A TRAGIC DEATH.
Eliza Harvey Killed on the Plane at
Barnun1, w. Va.

Barnum, w. Va.
1t is seldom that a sadder death
than that of Eliza Harvey, daughter
of Ellen b. and Gus. b. Harvey, of
Walnut Bottom is recorded On Sat
urday morning this little girl, beau
tiful in appearance, of most attractive
manners and in the spring time of
life, left her home for Barnum, w
Va, little town at a distance of
three miles, where she went to make
a few necessary purchases and was on
her way home when death claimed
| her as its victim. She was ascending
the incline above Barnum plane and
was struck by runaway coal car
that was descending the incline which
killed her instantly. Her sister Flor
ence, who accompanied her, escaped
with a few painful bruises, which she
received in trying to save the precious
life of her beloved sister. 1t seemed
she had been conversing with the
angels the night before and was unu-
sually happy that morning before
leaving home. but instead of return
ing to her earthly home she returned
to her heavenly home, free from all
sorrow and pain and joined her happy
little brother who had crossed over
the river few months before, and
together they joined in the heavenly
chorus, and are now watching and
reckoning for their loved ones on
earth to meet them in their happy
home.
Funeral services were held at Wal
nut Bottom Monday afternoon at 1.30
o'clock, Rev. Yost officiating. Inter
ment was made in the family grave
yard. Among the many relatives of
the deceased present were the fol
lowing: Mr.. and Mrs. Louis Yeager,
Davis, w. Va, Mrs. G. B. Sapp,
Thomas, w. Va, Mr.. Joseph Barricks,
Weaver, w. Va, and Mr.. G.. i. Har-
vey, Mt. Savage, Md.
Eliza was aged II years, months
and "a days and was a most ambitious
child at her age. She will not only
be missed by her loved ones at home
and at school but by all who knew
her. She leaves a mother, father,
three sisters and three brothers to
mourn their loss. The bereaved fam
lily have the heartfelt sympathy of
the entire community.
How sweet are the prospects of home,
Where my loved ones again l shall see;
There in sorrow no longer to roam,
They are watching and waiting for me.
Dearest friends that love in regions above,
Are now reckoning and waiting for me.
HER. TEACHER.

REMITTANCES;
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY IS, 1904.
MARCUS ALONZO HANNA.

The soul of Marcus A. Hanna has
winged its flight across life's narrow
yale into the limitless expanse of celes-
tial glory. Valiant was the struggle,
fought with characteristic courage
that acknowledge defeat only when
every resource of science had been ex-
hausted, and life's flame had dwindled
to fitful spark. Marcus A. Hanna
died as he had lived. His marvellous
courage, springing from a conscious
ness of virtue which hadrendered him
superior to the fear of reproach, con-
tempt or opposition, when in pursuit
or defense of the right, became the
more pronounced with the hour of
passing. Death presented no terrors
to the DYING statesman. 1t seemed
"but as the passage out of prison into
palace; out of sea of troubles into a
heaven of rest Dissolution merely
pressaged the eternal reward which
his earthly work and sacrifices for the
betterment of humanity had won.
The prominence with which the
dead statesman has been identified
with the commercial and national
progress of the American republic is
known throughout the world Nor
was it greatness thrust upon him
but the grand achievement of great
ability, unswerving fidelity and tire
less energy. Our nation is vastly bet
ter for his having lived.

THE END OF HEARST.
Hearst's Failure to Carry Kansas
Causes Surprise.
INDIAN TERRITORY FOR COCKRELL.
a Prediction That Hearst Will Go into the
Convention with Less Than One Hun
dred Delegates and Without Hope
of Increasing His Strength.

