the object of the tondcrost cans aril solici

The lint break in the united circle was the
ilontl , of Mrs. Lord , which occurred lacutn <
bur 10 , l S'i , after the family had again re
turned to town alter their Miinmur nnd au
tumn travol. Mrs. Harrison was along limn
recovering from this olo\v. ThoslsU'rs were
gro.itly attached and were always together
as much as possible.
At the beginning of the grippa epidemic ,
Mr * . Harrison sharotl thu fatuof her enllro
household , s.ivo llio president He fore shu
was taken down , hmvovor , she nursed all
llio rott , oven her lillle fjr.iudehlldron who
were seriously ill. Miivcr.il tlinoi after she
mlTered again from all the painful symptoms
of the llrst nltack , and ospacl.illy so last
spring , a vcar ago , up-ia hnr roltirn Irom
California , whoa she brought Uncle with her
a troublesome cough.
Ailhough she had another bid spoil whllo
at Capo May last summer , she returned in
llio nulutnn with her poncr.it health so much
irnuiovod that she no looker 'allowed her
family to look upon her as a semi-invalid.
Throughout the winter she went about her
U'liul duties with her old time vigor , ann it
was but seldom that shu did not appear at
thn social functions of the mansion. Com
ing on the spring her extreme pallor showed
thai she was not fooling well as usual , hut she
did not glvo up until the day came when she
was unable to rise from her bed
During the Lenten duvs last spring thera
was sueti a pressure of callers upon her lhat
she sot aside certain afternoons in ouch week
to see callers. She was generally present ,
but. if not was represented by the ether
ladies nf the household. At the very last
date , however , of tlm series , Wednesday ,
April H , hho w.is in tno Dluo parlor and hold
u "brilliant reception fiom 5 to I ! o'clock.
The afternoon was excessively warm and all
the doors and windo.vs were opened , tsho
coughed nearly every time she spoke und
seemed to busulToiiug considerably. That
day she was very ho.irso aud her physician
w.is summoned.
Hnr illni'ss boc.iu that night. Hut few ot
her friends have scon her sinco. For weeks
thi ! invalid was not conscious of anything
going on outside of her own room mid , in
will Uo remembered , she knew homing nl all
of llio events of the Minneapolis convention
nor of Mr. Blame's resignation until Iho
ri'nominalion of Mr. Harrison was an assured
fact. After lout to ngain reuse her interest
and io keep her mind from dwelling
too much oa her own condition , the
doctor decided tliut tlu daily papois
DC road lo her , aim in fact all the ordinary
news of the day bo discussed in her pres
ence. Toward the last of her stay in thu
citv there wore many days when she was
able to go oul riding. Shu was always car-
nod down stalls to her arriagn by Sergeant
Ivciiuoy of Arctic fame , ono the doorKeepers -
Keepers for whom she nad a
special liking. Wlioti she returned from
theso.short drives she w.is carried upstairs
again. The day she Inf t town for Loon Lrtko
there were Ian who saw her who over sup
posed that she would return alive.
In appearance , Mrs. Harrison wns a typo
of matronly bdailly. In ligurn she showed
thu geiicioslty of nature , and in mind na
ture's equal beniicuncp , expanded by the
training in thu acquirement of n liberal
education , drawn from the uroadcs oppor
tunities. A lavish growth of hair , silvered
with tlm t lire.ulh of a llttlo over half it cen
tury of lifo ami Healing in curly waves over
a well-snaped head and ondiug in a graceful
coil , bor regular features and dnrk , " ex
pressive p.ycs formed a picture of typical
womanhood , She bud a voice sottf-nod by
Iho instincts of a gentle nnturc and a gift of
conversallun which , while animated , was
thoughtful.
The tastes of Mrs. HnrrUon were in the
direction of art. Her woiks lu walcr colors
are thti evidences ol tier gill'and application
to ncr tuvoiitii rcciL'.tiion.
Mrs. Harrison was by nntuto ulronglv do-
rucMlc and shr.iult from notoriety. The a
traits wor ! i little , if at all , modified uy her
rssidcuco in tin white bouse nnd liur'proud
position us the tirst lany of the land. For
Her friends she hud always a grmcrons uel
come , Imtsho did not relish llio ser.utiny of
the critical ami coldly curious , although
much of ibis she was perforce from her post-
tinn , obliged to eiulnro. bho was always equal
to every social demand , and , by her winning
manner und sympathetic utterauces , suc-
uooucd iu making and retaining an un

The ICvonlng Slur of 'Washington , in an

odltorln ! contains. . LTlifc dMiiocrfttlo party Is
today sending millions/if copies of campaign
litnrnluro through .tlio , snails as second class
matter and that , thlog has licou going on
right along for weeks , I will prove what I
say right here. Lbo'k'iu this. " nnc' ho picked
up ncopy of the au'pplomont of tbo Now York
World , ' 'Thoro Is n cafnpalgn document. It
can't be classed as any Hung olso. Hrad the
headlines and tbo nature of the Mioot cannot
bo inlsundorstood , "
It was an olght colihna , four p.ijo supple
ment of the Noiv Vork World , aud on each
p.igo there was a double column sc.iro huad ,
followed by a lot of campaign rot on free
trade and the alleged tariff roubory. Thu
onllrosticat was lilted with tha rankest sort
ot domocrjtio dogma.
" ow tlio postal laws provide , " continued
the post mas or , "that all supplements Io
newspapers must bo folded and mailed with
thu regular Issun of the paper to which they
liolong In order to bo ndmitiod us second
class maltor. Whuro those supplements nro
malloil separately or alone they must bo
classed ns third class matter ; thai is , they
rome titular tliu head pi maltor lhat cannot
bo received at tlio tale ot 'J cents a pound.
Now lot us sou how the democratic party
evades this provision ot tlio law and stic-
co.tnU In getting tins smmlomonl circulated
all over the country ns second class
mnt'ur These supplements arc sent to
the country papers of the democratic
persuasion nud are folded In them just ns
though they wore supplements of the papers
with which they are taken to iho oftlco. Iu
this way thov como underlie hoid of matter
circulated by news agents , for these country
publishers claim that they buy the supple
ments , and perhaps they do. There. Is a sec
tion ot the law which permits publisher * or
nuws agents to purchase second class matter
and circulate it along with the same class of
matter which they publish themselves under
Iho head of nnd at the rate ot second class
matter. This supplement was sent to mo
tbo other day by n country postmas
ter who wanted to know whether or
not such maltor could bo received nt
second class rates. I replied that It could and
must bo received undjr the provision I have
] ust ( juoled. No > v , 1 do not wish to cast any
rolluclions UDOII Iho domocrallc commllteo
for taking advantage of lhat provision , Ihoy
have n right lo do so , as 1 rend iho law , but
-It is a very unjust and unprincipled piece of
work on the pirt of the World-Il orMd lo
allege tliut \\nuauiakor , or anybody else
connected with the postolllco department ,
mis com milled any acls of discrimination
against the denuicrallc party in the classllisi
cation ot the campaign llleraturo sent out by
the national committees. I know nothing
about Iho nook spoken of In tbo editorial as a
republican campaign document , hut I do
know that the democratic ! national committee
is Hooding this slalo with thcso Now York
World supplements ut a second class rate ,
nnd any man can see that they are campaign
