Frankfort KY, Feb. 3.-The bullet
fired by the unknown assassin last Tues

only persons present at the death bed

DIR. Mccormack. Justus Goeibe, anoth-
er brother who has been hurrying from

him in a vain hope of reaching his dying
brother in time for some token of recog-
milton arrived forty minutes too late
Oxygen was frequently administered the
dying man during the afternoon in an
effort to keep him alive until his brothers
arrival. burt in vain. BY the cruel irony
of fate the train on which Justus Goebel
was travelling to Frankfort was delayed
several hours from various causes and
when Mr.. Goebel finally reached here

citizens of Frankfort that Mr.. Goebel S
last resting place be in the cemetery here,
where lie buried Daniel Boone and Vice

legal advisors with whom he wished to
confer. Later. at Mr.. Goebel's request,

sent for and the two had a short conver-
sation: Lew " said Mr.. Goebel, Il
wish to announce to the world that /
do not hold myself in open violence to
Ehe word of God"
GOEBEB TOLD HE MUST DIE.
The hypodermic injections afforded
some temporary relief, but the sufferer
for the first time in his long weary
struggle for life had apparently lost his
indomitable courage.
Doctor said he feebly TO DR.. Nc
Cormack who stood at his bedside, i
am afraid now that I'm not going to get
over this"
DIR. Mccormack endeavored to cheer
The fast failiRg man, but the latter soon
relapesed into a condition of semi-con-
seriousness. About l O'clock he aroused
himself again. and calling DR.. McCor-
mack to his bedside said: Doctor, am
/ going to get well? / want to know the
truth for have.several things to attend
to-
.NIr. Goebel, you have but few hours
TO live" replied DR.. Mccormack.
Mr.. Goebel was silent for a moment
then calling his brother Arthur Goebel
to his bedside. asked that the physicians
and nurses retire. Then for twenty
minutes the dying man was left with his
brother and sister, Mrs. Braunacker.

watchers at the bedside it was appar-
ent that the end was not far off and
