Thursday by telling
them that he (Nelson) bad had row
with the 'old woman" and had laid her
out.
Nothing was thought of it at the time,
as Nelson was in the habit Of boast
ing considerably. The police de-
cided to look into the matter, and
went to the Nelson house, where they
found the body Of Jennie Nelson, the
wife of the suicide. The body was in a
badly decomposed condition, and the
surroundings gave evidence Of desper-
ate struggle, though the other tenants
of the place all say that they noticed no
unusual noise in the Nelson apartments
that day. Nelson's real name is said to
be Ottenson. He left letter stating
that he had killed hIs wife in self-de-
fense, but this is not generally believed
by the police.

SANDWICH, Mass, July y25.-Speaking
of the presidency, Mr.. Cleveland said
the most impressive thing connected
with it, after the honor has been re-
linquished, was to see the citizen"whom
the people had selected from their ranks
to do their bidding for time and to be
their agent in the discharge of public
duty, lay aside the honor and the work
of the highest Office IN the world, and re-
turn again TO the people to resume at
their side the ordinary duties which per-
tain to every day citizenship. Here he
is, or should be, subject to the same
rules of behavior which apply to his fell
low countrymen, and should be ac-
corded the same fair and decent treat
ment unless he has in some way for
feited it.

people are by no means united in their
ideas concerning the place which our
ex-presidents ought to occupy or the
disposition which should be made of
them. A very amusing class Of citizens

DONATELLO's COUP.
The Great Chestnut Colt Wins the
HamIine Stakes.


The weather was threatening, and
there were many misgivings, but the
people were hardy and enthusiastic, and
they were out in the thousands. The
rack was in excellent trim and good time
was anticipated with eager expectancy.
The event Of the day was the fourth
race, a mile and three -eighthS, for
the rich Hamlime stakes, for three
year-Olds, of 500 each, with $4,000 adj
ded. 1t gave the winner s.. $50 fiat. a
prize worthy the ambition of and that
might well be coveted by any horse in
the cOutry. 1t brought out the crack
colts Of the West.
Donatelio was the favorite. That is
to say, the bookies placed him at even
money over the field, but it cannot be
said that the largest money was placed
on him. The heavy weights he had to
carry unseated the confidence of specu-
latOrS, and Dundee'S career in running
second to BroOkwoOd in the Hawthorne
Derby, and second also in the Twin City
Derby, inspired a faith that was empha-
sized by rolls of bank notes, although
he sold at small odds in the pools. Lodo-
vic sold at a shade larger odds, for a
time, but the bOokmakers shifted their
figures nervously as the betting took a
more definite course towards the young
Californian. Bill Letcher's proud POM
fact found lots of friends who placed
their trust in his prOwess. 1t was truly

beautiful and inspiriting sight. The

FARGO, n. D., July 25.-lnformatiqn
was filed with Judge Mcconnell by @.
A. Pollock that liquors were being sold
in the building owned and operated by
James Kennedy and Harry O'Neil. In
the absence of States Attorney Rose
the court appointed Charles A. Pollock
to act as prosecuting attorney, and two
deputy sheritfs were ordered to search
the premises, and if liquor was found to
seize it and hold the place until further
orders from the court. Deputy SheriffS
Barnes and McLaren proceeded to
execute the order, but found neither Of
the proprietors present. Customers were
turned out and the deputies proceeded
to invoice the stock, finding liquor Of
various kinds. James Kennedy came
to the door of the saloon and was adj
mitted. Deputy McLaren stepped OUT
side the back door to procure box in
which to place a sample OF the liquors,
when B. Schmidt, bartender, who Had
remained in the place, stepped up and
locked the door. Kennedy Immediately,
assaulted Deputy Barnes, knocking hifn
down and otherwise maltreating him.
Schmidt held Barnes down in
a corner of. the room while
Kennedy proceeded to demoiish
a bottle of liquor behind the bar, in
doing which he cut his left hand seri.
eusly on the broken bottles. Nearly all
the bottles were broken when McLaren
regained an entrance. Kennedy was
taken to physician to have his wound
dressed, while Schmidt was placed in

sideraly bruised, but not seriously in
Jured. E. E. Cole furnished a guarantee
