Ell-GOV. RUSSELL DEAD
Brilliant Young Massachusetts Leader
Expires Suddenly.
HEART DISEASE THE CAUSE.
The End Came W'hilo He Slept In His
Fishing Camp In Canada—His Re-
markable Political Career—Men-
, tioned For the Presidency.
QUEBEC, July 17.—Ex-Govcrnor Russell
of Massachusetts was found dead today in
his fishing camp at Adelaide, near Grand
Pabos, Gaspe. He passed through Montreal
in the best of health about two weeks ago
and was then on his way to the salmon
grounds in Gaspe. The particulars of his
death are very meager.
Grand Pabos, the nearest telegraph
station to Adelaide, is a little fishing
place of pnly 300 inhabitants, and there
are very few facilities for getting more ex-
plicit information at present. It appears
that this morning the guides found that
he slept longer than usual, and when they
went to wake him up it was found that
he was dead. He is said to have died of
heart disease. Two of his relatives who
were with him left at once for Massachu-
setts with the remains.
Sketch of His Career.
William Eustis Russell was born in
Cambridge, Mass, Sept. 6, 1857 He was
one of an old Cambridge family, his father
being the well known lawyer Charles
Theodore Russell. William received his
early training in the public schools of
Cambridge, in which he prepared for Har-
vard, entering that institution in 1873,
and was secretary of his class while there.
He is described as being at that time “a
hearty, manly, out of door student, who
loved to lead the cheering at the boat
races and ball matches, ” and it was averred
3"“;
FIX-GOVERNOR RUSSELL.
since he left the governor’s chair that “no
alumnus of recent days can shout louder
than Russell on class day.” After his
graduation in 1877 he immediately com-
menced the study of the law under his fa-
ther’s eye, and also took a course Of three
years at the Boston University Law school.
In 1881 he became a candidate and was
elected a member of the Cambridge com-
mon council, and two years later became
a member of the upper branch of the city
government. He was re-clected to the
board of alder-men in 1884, in the same
year being elected president of the alumni.
of the Boston Law school. In 1885 Mr.
Russell received the nomination of the
Democratic party and the citizens for the
mayoralty of Cambridge and was elected
by a large majority. He held the reins of
government in the mayor’s chair for three
terms, being re-elected the two subsequent
years without opposition. While in this
position he gained the respect of the better
people in the whole state for his vigorous
administration. enforcing, as had never
been done before, the laws on the statute
books relating to local option and prohibi-
tion of the liquor traffic. He became the
most marked man among the younger
element in the Democratic party, and
when it gained ascendancy in the party
councils Mr. Russell was chosen as stand-
ard bearer in a campaign which was main-
ly devoted to a discussion of the tariff
question.
Nominated For Governor.
In 1888 he was nominated for governor,
and while he was defeated by Governor
Ames he polled nearly 1,000 votes more
than were cast for Mr. Cleveland for presi-
dent. It was in that year that Mr. Russell
gave evidence of his great oratorical gifts.
He worked and talked incessantly. The
people of the state began to look upon him
with the affectionate admiration and won-
dering sympathy with which a dashing
military leader is regarded, so that when
he was nominated in 1889 there was some
expectation that he Would be successful.
This time his competitor was Governor
Brackett, and Mr. Russell at the end of
another vigorous campaign had the satis-
faction of seeing the plurality of his oppo-
nent reduced from 29,000 to 6,775. In 1890
he was nominated for the third time and
was triumphantly elected, being the
youngest man that ever filled the govern-
or’s chair in Massachusetts and the third
Democratic incumbent since the war. So
successful was his administration that he
was again nominated in 1891 and was
elected, although ovary other candidate on
the ticket was defeated, and Harrison. the
Republican nominee for president, carried
the state by more than 30,000.
Russell’s name was mentioned by his
admirers in New England as one which
would look well at the head of the Demo-
cratic national ticket. At the J eflerson
celebration in Monticello early in this year
the ex-governor made a strong declaration
in favor of gold. He was assdciatcd with
Senator Hill and err-Secretary Whitney in
the contest over the platform at the recent
Chicago convention.
Mr. Russell was married to Miss Mar-
garet Swan, daughter of the late Rev.
Joshuua Swan, formerly of Cambridge, on
June 3, 1885. They had three children,
two sons and one daughter.

