EX-GOVERNOR JOHN J. JAC03 STRICKEN WITH HEART DISEASE, YESrERDAY. 4 He Fell on the Sidewalk on Twelfth Street, and Expired in a Few Minutes—The Public Shocked at tne Sad Intelligence of Bis Demise. Ex-Governor John J. Jacob is dead! The summons came suddenly, yester day afternoon, while the distinguished victim was actively engaged in the prosecution of bis professional business, and in a moment he had passed from a state of apparently perfect health to uficonsclousness, and soon thereafter he breathed his last. Although he was stricken down upon a public street, in the very heart of the retail business district, he had passed away before scarcely a dozen people knew of the terrible misfortune, and it was fully half an hour before the death of the Ex-Governor was very generally known. The expressious-cf^sorrow, once the fact was made known, ware many, spon taneous and sincere. Members o» , the bar, politicians, business men, news paper men, physicians, and all the vary ing classes brought into contact with the deceased, and who had opportuni ties to know and admire him, united in their manifestations of deepest regret at his untimely taking off, and mourned with a common grief the loss of a good citizen, a man of affai^ a earth of so prominent and useful ^ citi zen. Friends broke the terrible news to the family of the deceased, and about five o’clock the remains were removed to Mendel & Co.’s undertaking rooms, where they were prepared for burial, and later were taken to the home of the family. No. 930 Main street. After being acquainted with the facts as above set forth, the physicians were inclined to attribute the cause of death to heart failure, although they said there was a possibility that cerebral, hemorrhage was the cause. For some time the deceased ha? suffered from heart trouble to, the extent that the circulation was irregular, but no organic disease of the organ had ever been detected. Since August last the Governor bad not been ill, and had been attending to his profes sional business and his duties as Presi dent of the Wheeling Electric Railway Company, with no outward indication that be was not in a fair state of gen eral health. In August he was some what indisposed, and went to Chicago to obtain some much nAPrtpd relief from business cares, returning much Improved. He could have had no premonition of the attack on his way down street, or he would have stopped at the drug store on the corner, which he passed but a single moment before he fell to the pavement. Death came to him, so far as consciousness of it was concerned, with all the suddenness of an electric shock, and most probably entirely with out warning. John J. Jacob was a native of Hamp shire county, having been born near 'Romney, December 9, 1329. His father, Johu J. Jacob, was a native of Mary land, and a Revolutionary soldier of distinction, fcuvlng served as Lieuten ant, Quartermaster and Captain in the Sixth Regiment of the Maryland Line, a command distingulsheu fcf bard and heroic service. At the close of ihf.Revo lutionary struggle Captain Jacob mov\,£ ^ scholar and a friend. The awful sud denness of his death added to the effect of the blow. ar« many who bad met aud conversed with the deceased during the day—some of them but a very short time before his death—could scarcely for the moment believe the truth of the sad news they heard. Governor Jacob had been busy dur ing the day with tha details of his law practice, and ' particularly with the preparations for tho trial of the Reilly will case, in which he was counsel, and which is set for trial in Judgo Camp bell’s Court, on Monday morning. Dur ing the day he made an engagement with Judge R. H. Cochran to meet that gentleman and Judge Thayer Melvin, at the office of Ewiug, Melvin & Riley, on Main street, just north of Twelfth, between half-past three and four o’clock. Governor Jacob was detained at his office until about ten or twelve minutes after four, aud Judge Cochran and Judge Melviu were awaiting his cotuiug, at that time, at the office of Judge Melvin. Judge Cochran telephoned, soon after four o’clock, to Governor Jacob’s office, and ascertained that the Governor had left, and was probably on his way. as indeed be was, to keep the appointment. Gov ernor Jacob went up Market street, to the corner of Twelfth, on his way to tbe offices of Ewing, Melvin & Kile/, and turned down the south side of Twelfth street toward Main, it then being eighteen or nineteou miuutes after four. VVheu al most directly opposite the entrance to Van Keureu’s restaurant, and about the center of the pavement, the Judgo full on his back, with his head toward the { northeast and near the curb, his hat rolliug some distance away. Although fr horn Burn rr> ant? nnnnlA nnnn thu It fPP t at that hour, It happened that there was no one in the immediate vicinity, on that side of Twelfth street, at the time of the Governor’s fall, i and he lay there for a moment unheeded. Mr. C. W. Franz-. heim chanced to be in tbe office of the Franklin Insurance Compant, directly j across the street, and