'Even the best judges Of tobacco

Washington Star. Sometimes their
taste goes back on them, so to speak,
and remains blunted for week at a
stretch. One of my customers. for in
stance, is well-to-do merchant. who
is very particular about his cigars,
ani one Of the few real connoisseurs
in town. When he is in good form
he can tell more about tobacco on a
superficial examination than any

high-class cigars. ! knew the goods
were all right, and advised him to buy
something else for awhile. Hefnally
began smoking pipe, and used
cheap cut plug that he declared was
the best smoke he ever tried. One
day, all of sudden, his taste returned
and he went back to the cigars. AT

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
President ShafYer Believed to be In
New York Arranging q
Settlement.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 13.-The abb
sence of President Shaffer from Anal
gamated headquarters was noted this
morning, and when the day passed
and he did not appear, the report that
he was in New York was received
from several good sources. Officers
of the organization declined to dis
cuss the strike in any form, and said
that they did not know where Mr..
Shaffer was.
1t was learned tonight that Pres
ident Shaffer, with several of his adj
visers, took the 10 p. m. train for
New York, presumably under an ar
rangement with the steel people to
settle the strike. 1t can not be said
positively that this is the case, but all
signs point to this.
Reports early in the day were that
a settlement was looked for by the
Amalgamated men. This belief was
strengthened by the current issue of
the Amalgamated Journal, which told
of President Skaters renewed eff
forts for new negotiations. His pres
ent trip to New York is believed to
be the consummation of these efforts.
Until the result is known no develop
ments are expected in the strike situ-

Milburn House, Buffalo, N. Y, Sept.
14.-President Mckinley died at 2:15
a. m, eastern time. He had been un-
conscious since 1850 p. m. His last
conscious hour on earth was spent
with his wife, to whom he devoted a
lifetime of care. He died unattended
by minister of the gospel, but his
last words were an humble submission
to the will of the God in whom he
believed. He was reconciled to the
cruel fate to which an assassin's bull
let had condemned him, and faced
death in the same spirit of calmness
and poise which had marked his long
and honorable career. His last con-
scious words reduced to writing by
DR.. Mann, who stood at his bedside
when they were uttered, were as fol-
lows:
"Good-by. All good-by. It's Gods
way. His will be DONE"

his official family at the Milburn

Big Forgery of Railroad Tickets.

As a result of the arrest, on August Is, of
ticket brokers' concern at St. Louis,
charged with swindling customer, ggan-
tic railroad ticket eounterfeiting scheme
was uncovered. After the arrest of the
brokers their office was ransacked and an
immense number of tickets and passes found.
1t was almost impossible to place an esti-
mate on the value of the tickets recovered,
but it is stated by railroad authorities that
SO, 900 would be a conservative figure. 1t is
believed that many of the tickets and passes
were forged.
At Buffalo a number of ticket scalpers
have already been lodged in Jail on account
of fraudulent manipulation and forgery of
railroad tickets. These instances are so
numerous the public should take pains to
see that their tickets are purchased only
at the authorized offices Of transportation
lines. This avoids all complication and
trouble to the passenger and assures him
that the railroad tickets purchased are

Three Negroes Lynched.

Ernest Harrison, Frank Reed and
Jefferson Rollins, three negroes, who
murdered Wash Thomas, an old col
ored man, at wickliffe, KY, were
taken out of the Ballard county Jail
and strung up by mob of colored
men. Thomas, the murdered man,
was returning from work at tobac-
co warehouse, when the trio waylaid
him, to rob him of his wages. One of
them struck him over the head with
club, killing him. Then they robbed
him and fled. They were arrested
and placed in Jail. Friends of Thorn
as quietly organized and proceeded to
the jail. The jailer was aroused and
when he opened the door the crowd
rushed in. He was quickly induced
to give up the keys, and then the
men were taken out dragged to a
mill on the outskirts of town, and,
after they were given the opportuni-
ty of confessing their crime, they
were strung up. The bodies hung
there all night long, and were cut
down by the county authorities and
given burial.

LONDON DEEPLY MOVED,
President's Fight for Life
Watched With Intense Anxiety

London, Sept. II, a. m.-President
McKinley's fight for life has been
watched from the outside in Great
Britain with an intense anxiety that
has rivaled the last days of Queen
Victoria. Every phase of the medi-
cal attendance has been keenly dis
cussed, and the painful suddenness of
the collapse after the revival of hope
deeply stirred the nation. This spon-
taneous participation in the anxiety
of the American people at the bed
side of the dying president has been
discussed in editorials in all the morn
ing papers, which, at $3.50, were still
holding the presses for the last sad
news.
Horror at the foul deed that laid
him low" says the Daily Chronicle,
''is to a great extent the cause of the
widespread sympathy. But much is
also due to the respect entertained
for the presidents personality"

litical friends took leave of him. This
painful ceremony was simple. His
friends came to the door of the sick
room, took longing glance at him.
and turned tearfully away. He was
practically unconscious during this
time. But the powerful heart stimu-

ployed to restore him to conscious

wife. He asked for her, and she sat
at his side and held his hand. He
consoled her and babe her good-by.
She went through the heart-trying
scene with the same bravery and
fortitude with which she has borne
the grief of the tragedy which ended
his life.
The immediate cause of the presi-
