GEN. MALONE DEAD.


The Virginia ex-senator and Republican
Leader Passes Away.
WASHINGTON, Oct 9--Gen. William
Malone, ex-United States senator
from Virginia, died here at 1 O'clock
yesterday afternoon from paralysis He
was stricken during the night of
September % and only partially
rallied. His case had been hope
less for some days Gen William
Malone was the republican boss"
of Virginia In politics he had
many years been power; he possessed
an aptitude for political dealing
amounting almost to genius
Gen. Malone emerged from the war
with the halo of glory about his name.
through the city council. offered
him a lot to build on. 1t was a
recognition of the services of the
gallant Malone brigade. He was a
son of the state and, after Lee and
--Stonewall'' Jackson, her greatest
fighter IN the rebellion. Gen. Malone
did not accept the lot offered by the
city, but the citizens united again and
by subscription bought a house
and lot and presented it to Mrs.
Malone. She likewise declined to
accept the gift But the general
bought on Market street and built the
residence which he had since occupied,
together with Mrs. Malone and his
two sons, William and Butler, and his
daughter, Nettie. Malone and the ex-
PLOTS of the Malone brigade were cele-
brated in prose and song. For years
the Little Wizard was the idol of
his people.
Gen. Malone made an unsuccessful
attempt to secure the nomination for
governor of Virginia in 1878, espoused
the cause of the readjuster party and
became its leader and afterwards
got a seat in the United States
senate in 1880 He served seven
years in that body, being retired by
defeat at the polls. He was like fire.
brand cast into mass of dry finder,
and from the peculiar attitude that he
al once assumed he caused one of the
most bitter controversies and stub
born deadlocks ever known in the
history of that body. He at last
acted with the republicans, and gave
them the organization of the senate.
His course brought down upon his
head the wrath of the democrats, but
the republicans received him with
open arms and the federal patron
age in Virginia was turned over
to him. Since that time he had been
the repu blican leader of Virginia AL
though he had resided almost con-
stantly in this city since he left the
senate, he retained the republican lead
ership in Virginia, and in 1890 was a
candidate for governor

A SIGNIFICANT MOVE.

The United States North Atlantic Squadron
to Cruise in the Vicinity of Cuba an d
Venezuela.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-The winter
plans for the north Atlantic squadron
are important and very significant, in
view of the situation in Cuba, and the
attitude this country has assumed
toward British encroachment in Vene-
zuela. The north Atlantic squadron is
to be greatly strengthened Transfers
are to be made SO as to assem- BILE
in that squadron about all the best
vessels in the navy, and instead
of ceasing their squadron drill
for the winter, they will con-
tinue it in the southern waters. The
result will be that the strongest
squadron that this country has ever as
sem bled will be cruising in the vicinity
of Venezuela. British Guiana and Cuba.
An impressive demonstration of force
will thus be made, but it will be under
the guise of practice drills. This new
movement is regarded as of the utmost
Importance and as of far more signif-
canoe than any similar action of the
authorities for many years past 1t is
supposed to mean that the administra-
ton proposes to strictly enforce the
Monroe doctrine and to have power
behind itself to bring about the en-
forcement

of nature in the most approved manner.
A snake invariably grabs the frog by
one of his hind legs. This preliminary
struggle is one of the most impressive
features of the combat. With a WE'LL
defined natural instinct the chief eff
fort of the frog is to keep his other
hind leg away from the snakes mouth.
in the hope that he may speedily ex--
haust his enemy's strength, and also
because he feels that if his other hind
leg is made captive he will have less
power to fight.
Once both hind legs are within the.

begins Inch by inch the struggling
frog is drawn further and further into.

The gullet of the snake in its natural
proportions is quite large enough to-

swallowing increases. Gradually the