saw a man lying j prostrate. As no one seemed to be near, j Mr. Fransheira, accompanied hv Secre tary Henry Merkle, of the Insurance i Company, ran over, and iu an instant It j was seen that tbe victim was Governor ; Jacob. The two gentlemen named, as- i sisted by William Hare and a young ! man who drives for Kurner & Chew, picked up the prostrate man and car ried him across the street and Into the ; office of the Insurance Company. He was placed on bis back in the rear portion . of the office, his overcoat removed, and a stimulant was administered, while some of the half-dozen gentlemen who bad by this time assembled chafed his ! bands and temples, and others ran for 1 physicians. Several telephone calls were ! also quickly seut out for medical aid, but it was some five or six minutes be fore there was a response. During this time there were no signs of roturning consciousness on the part of the pa-1 tient. Once he opened his eyes, and ' as the stimulant was administered he ; gave one or two short gasps, bnt there j was no further signs of a rally, the | spasmodic respirations were not re peated, and the pulse which had beforo been weak and intermittent, fluttered faintly a few times, and life had j flod. Dr. Cushing was the first physi cian to respond, but Govenor Jacob was beyond earthly hope. Drs. HilJreth, Dickey, Hazlett, Hog$ and others came in quick succession, but the end was fully come and John J. Jacob was dead. A number of prominent citizens,friends and associates of the deceased were in formed of what bad happened, by tele phone and message, and soon there were a number of members of the bar and business men in the insurarye office, all deep ly deploring 'uddent removal from i to the banks of the North Branch of the Potomac, in Hampshire county, then Virginia, where he married the widow of that Capt. Cresap, whose fame as an i Indian fighter all along the upper Ohio Valley has decended to us. Upon the death of his first wife Capt. Jacob mar ried Susan McDavitt.a niece by marriage of Sergt. John Champ,the officer selected by General Washington to attempt the capture of Benedict Arnold. Four children were the fruits of this union, two of whom died in Infancy. Julia, one of the survivors, became the wife of Johu W. Vanderver, of Missouri, where she died in 1882, aged fifty-five yean. The second surviving child was the subsequent Governor and Judge, and the subject of this sketch. Cap tain Jacob died in 1839. aged eighty-one years, and his wife in 1880, aged eighty five. Governor Jacob was reared and re ceived his early education at Romney, afterwards studied at Carlisle, Pa., and graduated at Dickinson College, Pa., in 1849. He chose the law as his profes sion, but soon removed to Missouri, where he w’as chosen to the Chair of Political Economy in the University of Missouri, at Columbia, and which occupied his attention from 1853 until 1860. He then engaged In tho practice of law at Columbia, until 1864, when he returned to West Virginia, going to his old home at Romney, where he 9oon rose to prominence in his profession, being for a time in part nership with Col. Robert White. A thorough Democrat, he soon took an active part in politics, and in 1869 was chosen to the House of Delegates from his native county. He came rapidly to the front in the Legislature, and in 1870 be received the Democratic elimi nation for Governor, and was trium phantly elected, being t io first Demo cratic Governor of the State. One of the results of that victory for the Dem ocracy was the formation and adoption oi a new v/0DBiii>u*iuuf »uu w foremost in that ftormy period of Stato politics. Renominated In ls72 by independent Democrats and endorsed by the Republicans, bo was again elected Governor, serving un til March 4, 1877. The Capital bad been removed from Charleston to this city at the beginning of his second term, and after the termination of his office remained a citizen of this city, re suming the practice of his profession, in wuich he had attained to a high rang. In 1S79 he represented this connty in the House of Delegates, and in 1SS1 he was appointed to fill the vacant J udge shipon the bench of the Circuit Court for this Circuit, and the following year was elected for the full term next suc ceeding. On retiring from the bench, where he renewed his prevlons reputa tion as a profound legal student, he re sumed the practice of law, which he has since successfully conducted. Soon after the reorganization of the Wheeling Railway Company Gov. Jacobs was chosen its President, and was untiring in the supervision of the vast amount of work inseperable from the rehabilitation or that exten sive corporation, at the same time car rying on an extensive practice. Gov. Jacob was married in 1853 to Miss Jane baird, daughter of William Baird, of Washington, Pa., who, with a daughter, survives him. The arrangements for the funeral will probably be made known to-day, and a call for a meeting of the Bar As sociation Is also expected to be made this morning. __ Fon steady nerves and sleep use Bromo Seltzer.

