EX-Att0rney General Stricken
With ApopleXy.
HAD A NOTABLE CAREER
Was a Member of the Senate Before
TAX ng a Place in President
C!eveland's Cabinet.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Former Attorney
General Augustus H. Garland was strick-
en- with apoplexy while addressing the
United States supreme court at 1915
O'Clock this afternoon and died within 10
minutes. Mr.. Garland spoke calmly and
with no evidences of agitation or effort.
He had read from a law volume and had
followed with the sentence: This, your
honors, is our contention" AS the last
word was uttered, Mr.. Garland tottcred
and fell heavily to the floor. Senator
Gallinser, who is a physician, was near
at hand. A single glance told him that
the attack would be fatal. Within 10 min.
utes from the time of the stroke Mr.. Gar
land breathed his last. The court mean
time. had postponed the case in which
Mr.. Garland was interested and had pro-
cecded with other business. Word of the
tragedy was soon noised through the
capitol and senators and representatives
hurried to the court room. The two Ar
kansas senators, Messrs. Berry and Jones,
were among the first to view the body,
and following them was a long line of
persons, high in Legislative and legal cir

Garland at various times in his long and
notable public service.
Augustus H. Garland was born in Tip
ton county, Tennessee, June II, 1892. Be
fore he Vas a year old his parents re-
moved to Arkansas. He was educated at
st. Mary's college, Lebanon, Ky. He read
law there and in Arkansas and was ad-
mitted to the bar in 1858. After practic-
Q inc of thnt r1oan fnr, th,aA wa, VIC he w
moved to Little Rock. He was a Wing in
! politics and in 1860 was an ~electOr on the
Bell and Everett ticket. He was an OPP
ponent of the secession ordinance in the
state convention, but after it's passage he
espoused the southern cause and was a
member of the provisional congress that
met in Montgomery in May, 1861. He was
chosen a delegate 10 the first Confederate
Ongress and afterWard served in the G n
ate, in which he held a seat when the
Confederacy fell. In 1860 he petitioned tho
United States supreme court for the right
to practice without taking the 'ironclad'
oath, presenting an argument on which
the question was decided in his faVor He
was elected United States senator for
the term beginning March 4, 1861, but was
not permitted to take his seat. In 1874,
after serving a short time as acting sec
rotary of state, he was elected governor
of Arkansas under the new state CON
stitutiOn. In January, 1876, he was sent
to the United States senate and was re-
elected in 1883, serving from March ., 1877
to March, 1885, when he took his seat as
attorney general in President Cleveland.
bin He was offered and declined {
supreme court justiceship. At the close
of the Cleveland administration he retired
from politics and practiced law in thi:
city, appearing chiefly before the United
States supreme court.

WINE BATHS.

Take a wine bath. Such is the gist of
a circular which has just been issued in
one of the French departments. A So
journ Of twenty minutes in a tub into
which 100 litres of Malvoisie have been
poured is described as the most invigor-
ating process that can be imagined, it be-
ing added that the operation can be re-
peated with the same wine 100 times.
You empty the whole hectoliter On each
occasion into the bath, and when you have
had your dip o put the wine back into
the cask." So the same Malvoisie does
duty over and over again, a fact which az
least ought to weigh with persons who
are not of an e~xtravagant turn Of mind.
But this is not ell. The wine is not lost
wen now. It can be drunk. For con-
cludes the circular, latter the 100 baths

San Francisco, Jan. Filth Chronicle
Preparations are said to be afoot
for the transfer to a big trans-continental
railway company of the San Francisco &
North Pacific railway, which runs from
Jkiah southwark to Point Tiburon and
thence has ferry connections across the
bay to San Francisco. The prospective
purchasers are believed to be either the

contemplated extension to this coast, or
the Southern Pacific, that it may shut OIL
the prospective rival from one of the best
remaining bay terminal points for a rail-
way.
