Henry Clews did not think the views OF

proynl of Wall street lie said: There
are signs that the people are tired OF the
sort OF radicallsm OF which Roosevelt has
now assumed the lead. The country does
not want revolutionary proposals, but pre-

The administration policy may NOT

APOPLEXY WAS
>CAuSEOf DEATH

Silas F.. Black came to his death Sat.
urday morning by a hemorrhage in
the brain, according to the verdict OF
the coroner's jury Saturday. 1t was
shown to the jury that Black had had
no fight and that his face bruises were
caused by his falling to the sidewalk.
The jury also found that the stroke
of apoplexy caused the fall. Coroner
Slaught states that the hemorrhage
was Of "seeping' kind where the dis.
charge from the blood vessel is small
and intermittent. He states that the
post norton disclosed a great amount
Of blood in the brain cavity. Bruises
on the skull were not in evidence,
bearing out the fact that he was not
struck by anyone. The verdict Of the
jurymen, B. w. Van Der Veer, John
F. Rugg and Byron A. Barlow, was in
substance that the deceased came to
his death Saturday morning between
the hours of seven and eight and that
the cause was a hemorrhage into the
brain, known in medical science as
apoplexy.
Funeral services over the remains
were held yesterday afternoon at 2
o o'clock at the home of Joseph Coots on
Grove street, conducted by Rev, M. I.
Gordon pastor of the African NJ. E.
church. Burial was made in the Qttum-
wa cemetery. ~ ~ ."H..-

be lowered into the water was,

be lowered into the water was, l
should estimate, about twenty feet.
Mr.. Carter and I did not get into the
boat until after they had begun to
lower itaway. When the boat reached
the water I helped row it, pushing the
car from me as sat. This is the ex-
PLANTATION of the fact that my back
was to the sinking steamer. The boat
would have accommodated certainly
six or more passengers in addition II
there had been any on the boat deck
to go.
"These facts can be substantiated
by w. E. Carter of Philadelphia. who
got in at the time that I did and was
rowing the boat with me. hope I need
not say that neither Mr.. Carter nor
myself would for one moment" have
thought Of getting into the boat ii
there had been any women there to
go in it. nor should I have done so If
I had thought that by remaining on
the ship I could have been of the
slightest further assistance.
Courte Investigation.
1T Is impossible for me to answer
every false statement, rumor or inven-
ton that has appeared in the news
papers. am prepared to answer any
questions that may be asked by the
committee of the senate or any other
responsible person. I shall therefore
make no further statement OF this
kind. except to explain the messages
that I sent from the Carpathia. These
messages have been completely mis-
understood.
can inference has been drawn from
them that I was anxious to avoid the
senate committees inquiry which 1t
was intended to hold in New York. AS
matter of fact. when dispatching
these messages I had not the slight
est idea that any inquiry was contem-
plated and l had no information re-
garding it until the arrival Of the Car
pathia at the Cunard dock In New
York on Thursday night when was
informed by Senator's Smith and New
lands of the appointment of the spe-
cial committee to hold the inquiry.
"The only purpose I had in sending
these messages was to express my de-
sire to have the crew returned to their
homes in England for their own bene-
fit at the earliest possible moment,
and also was naturally anxious to re-
turn to my family, but LETT the mat
ter of my return entirely to our repre-
sentatives in New York.
Hope Of Safe Ship Futile.
IT deeply regret that am compelled
to make any personal statement when
my whole thought Is on the horror Of
the disaster. In building the Titanic, it
was the hope of my associates and my,
self that we had built a vessel which
could not be destroyed by the perils OF
the sea or the dangers Of navigation.
The event has proved the futility OF
that hope.
"The present legal requirements
have proved inadequate. They must be
changed: but whether they are
changed or not this awful experience
has taught the steamship owners of
the world that too much reliance has
been placed on water tight compart-
ments and on wireless telegraphy.
and that they must equip every vessel
with life boats and RATS sufficient to
provide for every soul on board. and
sufficient men to handle them"

HILLss ORC.

While still young her parents moved
to Ohio, and later to Illinois. They
were pioneers in the then far west and
sturdy people they were. In Illinois
she met her future husband, Washing
ton M. Caller, and they were married
in 1850, union which lasted for over
a half century, till his death In 1905.
Mr.. and Mrs. Caller soon moved to
Iowa and lived for few years in Sal
EN- then moved to Hillsboro, which
was their home ever since. For fifty
years Mrs. Caller went in and out be-
fore this community, her hands ever
busy. her heart ever filled with min
istry of good deeds, her mind ever
alert to know and to learn the things
of this world and the important things,
OF the kingdom that Is to come.
Mrs. Caller was the mother Of six
children. two OF whom died in infancy.
Other four who survive are Mrs. Clara
Smith of Libby, Mont, Mrs. Ella Car.
ter of Hillsboro and Mrs. Queen Allen
and r. S. Caller OF Mt. Pleasant. The
latter three were with her at the end.
Mrs. Caller enjoyed excellent health up
to the last week Of her life and eagerly
looked forward to the coming Of spring
when she intended returning to Hills
boro to spend the season with her
daughter, among the many old friends
whom she remembered SO well and
whom she held so dear. It was de.
creed otherwise. Her last years had
been made sunny and the descending
path of life made easy by the loving
ministrations Of her relatives and sur
rounded by all the comforts that this
world can supply. Gently she travel
ed down the slope that leads to the
silent river, the west all golden with
the happiness Of friends here and the
tinge Of sunlight on, the hills beyond.
Only week Of failing health, of the
failure of that loving heart to perform
its usual duty and the long journey OF
ninety years closed peacefully ana
painlessly at noon Of brilliant Easter
Sunday. Nature was TYPICAL OF her
closing hours. No cloud In the sky
and the sun shining in warmth ana
splendor over all the earth.
Mrs Caller was remarkable In BODY
and mind. She was clear thinker
and often pondered on the great prcb.
lens Of human life, duty and destiny.
Her heart was warm, her impulse gen.
erous. her life noble, and benedic-
ton to her from her friends and the
community. Earth is poorer, but hea-
ven richer for her presence. Sc is at
rest. No storms can summon nei
from her slumber, no sickness ever
trouble her peaceful breast, no acct
dent deprive her of the glorious record
she made SO absolutely on earth
Contributed.
Mrs. Lucinda Callers maiden name
was Kellogg, and she was born in
Nn.y vorL s{ato in 1890 Had she ljy.
ed three months longer she would
have attained the ripe old age of 80
years. 1t was long life full of good
deeds and intense activity for her
hands never wearied with life's duties
and her heart was always warm ana
ysvng.
