Some one seems anxious to destroy ex-
Gov. Whyte's country home al Ruxton, near
Baltimore. Last Saturday his stable was set
on FIRE, but the FIRE was extinguished before
much damage was done, and on Monday his
residence was fred. Fortunately very little
of the contents were burned bed and some
clothing in the room. Both fires were the
work Of an incendiary. Upon examining the
residence it was found that door was I'M
locked, Ere started in two places, and the
upper sash in the bed room down, so as to
give draft The dwelling was unoccupied,
as the family had no; moved out of the city.

Death of Mayor McLane.

Mayor Robert NJ. McLane, of Baltimore,
committed suicide at his residence in that
city last Monday afternoon by shooting him
self through the head. The ball entered his
right temple and came out near the left ear.
No cause is assigned except overwork and
anxiety of MIND in regard to settling the work
in the burnt district of that city. His most
intimate friends say that he was progressing
we'll in that line, but it seems the criticisms
of the "know. tails and the pressure of so
many interests caused sudden loss of nerve
and he ended it all as above stated. He was
married May A. The Baltimore Sun says of
Mayor McLane:
HE was but SO years Of age; he had won
distinction as the States Attorney of Balti-
more city; he was well grounded in the law;
he had youth on his side and laudable am
bition to stand well in the estimation OF his
felIow-citizens. The young men of Baltimore
rallied around him and he had the backing of
a distinguished ancestry-all, in fact. that
could promote personal effort. Moreover he
was inspired by zeal for the public welfare
and labored industriously to promote It,
Tears are not out of place for his untimely
end, nor profound sympathy for the widow
and the father, nor regret for our own loss as
citizens of Baltimore in every grade Of lite. y

According to the Baltimore papers Mayor
Timanus is almost swamped with applications
for positions. As soon as the late Mayor s
death was announced the hungry hordes be-
gan filing their letters on the principle that
delays are dangerous. One paper says:
ALREADY the rush for offices under the new
administration has begun. Mayor Timanus
has been besieged hourly since his induction
into Office, both at the City Hall and at his
home. Also each mail brings numerous re-
quests for places from the presidency of the
second branch city council to the wheeling OF
"hokey pokey" cart on the smooth moo pave
msnts in the center of the city. The tenor OF
many of the communications is that the
Democrats, Regulars and Hayesites, should
be bounced as speedily as possible and Re
publicans, tried and true, except Waehterites,
put in their places.

oUAY's LAST PREDICTION.
Said Approaching Campaign VIII
be q Hard One.

BEAVER, Pa, May S0.-A group of Senator
Quay's former friends, in Quay's library to.
day, while discussion the dead mans political
career, were advised that up to the last he
took a keen interest in the pending Presiden-
tial election.
1t was said that he wanted Senator Cameron
to call on President Roosevelt for him, and to
advise him that be was making mistake in
not appointing politician to be the National
Chairman. Quay is reported to have sized
up the approaching campaign as one of the
hardest in history, with the possibilities of
turning into close fight, and it will require a
politician to be the head of the party machine.

garded as typical not only of the standard
