PROF. THORNDROUGH'S
SUDDEN DEATH.
The Principal Of Franklin Schools
Succumbs to Exposure and
Exhaustion, After a Days
Hunt in the Bottoms.

Prof. W. E. Thornbrough, princi-
pal OF the Franklin schools, died at
his home In this city at 3 O'Clock
Sunday morning. His death was
sudden, wholly unexpected and the
announcement was a great shock to
the people Of Butler.
Saturday morning, In company
with Prof. Henderson, Prot. Thorn
brough went to Athol on the train
and walked over into the Medley bot
toms after ducks. He was apparent
ly in perfect health and in high
spirits. After tramping the bottoms
and becoming very much fatigued,
the two partook OF a lunch. Prof.
Thornbrough ate heartily OF canned
Clipped beef and cheese. Afterwards
he drank freely and frequently OF the
bottom water. He soon afterwards
became violently sick and vomited
freely. He then was taken with a
chill. John Carpenter came by in his
wagon and took the two gentlemen
to his home, about a mile north OF
Cortland. On Prof. Thornbrough's
urgent request, Mr.. Carpenter pre-
pared a bed in his springswagon, as
best he could, and brought him to
Butler, accompanied by Prof. Hen
derson. When he reached home, DR..
Foster was summoned and admins
tered RESERVATIONS. The doctor said
his pulse was strong, and while he
was apparently greatly exhausted,
there were no evidences OF serious
trouble. DR.. Foster then left and
did not see him again, until after he
was dead. He thinks death due to
exposure and over-exertion.
Prof. Thornbrough was prominen
in school work in Bates county. he
was candidate before the Republi.
can convention last spring for Couu'
ty School Superintendent and ca me
within few votes OF the nomination,
He was very popular with his pupils
and all the teachers and his sudden
death cast q gloom over ouI
schools and the entire community.
Prof. Thornbrough was Chancellor
Commander OF Blue Flag Lo dgt
Knights Of Pythias, and was buried
under the auspices Of that order
Rev. Joel Barker preached the iunera
sermon at the Ohio street NJ. E

Publicity and the Bryan Fund.

All good citizens will approve Mr.
Bryan's recommendation that, in rails
ing a fund for the expenses of his re
ception in New York, no contribution
of So or more be received without MAX
ing a record of the donor, with the I'M
derstanding that the name will be Civ
en- to anyone desiring to know it.
This is a practical step toward that
publicity in campaign contributions
which would be so great a purifier OF
American politics, if its practice were
universal
If it could be made compulsory to
keep and publish lists of all donations
of more than 50 or SO made to the
campaign funds of the several political
parties. the practice might have some
surprising results.
Its first effect would, of course be to
shut off corrupt contributions. made by
corporations or individuals, with the
expectation of getting the money back
many times multiplied, in favors from
the successful party.
On the other hand, it might encour-
age many honest partisans, earnestly
desiring the success of their party, to
contribute to it's success by supplying
means for the propagation of its prin-
ciples.
The list of campaign contributors
ought to become a roll of honor, on
which any good citizen should be proud
TO see his name published.

How This Trouble May Be Readily
Corrected


You are drowsy, heavy, loggy,, lack
energy-every eXertion is an effort
your head is not clear and it is hard
to think, you have full and oppressed
feeling in your stomach and bowels
all your limbs and body ache,-infact,
life seems hardly worth living under
such conditions. Ask yourself, DO
your bowels move regularly" If you
feel as above your answer will be"No'
that is the cause of your troubles. If
not properly corrected this condition
will lead to much more serious dis
orders of the blood and body due to the
poisons in the waste matter which
should be promptly carried off. And it
seems so foolish to suffer when nature
has provided her own wholesome and
certain remedy in the pure mineral
laxitive water-Hunyadi Janos-from
the famous springs in Hungary. y a
tumberful of this wonderful water
drunk on arising in the morning
(sIightly warmed for best results) will
give you within an hour a delightfully."-
pleasant and .copious movement. This
will clear your head, sharpen your
appetite and make a new man of you.
