EX-PRESIDENT
HARRISON DEAD.


Harrison died at 4:45 o'clock this after
noon. Surrounding his bed at the time
of death were Mrs. Harrison, wife of
the ex.President; Mrs. Eaton, of Gin
cinnati, and Mrs. Morris, of Minneapo-
lis, sisters of the General; the physi-
clans, DR.. Henry Jamison and DIR. F.
0. Dorsey; w. H. H. Miller, ex-Attorney
General; E. T. Tibbett, the Generals
private secretary, and the nurse.
Neither Mrs. Mary Harrison Mckee
nor Russell B. Harrison, daughter and
son of General Harrison, were present
I when the end came. Both are on the
way to this city and they are expected
to arrive tonight.
General Harrison did not regain con-
seriousness before the end. He has
been in a semi-conscious condition
| since early yesterday morning and at
no time was he able to recognize any
of the anxious household who were at
his side during the long last hours. 1t
had been hoped that at the last he
would be able to recognize the mem
bers Of his family even ifhe should not
be able to speak.
After the death bulletin was posted
expressions of personal grief were to
be heard on all sides.
Immediately upon the receipt of the
news of General Harrison's death,
Governor Durbin ordered the flag on
the State House to be put at half mast
and similar tokens of regard for the
distinguished dead were shown at the
Federal building and numerous private
buildings. To the sorrowing family
the death did not come as a shock for
they have realized that the result was
inevitable, and that it had only been
question of hours and minutes since
early this morning. DR.. Jamison had
informed the family this morning that
the end might be expected at any mo-
ment.
Exit Star Course-SeasOn Iooo-IooI.
The closing entertainment of the
Peoples Course, at the Court House,
last Saturday night, was a fitting eli
max to the series of five fine attractions
presented to our people during the past
season.
Elias Day was delightful-his several
character sketches being given with
rare dramatic skill. With or without
makeup he was equally effective, thus
dispelling the popular impression that
the main dependence of the imperson.
ator's art is upon his accessories In
the roll of story teller he scored a
distinct success. He was both genu-
inely pathetic and irresistibly funny,
and in fact in all that he essayed his
absolute mastery of his business could
not be gainsaid. The audience which
was a large and representative one
generously applauded all his efforts.
Miss Grace Walker, accompanied by
Mrs. Beers, played very beautifully a
violin solo and was enthusiastically re-
called The we'll known abilities of
Miss Walker are a matter of pride to
her many friends who predict for her
a bright future.
Rev. o. s. Metzler rendered the
thanks of the management to the pa
irons of the Star Course for their gen.
erous cooperation, and made the
statement that a continuation of their
support would insure a Course next
season.

A Little Girl Shot by Her Brother.

A terrible tragedy occurred at Ea-
giles Mere, Wednesday morning by
which little daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Bert Rider, lost her life.
Mr.. Rider had been on hunting
trip the previous day, and on return
ing home left his gun stunding in
the corner of the kitchen. While
Mrs. Rider was temporarily absent,
Wednesday morning, she heard the
report of gun at the house, and on
reaching the doorway fearful sight
met her gaze. Her little girl was
lying lifeless with the top of her
head blown off. Her little brother,
who is about eight years of age,
told his mother that his sister had
the gun at the time it was discharg-
ed, but he had replaced it in the
corner before the mother arrived at
the scene. The two children were
alone in the house at the time the
accident occurred. The unfortunate
child was about two years and five
months of age.

, the
e precept
.etter than his

1T uao not the tax payers
..e was thinking of when he circu-
lated the petition to contest the elec-
ton of Judge Dunham.
Judge Sittser said, at the time, he
did not favor the contest, but per-
mitted Scouten and one or two at
torneys in Wyoming county to urge
him into it. The result was that
Judge Dunham was shown to have
been elected by a much larger ma
jority than was officially reported.
Another result was that the tax
payers of the district had to pay
eleven thousand one hundred and
forty-four dollars and ninety-six
cents ($11, ,144.96) for that informa-
ton. The share of Sullivan county
was three thousand eight hundred
and forty mine dollars and fifty-siX
cents. When Scouten restores to
the tax payers of Sullivan county
this $3,S49.56 which he ought to do,
they will think more of him.
1t is not forgotten that only three
years ago he did all he could to in
cite his present candidate for associ-
ate judge to contest the election for
sheriff. The petition was prepared
in Scouten's office, and circulated,
and if we are correctly informed,
only failed through some legal blum
der. If ScOuten and his subservient
candidate for sheriff had accomplish
ed their purpose, the Sullivan county
tax payers would have shouldered
another bill for three or four thous-
and dollars. The tax payers of Sui
livan county will do well to make
the majority for Reeser SO large that
these restless schemers will be
silenced.
Scouten's Herald inquiries, "Why
don't the little Sullivan county gang
who are accused of causing the bill
to annihilate associate judges to be
introduced into the legislature last
spring come out like men and either
confess or deny it ?''
The only man we ever knew who
tried to annihilate associate judges
was Scouten himself. He tried it with
Associate Judges Kraus and Line
without much success. Perhaps he
is the very man who caused that
terrible bill to be introduced last
winter.
Who he means by the "gang"
we don't know. We do know that
no fair minded man will call reputa-
BILE citizens "gang." 1t is a word
Scouten learned from that Philadel-
phia newspaper which encouraged
Emma Goldman in her anarchistic
teachings, which led to the assas-
ination of Mckinley. 1t fits his
mouth well.
We also know that neither John
D. Reeser, nor the convention which
gave him his unanimous nomination
ever had anything to do with the
bill referred to.
