Neuralgia of the Heart Caused Bob Nc

Neuralgia of the Heart Caused "Iob' Nc
Brides Sudden Death.
Mitchell, s. D.. Feb. 5.-There was no
suspicion that the death of Robert II
Mcbride, which occurred suddenly Fri
day afternoon, was the result of sui
eide and no inquest was held Dr.
Warne. McBride's physician, said the
cause of death was neuralgia of the
heart.
McBride's Career.
McBride's early days were spent in
Eldora, Ia. In 1862 he took an active
part in the organization of Company F,
Thirty-second Iowa volunteers and en-
listed. While encamped at Dubuque,
and before being sworn into service.
Mcbride got into trouble with the Of
f1cers and the captain struck his name
from the roll. He then went to Phila-
delphia, where he secured an assign
ment as war correspondent for For
ney's War Press. In this work he was
sensational and witty and acquired
considerable reputation by his brilliant
descriptive articles.
At the close of the war he returned
to Eldora and became pension claim
agent. In January, 1866, he was In
dfcted for forging a name to bounty
warrant and two indictments Were re-
turned against him for fraudulent
practices before the pension bureau
his appearance, but the papers Id the
three cases disappeared and were
never found. In 1870 Judge Porter sued
Mcbride for $4,000 libel. The strug-
gle WAS a bitter one and resulted in a
compromise.
In 1865 he was married to Miss zelna
/ Rice of Marshalltown. They lived to-
gether two years and in 1871 Mcbride
married Miss Dell Arnold of Iowa
Falls, who. after several years also se-
cured a divorce
In 1874 Mcbride again embraced mat
rimony, his third wife being Mrs. Nina
Lee Dcusman, widow of III. S. Dous-
man, of Prairie du Chen, Wis, and
daughter of General Joe Sturges He
met her at LAWYERS home in Mitchell.
The new Mrs. Mcbride was young and
charming and. possessed $2,000,0U0 In
her own right. After this marriage Nc
Bride, who had been largely existing
on the income from his democratic pa
per. the Mitchell Mail, left his office: in
charge OF his brother, John MCBRIDE
who has since died. and went to New
York city with his wife. They lived In
q fashionable part OF the city and for
three years they passed their winters
IN fnxurious New Y ork flats and their;
summers at seaside pleasure resorts.
Is dau y, was born TO them. Soon
after this event Mrs. Mcbride became
suspicious OF her husbands actions
with other women and employed a de-.
|Stect1ve. This led to a rupture IN their
martial relations and Mcbride came
back to Mitchell
Mcbride charged John -. Lawler;
and his wife with being behind Mrs

mately resulted In the destruction Of
his newspaper by an Indignant and
outraged community. *

NAMES OF MINERALS,
Chemical Nomenclature Suggested by
Pennsylvania Scientist.

Chemical Nomenclature Suggested by a
Pennsylvania Scientist.
At the last meeting of the Students
Mneralogical Club as the subject of
the evening, Dr. Henry Lehman spoke
upon the Relation of Mineralogy to
Chemistry" says the Philadelphia
Times In the course of his remarks
the speaker referred to the prevailing
confusion in meteorological names, due
to the many minerals differing but
slightly. The nomenclature adopted
by mineralogists he thought to be
totally inadequate, as it conveyed no
meaning of the minerals properties.
composition or external form. AS an
example, Wollastonite could be better
expressed by the chemical formula, Ca
81 O3, than by the name, since the
latter has only been adopted to perpet
uate the name of an individual. Many
like instances We're given. The speak
er exhibited several chemical COM
pounds which We're beautifully cryS-
tallized. and which have never before
been found as meteorological speci
mems. The chemist finds no difficulty
in giving them their true place in
chemical nomenclature, since the atom
ic theory standardiZeS the system.
The speaker was of the opinion that
the method of determination as en-
ployed by mineralogists-n namely, color,
hardness, cleavage, specific gravity,
wet and blow pipe tests, optical proper
ties and crystallographic form, may do
much to determine a mineral, but with
no degree of certainty. In the discus
sion that followed DR.. Lehman eX-
planned that the many forms of or1s
substance might be distinguished by
annexing the name of the system under
which the mineral crystallized. Mr..
Groth made brief report Of the YER
delite quarries at Easton, Pa, and an
nounced that In conjunction with
Messrs. 6 H. Hamilton and J. Bern
stein a more detailed account OF its
occurrence, including chemical analy-
sis, would be submitted.

