LIST oF FRENCH HEROES.

Colonel Charles Chaille-Long, of Bal
tlmore, who is known as an African ex-
plorer and who was connected with the
special commission from this country
to the recent Paris exposition, returned
home on the French liner La Bretagne.
After spending several days with
friends in Philadelphia he will go on to
Baltimore.
Colonel Chaille-Long has been abroad
since 1897, and during the last year. un-
der an appointment from General Hor-
ace Porter, American ambassador to
France, he has been overhauling the
musty records of the war and navy de-
partments os that country for the pur-
pose of preparing lists of the officers,
soldiers and sailors of that nation who
fought for the independence of the
American colonies. The names of over
10000 of the French heroes for freedom
have been listed, and the French gov
ernment has promised to publish them
In book form, with all the data regard
ing the battles in which the sea and
land forces took part in the American
revolution.
General Porter is the president Of the
Society of the Sons Of the American
Revolution in France. Colonel Chaille-
Long was made register to a commits
sion, composed of Henri Merou, French
consul at Chicago; Mr.. Mclean, depu-
ty United States consul general at Par
is, and Major Huntington, u. S. A.,
which had the work in charge. The
French war and navy departments, be-
ing deeply interested in the search, ap-
pointed soldiers and ships writer's to
assist Colonel Chaille-Long and his as
sociates in the search of the old rec
ords. The work took more than year.
Colonel Chaille-Long says that there
is a feeling of reserve on the part Of the
people of France because of the idea
that Americans are forgetting the help
which France gave to Washington in
the war for fredeom, but that it is to
be hoped the friendship between the
peoples of both countries will be re-en-
livened when the extent Of the help
which France gave to the early patriots
becomes known by the publication of
the records just copied by the commits
sion.

ALMOST A MURDER.
Mrs. w. Schultz, of erinne,,, slashed
With Razor in the Hands Of Felix
Withers-Artery Severed and She
May Die.

Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell. Dec. 2.--Sunday afternoon
Mrs. w. Schultz was slashed two times
with razor welded by Felix Withers
while attempting to save her infant
child In desperate struggle between
her husband. w. Schultz and her
brother. Charles Vogel with Felix
Withers. Schultz, vogel and Felix and
Henry Withers went on q hunting trip
after indulging in whisky. The party
returned to Schultz's home in the after
noon and got into a dispute as to who
was the best marksman. The dispute
engendered considerable bad feeling.
Felix Withers grew abusive and began
20 tise obscene language. Mrs. Schultz
was present and he was commanded to
desist. Withers then drew a knife and
SD he would settle the matter right
thGre. His brother Henry persuaded
him to put up the knife and go home.
Felix, however. returned and placing
his back against the door recommended
his abuse. Schultz and Vogel were in
the room with Mrs. Schultz and baby
Schultz approached Withers and
knocked him down. He and Vogel held
him down until he promised to put up
his razor and go home. This Withers
agreed to do, but as soon as he arose
whipped out his razor and slashed at
Schultz. A terrific struggle ensued and
in her effort to rescue the child from
the danger Mrs. Schultz was cut twice
in the hip. The temporal artery was
severed and before a physician could
be called the woman had bled almost
to death. She is considered out of dam
ger. If blood poison does not set in.
The house after the struggle pre-
sented dreadful scene of carnage.
Blood was splashed on the walls and
covered the floor. The furniture and
dishes were broken and the baby COW
cred with gore.
Withers was arrested. Schultz has
charge of an Improvement gang on the
Rack Island and has forty men under
him. He and his wife bore good rep
utation. At the preliminary hearing
Withers waived examination and was
bound over to the grand jury in $1,000
bonds. The charge is attempted mur.

MRS. M'kINLETs LIFE VOID.
Nothing Seems to Arouss Her From
Her Grief.

Canton, o., Dec. 2.-The period Of Mrs.
McKinley's mourning is also the period
of her melancholy. 1t becomes daily
more and more apparent that all her
ambition and her hope lie buried with
her lamented husband in West Lawn
cemetery. The cruel bullet of the assas-
sin has entered her heart even more GER
tainly than it did the body of the strick-
en- chief of the nation.
To Mrs. Mckinley life is now but a
void. She expressed to Dr. Manchester,
the pastor and loving friend of the Nc
Kinley's, shortly after the martyred
presidents funeral, a desire to die and
join her husband. This desire is still
present. She talks but little to her
friends, but sits at home and spends
much time in weeping, as she thinks of
him who was for many years her stay
and comforter.
Mrs. Mckinley is constantly attended
by her sister, Mrs. NJ. c. Barber, who
has given up her usual home duties anI
devotes all her time and energy to maxi
ing life as pleasant as possible for the
stricken one. The world but little knows
with what love and sacrifice this atten-
tion is given by Mrs. Barber.
The day after the president was laid
In the vault in West Lawn cemetery
Mrs Mckinley was driven to the tomb,
was allowed to enter and to remain for a
short time beside the casket containing
her beloved dead. This visit was re-
peated daily. In order to make the stay
as comfortable as possible for her, a
rocking chair was placed in the vault
beside the casket and a rug was spread
ever the floor to prevent dampness from
causing Mrs. Mckinley any ill effects.
Friends have at last prevailed upon her
not to enter the vault. and her daily vis-
its now are to the tomb and to the fam
lily lot, where rest the ashes of her chill
dren.
Callers on Mrs. Mckinley are but few,
as she is so despondent that even her
most intimate friends have failed to
bring back any degree of cheer to her.
Her pleasures. If she has any. are in the
past, and mayhap in thinking OF the fu-
ture when her spirit shall commune
with that of her husband. To her life,
indeed, is but an empty dream. How
long she will survive, of course, no one
knows, but Cantonians who know her
and her surroundings best can not but
think that the sootfsayer who said she
would not live more than year after
her husbands death was probably right.

with which they might hurt themselves.
the Iowa guardsmen prefer the new
magazine rifles, and IL Gen. Byers has
his way they will get them. 1t has been
known for some time that Byers would
ask for an appropriation for a perma-
nent camp ground and for new arsen-
al The state owns property on which
an arsenal might be built. Permanent
camp grounds would be rather expen-
sive at first, but in the end would be
profitable. On the whole the showing
is an excellent one for the guard for the
past two years
1t is understood that Adj. Gen. Byers
will press his claim to continuance In
the position very hard. In fact, in the
opinion Of many competent judges Of
political movements. he stands excellent
chance of being adjutant general for
several years. He has his record back
of him; besides which he has the hearty
endorsement and recommendation of
many OF the most prominent members
of the guard and prominent republicans
of the state whose standing in the party
can not be questioned. His Endorsements
are about the strongest OF any person
who Is seeking appointment at the
hands of Mr.. Cummins. His chief COM
petitor at present is Capt. Thrift, of
Dubuque. 1t is stated that the papers
he will file with Mr.. Cummins this week
will make fine showing for his candi-
dacy He is known as strict disciple
marian in his company; but he has sue
ceeded in inspiring all who have any
thing to do with the company with
great enthusiasm, and his friends say
that he would impart this enthusiasm to
the entire guard Capt. CAN'T. of Sioux
City, is candidate and will press his
claims hard, but what strength he has
with the guard or the leading politicians
of northwest Iowa has not yet been de-
veloped. 1t has been said that if Major
Rule should consent to be candidate
he would stand good show of selection.
Col Prime of this city is considered en-
tirely out of the question. as his selec-
tion would revive old controversies bet
ter left alone. The choice at present lies
between Byers and Thrift.

kee insane hospital, is making his Sc
