JULIA WARD HOWE DIES
AUTHOR OF "6ATTLE HYMN OF
THE REPUBLIC"
Noted Woman Expires in Her Rhode
Island Home at the Age of
Of Ninety-one Years.

Middletown, r. lone of the
erable Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, poet
and patriot and staunch advocate of
human liberty everywhere, passed
peacefully away at her summer home,
"Oak Glen" in Middletown. Death
was due to pneumonia. She was in
her ninety-first year. Just before
losing consciousness Mrs. Howe spoke
of the home for deaf mutes which
her husband founded in Boston and
she repeated some words of the Bat
tie Hymn of the Republic" which she
wrote and which immortalized her
name. Burial will be in Mount Au-
burn cemetery, Cambridge.
Julia Ward Howe was born in New
York, May 81, 1919. Her education
was unusual for girl of that time.
She studied both Latin and Greek,
and before her marriage spoke French,
German and Italian. 1t was while
Julia Ward was in Europe in her
twenty-third year that she met DR..
Samuel Gridley Howe of Boston, who
established the first school for the
blind. They were married April IA,
1S43. Their six children attained
places of prominence in the scientific,
artistic and literary world. Mrs.
Howe quickly assumed leadership of
Boston's intellectual life and her home
became the center of the Hub. Men
: known to this generation as land
marks in the nations political and lit
ertary history, Sumer, Seward, Gar
rison, Longfellow, Emerson, were her
familiar friends. Following Doctor
Howe's death in 1876, Mrs. Howe de-
voted herself to religion and to liter
ature. She was ordained as a min
lister in the Unitarian church. Mrs.
Howe maintained her interest in the
woman suffrage problem, from the
time when she, as one of the first or
ganizers of the movement, gave 1t
great impetus, down to the last few
days of her life.

FURIOUS STORM SWEEPS CUBA
Causes Heavy Loss of Life and Mil
lions of Dollars of Property DAM
age-Towns Are Destroyed.

Havana, Cuba. Swept by great
waves, lashed to fury by new hur-
ricane, Havana is under four feet of
water for a distance of nine blocks
from the sea wall along the northern
border of the city. Hundreds of lives
are believed to have lost Large build
ings in the path of the storm have
been blown down and vessels in the
harbor have been torn from their
moorings. The loss throughout the
island may reach millions. Although
all wires to the interior of the island
are down it is known that the hurri-
cane has carried widespread devasta-
ton through Cuba. Postmaster Gen.
eral Nodars said that he had received
private advices that the towns of Mar
tinas, Duane, LaGrifa, Punta Cartes
and Cortes had been destroyed and
that the great part of Artemisa,
prosperous town on the boundary of
Havana province, was in ruins.
Thirty persons are reported dead at
Consolation Del Sur, where many
buildings were destroyed. 1t is be-
lieved that all the towns in the prov
inces of Pinar Del Rio have suffered
heavy losses with casualty lists which
may run into the thousands. The
storm is said to be abating in the in
terror. Six lighters loaded with mer-
chandise from the Saratoga, which ar
rived from New York City, cap
sized and are total loss. The
Alemendars river and other small
streams in the vicinity of this city
are out of their banks, flooding the
low lands and carrying off huts, barns
and cattle. Probably many people
lost their lives in these sections. Al
ready an alarming scarcity of food is
reported.

tisement brought her the husband, and
incidentally the fortune. Miss Adams
offered 5000 to any man who would

She explained she did not want the
man, but only the marriage certificate,
which she is to take back to Germany
to prove her claims to the fortune
Suitors came by the hundreds and
Miss Adams selected Henry oliver
Brown, a native of Warren county
Pa, building wrecker by profession
and heart wrecker by confession. The
hundreds of applicants were sifted
down to ten. Accompanied by a
woman reporter Eugene sat in an Of

United States.
"Second-That each of said parties
will Immediately separate, one from
the other, and under no consideration
or condition will either attempt to see,
visit, molest or annoy the other in any
way, shape or form thereafter.
Third That neither of said par
ties will solicit any aid or money or
any assistance, financial or otherwise
from the other in any way, shape or
form, nor will attempt to assert in any
way the marital rights"
Within two hours of the wedding,
which was performed by Magistrate

ever, the bride happily setting out for
Austria to claim her fortune and the
groom, with the 5000 premium tucked

CINCINNATI MAYOR USES Ak
.Dismisses Chief Because of Conditions
in City Police Department
Revealed by Probe.

Cincinnati, O.-Because of condi-
ttions in the police department re-
vealed by Safety Director Smalls in
yestigation of graft, Col Paul M. Mill
kin was dismissed from the office of
chief by Mayor Schwab. No mention
of Colonel Millikin as an alleged par.
taker of graft" had been made, but
the mayor held that he should have
been conversant with the conditions
and corrected them. Mayor Schwab
acted under recent decision of the
state courts at Sandusky. The chief
of the fire department there was re.
moved and both the common pleas
and circuits courts held that, mas.
much as the heads of departments
were under the supervision of the
mayor and safety director, they had a
right to remove.
