GEN. WHEELER
CROSSES RIVER
Valiant Veteran of Three Wars
Succumbs to Grim Reaper.
NOTABLE CAREER ENDED
Life Crowned With Brilliant Laurels
Brought to Close by Attack of
Pneumonia in Brooklyn N. Y.
General Joseph Wheeler, the fam
ous confederate cavalry leader, aiiu
a brigadier general of the United
States army in the war with Spain,
died at 5:35 o’clock Thursday after¬
noon at the home of his sister, Mrs.
Sterling Smifc, in Brooklyn, N. Y.
The veteran of three wars was 69
years old, hut, in spite of his age,
there was hope until Wednesday of
his recovery from the attack of pneu¬
monia, which caused his death.
General Wheeler was taken ill
six days before his demise at his sis¬
ter's home, where he had been liv¬
ing recently. He contracted a severe
cold, which developed into pleurisy
and pneumonia. From the first his
age told against him, but the family
did not give up hope until Wednes¬
day night, when the disease was
found to have affected both lungs.
General Wheeler’s immediate rela¬
tives were all with him. His daugh¬
ters, Mrs. W. J. Harris and the Misses
Anne, Lucille and Carrie Wheeler,
had been summoned from the south,
and arrived early in the week. His
son, Joseph Wheeler, Jr., United
States Army, now stationed at West
Point, was also present, as well as
General Wheeler's sister, Mrs. Ster¬
ling Smith, and her son.
The family were summoned to the
bedside of the patient at midnight
Wednesday night, when the doctors
in consultation concluded that the
end was but a matter of hours. The
general was then awake, and con¬
scious, and his mind was apparently
active. He seemed to know that
death was approaching, and, though
too weak to speak he succeeded in
giving signs of "Ups and en
couSigement to his child re*
Later the general sank intb a peace¬
ful slumber, and at the r .'quest of
the doctors, the family quietly with¬
drew from the sick man’s bedside.
General Wheeler was never again
more than semi-conscious. He lin¬
gered until Thursday evening, and
passed away quietly.
Sorrow Felt in Washington.
A Washington special says: The
news of the death of General Joe
Wheeler causes universal sorrow in
the national capital, where so many
years of his life were spent, and
where he w'as greatly beloved.
No man who had ever been in pub¬
lic life during the past twenty years
was more beloved than this gallant
little soldier statesman. As a mem
her of congress he was noted, during
his sixteen years of service, as the
most painstaking and hard working
member of the house, ever on the
alert in the interests of his constit¬
uents.
He was never too busy, however,
to do a kindly act. He was the most
loyal of friends, but he was always
ready to help whether the one in
need was of the circle of his ac¬
quaintance or not. He is one of the
few men, perhaps the only officer,
who had the distinction of serving in
three wars—the civil war as a con
federate and in the Cuban and Phil¬
ippines wars as a soldier of the union.
Every inch a warrior when he was
one, he was the most gentle and lov¬
able and peaceful of men.
Korean Minister Vacates Post.
Yun Chungkim, who has represent¬
ed Korea at Washington as secretary
and charge since January, called at the
state department Wednesday to say
farewell to the officials, thereby ter¬
minating the independent existence of
the Korean legation in Washington.
WEDDING GIFT VOTED BY CUBANS.
aland Senate Passes Bill Donating $25,000
to Miss Alice Roosevelt.
The Cuban senate unanimously pass
ed an appropriation of $25,000 for the
purchase of a wedding gift for Miss
Alice Roosevelt.
Before the vote was taken General
Cisneros, , who had been called the
most anti-American man in congress,
voiced his approval of the bill, and
moved that it he passed by acclama¬
tion. It was so passed.
Assurances are given that the house
will take similar action.

Startling But True.
People the world over were hor
rifled on learning of the burning of a
Chicago theater in which nearly six
hundred people lost their lives, yet
more than five times this number or
over 3,000 people died from pneumo¬
nia in Chicago during the same year,
with scarcely a passing notice. Every
one of these cases of pneumonia re¬
sulted from a cold and could have
been prevented by the timely use of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. A
great many who had every reason to
fear pneumonia have warded it off
by the prompt use of this remedy. Tbs
following is an instance of this sort:
‘‘Too much cannot be said in favor of
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and es¬
pecially for colds and influenza. I

a charge of perjui v, growing out of
his testimony tn tae recent criminal
libel proceedings against Norman
Hapgood, editor ol Collier’s Weekly.
Colonel Mann w is arrested in UL

tective of District Attorney Jerome’s

town to the criminal court building,
where he was arraigned before a city
magistrate and held in 110,000 bail,
which was furnished by Mrs. Albeit
A. Wray, a daughter of Colonel Mann.
The specific charge against Colonel
Maun is that he swore falsely in the

itialed "O. K.” on a letter from Count
Reginald Ward to Moses Ellis Woos¬
ter, a solicitor for "Fads and Fan¬
cies,” was his own.
Colonel Mann, when leaving court,
