of an apoplectic stroke, and medical aid,
which was promptly invoked, was pow
erless 10 afford relief.
In the demise Of Mr. Caldwell,
Wheeling looses one OF her best known
and Oldest citizens. With the excep-
ton of the venerable Daniel Lamb, he
was the oldest member Of the Ohio
county bar, having been born In 1913.
For more than thirty years he was in
active practive in the Courts OF this
city and State, and prior to 1856 he
practiced his profession extensively In
! Mississippi and elsewhere In the far
| South. A graduate OF the law depart
meut Of Harvard University, he early
| took a high position in his profession,
aud both during his residence in the
| South and after his return to
his native city OF Wheeling, he
achieved distinction as hard worker,
a sound thinker, and a man OF more
than ordinary ability. Mr.. Caldwell
married 10 Mississippi, and returned 10
Wheeling In 1856, after long absence.
! He engaged in the practice Of his pro-
fession until the outbreak of the war,
being once chosen Prosecuting AttOr-
ney of this county. At the outbreak OF
tho rebellion Mr.. Caldwell at once took
q decided stand for the preservation Of
the Union, and his voice was often rails
ed and his influence often exerted in
that behalf When the formation Of
the State of West Virginia was agitated
he took leading part ia the momentous
political events Of the times, and when
the State was organized, he was elected
tho first Attorney General, under Gov
ernor BOreman's administration, the
election being held on the fourth Thurs
day in May, 1868, He served until
March 3, 1865, when he resumed the
private practice Of law, but in July,
1869, when Attorney General Thayer
melvin IGSlk utus MI SGt0 won U0o %
pointed to Gil the vacancy, remaining
in office until January l, 1871. For
twenty years thereafter Mr.. Caldwell
remained In active practice, but OF late
has lived in quiet retirement, his resi-
dence being successfully on Fourteenth
street, on Chaplaine street, and for the
last year with his son-in-law, Mr.. l. &.
Noise. on the Island.
Mr.. Caldwell was the oldest son OF the
late Joseph Caldwell, whose residence
was in the old stone house still standing,
at the head of Twenty-ninth street, and
which was built about the beginning Of
the century. The wife Of deceased and
two children survive him, as does Alex
suder T. Caldwell, of Texas; Henry c.
Caldwell and DR.. S. B. Caldwell, broth
ers. Mrs. Caroline M. Wilson, OF New
York City, and Mrs. Mary Merritt, sis
ters. The time OF the funeral has not
yet been announced.

cerned philosopher, II be considers the

that Is small comfort TO the girl who

M'KINLEYIsM WORKING.

The figures of the Treasury Depart
ment show that imports and exports for
the past ten moaths of the fiscal year
were valued At 81, 4s7, $50, 53S, or 50 per
cent. less than in the latter period Of
1912.
Under the operation Of the Mckinley
iniouity, we are exporting less and buy
ing more abroad.
For the ten months ending April 30,
1892, we have bought $50, 500. $50 worth
more abroad than we sold, against ba-
lance for the samo period Of the pre-
ceding year, on the opposite side, Of
sl97, 276, 313.
McKinleyism, aided by its side-part-
ner the Sherman silver purchase law,
is justifying predictions by dragging
down the prosperity of the country at
both ends.
The Mckinley tariff and "reciproci-
"" are gradually throttling our export
trade, while the Sherman law is playing
smash with business at home.
The duty Of the new Democratic Con-
gress is plain.
Reform the tariff and repeal the sher-
man act.

TO AVOID COLDS.
Keep Your Mouth shut when Coming
Out OF Hot Rooms.


Out OF Hot Rooms.
There are two very simple ways OF
avoiding pain and colds" SAID Henry
Mcintosh, who is at the Southern.
Zone OF these is to shut your eyes, and
the other is 10 shut your mouth. The
man who comes out OF an overheated
room, especially late at night, and
breathes through his mouth, will either
catch a bad cold or irritate his lungs
sufficiently TO cause considerable annoy
ance and unpleasantness. II he will
lust keep his mouth shut and breathe
through his nose this difficulty and dan
ger are entirely avoided. Nine chills out
OF every ten are the result OF people
talking freely while out OF doors just
after leaving room full OF hot
air, aud theatre goers who dis
cuss and laugh over the play on their
way home are inviting sickness. Ii 10
inst the same with regard TO shutting
the eyes. Every man who travels u
long distance gets dust or something
worse In his eye occasionally and pro-
ceeds to take every ones advice TO get
IL out, sometimes rubbing II aud some
times pulling one lid over the other.
The next time you get a speck Of dust
or metal in your eye just shut It and
keep II shut for over minute. Nature
will then come to your relief, aud there
will be enough tear-libe moisture to get
rid OF the obstruction, which will be
found I'm one OF the corners when the
eve Is finally opened. The worst Of
these two prescriptions IS that they are
entirely too simple. Mankind loves
nartyrdom in connection with medi'
cine or surgery."--St. Louis Republic.
