DEATH OF SEXATOH QI'AV.
At his residence in Beaver, last Satur
day afternoon. M. S. Quay. United
States Senator from this state, breathed
his last. He was bnried in the cemetery
there. Tuesday afternoon. He had been
in poor health for some months, became
weaker while visiting his brother at
Morganza. was taken to Beaver the
previous Sunday, became unconscious
Friday night, and remained so to the
end. He was born in the village of
Dillsbnrg. York Co., Pa., September 30.
1833, and was the son of a Presbyterian
Minister who moved to Beaver, when
the boy was seven years of age. He
graduated from the college at Washing
ton, Pa., when but 17 years of age.
travelled in the Southern states for a
time, came home and studied law, and
was admitted to the bar a few days after
attaining bis majority.
A year or so after, he was appointed
Prothonotary of Beaver county, to fill a
vacancy, and in 1856 was elected to
succeed himself.
When the Civil War broke out he
joined the 39th P. V. as a lieutenant
and with it went to Harrisburg. but
Gov. Curtin appointed him Assistant
Commissary, and afterwards made him
his private secretary. After the second
Bull ftnn battle, he took an active part
in recruiting the 134 th, and was made
its Colonel by Gov. Curtin. The regi
ment was hurried forward to Antietam
where it lay for some months, during
which time Col. Quay went down with
typhoid fever, which left him so weak
that he resigned his commission; but the
battle of Fredericksburg coming on, he
went into it as an aid of Gen. Tyler,
and did good work during the day.
Then Gov. Curtin appointed him
military state agent at Washington, and
in 1363 appointed him his military
secretary.
In 1864 he was elected to the Legisla
ture from Beaver county and was a
member when the last great fight be
tween Cnrtin and Cameron took place
in 1867.
In this fight be deserted his old friend
Curtin and went into the Cameron
camp, and was accused at the time of
receiving twenty thonsand dollars for
his treachery.
"Even Quay's friends never attempt
ed to explain the sudden change in
Quay's material affairs which took place
at about this time. When he went to the
Legislature he was a poor man. Soon
after the opening of the session be be
gan the erection of what was then the
most pretentious business building in
Beaver. He himself testified later that
it cost him $13,000, bnt he did not t:'l
where he got the money.
Whatever may have been the com
pelling cause there can be no question
that Quay's treatment of Cnrtin was
treacherous. He had the war Governor
to thank for, almost withont exception,
every public honor that haft been his up
until that time. He had an acknowl
edged place among the leaders of the
State, and even his enemies had to con
cede that bis star was rising swiftly and
steadily. For all this be wss indebted
to Curtin, but from the election of
Speaker Glass he was with Cameron. "
—Pittsburg Times.
The defeat of Cnrtin made Simcn
Cameron the master of tbe Republican
party of the state, and Quay stuck close
to him and to his lieutenant Robert
Mackey in Pittsburg.
From this time on Qnay was almost
continually in office, he *was Secretary
of the Commonwealth under both Hart
ranft and Hoyt, and the "fat" office of
Recorder of Philadelphia connty, tbe
fees of which amounted to abont $50,-
000 a year was created for bim, but
soon discontinued.
His name was connected with several
the worst of which was the
shortage in the State Treasury nnder
Noyes, with J. Blake Walters, a crony
of Quay's, as cashier. The shortage
amounted to $260,000, and was made
good by Don. Cameron and other friends
of Quay, and in 1886 he was "vindicated"'
by being elected State Treasurer him
self.
In the National Convention of 1888
he opposed Harrison's nomination, bnt
was made Chairman of the National
Committee, and by his remarkable
work tt» New York city, gave that state
to tbe Republicans and secured Harri
son's election. Aided by contribntions
from all over the country be had a com
plete poll of the city made, by blocks
or election precincts, and on election
day had detectives at every polling
place.
"President Harrison himself was
perhaps tbe only man wbo failed to
give Quay credit for the work he done
during tne campaign. Harrison was
like Quay in this—be was cold, and nn
leas it happened to suit his mood he
was not always inclined to give credit
where credit was due.
The first hitch came w ben Qnay asked
the appointment of John Wanamaker
to the cabinet. Wanamaker was then
as warm and faithful a friend and snp
borter as Quay had. He had been a
member of the "fat-frying" committee,
and he finally appointed him Postmaster
General, but unaer protest.
The second hitch between tbe two men
came when Qnay went to the President
in behalf of his son. Andrew G. Curtin
Quay, then an officer ia the United
States army. Tbe young man was a
graduate of West Point, but his father
asked that he be advanced a consider
able number of points in the list Har
rison refused in the manner that only
he conld assume.
"Why Genera'," said Quay, "1 made
you President."
llHarrison looked at him coldly and:
"Mr. Qaay, God made me President "
CQuay left the room in » dsze. He,
for once, had loft bis wiu and in the
hallway he literally bnmped Into Rob
ert G. Ingersol. Ingersol saw some
