DEACON, Butler, Mo THE CONTRACT NOTE RACKET Sharpers Abroad Among Wheelers. Last week a meek, innocent !ook- ing fellow was preambulating Davis township, making inquiries for some prominent influential wheeler of the neighborhood. He was cited to Os- gar Adkins, to whom he made his business known. He had a patent folding back-action iron fence post, and wanted Mr. Adkins to take a township agency. The latter thought the shortest way to getrid of the meek and mild sugar tongued fellow was to accept the agency, as the fel- low promised to put up a specimen of his patent in front of his yard. He signed what he supposed. and what he says purported to be sgent’s contract. Afterwards he } met his father inlaw, Uncle Jimmy | .Arnold, to whom he spoke of the | transaction. i “Are you sure you didn't sign 2) paper that will turn up as a note,” | said Uncle Jimmy? \ “Nothing of the kind—it was only | a contract,” said Oscar. | “TI thought you were too smart to be taken in by alslick tongued strang- er, in the face of the experience of | others, and the repeated warnings of the Henry County Democrat, and aow look out in a few days to hear that you are called upon to pay a xote by some money shaver?” said Vnele Jimmy. “No fear of that,” said Oscar. But as Uncle Jimmy. told our re- porter Wednesday within afew days Oscar received a notice to call ona party in Clinton on business. He stalled and was confronted with a$10 note againsi him. Further, he pro- tested that he had not contracted any such paper, when he was asked to make an affidavit to that effect which he did. He wasthen told that the | parties would be arrested on the affidavit, but if it should turn out that Ae did sign such a note, they in turn might prosecute him for false swear- 4ag, but he could settle the matter by giving a new note. Recognizing that he was infor a fee for having his wisdom teeth cut he took the 2d- wiceof his neighbor, Botkin and signed a new note. Continuing Mr. Arnold said: “And I understand that there are some thirty or forty more of the same kind of notes in Clinton either bought at a heavy discount or left for collection. an of notes signed by some hook or erook under the forms of contracts. —Clinton Democrat.

Just previous to the sinking spell which terminated fatally the general appeared to recognize several friends. Simon Cameron was Lincoln's first Secretary of War, was minister to | Russia during 1862 and was four! times elected to the United States | senate. He was a prominent candi- date in the eonvention that elected Lincoln and would have been nomi- nated for the Vice-Presidency, but for a lack of harmony in the Penn- sylvania delegation. He began life as a printer and was | editing a country newspaper when 21 years old. Left an orphan while | a child he began learning his trade } at the age of 9.

In the original draft of his annual report to congrss in December 1861, he bold- ly advocated arming the fugitive | slaves but this was modified on con- sultation with the cabinet. Mr. Cameron resigned the secre- taryship in January, 1862, and was at once appointed minister to Rus- sia. His large influence tended ina large measure to secure the friend- ship of that powerful nation during the civil war. His official conduct ina certain transaction was cencur- ed by the house of representative in April, 1862; but Mr. Loncoln im- mediately sent a message assuming with other heads of department, an } equal share in the responsiblity. He resigned as minister to Russia No- vember 8, 1862, and remained at home until 1866, when he was elect- ed United States senator and appoint- ed chairman of the committee on for- eign affairs on retirement of Mr. Sum nergin 1872. He was sent to the senate for the fourth time in 1873, but resigned in favor of his son. During the years of his active pub- lic life he was a powerful political | leader, practically dictating the pol- iey of the republican party in Penn- sylvania, and weilding a strong in- fluence over its policy in the nation | at large. Mr. Cameron was born in Lancas- ter county Pa. in 1799. March 8, last, was his 90th birthday. HIS SUCCESSOR. Mr. Cameron's son, James Donald, popularly known as “Don” Cameron is now 58 hears old. He has been in the United States senate contine uously since his father’s retirement in 1877, and his present term does not expire until 1891. | ing and flags are at half-mast. HIS POLITICAL CAREER. } In 1345 he went to the senate for | the fi: Mrs. Hayes, Lucy Keeler, Mrs. A. H. Miller and the physicians. All night long the sorrowing fam- ily watched around the bedside. Mrs. Hayes lay motionless, and but for the faint breathing and the weak fluttering of the pulse there were no signs of life. The anxious watchers waiting only for the inevitable end, were bowed with grief and scarcely ja word was spoken the long night through. The physicians kept in the background, and the family were alone with their loved one. In vain they hoped fora slight rally that might come before death so that she could recognize and speak to them. | As morning dawned the hold on life grew weaker and weaker, and final- ly the spirit took its flight. Ina voice choked with grief, the physi- cian announced that the end had come and the family’s long vigil closed in prostration and grief. Gen. Hayes and his four grown sons, Burchard, Webb, Rud and Scott, were deeply affected while Fannie is nearly prostrated with grief aud her long sleepless watch at her mother’s bedside.
