The Palace Car Magnate Sue
cumbs to Heart
Disease.
HIS DEATH WAS UNEXPECTED.
Break on the Stock Exchange Results-His
Wife Was in New Yerk-Skstch
of His Life.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-George M. Pull
man died suddenly of heart disease at
. O'Clock this morning. Mr. Puilmsn's
death occurred in his magnificent
brownstone home at the corner of
Prairie avenue and Eighteenth street,
where he has resided many years.
Mr.. Pullman retired last evening at
the usual hour, which was somewhat
early. He apparently was in his or
dinary health and there was no in
dicatlon of his demise, nor indeed any
premonltion OF his illness. Mrs. Pull
man was not home when her husband
passed away, she being absent in New
York.
Mrs. Pullman is accompanied on her
sad homecoming by Sanger W. Pull
man, her younger son. George M,
Pullman, jr, is In the city, together
with the daughter, Mrs. Frank o.
Lowden. The second daughter, Mrs.
Carolan, is in San Francisco, and was
at once summoned to return to Chi
cago.
Mr.. Pullman's death affected the
Chicago market quite appeciably. He
was said to have been heavy holder
in both Diamond Match and New
York Biscuit securities. When the
announcement of Mr.. Pullman's death
was posted on the bulletin board it
caused break IN the latter stocks of
81 points.
A break of points in Pullman Pal
ace Car stock was chronicled on Wall
street, but rally followed.
II is believed in local stock exchange
circles that Horace Porter will sucoesd
Mr.. Pullman as president of the Pull
man Palace Car company.

tire blocks of brick and stone build
ings. In 1859 he resolved to add to

WELCOME TO COTTON.
But Some People Doubt the Safety of the
Plan.

Plan.
Savannah, Oct. l9.-The announce
ment that the sanitary board has
agreed to admit cotton into Savannah
from New Orleans, Montgomery and
Mobile has been received with con-
sternation in some quarters. The
dealers on the Bay are jubilant over
big receipts and the figures Is, 600 are
chalked down in big letters on the
blackboard in the cotton exchange.
But there are other people who look
with fear upon this rule.
Mayor Meldrim said today that the
sanitary board had not decided hastily
in raising the quarantine from cotton.
"Sayannah," he said, "is not likely to
get much cotton from New Orleans or
Mobile even with the quarantine of.
The physicians who are members of
the sanitary board we're unanimous in
their opinion that there is no danger
from cotton coming through an In
fected port, and acting upon this ad-
vice the sanitary board raised the
quarantine on the staple"

Caring For Poor Children.

Sheffield, England, is trying novel
experiment for the solution of the pau
per children problem. Children who
would otherwise be sent to the poor
house are divided among cottage
homes. These homes are managed on
about the same plan as the homes Of
working people. Each home accom-
modates fifteen children, and has at
the head of it a working man and his
wife as foster parents, selected by the
authorities. Both boys and girls have
to assist their mother in the house
work. The older boys are taught
trade, and the girls learn dressmaking,
cooking and other branches Of domes-
tic service. The homes are open to
all visitors, and the ministers of the
neighborhood take, it is said, an ac-
tive interest in the little cottagers.

WISE WORDS.

Only in a world of sincere men is
unity possible, and there, in the long
run, it is as good as certain.
If you have built castles in the air,
your work need not be lost that is
where they should be. Now put foun-
dations under them.
Every day is little life, and our
whole life Is but a day repeated.
Those therefore that dare lose day
are dangerously prodigal,
There can be no social beauty, where
disorder prevails, NO national beauty
where law is set at naught, no beauty
of life where the true ends of life are
disregarded
Character is measured by the dis
lance travelled from the starting point,
and everything depends upon whether
the progress has been up stream or
down.
Bethink thee of something that thou
oughtest to do, and so and do it, if it
be but the sweeping Of room or the
preparing of a meal or a visit to a
friend. Heed not thy feelings: do thy
work.
Politeness is q kind of an@sthetic
which envelopes the asperities of our
character so that other people be not
wounded by them. We should never
be without it, even when we contend
with the rude.
Some say that the age of chivalry i:
past. The age Of ohivalry is never
past so long as there is wrong left
unredressed on earth, or man or ,
woman left to say. I will redress tina
wrong, or spend my life in the at
tempt"

Says Professor Davidson in the
Forum: "The true test and proof Of
Greece's indomitable spirit Of culture
is her educational system. I have
visited Greek schools throughout the
land, from the infant school kept by
the peasant in the open air, against a
sunny hovel wall, to the Arsakelion, or
girls academy, and the noble univer-
sity, with 22OO students. Greece is am
ply able to govern and civilize the lands
now wasted by Turkish misrule. The
sums of money given by rich Greeks
for schools, and the hardships under
gone by the children of the poor in re-
mote districts to avail themselves Of
these, have no parallel anywhere, save
in the United States and Scotland"

The strangeness Of truth has often
been commented upon as exceeding
the most fanciful flights Of fiction. An
illustration of this is furnished in the
career of John Joseph Nouri, who has
been crowned patriarch of the Chal-
dean Pontifcal Cathedral at Trichur,
Mnlalar, and is ruler of the Syrian
Chaldeans. Four years ago he was
committed by Judge Walter H. Levy
to the asylum for the insane at Napa,
Cal, and there he remained until Sep
TENDER, 1898, when, by the efforts of
M. M. Foote, President of the Cali
fornia Association for the Protection
of Persons, he was restored to liberty.
When released from the asylum Nouri
claimed to have been robbed of four
medals studded with diamonds, valued
at $4,000, the gift of the Ohaldean
Greek church, of q negotiable note for
S25OO and of his credentials DIR.
Chalmers Easton believed in him and
helped him on his journey eastward.
Later on he displayed his knowledge
of Greek, and in Washington, D. c.,
at the Smithsonian Institution trans
lated the hieroglyphics on some tablets
there with surprising ease. Intent on
making his journey around the world,
he travelled ON to London and from
there came in May, 1894, the story
That he intended to sue the United
States Government for IS, 900, 900 dam
ages for his i'll treatment while on his
soiourn here. Now comes the climax
to the story in The letter from Rev. John
H. Barrows, Of Chicago, who is travel
ing in India, declaring that John Jo-
seph Nouui, the deposed King of the
Chaldeans, has been restored, that his
claims have been recognized and tina
