Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1892-09-08

In 1858 he began in Harpers Monthly the
department called "The Editors Easy
Chair" He continued to edit and conduct
this department until the time of his death.
In 1857 Mr.. Curtis became the leading
editorial writer for Harper's Weekly, task
that he continued until near the end of his
fatal Illness
For many years Mr.. Curtis was a COM
manding figure in New York and national
Republican politics. He was delegate to
many national conventions, and in 1864 he
was defeated for congress in his district
He declined consular offices offered to him
by President Lincoln. In 1869 he declined
the Republican nomination for secretary of
state in this state. In 1871 Mr. Curtis was
appointed by President Grant one of the
commissioners to draw up rules for the
regulation Of the civil service. In 1873 he
resigned because of an unfortunate differ
ence of opinion regarding the enforcement
of the rules between himself and General
Grant.
In 1884 Mr.. Curtis was dissatisfied with
the nomination Of Hon. James G. Blaine for
the presidency by the Republican convex
tIon, and he took an active part in the
movement which elected Grover Cleveland.
Among the best known of Mr.. Curtis lit
erary works were miles Notes of How
adji," "Lotus Eating" "Potiphar PAPERS,"
"Trumps," novel, and "Prue and l."
which is one of the most delicate and charm
ing collections of sketches in English litera-
ture

ward he became prominent as Democratic
speechmaker, and in 1s49 he was admitted
to the bar.
In 1859 he was the acknowledged leader
of the Douglas party in this city. In the
presidential election that placed Lincoln in
the White House for the first term the
Douglas party in Philadelphia polled nearly
5000 votes, which was due largely to Mr..
Dougherty's earnest efforts In the begin
ming Of 1861, at a public meeting in this
city, Mr.. Dougherty prepared the first reso-
luton ever passed in favor of coercion
against secession. In 1869 the Union League
club was founded with 800 members, one of
whom was Daniel Dougherty.
Mr.. Dougherty delivered in 1859 an ad-
dress on "Fears for the Future of the Re-
public" before the literary societies of La
fayette college. The utterances of the
great orator on that occasion, prophetic as
they proved, caused widespread comment
all over the world, and Sir Edward Bulwer
Lytton was 30 impressed by them that he
quoted and commented on them in the
house of commons.
The last prominent appearance of the
great orator on the political platform was
in 1885, when at the st. Louis convention,
in behalf of the state of New York, he NOM
mated Grover Cleveland. The nomination
was carried by acclamation by the conven-
ton, and Mr.. Dougherty's effort on this oc-
casion was said to have been one of the
most brilliant of his life.
He then changed his place of business to
New York. He married in 1858 Philadel-
phia lady, and their union was blessed with
six children, four sons and two daughters
One of his sons, D. Webster Dougherty, was
associated with his father in his law busi-
ness. In Catholic circles Mr.. Dougherty
stood prominent, and occasionally wrote
articles in defense of his religion and in re-
ply to articles antagonistic to the Roman
Catholic church

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-George William
Curtis, the distinguished author and the
editor of Harper's Weekly, is dead He
breathed his last at his home in West New
Brighton, S. l. At the time he was seated
in his big easy chair, with his son, DR.. F. G.
Curtis, of West Newton, Mass, standing by
his side.
Mr.. Curtis death was painless He was
conscious up to within few minutes of the
end. Then he sank into semiunconscious-
ness, but still showed that he knew when
any one spoke to him. Just as he died he
muttered something unintelligible and his
head fell over on bis breast.
Mr.. Curtis had not been out of the chair
in which he died for the past six weeks.
His illness had all along been puzzle to
the physicians, and it is now not known
exactly what was the cause of death.

pr. Brown.senunra,s Elixir.

In a recent communication to the Acad-
emie des Sciences DR.. Brown-Sequard
gives particulars of some remarkable cures
he has effected by hypodermic injections
OF liquid prepared in his labratory, of
which the composition has already been
made known to science. Nervous diseases,
for instance locomotor ataxy, which is
otherwise difficult or impossible to over
come, he successfully cures. Spasms due
to rheumatism of the muscles and side are
so quickly abated as to appear the result
OF miracle, and the attendant weakness
also disappears. He considers the liquid
not therapeutic, but regeneratfve.
1t increases the cerebral power, and I'm
experiments made with old men it i'm
proved their muscular power and stamina
in wonderful manner. For example, an
old man of eighty-nine recovered the lost
power of mounting his horse. "Sugges-
tion" or faith has apparently nothing to
do with the surprising effects, because ex-
periments were made to test the point. In
one case the injection was simply water,
and the patient showed NO increase of vi
tality. DIR. Brown-Sequard thinks that
epileptic and consumptive patients may
benefit from the remedy, but he wishes to
guard against exaggerated notions Of its
powers. London Globe.