Petty Thieving About the City—A Curious Miss'atemeut in the Groves Cm The case of State v. John Johnson, Indicted for the burglary at the resi dence of John Auber, on Sooth Market street, about two years ago, when a lot of valuable jewelry and other property was taken, was called in the Criminal | Court, yesterday morning, and it looked i like an all day job. with not particularly brilliant prospects for Johnson at the end of it. The end came quicker than was anticipated, however, and it was a good termination for the defendant, for he was accorded a verdict of not guilty, with the acquiescence of the Prosecuting Attorney. Mrs. Aubsr, the principal witness for the State, went on the stand and gave her testimony, positively identifying Johnson, but she unfortu nately fixed upon tho wrong date for the commission of the crime, as John son proved by abundant testimony, that upon that date he was out the Bal timore and Ohio road, many miles from this city, and the bottom was out of the proceeding and a verdict in favor of the defendant was returned. Cases Set for Trial. In the Criminal Court, yesterday. Prosecuting Attorney Howard asked the Court to set a day certain for the re-trial of the case of State v. William Groves, in whose case the jury failed to agree, Thursday evening, aud also for a day for tb.e trial of the similar case against Dr. it. L. Ashbrook. After some wrangling between counsel, dur ing which counsel lor defense made some remarks construed as foreshadow ing the arre9t of gentleman prominent in the prosecution, on the charge of perjury, the cases were set, that against Groves for January 15tb, and that against Dr. Ashbrook for January lCth. In this connection it may be proper tc state that the statement in the Intcllt genccr yesterday morning, and copied in the evening paper of last night, that Judge Jordan had directed that the ex penses of the insurance officials coming here from New York for the prosecution be disallowed, was ut terly untrue. The expenses, which averaged about $55 in each case, were promptly allowed, as beiDg right and proper, and the order book of the Clerk of the Court, which was open ail day Thursday for the inspection of news paper men, set forth the fact. In view of this, the mis-statement is rather pe culiar, but hardly more peculiar than other remarks which have been made about the case. Petty Thieving. Coal thieves are operating at Richards &. McElroy’sIower pharmacy. Tho last few nights several bushels of coal have been missed. Mrs. W. M. Kennedy, wife of tho late Captain Kennedy, who lives on Chapline street, near Thirty-seventh, had S100 taken from hei homo last Thursday night. This lady keeps a boarding house and about a week ago Charles Edwards, a cousin of Mrs. Kennedy, eamo to stay at her homo. The young man and the money are both mlssiog and it is supposed, though it. is not cer tain, that ho took the cash and fled. The money was kept up stairs. An at tempt will be made to locate youug Ed wards. Harry Hannan, raaoagor of the Wheeling Spice Works, had bis factory in East Wheeling robbed of a largo amount of spices, principally pepper, a few nights ago. Mr. Hannan has been missing spices for several days. It is believed that the robbers crawled into the Wheeling Boiler works by the coal hole, and thence to the spice works above. About ?I5 worth of goods have been taken, and there is no clew John Wenzel, the South Jacob street butcher, bad a thirty-five pound turkey stolen from his yard yesterday In broad day light. Pergons of a suspicious look, were seen eyeing the flue fowl. Mr. Wenzel’s loss is about S3, and he has no definite clue. Last Thursday night thieves went to the premises of Samuel Olsen, of upper Ben wood, and took four chichons. 