M'DONALD IS DEAD
AT MIDNIGHT INDIANA'S EX-
SENATOR PASSED AWAY,
HE WAS GONSGIOUS TO THE LAST.

Lawyer and Benator.
111 Xatlmal Press Association.
Indiam'oi.iw, June 2!J. Ex-Senotcr Jlc
Donald died at midnight. Early In the
morning tho unfavorable symptoms of
soveral days ago appeared and during the
dHy tho patient's condition continued to
grow1 more serious, lie could retain no
nourishment whatever and tho llttlo re
maining of his former strength slowly
ebbed away. But consciousness nover
departed.
During the afternoon tho Rev. Mr. Mil
burn was sent for and administered the
sHcramont. Then Mr. McDonald called
his family and intlmato friends about
him and o:ilmly, ns if the occasion were
were ono of the most ordinary kind, gave
directions for his funeral arrangements
and the disposition of Borne of his per
sonal nffulrs.
In the presence of all he said ho wished
to glvo testimony to hi faith in God's
saving grace. Then he grasped each by
the hand and bado them good byo, say
ing that ho could see no mora callers.
Ills auditors thus dismissed, tho dying
man surrendered himself to tho care of
bis physician te await the coming of tho
Inevitable.
Sketch nt nil Career.
With Joseph Ewlng McDonald there
passes away one of the most notahlo fig
ures In national politics. McDonald was
born In Butler Couuty, Ohio, August 29,
lrJ10, and his father dlod when he was an
infant. When ho was only 11 years old
McDonald was apprenticed to a saddler.
To this fact is due his sobriquet, "Old
Saddlebags."
In the "thirties1' McDonald determined
tb secuie a colleglato education and be
come a lawyer. He was graduatod in
1842 from the Asbury University, and
tour years later was admitted to the bar.
After serving three years as Attorney
General he was sent to Congress. Ho
served only ono term in the House, bolng
beaten for a return by Ollvor P. Morton.
He then became ambitious to go tho Sen
ate, and undertook tho reorganization of
the Democratic party in his Stato, which
had been sadly demoralized during tuo
war. He was made chairman of tho
Denjocratlo State central committee, and
in 1874 the Democrats captured the Leg
islature by a fair majority. In return
for bis services McDonald was elected to
tho Unltod States Senate and took his
seat March 4, 1875. Ho held It for six
years. During his term he made himself
verv nonular socially.
His home at tho national capital was a
resort for senators and Uongressmen,
Mrs. McDonald had been a wife before
becoming the Senator's bride. The Sena
tor acted as her counsel in proceedings
which resulted in an absolute separation
from her former husband, and tho
Hoosler Democrat soon afterward mar
ried her.
Fow men' of more intense partisanship
than McDonald ever entered tuo benato.
His platform then, ns repeatedly ox.
pressed by him, wast "Jacksoniun De-
Hnroa Jlula and Free TradaJ'
for 25c,
anything in the market at
....
prices.
I-ot of
ttva. jur aov,
lleccntly, n'owever," wnen' nis party
shouted the shibboleth of free stiver, Mc
Don. ild embraced every possible oppor
tunity to deuounco tho scheme to de
grade tho American dollar by making 80
cents worth 100 cents. McDonald had a
strong following in tho 1884 and 1888
Democratic Presidential conventions.
Many Iudlanlans favored his nomination
for the Presidency In 1884. Tho notional
leaders of the party wouldn't listen to tt,
but put up Cleveland, with Hendricks
for second place. Four years lator he
wns pressed for the Vice-Presidency, but
Indiana was ignored. Since that dis
appointment the ox-Senator has devoted
himself to his profession.
McDonald's face and form were known
from ono end of the country to the other.
Ho waft tall, of powerful, chunky build
and weighed at least 2S0 pounds. His
cheeks wero chubby and his head was
bald, except for n fringe of snowy spit
curls that decorated it just above the
cars. A lino of white, extending from
ear to car, around under tho chin, was
all that remained of a onco luxuriant
beard.
