JAMES wHITcoMe RILEY DEAD.
Beloved Hoosier Poet Suceumbs &c
Attack Of Paralysis.

Beloved Hoosier Poet Suceumbs to
Attack Of Paralysis.
Indianapolis, Ind.-James Whitcomb
Riley died at his home here, July %,
death. being due to paralysis. Mr..
Riley suffered his first violent attack
of paralysis July 10, 1910.
James Whitcomb Riley, the Hoosier
poet, was born in 1853, but was re-
ticent as to his exact age. Mr.. Riley
never married. One of the most
unique celebrations in the country was
when Riley day" was observed by a
banquet in Indianapolis, and in schools
of the country attended by more than
100000 children. Men prominent in
business and politics from all over the
coutry assembled to do the poet hon.
age at the celebration, and many con-
gratulatory messages were received
from abroad on that occasion.
James Whitcomb Riley, born of the
middle west, sang the joys. sorrows.
fancies and humors of it's folk, largely
in its own dialect. The world was so
touched by his inspiration and the
realism of his homely symbols that he
was one of the few that, devoting
their lives to poetry, gained a fortune.
While Mr.. Riley never married, he
was a lover of children, whose spirit
he OWNED SO intimately, and OF fam
lily life. Many of the last years of his
life he spent quietly at his home in a
secluded section of Indianapolis.
