of His Life.

Worcester, Mass, Sept. 30.-George
Frisbie Hoar, senior United States sem
ator from Massachusetts, died at his
home in this city at :35 o'clock Friday
morning. The end followed a period of
unconsciousness that had continued
since early Tuesday and came so gently
that only the attending physicians were
aware of the exact moment of dissolu-
ton. The attending physicians de-
SPARED of the senator's life six weeks
ago, but such was the vitality exhibited
by their distinguished patient that even
they were surprised and the public was
at times led to cherish faith in an
ultimate recovery.
George Frisbie Hoar was born in Con-
cord, Mass, August 20, 1926. He was
educated at Concord academy and at
Harvard college, from which he was
graduated in 1876. He studied law at
Harvard Law school and was admitted
to the bar at Worcester, where he was
soon chosen as city solicitor and as pres
ident of the city library trustees. In
1851 he was elected to the Massachusetts,
legislature, and in 1856 to the state SEN
ate. In 1868 he was sent to congress and
was reelected to the three following
congresses, but declined renomina-
tion finally. He was chosen senator
from Massachusetts, in 1877, and has
been IN the senate continuously since.

president made his visit. Neither en-
tered the sickroom. AS Mr.. Roosevelt
was leaving about six o'clock he spoke
feelingly of Mr.. Payne to the newspaper
men gathered in front of the hotel as
"the sweetest, most lovable and most
trustful man ever knew"
Washington, Oct. Sin succession to
Mr.. Payne, George Bruce Cortelyou, for
mer secretary of the department of COM
merce and labor, and now chairman Of
the republican national committee, will
become postmaster general Mr. Cortel-
you's appointment as head of the post
office department was determined on sew
eral months ago by President Roosevelt,
when Mr.. Payne indicated to the presi-
dent his desire to retire from the de-
partment on account of the precarious
state of his health
1t is the understanding now that Mr..
Cortelyou will assume the duties of post
master general as soon as he convenient-
ly can after the close of the pending cam
paign. 1t is probable that he will enter
the office about the first of December,
although no date for the assumption Of
his new responsibilities has been deter
mined upon, even tentatively, since after
the election it will take him some time
to wind up the affairs of the campaign,
and he also may desire to take at least q
brief rest. In the interim the RESPONSE
bilities of directing the affairs of the
post office department will devolve on
Mr.. Wynne, who has just returned with
Mrs. Wynne and their two young daugh-
tiers from an extended trip to Europe.
He will continue as acting postmaster
general until such time as the president
may designate formally the successor to
Mr.. Payne. Under the law the president
is required to make such an appointment
within 80 days.

drowned. Among these were the three
children of j. E. Stevens, Felix Viii

St. Petersburg, Oct. 4.-The war com.

out issuing further news from the front,
A dispatch from Mukden filed there at
1880 o'clock Monday night states mere
ly that all is quiet there. There is in
tense interest here in developments at

the authorities also are utterly in the
dark as to what is transpiring. The
little news received from Port Arthur
comes from abroad, but that little ia
satisfactory inasmuch as it records a

HONOR ACCEPTED. BY-DAVis.
Synopsis Of Letter Written by Dem
ocratic Nominee for Vice
President.

Blllins, w. Va, Oct. 3.-Hon. Henry
G. Davis, democratic nominee for
vice president of the United States, has
forwarded to Hon. John Sharp Williams,
chairman, and other members OF the
notification committee, his letter for
mally accepting the nomination. He
says the times are propitious for the
reinstatement of the democratic party
in control of the government, and de-
clares that thoughtful and patriotic peo-
pie are becoming more and more dis
trustful OF the heady and personal ele-
ment Of the present administration, and
are more than willing to see it replaced
by one that better recognizes constitu-
tional and other lawful restraints. He
charges the administration with eXtrav-
agance in governmental expenditure.
With reference to the Panama canal,
Mr.. Davis deprecates the action of the
present administration, which inflicted
a wound upon our national honor by its
disregard of the rights of a weaker ma
ton in order to gain doubtful credit
for energy in forwarding that great en-
terprise.
On the tariff question Mr. Davis says
that many of the existing tariff rates are
undoubtedly too high upon such
articles as enables the manufacturer to
sell his products abroad cheaper than
at home. The existing tariff rates arc
excessive and enable powerful combi-
nations to extort unjust and oppressive
tribute from the people. Relief from
these conditions will only come through
the success of the democratic party,
which stands for wise, conservative
and gradual change in the tariff laws,
which will equalize the burdens of tax
alton and make honest competition pos
sible. But in making such changes its
purpose will be to legislate with due
regard for the labor and capital in
volved in industrial enterprises.
Mr.. Davis points out the evils which
come to the people through combina-
lions of capital and corporate interests
which are so conducted as to be per-
nicious and harmful to the general inter-
est. He heartily endorses the declara-
ton in the St. Louis platform in favor
Of arbitration. He declares the revival
by the republican party of the race
issue must of necessity retard the do
velopment of the southern states, and
will seriously interfere with the indus
trial progress of both sections. He de-
nounces the evidences of fraud in the
public service under the present admin
istration as disclosed by the investiga.
tions of the post Office and land depart.

