Friends of the old anti-slavery advocate say
that if he was insane in the later years OF his
life he always was mad. 1t a mad freak,
they said, which made up mis- mind to talk
against slavery to the Southern planters after

He never attempted a more dangerous thing,
however than editing 1.-The True American,
an abolitionist paper, in this city about sixty
years ago. This is the way he fortified himself
for it, according to his own account:

HIS IDEA OF CEREMONY.

DR.. Alfred Wallace. the octogenarian English
scientist who asserts that he can prove the
earth to be the centre of the universe, lived in
his youth in the Moluccas One of his neigh
bors in those remote islands was an old sailor.
and of this aged man Dr. Wallace sometimes
tells old story.
In a certain port the sailor had been once in
vited to a dance, He accepted the invitation,
and all through the evening he bounded in a
hearty and uncouth manner through dances of
every kind. But he wore no gloves, and hence.
the climate being tropical, his large, moist
hands left stains the white raiment of ths
women
One, a little vexed, thought she would taxi
him to task for this.
Don't you think, dancing much. you ought
to wear gloves?' she said.
"Oh, that's all right" he answered. "In wash
my hands when I'm through"

Lexington, KY, Aug b" Cash Clay is
dead, and now they all is fghtin' over his Wills
remarked a member Of one of the first families
to-day.
Course they all is fghtin' over Cash Clay's

man. What did you expect? Why, man, it
wouldn't be Cash Clay's will if there wasn't
a fight over it,"
So ii is that after death. even, the affairs Of
the sturdy car of Whitehall in turmoil.
1t is indeed consistent with the fire eating,
slashing, shooting life he led
There was no doubt of a will contest in his
case for six separate wills have been offered for
probate in the County Court of Madison County.
They name different benefciares from Dora
Clay Brock to the United States Of America.
The most interesting will that left in
possession of his divorced girl wife. 1t is writ
ten in his own hand and stamped with his pri-
vate seal in wax 1t contains this interesting
paragraph:

maintenance Of the park by setting aside my
coal mines in Clay County. KY, bought of Eli
Bowlin, near Manchester, about three hundred
acres" He desired that they be controlled into
q company and work to the end Of supporting
The park.
1t is doubtful if the United States ever gets
possession Of the park. His children assert that
he had been of unsound mind for years and
long before he married Dora Richardson, the
fourteen-year-old girl from his kitchen. They
date his insanity from the time he shot negro
servant who disobeyed him, and will lay claim
TO all Of the property on this ground. The chill

ceedingly profuse hemorrhage. Hem
orrhage and shock were given as the
causes OF death.
DR. Mort stated that he had attended
tho deceased. He saw him first at about
3 p. M. at the hospital. Risike was
then very feeble. Or. Kuramoto had
partly bandages the deceased prior TO
the time that DR.. Mort saw him.
Detective McDuiIie stated that he
was in the Patrol wagon when It took
the deceased from the railway wharf
to the hospital. The wagon arrived
there at G:35. There was no physi-
clan present. McDufiie had TO per-
suade the head nurse to telephone for
a doctor. McDuffle saw that the man
was bleeding profusely. /. ';as IuIly

Toranushi Mitsusaki, the foreman
of the gang of Japanese laborers, tes-
titled that the roller was put on the
car and blocked up with two pieces OF
timber. They moved the roller lit

that one of the timbers was too smal
was responsible for the accident. Il
was purely accidental.

His Last Hope Realized.

From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.1
 In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after for tune who made the big race one fine day in April. During his travelling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim, he encountered much bad wa ter. which. together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case be- came so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony. and in a few minutes the dose was repeated. The good effect of the medicine was soon noticed and with in an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for fortnight. This one little bottle worked complete cure. and he cannot but feel grateful The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by all druggists.

 Good Batting by Batch-Tuckey's
 Good Work-Osher Games.
 In an interesting game on the Savin
 Rock grounds yesterday afternoon New
 Haven won from Holyoke in the eighth inning by the score of 5 to i. The game was replete with interesting situations, and the enthusiasm Of the crowd was
 one of the features of the afternoon.
 "Rube" Vickers was in the box for Hol- yoke, and Tuckey did the twirling for the champions. Vickers furnished a vast amount of fun for the crowd, par ticularly in the eighth inning when New
 Haven won the game by sending Connell around the circuit after he had made a clean hit. Bone secured his base on an error by 'Rube'' and that pleased the | crowd and riled the ''Rube," who then sent the ball over the plate like hot
 shot. Bone rattled the .Holyoke pitch 1 CT immediately by walking toward sec I ond base when the ball was in Vickers' | hands. Cornell was on third and Vick-
 CTS did not dare throw the ball. Bone kept walking toward the base and when | within two feet of second turned back | toward first. He finally touched sec- ond and Vickers enjoyed a ''call' from
 the bench and the ridicule of the crowd. Connell scored the winning run on Fitz- | matrices single.
 New Haven began the scoring in the ! first inning, piling up two runs, two er- TOTS and a hit netting the tallies. In | this inning Bone stole second while the | ball was in the pitchers possession, his ! performance in the eighth being the sec- | ond of the game. Hits by Cornell and Hayward and an error in the sixth gave New Haven two more runs.
 For Holyoke Batch was the best man ! with the stick, making four hits in four
 times at bat. Holyoke scored twice in | the fourth and added two more runs to ! their credit in the eighth, singles by
 Batch in each of these innings doing the l work with men on bases.
 Three double plays were made by New
 Haven, Ahearn participating in all I three and completing the third unassist-
 ed. Tuckey struck out three men in the
