CHARLES SELLERS DEAD.
Prominent and Well Known Farmer of
Vienna Township Dies Of Tubercu-

Charles f. Sellers, one of the very
well known and prominent farmers of
Vienna township, died at his home two
and one half miles north of Green
Mountain Friday afternoon at o'clock
of tuberculosis of the lungs. Mr.. Sci
lers has been sick with the disease for
two years In the hope that perhaps
a change of climate might stop the adj
vancement of the disease Mr.. Sellers
went to Fairhope, Ala, last fall, re-
naming until March 1. As the change
apparently did no good and as it was
evident that the end was not far dis
tant, he returned home to die. Since
his arrival he has been confined to his
bed all of the time. Charles Sellers
was not only one of the well known
farmers of Vienna, but he was equally
we'll liked and took a prominent part in
the social and other affairs of his
neighborhood and township.
Charles Fleming Sellers was born in
Mercer county, Illinois, Dec. 3, 1850. He
came to Iowa with his parents, who
settled in Hardin county in 1857. The
family moved to Marshall county and
took up it's residence on farm in
Vienna township in 1870 where the de-
ceased has ever since lived. In 1880 he
married Miss Emma Moler, daughter
of Henry Moler, of this city, who sur
wives him. He also leaves three chill
dren, Florence and Burt Sellers and
Mrs. Fred Cram. the latter of Cedar
Falls, and three brothers, James, Ed
ward and George Sellers. James lives
in Green Mountain and Edward in
Vienna township, while George resides
in this city.
The funeral will be held from the

DEATH BY SUICIDE
Such is Alleged to Be Case in Death
Of Mrs. Sadie Hays Russell, Form
erly of This city-Body Arrives
Here for BuriaI-certificat Gives
Pneumonia as Cause.

Mrs. Sadie Hays Russell, wife of
Harry Russell and daughter of Mrs.
Ida Hays, of 40S East Nevada street,
died at the Methodist hospital in Des
Moines at 800 Friday night. The GER
tificate of death assigns pneumonia as
the cause of death, but word to- the
T-R from Des Moines this afternoon
affirms that the young woman's death
was due to self administered poison.
The Des Moines message is to the
effect that Mrs. Russell, who has not
borne good reputation in Des Moines.
became respondent over her Maynard
career and about ten days ago swal-
lowed q dozen anti-septic tablets, prob
ably some mercurial preparation, in an
effort to end her life. She was taken
TO the hospital where she died Friday
night.
Sadie Hays was married in this city
last November to Harry Russell, and
has since been making her home in
Des Moines. She was 90 years of age,
and considered fine looking woman.
The body was brought to this city this
morning and the funeral will be held
from the Hays home, 40S East Nevada
street, Sunday afternoon ait $3.50, Rev.
e. w. Bowers, officiating. Interment
will follow at Riverside. Mrs. Russell
is survived by her husband, mother,
father and two sisters. The sisters
are Mrs. Hiram Stump, Of this city
and Mrs Arthur Rosenbrook of Des
Moines. The father lives at Huron,

According to her own accounting,
sIm of $1,000, 600. 900. This does not
include what she has lost in territory
or domestic disturbances. buH simply
the expense involved in her military
and naval operations. 1t is interesting
to p this with the strain upon
h resources Of France as a result Of
the FrancO-German war. The losses
incident to that conflict. the Com
mune and the ceSSiOn Of the eastern
districts to Germany. have been esti-
mated at between three and four bill
lions of dollars. Comparatively a small
share Of this is to be credited to the
bare cost of the war itself. because that
lasted but a few weeks, while the con-
f1ct that Russia Waged was continued
over many month So Russia would
not seem to be in as bad a condition as
was France, yer including all that she
suffered in her numerous and deStruc-
tive domestic outbreaks. On the other
hand. while she has more colossal ma
tural than France. they are
largely ~undeveloped. and she lacks the
developers: that thrifty. conservative
and patriotic class that came to the
rescue of their country in distress with
their savings. Moreover, while Count
Witte might steer as firm a course as

there's the rub. Theirs made his peo-
