CORNELIUS VAN coTT DEAD
Postmaster of New York Dies Sud

denly of Heart Disease.
New York, Oct 26.-Cornelius Van
Cott, postmaster Of New York city,
died suddenly of heart failure, follow
ing a sharp attack of acute nervous
indigestion.
He was taken i'll Monday afternoon
at his Office in the federal building,
and his condition was such that the
attending physician deemed his re-
moval unwise at that time. Yesterday
Mr.. Van Cott appeared much better
and was taken to his home in West
seth street. He walked to the elevator
in the federal building without diftl-
Guilty, and his physician believed that
the postmaster was merely suffering
from an attack similar to several he
has had during the past year.
A consultation Of physicians was
held as soon as Mr.. Van Cott reached
his home, and they gave a favorable
prognosis, provided apoplexy did not
intervene. Shortly after, however, the
patient had a sinking spell and died
Of heart failure.
Mr.. Van Cott had been a vigorous
man, but of late he had been subjected
to an unusual amount of trouble. and
this is believed to have undermined
his health. The recent arrest of his
son. Richard Van Cott charged with
coloniZing, was a severe blow to the
postmaster, who expressed his firm
belief in his sons innocence. These
troubles. coupled with advancing age
he was in his 9th year-played an
important part in bringing on the IA
tai Illness.

THE CIRt UMCIsIoN DANCE.

Among tie Yao and Angulu tribes
their custom is TO daBce vulgar dances
and clrcumcise the boys at the age OF
twelve, teaching them too much that
cause early marriages and polygamy.
The boy is given a wife generally among
his cousins in bis own village to keep
the family together not respecting the
fact that they are marrying their kin so
much as following the rule of the head
man to keep all his people together, thus
the little fellows have no choice in get
ting wife. The girls are danced in as
early as nine years of age which is not a
real circumci ,ion but giving them away
very often TO some old man for IA wife
thus she has no choice of her own in the
matter.

A Slight Mistake, But a Wedding Fol-
lowed Just the Same.-The many Towson
friends of the family of Mr.. Charles E. Fen
dali, equity clerk in the Office of the Clerk of
the Circuit Court, were not little surprised
on Sunday morning last to learn that Miss
Matbt dFbs ssdha Me- Ss beddsfs
the groom being Mr.. William w. Cushing, a
draughtsman in the Baltimore city water de-
partment and a member of the well known
family of that name. The marriage took
place at the home of the brides parents, where
the couple, after some difficulty, had met.
The marriage was to have taken place in Wash
ington that day and license had been OBJ
tanned there but misunderstanding as to the
time at which Mr.. Cushing and his prospec-
tive bride were to meet made it happen that as
one train was bearing Mr.. Cushing to Wash.
ington another was bringing Miss Fendall
away. The proposed wedding was secret to
the family of the groom and the family of the
bride, and both were much surprised when
they were notified that the license had been
announced in the Washington papers.
The parties to the wedding, after their mu-
tual mistake as to the time Of meeting, met at
the home of Mr.. Fendall and he was told OF
the prospective union. 1t was then late, but
still early enough for q license to be secured
here. This was done, and Rev. W. II. ID.
Powers of Trinity p. e. Church, was asked 10
oficiate. Mr.. Powers promptly complied,
and the ceremony was performed in the parlor
of the brides home, at 10 80 P. M, in the pres
ence of the members of the brides family.
The bride is descendant of one of Marylands
Oldest families.

been caused by high winds or heavy rains just
