GHOST OF GULF
STORM IS FATAL
TO CAPE WOMAN
Mrs. ]. 7. Harris Was
Carried Out to Sea in Gal
weston Flood of 1900.
HAIR TURNED WHITE
WHEN WASHED ASHORE
Reads News in Cape Of Recent
Gulf Devastation and
COllapses.

Following nervous collapse in
duced three weeks ago by reading of
the recent flood and storm devasta-
tion at Galveston, Mrs. ]. T. Harris.
refugee of the Galveston flood of
1900, died at her home in South Cape
at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon of
spinal meningitis that grew out of her
nervous condition.
The malady had affected her brain
and caused death. She was but q
years old and is survived by her nus
band and a 2-year old son, John T.
Harris Jr.
At the time of the famous Calves
ton flood of 1900, Mrs. Harris lived
with her parents on the Gulf coast, in
side the city. AS the tremendous tidal
wave swept the city away into the
gulf, Mrs. Harris mounted to the roof
of her home, which was a wooden
building.
She managed to cling to the frame
structure as it was swirled out toward
the open sea, and several hours later
she was recovered from the gulf, when
the tide washed her and her wrecked
home back to land.
She had been buffeted about in the
waves for a long time and on almost
innumerable occasions had had narrow
escapes from death in the flood.
When she was rescued, her hair had
turned within few hours from dark
brown to a silver gray. The nervous
strain to which she had been subjected,
resulted in a prOstratiOn on her rescue
from the sea.
Since that time, she has been subject
to several similar nervous cOllaspSes,
when her life has been endangered.
About three weeks ago, after she had
prepared supper for her husband as
he returned from his work as a cement
burner at the Portland cement plant,
she sat down to read the newspapers.
She saw the account of the flood
and storm that swept large part Of
the sea wall at Galveston out into the
sea. The story revived her experiences
in a similar catastrOphy and within a
few moments she had collapsed.
On her revival she suffered several
severe fainting spells and eventually
the meningitis set at the back of her
neck.
Mrs. Harris was married to her
present husband few years ago. She
has only sister in Pasadena, Cal,
who will be unable to come to the Cape
for the funeral.
The funeral will be from the Harris
residence in South Cape to the Lori
mier Cemetery at o'clock this after
noon.

/
another minute and half on the way
they would have missed their couple
"The next time that minute and a
half will be in my favor, maybe" Il
boy declared.
As the couple stepped down from
the train in the Cape with Seagraves,
the girls father was at the station
watching for his daughters face.
There was hungry look that rested
on his features and he told by-stand~
erS at the station who knew him that
all he wanted to do was see his little
Lottie.
When Lottie walked up the station
platform, she went past her father
with chin held high and eyes averted
from him. No sign of recognition
seemed to pass between them, and the
girl walked probably twenty feet be-
fore stopping. Then it was at the
brusk order of Seagraves.
The girl walked in the lead of the
little party that went from the station
to the City Jail. She swung along with
a jaunty air, and talked banteringfy of
the elopement and her arrest.
She still wore the blue serge suit
that she had purchased in the Cape in
preparation for her elopement, a pair
of dusty black leather pumps and a
straw bonnet which she wore at a
rakish tilt.
Her father followed walking in the
rear, unable to say a word to her.
The child gave no heed to anything
that he would say.
Young Webb walked beside the girl
and a step behind. His air was indie
pendent and careless.
Both of them had been interviewed
by the newspaper reporters in st.
Louis land the girl had her photograph
snapped five times, she said, for the
st. Louis daily papers.
After young Webb had been placed
in Jail, Greer told police officers that
he did not want to prosecute his
daughter for her connection with the
loss of the money. He said he was
glad enough to get his girl back home
and was willing to let the matter drop.
Should the prosecution of the girl
be dropped, then the case against
young Webb also will have to be
uuashed, it is said. Greer said he was
willing to quash both cases, because
he felt sorry for Webb's mother who
resides in Poplar Bluff.

BURGLAR FAILS TO
ENTER APARTMENT
Broadway House is Visited,
But PrOwler is Frightened
Away.

