DEATH OF DANIEL COXE.
DIED SUDDENLY AT HIS HOME ON
FRIDAY EVENING.
Reeoiveil it Severe Shock on Friday Af
ternoon by lieinj,' Thrown from His
Miniature Locomotive—Died a Few
Hours Later from the Effects.
Daniel Coxe, of Drifton, died at his
homo 011 Friday evening at two minutes
of 8 o'clock. His death was sudden and
unexpected, and his friends and the pub
lic in general could scarcely believe the
report when the news of tin; sad event
reached town. In the afternoon lie. had
been engaged in testing his narrow
gauged roadbed, which was reiaid a few
weeks ago. lie was riding on engine
No. 4, the latest of the miniature loco
motives which ho had built for use on
the nine-Inch track. With his train of
little cars he was running at a fair rate
of speed, and while crossing the turnpike
near the shops the locomotive met with
an obstruction on the rails and was
thrown off.
Mr. Cox(i was pitched to one side
rather violently, but did not appear to
be injured to any extent, beyond receiv
ing a general shaking up. Knowing,
however, that he was physically weak,
friends induced him to return to his
home, which was done. After being
there a short while lie bogan to grow
worse and physicians were summoned
to aid him.
Drs. Wentz, Morton and Oayloy re
sponded with promptness and did what
they could to relieve his sufferings.
The news of the accident, in the mean
time, became known here, and many
expressions of sympathy wore heard for
the young man. None, however, thought
for a moment that the end was so near,
and when the announcement was made
that death had overtaken Mr. Coxe the
people of town were astounded and
could not, for some time, really believe
that it was true.
llis parents, Alex. 15. Coxe and wife,
had left for Atlantic City 011 Saturday
morning. They wore notified immedi
ately, and lost no time in returning. A
special train over the Lehigh Valley
Railroad brought them into Driftou at
1.30 o'clock on Saturday morning. The
grief of both was heartrending to wit
ness, for the young man who laid before
them was idolized by his parents. They
took the greatest pride in his mechani
cal achievements and denied him noth
ing. since boyhood, that would add to
his pleasure or advancement.
The funeral arrangements are noted
in another column 011 this page.
Sketch of 111 M I.ifo.
Daniel Coxe was born in Philadelphia,
November 1, 1800, and was 28 years, 10
months and ."> days old 011 the day of his
death. In early life he removed to Drif
tou with his father, Alexander 15. Coxe,
who is a brother of the late Eckle.y 15.
Coxe, and pursued his education under
private tutorship. He showed a special
aptitude for the mechanic arts and
studied hard along those lines. lie sup
plemented his education by extensive
tours of Europe and visited all of the
large mechanical establishments in the
old country.
liesides being a director on tjie Dela
ware, Susquehanna and Schuylkill Kail
road, he also acted as superintendent
and took an active part in all of the
road's affairs. Through his energy the
road was advanced to a high standard
of perfection and is regarded in rail
way circles as the model road of the
country.
He was a trustee of the state hospital
at Ilazlcton, was president of the board
of trade of Frceland and a member of
the Republican state committee and of
the Republican county committee.
He was the only Republican in the
large family, all the other members of
the family having followed the Demo
cratic faith. His influence in politics
was felt witli great power during the
late Quay and Hastings contest, as he
had charge of the Hastings interests in
this district and succeeded in having a
Hastings delegate elected when such a
result was not considered possible. His
career in politics promised to be very in
teresting.
Since the death of Eckloy 15. Coxe,
Daniel took up the lines laid down by
ids uncle and was indefatigable in his
efforts to carry out the, intentions and
plans of the ex-senator.
The unfortunate young man's growth
was interrupted when quite young,
when a nurse who was carrying him let
him fall and partially fractured his
spine.
He was married October 10, 1804, to
Miss Margaret 15. White, daughter of J.
]5. White.
He was vorv popular in this region and
all of the. Coxe employes, as well as others,
admired him for his freedom of manner
and goodness of heart, lit; mingled
with the men and made their interests
his own and thus gained their.good will
and highest esteem. In fact, it has al
ways been said that no citizen in the
lower end has been more popular than
young Daniel Coxe.
The deceased's ancestor. I)r. Daniel
Coxe, came from England in 170:.' and
was married to Sarah, daughter of Judge
EcUley. of the Pennsylvania supreme
court. Dr. Coxe became governor
of New Jersey; he died in 1730. Hi
son, Colonel Daniel Coxe, was born in
100.3 and died in 1734; his son, William,
was born in 172.3 and died in 1801; his
son, Hon. Tench Coxe, was born in 17.">f>
and died in 1824: his son, Judge Charles
j S. Coxe, grand fattier of the subject of
! this sketch, was born in Philadelphia.
July 31, 1701, and died November 10.
1870; his son, Alexander 1?. Coxe, father
of deceased, was also born in Philadel
phia and removed to Drifton, where he
now resides.
A Public Misfortune.
From Yesterday's Philadelphia Times.
The death of Daniel Coxe, of Drifton.
is in more ways than one a public mis
fortune. Not only will his loss be deep
ly felt in the great mining town where
lie was held in peculiar esteem and af
fection; but he dies before the people of
the state could learn what an extraordi
nary example lie was of the power of the
human spirit. Mr. Coxe had been
almost from babyhood of such infirm
and precarious health that very preser
vation of life in his frail tenement was
a marvel. The* greatest care was neces
sary even to mitigate his constant suffer
ing. lie had not the physical stengtlnof
a child.
Yet nothing could quench his
for study, experiment and administra
tion, and though for years of his brief
life he had been absolutely incapacitat
ed for work, his indomitable will over
came every disadvantage, and on his
uncle's death he was actually able to
step into public life—and lie was still a
boy.
If his life had only been spared the
effect of his example, as his circle of in
fluence widened, would have been <f in
calculable benefit. He was one of those
men whose mere existence is an absolute
refutation of every materialistic doubt
or dogma, and prove* over again that
the flesh merely lives that the spirit
may inhabit it.

