reporter for the latest news, the signifi,

"He is dead" said DR.. Johnston,
"and he passed away peacefully"
The doctors did not give the exact
time of death, but it was observed that
about 1O:45 the windows in the room of
the sick chamber were slightly raised.
Later twas learned that death came at
II o'clock.
The news of Mr.. Blaine 8 death spread
like wild fire. Crowds gathered on the
corners, and visitors fiocked to the
house. DR.. Hamilton, who was pass.
ing the house when the announcement
OF death was made, at once entered,
and remained with the family for some
time. Word was sent to the President
Immediately after the death.
At 1875 President Harrison, accom-
panied by Private Secretary Halford
and Lieutenant Parker, walked over to
the Blaine mansion. The President
showed marked signs of grief. Post
master General Wanamaker followed
the footsteps of the President.
Young Mr.. Blaine was in the act of
writing note to President Harrison to
inform him of the event when the Pres
ident himself arrived, accompanied by
his private Secretary and Secretary
Foster. All the rest of the Cabinet
quickly followed, and the excitement
throughout the city became general as
the news spread.
Both houses of Congress adjourned
and the former associates of the ex-
Senator and ex-Speaker of both politi-
cal parties united in eloquent tributes
to his memory.
A public funeral was suggested, but
the wishes of the family prevailed, and
the ceremonies will be of a private ma
ture. They will be held in the Presby-
terrain Church of the Covenant, where
Mr.. Blaine was a pew holder, on Mon
day morning. DR.. Hamlin, who offici-
ated at the funeral of Mrs. Harrison
and her father, will conduct the serv-
ices. The remains will be laid to rest
in the beautiful Oak Hill Cemetery, in
Georgetown, which now forms part of
Washington City, by the side of his
favorite son, Walker Blaine, and his
daughter, Mrs. Coppinger The physi-
clans have officially made public the
cause of death as Bright's disease, ag-
gravated by tubercular disease of the
lungs.

niiles etSJ OF BrlSt0l. Smaller Offsets
occur in Blackwater Valley, in Han.
cock County, and in Powell's Valley,
near Cumberland Gap.
There was no trouble about the line
any more until along in the SOS, when
the country had become more thickly
settled. Confusion then arose as to
the proper location of the boundary
because of the destruction by fire and
otherwise of marked trees.
In 1888 both States agreed on Joint
commission, with power to appoint en-
gineers to run out and remark the COM
promise line of 1902. The Virginia
Commissioners were Leonidas Baugh
and James Black, of Abingdon, and
Tennessee was represented by General
Milligan, of Greeneville, and Colonel
George B. Mcclellan, of Sullivan Coun-
ty. A careful survey was made and
exhaustive reports of the same submit
ted to the respective Governors. The
Commissioners reported that they had
found no difficulty with the old line,
and that it was correct according to
the compromise.
Governor Wise, of Virginia, recon-
mended the rejection of the report,
which the legislature proceeded to do.
His objection was based on the fact
that the engineers commenced their
survey at the base of White Top Noun
tain, instead of going to the top. Ten
nessee never acted on the report, and
so matters existed until the suits were
instituted at Bristol three years ago.
If the Commonwealth of Virginia
gains this famous suit, much that is
novel and makes romance for Bristol
will be knocked out. The new court
house and city hall will be useless, and
the new school building will have to
be converted into church. The mu-
nicipal officers will be forced back to
their former professions. Father Bur-
roughs, who has married more than
three hundred runaway couples from
Virginia in the past two years, will
have to move to some small village
near the line-and that is not the worst
of it; those three hundred couples he
married will be unmarried, as the cere-
mony was performed in Virginia.
Every one knows that when a man
commits crime in Tennessee he can
run over into Virginia and avoid arrest
until requisition is obtained from the
Governor. The other day the officers
of Bristol, Tennessee, pursued colored
man for a crime he had committed.
He escaped into Virginia, where the Of
ficers of that State tried to arrest him
Tor robbery on their side. He ran
back toward Tennessee, but about the
time he reached Main Street, the
thought struck him that he was wanted
on that side. He stopped in the mid
die of Main Street, put one foot in Vir-
ginia and one in Tennessee, while on
each side stood two or three policemen.
He defied arrest, and they left him
there.
