ANOTHER OLD SETTLER GONE
Philip Nugent Dies Very Suddenly
of Heart Disease.


Yesterday afternoon about o'clock
Philip Nugent walked into Whittaker's
barber shop, corner of Fairfield and Da-
kota avenues, in the Sixth ward, and seat
ing himself ON sofa complained of a Pc
cuiar feeling in the region of his heart. A
few moments later he stretched out on the
sofa and died. Coroner Quinn was mott
fed OF the facts. but ordered his remains
taken to his residence, corner of Ohio and
Page streets.
Mr.. Nugent was an old settler here and
well known, having identified hims If with the
interests of St. Paul as early as 1855, settling
on the West side, where he purchased consid-
cradle property, then OF nominal
value, but now worth a high fig
ure. For years he has pursued the
vocation of farmer. He was born in Omagh
Tyrone county, Ireland, in the year 1908 and
was II years of age at the time of his death.
He emigrated from that country and came di-
rectly to Minnesota. He leaves a wife well
advanced in years and a family of six
children, all grown to man and womanhood.
James Nugent, one of his sons, has been con-
nected with the police force here for several
years, losing an arm in the service and now
fills the Office of license collector. Mccarthy
g. Donneliy took charge of the remains and
the funeral will take place from the Ca
thedral. The time Of the funeral will not be
determined until his daughter. who is in
New York, can be communicated with.

Col. Bends Case.

It's rumored that Senator j. N. Castle
will soon file a writ Of quo warranto for
Lieut.. Col. Harrison of Minneapolis to
show cause why he performs the duties of
colonel of the First regiment, Minnesota
National guards. 1t is alleged that while
filling the office Lieut.. Col. Harrison has
given orders that are expressly designated
as portion of the functions of the COM
mandant and this gives an opportunity for
a quo warranto. If the court decides adj
versey Col. Bend will resume command of
his regiment, if in favor of the governor
the matter will be dropped.

WASHINGTON JAM 29--"The chances are de-
cidedly against the passage of the Edmunds anti
dynamite bill, said Western Republican mem
Der to-day. "You see there is scarcely district
in the Eastern or Middle States in which the
Irish American voters do not hold the balance of
power and, while the Irish voters are not
think, as class, disposed to condone the offenses
g he fends who exploded the London dynamite,
still there are newspapers in every city that
would work up sentiment against every member
who votes for the Edmunds bill. Not because
these papers believe in the dynamite p1a1 but be-
cause partisanship will lead them to anything to
defeat an opponent. Then again, the bill, after
1t IS reported can only come up for considera-
ton by unanimous consent, and am informed
that the celebrated tail-twster Richelieu Robin
son, has already declared that he will fight it to
the bitter end"
Don't you think two thirds could be secured
to suspend the rules and pass itl"
tine opportunity for such motion will not
come up until the last days of the session, and
then there will be such rush of schemes, so
many jobs; and, BESIDES the excitement will
have materially cooled by that time. No; I
think there is more chance for Republican clerks
under Cleveland than for the Edmunds bill in
the present House"