CORNELIUS VANDEEBILT WORSE.
The Condition of the ltlultfmilliqnuiro
Believed to Be Serious. ' .'
NEW YORK, July 17.——'The condition
of Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt was not so
promising for his recovery this morning
as it was yesterday. He did not get much
sleep during the night, and Dr. McLane
was in constant attendance.
The bulletin posted at the Fifty-seventh
street entrance to Mr. Vanderbilt’s house
read:
"Mr..Vanderbilt passed a restless night,
and his condition this morning is less fa-
vorable than it was yesterday.”
The bulletin was posted after Dr. Mc-
Lane, Mr. Vanderbilt’s family physician,
and Dre. J aneway and Draper had held a
consultation in a room adjoining Mr. Van-
derbilt’s. Drs. J aneway and Delafieid ar-
rived early.
After the first bulletin had been posted
carriages began to arrive in rapid succes-
sion. There were five that came almost
together. The first contained a woman
and a man. The next three contained two
men each and the other one man. All of
the visitors were admitted and received
the fullest details of Mr. Vanderbilt’s con-
dition.
Mr. William 0. Whitney, whose son is
engaged to Mr. Vanderbilt’s daughter,
was one of the first callers. Mr. Whitney
lives on the opposite corner to Mr. Vander-
bilt’s house. Mr. Whitney said:
“I talked with the physicians in attend-
ance on Mr. Vanderbilt and also with
members of the family for about 20 min-
utes, but I did not go into .the sickroom,
since it is- absolutely essential that Mr.
Vanderbilt have entire quiet.
“Mr. Vanderbilt can speak, but he evi-
dently feels considerably weaker. His
weak condition is partly due to loss of
sleep and the intense humidity in the at-
mosphere. °
“The noises from the street ascend to
his room with tripled intensity and bother
the patient greatly. The tanbark which
We have had spread over the asphalt in the
side streets on either side of the house to
deaden the sound of vehicles is not effect-
ive. We intend now to try to have traffic
stopped in the immediate neighborhood of
the bangs until there‘is atom for the bet-
ter In Mr. iVanderbilt’s conditififi.’-’ ‘
The tanbark of which Mr. Whitney
spoke was spread over the side streets
[blob border the house on Tuesday night.
It was thought that such a precaution
would prevent the patient from hearing
the noise in the street. At first the tan-
bark did deaden the sound of wagons pass-
ing to such an extent that it could hardly
be heard in the sickroom, which overlooks
Fifty-seventh street. The tanbark, how-
ever, became settled yesterday, and the
heavy rain of this morning made it almost
useless as a means of deadening the sound.
Some friends of the family suggested
that servants be stationed near the house
to request all truckmen and drivers of
wagons that rattle to turn out of their
route.
As the hours were on today there were
many evidences that Mr. Vanderbilt's
condition was more serious perhaps than
the early bulletin would imply.
A gentleman who is very closely asso-
ciated with Mr. Vanderbilt said, when
seen at the Grand Central depot this morn-
ing, that he had private advices to the ef~
fact that Mr. Vanderbilt’s condition is
really serious and that the crisis has not
yet passed.
The same gentleman also said that while
there was no official announcement ready
as to when Dr. Depew will sail from Eu-
rope for this city he expects that he will
start for home on Saturday. Such was
315 the belief of persons in Mr. H. Walter
We b’s office.
The Matahela Uprising.
LONDON, July 17.——A dispatch from
Bulawayo to The Daily Telegraph says
that 1,500 hitherto friendly natives have
joined the revolt in Matabeleland. All
building contracts have been canceled, and
most of the population are preparing to

from Salisbury is very bad. It is said that
the campfirescf the Mashonas are visible
close to the longer, and an attack is ex-
pected.
And This Is the Nineteenth Century.
LONDON, July 17. -—-A dispatch received
here today from Wady-Haifa reports that
the messenger who carried the news to the
caliph at Omdurman that his army had
been defeated at Flrket was immediately
put to death by crucifixion. The caliph
announced that the same fate as that
which befell the messenger would be im-
posed upon any one who mentioned Firket
in his hearing.
Drowned “'hile Learning to Swim.
STROUDSBURG, Pa., July 17. —Clara Wil-

THE BOND INQUIRY.
Senator Harris Considering the Question
of Completing It This Summer.
WASHINGTON, July ,17.—Senator Harris,
chairman of the senate committee to in-
vestigate recent bond issues, says he has
not yet determined whether the commit-
tee will wait until fall before going on
with its investigation or will complete
the work, frame the report and make it
public this summer. The last meeting
adjourned subject to the call of the chair-
man, and the present purpose is to wait
until fall before continuing the inquiry,
but Mr. Harris says that conditions may
arise, incident to the campaign, that would
make it desirable to present all the facts
and the.report to the public at once. In
doing this, he added, no political motives
would be involved, and the only purpose
would begin clear up doubts and unfound-
ed charges growing out of the excitement
arising from national contest. The chain
man says that if public misapprehension
should arise on bond questions it would
be prOper to give the public the amplest
information without reference to whom
it would benefit or injure.

Doctors are often handicapped by the
mere fact that when treating the diseases of
women, they su est and insist on “ exam-
inations” and ‘ local treatment.” A great
many of them do not know that this is abso-
lutely unnecessary. Many a woman has
been thrown into a dangerous state of ner-
vous excitement by the mere suggestion of
such treatment. Many women lie to the
doctor. That sounds hard, but it is un-
doubtedly true. They know that if they
admit certain symptoms that the doctor
will inevitably insist on an “examination.”
They do not give him all the facts in the
case, and so he works in the dark. Quite
often the doctor is too bus and too hurried
to make the necessary e 011: to obtain the
facts. He frequentl treats symptoms for
what they appear to on the surface, when
the real cause and the real sickness is deeper
and more dangerous. A derangement of
the distinctly feminine organs will derange
the whole body. The woman herself may
not know exactly what is the matter with
her, but whenever she is sick, there are two
things she should look out for first. One is
what is called “female weakness;” the.
other is constipation, for these two things
frequently go together. Dr. Pierce’s Fa-
vonte Prescription is designed for the cure
of diseases and disorders of women, and it
does cure them. It has been performing its
healing mission for 30 years, and tens of
thousands of women have been made hap y
by it“ Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are or
constipation, and contingent ills. Druggists
sell them, but sometimes in well meaning
Ignorance, they will try to sell you some-
thing else. There is nothing “just the
same” or “just as good.” The druggist
who tells you there is, is either mistaken
or dishonest.
