Smashing ‘Vindows in the White House

WASHINGTON, March 23.——.Had President
Harrison Saturday night sat, as he fre-
quently does, upon the rear portico of the
White House, he might have suifered seri—
ous bodily injury. A stepson of Senator
Vance, of North Carolina, raving like a
madman and yelling his threats to “lick
er. Harrison,” was caught trying to break
I through the windows of the red room and
l safely incarcerated in a police station.

This was not accomplished until after a
, fierce fight, which finally ended 1n his being

overpowered by three brawny policemen.

-He was finally bound with ropes and hur-
l ried behind the bars. Few except news-

paper correspondents were aware of the
i exciting incident.

‘ Smashing ‘Vindows to Gain an Entrance.
i It was between 8 and9 o’clock when Offi—
f cer John M. Kenny, who was stationed at
' the door of the main entrance to the White
House, was startled by a crash from the
rear.’ He rushed through to the red room
and discovered a powerfully built young
man dressed in an undershirt, trousers
and shoes, smashing the panes of glass in
the big bow window. As the intruder
rained blow after blow upon the heavy
' plates he kept shrieking:

“Where is the president? XVhere is the
president? Let me at him and I’ll knock
h——— out of him.”

Kenny tried to raise the sash, but was
met by a storm of missiles in the shape of
broken bits of glass. He summoned help.
Three stalwart officers leaped through to

the portico and grappled with the invader.
With fists, teeth and finger nails the fel-
low fought like a demon. His resistance
was so desperate that it became necessary
for Kenny to choke him almost into insen—
sibility. After a five minutes’ combat,
during which Kenny and his brother offi-
cers were clawed as if by a coyote, the man
was thrown and tied fast with ropes.

By this time the White House family
had been aroused, but the president and
Mrs. Harrison as well as the rest missed
witnessing the =melee. While the patrol
was on its way to the executive mansion
examination was made as to the identity
of the prisoner.

All that could be gleaned from him was
that he was a relative of Senator Jones, of
Arkansas. At last, however, he was recog-
nized as Henry Martin, a stepson of Sena-
tor Zeb Vance, of North Carolina. Upon
learning who the culprit was the president
very tenderly exclaimed, “Poor fellowl
poor fellow!”

Locked Up in a Cell.

At first it was intended to send him to
his home, 1,627 Massachusetts avenue.
He continued so violent, however, that it
was deemed safer to lock him up where he
could do no harm. Accordingly Martin,
bound hand and foot, was bundled into a
patrol wagon, and under a strong guard
driven to the First precinct station.
Throughout the trip he filled the air with
demonical yells, alternately cursing the
president and his captors and shouting:

“Mother! Mother! 011, my mother!”

Martin was carried into a cell, and no
sooner were his bonds thrown off than he
renewed his screeching and danced and
howled like a fiend. For a time it ap-
peared that he would have to be placed in
a strait jacket.

When old friends sought to quiet him
he cursed and threatened them with death.
One reporter of whom he caught sight he
threatened to shoot should anything as to
the escapade appear in the newspapers.
He kept crying constantly for his mother,
and at a late hour she appeared. She was
overcome with grief and shame.

GEN. JOSEPH E. JOHNSTON DEAD.
The Last Prominent Figure in the Late
“'ar Passes Away.

VVASHIXGTOX, March 23.—General Joseph
Eggleston Johnston died of heart failure
at his residence in this city at 11:15 o’clock
Saturday night. With him at the last mo—
ment was ex—Governor McLane, of Mary-
land, and the nurse. His death was very
sudden, and a few moments before dissolu-
tion there was no outward appearance to
indicate it. He then gasped feebly once or
twice, and the great leader of armies had
himself obeyed the last summons.

General Johnston had been confined to
his room for several weeks past, and dur-

ing the last few days had gradually grown
weaker. During the past twenty-four hours
he had remained in a semi-comatose condi-
tion and was aroused with difficulty. His
death was so peaceful that General Mc—
Lane, who was at his bedside, could not for
several moments believe that the general
was dead. - There was not a sigh, not a
movement; his heart ceased to beat and he
sank to rest as peaceably and as quietly as
a. babe to sleep.

In addition to his heart trouble, the gen-
:ral had contracted a severe cold when he
recently acted as pallbearer at the funerals
of Admiral Porter and General Sherman.
General Johnston was born near Farm-v
ville, Va., Feb. 3, 1809. He was graduated
in the same class as General R. E. Lee from
West Point in 1829, and ranked Lee at the
. War of the Rebellion, being his senior as a
| general in the Confederate army. After
I the war he served in congress from the
i Richmond (Va. ) district, and was subse-
' quently commissioner of railroads, being
I appointed hy President Cleveland. With
the death of General Johnston there is re-
moved the last prominent figure on either
side in the great civil war. The funeral of
General Johnston will probably take place
on Wednesday, and his remains will be in-
terred at Greenmount cemetery, Balti-
more, Md.

 

l Justifies Mob Law.

BOSTON, March 23.——Major E. F. Man-
ning, city clerk of New Orleans, delivered
a short address on the Mafia troubles in
New Orleans, before the New England club
on Saturday at Young’s. Mr. Manning is
the guest of the club. After reviewing the
causes which led up to the assassination of
Chief Hennessy and the killing of the
eleven Italians alleged to have been impli—
cated in the deed, he defended the action
of the citizens. He declared a calm con-
sideration of the facts would plainly show
the seriousness of the situation. The law
of the land had been trampled upon and
the citizens were left no alternative but to
protect themselves. He believed that under
I the circumstances mob law was justifiable.

CORSETS

Is this what “the women want?

Here's news for every woman who goes about with
broken corset bones. There’s a material that’ll neither
break nor roll up, and it’s guaranteed. A year is not too
short a time to wear out that warranty. If it does, here’s
your money without a word—out it won’t.

The material is Kabo. .

And more. it’s stitched in. double-stitched in, top
and bottom. and it can’t be worked out with any ordin-
ary wear. I

The Kabo corset is more than a common blessing
to the average woman. There’s no wearing out of corset
lacers by the sharp edge of the_eyclet; there’s nothing .to
rust, no eyelet visible through a thin dress; never a
breaking of a corset lace with those loop eyelets.

We take the risk in selling the Kabo 'corset.
