Charley Witt Returns
To Belvidere

Belvidere Times:--Charley Witt
was an arrival on the Saturday
morning train, coming from Camp
Funston where he had just been
given an honorable discharge
from the United States army. In
about a month or so he expects
to be called to Washington, at
the expense of the government,
and will have an artificial arm
fitted on to take the place of the
one he lost at Chateau Theirry.
Charley also tells us that besides
fixing him with the artificial arm
the government pays him half of
his insurance which will amount
to S28.75 per month and will also
give HIM a pension, but he does
not know how much. While
none of these things can com
pensate him for the loss of his
arm, it nevertheless makes a sol
der feel that he has fought and
sacrificed for a government that
is grateful. He has been at Wash
ington most of the time since he
left here about two months ago
and only went to Funston TO be
out. While at FnuSton
he saw Steve Halva and says he
is LOOKING fine.

Governors Proclamation
Armenian and Syrian Relief

The crucihXion of Armenia is
the SaddeSt story of a race in
human history. For a thousand
wears the MoslemS have held
these suffering people in bondage.
Not merely thousands. but hun
dredS of thousands of them been
tortured to death in the most
terrible fashion by the Turks,
with the approval, and, in some
cases, the active support, of Ger
many. Yet, through it all, the
Armenians have refused to be
subjugated or to give up their ma
tional ideas or Christian religion,
Just now, as a direct result OF
the war which Germanv forced
onto the world, and into which
the Armenians were dragged as
the helpless victims of the Turks,

Rapid City Guide. Announce
ment has been made during the
week that Rapid City is to have
a large packing plant, the erec-
tlon OF which will be started as
soon as the weather permits.
With John l.. Burke as president.
and Orville Y. Rinehart, as treas
urer, the DaCotah Packing Com
pany has incorporated with a
capital stock of one million tlve
hundred thousand dollars.
Both of these officers of the
company need no introduction to
the citizens of South Dakota. MIR.
Burke was for twelve years,

the United States Land Office in
Rapid City. He has at all times
been in closest acquaintance with
the development of the Western

success OF StockraiserS and farm
ers under conditions as they now
are.
Mr.. Rinehart is as we'll and IA

with the company is the best
guaranty that its affairs will be
properly conducted and the en-
terpriSe will succeed.

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt Passed
Away At Ais Monday MORNING

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
26th president of the United
States, died at his home at Saga
more Hill, early Monday morning
1t was at Ais o'clock that morn.
ing that the former president died
in his sleep, painlessly. His death
was due directly to a blood Clot,
lodged in one lung, the result of
inf1amratory rheumatism.
Put out the light, please" were
the former presidents last words.
They were addressed to his per-
sonal attendant, lanes Amos, a
young negro who had been in his
service since he left the white
house and who was sitting at the
foot of his bed.
Sometime later Amos noticed
that the patient was breathing
heavily and became alarmed. He
left the room to call a nurse who
had been summoned from Oyster
Bay. When thev returned Colon
ell Roosevelt had breathed his last.
They called Mrs. Roosevelt, the
only member of the family who
was at home. There had been a
family gathering Christmas day,
but as no alarm was felt over the
Coloneps condition, the children
who were able to spend the holi-
day with their parents had gone
to different parts of the country.
Gable messages were sent to
Major Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,
and Captain Kermit Roosevelt,
who are in service in France and
teleerams to Mrs. NichlaS Long
worth, to Captain Archie, who
left yesterday with his wife for
Boston, where his father-in-law
died Saturday. and to Mrs. Ethel
Derby, who is in Aiken, S. c. with |
her two children.

Mrs. Roosevelt telephoneu tC
her husbands cousin, Col Emler
Roosevelt of New York, who left
for Oyster Bay, and to the Colon
els stenographer, Miss Josephine
Stricken, who also was in New
York. Miss Stricken gave the sac
news to the world through the AS
sociated Press.
Colonel Roosevelt was visited
twice last evening by DR.. Faller
of this village. At 1890 when the
second visit was made, the pa
tient explained to the physician,
Il feel as though my heart was
going to quit beating" DR.. Faller
had no reason to believe, hoWev-
er, that Mr.. Roosevelt was in any
immediate danger. So certain
was he that this was true that
Mrs. Roosevelt and the nurse
retired.
One of Colonel RooSevelt's New
York Physicians visited him Fri
day but although the former pres
ident ~was suffering some pain
from the rheumatism he made
light of it, laughing and chatting
without restrain.
Colonel Roosevelt's final illness
dated from last February. 1t was
on the fifth Of that month, that,
following an operation on one of
his ears, he was removed from
Oyster Bay to the Roosevelt hos
pital in New York. He remained
there until March 3, meanwhile
undergoing two more operations.
Two months later he insisted
on keeping speaking engagements
for him in many cities
and until the fall continued to
give from the platform his views
on international affairs.
In November he was forced to

ment OF rheumatism. Today
through an announcement by his
physicians concerning the cause
OF his death, it became known
that three weeks before he lef
the hospital to return to Saga
more Hill on Christmas day, he
had suffered a pulmonary embol
ism which nearly proved fatal.
The death of Colonel RooSe
welt is believed by the physicians
who attended him to have been
hastened by grief over Quentin'S S
death, coupled with anxiety over
the serious wounds suffered by
Capt. Archie Roosevelt while
fighting in France.
He was proud of his soldier
sons and their heroism but he
was a devoted father and he
Grleved for the one who gave his
life for his country as well as for
the other who was wounded. He
hid his suffering from the world
however, in the hope that he
might set an example for other
