INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 29-It is
over at last, A. that is yet mortal of
Caroline Scott Harrison IS lying at rest
in the silent cemetery of Crown Hill,
and her place will know her no
more. The deathbed scenes; the long
journey of sorrow from the capital to
the cemetery; the services for the dead;
all are over and the president must fin
ish his worldly course alone as best he
may Nobly and without murmur
has he borne his trouble, as all could
see who witnessed the final ceremon-
les at Indianapolis
His appearance is indelibly impressed
on the memories of those who met him
when he stepped from his darkened
car into the broad light of the union
depot. Pale was he and haggard, and
with certain slight stoop in the Shout
ders. which men get who grieve; but
the step was firm, as became that of
an old soldier, and the expression of
his face was one of resignation and
OF hope.
To anyone who has witnessed the
pomp which surrounds the burial of
kings and princes this simple funeral
was peculiarly impressive. The wife
of the chief executive of g. 600, 000
people was being borne to her grave,
but there was less circumstance than
often surrounds the burial Of a simple
citizen Of the commonwealth.
ARRIVAL OF THE TRAIN.

veying the party arrived here at $3.50
O'Clock, promptly on schedule time, and
was greeted by thousands Of sympa-

Everything being in readiness tine
caskat was lifted and slowly and rev

of the larger boats can be saved the
actual money lost will probably not
exceed $500, 600. The list of wrecks is:
Schooner Nellie Hammond, wrecked at Mus

Lime Kilns; steamer City Of Naples, stranded
at False Prssque isle; schooner Zach Chandler,

This does not include the score of
boats around all the way from Port

losses the gale has been the most Sc

LOSS OF LIFE
DETPoIT. Mich, Oct. 31-The great
many wrecks along the shores of the
lakes and caused the loss of three lives
at least. Many people are reported
missing and their fate is not yet known.
At Manistee, Mich, the schooner Nell
lie Hammond was sunk by striking a
pier while entering the harbor The
captain, Louis Michalison, was washed
overheard and drowned, the remainder
of the crew escaping.
AT Sand Beach the waves are coming
over the top of the brea1water to the
height of SO feet An unknown sailor
was washed off the main pier in the
harbor Saturday morning and drowned.
The body has not been recovered yet.
Grave fears are entertained as to the
fate of the steam dredge Dominion and
its crew. 1t has been working near
bennington, Ont, for some weeks and
Saturday morning disappeared entire
ly. A search over this part of Lake
Erie failed to reveal its whereabouts IL
is thought it either sank entirely or
was blown across the lake. 1t had a
crew Of six men.
The schooner Zach Chandler went
ashore Friday miles east of life-sav-
ing station No. 10 and is total wreck.
All hands were saved but one man, a
Norwegian hailing from Cleveland.

ers prepared to take the price of
European laborer? All our industries
are prosperous; shall conditions so just,
be ruthlessly swept aside in order to
make room tor experimental free trade
legislation Shall we give welcome to
policy that would force the workers of
this land to accept the conditions of life
which exist in Europe? That revenue
reform would produce such results let
mo man doubt.
l We know through experience that
protection means high wages and social
comforts and Injuries for workingmen,
while free trade means low wages,
poverty and degradation. The McKin
ley act has been completely vindicated
in the increased National prosperity, as
testified by Commissioner Peck and
other democratic officials. In the state
of New York as reported by democratic
officials, the net increase of wages, net
increase of saving bank deposits,
amount invested in building and loan
associations, and increased value of
real and personal property for the year
1891 over 1890 amounted to 1922, 6S5,
$40. 1t is no wonder that the demo
Gratis try to run away from these figures.
The census report of New York city
ending May 81, 1890, shows the aver
age wages per hand for men, women
and children, increased from 1927 in
1880 to 1858 in 1870, or 81 SO per cent.
1t is strange that there are voters who
are so wrapped up in theory that they
cannot or will not see the facts as dem.
onstrated by experience.
1t is absolutely true that a tariff for
revenue only, aims to help foreign pro-
ducers. while the object of a protective
tariff is to help the people OF the United
States. A purely revenue duty is
always tax, it is added to the price OF
the article. 1t can never build up an
industry in this country. Do intelligent
voters want such "a state of affairs?
With a cent pound duty on tin plate
not pound was manufactured, with
20 cents, 40 factories have sprung up,
and if the duty is not removed by dem,
ocratIc Legislation, we will soon make

increase the price of the necessaries oil

ticket, which aims 10 help the foreign

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 1S.-Frank P.
Poston, brother of David Poston, the
victim OF Col. H. Clay King, addressed
letter recently to Grover Cleveland,
strongly deprecating the letter he wrote
Kings niece, and saying the action
would, in all probability, cost him votes
in Tennessee. In a reply of considerable
length, after expressing surprise at the
Interpretation given the letter he sent
Mrs. White, Cleveland says: "Have
you and others who are inclined to crit
icise my action, reflected upon the fact
that my letter was written in response
to the pitiable plea OF an apparently
broken hearted woman? Have you and
my critics overlooked the fact that alb
solutely declined to interfere with the
governor in behalf OF King? Has it en-
tirely escaped your attention that the
letter was written simply and solely by
the sympathy which every true man
ought to feel for a woman in distress
In response to your suggestion that my
act may result IN the loss of Democratic
votes, you will pardon me if say when
political expediency forces me to be dis
courteous to distressed women, l am
prepared to retire from politics."

HOW TO AVOID CHOLERA.
Simple Rules That Will Stand OF the
Plague.

Simple Rules That Will Stand OF the
Plague.
A local physician has handed us the
following rules laid down by the famous
doctor and scientist, Pasteur of Paris,
for the avoidance of cholera even in the
time of q great plague from the disease,
says the Pomona Progress.
Cholera Is contracted by taking the
germs into the syatem through the
lnuuth, aa ia food or dflak---or from The
hands, clothing, dishes, etc. Thorough
cooking destroys the germs.
If cholera should develop in this coun-
try, observe the following rules.
Don't eat raw, uncooked articles of
any kind, not even milk.
Don't eat or drink to excess. Use
plain, wholesome. digestible food, az in
digestion and diarrhea favor an attack
of cholera.
Don't drink unboiled water.
Doh't eat or drink articles unless they
have been thoroughly and recently
cooked or boiled, and the more recent
and hotter they are the safer.
Don't employ utensils in eating or
drinking, unlesa they have been recently
put in boiling water, the more recent
the safer. e
Don't eat or handle food or drink with
unwashed hands or receive it from the
unwashed hands of others.
Personal cleanliness of the living and
sleeping rooms and their contents and
thorough ventilation should be rigidly
enforced. Foul water closets, sinks, eel
lars, etc., should be avoided. 20
Don't be frightened, but be cautious,
and avoid excesses and unnecessary ex-
posures of every kind. a4sg
