members of the Essex County Democratic Committee

matter Of considerable speculation. The enthus-

RUSSELL Is DEAD.
The Well Known Ex-Governor OF
Massachusetts Dies In Canada.

St. Adelaide de Pabos, Quebec, July 16.
-Ex-Governor VIM. Il. Russell Of Mas
~sachusetts, was found dead
this morning. Heart disease
Is the supposed cause of death. He was
prominent as a gold delegate in the Chi
cago convention.
Mr.. Russell was found dead in bed at
the camp of ]. f. Dutton, a Boston bus
mess man. He left his nome shortly af-
ter his return from Chicago for the pur-
pose of seeking rest. He was a guest of
Mr.. Dutton. His body is on the way
home to Boston.
Ex-Governor Russell arrived here
from Boston yesterday afternoon for a
few days fishing. He was accompanied
by his brother and Francis Peabody.
They all retired early last night, the
governor apparently in good health and
spirits. Upon his companions trying to
arouse him this morning they discov-
cred that he vas dead. Death must
have resulted from heart disease.

have been in progress for some time.
The balloon squad. which comes under

The army has two balloons, one pur.
chased abroad and one manufactured In
this country. Experiments have been In
progress with means Of transporting the
gas. and a method has been devised by
which the condensed vapor Is carried In
metallic tubes. Another plan Is TO have

Iney were taxing DOQ the deser-

ton for the alluring charms of the
cities; how young men and women left
the home nest in the country as soon as
they felt any confidence in themselves
and fiocked TO the paved streets and

who stick to the farm and are doing
pretty well. Our reasons for abandon
ing the farm, however, were not those
usually given, and | doubt if a parallel
case can be found" Then he told his
story.
With two brothers and three sisters
he lived on a farm 100 miles from Chi
cago. and they all aided a phlegmatic
father in operating the place. 1t was a
fine piece of land and the family was
happy and prosperous. But dark disas-
ter came one day In the shape of a cab
bage crop. The Chicago market showed
a strong demand for sauerkraut and the
farmer decided to 90 in for A profitable
crop. With the three boys he planted
several acres in cabbage with excellent
results. The crop was cut up and
packed. and when all was done there
were $50 barrels of the finest sauer-
kraut made.
Communicating with n friend in the
grocery business on the North Side. the
farmer received IN order for ten barrels.
A few days later the grocer announced
that the best be could offer was IS cents
a barrel, the top market price. The old
man couldn't stand such a drop as that,
so he had the shipment returned, pay
ing freight charges both ways. Pur-
chasing forty fine young pigs. he be-
gan fattening them on his high grade
sauerkraut. All went we'll for a few
days, but the porkers soon tired of the
diet and began to run from it. The
pile grew high and a few of the stronger
pigs jumped the fence and ral away.
while others sickened and grew weak
from starvation.
1t was a puzzler for the old man, but
he was determined TO derive some bene-
fit, and the boys logged the stuff up to
the orchard near the house. where il
was spread about as a fertilizer. By
this time the entire family grew turbu-
lent at the mere mention of sauerkraut,
and when the sun poured its hot rays on
the picked cabbage the girls rebelled.
The farmer was obdurate, and the three
girls packed their effects and came to
the city. The kraut became so power
full that even the old man could not
stand it, and the boys were instructed
to cart it down to o distant field aud
il. The boys had been on the
verge of mutiny several times. and this
settled it. They all ait out" for Chi
cago and have been here ever since.
