Free SHver Candidate for May or of Greater New York Stricken With Apoplexy. New York, Oct 29. (Special) Henry George died suddenly this morning at his residence in this city, at 4 o'clock, having been stricken with apoplexy.

Henry George was the free silver candidate for mayor of Greater New York, and had up to nearly the hour of his death prosocutod a most vigorous and absorbing campaign. Last light Mr. George made four speeches and retired to his bed at a late hour in an exhausted condition. The heated campaign and its attendant excitement are supposed to have contributed largoly to the cause of his death. 'One before Henty George was a can BEST GOODS.

Judge Frank Ives of District Court of Crookston, says: For sometime I have used Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets with seeming great benefit, with few exceptions, I have not been so free from indigestion in twenty-five years. George W. Roosevelt, U. 8. Consul to Brussels, Belgium: Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, safe, pleasant to take, convenient to carry, give keen appetite, perfect digestion.

E. Ransom, Hustonvillo, I was distressed and annoyed for two years with throwing up food, often two or three times a day; had no certainty of retaining a meal if I ate one. Four boxes of the tablets from my druggist have fully cured mo." I find them pleasant to take, convenient to carry. Rov. G.

D. Brown, Mondovl, Wis. The effect of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is simply marvelous; a quite hearty dinner of broiled beef steak causes no distress since I began their use. Over six thousand people in the state of Michigan alone in 1891 were cured of stomach troubles by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Full-sized package may be found at all druggists at 50 cents.

Richard Croker was roundly hissed at Tammany hall last night at the first large meeting of the campaign where the Tammany man ager nas made nts appearance, it was at the big meeting attended by Mayor Harrison of Chicago, and 300 Cook county democratic leaders. Croker's plan was to bring them here. He was chairman of the committee that welcomed them and he sat proudly upon the plat form when the meeting opened. The audience was a highly enthusiastic one. Mayor Harrison was on the platform, and the Chicago delegation occupied front seats in the body of the hall.

Ow ing to the repeated interruptions at the Tammany gatherings, care was taken to keep Henry George shouters out of the hall. The Chicago men were warmly greeted by the crowds in the galleries. There was renewed cheering when Mayor Harrison appeared on the platform accompanied by Richard Croker. One of the most remarkable things that has ever occurred at a Tammany hall mcetingJookpliice just thenlSome one called for three cheers for Richard Croker. The response was a storm of hisses that swept over the hall.

Not a cheer was given, and the man who called for them thought he would try again. In a very loud-voice hecalled agaia for three cheers for Richard Croker. There was a feeble response this time, but the cheers were drowned by hissing. Croker heard the expressions of disapproval of himself and he retired to a seat far back on tho stage. Mayor Harrison was introduced to the audience.

He said: "In no sense do I make a pretense to being a public speaker. I am only a plain business man.

1013 to 1019 Lincoln, Neb. I Tha republicans of Lincoln and Lancaster county have listened long and patiently to the howl of populism. They have forced their ears to the earth and have heard Bob Malono, who can hardly read or write, ask to be made sheriff of Lancaster county. Do the people who believe in the constitution of the United States, the constitution of Nebraska and good government propose to elect a State executive officer for Lancaster county who is almost wholly without education and who is not in favor of the enforcement of the lawt What representative of the pop party can enforce the law when his party platform declares against injunction though it be a constitutional provision? The republicans of Lancaster county are asked to support one J. 8.

Bishop for treasurer of the county who has not paid his tax since '94 and who today, like the pop candidate for sheriff, stands upon Bryan's platform of "government without injunction." The business depression which Mr. Bishop's party brought upon the country is responsible for Mr. Bishop's financial oondition.but as a reform candidate he asks to be given possession of the most important office in the county in the face of the fact that he has failed in the financial management of his own business and also in the face of the fact that the pop party, which he represents, has made an inglorious failure in the management of the state government and county government within the state. It is a matter of record that the pop candidate for county treasurer of Lancaster county has failed to pay his taxes for three years and that he asks now to reform an office which the republican party itself has placed upon the highest plane of integrity and business management when he himself has, as yet, failed to bring his own private business affairs through the hard times for which populism is so eminently responsible. A man for sheriff, -without education or business qualifications? A pop for county treasurer who has made his own private business a failure? And both who do not believe in the constitution of the United States, are hardly the public servants sought and desired by the people of Lincoln and Lancaster county for the high offices of sheriff and treasurer.

Fusion having given up all hope of electing these officers now center their forces upon Paul Holm for register of deeds, who seeks to elevate himself to this position by maligning the republican candidate. This is done simply to provide a populist nest in the court house for a man whohas always foughtrthe republican party and who is no more entitled to the support of the citizens of Laocasterjiounty than George whom he has attempted to malign and traduce. The slanderous attack of populism supported by John Harrup, that George Woods attempted to secure his consent to change the records of his office, is infinitely more damaging to Mr. Harrup than to Mr. Woods.

Why wasn't the charge made in the convention? Why was it delayed until a few days before elect ion? Simply because it was planned by a HORRIBLE. Young Girl Burned to Death by Blazing Coal Oil Birmingham, Oct. 29. Ella Barnes and Bessie Thomas, two sixteen-year-old cotton factory operatives, who met at a friend's house at a social last night, quarreled over their mutual regard tot the same youth. The Thomas girl advanced on the Barnes girl with a pair of scissors.

