GLIRA BlRTlII
FOUNDER OF RED CROSS sue.
cuMRs 10 DISEASE KNOWN
AROUND The GLOBE

n
WASHINGTON. D. c., April 49,
Miss Clara Barton. founder Of the
American Red Cross society, died al
her home In Glen Echo, Md. yester.
day. The cause OF her death was
chronic pneumonia with which she
was stricken about a year ago. Her
brother, Stephen Barton, Of Poster
was with her when she died.
Miss Barton had been confined to
her home, Red Cross Glen Echo
since last fall when she returned from
visit to New England. 1t was
thought her trip was beneficial but
soon atterward she was taken severe
ly III.
She celebrated her nlnetieth birth
day anniversary December 20, when
she received many messages Of con
graduation from all parts of the
world.
Clara Barton might properly be
called the Florence Nightingale Of
America. Like her British prototype
her works OF mercy were not con-
fined to her native land, but were car
ried even into the Eastern Hemis.
phere.
Miss Barton was forty years of age
when she first turned her attention
10 the great works OF humanity which
have made her name famous. Her
experience as n school teacher gave
her the experience which made her
a commanding figure in the direction
of Red Cross affairs.
That organization was established
in America in 1881, and Miss Barton
was It's president from that date until
1874. Before that time she had made
name for herself BY her services on
battienelds beginning in the Civil
war and extending through the Fran
co!Prussian war.
Miss Barton's, work became more
extended with the organization of the
American Red Cross, and covered the
rev field of catastrophles in time Of
peace.

delegates came. from Dix counties, in
only two Of which Tab secured dele
gates, These two counties have been
counted among the very strongest Of
the supposed Taft list, and m'only one
of the six did the President receive
a majority of the delegates selected
to both the congressional and State
delegate conventions. OF the sixteen
delegates to the Chicago national con-
yention, six of them viii be selected in
the State delegate convention on May
16, while the five congressional dis

Five counties will select delegates
ON Saturday. There are Cabell with

strong fight is being made in Cabel

servative Roosevelt follower familiar
with conditions, is not willing to adj

one.third OF the 10 delegates. About
one.half Of the delegates will be Sc
lected on April 26, when some twenty
odd counties make their selections,
while the balance will be chosen be-
tween that and the 9th.
In Fayette and. cabelI counties the
fight will be the 7fiercest on Saturday.
In these two the Taft followers hope