Try to Recover Lost Positions.
TOXIC, Oct. 3.-The Russians are re-
ported to be desperately endeavoring
to retake their lost positions, includ-
ing Fort Kuropatkin, in the hope of re-
storing the water supply of Port Ar
thur. They are said to have repeated
ly assaulted the Japanese after she'll

les. The japanese continue to hold
the positions. Both sides are said to
have suffered severely The newly
mounted heavy Japanese guns are
said to command the entire harbor.
The position OF the remnant of tho

Cossaclzs Drive Japs Back.
St. Petersburg, Oct 5.-Otticial advices
from the far east describe a series Of
skirmishes on the southern front of Gen.
Kuropatkins army, the only Importance
of which lies in the fact that the Japan
csc are showing a disposition to press
forward and feel out the Russian posi-
lions. Gen. Mistchenko's Cossacks in
every case drove back the opposing
forces. The activity of the Japanese
outposts is doubtless intended to screen
movements Of their armies, and there
fore may be regarded as precursory
symptoms of final preparations for an
advance, which probably will begin
within week.
A special messenger has brought to
the emperor Gen. kuropatkin's full re-
port of the battle Of Liaoyang. The mes
senger, who submitted to an interview,
declares that the main army is ccncen-
trated at Tie pass, and that it is not likely
Gen. Kuropatkin will make determined
stand at Mukden.

tors Spooner and Quarles. originated
some time prior to the holding of the

the open rupture between the two fac
tons occurred. The state central COM
mittee. which issued the call for the con-
vention, was composed of chairman
and % members. 1G of whom were al
herents Of Gov. LaFollette. The state
central committee in its call for the con-
vention announced that it would act as
a committee on credentials and deter
mine what delegates were entitled to
seats in the convention hall
The stalWarts assert that the state
central committee, acting as committee
on credentials, excluded from the con-
vention many properly accredited dele
gates who were antagonistic to LaFol-
lette and substituted men favorable to
him. The LaFollette followers and the
majority of the state central committee
declare this assertion of the stalwarts
to be untrue, and say that no properly
accredited delegate was denied a seat
and that the delegates who were finally
admitted to participate in the conven-
ton were the only men from the con-
tested districts entitled to the privilege.
When the state convention met the
stalwarts withdrew in body and held
convention of their own, nominating
Samuel A. Cook. Both conventions
named the same presidential electors.
At the national convention in Chicago
the stalwart delegates were seated.
Then the stalwarts asked the supreme
court to enJoin Secretary of State Houser
from certifying the candidates named by
the half-breed convention and placing
their names on the republican ticket.
On this issue the decision was rendered.

THE SIOUX -MOTHER-IN-LAW
Although invisible to Her Son-in.
Law She Can Make Him
Very tSorry."

'sss; It is one Of the oldest customs of the
ssSioux Indians that the son-in-law shall
I5mot look upon the face of his mother-in-
Nav, or communicate with her any more
,,iafthan is absolutely necessary. This GUS
tom is probably the outgrowth of family
sbrawls arising from their crude way of
living, huddled together in huts and
@teepees At all events, the plan seems
to work we'll, says Youths Companion.
When. in case of sickness, or by invi-
tation from her daughter, the mother
.tn-laW visits the family of her son-in-
law, a partition is usually made in the
hut or teepee by means of blanket be-
hind which the mother-in-law retires
whenever the son-in-law approaches
the home.
In the case of John Night Pipe, a
young bridegroom living in Ten Horns
camp, on the reserve, the invisible
mother-in-law was the source of great
disturbance. Although he never be-
held her person, the sound of her scold-
ing voice easily penetrated the blanket
wall. John made several fruitless eff
forts to dislodge his mother-in-law, and
send her to her home on the other part
OF the reserve, but without avail. He
finally decided to appeal to the Indian
agent for relief. This is his letter:
my dear respectable Friend: have
few words to say to you and they are
that am sorry to myself 1t is an old
woman that makes me very sorry every
day because she talks with bad, bad
words always to me, and never gets
rested with her tongue, and 1 hate that
kind of business, the bad words, I
mean, holding them always with her
tongue that way.
Nov, if you will send your policeman
to take this woman to her camp, will
be your truly friend with a good heart,
sir, and we will living happy again.
Now this is all and this is me.
"Your acquaintance friend.
"Mr. John Night Pipe"
Inc letter proved effective The dis
turblng mother-in-law was sent to her
home in Black Moons camp, and the
young people were left in possession of
an undivided teepee.
The story, which comes direct from
an Indian agency in Dakota, proves that
the mother-in-law joke is not wholly
the fabrication of the comic paper.