Miss Barnes threw a lighted lamp at her adversary. The lamp ex ploded and burning oil enveloped the unfortunate creature. The gatheiiig fled in horror. The Barnes girl walked out the dooron her antagonist and laughed as her agonizing cries pierced the air. Miss Thomas was burn-ed to a crisp before rescue came.

Her murderess is in hiding. "li0WSTHISJ F. J. CHENEY Toledo, 0. We, the undersigned, have known F.

coward, breathed into public notice by a coward and an enemy to the republican party and was intended to be used in a cowardly way for a cowardly purpose. Republicans can not afford to listen to it or give it the slightest serious consideration for it is a campaign lie. Who wants Rainbolt for county judge? Nobody but the Bryanites and the pops who do not believe in a government that governs or aconstitution that protects the people. Mr. Rainbolt is another of that large and select party of office seokers who failed to make first base while in the republican party and turned pop with the hope that he could make a base hit in running for county judge.

He is one of those very nice men, too good for most anything on eartb, and this is his largest claim for political pre ferment. Long since he decided that he was too good for the republican party and sought better company with Mart Howe, Edmisten, Tibbies, Schwind, Price and Dahlman who has found it convenient to live under two names. This is the man that asks the people of Lancaster county to turn down Judge Cochran and give Rainholt a job. Will they do it? Sane people do not show such depraved political judgement in the selection of county officers and Lan caster county people usually know what they are doing. The candidate for county supori ntend' ent is the peer of any educator in the state.

He is strong in capability, man ly in purpose, and noted for his kindly offices among the patrons of the common sc hools. His speeches during the campaig as well as his conduct in his personal canvass before and since the convention have been that of a gentleman, a cultivatsd scholarly man and these qualities have placed him far in the lead among the people. He is already elected with the entire republican ticket. At Ullli Bait, There was a meeting called at Little Salt last night, to be hold in the school-house of District 122, under the banner of the pope, who did not stop at "pop-pin," but exploded. John J.

Angleton was the speaker, booked for an address. Being of short range as all pops are, he was foolish to tackle the job of replying to the address given by R. D. Stearns a week ago at the same Mr. Angle-ton had not gone far with his remarks until hs began a series of tirades against Mr.

Stearns and other republicans as well as the whole party. The conduct on the part of Angleton was brought to a close because there were twenty-seven republicans and seven populists present, most of these having the principle to say that Angleton was away off- his bnse by making such foolish statements, that every one present knew fully well that it was simple campaign rot.

But it is as an author that George will be best remembered by tho people. lie wrote "Progress and Poverty" and a number of other works bearing directly on economic questions. What effect his death will have upon the result of the campaign is the absorbing question today in New York. A concensus of opinion of all parties is that it will materially holp Van Wyck, Tammany's candidate, although the republicans expect to fall heir to some of the George votes. STAYS ON TICKET Fillmore County Pops Dare Not Remove the Name of "Rev." P.

H. Hines. Geneva, Oct. 29. (Special.) The populists have practically conceded the defeat of Rev- P.

H. Hines for county superintendent He would have been taken off the ticket, but it was decided by the committee to be too late to at tempt it, so Rev, nines Unpermitted to continue his brazen campaign under the plea that if he did fall into bad company in Lincoln he did so innocently. He is busy on the streets explaining his conduct and appealing to populists to support him. It is also evident that the populists are trading him to defeat republicans against whom they are centering their strength. It's no use says a prominent populist, "I won't vote for a man with Hines' reputation, and there are many independent voters who will not support him." The people will not express themselves in every instance but there is a general belief that Rev.

Hines is morally ds-qualified for the office he seeks and will be defeated. Tomorrow is the last day to register. SCARED AWAY Shrill Screams of Mrs. Allens-by Frighten an Evil Minded Burglar This morning about 1 o'clock Mrs. Edw.

W. Allensby, who lives at U43 North Twentieth, was awakened from her slumbers by a noise, which sounded like som one walk ing iirthe room. UpH on getting up and investigating she saw a man standing in the center of the room. She screamed at the top of her voice ''bloody murder" and ran out of the house to the residence or E. E.

Carr who lives in the same block. Upon reaching Mr. Carr's house she fell in a faint upon the porch, which awakened Mr. Carr and upon going out on the porch found her there trying to explain what had occured. Arthur Dewitt was afterward called and in company with Mr.

Carr they went to the house of Mrs. Allensby and found that the burglar had gained entrance into the house by means of cutting the glass frdm a back window, but had made his escape before the gentlemen reached the house. Nothing of value has yet been missed by Mrs. Allensby, or has any' clue of the" robber been found. Tomorrow the last day to register.

The passocratic party had made ar rangements to have Champ Clark in this state for a few speeches, but they have called him off. Clark was recently hauled into police court for having been in a row with a colored man, in which the pop, howler wielded a razor with good effect, and whittled large shavings off the carcass of the Laws and Etlmisten and Frank Ho.ia were afraid Champ would get on a tantrum5 hero, so they cancelled the dates.
