HAD STRONG NERVE.
Medical Suicide Notes Changes as
Life EbbS Away.
Explained His Condition as Calmly as a
Professor at a Clinic.

BALTIMORE, Mo-, Aug 29.-Dr. Argyle
Mackey, the young Washington physi-
clan who shot himself in the breast in
the City Hospital, died yesterday morn
ing from his wounds. lie is supposed
to have had trouble in love affair, and
he hao been drinking and taking NOR
phine to excess. Mem pers OF his family
were with him when he died.
The dying msp.was consciou' to the
last, and calmly noted each change that
took place in his condition as the emo
drew near. He even trisd 10 feel his
own huttering pulse, and told how every
beat OF his heart was throwing into the
lung cavity certain portion of his life's
blood, and measured with remsrka ble ac-
curacy the length of time the internal
hemorrhage would take TO kill him.
lie repeatedly felt OF the tips of his
fingers and noted the slowly decreasing
power Of circulation. Early In the night
his body began to swell snd he eplained
that the swelling was due to the escape
of air from his left lung. which the
bullet had punctured.
His nerve was wonderful and he was as
calm as IL he had been one OF the pro-
fessors of the hospital delivering n clinic
lecture at the bedside of diving patient
lie bBde his weeping mother and btot her
farewell with no more emotion than IL he
had been going on q short journey. The
dead man was about IS years old.

LOUISIANA LYNCHINGS.
United States viii Undoubtedly Have to
Pay an Indemnity.

Washington Aug. 29.-The state de-
partment has received the report of the
governor of Louisiana on the recent
lynchings in that state. The report will
not be given out for publication. but will
be transmitted to the Italian govern
ment. The report states, In general
way, that after thorough investigation
by the state authorities no affirmative
evidence can be found that the men
lynched were Italian subjects. 1t cam
not be learned either that they have ever
taken out American naturalization pa
pers. The governor says that every effort
Is being made by the authorities OF the
state to find the perpetrators of the
deed. AS the governors report does not
appear TO mitigate the circumstances of
the affair, there seems to be little doubt
but that the United States will have to
pay an indemnity. The case is similar
to that which occurred in Colorado last
year, at which time Secretary Olney rec
cmmended to congress that indemnity
be given TO the families OF the Italians
killed. The Italian government is quite
as insistent that the perpetrators of
these crimes be punished as that money
should be paid in indemnity.

fellow citizens everywhere will give to
the national ticket and TO your party a
triumph, the like OF which we have not
had for many years. We cannot over
estimate the value Of the young men In
politics.
Gentlemen. you never had worthier
cause to serve for than you have this
year. The financial honor OF the country
and the prosperity of all its people are
enough 10 inspire every American heart
TO the best possible effort i have seen
somewhere an inquiry: Cannot the
United States establish a financial
system OF it's own: is II too weak and
dependent TO do thatY i answer: The
United States now has a financial policy
which In the main II has been-pursuing
since the beginning Of the government.
and which IL does not mean to change
until IL can find a better one. Those who
make the inquiry are usually against
our American policy of finance. and they
are insisting that we shall adopt the
financial policy OF China and Mexico
hope IL will not be thought an evidence
OF lack of national spirit or national in
dependence that we decline to adopt
their proposition"
A delegation OF 900 people from the
east Ohio united brethren conference fol-
lowed closely upon the call of the league
committee. Bishop j. S. Mills made the
presentation Of the party. To this Mr.
Mckinley replied:
1T gives me sincere pleasure TO re :

graduation. / am deeply appreciative
OF the message of good will which you SO
kindly bring from the great religious
body which you represent. 1t is good
omen when religious teachers are alive

fare. Nothing is more worthy of your
study and consideration than those ques-
tions which tend TO make the country
great, prosperous and righteous. Civic
virtue is a good text for the preacher
always. but better thing for every citi-
zen to guard in his daily life. Good
citizenship lies at the foundation Of our
true greatness. Those who proclaim IL
are indeed Christian teachers and pub
lie benefactors. The better the citizen.
the better a free government and it's
laws. 1t is gratifying fact, as you state.
that in our form Of government charac-
ter counts for so much. The lack OF II
amounts to almost a disqualification for
public trust. Whatever mems indivld-
ual opinion on moral questions are, or
may be. whether good or bad; whatever
may be their party affiliations all pre-
fer that public officials shall be OF high
character and worth They may be
needless OF virtue and careless OF their
own lives. but they insist that those who
are to execute the public will shall be
men Of unquestioned integrity"

there would now be hundreds OF miles OF
toll roads in the State which have long since

to purchase a road which lay wholly within

rs long ago as 1889, Mr.. Mount recognized
the evil in the system of school enumeration
which was remedsed only at the last session
Of the General Assembly. Being resident
OF a country school district himself and
man who kept himself informed upon all
matters of pubic interest, he recognized in
the old system the injustice TO the country
districts and sought 10 remedy that inJus-
tice by legislation He introduced q bill al
most Identical to that passed by the last
Legislature. The bill was defeated by the
Democratic majority as the probable result
Of the vigorous lobbying against IL by some
cities and towns, which benefited by the old
method at the expense of the country dis
tricts.
Mr.. Mount has been the correspondent of
the Agricultural Department at Washington
with farmers in various parts of the country
has been established. He Is the president Of
the Indiana Good Roads Association and Of