A burglar attempted to enter the
home of c. F. Mattingly, over the Tay-
lOr & MastersOn sOtre at418 BrOawday
shortly before 10 o'clock last night
but was frightened away by pedes-
trians.
Two young men who were passing
the store heard a man on the inside,
they told Patrolman Talley, who hur-
ried to the scene. He made a thor
ough search, but was unable to find
any traces of burglars around the
store. AS he was emerging from the
rear part of the building, he saw Mrs.
Mattingly and her two daughters
standing in the front door of their
home.
He asked them if they heard a noise
in the store. Mrs. Mattingly informed
the officer that she had heard nothing
in the store, but a burglar had at
tempted to enter her home through the
rear door.
Patrolman Talley then examined
rear part of the house, but failed to
find the thief. A large garbage can,
sitting on the rear porch, had been
overturned. The policeman climbed on
the metal roof of the building, but the
burglar had made his escape.
Mr.. Mattingly was away from home
when the attempted robbery was
made. Mrs. Mattingly and two daugh-
tiers were preparing to retire when
they heard a noise at the rear door.
They listened for moment and were
able to distinguish plainly the noise
made by the burglar trying to open

MRS. D. |. HAWKINS,
LONG i'll, IS DEAD
Widow of Prominent MissOurian
Made Heroic Fight for
Her Life.

Mrs. ID. L. Hawkins. wife of the late
Judge David l.. Hawkins, died about
$3.50 o'clock last night at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. r. H. Schulz. 318
North Middle street.
She had been i'll virtually all sum-
mer and in the last ten days had been
so low that her death was expected at
almost any time. On several occasions
she suffered severe sinking spells
which it was believed she never would
survive
Her death was due to complication
of heart trouble with old age diseases.
She was 76 years old.
The funeral arrangements had not
been completed last night. The funer-
al, however, will be tomorrow after
noon.
Mrs. Hawkins husband was Assist
ant Secretary Of the interior under
President Grover Cleveland, and prior

Hawkins family was one of the most
widely known in Southeast Missouri.
On their return to Missouri after his
service at the Capital had terminated,
the couple moved to farm that Judge
Hawkins owned in Scott County, near
Blodgett.
Mrs. Hawkins sustained two sinking
spells early in the summer, but rela-
tives in the Cape did not become
alarmed at her condition. A few days
ago. however, when she became dan
gerously i'll again, they sent for her
children living out of town to come to
her bedside.
In response to this call the following
shortly afterward arrived in the Cape:
Charles w. Hawkins, of Texas; Mrs.
Johnnie Arga, of Los Angeles, CAL;
Albert A Hawkins, Little Rock, Ark,
all children; Mrs. f. A. Kimmel, Of Ill
mo, and Mrs. Julia Kay, of st. Louis,
sisters.
Mrs. c. F. Betten is a daughter in
addition to Mrs. Schultz. Judge Haw-
kins has been dead about fourteen
years, and since his death, Mrs. Haw-
kins has lived most of the time in the
Cape, where she has lived most Of her
life.

ILLINOIS STOCK
COMING TO FAIR
Quarantine Laws Have Kent
Sister State from Exhibiting
Here.

