The Ladies, Home Journal

So clever society woman as Mrs.
Burton Harrison, and so excellent an
authority, does well when she employs
her pen to define social laws and point
out mistakes for girls to avoid, and
thousands of girls can and should read
the first of her series of articles on "The
Well Bred Girl in Society" in the No
vember Ladies' Home journal. Mrs.
Harrison, better than almost any social
leader, can take them through the al
phabet of social etiquette, and she does
this most admirably in her opening
paper. Not less authoritative and
charming is the first glimpse, which
we get in this number, of the home life
of Dickens in the opening article of the
series of papers entitled my Father As
1 Recalled Him, "by the great novelist 8
daughter, Mamie. The fashionable
chrysanthemum in its relation to lunch
cons, receptions, dinners and weddings,
is treated in an excellent article by H.

piquancy of personal element to an in

Who Write To Me-" The famous opera
singers, Marie Roze and Clara Poole,
have each an article ON the voice, in

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Straws Showing the General Drift Of
the Current.

OMAHA Neb., Oct. 27.-The chairmen
of the Republican, Democratic and In
dependentState Committees today gave
their estimates of the political situa-
ton in Nebraska as result of careful
canvassing. The Republicans claim
the State and electoral ticket by $4,000,
but think the Congressional fight is
doubtful. The Independents claim
fighting chance in the State, but admit
there is no chance in other respects.
The Democrats hope for the best, but
claim nothing, as they say the vote
may go either way.
NEWPORT, R. l., Oct. 27.-The elec-
ton Yesterday resulted in the choice Of
Horton, Republican. for Mayor, over
Honey, Democrat, present incumbent.
The Republicans also elected three out
of five Aldermen and ten out of fifteen
Councilmen.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., Oct 27.-Repub-
licans from all over the State had
conference here today, and reports
were made from district and town COM
committees. The situation in Rhode
Island is reported most fattering.
Ex Senator Kellogg, of Louisiana,
says: 81 believe we shall elect two
members of Congress in Louisiana, and
we have fair fighting chance in West
Virginia and North Carolina.
w. G. Franklin, Republican nominee
for Congress, was speaking in Black
stone, Va, to crowd composed of
whites and blacks. Among the crowd
was representative of the New Era, a
Democratic paper published in the viii
lage, who says he thought "a man
might be a Republican up North, but
down South every white Republican
ought to be burned to stake"
In Wisconsin the courageous stand
taken by the Germania, the leading
German weekly of the West, in favor
of both Republican National and State
tickets has impaired vigor to the Ger
man campaign everywhere. George
Joeppen, the editor of the Germania,
says that, in his opinion, there is no
doubt whatever about Republican
victory in Wisconsin on National and
State tickets.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Oct. 2S.-A sem
sation was caused in political camps
tonight by the announcement that the
Christopher Columbus Democratic
Club, composed of 100 Italian voters,
had deserted the party of free trade for
Republication. 1t is said that every
member will vote for Harrison and
Reid and protection.

MRS. HARRISON DEAD.
The End Came as Sweetly as to the
Autumn Flowers.
No Royal Crown Wore the Queen Of
American WOmanhOOd.

Mrs. Harrison is dead. On Tuesday
morning, October 25, at 1:4Q, the end
came. For the second time in the his
tory of the White House, Presidents
wife has died within its walls. Mrs.
Harrison met death with the patience
and resignation of devout Christian,
anu her last days were comparatively
free from pain.
For twenty four hours the President
and family had been almost constantly
at her bedside awaiting the end. Late
and early-so frequently that he slept
not at all-the President was in and out
of the sick chamber. There was no
struggle, no exhibition of pain, but a
simple passive resistance that was baff-
ling in its quiet intensity. In few
minutes DR.. Gardner took up the hand
and felt the wrist. The blood still
coursed through the contracting arteri-
es, but oh how slowly. He shook his
head and said that brief fifteen min
utes must surely finish the struggle.
The agitation of the family could no
longer be controlled, and realizing his
utter helplessness to longer cope with
his formidable foe, and from considera-
tion for the sacredness of such grief as
this, the devoted physician and friend
bowed his head and passed out. Out
side of the threshold he took his stand
and waited. 1t was not a long time.
The minutes flew like seconds, and sud-
denly there was an expression of heart
stricken woe, and the end had come.
The President was beside his dying
wife, as he had been for nine hours con-
tinuously, and his was the last of the
loved features her eyes dwelt upon.
Her breath was labored and very slow.
AS the hands Of the clock crept stead
lily on, it grew fainter yet, and as the
time piece marked the hour of lao
O'Clock, there was an interruption of
the feeble breath, resumption and
then stop, this time to be eternal, and
the life of Caroline Scott Harrison had
passed away.

No woman in the long line of those
who have presided in the White House
ever left behind her memory of more
kindly deeds, more quietly thoughtful
acts, more unvarying politeness alike
to those of high and low degree than
Mrs. Harrison. The secret of her pop
ularity has been the mate kindliness,
the intense womanliness which were
evident in all she did. Never 80 happy
as when she was accomplishing some
thing for the comfort or pleasure of
others, Mrs. Harrison was in her ele-
ment when surrounded by her family,
for the motherliness of her nature was
a striking characteristic. With nat
ural fondness for the duties of house
keeping, she never wholly relinquished
the supervisory cares of the Executive
Mansion until her illness took such
hold upon her as to confine her to her
room early in April. Contrary to the
general rule, however, Mrs. Harrison
never obtruded these duties upon the
social world, and the widespread noto-
riety given through the papers of the
annual spring cleaning and various in
terror changes which have taken place
in the White House since she first went
there to preside were source of great
annoyance.
Naturally progressive woman she
kept well abreast of the topics of the
day, and in conversation showed
thorough knowledge of the best writers
of modern times, and, as is we'll known,
was devoted art student. Her talent
for painting was source of keenest
pleasure, to which she turned from
time to time when her arduous social
duties would permit of the recreation.
With her needle she was also accom-
plished to an unusual degree. Keenly
ambitious for her husband from the
earliest days of their married life Mrs.
Harrison lived to see her ambitions
gratified when he was nominated for the
exalted office which placed him at the
head of the greatest nation on earth.
During the months which intervened
between his nomination and election
Mrs. Harrison was indefatigable in the
thousand and one duties which natu-
rally devolved upon her at such time,
as we'll as during the exciting summer
which preceded that period, when the
contest between the rival political par
ties was at its height. So great was the
strain that, though twas bravely borne
without sign of shirking, Mrs. Harri-
sons health did give way for time
shortly after the inaugural ceremonies.
Rallying from this attack of nervous
exhaustion with her old time vitality
she at once ook her place at the head
of the Executive Mansion, and allowed
nothing to interfere with the discharge
of her manifold duties. Rarely was a
friend or visitor denied the privilege of
seeing the Presidents wife, who ac-
ceded to their request for an interview,
even if she had only the briefest space
of time in which to see them.
A marked feature of Mrs. Harrison s
occupancy of the White House, which
will be Of incalculable benefit to fu-
ture generations in preserving to them
the social traditions of the Executive
Mansion for restoring such bits of his
toric furniture and china as she found
in the lumber room of the attic, and
the faculty of unearthing whatever of

Before Watts, the discoverer Of the

disturbed by unwelcome dreams, in
one of which he was out with .the
boys and as they were stumbling

wonder what shape molten lead
would assume in falling through the
air and finally, to set his mind at rest,

bottom of the shallow pool several

had ever seen. Watts fortune was
made, for from this exploit emanated

since has been the only means en-
ployed in the manufacture OF the little
missiles so important in war sport.
