Wales, a well known business man, was found sitting in his chair Thursday afternoon, dead. He was in good health until last Monday, when he began to complain and consulted his physician. Dr. George. He was believed to be suffering from an attack of grip and remained in the house, although at no time was he confined to his bed. When he arose on Thursday he was free from fever and felt so much better that at noon he told his nephew to order his buggy for him for 3 o'clock and he would take a drive. The buggy was sent to the house at that hour and the driver failed to get a response to repeated rings and knocking. He opened the door and found Mr. Wales in the chair. The body was still warm. Neighbors were called in and they tried to resuscitate him. When Dr. George arrived a short time afterward, he pronounced him dead. The immediate cause of hi3 death is supposed to have been apoplexy, as one side of h's face was discolored, indicating the bursting of a blood vessel. Mr. Wales has made his home at the corner of College avenue and Thirteenth street with his two sisters ahd a nephew. Neither Mr. Wales nor either cf his sisters was married. With them lived a nephew, Geo. It. Wales. Miss Amy K. Wales and Miss Ituama Wales have been for some time visiting at Galena, Kan., at the home of Mr. Samuel Schmuck. well known in this city. Miss Ituama Wales i. in delicate health and the trip was taken for her benefit. Mr. Wales and his nephew were left alone in the house and during the day, while George It. Wales was at his business, Mr. Wales was alon in the house. It was thus that he happened to be alone when ho died. Mr. Wales had commenced to ma!;c preparations for his drive and had laid vot a change of clothing. He had removed hlj sh!rt and was then probably taken with a chill as. when found., he had buttoned his coat tightly about him and had placed over his shoulders a heavy shawl which belonged to one of his sisters. On the table beside him was a pitcher of lemonade which he had Just made. Ho was born in New York State in March, 1S17. and came to this city about 1S72 from Oannelton, Indiana. He at once engaged in the building supply business 'and continued it to the time of his death. He was a most severely honest man in his business transactions and was careful, prudent and conservative. He had accumulated considerable property and a short time ago purchased a lot on Michigan street, between Alabama street and Massachusetts avenue, on which he intended to erect an apartment house. lie had accepted the designs for this building, and was to have let the contract yesterday. He was an uncompromising Democrat, and though strong and tenacious in his own opinion, did not deny to others an equal tenacity in thfir opinions, lie was a member of the Knights of Honor and wis grand treasurer of the order when he died. Ho was also an active Odd Fellow. He wa3 prominently connected with the old line of building and loan associations and was a great believer in them when properly conducted. When very young, his father died and left to Mr. Wales the care of his mother and three si.trr. In addition to them he raised two children of a sister who died. For many years he and his sisters have lived together. The sisters who survive him are well known as teachers, both having taught in the schools of this city, and Miss Amy Wales having also taught In the Argentine liepublic. It was from the training received when he had the responsibility of the family on his shoulders that made Mr. Wales the rreclse and exacting business man he was. but he never asked of others or required of them that which he did not always expect to render to others. Ills sisters were notified of his death and are expected to arrive this morning. Until they reach here no arrangements for the funeral will bo made. Dnth of Rebecca Cnrr. Miss Rebecca Carr, formerly of Irvington, is dead, and her body is being brought to this city from Cambridge, Mass. It will arrive to-night and the funeral will be held Monday, at the home of Mrs. R. W. Cole, a niece of Miss Carr. at No. East Eleventh street. Miss Carr was n sister of Mrs. R. I. Howe and an aunfof Prof. T. C. Howe and Will D. Howe, who are well known In Irvlngton. She lived with the Howe family wliile its home was in Irvington. and moved with it to Cambridge two years ago. She died of paralysis. He Had laed Headache Powder. Louis T. Gott, of No. 1413 Williams street, died suddenly at 1 o'clock yesterday morning, after an Illness of a few hours. Coroner Nash Investigated a report that Gott had ben taking "headache powders." The coroner found that death was due to heart disease, but the "headache powders" might have hastened it, he said. Funeral of Mr. John M. lltitler. The funeral of Mrs. John M. Butler was held yesterday afternoon In the lecture loom of the Second Presbyterian Church. There wero many beautiful floral offerings, which were placed about the casket. Above the casket were hung the portraits of her husband and son. wreathed in smllax. The KTvlce was conducted by Rev. J. A. Milbum, vrho read a tribute to the noble character of Mrs. Butler.

THREE-CENT-FARE CASES.

Judge Alford W 111 Strike Them from Criminal Docket. Judge Alford has been looking up some street-car case3 that have been pending in the Criminal Court for nearly two years. These are cases where men connected with the street-railroad company were arrested for charging more than 3-cent fares. The arrests were made under the legislative enactment of 1 SOT. poviding for S-cent fares. Twelve or fifteen of these cases .have been pending. There are cases against Augustus L. Mason, former president of the Citizens' Street-railroad Company; Miller Elliott, superintendent cf the companj', and several conductors in the employ of the road. Judge Alford has been ilooking over the docket with a view to striking off these cases. The court says that the street-railway law passed by the last Legislature, having repealed the 3-cent fare law without providing for the prosecution of those arrested under that law, it will now be in order to clear the docket of all such cases. FISHING IN THE CANAL Question an to Whether It Is In Violation of Sew L.uw. A new question has been raised as to the fish law. This time it is whether or not the law forbids fishing in the canal and it was submitted to the Attorney General'9 Department yesterday for the first time. This Inquiry raises the question as to whether the canal is under classification of a public running stream or is legally a running stream at all. It further involves the question of public or private ownership, and an opinion would not be given without some investigation of the case. Assistant Attorney General Hadley said that it would strike him that the intent of the law was so plain that it would apply to the canal and that fishing therln would be forbidden In May and June. He would not give this as a binding opinion but said that would be his personal opinion without making an investigation. UNIFORMS FOR SHAM BATTLE State Expect to Receive Them Six ComnnnieM to Participate. It Is believed now that the new uniforms for the National Guard will arrive here in time for the companies Invited to participate in the sham battle at the state encampment of the G. A. R., at Terre Haute. Six companies have been invited to be pressent, and the only question that now arises is as to supplying the guns. The State has guns on hand sufficient to equip four companies, and' letters have been written to the War Department to urge that the new ones be issued in time for that event. It is understood at the Statehouse that there is a large supply ot guns at the Arsenal, in this city, and if the red tape can be complied with it is possible a surticient number may be secured from there. General Gore is somewhat in doubt as to securing the guns, but will do all in his power. PAYMENT OF TAXES. People L'nnnnnlly Prompt In Payinc Them This Year. Monday is the last day for the payment of the spring installment of taxes. After Monday the usual jenalty will be exacted from delinquents. The deputies say that people have "done well" this spring and the collections have been large.

"Things have been running as smoothly as clock work," said Deputy Frank Miller yesterday. The deputies say that in the payment of Rarrett law asstssments people are becoming educated and are gradually learning to come forward with, their payments at the proper time.

An improvement In the machinery of business redotmds to tho general benefit, because it simplifies the system and makes it cost less. This ia no less true as affecting matters of trust than in manufacturing, say. A corporation subject to frequent examination and always under legal control is more likely to do business well and cheap than individuals. It must do it well in order to succeed, and the volume of business will enable it to make very reasonable charges.