For the first time in three years
live stock exhibits from Illinois vii
be on display at the Cape Girardeau
Fair this fall, when several owners
from across the river will enter theil
stock herds, horses, mules, cattle
sheep and hogs.
The absence of Illinois stock in the
last two fairs has been caused by the
quarantine laws in effect there en-,
joining owners to ship their stock from
Illinois into Missouri without strict
government inspection.
The proposition of having the prop.
er government officials inspect the
show cattle and approve them for in.
terstate shipment was q costly fea-
ture. For the inspection and prepare
ton OF the ordinary herd of show cat
tie, the charge amounted to something
like $35.
This impeachment made it exceeding
ly impracticable for Illinois owners
of stock to bring their exhibits to the
Cape fair.
The quarantine regulations were en-
forced by the Bureau of Animal Rus-
bandry at Washington on account of
trouble in Illinois in the last two years
with the hoof and mouth disease
among cattle.
1t became necessary to restrict the
shipment of cattle out of the State
unless it was absolutely certain that
the cattle were free of the disease.
This regulation, of course, acted as a
protection for the fair exhibitors who
were guarded against the chances of
their animals contracting the disease.
This year such regulations are not
being enforced, and Secretary J. 7.
Num- Jr., of the fair, has announced
that several Illinois owners already
have sent word that they are going to
place their stock in the race for some
of the premiums.
In addition to the Illinois stock, the
livestock that will be on exhibit from
Southeast Missouri barns is going to
be numerous. The indications based
on letters Num- has received are that
the livestock show will be one of the
best and largest in recent years.
The agricultural exhibits also prom
Use to be magnificent as well. The
large building near the main entrance
to the Fairgrounds will be especially
prepared for the exhibits of farm
products and it is anticipated that the
building will be over-crowded.
A large list of premiums will be
given in the agricultural products.
One premium will be $3.50 for the
finest collection of different articles
all raised on one farm.
The fair opening now is only short
time off and many farmers already
have indicated with intentions of COM
ing to the Cape for the entire four
days. The interest in the races prom
Uses to be exceptional this year on &C
count of the two $1,000 stake races
and six purse races for 5000 each.
The entries for the $500 purse races
will be closed at the office of Secre-
tary Num- on September Is. Secretary
Num- is anxious for all those who have
entries to get them booked early.

CAPE STUDENT in
1869 COMES BACK
Minnesota Supreme Judge Mar.
vels at Growth of City since
He last Saw it.

JuuS6 aiOcTI SCIldfieE u the MINNIE
sofa Supreme Court, returned to St
Louis yesterday after an absence OF
46 years. When he last saw this city
he said, it was little more than a blot
on the landscape. Coming back, he
found a full-fledged city with nearly
all of the buildings that he was
familiar with in 1869 absent.
He was in this city three school
terms, the first in 1867 and the last in
1869. 1t was forty-six years ago last
spring that he finished his educational
work here and moved away. Cape Cir
ardeau then was but village, with St
Vincent's College as its chief attrac-
ton.
Judge Schaller was a student there
from the early autumn of 1867 to the
spring of 1869 When he left Cape
Girardeau, he was but Il years old
and he returned man of mature age.
"My coming back shattred all of my
dreams Of the city as it used to be.
When l was here Cape Girardeau was
composed of bu a few houses, scatter
ed about the river front and the Cath
Ollie institutions. The college was then
located in the suburbs and south and
west of the building stood great hills
covered with forests. That was the
picture | had in mind when l planned
to come back and go over the scenes
that were familiar to me in school
days.
"Mrs. Schaller and | went to the
college to have another look. | Just
wanted to see if could find anything
familiar. 1t is the same old building,
altered, of course, but the exterior is
practically unchanged and the scenes
down the river are the same. But civ
ilization has made many changes north
and west.
81 was permitted to look up the old
college register that was used when
was a student, and the signatures took
me fleeting back to yesterday. On its
yellow pages were scrawled the names
Of my schoolmates, many of whom |
had long ago forgotten. But | recog-
nized the handwriting, and these made
me recall the various characteristics of
those boys. In memory | could see the
circus wagons winding down the road,
as they did when l was student at
st. Vincent's.
81 could not help but marvel at the
changes that have come in my alb
sence. Cape Girardeau has grown in
to a city, with big buildings, pretty
homes and the hum of industry is ap-
parent everywhere. Where brooks used
to ripple unmolested, street cars are
now running, and where we used to
enjoy shooting are to be found hand
some residences, granitoid walks and
eelctric lights.
"After leaving Cape Girardeau, l
went to St. Louis and from there to
Minnesota. While my home is now in
Hastings. spend most of my time in
st. Paul"
Judge and Mrs. Schaller departed
for St. Louis yesterday afternoon. Aft
err a short visit in that city, they will
return to their home in Minnesota.

ing their announcement for some time.

in keeping their secret till the date of
the wedding had been determined.
The wedding will be October 81 at
the home of the brides parents on the
Perryville road. Immediately after
their wedding, the couple will depart
upon an extended tour of the West,
