DANA miller CANE TO
DEATH BY HIS OWN HAND
His Mind Was
Temporarily
Unbalanced

The sorrow and gloom occasioned
here by the announcement of the SUD-
den death Of Dana Miller at Charles
ton will be deepened a hundred fold
when 1t is known that his death came
by his own hand. Temporary insanity
Is given as the only possible cause as
It was known to his associates for sew
eral days before the occurrence that
Mr. Miller was not exactly himself.
On the morning Of the terrible deed
friend had called at Mr.. Miller's
room and asked him to accompany
him to church. Mr.. Miller refused
and asked that the friend should re-
main with him. The request however,
was not granted, The visitor noticed
at the time that Mr.. Miller had finish
ed shaving and his razor was lying
open on the dresser. During the day
several friends visited him at his
room and at seven o'clock Mr.. Charles
Mcwhorter went to the room and
found Mr.. Miller lying in front Of The
dresser, with ais throat cut from ear
to ear. 1t is thought that in the state
Of mind in which he was in, the sight
Of the razor had crazed him.
Everybody who knew Dana NEef
is firm in the belief that the act was
the result of insanity, for no other
reason could possibly be assigned. Just
out of college, leaving clean record
behind him as student and standing
on the threshold Of what promised to
be a useful life, surrounded by the
love and devotion Of his honored faith

reason in tae world while his pronls.

Illinois. Joseph B. Gill, lieuten-
ant governor of Illinois when Alt-
geld was governor, and for many
years one of the leading democrats
of Illinois, today announced that
he had decided to go over to the

Mr.. Gill states that the democratic
party has been steadily disinte-
grating since it began taking on
populistic principles several years
ago. while the republican party
has absorbed all that was good in

1t Went.

When a perfectly strange woman
came for the soiled clothes three
weeks ago the mistress of the house
came to the conclusion that her own
laundress had simply employed a
new messenger, and made nc com
ment on the circumstances. But when
two weeks had gone by, and still the
old laundress-known az Susan, no
last name having been mentioned
did not appear, the mistress of the
house felt that she would be lacking
in her duty il she did not make some
inquiry about her. Where is Susan?"
she asked the tall and bony structure
who came for the clothes. "She has
gone to Pennsylvania to live, yes
sum-" returned this person, with COM
posure. "She went to Pennsylvania
some time ago, an she lef' good-by
fer yuh, but s'long es yuh didn't seem

why didn't she come and tell me and

Gov. Beckham, of Kentucky,
and Gov. Warner, of Michigan,
have, this week, decided to attend
the Deep Waterways convention
at Memphis, October 4th and 9Th.
Twenty three governors have &C
cepted invitations and will be in
attendance. Col. Henry Water
son, the distinguished Kentucky
editor, has also signihed.:his in
tention to be present. The result
of this convention will be of the
greatest Importance to the people
of the middle west. 1t is to be
hoped that the project of a deep
waterway from the "Lakes to the
Gulf" is feasible and that steps
will be taken to push the work of
development as fast as possible.
Speaking of the great Importance
to the people of the Mississippi
valley, of the development OF. the
Deep Waterway, John Barrett,
Director of the International Blu
reau of American Republics, says:
1.-THE great Middle Wet will con-
troll the trade of the entire west
coast of South America when the
Panama Canal is completed, pro-
viding the deep waterway from
the lakes to the gulf is constSu Ct
ed; otherwise it will be Japan,
Germany and England which will
exercise commercial sway over
this vast empire to be opened up.
1t is not excessive to estimate the
value of products which these re-
publics will then be purchasing
from foreign countries at $500, 900,
600. The major portion of these
supplies will come from America
if the great manufacturing centers
of the Middle West are provide d
with water transportation. Boats
or barges loaded in Chicago, Jol-
let, St. Louis or other points in
this district will make the entire
trip"

The visit of Rev.. Jacob Ditzler,
D. D., of Louisville, KY, to the
Methodist congregation in this
city last Sunday was very greatly
appreciated by everybody who
heard him. The house was full at
both services. The Rev. DitzleE
is one of the most profound schol-
ars in this country, and it ia
doubtful if he has an equal in pull
pit ability on the continent. His
sermon Sunday at II A. M. on
"Christianity vs Infdelity" wat
in every sence a mastery presen'
tation of the facts of our holy re.
ligion. His sermon Sunday even

power. The visit of this grea'
man to our city will be long re-
membered by all who heard him
