MRS. HARRlsoN's ILLNESS.
Her Right Lung Entirely Useless-sh,
Is Greatly EmaC!eted.

Her Right Lung Entirely Useless-She
Is Greatly Emac!eted.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Aside from the
usual changes characteristic in consumptive
cases, there has been no particular altera-
ton in the condition OF Mrs. Harrison since
she MAS brought TO Washington from Loon
Lake about two weeks ago. Although
critically ill and in a condition where a
new complication might speedily prove
fatal, her case is not absolutely
hopeless, and instances are known where
persons in similarly extremely dangerous
have so far recovered as to enjoy
comparatively fair health for years. Such
instances are rare, however. The Presi-
dents family and friends cling to the hope
that Mrs. Harrison's case may prove one of
the exceptions to the rule.
THE GREAT DANGER.
| EThe great danger TO be feared Is reuro-
might gather in twenty~four hours aud
prove fatal, especially il the patient could
not bear the operation of tapping. Mrs.
Harrlson's right lung is entirely destroyed,
so that she has no use OF 1t whatever The
left lung is not involved Although anx-
ious for prolonged life the patient
does not exhibit that ohearfulness
and hopsfulness that is usually so
apparent in the case of consumptives This
ID due to the extreme nervous exhaustion
from which she suffers. Ever since the
commencement OF her Illness she has been
affected with extreme nervous prostration,
and this has doubtless had very much to do
with her present condition This extreme
prostration has been one great cause which
has operated against her rallying.
HER NoURIsHMENT.
Her mind is perfectly clear and she takes a
certain amount OF nourishment each day
1t consists principally OF raw eggs in little
wine and pepSin. IL is not from desire to
eat, however, that she takes nourish-
ment, but merely from sense of
duty and as medicine. Her cough
ing spells are not violent and
do not worry the invalid very much except
on rare occasions Sleep during the night
comes TO her in periods Of from one to two
hours at a time, and this without the aid of
opiates. She has very fair nights, being
restless only at times. Two or three hours OF
sleep are obtained in the day time but it is
not of refreshing character.
GREATLY EMACIATED.
Probably the most noticeable result Of
Mrs. HaTrison's illness is her great emRclR-
tion. Her appearance last year was that OF
a strong, healthy and vigorous person, who
did not know what it was to De i'll and the
change that has come over her is said to be
most pitiable. Before she was Ill, Mrs.
Harrison weighed l67 pounds, and it is said
that she has lost during her prostration be.
tween 45 aud 80 pounds.

A SWAMP ANGEL SLAIN.
TWO BULLETS FIRED INTO HIM
WHILE RESISTING ARREST.

He Had Taken Possession of a Club
House and Def1ed the Members to
Fjscs Him - Ohacers Disguised as
Sportsmen Lead Him Into a Trap-A
K mant.c History.
MEMPHIS, TENN, Oct, 6-Since Mart
Mitchell the original swamp angeln of the
Arkansas swamps bit the dust, Jack Thorn >,
alias Jack Smith. has been worthily wear
ing his mantel. He made his habitations IN
tHe river bottoms, knew every path
through the underbrush and could point
out resorts of game Of oil kinds. Crittenden
county Arkansas, opposite Memphis. on the
river, was the scene of his wanderings.
He was known as Jack Smith.
A couple of years ago he
was employed by the Raggie fishing
and Hunting Club. Memphis organization
that owns lakes and game resorts in Arkan-
sas and no was so we'll acquainted with the
needs of sportsmen that they put him in
charge Of their club house at Raggie lake,
where he soon made himself valuable and
one OF the most enthusiastic members Of the
club, who dubbed him "The swamp angel
Of Raggie's lake" name that was soon
adopted by all the other members of the
club.
PROVES A BAD MAN.
Smith at first seemed a quiet, unostenta-
tious and industrious man, but when he be-
came more familiar he grew to be rather
offensive. He got overbearing and about
six weeks ago ne was discharged from his
position as the club housekesper. Then he
became bad man. Armed with reyolvers,
shotguus and knives in his boots he fortified
himself in the clubs house and defed the
members of the Raggie club to dispossess
him. 1t was great bluff. but it went. Only
a few members Of the club have ventured
to the club house during the past six weeks.
But some of the members OF the club began
a sSege on TIE quiet against the Swamp
ANGEL They learned that he was an
escaped convict from the Arkansas state
peniten tiory at Little Rock The state aus
thoritles were notified and Warden Dyer
of the state penitentlary set on fooC meas
ures TO capture the angel.
THE ANGEL SHOT DEAD.
Two officers in tee Ruiss OF sportsmen
went 70 the club house and spent several
days with Smith alias Thorn. They got on
easy terms with him aud yesterday induced
him Co accompany them TO Earl, where
Gney were IneC Oy Depuuy SueflH FRANK
Williams, who undertook to arrest the ex-
convict. The angel resisted and made a
show of fight, but before he could get his
irons in position couple OF bullets from
the pistols OF the officers pierced his brain
aud he fell while in the act of drawing his
own pistols.
Thorn has had a checSered career. OF
god family, he wsSt wrong and soon
landed in the penitentiery. His frequent
escapes was miraculous, and once in a cane
brake he defied arrest and was more dan
gerous than the bears that made their home
with him.

WEAVER's LIFE IN PERIL.
Grave Danger Of Riot II He Speaks
at Pulaski.

Grave Danger Of Riot If he Speaks
at Pulaski.
MEMPHIS, TENN, Oct. GA special to the
AppedI-Araldncbe from Nashville, Tenn,
says: "News from Pulaski last night is of
an alarming nature. Gen. Weaver says
he will certainly GO TO Pulaski and speak
there Saturday and that be has no inten-
tion of cancellng his appointment. Letters
from the most conservative people in
Pulaski and Giles county urge strongly
that Gen. Weaver lie dissuaded from COM
ing, as there are grave fears of serious
battle II he appears there. Every utter
ance will be criticised and one imprudent
word may lead to his death. Gen. Viewers
course during the war made him extremely
obnoxious 30 the people, and his bitter lau-
guGge about his accusers has created in
teEss excitement. He asserts that he will
hurl defiance in the face of his enemies.
A BLOODY RIOT FEARED.
''rhe threat has been openly made that he
will be killed if he uses insulting language,
but third party men from ali over the coun-
try, including many confederate soldiers
are artning and preparing TO go 20 Pulaski,
swearing that they will protect him in
speaking and defend him against assault.
Both sides are determined and neither will
yield 10 the other il it comes to blows. A
bloody fight Will certainly follow the firing
of single gun. There are those who be-
lieye thai Gen. Weaver may use such
temperate language as to forestall
any trouble. Even the tension and
strong feeling would in all likelihood
lead to trouble. Every effort Is being made
by the democratic state committee ID secure
a quiet hearing for Gen. Weaver and pre-
vent an outbreak, but advices last night
say that no argument viii avail; that if
Gen. Weaver utters one imprdden5 word he
will be killed, aud that all the conservative
people in Pulaski cannot prevent it. They
urge that the only safety lies in successfully
urging Gen. Weaver not TO fill his appoint
ment The democratic state committee are
much disturbed over the situation

GENOA, Oct 6.-Tbe BisaGno, which
passes the eastern wall of the city, over
flowed its banks to-day owing to the recent
