the stakes are money. A warning
should be sufficient. Contrary to
the state laws, the proprietors of
tobacco stores are selling cigarettes

GREAT LOSS TO EXPOSITION.
Influence Had Contributed Much to
Its Welfare

NORFOLK, Va, April 29.-The death OF
General FitZhugh Lee will be a great loss
to the jamestown Exposition Company of
which he was president and which had
achieved much under his management and
direction, but the exposition work will go
| ahead under the management of Chairman
c. Brooks Johnston of the board of gov
ernors, until a successor to General Lee
had been named by the exposition company
directorate. Chairman Johnston today is in
Washington, representing the jamestown
management in details incident to the flu
neral preparations pending the arrival of
Mrs. Lee and daughters tonight.
No public mention of a successor to GEN
eral Lee has been made here, although 1t is
generally conceded that a Virginian will be
named to succeed him.
General Lees influence had been largely
depended upon in securing state appropri-
atoms for jamestown, and he had already
accomplished much in this direction. It was
the idea to have him go abroad and secure
from European and other courts after the
several states of the Union had been
brought in line. This work must now be
taken up by others.
All flags of the public buildings here are
at half mast and the city bell was tolled
today in respect to the memory of General
Lee, over whose death there Is great mourn
ing.
Mayor Riddick today ordered the city in
official mourning, out Of respect to the
memory of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and directed
that the mayors office and other buildings
coming under the executive department of
the city be draped in black
The mayor further ordered the tolling of
the city hall bell and the placing at half
mast of all city flags as a further mark of
respect to the memory of Gen. Lee
Col A. M. Higgins. commanding the list
Virginia Regiment. early in the day ordered
the flag on the Norfolk armory at half
mast, in respect to Gen. Lee.

Take
Ca re
OF Your Heart

1t is the engine that forces the
blood to every part of the body; this
blood conveys the nourishment that
makes flesh, bone and muscle; it
also carries off the WORKOUT parti-
cleS.
If the heart futters or palpitates,
it is weak, and is working imperfect
ly, SO that the body does not get
this nourishment; it also fails to
throw off the impurities, and they
remain to poison the system.
If it is irregular, skips beats or is
painful, the heart is probably 'leaky"
and the circulation poor. These
conditions are dangerous. You can
make your heart well and keep it
SO with DR.. Miles Heart Cure, which
is heart medicine and tonic that

A PART OF HISTORY
CHARLES M. PEPPER TALKS OF
DISTINGUISHED SOLDIER.

ST saw much of General Lee" said Mr..
Charles NJ Pepper, both before and after
the Spanish war. He was part of the his
tory of the times. Not all of that history
has been told and all of it never will be
told but General Lees share in it always
was creditable.
HE was very fond of Cuba. and when
President Cleveland appointed him consel
general he was highly gratifed. He had
made a previous visit to the island with
Mr.. Cleveland ex-Secretary Bayard. Don
Dickinson and others some time after the
close of Mr.. Clevelands first term. When
he took his official post the inSurrection was
at it's height
General Lee, he often stated, went to
Havana with mistaken ideas of the mill
tary character of the war between Spain
and her colony. He also thought in the
light of later information, that he had over
estimated the number of insurgents in arms.
But the fact to which he could not shut
his eyes was that there was a revolution,
and that it not being quelled. He was
criticised for some of his reports. but he
took the criticism very calmly. He could
not find the pacification which was said to
exist, and he so reported. He also found
that vast number of people were dying
chiefly on account of General Weyler's
concentration, though he attributed some of
it to the policy of Maceo and Maxine Go
mez. But that the condition existed was
the one thing which, as he said he could
not get away from His sympa thies were
keenly moved by the distress around him
and he sometimes declared that there had
been nothing like it in the civil war.
Reported It Was Failure.
when the Spanish government under
took to persuade the insurgents back into
their allegiance by autonomy General Lee
watched the movement carefully, but after
a reasonable duration of the experiment
he felt comnelled tO renOrt that "a
failure. Some of his private communica-
tons at the time were much more breezy
and blunt than his official reports can't
find this autonomy was the substance of
all he wrote.

