 WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The capital is shocked by the announcement of the sudden death of Admiral David D. Porter. The old sailor had been in failing health for some time,' but since he recovered from the attack two months ago, which threa tened to carry him off, it has not been thought that he was in any imlne- diate danger.
 The old naval warrior had been suffer ing from fatty degeneration of the heart for a long time. Within the last week or so, however, he has been in fair condi- tion, and the end was not expected. Dr. Wales, the family physician at tending Admiral Porter, was hastily summoned to his bedside early in the morning, but the Admiral was dead be- fore he arrived.
 All of the members of the family were nt home at the time of the Admiral Is death.

THE Pennsylvania legislature is taking action in regard to the many appalling mining accidents that have occurred in the state within comparatively short time. Every friend of humanity will commend this proposed action, and it is much to be hoped that the investigation and the legislation will be so thorough and complete that in the future there will be fewer of the underground catas- trophes that have been so dreadfully des- tructive to miners lives. It is proposed to create commission, whose duty it shall be to revise the mining laws relat- ing to the bituminous mines of the state, and report it's conclusions within thirty five days.

He Needed a Wife.

A recent wedding in England was so interrupted that the friend of the we'd ded pair found special reason to con gratulate them when the ceremony was at last over. All went merrily until the bridegroom was called upon to ppo- duce the wedding-ring. In vain he felt in his trousers pocket for the indispen- sable trifle. Nothing could be found, except a hole through which the ring had evidently fallen into the high boot, which is adopted by young men of that district. What was he to do? "Talke your boot off, said the parson. The suspense and silence were painful. The organist, at the priests bidding, struck up a voluntary" The young man re- moved his boot, the ring was found, also a hole in his stocking, and the worthy minister remarked, evidently with more than the delay of the cere- mony in mind: "Young man, it is time you were married.

an executive order closing the executive departments on the day of the funeral, and directing that the flags on all public buildings be placed at halfmast on that occasion.
 The following is the Presidents mes sage to Congress:
 "The Admiral of the Navy, David Dixon Porter, died at his residence in the city of Washington this morning at S:15 o'clock, in the 18th year of his age. He entered the naval service as n midship- man February ,, 1929, and had been since continuously in service having been made admiral August 15, 1870.
 ''He was the son of Commodore David Porter, one of the greatest of our naval commanders. His service during the civil war was conspicuously brilliant and successful, and his death ends very high and honorable career. His country men will sincerely mourn his loss, while they cherish with grateful pride the memory of his deeds.
 ''To officers of the navy his life will continue to yield inspiration and encour- agement."
 Secretary Tracy issued a general order announcing Admiral Porter's death to the navy and closing the department on the day of the funeral. The remains will be inferred at Arlington.
 The funeral Will be held at p. m. on Tuesday with ths highest military hon. ors. The honorary pallbearers will be: Vice President Morton, Gen. Schofeld, Senators Henderson, McPherson and Hawley, Representative Boutelle, Rear Admirals Rogers, Amy, Howell, Crosby and Stevens, and Gov. Pattison of Penn sylvania.
 The death of Admiral Porter creates nc vacancy that can be filled by promotion, the rank of Admiral, like that of General of the Army, having been created by Con gress especially for Admiral Porter, and it expires with his death.

THE OBSTINATE CAMEL.
An Americans First Experience with the
 Lumbering Animal.

An Americans First Experience with the
 Lumbering Animal.
 If any other animal gives out it is still possible to make it travel a few miles by judicious use of patience and a club; but not so with camel. When he lies down he will get up only when he feels like doing so; you may drag at the string which is fastened to the stick through his nostrils till you tear it out, he will only groan and spit. It was my first experience with camels, and 1 vowed that it would be my last; for, taking them altogether, they are the most tiresome and troublesome animals I hhve ever seen, and are suited only to Asiatics the most patient and long-suf- fering of human beings.
 Besides their infirmities of temper, resulting, believe, from hereditary dyspepsia, as evidenced by such coated tongues, offensive breaths, and gurgling stomachs as have seen with no other ruminants. they are delicate in the ex- | treme. THey can work only in the win | ter months, for as soon as their wool | begins to fall, Sampson like, their strength at,andons them.
 They car travel only over a country where there are no stones, for the pads of their feet wear out and then they have to be patched, most troublesome operation. The camel is thrown and a piece of leather stitched on over the ] foot, the stitches being taken through the soft part of it; in this condition ii may travel till the skin has thicl1ened again; or, what is more likely, until il refuses to take a step.-W.

SPOKANE FALLS, Feb. 14.-T P. O'Con- nor, who is here on brief visit, was asked for some expression regarding the reported failure of negotiations between the Irish leaders. "I have learned of the breakdown of the negotiations and of the arrest of Mir. Dillon and OBrien with profound discouragement The break down is more lamentable if it has come, as Mir. O'Brien insists, from a mere con- test of words and phrases. don't hope to contribute anything toward repairing the situation, but will make my return earlier than I anticipated. I expect to be in England four weeks from now"

Two Letters Received from the MlSsinS
 Bank Cashier.
 AVER, Mass, Feb. l4.-Missing Cashier Spauldiug has been heard from. During the evening President Hartwell found the following letter under his door, with no postmark:
 "MR. HARTwELL-You are no doubt afraid lest the Savings Bank funds have been stolen. Such is not the case so far as 1 know. X x l had no idea or de- sire to rob either bank or individual for had l wanted tol could have taken many thousands of dollars from the Savings Bank as well as from individuals"
 This statement by Treasurer Spaulding as to the condition of the savings bank is verified by the report of the commission been found in the accounts of the insti- tuition as yet.
 The absconding cashier also sent a lengthy letter, the substance of which is that Spaulding writes%hat he has been speculating about four years; that le used first his own money entirely; then borrowed money from his friends, until finally his transactions becoming more and more extensive he began to use the funds of the bank, mostly in small sums
 He further says that he has no money with him at all; that what in gone is lost in speculation and that he realized nothing from it.
 This letter is postmarked Boston, il a. m.," and was received here by D. H. Flanders, with President Hartwell's letter inclosed.
 Bank Examiner Gatchell has almost concluded his work and he said that he would make his final report on Monday on which date the National Bank would probably resume. The deficit is about $24, ,OO0

The Vacant Cabinet Chair.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-Senator Pierce states that the President is seriously con- sidering the appointment of Thomas Lowry of Minneapolis as the successor to the late Secretary Windom. MT. Lowry was incidentally mentioned as candi- date by some of the Northwestern Sem ators several days ago, but at that time it was not thought the President re- garded him favorably. Now there is a strong pressure in his favor. Mir. Lowry is a fifteen millionaire.

The trouble with all imitators is that they are apt to overloook the excellencies and copy the defects. Sensible men adopt sensible things whether they are native or foreign. The great point is to avoid going to extremes. Our styles are in good taste simply because we throw aside the ab- surdities and avail ourselves of the best ideas wherever we find them. They in clude nothing that good, sound common sense will not immediately approve of
