Ba bad been ailing for aome time from a com

bnlldlngi were placed at half-mast Ur.Arthur
had lived at No. 133 Lexington arenne for
twenty yean or more. Aatroko of cerebral
apoplexy, radden, bnt not wholly unexpected
by hla attending physicians, terminated hla
life. Th* stroke cam* In hla deep between
Tneeday night and Wednesday morning and

waa nnconadona tohli surrounding!. HU
ion and dughtor, hla inter, hU former law
partner, Sherman W. Knevals, and hU cloeest
Mend, Surrogate Rollins, were at hli bedside.
All reports to the contrary, Ur. Arthnr*a
health had not improrsd daring his stay at
New London tlx week* ago, and at hla return,
on October 1, he was no better than when he
left the city. Aa time pawed no permanent
improTOmrat came, and the physicians feared
tome such sadden stroke is tha one to which
ho raoenmbed. In hU enfeebled condition
even a light stroko of apoplexy would pro re
fatal to tbo once robust patient.
It waa alter midnight when hU attendant
left him alone In hu bed room, and nothing
wss heard of him during tho early morning
hours. Ho waa not disturbed until hU at-
tendant entered hU room at eight o’cloek yes-
terday morning. Ha found Ur, Arthur lying
on hU tide breathing hesrlly, and could not
rouse him. The family answered hla ram*
mons, bnt Ailed to elicit any alga of cooseions-
nesa or recognition from tho expreeUknt. In
alarm they rammoned his nhysicltn, Dr.
George A. Deters, who him been in

at once caw he was sufforlng from a stroko of

an enfeebled putae, more dllficnlt respiration
and other signs of physical failure In
dicated to the watchful eyes of hU
phjslclana that tha end was drawing
near. The change for tho worse came on
rapidly and bU lister, and children gathered
athis btdride.
Dr. George A. Patera mu found at hU office
to-day. Be arid: "Hr. Arthur died of eere-
atla.lt WUtho immediate
canto. It was one of tha ways In which hU
trouble might terminate at any time.' To that
extent It waa not nnoxpoctad. For two or
three years Ur. Arthur had tuffsred from an
enlarged and enfeebled heart, and tha variety
of symptoms that alarmed hU friends, were
the natural result of tbU condition.
The futoftho rapidly waning life of Ur
Arthur mu not made pobllo and it was not
until aomo boon after bU death that a knowl
edge of It waa on tho street. As ooonas tha
death became known, flags were placed at

Mas Wsxhix Davis, tbo child of tho con-
federacy, will become a natlonri Issue yot, if
foolish people can have their way. She went
abont a week ago to Fislt Mrs. General Emory,
afriend of her father’s, in Syracuse. The
northern papers are discussing her visit targe*
ly. Bore la what tha Now York Son says
abont lh Whatever they «ay or do. Miss
Winnie will Mar herself gracefully, modestly
and wlnsomely, and will win tha love and
esteem of all who meat her. ThoSnnetys:
A pleasant rejourn was not usorod Uiss
Winnie Davis In Syracuse until within the
last two or three days. Ordinarily the gneat
of Mr*, Tho*, Emory wool! be guaranteed
racha show of courtesy as would leave no
doubt ofonr city’s hospitality, for there is no
lady In Syracuse society who entertains more
olegantlj-IhaNhe daughter of tbo late Bran-
tor Dennis McCarthy. Tbs dinner partlaa at
the Emory mansion in Gut Fayette street
ate famous for their excellence, and to bt In
vited there la one of the teste of position In
redety hen. Nevertheless, then wu a feel
ing or leteatment abroad when It wai an
nounced that the'Child of tha Confederacy"
was to make her debnt in nortbarn society
In Syraotu*. 'No city in tha land
wu heartier In its detestation
of the rebeUlon than this. Borne of tits old
fullng hu doubtless survived the yean that
havi passed sines the rarrender of Richmond.
At lout the coming of Jefferson Davis’s daagh-
tsr raised the question whether It woald bo
loyal to accord hor tho wrioomo any other Mr
and accomplished girl would receive from a
hupitabla people. In tho social gathering*
antedating her arrival the sentiment wai freo-
ly expressed that It wu not rit«sthsr proper
for Mrs, Emory, entrenched u she Is in soite-
ty, to ask hu friends to iccelva Miss Davis.
Many hoped she would not come to Syracuse.
Daring the put week the tadissoftho city
have had an nnnraal nnmbsrof afternoon teas,
and at all of these gatherings tbo question of
accepting Miss Davis hu been nnrsaervodly
discussed. Mist Davis certainly hu had sev
eral valiant champions among now made
friends In Syracuse, tod they hava fought her
battle for her before she had an opportnnity of
doing It for henolf. A few tad lei who have
mot her hare gone ball for her ability to mtke
her own way once tho field is opon. It la dno
to the good resse of tho city to say that tha
prejudice against her. hu been substantially
overcome during tho put weak, and that In
care Miss Davis decides to go out .she will not
want for Invitations. Mrs. Emory Is still la
mourning for herfktber, and therefore tho
privilege of formally introdnclog Miss Davis
will bo denied her. Nevertheless, there are
enough of Mrs. Kmoey's friends to make tho
t.mo Miss Davit Is to spend In Syracuso
wholly pleat ant.
Mlu Davis hu already boon seen driving
with Mr*. Emory. Last night sho accepted
tha fitter of a box at the (hotter where Louis
James wu playing In “Virgtnlus." Shaattend.
ed in company with Dr. Thu. Emory, Lira-
tenant William B. Emory of Uoslyn, L. I.,and
Dennis McCarthy. The box wu tendered by
the tragedian's manager, G. A. Mortimer, who
wu en officer In tho confederate navy. Uiss
Davis time made her first pnblle appuranct
here. She wu tha cynosure of every lorgnette
in the theater: bnt the attention aha received
WU not offensive or hold. On Tauday of
next week Uiss Davis will accompany Mlu
Clara Beach, a local belle, to a dancing party
since It wu known (list Mlu Davis wu to bo
a guest. At moat of the borax and bollee will
grace this occulon, tho "Child of tho Confed
eracy” will meet almost everybody worth
knowing In. tho city, at lout among tho
yonnger sot.
Mlis Davis has been not a little nervous
abont tbs reception she wu to receive In the
north. The invitation whlohihe finally ac
cepted had been pressed upon her forthroe
years by Mrs. Emoi7, with whose father-in-
law, General Emory, Jefferson Davtawuon
terms of oloaest Intimacy when Mr, Divio wu
a senator In Washington. Bnt there are other
tics of friendship to bind them. Thafimlllu
of General Emory aad Jefferson Davis were
vary closely kali la aate-bnllam days. Mrs.
Davis wu tha god-mother of several of the
Emory children, and their remembrance of
her la of aoonrtly old lady of tha moat lovablo
disposition. Tbomu Emory, at whose
tome Mlu Davis is now a gnast, wu
a Richmond whin tho diet gun
wu fired at Fort Sumter. Thrilled with tho
excitement of tho moment, ho wu on his way
to the recrull In* office to offer hliservlcesua
common soldier when accosted by the wlfo of
hoconfsdnate president. She wu driving by In
icr carriage and ballad bar yonng friend from
i ho door. When ho responded and told her of
hla Intention, She pomaded him to postpone
enlisting for a liltis whlla, In order thstahe
might no if ihe ooold not do better for him.
Yonng Emory had not even consulted hi*
isrenta. At her solicitation ho put off enter-
ng the rebel army, and In do* time wu ap
pointed to a position In tho navy, In whleh ho
Served with distinction.