AN INNOVATION.

The Louisville & Nashville r. R., to.
gether with it's connecting lines, has
inaugurated the Chicago & Florida
Limited. which is a daily, solid train,
wide vestibuled, steam heated, gas
lighted, with dining car service for all
meals en- route from Chicago to Thorn
asyille, Ca. Jacksonville and st. Au-
gustine. Fla. The train leaves Chicago
over the Chicago & Eastern Illinois
tracks at HOO a. H., running via Ev-
ansville, Nashville, Birmingham and
Montgomery, Plant System to Jack
sonville. and Florida East Coast to st.
Augustine, arriving at the latter city
at I:3O the next evening, making the
fastest time ever made between these
points. The train has annex sleeper,
leaving st. Louis at 2:15 D. M, which
also runs through. Mr. C. l.. Stone,
General Passenger Agent, Louisville &

answer all inquiries concerning this
train and furnish printed matter con-

GIFTS TO THE POPE.
His Holiness Receives Many Singular
Presents from the Faithful.


The Vatican has become a perfect
museum of objects, animate and mani
mate, as many of the faithful have de-
sired to give bis holiness a personal
gift, with in many cases strange re-
suits. For instance. peasant from
the Abruzzi the other day brought a
pair OF turtle doves In basket and was
highly incensed because he was not al
lowed to carry them into st. Peters
and present them personally. then and
there. to the head of the church. A
woman brought-that is, carried to the
station-a young and lusty pig. but was
obliged by her Mortified parish priest to
leave it behind. Alfredo Mancini, now
In Rome, has, however, made the pom
tiff a present which Is most interesting
and valuable. Not long ago he brought
with him from the Holy Land two
magnificent goats taken from Mount
Carmel. They are splendid beasts, dis
tinguished from their kind by their
black coats, unusually thick and soft,
and by their ears, which are large and
fall like those OF hunting hound. The
pope has inspected them personally in
their pasture in the Vatican gardens.
The other day as he stood looking at
them he said: How they bring back
to me the days OF my childhood, when
/ scrambled about the hills Of Carpi-
neto like the goats. going In many
places where only wild boy or a goat
could gain foothold." These goats are
as yet untried to the climate of Rome,
but as they are hardy animals It Is
hoped they will not suffer by the
change from Palestine.

PRISON FOR YOUTHS.
france Provides for the Care OF Rich


Under the innocent looking title, La
Maison Paternelle," there exists in
France what might be briefly desig-
mated as an authorized, aristocratic
prison for juvenile offenders, says Pear
sons Magazine. 1t was founded by a
legal luminary, VI. De Metz, a man
deeply interested in the training and
welfare of the young, with view to
checking the growing spirit of insu-
bordination to authority both az home
and at school, which had become spe
cially marked in the highest ranks OF
society in France. One Of the most
salutary elements in the scheme of this
institution is the absolute secrecy
which is maintained in France, both as
to the exact locality Of this house OF
correction and the names Of those who
are sent there. On an elevated, some
what bare, tract of country within a
few miles of Tours stands large
quadrangular building known as La
Colonie Agricole, which is a govern
ment establishment, and behind the
chapel. which is situated in the center
of the west front, La Maison Pternelle
is cunningly concealed. 1t is a rec
tangular. twO-storied building, adjoin-
ing the east end of the chapel, and the
first thing that meets the eye upon en-
tering is a huge board bearing the ON
nous word Silence" The ground floor
is occupied by prisOn-like cells and
Offices; the upper one contains rather
smaller cells and is surrounded by a
gallery, which shuts off all cOmmunl-
cation with the ground floor. When

pated his parents or guardians can OBJ

But this is a case in which to promise is one thing
