TO HIS SLEEP ETERNAL
Ex-Governor Matthews Crosses
the Dark River.
PARALYSIS PROVES FATAL.
The DUtlnguishnd Uooiler Orator Mad
Plucky Fight Against the Grliu
Destroyer, but Succumbed
In Unequal Contest.
Wlneate, Ind., Aug. 29. At 6:30 a.
m., at the quiet Meharry homestead,
Nvhere he was taken immediately after
his BUdden affliction with paralysis,
ex-Governor Claude Matthews passed
away peacefully, surrounded by his
wife and all the members of his fam
ily. There was prayer service, accompa
nied by the singing of hymns at the
bedside of the dying governor. Mrs.
Matthews was very much affected and
stated that she would give anything in
the world if her husband would mani
fest by a single word hiB faith in
Jesus.
About 3 a. m. the minister in the
course of the services asked the dying
man if he believed in Jesus. The an
swer, as plainly as any one could ar
ticulate it, was "Yes."
The three physicians regarded this
answer as miraculous, as all agreed
that the particular part of the brain
affected by the paralysis was that gov
erning speech, and that the ex-governor
pro'ably never would have
talked had he lived. It was the only
word he spoke after he was stricken.
He immediately lapsed into a pro
found coma from which be did not re
cover before he passed away. Mrs.
Matthews will start from Wingate at
once with the remains of her hus
band. The party will go direct to Hazel
Bluff, the home of the dead ex-,jv-ernor.
Out of respect to the expressed w'sh
of ex-Governor Matthews the body
will not be taken to Indianapolis to
lie in state at the capitol.
Governor Mount and staff will at
tend the funeral at Clinton, and a
special train will leave Indianapolis
Wednesday morning to carry state of
ficials and others.

(solved to make him a conspicuous candi
date for the Democratic presidential nom
ination. The state convention was enthu
siastically In favor of his nomination by
the national Democratic convention which
met In Chicago In July, 1800.
Mr. Matthews Indorsed the action of the
national Democracy und Immediately began
a most brilliant canvass for Bryan and
fc'cnall. He never faltered for an Instant,
but continued actively at work until the
polls Mere closed In November of that
J ear.
In January, 18C8, he married Martha B.
"Whltcoinb, daughter of the late James

The Cincinnati Leaf Tobacco Warehouse Com
pany, in its circular for the week, has the follow
ing: The sales havp continued about the same the
past week In quantity and price. The sales arc
mostly confined to the manufacturers buyers,
and are being shipped. The speculators are of
the opinion that the prospects of the growing
crop will have a tendency to weaken prices, and
they will not carry heavy stocks, but will keep
close to shore Jumil the new orop is ready for
market.
There has been a strong competition for tho
colory lugs and tho lower grades, and tho prices
have been some higher, while the best grades of
leaf have remained about the samo, with no ad
vance. They are not selling in proportion to the
medium and low grades, and it is a question if
tho manufacturers will need a sufficient quan
tity of theso best grades to advance prices very
materially before the new crop is marketed.
There are a few buyers who still argue that tho
shortage of tho 1897 crop will cause a sufficient
scarcity to ndvauce prices, but as the season is so
far advanced wo can not see much opportunity
for any large advance, and it is very dangerous
to carry old stock over Into the new shipments.
Tho crop Is growing out nicely, and if the
weather is favorable for cutting and curing wo
may expect one of tho best crops grown for
years.

"SIGNING OF THE PROTOCOL."
Photos of tlie Noted Personages As
Historic Document Was Signed.
the
'The Signing of the Protocol" is the
name of a large photograph taken by
Miss Frances Benjamin Johnston at the
White House on Friday, August 19th.
The group formed just as they were
placed when that document which de
manded cessation of hostilities between
the United States and Cuba, received the
signatures of Secretary Day and Ambas
sador Cambon.
Miss Johnston secured two views, one
with Mr. Day at the table in the act of
affixing his signaturo and the other with
Monsieur Cambon writing his name.
"So important was it to have this his
toric picture preserved for future refer
ence that Secretary Day returned from
Atlantic City, recalled by telegraph, and
Minister Cambon relinquished going to
New York, to witness the naval parade.
The President and all officials who wit
nessed the signing formed part of tbiB
group.
Miss Johnston, the artist, is a relative
of Marie Decca, the noted singer.
