A Nation Mourns.

Washington. Jan 2S.-One more name
that of James G. Blaine, has been added
TO the list of the nations dead. Once
more the thoughts of the people are
turned toward the man who, as the
"Plumed Knight" was such an object of
devotion. For years he stood in the
very first rank of the great men of the
land and few men have ever welded such
Il potent influence as james G. Blaine.
He was the one whom his party delight
ell TO honor and whose word was law
with his followers. With the exception of
the presidential chair he achieved every
form of success possible to Il statesman
III Il free country. He began ut the bot
tom of the ladder of fame. lie rose to
the top, and with his death there passes
away one of the foremost figures in the
history of the republic. Few mon have
had So many ardent admirers and de-
voted ricnds. He made many bitter
enemies as well. This was but natural
result of the position he filled in life.
But now all animosity is buried. and
friends and political foes alike unite i'll
expressions of regret at the passing away
Of the man from Maine"

through the departments with startling
rnpidity. Within Il few moments after
the event the rumor reached the state de-
pertinent and ran through the entire
building in an inconccivably short space
of time. Officials and clerks poured into
the corridors in search of information
which would substantiate the rumor,
and the telephones were kept busy with
inquiries. The first intimation of his
death came by word of mouth, and soon
after was officially confirmed from tie
White House. While the death Of the
statesman created IL profound sensation
throughout the building, this feeling was
intensified in the state department, where
there is hardly an official or employc
who had not Il personal acquaintance
with the dead man. Although the event
was daily expected and every one was
