Kansas City, NO, Oct. 31.-The Rev.
III. ID. Fisher, who died Sunday at Bald
win, Kan, was one OF the most famous
characters produced by the trying days
of the border warfare in Kansas and the
subsequent four years of civil war.
Because of his activity as a free-state
man and his association with United
States Senator Jim" Lane, the Rev.
Mr.. Fisher was marked by the Quantrell
band, and his escape from capture and
death during the Lawrence massacre is
one Of the most thrilling and remark
able incidents OF that affair.
DIR. Fisher was one of the few men
who ever refused United States sena-
Iorship. When Senator Lane committed
suicide, Gov. Crowford announced his in
tention Of appointing DIR. Fisher to fill
the vacancy. Later the Rev. Mr.. Fisher
said, in relating his reasons for refus.
ing the office: "My wife and / laid the
matter before God in prayer. The de-

SAY JEROME
WILL WIN
His Campaign Managers Say
He Will Win by $4,000
THE BOARD REFLECTIONS
Deny Jerome Place on Official Ballot in
Republican Column--Ivins a Foe
to the Mortgage Tax
Murphy whistling.

New York, Oct 31.--The final week
Of the local political campaign, which
opened yesterday, bids fair to close in
liyelier fashion than any previous muni-
cipal contest in many years. All the
candidates, city, county and borough,
promise the proverbial ''whirlwind'
wind-up.
The leading feature Of the days de-
yelopments was declaration by Mr..
WINS of his uncompromising opposition
to the mortgage tax law, and his pledge
to labor for its repeal should he be
elected. He also came out against the
"shoohy" system in the police depart
ment.
Jerome's campaign manager made pub
lie prediction that the district attor-
ney win win in his independent fight
for reelection by $4,000.
1t was expected that there would be
slump in the Hearst movement by
this time, and that it would be pos
sible, therefore, to do some intelligent
figuring on the vote, based on the re-
turns Of the municipal elections Of 1901
and 1903; but the slump has not come.
On the contrary, all the indications are
that the Hearst movement has not yet
reached its climax. 1t seems to be gain
ing force rapidly, and the political proph-
cts find it useless to try to make any,
thing out of the figures of recent cleo
tons because there ii no basis for q
comparison. The oldest politicians say
that nothing like this Hearst movement
has ever occurred in New York politics
within their memory. Hearst has ALSO
lutely no personal magnetism and speaks
like sehoolboy who has learned his
piece for commencement. Yet when he
leaves the platform he is almost mobbed
by his followers. They want to shake
his hand, and, failing in that, they try
to touch his garments. They believe
that he is a real Moses Of the people
and that all the evils that affect the
people will disappear speedily if he is
elected.
Chas. r. Murphy, as usual, was found
'whistling to Keep his courage up at
| Tammany Hall He said as to the Je-
rome contest that the district attorney
would be welcome to invade his home
district, the Eighteenth, and talk freely
to Murphy's constituents. Any SEIZED
uled meeting there would be cancelled
OH request, he added, and the hall turned
over TO the chrome managers if they
thought they could increase their can
didate's chances by such an invasion.
The board of elections has refused
BY vote of to 2 to place the name
Of Jerome on the official ballot in the
Republican column for district attor-
ney.
Betting on the election result wa:
more active, thought the odds prevailing
at the close OF last week varied but
little. Figures on Jerome indicated q
slight increase in confidence among hi:
| friends.

POISONED,
BUT HOW?
Indefinite Result OF Examina-
ton Of Children's Bodies.
I'm BURLINGTON MYSTERY
State Laboratory of Hygiene Finds Trace
Of Poison in stomachs Of Two Of
Victims, But Can't Tell
| What 1t Is.
in BURLINGTON MYSTERY

