turned out Of office as a consequence of
Croker's victory last year. On October
2 he was appointed head of the COM
mission to select camp sites in Cuba,
and to arrange for sanitary improve
ments there. He paid special attention
to the problem Of cleaning Havana, and
there is some comfort in the news that
his report in that important matter was
practically finished, and that the con-
illusions which he reached are available

Colonel Wa-ing," writes E. s Mar
tin in Harper's Weekly, was a delight
full companion and a very agreeable
writer. Long ago he published some
civil war stories under the title of
Whip and Spur as well as other
sketches, but of late years his writing,
well as his work, has been in the
line of his profession. His work, though
of immense value to his fellow country
men, had not enriched him. He died
in the service of his country, at the
height of his reputation, but without
having accumulated even such a for
tune as would avail for the modest sup
port of his widow. The proposal that
comes from ex-Mayor Strong, of New
York, that a fund should be raised in
his memory for Mrs. Warnings benefit is
timely and suitable, and is likely to find
prompt and cordial support from thous-
ands of citizens who feel themselves to

Of the Son of Mayor Ziegenhein
of st. Louis.
Was on a Hunting Trip in
Arkansas
WHEN He FELL SICK.
The Mayor Was Notified and
Started on a Special.
Arrived at His Sons Bedside 5
Minutes Too Late.

St. Louis. Nov. 21.-Adam Ziegenhein,
son of the mayor, died in ParagOuld,
Ark, at GAS p. m. Saturday, just five
minutes before his father arrived at
that place on a special train from St.
Louis. The cause of death was gan
creme of the small intestine. following
strangUlated hernia.
The body was placed on the st. Louis
special as soon as possible and his faith
er and those who accompanied him
started back to St. Louis.
Hardly a week ago he started to Par
agOuld with Health Commissioner Max
c. Starl6Ion, intending to seek recrea-
ton from official duties for a fortnight,
in hunting and fishing. In addition to
his official duties as private secretary
to his father, Mayor Ziegenhein. he only
recently had passed through the strain
of a hard fought political campaign.
Mayor Ziegenhein readily granted a
vacation to his private secretary and
supposed that everything was progress
ing smoothly, until 1915 a. Satur-
day, when a Western Union messenger
boy handed him the following message
from DR.. StarklOff:
"Paragould, Ark, Nov 19.-Your son
Adam is seriously i'll. Come at once"
The mayor Immediately telephoned to
General DOddridge of the Iron Noun
tain and made arrangements for a spec
ial train to convey him and his party to
the scene of his sons illness at once.
The run from St. Louis to Paragould
a distance Of 220 miles, was made in 6
hours and As minutes. A minute stop
was made at De Soto to change en-
gines The only other stops were for
water. The throttle of the engine was
pulled wide open by the engineer. but
even at that the train did not go fast
enough for the anxious father and he
paced the floor of the car almost the
entire distance.
That he should have arrived at the
station just five minutes after his son
had expired, seems to have been a de-
cree of fate. The sick man had been
brought to a hotel in the town, which
was not more than a block distant from
the station. DR.. Starkloff was at the
station waiting as the train pulled in.
The mayor rushed out and anxiOusly
inquired for news. Slowly and sorrow
fully DR.. StarklOff told him the worst.
After the mayor recovered from the
shock, he sent the following telegram
to A. L. Alt, who was waiting in his
private office for news:

Frank Mccormick, Who Owned
a Missouri Still,
TO INVADE THE STATE
Thinks There is a Good Open
ing For an Investment.
Does Not Seem to Be Deter
red by the Murray Law.

Leavenworth, Nov. 21.-That this city
is to have a distillery in the near future
is now almost an established fact. The
plans for the new enterprise are under
the direction of Frank Mccormick, the
distilIery man who formerly owned the
plant at Waldron, Mo.
Mr.. Mccormick is well known in this
city and he is often seen here. His
last visit to Leavenworth was last week
and it is said that he was making ar
engagements then looking towards put
ting in a distillery here.
He thinks the opening for a business
of this kind here is a splendid one and
if the proper encouragement was given
him that he would go into the business.
Mr.. Mccormick has been in this bust
ness for years and is well acquainted
with all the details of it. Should he
open a plant of the kind in the city
there is no reason why it should not
prove a good investment, as there are
abundant resources to supply a dis
tillery with all the materials necessary
to operate it.
Besides being a point centrally located
and easy of access fuel is cheaper and
labor is as cheap as it can be had any
where.
