VICE PRECEDENT WILSON.

Henry Wilson, Vice President Of the
United States, died in Washington City
ON the morning of the 22d.
Henry Wilson was born at Farming
ton, \. IT., on the 10th of February,
1912. His parents beirg poor he was
denied the privileges of a thorough ed
ucation, but having inherited taste for
reading aud an insatia6le thirst for
knowledge. he let no opportunity es-
cape him to store his mind with useful,
practical Information, and thus in the
course OF time became one of the best
Informed men in the natirn. During
his Younger years Ire worked on a farm,
but after obtaining his majority he went
TO Natick, Massachusetts,, whele he
learned the trade. of shoemaker, at
which he worked until his fellow citi-
zens, di covering his ability and honesty
of purpose, elected him to positions of
honor and trust In 1910 he entered
the Presidential campaign, delivering
more than sixty speeches and doing
most effective service for Harrison. He
was thrice elected to the Massachusetts
Assembly, and four times returned to
Its Senate. IN 1915, together with
Whittier, the poet, he was selected to
carryeto Washington and present the.
great anti-slayery petition from Massa-
cluSetts against the annexation ofTexas.
lie edited the Boston Daily Republican
from 1913 to 1850, making it the lead
ing anti-slavery journal of the country
At that time. lie was member of the
Massachusetts, Constitutional Conven-
uon OF 1888, and the same year was tie
Free Soil candidate for Governor Of the
State. In 1855 lre was elected United
States Senator TO succeed Edward Ev-
erett, and was reelected III 1859 by a
unanimous vote. As Senator he was
an active opponent of tie slave power,
and was one of the very pillars of the
Government during the late rebellion.
All through the great reconstruction
ssrugg'e, says the Oyegoniat, lie was
one of the most careful of those states
men who considered it their first duty
to see that the advantages which liberty
had gained i'll the war should not be
frittered away. But when all these
were secured, he was among the fore
most in endeavoring to heal the wounds
OF the war and restore fraternal rcla-
tions between the North and the South.
Since his election as Vice President in
1872, lie has been so much out of health
that his labors have been subject to ire
quent Interruptions, but he found time
to finish his great historical work, COM
menced some years ago, on the "Rise
and Fall of the Slave Power in Ameri-
ca" which, if he Lad done no otIer
public service, would entitle him to the
gratitude of the country, and place him
among her great men.
lie goes to his reward mourned by
the entire ion.

Says the Virginia CK7.omie1e: Among
the few who have reason to be thankful
for the fire is lady whose home was
on North G street. She had been bed
rldpen for months having lost the use
other limbs, When the fire approach
ed her dwelling size was carrie d ont on
a blanket and was as feeble as an infaht.
Within half an hour, to the amazement
of herself and family, she disco, e-ed
that the use of her limbs had returned,
and from that moment she has been a
well woman. Her great fright had
worked cure.

The GENEVA AwARD.-A WASH
ington special says the commission
appointed under the act of congress on
the distribution of the Geneva award,
will finish their Iabors on the Goth OF
January, and will have about 9,000,-
600 of the SIS 900 900 unawarded to
claimants. The insurance companies
and individuals who took war prem :
ums have made combination, and will
endeavor to have bill passed through
congress at its coming session to cover
these losses. There is much feeling
over the matter. The direction of legis-
lation and recommendations sff congress
ionaI committees heretofore have been
against such claimants, on the ground
that the war premiums are excessive,
and that with few exceptions insures
made money. There are other claimants
for indirect damages, ruled ont by act
OF congress-, who will join the insurance
companies in the effort to pass q sup
Elementary act. Insurers claim they
took the risks with the expectation that
congress would relieve them if they
became bankrupt through the contii,-
gepcies of the war. There is prospect
of these bills being defeated, so that the
5000, 900 unexpended will go to keep
company with the French spoliation
fund in the treasury.
