LBY is DEAD.
The Famous Confederate Yields to the In-
evitable.

Kansas City, Mo. Feb. 13.-Gen. Joe
o. Shelby died at his country home
eight miles from Adrian at o'clock
this morning. AT consultation of
physicians last night il was given out
that death must come before morning
and the family remained constant
watchers at his bedside.
Shelby was taken seriously i'll 10 DAYS
ago with pneumonia and gradually
grew worse. His vitality was great
however, and half a dozen times since
then when given up to die the patients $
remarkable recuperative power assert
ed itself and he each time revived
During all of last Sunday night and
most of Monday the patient talked con-
tinually in an irrational way. At times
he recognized those about him, but only
for moment, when he would again
lapse into comatose or delirious state.
He began to sink rapidly Tuesday
morning and in a few moments his
pulse was almost imperceptible. Until
that moment Mrs. Shelby,who had been
constantly at the generals bedside, be-
lieved he would survive. She then gave
way, prostrated by the physical and
mental strain. Later the general re-
vived somewhat. but remained uncon-
scious till death and practically took
no medicine or nourishment. Definite
arrangements for the funeral have not
yet been made. but it is believed Shelby
will be buried in Kansas City, where
his family reside.

I'VE suggest to the honorable mem

on the same general lines as the state
bureaus of insurance. Thousands of
dollars are annually stolen from the
merchants of every important city in

solicitors who are either frauds them
