U. S. SENATOR CLAY SUMMONED BY DEATH
i
THE END CAME UNEXPECTEDLY
WHILE SENATOR WAS TALK
ING WITH HIS SON,
A NOTABLE CAREER ENDED
A. S. Clay Had Beer. Representative
of Georgia in the United States
Senator for Thirteen Years.
Atlanta.—United States Senator Al
exander Stepheps Clay, 57 years old.
died at a sanitarium in this city of
arterial schlerosis producing dilation
of the heart. His death was as
peaceful as it was sudden.
He had been talking but a few min
utes before to his son, Herbert, who
was in constant attendance upon his
father.
He ceased speaking, closed his eyes,
gave a slight gasp and almost in a
moment had passed away.
Although it has been long known
that Senator Clay’s health was in a
ALEXANDER S. CLAY.
United States Senator from Georgia.
precarious condition, and although his
friends believed he could not ftite
much longer, the suddenness of his
death gave them great surprise and
shock.
Senator Clay came to the sanitarium
on Tuesday, November 1, with the
announced intention of resting and
building up his health and strength
preparatory to returning to Washing
ton for the opening of congress in
December.
Nevertheless, he was not unmindful
pf his malady, arterial schlerosis, and
the consequent affection of his heart,
due to the blood pressure. It was
this affection, producing dilation of
the heart, that caused his death.
The funeral was held in Marietta,
Ga., Wednesday at noon, at the Meth
odist church.
Senator Clay is survived by his
wife/ who was Miss Fannie White of
Lithia firings, daughter of A. J.
White, a prominent farmer and Con
federate soldier; by five son 3, Her
bert Clay, who is mayor of Marietta;
A- S. Clay, Jr.; Frank Clay, who is
a cadet at the United States military
academy at West Point; Ryburn Clay
and Lucius Clay, and by one daugh
ter, Miss Evelyn Clay, who is at a
school in Washington, D. C.
Senator Clay is also survived by
his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs.
W. J. Clay, who live on a farm in
Cobb county. Mr. Clay is now 81
years old and hie wife is nearly that
age. Senator Clay was the oldest of
their six children.
The death of Senator Clay, who for
thirteen years has represented, in
part, the state of Georgia, in the Unit
ed State senate, will send a pang of
regret through the heart of every man
now living who was associated with
him in that distinguished body.
A man of unswerving honesty, of in
defatigable industry, fearless, aggres
sive and capable, he was a worthy
representative of a proud and inde
pendent people in the nation’s highest
lawmaking body.
If there is one trait in his charac
ter which deserves to be emphasized
above all the rest, it was his absolute
honesty. This quality was recognized
by his colleagues on the floor, as well
as by the occupants of the press gal
elry. There was never any taint of
suspicion about any vote that Sena
tor Clay ever cast, whether on the
' Sunday Ad Contracts Void.
Kansas City, Mo. —Contracts for ad
vertising in newspapers published on
Sunday were declared void by Judge
J. M. Johnson in the Kansas City
court of appeals. The Sunday labor
laws of this state, the court held,
were being violated when such news
papers were printed, and, therefore,
any contract for work in connection
with the publication would also nec
essarily be illegal. The decision was
handed down in the case of George
W. Knapp & Co., owners of the St.
Louis Republic, against Culbertson.

terests.
Next to his inherent honesty was
his absolute loyalty to the people of
Georgia. His heart heat close to the
heart of the common people. He felt
their needs; he knew the workings
of their mind; he appreciated keenly
their point of view. And well he
might.
Alexander Stephens Clay was born
on a farm in Cobb county. In his
youth he was a typical backwoods
man; an awkward, ungainly, country
boy with nothing but an active mind
and a vigorous body. But the fires of
ambition burned even then, and from
his graduation at the high school in
Palmetto, Ga., he wanted to be a
senator.
He died crowned with the highest
honor that Georgia con confer upon a
citizen. No other man in the 121
years of Georgia's history, save only
his colleague, Senator Bacon, has
ever been elected to three terms in
the United States senate.
Mr. Clay was first named senator
on October 7, 1596, to succeed Hon.
John B. Gordon, after one of the most
exciting contests for that office ever
held in Georgia. He was opposed by
Capt. Evan P. Howell, editor of The
Constitution, and Gov. W. Y. Atkin
son. There were other contestants in
the beginning, but the race soon nar
rowed down to these three. For &
long while the outcome hung in the
balance, with the indications favoring
Atkinson, Howell and Clay alternating
for second place. Finally, through the
action of Captain Howell In throwing
his support to Clay, the latter was
eleeted.
Mr. Clay was re-elected in 1903 and
again in 1909, and his third term
would have expired on March 3, 1915.
It can be said with entire truth
that never did the people of Georgia
have a more honest, a more devoted,
a more scrupulously careful, industr
ious and honest representative in the
senate of the United States than Alex
ander Stephens Clay.

