LEXINGTON GIRL
IN PRETTY ROMANCE

Washington, Oct. 19.-Mary II
Blanton, pretty nineteen-year-old
girl from Lexington, Va, beamed
with delight at the local marriage
counter late yesterday afternoon as
she acknowledged she was springing
surprise on her folks by coming
to Washington to be married to He'd
ley McNeer Bowen, son of a wealthy
coal operator of Bramwell, W. Va.
Rev. Wallace Radcliffe united the
couple at his residence.
'Oh, yes, my people knew my ap-
preaching marriage" said the bride,
'but they don't expect it so soon. I
have been visiting in another town
and came from there to Washington.
There are no objections to our mar
riage, but we planned surprise"

POLITICS BOILING
IN OLD ROCKINGHAM
Developments Come Thick and
Fast in Spirited Campaign

Harrisonburg, Va, Oct. 20.-The
political. merry-go-round is going
some in old Rockingham county.
The four-cornered fight for Treas
urer holds the center of the stage.
Keezell today announced his cam
paign expenses as $50 and hopes to
more than recover that amount in
the $4,000 libel suit against the
Daily News. Dispositions are being
taken by the lawyers for the News
and the public is waiting with a
great expectancy for the published
results.
Congressman James Hay, with To-
cal candidates, is making nightly
pleas for harmony at the various pre-
cincts. "Jim" Hay is telling the fell
lows about the walloping Woodrow
Wilson or some one else is going to
administer to the Republicans next
year, and he tells that this is no
time for quarreling in the ranks.
T. L. Williamson, the independ-
ent Democrat, who says that the Kee-
zell-Conrad machine bulldozed him
out of a direct primary, is making
a personal canvass throughout the
county.
Peter Reherd, the regular Repub-
lican, is hoping to ride into office
on the back of the Democratic dis
cussion.
Paul Rhinehart, the out and out
Independent, is working like a Tro-
jan. His candidacy knocks him out
of the post Office job at Lacey Spring,
but he hopes that his wife, who is
an applicant, will keep it in the fam
lily. But Postmaster General Hitch
cock refers all such matters to John
Paul, who wants Reherd for Treas
urer, and will hardly see his way
clear to keeping the job in the Rhine
hart family.
The three newspapers are wag
ing a frantic campaign. The Rec
ord, Keezell's new paper, is fighting
hard against the Times, which is Re-
publican, and is against the News,
the Williamson" Democrats.
A humorous feature is the fact
that the News never refers to any,
thing that the Record has to say. 1t
appears to be policy of the News
never to mention the Record, never
to reply to it's charges and never an
swer a question.
The Record almost daily attacks
Smythe, the chief owner of the News,
and Robertson, the editor. But the
News never replies.
Nobody knows who is going to
win. Rockingham has never been
in such a state of turmoil as at pres
ent.

Mississippi State Fair

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 23.-On the
eve of the opening of the Mississippi
State Fair all signs point to the larg-
est and most complete exhibition of
the kind ever given in this state. The
last of the exhibits was installed to-
day and everything is in readiness
for the opening ceremonies tomor-
row. Every department is well fill
ed, but especially notable will be the
display of live stock and horticulture
al and agricultural products. The
annual convention of the State poul-
try association, live stock association
bee keepers, swine breeders and 9TH
er organizations are expected to add
largely to the attendance of visitors
during the week.

John r. Walsh Had Been Re-
leased from Government
Prison a Few Days Ago
HEART DISEASE THE CAUSE
Family at His Bedside as Former
Finarcier Dies Peacefully in His
Home at Chicago

Chicago, Oct. 29.-John R. Walsh,
former banker, publisher and rail-
road owner, released a week ago
from the Leavenworth federal peni-
tentiary, died today of heart disease.
Mr.. Walsh had been in bed most
of the time since his arrival here
from Leavenworth, Oct. Is. He had
been attended constantly by physi-
clans.
Intermittent reports of Mr.. Walshs
failing health during his incarcera-
tion had been denied at the peniten-
tiary On his release it was plain
that he had aged and he gave up
plans for resumption of his position
as financial leader, and took to his
bed.
Death Due to Worry.
Members of his family today ex-
pressed the belief that the bankers
death was directly due to morbid
brooding over his condition. They
say he was greatly affected by the
long confinement, at his advanced
age, and when released, his consti-
tuition was not strong enough to
meet the shocks of seeing familiar
faces and being with his family again
During the last few days, it was said,
the financier had been fretting and
worrying over business matters.
John R. Walsh's troubles began
when he was charged with wrecking
three Chicago banks under his con-
troll in a fruitless effort to bolster up
his tottering enterprises in other di-
rections. He was sentenced to five
years in the Federal penitentiary at
Fort Leavenworth on March 13,
1908.
By series of appeals he postpon-
ed the beginning of his term until
January, 1910, when the United
States Supreme Court refused to
grant writ of certiorari and Walsh
entered the prison on the Goth of
that month.
There were 1872 counts in the in
dictment handed down against the
banker, of which twenty-five were
annulled on a demurrer before the
trial began He finally was convicted
of fifty counts on January 10, 1908.
When he began his five year SEN
tence two years later he was sew
enty-three years old.