OF FITz LEE
Distinguished Soldier Sue
cumbs to Paralysis.
END CAME PEACEFULLY
WAS CONSCIOUS UP TO FEW
MINUTES BEFORE DEMISE.
Wife and Children En- Route to Wash
ington-Funeral Arrangements
in Allegiance.

Gen. Fitzhugh Lee died at the Providence
Hospital about IL o'clock last night as a
result of the stroke of apoplexy he suffered
or a train en- route to this city from Bos-
ton Thursday night. When death came only
the hospital physician and nurse were at
the bedside. Mrs. Lee and two of her
daughters are hurrying to Washington from
Fort Oglethorpe, Ga, and will not arrive
in this city until after o'clock this even
ing. Mr. Daniel Lee of Fredericksburg,
Va, brother of the general, was in an
adjoining room at the hospital when the
gallant soldier breathed his last, and with
him were Majors Guy l.. Edie and Jeffer-
son r. kean of the medical department of
the army, who had attended the general
since his arrival in this city yesterday
morning. Drs. Edie and Kean had only left
the room a few moments before the end
came.
Gen. Lees death was quiet and peaceful.
He was conscious up to five minutes before
the end came and recognized his brother,
Mr.. Daniel Lee, who came into the room
for moment. The death was not uneX-
pected by The physicians who had been at
tending him since he received the stroke of
apoplexy yesterday morning. His con-
dition was very serious when he arrived,
though it was thought his strong vitality
and will power would aid materially in
this proved to be a vain hope. General
Lee was sixty-eight years of age, however.
and had lived a very active life from his
boyhood. His constitution, while excep-
tionally strong, did not seem to be able to
withstand the shock of the apoplectic
stroke.
From the time he was removed to the
hospital yesterday morning until last night
his condition was satisfactory to the ply
sicians, and they We're in constant attend
ance at his bedside. AT 8 o'clock, however,
he began to grow weaker, his pulse became
lower and his breathing more rapid. The
sinking continued for two hours before
death came. Mr.. Daniel Lee arrived at the
hospital about 1890 o'clock and was per-
mitted to go to his brothers bedside. Cen
eral Lee recognized the visitor and whiS-
pered a greeting. The physicians had for
hidden him to speak. Mr.. Lee remained in
the room but a few minutes, and shortly
after he retired General Lee became I'M
conscious. Within FIVE minutes after losing
consciousness he died.

Spain's power was coming to end. He
himself hoped that a friendly arrangement
could be arrived at by which the indie
pendence of Cuba would be conceded by
Spain and the CubanS would assume fair
share of what was known as the Cuban
debt with the guaranty of the United States
back of 1t. This was also understood to be
the hope of President Mckinley. But the
independence of Cuba was not to come in
this manner.
Gen. Lee had rather doubted the expe-
diency of sending a United States warship
to Havana just at the particular time when
the Maine was ordered there. We had adj
joining rooms in the Hotel Inglaterra, and
the general. whenever he was especially
worried, used to pull a chair out on the bal
cony and call to me to join him. We were
sitting there one day discussing the dis
treSsing conditions when a warShip was
sighted coming into the harbor. / did not
know what vessel it was, but Gen. Lee
quietly remarked, 1t must be the Maine.
Neither of US dreamed of the tragedy that
was to follow.
After the Maine was blown up the times
were trying ones for Americans in Havana.
The populace was greatly excited, yet the
authorities acted with discretion and ex-
erted themselves to fulfil all their obliga-
tons. There were many threats against
Gen. Lee and he received. frequent letters
warning him. These he threw into the
waste basket. However, there was the real
danger of some fanatic seeking his life.
The Spanish authorities were fearful on
this account and they provided special
means for his protection.
Annoying to Gen. Lee.
This was very annoying to General Lee.
yet he recognized the necessity. OF his own
afety he never took thought. I am try
ing to do my duty here, was his comment,
and I can't stop to bother about any
chance consequences All the time his
bonhomie helped to quiet some of his own
countrymen who were inclined to magnify
little circumstances. ood-humored re-
mark a jest, and the wild rumorS would
be seen in a ridiculous light, and no more
would be heard of them.
when the orders came from Washington
for the consul general and all Americans to
leave Hanava General Lee acted with
great tact. He called on some personal
friends among the Spanish officials and took
cordial leave of them. Then he made his
official calls, and, though his reception was
somewhat frigid, he made no complaint.
He did not expect, as he said. a very
hearty leave taking, and he always spoke
well of his treatment by the Spanish
authorities.
when we left on the Fern the only
question was how long before would be
back. Since war was known to be certain,
General Lees ambition was to have a COM
mand in the attack of the land forces on
Havana. But the war did not shape itself
so, and he had no opportunity to add to
his military reputation.
after peace was declared and General
Lee was in command of Camp Columbia
his popularity had much to do with smooth
ing the way of the American military oc-
cupation. He admonished his Cuban
friends, and many of the old Spanish fam
lilies had good reason to remember his kind
less. In every way he was splendid type
of the American

