SAD ECHOES FRon WE ST END.

THE DEATH OF W, G. HAMILTON,
". @. Hamilton, who died last
night from the result of an acct.
dent, and who will be buried today,
will leave with his friends and
neighbors in cherished memory,
his many acts of kindness and in
defatigable charity. Hamilton
was rather an inner than an outer
man; to have looked on him,
a stranger might have doubted
that Mr.. Hamilton carried
heart as. big as any, and
larger than most men. No man in
his neighbornood could suffer long
without Hamilton's finding it out
and with helping hand offering re-
lief. He was the friend Of General
Russ, who often preferred him to
all others in entrusting to him the
work Of improving West End. He
was at work with Mr.. Eugene
Davis when the angel Of death
winked him to follow, but it seems
even that Providence had first
guided him to take warning and
think Of his family.
Hamilton belonged to a very
charitable secret society, but he
carried no insurance until quite re-
Gently. Not long since he had such
a close call for his life, but escaped
by being only scalded, that he pro-
cured, and his family now has an
incontrovertible policy for S., 200 in
an accident insurance company. 1t
has been reported, in connection
with this insurance, that Mr.. Ham,
ilton owes a SO payment on a note !;
that is the merest bosh, for it was
a physical impossibility for either
Mr.. Hamilton or any friend Of his,
to get that note when 1t fell due, or
to get it during three days Of
grace, or to get it at all,
for that note is not here,
and has not reached, or had
not reached the local agent Of the
company as late as last night, while
the money to take same up is
awaiting it's arrival in one Of our
city banks.
1t is through all the sadness of
the departure OF so good man and
neighbor, that in the nick OF time,
and after so pointed warning, he
provided for the widow and the
fatherless as a guard against the
uncertainties Of life and that will
afford his family one comforting
thought in their bereavement, he
provided with almost his latest
act, for them.

American Thanksgiving.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE Depart

Consul General Mulligan at A pia, report
ing the death of Robert Louis Stevenson.
Under date Of December 8, he writes:
ut is with profound sorrow and sense
of direct personal loss that | report the
sudden and wholly unexpected death of
the distinguished author and great novel;
ist, Robert Louis S evenson, which took
place at his residence at 8:15 on Monday,
the third inst, from a stroke of apoplexy
received about an hour and half before,
while seated at his own hospitable table.
aside from his worldwide reputation
in literature, Mr.. Stevenson was easily the
first citizen of Samoa and the center of its
social life
''The last manifestation of his elegant
hospitality was peculiarly enough at din
ner in celebration of our American
Thank giving day, which occurred exactly
four days before his death and at which,
in response TO toast to his health, he
spoke at length Of his admiration of the
American festival of Thanksgiving and
proceeded in a spirit of religious senti-
ment to recount the many blessings he had
been grateful for.
His remains were inferred on the very
summit of the mountain overlooking his
late home, at 1 O'Clock yesterday, whittier
they were borne with Infinite difficulty by
the hands Of great number of Samoans."

PLUNDERED THE COLLEGE.
Serious Charges Made Against
Boards of Regents.

GUTHRIE, o. T.. Jan. 11.-Major Henry
E. Allgord, president of the Agricultural
and Mercantile College at Saltwater, in
his annual report, made public to-day,
makes some sensational charges against
the college officials.
He declares both the Republican and
Democratic boards of regents have plum
dered the institution. During the first
seven months of the existence of the col
lege, he says, $4,000 was spent, though
not dollar went into the buildings and
the institution occupied a small rented
church.
He says that in less than two years the
members OF theBosrd of Regents drewS86O0
Ia mileage per diem. and that secretary
has been employed to fill an imaginary
office, he drawing $125 a month. The
treasurer, he says, although he handled
hardly $4,000. turned over no record, and
has never made a settlement with the new
treasurer.
Major AlIgord concludes by saying that
the regents refuse to heed his protests,
and tenders bis immediate resignation,
with the promise of laying the matter fully
before the Secretary of the Interior and
the Secretary Of Agriculture.
President Allgord is one of the leading
agricultural college men of the country
and came here from Washington only a
few months ago.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. 11.-Taylor, the
missing Treasurer Of South Dakota. was
thought to have been arrested here to-day.
The police claimed TO have released him.
MEMPHIS, Jan. 12-1:50 A. M.-Chief
DAVIS now says that the prisoner he had
under arrest, represented to be the South
Dakota defaulter, was negro by the name
of Taylor. There are suspicious circum-
stances connected with the case, as, for in
stance, the rumor that the Pierre authori-
ties were wired by the authorities here, and
the extreme reticeDce Of the officers to dis
cuss the matter
PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 1.-THE Taylor de-
falcation still absOrbs all interest at the
capital. Ex-Governor Melette came in
last evening. He is one of the heaviest
bondSmen. and before the flight of Taylor
was known, even TO the State officials, he
wired from Lafayette that he would be
here last night and not to begin suit on
the bonds as he would turn everything
over to the State.
REDFIELD, S. D., Jan. 11.-Advices here
indicate that New York parry repre-
sentiug Taylor suggests meeting of
bondsmen at the Great Northern Hotel in
Chicago on January II to consider
settlement to be held. The impression
prevails here that Taylor is not out of
this country but is in hiding awaiting
compromise which will relieve his bonds
men. The depositors of the bank held a
meetlng tonight to discuss what action to
take in regard to the closed bank.
UTICA, n. z, Jan. 1.-THE defaulting
State Treasurer, W. W. Taylor. has been
a frequent visitor to this country and mar
ried the sister of ex-Sheriff Benedict of
Verona. A large number of people in
this vicinity invested through Taylor in
South Dakota securities.
SIOUX CITY. Ia, Jan. lie w. Miller,
United States District Attorney for the
district of South Dakota, in an interview
here concerning ex-State Treasurer Tay-
lor's shortage, said:
II have learned that Taylor has very
little, if any. of the money taken from the
State by him. Taylor is not the only
man to blame. 1t was known in
State House circles as long as a year
or two ago, when his accounts were
not what they should be. and there was a
determined effort made first to rsnominate
him and then to secure the nomln alton of
a man friendly to him in order to cover his
tracks,"