Guadalajara, Mexico. —Carlos B. Ca
rothers, a locally prominent real es
tate dealer, shot and killed Jesus
Loza, a 14-year-old Mexican boy, and
wounded Prudencio Chavez, a gen
darme, in defending his home against
a riotous attack by Mexicans. Ca
rothers surrendered to the authori
ties at the first opportunity, and was
lodged in the state penitentiary.
Notwithstanding the entire police
force, foot and mounted, and the
Tenth regiment of cavalry, were call
ed out, rioting was suppressed only
after three hours of vigorous efforts
and after considerable additional dam
age to property had been done. The
affair was a continuation of the pre

workmen.

be no further demonstrations in this
city against the citizens of a friend

disturbances are over for good, and
all and under no circumstances will I
permit a mass meeting of any nature
by the students or any other body."
In these words, Gov. Guillermo Lan
da y Escandon of the Federal district
gave assurances in an interview to
the press of a continuance of the
quiet which has prevailed for two days
following the recent disturbances in
this city.
An exchange of messages between
President Diaz and President Taft oc
curred during the day, it was said, the
former giving assurances of the pur

disorders and the latter expressing
confidence in the representations made

sources a report has reached the State
department that Antonio Rodriguez,
the alleged Mexican who was burned
at the stake at Rock Springs, Texas,
by a mob, was really born in New
Mexico. If this should prove to be
the case, of course the Mexican gov

Express Strike Ends.
New York. —The strike of drivers
and helpers employed by the trans
continental express companies was
formally declared off. The close of
the strike was brought about by the
New Jersey strikers, who voted to
accept the terms upon which the com

They had rejected the terms, but a
conference of the strike eladers with
Mayor Wittpenn of Jersey City and
President Towne of the New York
Merchants' association, cleared the
way for the agreement.

Twelve Days In Well.
After straddliing a pole thirty feet
below- the surface of the earth and
within three feet of eight feet of wa
ter for twelve days In an old, unused
well near Bagley, In Johnson county,
N. C., a young German was found still
alive and in the act of eating a frog.
The young chap was on his way out
to Bagley when he met two men,
Charley Creech and Doc Jones, who
were apparently intoxicated. They
threatened the German, who thor
oughly frightened, took to his heels.
For ten days a search had been made
for the missing man, and Creech and
Jones were about to be arrested for
his supposed murder. A searching
party carelessly looked down the well
as they were passing by It and dis
covered the man, who had been there
twelve days. He had fallen into the
well and lodged on the cross pole.
Sure Index to “Home State.”
"Pronounce the word ’corner,’ each (
of you, and I shall tell from what
country or section you hail.”
The speaker was conversing with a
mixed group of men from widely sepa-'
rated parts of America. By the man-*
ner in which they voiced the word,'
whether "kawnah," “cor-r-ner-r,” or
something else, the chairman of the
contest picked out their home states
accurately. One of the men hailed
from England and ho was swiftly
identified, too.
It looked like a clever feat, and it
was, but the smart one's admirers for
got that he had been weighing their
varied forms of speech for at least
half an hour and had made his deduc
tions before launching the word stunt.

Irony Lost Case for Lawyer.
In his early days at the bar the late!
Lord Bowen prosecuted a prisoner who|
had been caught in a house at night
crawling downstairs with his boots off
and carrying portable property. The
evidence was so overwhelming that
Bowen ventured to indulge in a little
irony and remarked on the thoughtful
ness of the prisoner in removing his
jshoes, thus disturbing nobody, and in
(selecting only solid silver articles from
the plate basket, so that the family had
enough forks and spoons left for break
fast. The jury was so impressed by
•these extenuating circumstances that
it acquitted the prisoner. Bowen never
employed irony again when addressing
a jury..
Zebras for Domestic Use.
There is a big scheme on foot for
the capture of zebras for domestic
purposes. The animals, which are to
be broken to harness and saddle, are
said to be Immune from the ravages
of the tsetse fly, and In districts in
fected with that scourge they should
prove much more valuable than either
horses or mules. Although the zebra
iis one of the most difficult of the
equine race to break, these beautiful
(animals are not infrequently seen on
the South African veldt running with
(a span of mules in a transport wagon,
while a few years ago one used to see

through Hyde Park by a member of
the Rothschild family.
