death and setting out in becoming

He also will order salutes to be fired
at the various army posts the day OF
the funeral and on ship board when
the news Is received.
The secretary Of war and the secre-
tary of the navy viii send out special
notices to soldiers and sailors convey
ing the presidents directions in this
matter.
Little more can be done officially, as
the act of March 3, 1888, specifically
forbids the draping Of public buildings
in mourning or the closing OF the exec
tive departments on the occasion or
the death of an ex-official. II is Gu
rious fact that two orders issued by
President Harrison himself probably
brought about the enactment OF this
law. January Is, 1898 the president
was obliged to issue an order announc-
ing the death of ex-President Hayes,
closing the departments on the
day of the funeral and ordering all
public buildings to be draped in mourn
ing. Almost before this period OF
Blaine died and another funeral proc
lamation issued from the White house.
The longscontinuation of the exhibi-
tion of mourning was too much for
congress. which promptly passed the
act above referred to, prohibiting
mourning display and the closing of
the departments on the occasion of the
death of an ex-oficial.
The late President Harrison was per-
sonally known to every member of the
cabinet and all it's members in the
city today spoke in praise of his mag
nificent intellectually and rugged
force of character.
A EULOGY FROM MR.. CLEVELAND
Princeton N. J., March 13.-Ex-Pres-
ident Grover Cleveland made the fol-
lowing statement on the death of
Former President Benjamin Harrison
mot one of our countrymen should
for a moment fail toerealize the SER
vices which have been performed in
their behalf by the distinguished dead.
In high public office he was guided by
patriotism and devotion to duty, often
at the sacrifice of temporary popular
ity, and in private station his influence
and example were always in the direc-
ton of decency and good citizenship.
Such a career and the incidents relat-
ed to it should leave a deep and use
full impression upon every section of

GENERAL HARRISON'S ESTATE.
Indianapolis, March 13.-General Har-
rison's wealth is variouSly estimated,
public opinion rating it as high as $780,
600. Those who are best informed
about the ex-president's affairs, how
ever, say he was worth about $3.50, 900
or $500, 900. At the time he was elected
president he was reputed to have accu-
mulated a fortune of $125,0O0 from his
law practice, and this has been dou-
hled at lea ST since that time. OF late his
practice, owing to his great reputation

The trial of George Washington Epps

district court yesterday afternoon.
Epps' offense was a murderous at.
tack On the woman made about two
months ago. In a fit of jealousy. he
struck at her with a knife. She threw
up her hand in time to ward of the
blow, but the knife went through her
arm. Epps fled to the hills and was
pursued. but made his escape. Two
weeks later he was arrested in Chey-
enne and brought back here.
Epps offered to plead guilty to the
charge of simple assault and take a
sentence of six months in jail, but
County Attorney Downey was hopeful
of sending the fellow to the peniten-
tiary and the trial vent on. The wo-
man testified indifferently against
Epps, but the two were a loving couple