Hittuu by u Mail Dog.
A great deal of c.xcitemont was created
at Conyngham last week by a mad dug.
The animal had the rabies in tin; most
pronounced form, and went through the
town snapping at everybody. It left
Conyngham and reached Drum's liotfcl
just as Emerson Drum was leaving the
door. The dog made a spring at him
and before he could release himself his
band was terribly lacerated and torn.
The dog died shortly after. Drum's
hand was immediately cauterized but it
continued to swell until it was an enor
mous size. On Friday Drum was taken
to tin? Pasteur Institute in Now York
for treatment, in hopes of overcoming
any ill effects of the bite.

Another rope of similar dimension is

ItiNliop O'Httrn'ft Strong Vitality,
From the Scrauton Truth.
Something of the indomitable will
power and marvelous vitality of Rt.
Rev. Bishop OTlara, who is in his eigh
tieth year, can lie learned from what he
accomplished in one day last week. He
arose at 5 o'clock in the morning, said
his offico, which took an hour; at 0.30
celebrated mass, and after the mass
confirmed a class of thirty children at
Wilkesbarre, giving them Instructions
before and after imparting tho sacra
ment. lie had breakfast at 8 and then
took t he train for Ridgoberry, a distance
of 103 miles. Father Hussle's church is
five miles from the railway station, and
he was driven to it over a rough road.
I mmedlatelyafter arriving he had dinner,
and then dedicated the church; after
that ceremony ho confirmed a large
class of children, giving them Instruc
tion, and got in his carriage, was driven
a few miles to visit a priest, and from
there live miles back to tho railway sta
tion, returning to Scrauton by train.
Want a Now Candidate.
From tlie Hurrisburg Patriot.
Since the factional fight has sprung ;
up in the ranks of the Junior Order of
American Mechanics by the political
quarrel between William T. Kerr, ex
state councillor, and Stephen Collins,
national organizer, the indications are
that an independent candidate will be
elected state vice councillor at the meet
ing of state council next week at Mc-
Keesport. Many members of the order
want a candidate who will not lie res
ponsible to either tho Collins or Kerr
faction. Tho hulk of tho delegates will
support Charles P. Lang, of Pittsburg.
There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until tho last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, ami by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and thereforo icquires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is tho only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys
tem. They offer 0110 hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

Castoria is truly a marvelous thing for
children. Doctors prescribe it. medical
journals recommend it, and more than
a million mothers are using it in place
of paregoric, Bateman's drops, so-caltod
soothing syrups and other narcotic an*,'
stupefying remedies. Castoria is the
quickest tiling to regulate the stomach
and bowels, and give healthy sleep, the
world has ever seen. It. is pleasant to
the taste and absolutely harmless. It
relieves constipation, quiets pain, cures
diarrhu-a and wind colic, allays feverlsh
ness, destroys worms, and prevents con
vulsions, soothes the child and gives It
refreshing and natural sleep. Castoria
is the children's panacea—the mother's
friend. Castoria is put up in one-size,
bottles only. It is not sold in bulk.
Don't allow anyone to sell you anything
else on the plea or promise that it. is
"just as good" and "will answer every
purpose." See that you get CASTOII IA.
