Mrs. Cleveland ColIapses.

At once after her husbands death Mrs. Cleveland collapsed. It marked the end of her terrific struggle which had been waged for years in the in- terests of her husbands health. How ever, she soon rallied.
 While MT. Cleveland's condition was naturally rugged, it had been weakened by disease. lie had suf- fered from kidney and intestinal trou- bles
 The Cleveland children were noti- fled Wednesday morning and are hur- rying to Princeton. They have been at Tamworth, N H., with Mrs Cleve- lands mother Mrs. Perrine. So san- guine were the family over the con- dition of Mr. Cleveland that it was not even thought advisable to keep the children at home.
 The death of the former president Wednesday ends one of the most stub- born fights for life ever chronicled
 For many years MT. Cleveland had suffered, and in that time there had been many rumors of his approach ing death.
 When MT. Cleveland was removed from Lakewood to his Princeton res idence he was conveyed in a large touring car, owned by John Hays Hammond, the millionaire mining ex pert, who was a candidate for the vice presidential ticket.
 Mir. Cleveland looked weak and peaked, and the trip was made slow ly. MT. Cleveland at that time was attended almost constantly by Dr. G Rowe Lockwood.
 Ex President Cleveland had been invited to attend the conference oi governors at Washington, but was toe | ill to be present.
 Through the long fight for health | the one bright spot in the battle against disease were the devotion and untiring affection of Mrs. Cleveland She was constantly at her husbands bedside.
 There were times during MT. Cleve i lands recent illness that the attend ing physicians spent 72 hours at his 1 bedside For seven weeks his die consisted of nothing but milk ant eggs While MT. Cleveland was a ] Lakewood the rumor was circulated that he was suffering from cancer but this was denied.

COUNTY NEED NOT PAY.
Judge Goodland Rules That Cities and
Towns Must Settle Medical Bills
of Pauper Patients.

APPLETON, Wis, Jan. 17.-[Spe-
cial. IA decision handed by Judge John
Goodland in circuit court yesterday is of
Importance to every city and county in
the state, inasmuch as he has held that
in no case is the county liable for the
expense incurred in the treatment Of
smallpox or other contagious diseases,
but that it is the duty of the city phy-
stefan to care for the patient, if he is a
pauper, without extra charge.
The case results from the affair of an
Indian child, Frank DENNY, which was
brought from Milwaukee to the Chill
drens Receiving home in July, 1900,
and soon afterward came down with
smallpox. The home physician notified
the city physician, DR.. Robert Leith, who
removed the baby to the pest house and
later sent bill to the city council
amounting TO $275.17. The bill was for
$40 a visit for twenty-one calls and So
per day for nurse, 1857 for provisions.
The council paid the bill and then tried
to collect it from the county. The cOun-
ty board refused to pay and the city
brought suit to recover the amount.
For years it had been the custom for
cities to pay the city physician $40
when treating a smallpox case and in
turn collect the amount from the county.
Judge Goodland holds that it is the
duties of the cities, villages and towns TO
take care Of their own patients and that
the city physician can not collect extra
compensation for the same.

Chinese Justice.

A certain Chinese taoti (magistrate),
having told his men to have two ingots
of gold sent to his treasury for purchase,
the shopmen brought them in, and, in
answer to the query Of the taotai, told
him that the price was so much in taels,
but added: ''This is the ordinary price,
but for your honor we will knock off
one-half of the price"
Then the taotai said to his underlings:
"Seeing that they are to; sell to me at
only half price, just give them back one
ingot of gold, ana put the other in my
treasury, and thus their account is set
tied. Goodbye"
The underlings Of the yamen did So,
but still the shopmen hung around wait
ing. The taoti asked them why they
were waiting, when their account had
been already settled. Said the shopman:
when did your honor pay your humble
servantsY'
Then the magistrate answered with a
very fierce air: "Tiao nu ts'ai! Gmper-
tinent slaves.) Did you not say that
these two gold ingots were half price to
me? Then did 1 not give you back one
ingot and keep the other, and thus settle
your account without the least injustice,
according to your own proposition? So
be off with you Or my lictors will give
you taste Of the scourge"-Cleveland
Leader.

Just returning from a summer tour.
All the seats in the car were occupied,
but they seemed determined that he
should offer one of them his seat.
He screened himself behind his paper
and listened to plainly audible remarks
about the decline Of gallantry in the pres
ent age. This grated on his nerves, so
he arose, and with profound bow, adj
dressed the three.
"Will the oldest of you ladies honor me
by accepting my place"
Whereupon they became interested in

OCONOMOWOC SANITARIUM DE-
STROYED BUT PATIENTS
ALL ESCAPE.
WAS HISTORIC HILL MANSION.
House Erected by Railway Magnate
Thirty Years Ago, Became SAM

LOSS is ESTIMATED AT $4,000.

