Mrs. Mamie Shealy
Has Passed Away.

A292o u exooSu
Mrs. Mamie Shealy, beloved wife of
hon. Frank w. shealy, clerk Of the
circuit court, closed her eyes on earth
~ scenes at about 7:15 O'Clock at her
home here yesterday evening at the
ake Of So years: The end was as
peaceful as the close of q beautiful
summer day, when daylight fades into
night with increasing loveliness.
Mrs. shealy was daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. George O. shirey, of Hollow
Greek, where she Was married on the
9Th OF March, 1895.
For the past several years Mrs.
Shealy's health Las not been good and
for the past four months she has been
confined to bed, bearing her weary
hours Of pain with the same wonder
full fortitude and gentle patience that
was characteristic of her entire life.
None but those who have sat in the
shadow Of a great bereavement can
justly weigh such a sorrow as this.
Those who have gone down into the
valley of suffering and stood for
months by the side of loved one, as
hope after hope dropped away as the
petals fall from facing flower, know
that such anguish cannot find solace
in the tenderest words. She who has
gone forth could not be supported on
her solitary path by any earthly
friend. The husband with devotion
few men are capable of, whose
strength was given sweetly, tenderly
to this precious inyalid. whose heroic
devotion never faltered, could not re-
tain her by the clasp of earthly love.
Mrs. Shealy was devoted member
Of old Lexington Baptist church, and
was consi stent Christian.
While she was of very retiring ma
ture and found her chief happiness in
her family circle and homelife, Mrs.
Shealy was one Of the best known and
best loved women in Lexington coun-
ty, being as much admired.and loved
by the young people, as she was by
her contemporaries, and the older
ones.
Her character was a wonderful com.
bination Of strength and sweetness,
and she was a woman who drew her
friends close to her.
She is survived by her husband, her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. George O. Shi-
rey, two brothers, Clarence and Scott
Shirey, three sisters, Mrs. J. Ansel
Caughman, Mrs, Rebecca Koon and
Mrs. DR.. o. G. Holley, Of Summit,
Ga.; and one adopted daughter, Miss
Hattie Shealy, Of Lexington.
The burial will take place at Old
Lexington Baptist church, seventeen
miles from Lexington, tomorrow at II
O'Clock, the Rev. E. J. So1, of Little
Mountain, and the Rev. E. L. Ly-
brand. of Brookland, performing the
last sad rites.
The active pallbearers will be:

CHAIRMAN BARNES OF NEW YORK
POINTS OUT DANGER OF
ROOSEVELT PLATFORM.

New York, May William Barnes
Jr, chairman of the republican state
committee, today authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
This contest is one of principles not
OF men, II majority portion Of the
minority of an electorate in some state
have not comprehended the meaning
of the situation and have become In
fected by the personality of candidate
it does not in any way change the
situation, nor affect the duty Of the
delegates from the state Of New York
who will go to Chicago pledged to the
platform Of principles adopted by the
Rochester convention.
1T Is not surprising that In few
weeks campaign majority of the
republican electorate failed to compre-
hend what Mr.. Roosevelts assault on
republican principles means.
History is being made very fast
and those who are In the thick OF 4
rarely realize where they are going
Mr.. Roosevelt's platform which, II his
candidacy should be accepted, the re-
publican party must officially endorse,
Is the rule of the people without re-
striction through constitutional form.
Mr.. Roosevelt knows. as every other
student of history knows, that no demo-
cracy can endure on that basis and
that the people themselves are the
first to recognize this and turn to an
individual to rule them.
"The duty Of the republican dele
gates from New York has never been
more solemn, never more clear, never
more patriotic than at this very time,
when the needless and thoughtless are
willing to take the initial step for the
overthrow of the American constitu-
ton with its honored guarantees to
each citizen that he can be protected
through the courts from the aggression
OF the government, the majority or a
single Individual.
IT repeat what I said the other day,
that the contest at Chicago will be be-
tween mental courage and physical
cowardice."

KEOKUK CITY
OFFICIAL SHOT
TIMOTHY HICKEY WOUNDED BY
WILLIAM DUNN, WHO is
NOW UNDER ARREST

Keokuk, May 29.-It was announced
early today that Timothy Hickey, the
we'll known southern Iowa politician
and now city commissioner, will re-
cover from wounds received last
night. Hickey, while walking along a
street. was shot twice and seriously
injured. William Dunn, a relative OF
the injured man, Is said to have done
the shooting and was arrested 1mme'
diately. Hickey and Dunn are said to
have quarrelled several times during
the past few weeks. Both bullets en-
tered Hickeys body and inflicted
serious wounds. Dunn accidentally
shot himself in the knee but was not
seriously injured.
William A. Buchanan, pedestrian
was the only person near the
scene Of the shooting. Hickey, he
says, passed him and spoke to him as
they passed, while Dunn, who was evl
IDENTIFY lurking in nearby stairway
rushed out to meet Hickey. Buchan'
ans back was turned to the men and
his attention was first attracted to the
attempted murder when Dunn fired
the first shot. The men had clinched
and Hickey, who is much larger than
his assailant, was crushing Dunn to
earth. The other was struggling and
firing into Hickey's body.
Four Shots Are Fired.
Four shots were fired by Dunn, one
of which entered the assailant's knee
while the men were wrestling. Hickey
received three wounds, one taking
effect in the left side and the other
two In the left arm.
Pedestrians were attracted by the
shooting and rushed upon the strug
Cling men. Dunn was dragged from be-
meath Hickey and the revolver
knocked from his grasp. Hundreds OF
people were attracted by the shooting
but none OF the local police force ap'
peared. The shooting occurred on
Fifth street, block from the police
station. The shots were heard by men
in the station.
Jealousy May Be Cause.
What caused the shooting is un'
known. The only cause assigned be-
ing that Dunn held grievance against
Hickey because his former wife, Mrs
Dunn, is housekeeper for Hickey, who
is a widower. She was divorced from
Dunn few years ago. Commissioner
Hickey has long been known as a
democratic political boss in Keokuk
and Lee county, where he has been
a prominent political figure for num-
Der Of years He was elected as one
of the three councilmen of Keokuk
under the commission form Of govern
ment at the election last April.
