DIAZ INSANE AND DYING.

Mexican Chief Executive a Mental Wreck from Overwork. ! A dispatch from Cuernavaca, Mexico, says that President Diaz is fast nearing his death. He lies prostrate, hopelessly Insane, wildly‘delirious, a wreck, awaiting the final summons. Ills decay is wholly mental. He has worked too hard, with but few vacations. He is simply paying the penalty of dn overtaxed brain and body. Coupler! with this is the attempt made upon Ids, life four years ago in'the capital by n drunken tailor named Arro vo. who was the tool of a prominent official who coveted the presidency. This inch dent, with the dramatic sequence of events that followed it, has preyed upon the president's mind ever since, and late !y he lias desired to get away from the country. It took all the influence Of his

PRESIDENT DIAZ.

friends to get him to stand for re-election last year. The greatest ruler Mexico has ever known is dying, hopelessly insane. The family of President Diaz and his most intimate friends have been almost constantly with him for the last month, and n well-known specialist from the United States was brought about a week ago. He stayed but two days, when he returned, saying he could do nothing for the patient, as he was, in his opinion, beyond human help. According to law Ignacio Mari seal, vice-president, would succeed,iu the case of the sudden death or incapacity of the president.. With Diaz's death, it is feared, the peace of Mexico will be in jeopardy. 1 '

Few-Line Interviews.

William A. Pinkerton, Head of the Pinkerton Detective Agency—Crime runs in a groove. One crime, if it be a great one, will lie followed by another one similar to it. You can bet your last cent on this theory. It will work out every time. Small crimes do not have that effect, but large ones' iu variably do. The human mind seems to be constructed on that plan. Crime, although horrible in the extreme, seems to possess a peculiar, unexplainable fascination about it. It is contagious, and is catching. The Cudahy kidnaping was a pronounced success. It was so bold, daring and successful that 1 knew a series of others were bound to follow. They have. We have had an epidemic of them.

John Barrett, former United States Minister to Siam—Japan to-da.v threatens to dominate the Pacific as England does the Atlantic. She is building a fleet which in proportion to her size is equal to England's. She hns the best organized army oil earth to-day. She has an extensive consular service—for instance, over 119 consuls in Australia alone, against our six. She is fostering her merchant marine iu a way no other nation is doing. To-day she is suffering from a temporary depression, but it is due to temporary conditions. She is planning to dominate the Pacific, and with all our tremendous strength we may some day be rudely surprised to find ourselves overmatched iu tlie Pacific.

Gustav Freilson, Agent of tlie Milwaukee, Wi*., Associated Charities—l not only isdieve in the puhiic whipping post, but I'll volunteer to do the whipping myself without pay. A man who bents his wife ought to lie whipped, but the whipping should be done systematically. I've got a good stout right arm, and I'll promise the judge that the full extent of the stripes he orders shall be administered. I’d like nothing better than a chance to whip some of the men whose wives come to me day after day telling the same pitiful story of hard work on their part, cruelty on their husbands’ sides nud in the end abandonment.

George Pen roe of Cripple Creek, Colo.— There’s an old story about fur off cuttle having long horns and another about distant fields looking green. That's the way I felt übout Honolulu before I went there, four months ago. Colorado is good enough for me now. Of course, Honolulu is a great place, for those who like it, but a man must be cut out, I think, for life iu that kind of a country before he can is* satisfied to live there. Business nnd social conditions are so entirely different from what we find them at home that a man lias to readjust bis whole mode of living nud thinking to get In touch with tlie people.

James 1,. Jackson of Palutko, Flu.— Strawberries will lie plentiful this year. Berry conditions have advanced sufficiently to indicate that the coming crop will lie much heavier than last season. You may remember that the crop of 1899 was enormous nil through the South, and that last year's was poor. This year the plants mi* maturing earlier, nnd If the present indications are upheld by results the prices will lie low.

HARRISON IS DEAD.

