TYREE, LEADER OF MEN,
LEAVES ALL FOR ANOTHER
WOMAN.
Fair Client Has PersistentIy Followed
Him Till She Could Lead
Him OFF.

LOS ANGELES, July 21.-Judge j.
| H. Tyree, a blind man, almost 20
years of age, deserted his family, his
friends, his home and everything which
| makes an old mans life worth living,
to go away with a woman named Do
ra L. Taylor. Judge Tyree has been
a leader of men. He served through
| the war as a major in the Fifth Mis-
souri,, a northern regiment, and with
a gallant record behind him he en-
tered the law at it's close. With his
son he conducted a law business at
Carthage. Mo-, and amassed a con-
siderable fortune.
Six years ago he became suddenly
blind and two years ago Dora L. Tay-
lor entered his life. The first time
she called at his Office as a client AS
was mis- custom, the old gentleman
took her into the private office and
held a long consultation with her.
She came again next day, and soon
was spending about half her time
closeted with the aged lawyer. When
the judge was not at his office, she
went to his home, where she was Of
ten seen peeping through the window
blinds and trying to hold communica-
ton with him.
When his son suggested that he
should take a trip to California for the
winter and thus end the incident of
the Taylor woman. the old man readi-
~ assented. In company with Mr..
and Mrs. Gideon Truesdell, his SON.

Carthage last September. At Galena.

by the Truesdells. When the Judge
disappeared he was wearing a belt

genius of the period, Henry H.
Rogers. Then, with brutal direct
ness, he describes how in dividing the
profits of the Amalgamated deal the
biggest financiers in Wall street were
trlcked and deceived like the veriest
crowd of tyros. 1t is the most sensa-
tional instance of the double cross in
modern finance.

Big Lead Merger Completed.

NEW YORK, July 21.-It is said on
good authority that the plan for the
merger of the National Lead company
and the United Lead company will be
favOrably acted upon at today's meet
ing of the directors of the National
Lead company and that the deal will
be cOnsumated at an early date. Re-
ports have been current at different
times during the last two years that
the rival lead interests would get to-
gether. Negotiations nave at times
been held looking to such a re-
suit. Each time, however, they came
to naught, and the rivalry became
more bitter. 1t seems that it was this
for bringing the two interests to-
gether
1t is believed that in the proposed
merger the National will take over
only the manufacturing plants of it's
rival, and that the mining interests
owned by the Guggenheim- Ryan COM
bine-which also controls the United
Lead company-Will be otherwise dis
posed of. If this plan is carried out
the mining properties Of the United
Lead company will probably be turned
over to the American Smelling and Re-
filming company, which is also con-
trolled by the Guggenheim- Ryan peo-

KILLED IN THE KLONDYkE
POPULARITY KNOWN AS "RUSH"
BECAUSE OF HIS RUSSIAN
PARENTAGE.
Was Familiar Character in Tacoma
and Had Done Time in the
Penitentiary.

TACOMA, Wash. July 21.-John
Malone, of the Warwick saloon, has
received word of the murder of Hen
ry Massey a few weeks ago in Ram
part. Alaska Massey was killed by
Charles Hilty, Yukon miner. The
fight grew out of a drunken brawl in
which both men are said to have used
their guns. Massey had several
claims and a fine dog team, but moth
ing is known as to what disposition
has been made of the property.
Massey was employed for eight or
ten years as porter in the Warwick
saloon. He went north in 1898 with
Malone, and had intended coming back
to Tacoma next fall. He had been in
cities about Puget Sound for several
years before locating in Tacoma.

Rush" became a fixture. He appeared
to have no incentive in life beyond
securing place to sleep and three

He furnished perpetual source of
amusement to the frequenters of the
saloon. He was the butt of all prac-

ence of liquor his rage would be ter
rible. To Malone he was ''as faith
full as a Cog" No work was too diff

Beyond his actual food and sleep
Rush had only one interest in life.
That was dogs. He would make
friends with every dog that came
along. Those who knew him said he
recognized a kinship. When Rush"
went to Alaska With Malone he pos
sessed a fine large dog, and this he
took with him. The party was on

storm came up and the scow was about
to go down. Not being able to take

In strong contrast with the life and ginger of the Democratic caucus last week on the same floor was the Re publican gathering of last night with it's dampened edges. Several speak CTS, following the close of nomina- tions, endeavored to picture bright side to things for the party in the county, but enthusiasm would not rouse. The crowd dwindled as the speakers proceeded until when adjourn ment finally came. as a piece of wis dom, there were hardly more than twenty-five people in the room. This, too, in spite of the fact that a free keg of beer had been announced. and was opened in an ante room at the close of the session.
 The beer produced the only feature of the evening that brought a real hearty expression from the meeting A husky gentleman in the rear of tue hall introduced the subject shotcIy af- ter the meeting got under way. He announced that the beer was down stairs, and suggested that a committee be appointed to escort it to the floor.

THE NATIONS VOTE.

Some interesting figures on the voting strength of the United States have been gotten out by an eastern mathematician. He estimates. though admitting that much depends on the interest aroused in the Presidential election, that the total vote will be con siderably in excess of 15 ,e90,0 900. It would not be surprising if rH- reached the 16.000,00 mark. r-z-,s s-es -.
 This is a big increase over 1884, when, for the first time. more than 10,000,000 votes were cast. In 1896 the total was nearly 4,000, ,000, the ex- act figures being 13.923,102. The gain in 1900 over 1886 was surpris- ingly small, but it is accounted for by the undoubted fact that the re- election of President Mckinley was so generally believed in that many thousands of voters made no effort to go to the polling places.
 The difference between 1900 and 1896 was less than 25,000. There should be, according to the experts, an increase of something like 1,000,- 900 votes every four years. At this rate the 15.000.000 mark in 1904 be comes a practical certainty, always provided enough interest is aroused to get the voters out.
 Another contributing factor this year will be the emmigrant vote Dur. ing the years 1899 to 1902, inclusive, the immigration aggregated close to 2,000,0 900. From these the new foreign born yeters syoters eof. 1904 will be

 Dr. Caven stepped out of the chair at the close of the club business, and Hugh Fraser. central committeeman, was chosen tc preside. City Clerk Hicks was made secretary. Nomina- lions were then proceeded with.

Pritch- ard and several others were called up- on and made short talks. NIT. Flan- nigan took advantage of the opportuni- ty to tell the assemblage that he was not a candidate for the nomination for District Attorney, but that he was no coward, and would take it if handed to him. In that event he thought he would be able to make a strong race. MT. Brophy declared that it was organ ization solely the party needed to win In the county, and that he thought this fall would see some changes in coun- ty offices. The time was ripe, he said, for these changes, and he expect ed them to occur.

 was from Michigan, and not Colorado,

 Ard from the way the campaign has been started off there is little reason for doubting that a very heavy vote will be polled. We believe this is specially true of the Democratic vote.
