Cleveland Sept 1S.--it is feared by
Cleveland friends of Senator Hanna
that the condition Of his health may
prevent him from continuing the hard

The REPUBLICAN accepts S. ID.
Henkel's apology that he did not
foul any Of the bicycle riders in the
ten mile road race on Saturday last.
We had no intention to cast any
odium on Henkel or any fair rider,
but there are several bicycle riders
who make a practice OF touling their
opponents, so as to render them i'll
capable of finishing the race. We
know personally OF several such
accidents, as they were termed,
where bicycle riders were dellber-
ately run into and received injuries
which rendered them unfit to per-
form any work. Last month one
young man riding in bicycle race
at the Rivervew grounds, was de-
liberately pocketed by another rider
thrown and rendered unconscious
for some twenty minutes. 1t was a
lucky accident, otherwise the fall
might have resulted in the cripplng
or death OF the young man, An
other malicious accident happen
ed on the Concord turnpike on Sat-
urday week, in walsh five boys re-
ceived severe injuries. We think
this foul riding should be stopped
and those who make a practice of
fouling other riders be disqualified
from riding in the future in any Of
the aces. The practice is danger
Gus and should be frowned down,
otherwise young men who think
anything of themselves. will not
participate in any of the sports i'll

DEATH is no respecter Of persons,
II takes the rich as we'll as the poor
and in the next world they are all
on the same level, as far as dollars
and cents are concerned. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, head of the Vanderbilt
family, died at his residencein New
port early yesterday morning, aged
S. years. He was stricken with
paralysis two years ago, and, al
though receiving the bestof medical
attention, he grew gradually worse
and while partially able to sttend
to business, he has not been active
ly engaged since his illness. He was
multi-millionaire and leaves a
widow and four children to mourn
his sudden death. He inherited a
fortune OF sos. 900, 900 from the es-
tate Of his father in 1885, and leaves
an estate valued at 1920, 900, 600.
Cornelius was born on his fathers
farm at New Dorp, Staten Island,
on November n, lS43, and therefore
he was not quite tifty-s,x. He
was the pride Of his grandfather,
whose name he bore, and who left
him several million dollars outright
at his death. In 1870, he married
Miss Alice Gwynne, the daughter
of prominent Cincinnati lawyer.
With his wife and family he lead a
very domestic life, being member
Of no club or of any organization
which would tempt him away from
his home and hreslde.

JOHN D. HAWKINS, not to be out

material he had dumped in the

Dover. The five workmen who were
arrested for ploughlng up the streets
of Dover, were released by Mr..
Hawkins seeing that their fines were

school children TO cat their lunch
during the dinner hour, in the
school house. Some place should
have been provided before this lor
those children who live so far away
from the school that it would be Il
hardship to compel them to walk to
their homes and back again during
the noon hour. The half hour given
the students at the High School does
not appear long enough for them to
eat their dinner in any kind OF way,
especially if they are compelled TO
90 a dozen squares for their dinner
The ma jority of the scholars buy
or carry their lunch. which has a
tendency to ruin their health, as
too much pastry is not good. The

their children partakc OF their food.

THE FIRST BABY.
It's Coming is Looked Forward b
With Both Joy and Fear and itS
Safe Arrival is Hailed With
Pride and Delight by All.

The arrival of the first baby in the
household is the happiest and most inn
portant event of married life. The young
wife who is to become a mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon her
hresst and latterly she shall hear it lisp
the sweet and holy name, mother.
But her happy anticipation quickly van
ishes when she realizes the terrible PAIN
and suffering through which she must
pass while bringing the little one INTO
the world An Understandable rear OF Che
danger attendant upon the ordeal soon
dissipates her joyfulness.
Thousands of worlen nave learned
by experience that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferings which at
tend childbirth they know that by
the use of "Mother's Friend"-a sclen-
tifis linirlent--for few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
so prepare themselves for the fnaI
hour that the pain and suffering OF the
dreaded event are entirely ohviated and
it is safely passed through with COM
paratively little discomfort.
All women are interested, and es-
naciallv expectant mothers who for the
frst time have to undergo this trial, IN
such q remedy for they know the pain
and suffering, to say nothing OF the dan
GER which is in store for them. Moth