EX-PRESIDEtIT EXPIRES FROM ATTACK OF PNEUMONIA. Fatal Illncaa Had Its Inception in a Cold Which Developed Into Grip. Then Into Pneumonia Brief Life Story of the Famous Statesman. Benjamin Harrison, twenty-third President of the United States, died at his home, 1214 North Delaware street, Indianapolis, at 4:45 p. in. on Wednesday. The Px-President had been unconscious since dawn, recognizing no one about his bedside, uttering no coherent-word except u feeble demand for water. His wife, who had been by bis siile night and day, could only press his hand without obtaining the sympathetic word or smile-. Death was quiet and painless. Gen. Harrison's illness had its inception in a cold be contracted about March 1 und which developed into a serious attack of tlie grip. Although he placed himself under the care of a physician immediately, the ailment did not yield to treatment readily, and in a few days ho was stricken with pneumonia. For a time it was impossible to learn Gen. Harrison's true condition, Mrs. Harrison having refused to allow the physicians to discuss the case. After the condition became critical, however, the doctors were authorized to keep the public informed by means of bulletins. At 2 o'clock Tuesday morning the turn for the worse came. At that hour the pain from his afflicted lung made him restless and he begun to toss nervously upon his bed. His respiration grew fainter, his pulse increased and the general symptoms beca'me so alarming that for a time dissolution was expected momentarily. But the patient fought it off. At 3 o'clock there seemed to be some encouragement iu his condition, although his temperature was 104.4. Dr. Jameson left the house at 4 o’clock for a period of rest and returned two hours later to find Gen. Harrison more uncomfortable and losing ground with every breath. Mrs.

EX-PRESIDENT HARRISON.

Harrison and Drs. Hadley and Dorsey remained iu the sick room throughout the night. The first really alarming dews from the sick room came at 9 o’clock iu the forenoon. An hour later Dr. Jameson announced that Gen. Harrison's condition was still worse and that he entertained little hope of his surviving many hours. Ten minutes after that announcement was made another bulletin came from the house stating that the alarming symptoms were increasing rapidly. Gen. Harrison lingered apparently at the point of dissolution. Tuesday night was a long, anxious vigil to the watchers at the bedside, and to thousands of the friends and admirers of the ex-Uresident all over the country.. The gloom emanating from the Harrison home spread not only over Indianapolis, hut over the State and nation, and the whole country listened with tlie deepest concern for the story of the fight against death told in the bulletins that came hourly. At the Hnrrisou home hundreds of telegrams, telephone ealls and personal inquiries and expressions of grief and sympathy were received from the immediate friends of the family and from men prominent in the affairs of the nation who were associated at one time or another with the ex-Pres-ldcnt. * The oxygen treatment used in Gen. Harrison s case is the same treatment that saved Itudyard Kipling from death from pneumonia when he was attacked by that disease about two years ago. While it did not bring results that were at any time encouraging, it prolonged the fight. Gen. Harrison gave no signs during the night that indicated that he recognized those about him or that he was suffering greatly. General Harrison’s Career. Benjamin Harrison, n grandson of William Henry Harrison, the ninth President of the United States, was born at North Bend, Ohio, Aug. 20, 1833. Ho graduated University in 1852, studied law In Ciueinnati, removed to Indiunnpolis in 1854, where he practiced his profession; became reporter of Indiana Supremo Court; commissioned second lieutenant of Indiana Volunteers July, 1802: was mustered out in June, 1805, having attained the rank of brevet brigadier general. He was the Republican candidate for Governor of Indiana In 1870, but was defeated. He was a member of the Mississippi River Commission in 1879, United States Senator from 1881 to 1887. and was elected President of the United States Nov. 0, 1888, by the Republicans. He was defeated for reelection in 1892 by Grover Cleveland, and St the expiration of his Presidential term resumed the practice of law at Indianapolis. He has since held various important public positions, and had made a world-wide reputation In international law.

GIRL STIRS WILD MOB.

