HEART FAILURE IS CAUSE
Whllo reading a newspaper at her
homo In Hartford last Friday morn
ing, Mrs. Mary Pendleton Taylor,
wife- of Hon? H. P. Taylor, was
stricken with heart trouble and suc
cumbed within a few minutes de
spite all efforts to aid her. She had
suffered from this trouble at times
within tho pasV ten years, but her
death came as a surprise, because of
her recent seemingly robust health.
Mrs. Taylor was the daughter of
Dr. John E. Pendleton, and was
born In Philadelphia, Ponn., Feb.
J.1, 1858, thus making her 61 years;
of age at tho time of her death.
Sho and Mr. Taylor were married
October 22, 18S4, and to this union
were born two children, a daughter
and a son. The daughter, Mr. Dr.
Woolfolk Barrow lives at Lexing
ton, Ky., and son, John Pendleton
Tayor, is a resident of Hartford.
There are four grandchildren
Other near relatives are: a 'sis
ter, Mrs. Howard Gray, of St. John,
Kansas, and throe' brothers, Dr. Eu
gene Pendleton, of Hartford; John
E. Pendleton, of Kansas, and Char
les M. endleton, of Miami, Florida.
Funeral services were conducted
at tho family residence, Saturday
afternoon, by Rev. R. D. Bennett, af
ter which tho remains were laid to
rest in Oakwood cemetery.
Wo Join the many friends of tho
family In extending our deepest
.sympathy to the bereaved. ones.

"A TRIBUTE OF LOVE."
Mrs. Mory Pendleton Taylor is no
,more; her departure was calm and
sweet as befit the passing of one so
gentle, yet so brave. She realized
that her going away would be sudden
yet she radiated sunshine and happi
ness, loving and being loved as only
one so richly endowed by nature can
Mrs. Taylor was a woman of bril
liant Intellect, cultivated by years of
demotion to the best in literature and
art. Sho was passionately fond of
music and her familiarity with the
classic and modern schools was
amazing.
Until her health becamo Impaired
sho was one of the leading lights of
the Woman's Club. Yet as wife,
mother, sister, neighbor, filend, was
tho wealth of that generous heait
nvlshed in unstinted love. Her kind
ness of heart wa3 proverbial, she was
never known to say an unkind wonl,
but a smilo and kind Word from her
has often brought comfort and cour

She lives in the hearts of those
who loved her. wonderful
legacy she bequeathes to thoso she)
leaves behind legacy of sunny

Ex-Senator Lewis Predicts Elec

for Decision.
i.
Former United States Senator
James Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois,
foresees a five-cornered fight for the
Presidency, acqording to a statement
he Issued recently.
Some months ago In Washington
Mr. Lewis Issued a prophecy in
which he predicted that next year
there would be four political par
tics in the field. Since that ttmo
there has been Inaugurated a move
ment for a labor party, and more
recently a proposal for the forma
tion of a new party by the Comma
tee of Foity-eight.
"The country will have five m
tional parties, with five candidates
for President Republican, Demo
crat, Socialist, Labor and Liberal,"
said Mr. Lewis yesterday 'Tho
last two will contain many farmers
local political organizations of the
West and Southwest. The result
of tho next election will be s0 uncer
tain as to throw the Presidency into
the House of Representative? fov
decision another Hayes-Tildfu 1S
76 contest, without its political
crimes.
"The sprouts of political candi
dates now up and' out," ho says,
"will be withered fiom winter fold
long before next June's conventions.
The open house of all conventions
means that new men will be brought
forth ns nominees some of them
not now named In the West. New

"Attorney General Palmer and
Herbert Hoover are most spoken of
after leaving New York, until the
Middle West is reached. There is a
quiet movement in the Middle West
to put Vice President Marshall in
the first place, as a compromise, to
avoid conflict in tho Dsaiccratlc con
vention. "The Republicans will be domi
nated by the expressions at the prl
marls to be held from now on to
May in eleven big States. The Amer
ican people will see the first South
erner on both tickets since the Civ

The one .solemn tact, legieua-

the next election for President. Vico