DELAFIELD, Wis, Jan. 16.-[Spec-
ial. ]-Oconomowoc Health Resort, a san
itarium on Nashotah lake opposite the
Nashotah Episcopal seminary, was to
tally destroyed by fire last night, causing
a loss of $4,000. The twenty-five pa
tents all escaped uninjured and are be-
ing cared for in neighboring farm houses.
Historic Hill Homestead
The burned building was the historic
Hill mansion which was erected more
than a generation ago by Mason M. Hill,
railway magnate. Last year the san
itarium company bought the place, put
in $4,000 in improvements and opened
it as a hospital under the direction of
DR.. A. w. Rogers, formerly associated
with DIR. Richard Dewey of Wauwatosa.
The sanitarium company is protected by
insurance and will probably rebuild in
the spring.
Starting just before o'clock from al
oyerheated furnace on the first floor. the
flames gained Roadway between parti-
lions and when the fire was discovered
nothing could be done, but to vacate the
quarters in short order. Under the di-
rection of DR.. Rogers a volunteer bucket
brigade composed Of farmers and others
fought the flames, but all to no purpose
The fire burned itself out and only a
mass of smouldering ruins marks the pile
of stone and brick that for years has
been one of the most imposing spectacles
of the famous OcOnOmowoc lake district
+ There was considerable excitement
among the patients, most of whom are
sufferers from nervous diseases, but there
was no panic. Residents carried the in

Pillar of Flame.
Situated high up on a hill overlooking
the lake, the pillar of flame could be
seen throughout the county and residents
within a radius of ten miles came to the
scene of the fire. Students at Nashotah
seminary were among those who hast
ened to the scene and joined in the futile
effort to quench the roaring flames
Members of the faculty and cadets from
st. Johns Military academy also were
on the ground.
Originally built as a palatial home in
the beautiful woods surrounding Lake
Nagawicka, the palace of Mason M. Hill
had not ben occupied for ten years until
last summer. when it was fitted up as a
sanitarium by company composed OF
several Milwaukeeans and eastern cap
italists. Adolph Spiegel is said to be
heavily interested in the company.
The Hill castle was built more than
thirty years ago, when Hill owned about
800 acres of land in the district. He had
occupied the building only a short time
when he died The property later fell
into the hands of the daughter of Mr..
Hill, whose husband was President Bar
nett of the Knickerbocker Trust company
of New York. Barnett committed sui
eide some time ago. For ten years the
property was for sale, large wooden
sign at the gate announcing the desire
of it's owners to dispose OF the great
structure. The building was three stor-
les high and had towers and battlements
that added to it's dignity.

FOND DU LAC, Wis, Jan. H.
Especial. &c. P. Cary, the state superin-
tendent of schools, addressed the
Womans club of this city this afternoon.
He said in part:
THE typical American is too excitable
for his own good. He has wrinkled
brows, tense muscles, high pressure
methods of business. This over-tension
use up all the reserve force and the
nervous system collapses in some try
ing moment. This over-tension is simply
a bad nabit we as a people have fallen
into, and have unfortunately come to ad-
mire.
Children Are Too Precocious.
"Our faxen-haired, nervous, over
tense children are crowded forward in
every way we can conceive of, both in
the school and in the home for the sake
Of showing off. Many a time have all
seen these mentally precocious young vic
Tins, particularly girls, late at night
upon the street cars, or in the home,
every muscle and every nerve a culver,
engaged in burning up their vital ener-
gieS. 1t is a sad fact that those pre-
cOciOus and promising children never
amount to much. They burn out their
energies and then drag along to the end
of life. Many time have we seen in
the school young girls with abnormally
developed brains, bounding up and down,
swinging their arms in an ecstasy as
nervous excitement, while the teacher
who was conducting the class beamed
with satisfaction at the performance
Some class exercises are very orgy

Protests Against Tension.
II am not talking against hard work,
only against the awful tension in our
work and in our pleasures. Our own
happiness and the welfare of the race,
both require that we change our habits
and our ideals in respect to the siren

coffee.

not give up coffee, as a cousin of mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But Mother was such a slave to coffee
she thoughtful would be terrible to
give it up. = 80
Finally, one day, she made the
change to Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning
