the condition of ex-President Hayes was
improving and that he was now resting

sudden appearance of Webb Hayes with
the announcement to your representative
that his father had just died proved
shock to all. From Mr. Hayes il is learned
that the condition OF his father took

rapid dissolution followed. The mem

been exceedingly reticent concerning the
condition OF Gen Hayes. and the attend

course.
Your representative just interviewed e
personal friend of the family, who made
the following statement:

A CREATURE OF CHANCE.

Life and Exploits of the Dead Ex-Presi-
dent.
The most re markable thing about Rutherford
Birchard Hayes was that he became president
OF the United States. He was q man of no
great ability above the ordinary. personally
honest il Is true, but with none of those
qualities of leadership usually possessed
by men who become the heads of
republics. Even when placed at the head Of
his party he was not its leader. His great sue
cess in life-for surely attainment OF the high
est place in a nation must be regarded as suc-
cess-seems rather the result OF fortuitous cir
cunlsiancss aud political acc dent than of in
herent merit or well-drected effort.
His Life in Brief.
Mr.. Hayes was born ct Delaware, o., Oct H.
1872, OF parents who were well-to-do. though
not wealthy. He received u good education.
graduating from Kenyon college at twenty.
His boyhood was remarkably free from
the yicissitudes so common 20 the
youth of his locality and his time
aud to this fact may be sscribed the essy-going
ami plastic character which his manhood de-
yeloped. In 1915 young Hayes began the
practice of law at Marietta, having graduated
from the Harvard law school. Five years later

whig by inheritance. young Hayes fell
in with the abolition element at
Cincinnati and joined the republican
party at its birth. In 1856 he was defeated for
common pleas judge. Three years later the
city council made him city solicitor. In 1860
he was elected to the same office by the people
but a year later was Overwhelmingly de-

THE WOOL TARIFF
Aud Its Disastrous Effects on Indiana
Flocks.

To THE EDIToR-Sir: Apropos to the
able review in this mornings SENTINEL
of the wool-growers' resolutions in favor
of the tariff on wool l wish to add few
statistics. It was claimed if wool-growers
were protected by tariff sheep husbandry
would be more profitable, and the number
of sheep thereby would be greatly in
creased. Hence the Garland tariff was
placed upon wool in 1883, and the tariff
has been increased since that date. Now
let us see the result by examining the
sheep statistics in Indiana, beginning
with the number in the state in 1882, q
wear prior to protection:

Gus services of the Hon. David Turpie. For
thirty years be has been q conspicuous figure
in Indiana. His great patriotism. his earnest
devotion to the cause of the people. his high
sense of honor, MS uufinohing integrity and
HE great ability well qualify him for the dis
tinguished position TO which he will soon

With the advent to power Of Grover Cleve-

The above figures are taken from the In
diana statistical report. And the U. S. re-
port for February. 1892. gives the number
of sheep in Indiana as !, l6l. 702. These
figures show a steady decrease in the num-
Der of sheep in Indiana under a high pro-
tective tariff. The Indiana statistics were
put at the wool-growers in their meeting
two years ago when they we're passing
high tariff resol utions. But they shut their
eyes to the facts and passed their usual
buncombe resolutions. How they can do
80 in the face of the record is matter of
amazement. Either the protection claim
is fraud or the farmers are 80 ipnorant
they don't know when they are protected.

4 NOTED MISSIONARY,
Rev. DR.. Ernst. Faber Now in
This CITY.

During the recent brief STAY ofthe
Gaelic, it was the privilege Of some
Of our towns-peOple to meet a COM
pany Of missionaries from different
fields in China and Japan en- route
70 the United States. 1t is 4 pleas
ure TO note that one prominent
member Of this company has de-
cided TO remain over for visit in
Honolulu. This Is the Rev. DR..
Ernst Faber, name widely known
among the missionaries of China,
and among those who are interested
in the people and literature of that
great empire. He is one of the
most eminent of living sinologue
and his literary labors have been Of
a varied and extensive character.
His services in the preparation of
Christian books and commentaries
for the Chinese have been great,
snd he Is still engaged in carrying
forward this good work. DR.. Faber
is now on his way to Chicago to de
liver sn address on "Confucianismn
there during the session of the
=" Parliament of Religions" to be
held in September next. II is to
be hoped that the public may have
the privilege Of hearing this dis
tinguished missionary, during his
stay, on some of the topics in ref
erence TO which he is so reliable sn
authority.-Com.

Ex-TURNKRY WALKER.
The Alleged Opium Thief Again
in Custody.

A. r. Walker who has been
wanted for some time on q charge
Of stealing opium from the station
house was recaptured Tuesday on
the steamer Gaelic.
The police were notified that he
was taken out to the vessel in a
shore boat on Monday night about
1880 o'clock Several policemen
were out to the vessel Tuesday
morning to make a search and
while they were engaged in doing
so, Walker ran on deck and slid
down q davit to the scow which
was lying alongside of the vessel.
He then jumped in a shore boat
which was tied to the scoT. In
the meantime the police made
their appearance and after q scuf-
fe they secured their man. Walker
was taken to the police station.
When searched q revolver was
found on his person. The police
claim that he stole the weapon
from the station house, so an addi-
tional charge of larceny was re-
corded against the ex-turnkey.
Walker was released on $500 bail.

party of seven in attendance,
among whom is Mr.. G. E. Howes,
an official of Cook Sons & Co.,
tourist agency of London, who is
detailed to direct the travelling
arrangements of the prince, arrived
on the steamer Gaelic last week.
The party originally intended
on leaving China to take the
Canadian Pacific steamer Empress
of India for Victoria, British Col
umbia, but hearing that the Gaelic
was to touch at Honolulu the
prince decided to come this way
and visit our famed islands and
volcano.
On the voyage hither owing to
lack of information regarding the
time tables Of the inter-island
steamers, and the uncertainty of
making the volcano trip in time to
cstch the next China steamer,
City of Picking, leaving seven days
hence, the prince decided to con-
tinue on the Gaelic and visit
Alaska instead of the volcano.
The prince is a bright, fine look

twenty, was educated in England,