Washington, April S.-Hearsts fail.
ure to secure an instructed delegation
In Kansas was complete surprise to
the politicians here. There was con-
siderable interest in the results, but
the friends Of all candidates had con-
coded the state to the New York edi-
tor. The sweeping change In public
sentiment throughout the state during
the past two weeks was not understood
here and a Hearst delegation bound
by ironclad instructions was every
where predicted. 1t is the almost uni
versal impression here that the Kan
sas result marks the beginning of the
end Of the Hearst movement through,
out the west Hearst managers
worked harder for Kansas than for
any other state. They insisted that
no democrat could be elected without
the aid of the states west Of the Mis-
souri, river and that Hearst alone could
carry any of these states. Kansas
was counted upon to send a Hearst
message to South Carolina and Arkan-
sas, where the Hearst promoters have
taken their final stand in the south.
Without reference to their political
Affiliations the Kansans here would
have been pleased had the convention
declared for Harris. In the event OF
Parker's nomination the democrats
who were conspicuous In. the Bryan
campaign will make a determined
fight for second place on the ticket. |
The two names most conspicuously |
mentioned In this connection are ex-
Senator Turner, Of Washington, Mis- |
sourian by birth, and man Of con-
spicuous ability, and ex-senator Har-
Tis, Of Kansas.
In the poll recently printed in the |
New York World claiming practl-
cally the entire list of states for Par
ker, the 20 delegates from Kansas
were placed in the doubtful list and |
the Indian territory conceded to
Hearst With this exception every es-
Innate of the probable strength of the
various candidates has conceded the
20 Kansas delegates to Hearst The
result will be to check whatever
Hearst sentiment there is in the west.
1t was predicted last night that Hearst
would go into the convention with
less than 100 delegates and without
any hope of Increasing his strength.
From the Indian territory comes
Che report that the sentiment in that
territory Is for Cockrell.
The Hearst movement has never
taken strong root in Nebraska. and the
result in Kansas is expected TO practl-
eally put an end to the Hearst effort
IN Mr.. Bryan's state. Nebraska will
probably go to the democratic conven.
tion uninstructed.

eOU pages OF typewriter matter. Ii
is a complete transcript of the pro.
ceedings of the trial and will be used
by the United States court Of appeals
in reviewing the case. One of the
principal points forming the basis OF
the appeal OF Jne case rs rfIau Judge
Adams admitted as evidence several
checks received by Senator Burton
from the Rialto Grain and Securities
company while he was in Washington.
The defense contended in the trial
that II an offense had been committed
when Senator Burton accepted and
cashed the checks, 1t was committed in
Washington and that the st. Louis
court consequently did not have juris-
diction. Judge Adams sustained the
arguments of the district attorney,
who held that the bank in Washington
at which Senator Burton cashed the
checks acted simply as his agent and
that, in any event, the question of
Jurisdiction in that instance was a
matter for the jury to decide.
Another point upon which Senator
Buttons attorneys laid stress in the
bill of error was the introduction of
testimony and documentary evidence,
which. it Is alleged, tended to preju-
dice the minds Of the jurors against
the defendant, while 1t mad no direct
bearing upon the merits of the charge
against Senator Burton. A specific in,
stance was the overruling Of objections
by the defense to the district attorney
reading several kilograms which
passed between Senator Burton and
w. D. Mahaney, former vice president
of the Rialto Grain and Securities
company.
The Iron county Jail, to which Sen
ator Burton was sentenced tor six
is located in the county seat
at Ironton, Mo-, q village Of 400 pop
ulation, 88 miles southwest Of st. !
Louis on the Iron Mountain railroad.
According to the rule of the Jail. I
which shortens each years sentence Of /,
a prisoner by three months for good
behavior, Senator Burton's period Of
there may be reduced to
w months.

Delights at Mitchell's Growth.

Rev. DR.. o. E. Murray, of Spring
Valley, Ill.,, a prosperous suburb of
Chicago, is in the city on a visit
with old friends. DR.. Murray has
not heen in Mitchell for five years
and he said be was wonderfully sur
prised at the growth that had been
accomplished in that short space of
time. He was not ready to be
greeted by the sight Of so many
handsome residences, the growth Of
so many beautiful trees, the erection
of a library building, nor that of a
fine city hall and a splendid hotel
building, not to mention above all
the new building for Dakota Univer-
sity. When he was here five years
ago DR.. Murray said that the faces
Of the people were elonpated. and did
not wear the bright smile and cheer
full look with which he was greeted
on this occasion. He is spending
most of his vacation with his BROTH
ers Oh a farm near Spencer, and he
had quite an experience in the way
of farming. lie said that one of the
hired men on the farm left uncere-
moniously while in the midst of the
barley harvest and that he mounted
the binder and cut barley and rye.
Or. Murray expressed himself as be-
ing we'll pleased with the growth of
Dakota University and he thought
that the people of Mitchell ought to
feel themselves particularly fortu-
nate in securing the services of DR..
Nicholson as the president of the in
stitutiOn.