thing was wrong and he asked what it
was.
"Why," said Quay, "Harrison has
been telling me that God made him
President."
"Well," replied Ingersoll, with a dry
■mile, " I ve heard the Almighty ac
cused of some mean things, but that's
the worst."
Not long after this incident Qraay hud
occasion to go to the Whit/! House again.
In tbe ante room to tbe President's of
fice he was told that Gen. Harrison
"couldn't lie seen."
"Heavens!" said Quay, in mock sur
prise, "has he got that small?"
In 1890 came the Delarnater cam
paign, and Quay did not "own a Gov
ernor. "
In 1893 his first term as Senator end
ed and he was re-elected without oppo
sition.
In 1895 be made or rather read his fa
mous speech in the Senate,keeping at it
day after day, nntil the Wilson tariff
bill was amended to snit him: and this
was followed by the "Hog Combine"
flght against him for the State Chair
manship. He was fairly beateh in that
fight, but he fooled a lot of delegates
at Harrisburg, and won out.
In IS&6 he was a candidate for Presi-
I dent and received 61 j votes —SB frcm
Pennsylvania, 2 from Georgia. 1 firm
Mississippi and i from Louisiana. Mc-
Kinlt-v was nominated and elected, and
Quay soon after qaarreled with bim.
During his whole life Quay was a
speculator, the state money was said
to have gone that way and in March of
189* the Peoples bank of Philadelphia,
a state depository failed, and its cashier
committed suicide. The discovery of
some telegrams from Quay to the cash
ier, including the famous "plum tree
one, led to the arrest of Quay, his son
Dick and former State Treasurer Hay
wood, but Haywood died, and the two
Quays were acquitted.
In 1899 his second term in the Senate
expired, and the opposition to his re
election deadlocked the Legislature.
Goy. Stone appointed Qnay to the Sen
ate as soon as the Legislature adjourn-
I ed, but the Senate refused to accept
him by a vote of 33 to S3. Then came
the Ripper bill, and the death of Chris
Magee, and finally Quay won out
again.
In 1902 he turned down his old lieu
tenant, John Elkin, and put up Penny
packer, and this year he tamed down
Pennypacker and put up Eikin, whom
he feared as a possible competitor for
the Senate, and hoped to shelve on the
Supreme Bench.
And now people are wondering what
Gov. Pennypacker will do —whether he
will make an appointment, as the Na
tional Constitution allows him to do,
whether he will convene the Legisla
ture as the State Constitution requires
him to do, or whether he will allow the
whole matter to go over until the new
Legislature meets in January next.
WAll NOTES.
The Jap army that landed at Pitsewo.
on the east coast of the Liao-Tung pen
insula 9ome time ago, invested the for
tified town of Kinju or Kinchau, last
week, studied the Russian lines till they
found a weak place in it, and than at
tacked it—first with heavy and
then by charging—and carried it by as
sault.
Immediately south of the town, and
commanding the railroad and the nar
row neck of the peninsula, is a moun
tain two-thousand feet high, the sides
of which had been both mined and for
tified by the Russians, who considered
it impregnable,bnt the Japs attacked it,
and though repeatedly driven back
during a battle raging for two days,
drove the Russians off it, and captured
sixty field guns.
This cost them, according to the dis
patches. three thousand five hundred
men, but it opened their way to Port
Dalny and Port Arthur. Dalny is not
very itrongly fortified, but Port Arthur
is considered a "Gibralter ", and the
next desperate fight of tbe war will
probably be there.
The Japanese are especially anxious
to capture it, and capture or destroy
the Russian war vessels yet in the liar
bor before tbe Russian Baltic and Black
Sea fleets can reach the scene, and con
test their supremacy on the sea.
In the meantime Gen. Kuroki and
bis army are holding the main army of
the Russians in check, near Fenwang
cheng, 150 miles to the northeast.
On Tuesday the Russians destroyed
their warship in the harbor of Dalny,
and hastily evacuated the place. Gen
eral Kuroki was reported to have cap
tured one of the mountain passes in
Manchuria.near F/.ngwangcbeng, which
tbe Russians occupied. The Russian
army near Liao-YaDg was reported to
be suffering from small pox, pneumonia
and half-rations.
RAISTLI, tbe Moorish bandit chief of
Morocco, threatens to kill some Ameri
can and English tourists that he has
c iptured unless their ransom is prompt
ly paid. Some of our warships have
been sent to Tangier to look into the
matter, but tbe ordinary forces of civili
zation seem powerless against the ban
dits of northern Africa or eastern Eu
rope. as the population or part of it,and
sometimes, also, the local government,
stands in with the outlaws. The only
real remedy is for a civilized govern
ment to take possession of a country
wh'rne alleged government cannot or
docs not cope with the outlaws
This is another Mrs. Stone case, and
th■) only way to save the lives of tbe
present prisoners is to pay the amount
demanded; and then the American and
English governments should take pos
session of that country, which lies just
across tbe strait from Gibraltar, and
the coast of which is high and moun
tainous.
Tin* Bum.
Ia an alley that recked with filth and
dirt,
By tbe side of an empty can—
In a sheltered spot where the wind blew

