cent years Mr.. Donnelly has spent
much OF his time in Minneapolis, where
he edited the Representative. Although
his home Is at Nininger. he divided
his time between his country place and
the city. He went to Minneapolis yes
terday morning with his wife and was
visiting his wife's parents.
Apparently In Good Health.
During the afternoon, Mr.. Donnelly
was at his Office in, the Boston. block
engaged In writing for his publication.
He left the office at 4:30 and was APP
parently in the best Of health. He
ate dinner with his wife and her pa
rents at o'clock and then complained
Of feeling sick. He retired and soon
afterward was apparently much worse.
DR.. Murphy was summoned at 8
o'clock. He found his patient uncon-.
scious. Advancing age had weakened
the sick mans constitution and it was
apparent that his recovery was hope
less; that medical science was Of no
avail. Without recovering conscious
ness he died three hours later.
Mr.. Donnelly was born In Philadel-
phia In 1881. He graduated from the
high school In that city and at the
completion Of a three year course In
law was admitted to the bar. Two
years later he married. He
Came to ST. Paul
IN 1856 and divided his time between
farming and literary pursuits. Mr..
Donnelly had the honor Of being the
first lieutenant governor elected In the
state BY the Republican party. He
was chosen to that position in 1859,
and at the expira ton Of his term was
reelected. The following year, III
1851, he was elected to congress, and
twice succeeded himself. When he
ran for the Office a fourth time a COM
bination was made against him and he
was defeated. s5 KS nv ea
A. Mr. Donnelly continued from that
time to be an important and unique
figure in politics. After his defeat for
congress in 1865 he twice refused a
nomination, but in 1870 he ran inde-
pendently and. lost by a narrow mar
gin. He stumped the state, together
with Wisconsin. Illinois and Michigan.
in the interests of Greeley In 1872, and
the following year was
Chosen state senator
from Dakota county.
Later he was nominated for congress
by the Anti-M onopolists and Demo-
Gratis. but was defeated by Washburn.
In 1854 he again ran for congress and
was this time defeated by Maj. Strait.
AS man Mr.. Donnelly was very
social in his nature. bubbling over
with good humor ana anecdote and an
excellent conyersationalist, AS a
speaker he was regarded as one Of the
best on account of his fumor and con-
clusiveness, and in his writings he had
an original way Of arraying his facts
and hewing his way to conclusiveness.
1t was in the literary field, however.
that he achieved a national reputation.
His published works are: Atlantis"
"Ragnarok, the Age of Fire and
Gravel, Caesars Column and "The;
Great Cryptogram,' which latter at.
ternpts to prove that Bacon was the
author of Shakespeare's plays. Mr..
Donnelly married for the second time
on Feb. %, 1897. his bride being Miss
Hanson.

Prof. o. r. Cook OF Washington re-
ports the surprising discovery OF CAM
phor as an animal secretion. The AMI
NAL concerned Is a myriapod, resemb-
ling worm. or small slug, and scien-
tifically known as Polyzonium rosai-
bum. 1t lives In the humus Of moist,
iindisturbed forests When handled Il
gives off a very distinct odor Of cam
phor, and elects q milky fluid which
possesses the smell, flavor and taste
OF ordinary camphor. Prof. Cook
thinks the camphor Is secreted instead
of the prussic or hydrocyanic acid
found in other myriapods as q means
Of defense.

If the mosquito has any friends
among mankind, they may rejoice IN
the assurance given by DIR. u. O. How
ard OF the Department Of Agriculture,
that this cosmopolitan pest does not
necessarily perish with the oncoming
Of winter. On the contrary, fnosqui-
toes have been observed in the latitude
OF Washington to hibernate, adult
specimens living from November until
the succeeding April or May with all
their powers of torment unimpaired,
although their activity is suspended
In winter. The mosquito needs but
little food, and It is the female that
thirsts for blood, the males cols nting
themselves with water and vegetable
fluids. Doctor Howard ascribes the
fact that mosquitoes are often found
upon dry prairies, many miles from
water, to the longevity of the adults
OF certain species, which enables them
to survive seasons OF drought. Rail-
roads have been responsible for the
transportation of mosquitoes into re-
gions where they were previously rare.
Their power Of flight is not great, and
It is believed that they are not dis
tributed far through the agency of
winds.
