neither took effect.

shots were fred by an assassin or by

throughout the kingdom because of
of his cruel treatment to his daugh-

Portland, Dec. 14.-Not gamb-
ling device operated in public in
the city yesterday afternoon. Chief
of Police McLauchlan stationed a
police officer at each of the six
principal gambling houses of the
city. with strict orders that no play
be allowed. This means that Port
land is to be a closed town in
fact and that no games will be run
behind closed doors.
Not a gambler was able to persue
his fayorite vocation, unless he re-
tired to some private poker-room
Tired of hearing his force abused
because it did not stop the gambling
and tired of trying to convict gamb-
lers before a jury, the Chief of Police
has adopted measures which will,
for time at least stop all public
gambling. Instead of the crowd of
eager gamesters, gathered about
faro or roulette table wagering their
worth upon turn of the cards or
the tickle bounding of the roulette
ball, a solitary policeman comfor-
tably seated in the middle of the
room keeping guard lest the city
ordinance should be broken, was
the sight that greeted the eye yes
terday upon entering any Of the
large gambling houses.
Chief of Police McLauchlan was
quoted Friday as saying that he
did not wish to talk but to act. The
gamblers are now all willing to
agree that he has acted and in
very different way than they
thought he would. For once the
cunning evaders of the law seemed
to be completely bafled and are
frank to admit that if the chief
keeps up his present policy that
they will have to go out of the
gambling business altogether.

Washington, Dec. 13.-Mrs

dangerously i'll at her home in this
city. She has been suffering with
severe attack of bronchitis for some
time, and now valvular disease of
the heart, with kidney complica-
tions, has developed and the gravest
apprehension as to the outcome are
felt.
A sudden change for the worse in
her condition occurred late last
night, and she grew worse today.
Drs Gardner Mcdonald and Bishop
have been in consultation during
the afternoon, and DE- Bishop re.
mained at the house throughout
the night.
kilograms have beea sent to Mrs
Grants sons, General Frederick D
Grant. Commander of the depart
ment at Texas; Ulysses S Grant Jr.
and Jesse Grant both of whom are
in San Diego, Cal, notifying them
to come at once to Washington.
Mrs Sartoris, her daughter is at
Mrs Grants bedside.
After the physicians made their
call, shortly after 11o'clock tonight,
it was stated that Mrs Grant was
little better than she was early in
| the day. 1t was stated that
she would not survive the night.
She is in very feeble condition and
the severe drain that the bronchi-
tbs has made upon her system
precipitated an old trouble with the
heart.
Mrs Grant spent last summer at
Coburgh, Canada, bnt her condition
at that time was far from good.
She was taken quite i'll in October,
and, on the advice of her physicians
there was hurriedly brought to
| Washington on special car, arriy-
ing here on the 18th of that month
She has been confined to her bed
most of the time since then, al
though on several occasions she has
succeeded in walking about the
house, and has been out of doors
once or twice. Mrs Grant is about
Is years old.
Washington, Dec. 14.-Mrs
Ulysses S Grant died at her resi-
dence in this city at 11:17 o'clock

failure, Mrs Grant having suffered
for years from valvular disease of

a severe attack of bronchitis. Her

road In front of the running horse, he
cried loudly for them to turn out OF the

running horse, instead of keeping the
road, followed them, and striking the
team in the rear, went up on the wagon
between the body and one wheel, and fell
over on his side. A young man who hap
pened to be near, Immediately took the
horse by the head and held it down till
the children started out of the way. 1t Is

pened except some injury to the carriages.

A searcher after curious facts has
learned that athletic women are by no
means a modern product, as is generally
believed They aourished in the days of
sal volatile. hoops. patches and snuff, in
the days when George ii. was king. La
dies of the court took part in races ar
ranged for them at the regular meet
ings, so that there were lady jockeys
as well as gentlemen jockeys, and once a
series of foot races for ladies in Hyde
park was organized. The first one was
run amid great enthusiasm of the popu-
lace. and the betting was high. Thea
stepped in some cross grained old fellow
who persuaded the government that such
races were unseemly. and they came to a
sudden end. much to the regret of the
people of London.
