WAS A PROMINENT STATESMAN

Dubuque. Iowa. Aug. 4.--United States Senator, W. B. Allison died at his home In this city this afternoon.
 The immediate cause of his death was heart failure. The end came as a result of a serious sinking spell due to prostatic enlargement, complicat- ed with kidney disease. and during a period of inconsistencies which hau lasted since Saturday afternoon.
 Two weeks ago the Senator left his home in the city to escape the heat He went to the home of Mrs. Fannie the Asbury road a few miles from town. For a few days his condition seemed to improve, but he later be- gan to grow worse. Medical advisers urged that an operation be perform ed to relieve the prostatic enlargement which was bringing his condition to q crisis.
 Saturday morning. the Senator was brought back home. Soon afterwards he relapsed Into condition of semi consciousness. Except for brief periods of partial recovery, he remain ed in this condition until death came this afternoon.
 News of the serious illness of the aged Senator was kept from the public as much as possible until his death came as a surprise to the thousands of friends residing In this city Only the more intimate friends of the fam fly were aware of his critical condi- tton.
 No arrangements for the funeral have yet been made.

ON THE COAST OF MAINE.

1t is amazing how things grow on the
Maine coast-fruits, vegetables, all kinds
of farm products and then, the fish along
shore are wonders At high tide little
strip of an acre or two down by the water
is overfowed. When the tide goes out it
leaves a lot of pools clear as crystal, In
which we find Holsters, corals, sponges,
anemones and other sea plants, saying
nothing of ever changing rainbow pic
lures left on the rocks, printed there by
the peculiar action of the submarine
chemicals. Fish are almost as cheap as
air. We get delicious clans delivered at
our door for twenty-five cents bushel,
and you can buy fresh cod as big as a
baby for fifteen cents apiece. The seen
cry is a perpetual surprise, with pine
groves stretching away in the back
ground, while the entire water front and
the rockbound indentations with bays
and sparkling streams, together with the
wonderful, balmy pine scented air, are
an inspiration. There is nothing be-
tween my yard and Europe except the
sea and few waves and fish. It's the
ideal place for the best work of ones
life. You can sleep of nights the per-
feet sleep of childhood. Sickness is hard
ly known. John Kendrick Bangs,

Every woman and every man desires beauti-
full hair. And everyone may have it if they
will but give it proper and attention.
The first and all important step toward the

free from dandruff.

been offered for the removal of dandruff, and

some good.

Hear We the call from the hill,
The maize -mantled hill, and the plain;
Hearts of oak, be with us still,
Men of Maine,
Men of the State of Maine?"
Voice of yon brother, and son,
Voices of sister and wife,
Keeping the faith the fathers won
On the red-steeped roods of strife;
And thew cry, the West to the East,
Out of their sweat and their strain,
"For the great still direct, and the least,
Men of Maine
Men of the State of Maine!'
Hank to the rumble afar!
Tread of the foresters' feet,
Tramp of the scotsman, and tar,
Sullen as night drums abeat;
And chanty swels up on the air,
A foresong of battle and pain,

Union Harvest Grange Fair

CENTER MONTyILLE, Oct. 4, 1908. At
one of the meetings of Union Harvest
Grange about three weeks ago the sub
iect Of having a grange fair was brought
IN and discussed. The following week
it was decided to hold fair on Oct. list.
Although the time TO prepare for 1t was
short, the telephone was brought INTO
use and all were invited to bring such
exhibits as they had The day was favor
able, being cool and bright, and the ram
the previous Tuesday having laid the
dust it was an ideal day for fair. The
people responded promptly and genef-
ously, and before 10 a. m. three long
tables in the dining room were more than
filed with as fine display of fruits and
vegetables as could be found anywhere.
The canned fruits and jellies looked very
tempting. Traces of corn decorated the
walls and baskets of enormous potatoes,
squash, pumpkins, turnips and cabbages
filled the space beneath the tables.
Mrs. Walter Poland exhibited her beau
tiful maltese cat, which was one OF her
wedding presents. This cat took red
ribbon at the Boston cat show last year
and this year received a blue ribbon.
Mrs Carrie Nickerson also showed three
very pretty long-haired kittens.
In the hall above potted plants and cut
flowers and ferns decorated the stage,
and three long tables We're filled with a
great variety Of fine needle work. The
walls, and lines stretched across the hall,
were filled with rugs and quilts Of every
description. The quantities of beautiful
work exhibited was surprise to every
one, ard it could have been seen to better
advantage if there had been more room.
Mr.. and Mrs. Winfield Lunt had very
pretty exhibit of wood and metal work.
Mr. John Tibbetts had three pieces of
wood carving that were nicely done.
In stalls outside were more than sixty
head Of cattle; also many horses, colts,
sheep and pigs. There were several coops
of poultry. The secretary's report will
give the list of exhibits and prizes. The
f air was we'll attended, not only by the
towns people, but many came from the
surrounding towns, and it was considered
quite a success, so much so that they are
already talking of having another fair
next year.

TAFT WILL RIDE
IN AUTOMOBILES
Presldent-EIect FaVors Purchase of
Motor Cars and Asks Officer of
War Department to Make
Selection

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 2S.-More
than passing interest attaches to the
official announcement made today that
after March 4 the automobile will be
the official vehicle at the White House.
AS is well known, President-elect Taft,
unlike President Roosevelt, is fond of
riding in an automobile, on account of
the ease with which it can be made
ready and the speed with which it can
take him anywhere he pleases to go.
An officer of the war department,
whose name is kept secret until GER
tain plans can be formulated, and VINO
is said to be an authority on automo-
biles, has been detailed to select two
cars for Mr.. Taft and his family for
delivery after March 4, payment for
same to be made from the public treas
ury. The president-elect has not sig
nifled his preference for any particular
make of car. and the officer commas
stoned will inform automobile manu-
facturers of the general type OF car
wanted. and they can make bids Tor
furnishing two of them. The competl-
ton promises to be very lively, as TINS
is the first time on record that an
automobile will be used by president
of the United States, to the exclusion
of the horse drawn vehicles used by
all his predecessors, and it will not
only give the manufactures who is
lucky enough to be chosen considerable
prestige. but will likewise give big
boost to the automobile industry.
While President Roosevelt has occa-
sionally used automobiles, particularly
during the summer seasons spent at
oyster Bay, he has consistently re-
trained from purchasing one for the
White House stables. Today, in COM
pany with Mrs. Roosevelt. he made a
trip in a White steamer belonging to
the war department to Alexandria. Va,
to witness some school games in which
his youngest son competed.
