Exceedingly painful News.

Tho many friends Of Representative and
Mrs. Skinner, Of New York, Will be panied to
hear OF the death of their little daughter Alice,
who died at WATERFOWL, N. Y, the homo Of tho
SINNERS, yesterday morning, In tho eighth
year OF her age. Mr.. Skinner lot tho city
Monday week, on tho receipt of telegram
from his wife requesting his presence, and
friend OF the family, received n dispatch from
Mr. skinner, saying, 'our dear little Alice is
dead" Miss Alice Will be remembered at tho
Capitol as Mr.. skinner took natural pride In
taking her TO the Capitol with her little
brother Harold. Both these children were
among tho subjects OF an article In THE CRITIC
about the children of the Representatives.
Miss Alice was a petite little blonde, with
laughing blue eyes, and was very bright
child for her age, and her death leaves Mr..
and Mrs. skinner with only ono child to keep,
but the memory OF another TO cherish. They
have the heartfelt sympathy OF their numer-
GUS friends In thoir bereavement.

THE EAST GRAND STREET CROSSING QUESTION.
Friends in favor of the petition for the
bridging of the East Grand street crossing,
Fair Haven East, just beyond the Second
Congregational church, maintain their side of
the case as follows: They say that the
Grand street crossing by bridge has the en-
dorsement of nearly all who feel any interest
in improvements, and that it is the only
crossing that can be had. They aHege that
the grade may be made eight feet to every
one hundred, and this will not seriously in
jure anybody. The material for making ap-
proachas is near at hand. They say that
there can be no safety in grade crossing
for the increasing travel, and that the recent
statute providing for the assessment of bene-
fits and damages will give every
one injured reasonable compensation that
no existing highway is TO be discontinued
and no crossing will be made more dangerous
when tho contemplated improv ements are
finished and all benefits ard damages ad-
justed will commend the wisdom and fore
sight of the bridge advocates and that those
who specially favor the bridge will be the
first to assist any who may be injured to Sc
cure compensation. The above is substan-
TALLY the standpoint of the advocates of the
bridge.

General GaribaIdi Dead.


ROME, June General Giuseppe Carl.
baldi died at his house on the island of Ca
prera at half-past O'Clock this evening from
an attack of bronchitis from which he has
been suffering some time. The General was
born at Nice July %, 1907.
General Garibaldi's fatal illness was of
short duration, but was occasioned by long
existing asthmatic complaint which devei-
oped suddenly into a sharp attack of bron-
chitis which was further increased by the
great debility of the patient and he rapidly
succumbed to the attack. News of his criti-
cal condition reached the different members
of his family residing in Rome and Genoa
this morning and they Immediately started
for Caprera, but failed to arrive in time to
see the general alive, his death having taken
place some hours previous. The government
on learning of his serious illness sent DR..
Albanese, of Rome. to his bedside, but the
doctor could afford him no relief. General
Garibaldi died while in struggle, but was
conscious till near she end
