Death of EmmOns Blaine.

Chicago, June l9.-Emmons
Blaine, son of ex-Secretary of State
Blaine, died at IL :l5 o'clock yester-
day morning. Blood poisoning, the
result of inhammatin of othe bowels,
was the cause. The fact of young
Mr.. Blaine's death was kept conceal
ed for some time after he had actual
ly passed away, the object being to
reach the father with some gentle in
timation Of the sad news. Efforts to
get telegraph communications with
the ex-secretary failed, however, and
about II :l5 o'clock the news of the
death leaked out. 1t was not until
a quarter of an hour prior to the fatal
moment that the least intimation that
Mr.. Blaine was in dangerous con-
dition became known and then only
to a few. At his office in the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad headquarters
in this city his associates were only
aware that he was i'll and had been so
for several days. Reporters were
sent to the Blaine residence at No.
1856 Rush street, but while they were
informed that the patients ailments
had assumed fatal form, no other
information could be gained for the
time being.
The death scene took place in the
great brownstone mansion of the
MacCormick family on Rush street.
The wife, Mrs. Emmons Blaine, and
the couples two-year-old son, Mac
Cormick Blaine, were the only per-
sons present besides Mrs. Cyrus
MacCormick, young Mrs. Blaine's
mother. Death came so swiftly that
there was no time to summons other
members of the family.
Emmons Blaine, at the time of his
death, was vice-president of the Bal
timore and Ohio road, and had quite
recently resided at Baltimore, coming
to Chicago to take charge of the
western interests of the company.

sWe are for protective tariff and
for reciprocity. Great applause],
We propose to take no backward step
upon either one of these great Re-
publican principles. [Applause]. We
stand for protective tariff because it
represents the American home, the
American fireside, the American fam
lily, the American girl, the American
boy, and the highest possibilities of
American citizenship" [Applause].

The Republican party has always
been the champion to the oppressed

hood, irrespective of faith, color or
nationality. 1t sympathizes with the
cause of home rule in Ireland, and
protests against the persecution of
the Jews in Russia.-Platform.

You want to paint your house
Won want to change the color of II.

You are not satisfied with the way the
paint you used lasted. You think it
ought TO have lasted year longer.
Come to us, we can show you the
colors made by the Chiffon Manfg.
Co. and they include every color and
shade that can be used to advantage.
As to the durability of the Chiffon
Paints, there is only one way-the
experience of those who have used
them. We know who they are and
will tell you. But we can say now
that you will find only one opinion
expressed-perfect satisfaction. A
pure linseed oil paint, full measure
given, placed on the market solely
upon its merits, has gained enough
friends among those who have used il
to need but very little recommendation
from the dealers who sell it.

Politicians can always see anything

the fight consequent thereon lost Mr..
Blaine the Presidency in 1884. Now

not added one iota to his mentel statue,

Londoners thought they had struck
something entirely original when they
got up a donkey-show. Donkey
shows have become so common in this
country that they no longer excite
comment. Wherever two or three
professional politicians are gathered
together there also is donkey show.
There is sense in the proposition to
have women drug clerks, although it
might interfere with the sale of whis-
key by the drink by drug stores. A
polite woman would be decided i'm
provement upon the over-dressed
batch of masculine conceit one meets
all too often behind the counters of
drug stores. 1t is light business,
and, barring the long hours, is pecu-
liarly adapted to the ways and capaci-
ties of women.