No Funeral Arrangements.

No arrangements have been made for the
funeral. The body has been allowed to re
main at the hospital, and will not be re-
moved until the arrival of Mrs. Lee, when
her wishes will be consulted.
1t is said a strong effort will be made to
have the funeral ceremonies take place here
and the body inferred at Arlington. 1t is
considered especially appropriate that the
remains of the eX-confederate leader should
rest at the former home of his distinguished
uncle. His service in the army during the
Spanish-American war entities him to a
burial plot at Arlington, and an effort will
be made to have his family arrange to
hold the services here. 1t is believed that
the fact that Arlington is in Virginia will
satisfy the friends of the dead man who de-
sire that his remains shall rest in his ma
tive state Mr.. Daniel Lee will probably
have charge of the arrangements. He ar
rived here from Fredericksburg at o'clock
last night and remained at the hospital
until Gen. Lee died This morning he de-
parted for Lynchburg, where he will meet
Mrs. Lee and her daughters and accom-
pany them to the city.
The great interest shown in the Illness
of Gen Lee was well illustrated by group
of southern men, some of them ex-confed-
crate soldiers. who gathered in the lobby
of the Raleigh yesterday soon as the in
telligence of the generals illness was re-
ceiyed, and remained there, receiving bull
letins from the hospital until the general
died. Many expressions of regret are heard
on all sides and from people in every walk
of life.
The members of the Confederate Vet
Grams Associa ton of the District, many OF
whom served under Gen. Lee during the
civil war, express their deep sorrow at his
sudden demise, and have made arrange
ments to attend the funeral in body
should the services be held in this city.

Appointed Major General.

At the outbreak of the war with Spain
he was appointed major general of volun-
teers and was assigned to the command of
the eth Army Corps. His corps did not see
service in Cuba during the war, but after
the treaty of peace had been signed he was
sent to Cuba and for time was governor
general of Havana. He was discharged as
a major general in 1899 and was immedi-
ateIy appointed a brigadier general of VOL
unteerS, in which rank he served until the
reorganization of the army in 1901, when
he was made a brigader general of the
regular establishment, and a month later
was placed the retired list.
After retiring from the army Gen. Lee
became president of the jamestown EXPOSE
ton Company, which has charge of the ter
centenary of the landing of the first settlers
in Virginia to be celebrated with an eXpoSi-
ton at jamestown. Va, in 1907. He had
been very actively engaged in this work
ever since he retired from the army He
has travelled considerably throughout the
country, making speeches before legislative
assemblies and eulsting aid and support for
the exposition. He was on his way home
from Boston, where he had appeared before
the legislature of Massachusetts in the in
terest of the exposition, when he was seized
