SENATOR McLAURIN DEAD, °
Prominent Mississippian Passes to
the Beyond.
Brandon, Miss —United States Sen
ator A, J. Mclaurin died suddenly at
his home here. Death was duy to an
attack of heart failure and came with
out the slightest warning at 6:35 o'-
clock, T
When the fatal stroke eame upon
him, Senator McLaurin was seated in
& rocking chair in front of the fire
place in his llbr‘ary. He suddenly fell
forward, without speaking a word, and
life was extinct when members of his
family reached his side. The swift
gummons of death followed within :
few moments a remark by Senator
ycLaurln that he was then feeling
etter than he had felt at any time
since his ' recent illness, resulting
from an attack of ptomalne poison
ing, caused by eating fried oysters
for breakfast,
As to a successor to Senator Me-
Laurin, it is ,pointed out that an ap
pointment might be immediately made
by Governor Noel, or gelected by the
stale leg!slaturg, which will convene
early in January, -
Former Governor James K. Varda
man and Senator-elect John Sharp
Williams are mentioned in eonnection
with the s_eh:?(:tiun of suceessor to
complete the unexpired term of the
late Senator:. MecLaurin. Several
months ago Mr, Vardaman announced
his candidacy for the subsequent
term.
Senator MecLaurin, who was 61
years old, hegan his first term in the
United Stat:s Senrate in 1894, but was
elected governor of Miasissippi in
1895, and cerved in that office four
years. He was elected again to the
senate in 1900, and served one term.
He then returned for the term which
began on March 4, 1907. His present
term of office would have expired on
March 2, 1913,
Senator MclLaurin was a lawyer by
profession, and began the study of
law in 1868, after he had served
through the .civil war as a private in
the Confederate army. He was born
on March 26, 1848, at Brandon, Miss,,
and was raised on a farm. He en
tered the Confederate army when he
was 16 years old. Seven children sur
vive him,
When the present session of con
gress opened, Senator McLaurin did
not go to Washington, because of ill
ness. In the senate chamber he was
known as one of the strongest defend
ers of the south, though not as radi
cal as some. He believed in the
gsouth, her resources and her future,
and he never failed to rise to her de
fense when she was assailed,

ZELAYA A FUGITIVE
Under Cover of Night Flees
' the Country.
IHE GOES TO MEXICO
’Former President of the Republic of
. Nicaragua Boards Warship and
% Seeks Refuge In Santa Cruz—Ma
; driz Prociaimed President.
: ;
l Managua.—Jose Santos Zelaya, the
ex-president of Nicaragua, has taken
himself out of the country, and, it is
| said, is bound for Santa Cruz.
! Under the cover of darkness Zelaya,
it is reported, accompanied by
'a heavily armed guard, pro
' ceeded to Corinto, in whieh
port a Mexican warship had been
lylng for several days, close to the
United States protected crulser Al
bany. Other American warships
swung at anchor in the harbor, with
marines aboard, lazily awalting - in
structions,
Boon Safe Under Mexican Flag.
Zelaya’s coming was unheralded, but
a guard from the Guerrero received
him and soon he was safe under the
protection of the Mexican flag. At
five o'clock in the afternoon the war
lships weighed anchor and pointed out
to sea, A salute of thirteen guns was
fired from the shore and hundreds of
'soldiers and citizens waved the former
;dlctator a farewell from the beach.
Zelaya stood alone and waved back in
“answer. He uncovered when abreast
} of the Albany, but the Americon cruis
er made no response, Then he turned
again toward the shore, gazing until
out of sight.
Shortly before the arrival of Zelaya
)at Corinto, the United Siates gunboat
‘ Princeton got up steam and proceeded
for San Juan del Sur. The .rumor
;spread that the Princeton intended to
watch the movement of the Mexican
gunboat, but she proceeded directly
down the coast and her arrlval at her
destination was later reported, greatly
relleving the anxiety of the Zelaya
adherents.
Madriz Won’t Resign,
Managuans in general were greatly
relieved when they learned that Ze
laya had gone, and President Madriz
has alredy begun his promised work
of reform.
All reports that Madriz intends to
resign the presidency are without a
shred of truth, Ife himself announces
that he accepted the office only after
mature conslideration of the opportuni
ty the position gave him to bring
about harmony and peace in Nicaragua
and also of the dangers which attend
ed his acceptance. He is willing to
face the dangers, he says, in order to
save the country.
ROBBED OF HER HAIR.
Bt. Louis Woman’s Locks Shorn From
Her Head With Razor,
St, Louis.—Mrs, William J. Ehlen,
whose five feet of heavy blonde hair
has been the envy and admiration of
St. Louis women for years, was
knocked senseless by an unidentified
man ag she was leaving her home
for church, and her hair was chopped
off close to her head with a razor.
She was dragged into the hallway of
her home and lay there unconscious
for an hour before she was found. Her
condition is serious.
The attack was the third in two
weeks, She was approached on the
street on the previous occasion by a
man who first made an offer in money
for the hair and then attempted to
cut off two braids with shears.
The hair fell far below her knees
and she has refused many large offers
for it. She is 28 years old.
McDonough Man Suicides,
McDonough, Ga.—Mr, Cliff C, Tye,
one of the most prominent young men
of McDouough, shot himself in the
right temple in the store of Messrs.
T. A Sloan & Co, with a pistol, in
the presence of all the employees of
the store and many customers. No
motive i 8 known for the deed. He
walked into the store and handed Mr.
T. A. Sloan, his brother-in-law, some
money, and asked him to give him
credit for it, and as Mr. Slaon turned
to go back to his office to give credit
for the money, Mr. Tye pulled his pis
tol and fired into his right temple and
fell dead,