'Phis makes the third time Mr. Olson’s roost has been picked within a few weeks. He had fifteen chickens in all. He Caught a Girl. Excitement prevailed last night at Thirty-third and Chapline streets. Frank Maginskio, a Polauder was tho cause of iu He was near tho river bank, and caught a daughter, aged ten of Joseph Bero, of the> neighborhood. The girl escaped his clutches, and ran and told her father. Mr. Bero caught the foreigner and brought him before ’Squire Schultze. It was her thought, that the Polander, being Intoxicated, got lost, and desired that the little girl direct him, and that he meant no crimi nal act toward her. At least that is what he said. The Polander was re leased. A Vag Trouble. About a dozen women got terribly worked up over an occurrence at Thir ty-fourth and Market streets last night. A big bum took possession of Louis Haker’s coal house, and a lady going there was terribly frightened. Her screams brought other women aud they, in a body, commanded the fellow to leave. He didn’t, however, but held the fort. A delegation of women went to ’Squire Schultze’s office and asked for a policeman. The bum held the coal bouse for several hours, when finally a policeman dragged bun out. It is not known what be was in there for. Another Man Held I p. Henry Haberfield, of 4321 Sontb Water street, was held up at his work and robbed of ?2. Mr. Haberfield is a boilermaker at Hen wood Junction. It was pay day and about 10 o’clock at night, while the boilermaker was at work, he beard a demand for his money. One bum caught him from behind and held him while the other went through his pockets, securing the money. The thieves then fled. Cloaks—Hundreds of new styles jnst opened for to-day’s trade. Gko. M.

B. Warraan delivered bia lec ture on Physical Training last evening to a large and cultured audience at the Y. M. C. A., and like all his lectures it was greatly enjoyed. He gave a re sume of all be said on tbe sabject in the different lectures and lessons given in tbe city and much more. He especially dwelt on how to breath, giving quite a number of different exercises. He is a firm believer in muscular Christianity. He does not believe any oae can be a perfect Christian unless developed men tally, morally and physically. Tbe ; gymnasium as it should be, ought to be a part or the church. He be lieved that tbe minister ought Dot to think it beneath his dignity to enter the gymnasium, and even to put od the gloves. If he djd this there would be better preaching and brighter theology. He related several amusing incidents concerning fighting clergymen, and flow their physical training, and especially muscular development, stood them in | good part. He urged all young men to give up both whisky and tobacco. The athlete and prize-fighter when in train ing is forced to give them up, because they know they are injurious.

This for cleanliness as well as health. He was not speaking against the physician. The true physi cian is ail right; be tries to prevent dis ease and be thinks the time is coming when the aim of the physician will be to give advice Instead of medicine. Why do nearly all gymnasts die com paratively young? There are many reasons. Some develop one part of the body at the expense of the vital organs; others kill themselves by eating and drinking to excess. Bow from the waist just as low as youcau go without bending the knee; then go backward as far as you can. Then both to right and left in the same manner. Then turn around at the waist from right to left and from left to right. This is the liver squeezer. These exercises are not new; they have been given in the gymnasium for years, but to no purpose. It is the persist-***, continued, regular exercise that does good. Always carry the body erect, standing over the ball of the foot. AH business men should take a fifteen minute nap after the noon meal. This should he taken sitting. Eat whatever you w’sh. If it agrees with you. If it don’t agree with you, then if you eat it you ought to be distressed. At the close of the lecture the profes sor gave a very fino exhibition of Indian club swinging, in which he showed himself au expert in this as well as In all he undertakes. The exercise was given in a costume which showed the well developed muscle to perfection. This is his last engagement in Wheel ing except to-night at G. A. R. hall, where he will be greeted by hundreds of his comrades. \ Grand Roa9t Pi* lunch, Tuesday evening, at Emel Schmitt's, 1531 Mar ket street. IN SOCIETY.