Burlington, Oct. 31.-Dr. b. II. Stone,
director Of the State Laboratory OF Hy-
giene, has made his report on the analy-
sis of the stomachs of two orphanage
asylum pupils who died Inysteriously
last week. The report gives details of
an examination OF the tissue of the two
children. One was sterile and the other
showed the presence Of bacteria, probably
I due to post morton infection. The
microscopic examination showed evil
dence Of acute poisoning, but gave no
clue to what this material may have been
and fails to show anything which could
give a clue to the cause of death. The
report suggests that the cause may have
| been due to the bark, seeds or leaves
of the locust tree, the symptoms Of
which are vomiting, flushed face, dryness
OF throat and mouth, dilated pupils,
epigastric pains, stupor, livid lips, sunk
en- eyes and commissions. The milk used
at the asylum was examined and shown
| to be normal. Dir. Holton took maple
buds and wild cucumber, OF both OF
which the children ate, but they gave
no clue.
| The fact that score Of children were
stricken in the same way within few
days clearly indicated poisoning and in
Ivestigation was at once set on foot to
locate the trouble. The sick children as
well as a large number of others were
out in the yard ON Wednesday and the
first supposition was that they had eaten
OF some poisonous shrub or tree, but
this theory has been exploded by denials
| from the children who were examined
singly on that point Careful examina-
ton OF the trees fails TO discover any
indications that bark or buds had been
removed. The children said that they
had eaten maple seeds, but as everyone
knows who has seen squirrels deyour
them by the score, they are harmless.
| Some Of the symptoms of the poison
ed children were those Of ptomaine poi
soning. But no food could be found at
the asylum thus poisoned. No canned
goods are used there There was no
| Ice cream, none Of the things to which
ptomaine poison is usually attributed
The physicians as well as the asylum
managers are wholly at a loss to deter
mine the cause of sickness.

WASHINGTON SCORES WHITES.
Says They Have Created an African
Race Problem.

Chicago, Oct. 81 Booker +. Washing
ton in d speech at mass meeting Sun
day at the First Regiment Almory, in
connection with the national convention
OF Negro Baptists, blamed the white
man for the existence of a race problem
in Africa. He declared it was created
by mot allowing the black man in his
native land to ride on passenger trains,
but forcing him to ride in freight cars"
Continuing, Mr. Washington said:
"The European nations almost have TAX

missionaries to Africa shows an adj
vanced step, for only progressive and

Bible, the spelling book and the gospel,
but you are uniting the people"
The convention closed yesterday. Los

PROCRASTINATION
The Habit of Delay-Some of Its conse-
quences-Causes of This Bad Habit.
g Defer not till tomorrow 20 be wise.
Tomorrow's sun TO thee may never rise.

- Defer not I'LL tomorrow 10 De Wise,
Tomorrows sun 70 thee may never rise.
Truly it has ben said that procras-
tination is the thief of time. The habit
of delay is one OF the most vicious
faults to which mankind is subject. In
almost every instance delays are en-
tirely unnecessary and are often due
to carelessness, but more often to
thoughtlessness. Strange as it may seem,
this danger from delay is encountered
more often as result of carelessness
or thoughtlessness about our health or
she health of someone dependent upon
us. How often Pneumonia could be
prevented if the victim had acted sooner.
Now is the time to watch out for
that little cold. Now is the time to
take steps to check it, and the best
Magee's Emulsion. This is the wonder
full combination of Cod Liver Oil, Malt
and Hypophosphites. 1t primes the
system SO that it will throw off that
"little cold" and prevent such serious
complications as Pneumonia, Bronchitis,
Grip, etc. Magee's Emulsion is nom
narcotic and non-alcoholic. Nothing
enters into its composition that is not
of value to the system. 1t produces
fat, keeps you warm and makes you
strong. Magee's Emulsion is food, a
medicine and a tonic combined. Beware
of the wine preparations Of cod liver
oil. They contain no oil, SO cannot pos
sibly produce the benefits sought. Be-
sides, the alcohol will cause reaction
after you cease taking it, that will
leave you in worse condition than be-
fore.
Magee's Emulsion will surely help
you. Start taking it today and month
later compare yourself with your con-
dition of today. Don't delay, tomorrow
never comes. Remember, no wine, no
whiskey, just food. Get bottle today