Aaericin Fcbool Superintendent Attacked in Ban Juan. Mobs of enraged natives terrorized the city of San Juan, Portb Rico, for hours Thursday evening because a 10-year-old Porto Rican girl had been reprimanded in school by the American superintendent. They surged through the streets shoutiag “Down with the Americans!” “Death to the usurpers!” and other incendiary sentiments, and 1,500 of them, after stoning Superintendent Armstrong ,as he left the school, besieged him in the Intedeneia building, where he sought refuge. The situation having become serious, Corporal Hiscoek and five artillerymen, acting without orders, charged across the plaza, fired a volley into the air and rescued the beleaguered official. For this the corporal was arrested. The unfortunate episode,'arising as It did from a trivial incident, illustrates the worst side of the Porto Rican character and emphasizes the magnitude of the problem of assimilation. The native mayor ignored Gov. Alleu'a order to disperse the mob. The city police, though they charged the rioters nnd fired volleys Into the air. were hooted and insulted. When Martin C. Braumberg, commissioner of education, asked that his hotel and offices be protected from the mob he was scorned. Gov. Allen is considerably worried over the occurrence, which is regarded as the most serious since the early days of the American occupation.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP

According to a published summary of the Senate’s last report, a Washington drug firm received in the last fiscal year $1,700 for medicines and toilet -.articles. These supplied to the Senators for their individual use, nnd paid for out of the pocket of Uncle Sam. No small item of this expenditure was 1,000 doses of bromo seltzer and bromo caffeine. Three dozenr of caffeine powders, four cases of. lithia water, two bottles of bromo lithia and $2,70 worth of lithia tablets further contributed to keep the senatorial system in good repair. Twelve pounds of soda mint tablets were purchased for the alleviation of “that dark brown taste," and the extravagant sum of 80 cents was exchanged for tabnles for indigestion. To each member there are four empßyes, iu various capacities. The smaller body of Congress has come to cost Uncle Sara twice as much per member per annum as the House. Almost all of the sixty messengers receive $1,440 a year each, whereas the old blind chaplain is considered to be worth only S9OO. Yet he is dependent upon some one to lead him daily to and from the Capitol. Laborers in the folding room get SI,OOO and those who run the elevators enjoy still more, $1,200. The man in charge of the stationery room draws $2,102.40 annually; his assistants, SI,BOO and $1,200 respectively. The little pages who wait upon Senators get $75 per month, the*postmaster of the Senate $2,250 annually, firemen $1,095, and the upholsterer and locksmith $1,440. By far the greatest proportion of expense incurred each year for toilet articles is demanded by the Senate barber shops nnd bathrooms. It is not generally known that each member of this distinguished body is barberized gratis as many times a day as he wishes. On the streets of Washington almost any day there can be seen a wagon loaded with $1,000,000 or more in cash or with thousands of dollars’ worth of stamps and quantities of priceless paper used ifi the printing of money. This is the United States Trensruy’s ensh wagon. As the route,traversed by this daily conveyancer of money lies in a comparatively unfrequented part of the city and bordering a great park great rare is taken to prevent its being robbed. The wagon is of bullet proof steel, and is constructed in a manner to present great resistance to a forcible attack. It opens at one end by the removal of immense steel bars, and the unlocking of an intrF cate system ojt safety locks. , In addition to the immunity from robbery afforded by the steel casting and the heavy locks and bars, the wagon has the protection of an armed guard, which accompanies it at all times when valuables are aboard. Four men, in addition to the driver, usually go with the conveyance. They carry big navy revolvers on their persons, and several Winchester rifles are ready at band under the driver's seat. While the money Is being loaded and unloaded at the treasury building or at the bureau of engraving and printing the escort guard is augmented by the presence of watchmen from the building, who stand around in an unostentatious way, but ready for business.

