DIED AS HE WISHED.

End of All Things Earthly Came Sud-
denly for Colonel nsersoll.
. NEW YORK, July 24.-The death OF
Robert G.. Ingersoll, which occurred at
his home, Walston.on-Hudson, near
Dobbs Ferry, was sudden and unex-
pected and resulted from heart disease,
from which he suffered since 1896. In
that year, during the Republican na-
tional convention, he was taken =! and
had to return home. He never fully
recovered from the attack Of heart dis
ease and was under the care of physi-
clans constantly.
For the last three days Mr.. Ingersol]
had not been feeling we'll, but nothing
serious was anticipated. He spent the
forenoon on the verandah at his home
and at 1890 o'clock he went upstairs.
On reaching the head of the stairs
Colonel Ingersoll turned into his wife'a
room.
Death Came as He Desired It.
, He seemed in good spirits then. After
talking for few minutes Colonel In,
gerson crossed the room and sat down
ina rocking chair. He leaned his head
upon his hand which rested on the back
Of tho chair. Mrs. Ingersoll asked him
how he was feeling and he REPLIED: .
4. 'sOh, better"
These were his last words. A second
after they were uttered he was dead.
The only sign noted by Mrs. Ingersoll
was that the whites of his eyes sud
denly showed. There was not even a
sigh or groan as death came. Doctors
were hastily called, but their verdict
was that he had died instantly. Death
came to him as he had recently ex-
pressed desire it should.

Washington County Court.

After the business of empaneling jury
in the case of State against Smith had been
completed Tuesday evening States AT
torney Hoar moved for sentence in the case
of Walter Stow of Waterbury, convicted of
assault with intent to kill. F. L. Laird,
counsel for Stow, made a strong appeal in
the respondents behalf, and the States
attorney urged a severe penalty. The court
sentenced Stow to hard labor in the State
prison at Windsor for not less than ten nor
more than eleven years, and to pay costs Of
prosecution.
Sheriff G. G. Graves was the first witness
examined in the case Of State against
Smith. Sheriff Graves testified that up TO
the occurrences at Mrs. Bianchi's last July,
the respondent Smith was a deputy sheriff.
After the affair at Mrs. Bianchi's he was
allowed to r. sign the next day, to save hav-
ing his commission as deputy sheriff revOk-
ed, Mr.. Graves detailed at length what
took place at Mrs. Bianchis when he and
W. A. Lord were secreted in room adj
joining the one occupied by Smith and Mrs.
Bianchi.
Mrs. Bianch was on the stand for an
hour or more. Her testimony largely cor
roborated that given by the sheriff She
also told at length how Smith came to her
| house with a search warrant, but told her
il she would pay him 800 he would not
raid the house and would protect her in
| future She put him OF on the excuse that
she had not the ready money and consulted
! Mr. Lord in regard to the matter.
| Ceserea Caslllna, who was present when
| Smith attempted to bargain with Mrs.
Bianchi for 500, detailed the circumstances.
| His English was very broken and it was
necessary for Mrs Laird, the official re-
| porter, to translate many OF his answers to
the jury.
| Mr.. Casalini was recalled Wednesday
afternoon and was subjected to rigid cross
examination. His original statements
We o, however, not materially changed
W. A. Lords testimony was subst annually

Woman Seriously Injured.

Mrs. Jared Ke minis of Berlin, aged about
seventy years, while driving across the
crossing about mile from Montpelier
junction at ten o'clock this morning, was
struck by the south bound dairy freight and
seriously injured. The engine struck the
horse killing it instantly. The carriage
was wrecked and Mrs. Kenms thrown
several feet away from the track.
The train was stopped and when the
woman was found it was feared that she
also had been killed. She was left in the
care of brakeman and the engine was de-
tached from the train and run to Mont
peier Junction for medical aid.
Dr. Percy l., Templetou attended the in.
jured woman. Before the engine returned
to the scene Of the accident, Mrs Kcmmis
regained consciousness and appeared to be
suffering terribly from her injuries.
The crossing whore the accident occurred
is a blind one, and is located just below
what is known as the Eaton farm. A rise
in the land at this place obscured the team
from the view OF the engnemen, so that the
train was upon it before 1t wac possible tt

them to render verdict OF not guilty.
This case grew out Of the investigation of
the aft airs of the Montpelier liquor agency,
which extended back to the time when Mr.,
Gilman was city liquor agent. On testi-
mony Of Michael Slattery he was indicted
by the grand jury for selling on his private
account while acting as city agent There
was really no evidence against MIR. Gilman.
The action taken by the court was urged by
G. w. Wing counsel for the respondent.
G. II. Campbell OF Barre recognized az
surety for George w. Smith Thursday even
ing in the sum OF 81, 900, and Smith was re-
leased from custody.

The Navy Department and Its Favor
ties,

Respecting Admiral Schley's assign
ment to the South Atlantic station the
Record of Boston says
Gov Long declares that the navy depart
ment has no i'll will to Schley, and yet he
starts next week to the naval Botany Bay
Of the South Atlantic, post detested 10y all
naval officers, while unknown admirals,
who never participated in fight, are com
manding such choice squadrons as those in
the North Atlantic, in Asia, and on our own
west coast. Really, chasing mp Schley
since he won the battle of Santiago, ought
to stop. OF course it was intended that
Sampson should win it, and II he had, no
one would have complained, but, as he was
not around the time that the battle came
off why keep pecking at Schley, and acting
as if he had committed an objectionable
sin?
While unknown captains who never
participated in fight, like Higginson
of Massachusetts, commander of the
battleship Massachusetts, who was
forty miles away from the scene when
the naval battle of Santiago de Cuba
was fought, have been promoted to the
rank of rear admiral, Captain q. E.
Clark, the hero of the Oregon's famous
cruise, the naval officer most conspicu-
GUS for brilliant and effective service in
the handling of his ship and in the
total extinction of the Spanish squad
ron, is still captain, doing duty at
League Island navy yard, and Secretary
Long seems to think his services do
net call for any recognition.
The republic is not ungraleful, but
officialdom at Washington is muzzling
the expression of its gratitude and ap'
probation in practical way. If CLARK
or Schley were a Massachusetts, man
their fortunes would have been differ.
ent. Admiral Schley's case is very
different from Captain Clark's. The
former has received promotion ade
quate, probably, to his deserts. In ad
dition he has the admiration of thu
American people TO console him and hi
can smile at the sings and arrows of {
few outrageous critics. His present com
mand is an honorable one and he cal
find new glory and honor in going
where he is sent, even if inimicalt,
prompts his assignment, which is no
at all clear. The Records criticism o
the head of the navy department shoul
be aimed at his favoritism and urjus
discrimination in the case of an Office
of Captain Clark's great merit, his yer
arduous devotion to perilous and III
usual duty, and most brilliant servic
in battle. There's the rub.
