"POOR OLD JOE"

Victim of Gas at the National Hotel.
The jovial and we'll known colored man,
Joe Weaver, is the latest victim of gas as
phyxiaton at the National hotel. He re-
tired at 10 o'clock Wednesday evening after
having talked with clerk Slade for over an
hour about politics and incidents which
Weaver had been lately connected with, ap.
parenty in the best of spirits, and he had
been so for two days, being around at the
polling places Monday, joking and talking.
Yesterday morning, his failing to respond
to knocks on the door led to the belief that
he was dead, and the room being opened
proved the truth of the suppostion. The
body was taken to the Woodland q North
morgue and an inquest held by Coroner
Monroe this morning. Weaver was about
fifty years old, born slave and brought to
Argentine, father of Mat WixOm, of Ban
croft. He was very tall, we'll proportioned,
and in reality fine looking man, we'll edu-
Gated and an excellent conversationalist,
having conelueIdDIe knOWleuRe OF tue
Bible. He has rer ted farms, taken ditch
contracts and worked around Vernon for
years and was most peaceable and popular
colOred man. He has at different times &C
cumulated money and property, but lately
he has not prospered and was said to be at
times respondent. His failure to secure a
place as porter in the senate cloak room at
Lansing had also made him blue. A funeral
will be held in Vernon ard the remains
buried in the Vernon cemetery. Frank
Whelan for whom Weaver has worked at
different times, having made the arrange
ments Many are of the impression that
Weaver committed suicide, but we are not
of this opinion.

Reading, Pa, Aug. 31.-By d vote
of 81 10 % the state democratic ON
mittee last night adopted a resolution
declaring vacant the seat OF William
F.. Harrity, the Philadelphia member
of the democratic national committee.
The committee met in the rooms of
the Americas club, by direction of
the executive committee, TO consider
the question of a vacancy in the ma
tional committee. The proceedings
were exciting from start to finish and
one of the state policemen was called
on to eject Timothy O'Leary of Pitts
burg for interrupting the speaker.
State Chairman Garman presided eX-
Cept for a short time when he surren-
dered the chair to w. r. Brainton
of Lancaster to speak upon the reso-
lutions. Immediately after the meet
ing was called TO order, John b.
Keene of West Moreland offered a res
olution, that a vacancy had been ere

party, James NJ. Guffey of Pittsburg,
who so Loyalty supported William j..
Bryan, be and is hereby selected to
MI the vacancy" A warm debate fol-
and then Chairman Garman, at
the request of Charles p. D~onnelly,
read the correspondence between him
self and Harrity. Garman followed
with a long argument in favor of the
resolution. More heated argument fol-
lowed and n of the members sug-
gested the reference of the question to
Bryan. A vote hen followed with the
result stated, The action of the state
committee will undoubtedly result in
an exciting time in today's conven-

~THURSTON'S INTENTIONS.
Nebraska Senator to Practice Law in

Lincoln, Neb, Aug. 81. The an
UCuncement Of Senator John NJ.
Ihurston in the republican state con-
yention that at the end of his sena-
tCrial term he would not be a candi-
Gate for reelection is the political
sensation Of the hour in Nebraska. He
stated plainly that he was financially
unable to maintain a home both at
Washington and Nebraska and that
political pursuits had not the same
charm for him as the practice of his
profession.
II Is a matter of common knowledge
that Senator Thurston has suffered
financial reverses since his election and
that the lucrative law practice he had
has dwindled to nearly nothing. Sen
ator Thurston's speech left the impress
sion that he would return to Omaha
when his term ended, but 1t is well
known that he will remove to New
York, where an opening is to be made
for him in a prominent law firm, with
an assured income Of not far from
