Islands, Falls Dead at the Presidents
Reception.
WASHINGTON, Jan. L. At the President S
reception today shortly after Mr.. Elisha H.
Allen, minister of the Hawaiian Islands, had
been presented to the President, he complained
OF feeling unwell and proceeded to the ants
room for bis onter clothing. On his way to
the room he was attacked with vertigo, and
was assisted into the small room opening from
the vestibule on the west Here he was
promptly attended by physicians but he grew
worse and soon in spasms. From this condi
tion he never rallied, and died before it had
become generally known that he was ILL., The
Oldest Inhabitants Association was passing
before the President when the death OF Mr..
Allen was announced. AT this point the music
stopped and the reception ended aud the
crowd slowly dispersed
The President said the event had to him the
force OF an evil omen, occurring as 1t has at
his New Years reception which he had hoped
to make SO brilliant, and folio wing SO closely
upon another tragic event which has shadowed
his administration.

ary 28 1904 His father was Hon. Samuel G
Allen OF Northf4ld, an eminent LAWYER of
Western Massachusetts Mr.. Allen graduated
at Williams College in 1928 and removed to
Brattleboro, VT, and later to Bangor, Me-. and
there formeda a law partnership with Mr. Apple
ton who has since been Chief Justice of Maine.
In 1885 Mr.. Allen was sent to the State legis-
ture, nj in 1888 eli cted speaker OF the House.
In 1910 he was elected to Congress, aud in
1850 or '5l appointed consul to the Hawaiian
Islands. A few years ago he became Hawaiian
Minister OF Finance, In 1857 he was appoint
ed Chief Justice and Chancellor of the KING
dom, which position he held upwards of TWEEN
~ years. Mr.. Allen visited this country twice
to negotiate reciprocity treaty between
Hawaii and the United States, and in 1870 was
again accredited as minister to this country
and held the position ever since. He then had
frequent interviews with Mr.. Sumner on the
question of the treaty, and in 1879 the presen
treaty was negotiated between Mr.. Allen and
Mr.. Fish, then Be retsry OF State

Roller skating Rink.

This popular place of amusement was wen
patronized throughout the day. In the even
ing the hall was filled TO oYerhowing and
those who took part in skating found it almost
impossible to skate owing to the crowd. Tue
music was all that could be desired. and every
thing went to show that those who visited the
rink during the day enjoyed themselves.
One thing in particular we notice at the rink
this year is the attention which Mr.. George
W. Whitney, the instructor. shows to new
beginners. Mr.. Whitney is never partial and
seems to be continually looking out for their
wishes. Out of the large number present
both Christmas and yesterday, there were
very few who escaped the watchful eye of the
instructor.

Suicide of the Mayor of Salem.
SALEM, Mass, Jan. Mayor ColIey whose
term OF Office expired to-day. committed nj
eide by hanging this afternoon between and
4 o'clock.
The suicide was not much of surprise to
the intimate friends of Mayor Colley. Abont
year ago he lost his wife to whom he was de-
votedy attached, but seemed to recover from
the shock within few months Last winter
he was appointed to receive and count ballots
at a caucus for representatives and was subse-
quently charged with wrongful manipulation
OF the returns. This charge was denied by him
both in public and in private, and when it was
understood that he was in poor health and his
memory was failing him the majority of his
fellow citizens were inclined to view charita-
bly, the apparent mistakes in the returns. These
charges however pieyed upon his mind, and
be has been somewhat gloomy and despondebt
ever since. Before the city election he was
urged to run again for the mayoralty but learn
ing that the charges above mentioned would
be extensively circulated by his opponents, he
declined. For the past two weeks he has been
very restless and disheartened.
