Joseph Wolf Falls Dead in Martins
Ferry OF Heart Disease.
Joseph Wolf. who has been employed
at William Mann's foundry. in Mar
tins Ferry, for many years. dropped
dead in that city, on Second street,
about o'clock last evening. He
boarded at the residence of Capt, John
Hutchinson, on Clay street. and after
eating his supper last evening lie was
walking I'd Second street, and while
passing the bill board opposite the City
building he fell to the ground, falling
with his face downward.
VIII A. Miller manager OF the opera
house, was examining the bill board
at the time, and the first he knew OF
Mr.. Wolf falling was when he heard
him Sroaping, and he gave the alarm,
and Drs. A. W. Driven and ]. VI. Ho-
gan were summoned. Wolf was carried
10 the city building by Alexander Linn,
Armstrong Ncel and William Thomas.
ad he was afterward conveyed to the
residence Of his brother, Edward f.
Wolf, on Hickory street. He was dead
when the city building was reached.
and the physicians said that his death
had been caused by heart disease. 1t
Is thought that he never entirely re-
covered from injuries received while
coasting on Fayette street when boy.
He had been under the treatment OF q
physician lately. and had complained
considerably.
Mr.. Wolf felt better yesterday morn
ing, and went to work. His fellow
workmen noticed that he had an I'M
natural look during the afternoon. AMI
a part OF his work was done by Other
employees. He resided on Hickory
street until after the death OF his moth
er, Mrs. Eliza Jane Wolf, some years
ago. He has a brother and sister liy-

Our little boy Royal had fits. He
would drop to the floor, sometimes for
ward, sometimes backwards, as II he
was dead, and II he was eating, his head
would drop on to his plate, so we had
TO hold up his head all the time he was
eating. II he went across the floor some
one had to lead him, ard the slime
would run from hts mouth. His stom-
ach was so weak that his food would
not digest, and every muscle of his body
would twltch so II was impossible for
him to do anything.
For two years We took him to our
local doctors and they could do nothing
to help him, and they advised US to take
him 10 specialist. We did so and he
told US that he had epilepsy and was In
durable. He lost his speech for six
weeks and continued having the fits so
he would have nine or ten In a night.
We saw DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy advertised in the paper,
so got bottle and gave 1t to Royal as
directed. and in three days the fits left
him and we have not seen any Of them
since. Now he goes to school and seems

A CAUSE FOR ALARM.

A correspondent Of "The London Times" who
has been with the troops In Florida sends home
a letter in praise of our Regular officers and
soldiers which might be studied with profit by
the ever-beautiful and gallant James Hamilton
Lewis. Of Washington, and other Congressman
who object to Regulars, and particularly desire
to shield free-born American citizens from the
indignity Of having to serve under West Point
martinets." These people did not want eXpan-
sion Of the Regular Army. They looked upon
the Regular officers as tyrants seeking 10 lord
1t over their men, and service under them as a
hardship which no self-respectlng man could
endure.
Well this Is what the Englishman says who
has observed the conduct Of those officers and
men through the trying time Of mobilization
and expansion, when If ever, friction would
develop and tempers be displayed:
The men evidently regard their officers as SOL
diers of equal courage and superior technical
knowledge l cannot recall an instance OF an
officer addressing private otherwise than Is
usual when q gentleman issues order.
have never heard officer. on-cOmms
stoned officer. curse a man. During the en-
gagement at Cabanas the orders were issued as
quietly as at any other time. and the men went
about their work steadily as bluejackets on
a man-o-war
What will James Hamilton Lewis say to
that? officers treating the men like gentle
men! Giving orders for fighting In a quiet
voice instead Of fourshing swords and shout
ing! What kind Of martinets are these any
how? They do not appear to be any more des-
perate, Constitution breaking and dctator-cre-
ating military chieftains than James Hamilton
Lewis himself. and we doubt II they are half
so warlke or would make a third pretty
n picture rushing headlOng into battle II
James Hamilton Lewis were fighting he
wouldn't give orders Just ms II he were getting
a beefsteak That would be too tame His
sword would glitter, his eyes would fash, his
whiskers would stand out, he would utter strk-
ing phrases Of counsel and inspiration TO his
men which would be quoted through all gen
erations In the history books. What Is war
without shouting and brave oaths? There Is
nothing TO stir the blood in quiet words Of com
mand They make Of fighting mere matter
of-fact business. where knowledge, discipline
and self-possesson count more than buster.
This will never do. Even the polltencss OF
West Pointers will not excuse their tendency
10 make the work of commanding troops an
expert one and transform military methods so
that the windy virtues OF political colonels will
have no place in the Army.
James Hamilton Lewis should look into this
II the West Pointers are becoming 80 polite
that privates look on them with favor and are
glad 10 work under them. and do not feel that
they are being tyrannzed over, there Is ground
for suspicion that they have designs on the
liberty Of the country Perhaps they want to
become 90 popular that the people will look
with favor on larger Regular Army. and then