Lay the shattered wreck of a man.
It was only a worn out "bum," this
man.
Asleep for a little while.
The sunlight gleamed on a face that
beamed
With the ghost of a happy siuile.
The face was scarred with the lines of
vice,
But the smile was as pure as the sun,
That over him gleamed as lie lay and
dreamed
Of the deeds he might have done .
He dreamed of the d<*ds he might have
done
In the days forever lost—
When yet it child on his mot bee's keen,
The borders of dreamland he crossed.
He could In ar her voice s«ain lik- a

He conld hear croon thai heavenly tune,
The words of n mother's love.
He could feel her arms about him now
As in the days of long ago;
He could feel the khs, that brought the
bliss
That none but a child can know.
Hut a blundering ldiiecoat came along,
Ixsiking for drunken jays.
A kick, a groan—tbe dream bad flown,
And left the bum in his rux-i

THE PLANET EARTH.
It* Movement** Aroond tlif» Snn nod
I poll ll* (Inn Asia.
The earth, considered ha a planet,
occupies n favored rank In the solar
system. It pleased the all wise Cre
ator to assign Its position among the
heavenly bodies where nearly all the
sister planets are visible to the naked
eye. It Is situated next to Yenns and
Is the third planet from the HUH. It
moves around the sun from west to
east in 3*13 days, 5 hours, IS minutes
and 48 seconds and turns the same
way on Its axis in 23 hours, CO min
utes and 4 seconds.
That the earth, In common with all
the planets, revolves around the sun
as a center Is a fact which rests upon
the clearest demonstrations of philoso
phy. That It revolves, like them, upon
its own axis Is a truth which every ris
ing and setting sun Illustrates and
which very many phenomena concur
to establish. Either the earth moves
around its axis every day or the whole
universe moves around it In the Fame
time. There is no third opinion that
can be formed on this point. Either
the earth must revolve on Its axis ev
ery twenty-four hours to produce the
a I tenia to succession of day and nlj{ht
or the sun, moon, planets, comets, llx<-d
stars and the whole frame of the uni
verse Itself must move around the
earth In the same time. To suppose
the latter case to be the fact would be
to cast a reflection on the wisdom of
the Supreme Architect, whose laws are
universal harmony. As well might the
beetle, that In a moment turns on its
ball, imagine the heavens and the
earth had made a revolution In the
same Instant.
The idea of the heavens revolving
about the earth is incumbered with In
numerable difficulties. We will men
tion only one. It is estimated on good
authority that there are visible by
means of glasses no less than 100,000,-
000 stars, scattered at all possible
distances In the heavens above, beneath
and around us. Now, Is it In the least
degree probable that the velocities of
all these bodies should \>» so regulated
that, though describing circles so very
different In dimensions, they should
complete their revolutions in exactly
the same time?
In short, there Is no more reason to
suppose that the heavens revolve
around the earth than there Is to sup
pose that they revolve around each of
the other planets separately and at the
same time, since the same apparent
revolution Is common to them all, for
they ull appear to revolve upon their
nxes In different periods. The rotation
of the earth determines the length of
the day and may bo regarded us one of
the most Important elements In astro
nomical science. It serves as a univer
sal measure of time and forms the
standard of comparison for the revolu
tlons of the celestial bodies for all ag'-s,
past and to come. Theory and observa
tion concur In proving that niuonic the
Innumerable vicissitudes that prevail
throughout creation the period of the
earth's (Jlurnal rotation Is Immutable.—

How to Grow t Kir.
The natives of the upper Zamlw/.l
have a most disfiguring habit of re
moving the upper front teeth at the
iikcs of from ten to twelve years. Tim
only reason for following such an ab
surd and barbarous practice is that by
HO doing they Imitate their oxen, which
they lixik upon an sacred, and ills'! are
unlike the zebra, or <piag£n, which
they view lli a lists favorable light, hat
ing them with an Intensity based on
some hereditary tradition. The women
pierce their upper Dp to insert a stud
or a small piece of ivory, which as they
grow older Is Increased In size. They
smear their hair with (slier and clay,
training It out In numerous pigtails
about two inches long. These lire en

oxen, which Is especially favored If
