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. Iseme, Ga., Joins in Express Fight. i Rome, Ga. —Dissatisfied with the rates, service and policy of the South [rn Express company, the Manufac turers and Merchants’ association of Floyd county has joined with organi .ations over the country in a petition or investigation by the interstate com nerce commission of the rates and practices of the express companies of the United States. The petition is headed by the commercial organiza tions of New York and Boston, and is joined by those of every large city <n -ths United .States, tariff, on railroad measures, cr on any other legislation affecting the big in 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. AMERICANS PROTECT HOMES MEXICANS MOB MEET WITH RE SISTANCE WHEN ATTACKING AMERICANS. Carlos B. Carothers Fires on Mexican Mob, Killed a Boy and Then Wounded a Policeman. 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 vious night’s violence by students and workmen. Mexico City, Mexico. —“There will be no further demonstrations in this city against the citizens of a friend ly nation while 1 am governor. The 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 pose and ability of the Mexican gov ernment to prevent a recurrence of the disorders and the latter expressing confidence in the representations made by the Mexican executive. A strong force of police is on guard at the American embassy. Washington. Through unofficial 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 ernment would be obliged to with draw its protest and demand for rep aration. It would leave the United States the aggrieved party in tlm ri oting and anti-American demonstra tions in Mexico. 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 panies offered to take back the men. 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.

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. Light Attracts Customers. In the downtown section of a city the theater audiences come and go through two avenues leading to car lines. A haberdasher has a shop in a side street between these two chan nels of travel, at a much more reason able rent than he would have to pay 'on the avenues. Study of the condi tions convinced him that the theater-! goers took those avenues, not because they were especially convenient, nor "as a matter of habit, but simply be! cause they were light. When he put! up an electric sign big enough V, lighlj his section of the dark side street he diverted enough travel past his win-i dows every night to increase mate rially the daily sales. —Saturday Eve ning Post. 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 ii team of zebras being “tooled" through Hyde Park by a member of the Rothschild family.