There are a number of millionaires in the United States Senate, but not so many as people generally suppose. Mr. Clark of Montana is rated at $75,000,000; Mr. Kearns, the new Senator from Utah, has a mine worth $12,000,000, so they say, but it is a recent acquisition. Ten yoars ago he was a poor farmer in Nebraska. Mr. Jones of Nevada is also the owner of profitable mining properties. Mr. Elkins has made a fortune in coal, and Mr. Scott, his colleague from West Virginia, has been equally successful in oil. Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts, Mr. Kean of New Jersey and Mr. Wetmore of Rhode Island inherited millions. Senator Proctor of Vermont is a marble king and owns large quarries. Mr. Shoup of Idaho wus / one of the early pioneers of that State, and has made a large fortune from ranches, mines and supply stores whieh are said to do more business than any similar establishments iu the West. Mr. McMillan, Mr. Hanna and Mr. Depew have been successful in business; Mr. Hale married a daughter of the late Senator Chandler of Michigan, who was immensely wealthy, and Mr. Fairbanks of Indiana has accumulated a handsome fortune by successful law practice.

From the statement prepared by Mr. Cannon one may obtain some idea of the enormous sums it takes to run a government like that of the United States. The total appropriations of the two sessions of the Fifty-sixth Congress, covering two fiscal years, shows an average for each year, in round numbers, of $740,000,000, the items being ns follows: Agriculture .\ .$ 8, r0t, 000 Army Diplomatic and c0n5u1ar....... g,C21,3H7 District of Columbia 18,082,838 Fortification* 14,747,8.30 Indian* 17,784,210 Legislative, etc 48,201,507 Military Academy 1.421,1X0 Navy 113.704,800, Pensions .1 200,4110,480 Post office I 237.420.tW7 Itlver and linrbor 580,000 Sundry civil ~ 127,873.023 Permanent appropriations .... 257.070.440 Miscellaneous UAO.\3ot Total *1,440,002,545 According to these figures Unde Sain bus reached the point in bis domestic arrangements where he spends n little over $2,000,000 a day.

ANCIENTS HAD SENSE.

Dated Beginning of Year From Opening of Spring When AH Thing* in Nature Start Afresh—SomeOtherThings In Which the Ancients Have Given Us Points. The ancients began tlieir year with the advent of spring. Ilow much more appropriate thus to begin the New Year with the new life of nature in the awakening spring. At this season all processes throughout the natural world start afresh. '5 The ancients also showed their <s*J gaeity and appreciation of the great changes and active processes of springtime, by realizing that this is also the time for renewed life and energy in the human system. They well knew that the blood should be cleansed from inipurlties and the nerves re-invigorated at this season. Hence the establishment of the custom of taking a good spring medicine. This most sensible and healthy custom is followed by almost everybody at the present day, few people of intelligence venturing to go through this trying time of change from winter to summer without taking a spring medicine. The unanimity on this subject Is a settled fact; the only question hereto-

MR. STOUGHTON L. FARNHAN.

fore has been in regard to what Is the' best thing to take. The people have now become unanimous in their decision that as a spring tonic and restorative, Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy is preeminently the best. Year after ydhr Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy.has proved Itself the surest, most positive and reliable remedy. Made from pure vegetable medicines, It invariably cleanses, purifies and enriches the blood, making the blood rich and red, and at the same time, by its invigorating effects, giving strength, power, vitality and energy to the nerves. In fact, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy has proved Itself the most perfect of medicines and just what everybody needs for a spring remedy. Try it this spring. Mr. Stoughton L. Farnham of Manchester, N. H., says: “Some time ago I was troubled with lassitude and a feeling of fatigue. I did not have the ambition to do anything that demanded unusual physical exertion. “I was recommended by a friend to try Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. I took two or three bottles and am prepared to say that it did me good. I can recommend it as a tonic, as I know it helped me.” Remember Dr. Greene's , Nervura Mood and nerve remedy Is recommended by physicians, in fact, It is a physician’s prescription, the discovery of the well-known specialist In nervous and chronic diseases.
