Chester. Pa, Feb. 1S.-The march
ing pilgrims bound from New York
to Washington had their first hostile
reception at Leiperville, a small viii
lage to the north of this city. They
were snowballed and almost routed by
crowd of small boys.
A squad of cavalry from the Penn

went to the rescue and escorted the
army to this city.
Despite the snow covered roads the
entire army managed to walk the en-

desertions were reported.
The trim appearance which had
been maintained by some of the
younger marchers suffered severely
Miss Phoebe Hawnes' shoes gave way
under the strain before the journey
was half ended and the great toe of
her right foot was in evidence when

feet has won her the sobriquet of

POET OF SIERRAS
SUCCUMBS TO DEATH

San Francisco, Feb 1S.-Joaquin
Miller. the poet of the Sierras, died
yesterday in his one room cabin which
he built with his own hands in the
Piedmont hills many years ago. His
daughter, Jaunita Miller, and his wife
were with him. The end came at 8
O'Clock in the afternoon with warm
sunshine flooding the room where lay
the author of Songs of the Sunland."
Death came slowly upon the ven
erable bard. He became unconscious
Thursday, after a lingering illness
which began when he was stricken
with paralysis two years ago. His
wife and daughter were summoned
at that time from the east and had
been with him since. The weakness
of old age had crept upon him and
although he worked at times, he rare
ly ventured far from THE Heights"
as he called his mountain retreat.
Since his collapse Thursday he re-
gained consciousness several times
and realized yesterday morning that
he could not survive the day.
Last Words. II Love You"
81 am dying-pity me pity mel" he
Whispered to his daughter
In a semi-cOnscious condition he
Whispered to his daughter.
His last words TO his wife were: 'I
love you"
AT noon life was barely discernible.
