FILLMORE FAMILY EXTINCT.
None of the Presidents Relatives

None of the Presidents Relatives
 Now Survive in Buffalo.
 The Fillmore family of Buffalo has passed out of existence, but the memory of some of it's members is among the most cherished possessions of the oldest citi- zens of the Queen City.
 The Presidents family was never large one and no direct descendants are left to bear the name. As far as known Willard Fillmore was the nrst or ms Iam- fly to settle in Buffalo. He was married to Miss Abigail Powers, daughter of Rev. Lemuel Powers and Abigail Newland at Moravia, Cayuga County, February b. 1S26.
 It was the love of MT. and Mrs. Fill more for books that brought about the establishment of library in the White House When MT. Fillmore entered upon the Presidency there was not even Bi- ble in the White House, let alone other books. Mrs. Fillmore urged the immedi- ate necessity of getting library. The President applied to Congress for an ap- proporiation, and fitted out as library the largest and most cheerful room in the second story.
 The couple had two children, Willard Powers Fillmore and Miss Mary Abigail Fillmore. The daughter was about IS years old when her parents entered the White House and, as her mother was i'll part of the time, the daughter. even at that age, took prominent part in enter taining her fathers guests.
 Scarcely a year after her mother had died the daughter followed her to the grave This double blow fell heavily up Dn the ex-Presdent.
 After the death of his daughter Mir Fillmore decided to leave his lonely home for a long contemplated trip abroad. He received many fiattering courtesies from Queen Victoria and her Cabinet Ministers.
 On February 10, 1858, after having been R widower for five years. Mir. Fillmore married Mrs Caroline c. Mcintosh of AL bany, N. Y. She. like himself. was rich.
 MT. Fillmore brought his bride to the Fillmore mansion. the one facing Niagara Square. He had bought that fine building especially for her It was elegantly fitted up and was as beautiful a mansion as ex- lsted in Buffalo in those days.
 There the former President spent the remainder of his days. After living a long. useful life, MT. Fillmore succumbed to stroke of apoplexy on March g. 1874 He was "A years old. The widow continued to occupy the mansion with the former Presidents son up to the time of her death in 1Ss1.

That prince of good fellows, Louis F. Gelbke, City Salesman of the Mont gomery Brewery, a man who counts his friends by the hundreds, and who every body knows to be a jolly all round good soul, has been a sufferer from kidney and bladder trouble, together with se- to the wonderful curative properties of Swamp Root, he is today we'll and happy man. MT. Gelbke's experience is quite interesting. but is best told in his reporter of The Advertiser: Something like two years ago I had a severe case of kidney and bladder trouble. together with very weak lame back The pain in the small of my back was so intense that could not endure the pain of standing in one position many minutes at time, and worse of all was com pelled to pass water frequently during the day and night. felt certain that my condition was critical-that I was on the verge of an attack of acute rheuma-

MT H. s. Crawford. who recently moved to Montgomery from Cincinnati, and who expects to make Montgomery his home, tells an interesting story about his complete restoration to health, after weeks of suffering from kidney and blsd- der trouble. from the use of Dr. Kilmer' s famous remedy, SwampRoot. A cure was effected in MT. Crawford's case by Swamp Root. after eminent physicians in Cincinnati and Montgomery had made dismal failures in their efforts to relieve him. Naturally, he is an enthusiast on the subject of the great remedy. and eX- presses his endorsement of it in most emphatic way.
 To a reporter of The Advertiser. MT. Crawford said:
 Two years ago I began to experience slight pains in my back. At that time l thought nothing special was the matter, but imagined I had strained myself while at work. I paid no particular attention to the trouble for weeks and, in conse- Quence, I grew alarmed. My physician

At an early hour this morning no less than one dozen candidates wandered home with summer-stricken collars and eyes of grim disappointment.
 Some of them wanted the whole cheese'-and caught a summer cold. 9th CTS wanted to be next "high-muck'' and they saw stars glimmer and faintly glide behind the horizon. The Aldermanic can didates-well, they reflected sadly as they though of the money 1t had cost.

 If could only have known" said an- other. And I was too confident well.
 "I'n get even next time," he said, chuckling in his throat.
 Two of them went as far as to quote from Shakespeare, and Pamfret in like lones:

Doctors diagnosed my case and convinced me that my weak condition was due to kidney and bladder trouble, which would bring on chronic rheuma- tism. All the while the lameness in my back increased rapidly, and had other symptoms which indicated early prostra- ton. Swamp-Root was recommended to me by my friend, MT. J. H.

An Election Burlesque.
Man wants but little her below. Nor wants that little long,"

If you had seen the busy candidates at the voting places in the different wards of Montgomery yesterday you would have had reason to doubt the sincerity of the poets words.
 "A Reporter stood on the steps of The Advertiser building fully thirty minutes and it was more than interesting to watch the numerous candidates at the Ward { booth.
 I saw an influential looking citizen com Ing up Dexter Avenue as unconcernedly as if there were no election-I saw two men with "sweaty brows" emerge from the throng, that two, followed by another two, that two followed by three. What are those fellows going down the street so fast for?" I queried mentally. The race grew faster and in a few sec onds the goal was reached. Several candi- dates came to a clash with the 'influen- tial citizen" and seven candidates thrust their fists (containing their cards) into the face of the innocent man.
 Holy Holy s, smokes" cried he. "am being

HIS END PEACEFUL.
4:o4 the Hour When Death
Came, y

Rome, July %. While the doctors
were examining their patient this
morning, believing him to be in = stup-
or, his holiness suddenly fixed his eyes
even now bright and by no means life

sThis time, doctors, YOU will not win

THE END.
The pope died shortly after 4o'clock
this afternoon. His last moments were
comparatively peaceful and painless
and were preceded by a period of In
sensibility. Around the bedside at
the final moment were the cardinals,
the relatives and the members of the
papal court. Before lapsing into un-
consciousness the dying pontiff feebly
moved his lips, his last, articulate
words being those used in bestowing a
benediction.
