Jules Simon on the Situation in
 Europe.
 PARIS, Oct. 2S.-Jules Simon, the dis tinguished French statesman and political economist and former chief of the republi- can party, in an interview published to- day, said he did not think war was proba- ble. He added: "While I was in Berlin as delegate to the international labor congress, Emperor William told me that he desired peace, and the tone in which he said go left no doubt in my mind that he was sincere. The czar also wants peace, and France will not be the nation to commence hostilities in Europe.
 M Simon declined to venture to say whether or not the eFranco-Russian entente included the agreement to expel Eng land from Egypt. He said he did not credit Russia with having any designs to conquer India, but he held that Russian expansion in Asia was only natural

Glover Club Entertainment.

Last Thursday evening, at Concor-
dia Opera house, occurred the annual
supper and bazaar Of the Glover club of
the Congregational church. The sup
per was served in the lower hall, and
was, of course, the foremost attraction.
The reputation for culinary attainments
which the Glover club ladies enjoy by
no means suffered on this occasion, a
choice and palatable array of viands
being furnished for the hungry ones.
The bazar took place in the upper hall,
where the booths were effectively ar
ranged SO as to represent in some sug-
gestive manner the days of the week
in rotation, forming the so-called "Fes-
tival of Days" A great variety of ar
ticles were offered for sale, and were
quite generally disposed of. Not the
least significant feature of the even
ing was the tableau Of 1.-THE Three
Fates"-Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos
represented by Mrs. Dura Woodland,
Miss Annie Bennett and Mrs. w. P.
Keyes. For the rendering of this, the
ladies' parlor was used. The scene pre-
scented a rather weird and unique as
pect, and was withal an artistic piece
of posing, very well done. A certain
party of visitors, however, were greatly
surprised to know that "one of the
models was possessed Of the power of
speech to degree that completely
baffled the staying qualities of the
party. The net receipts of the club
were about 1925

Death of a Former Watertown Resi-
dent.

dent.
Under the head of "Freeport's Great
Loss" The Freeport Gll.) Democrat of
December 5, 1891, records the death at
Lanark, H., of O. B. Sanford, a resident
of this city thirty years ago. The obit-
uary notice occupies over column in
The Democrat, attesting to the popu-
larity and prominence of the deceased.
The following extracts are taken:
O. B. Sanford, Freeport's well-known
resident and esteemed citizen, expired
at Lanark at 2 O'Clock this morning, his
demise being occasiOned by the acct
dent that befell him at that place
Thursday evening, having been struck
by the engine of freight train on the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul road.
The sad intelligence was flashed about
this city early this morning and was re-
ceived with mingled feelings of deep
regret, and sympathy for Mrs. Sanford,
who is Frustrated with grief ana re-
fuses to be comforted.
1t was known last evening that Mr.
Sanford's hours were numbered. DIR.
Caldwell, who left for Lanark yesteF-
day afternoon to see his patient, re-
turned at o'clock in. the evening,
bringing the sad report that Mr.. San
ford was failing rapidly and could not
possibly survive more than short
while at the longest. Rev. f.. z. Hill,
his pastor, went to Lanark yesterday
morning with Mrs. Sanford and Mrs.
Rowell, and they were at the bedside
of the deceased when the angel of
death came.
Since he became a resident here, of
all citizens he has been leading and
constant factor in the welfare of our
city. With large faith in the future
prosperity of our city, he was ever will
ing to give careful attention and thought
to any and all projects in the way Of
manufacturing and business interests
that would in any way assist in the i'm
portance and growth Of Freeport.
No man in Freeport has been more
prominent in religious circles than was
Mr.. Sanford. During his days here he
was identified with the First Presby~
terrain church and was always prime
mover in religious affairs Of whatsoever
a nature.
AS business man the deceased was
a member of the Sanford & Rowell
Lumber company, of this city, and of
the Morehouse Lumber company, of
Morehouse, Ark.
OBJ Sanford was born at Orwell, VT,
August 2, 1881. His father, William
Sanford, still resides on farm at Or
well, where be has lived seventyfve
years, but Mrs. Sanford, the mother of
the deceased, died about ten years ago.
When about q years of age the subject
of this sketch came west and located at
Milwaukee, where he lived several
years, going from there to Watertown,
Wis, to engage in the lumber business
From Watertown Mr.. Sanford came to
Freeport, where he formed a partner
ship with the late William d. Rowell
in the lumber business, residing in this
city since = about twenty-five years
The deceased was married to Miss
Louise Collins, sister of Mrs. w. D.
Rowell and Wallace Collins, in Ohio,
January II, 1859. No children survive
the union.
