A Crime in Massachusetts, Better Suited
to Border Town.

"a" AMEsBuRY, Mass, January 14.-David
Sanborn, well-known citizen of Sails
bury, was shot by some unknown man
this evening and will probably die. Mr..
Sanborn had been to Newbury
port, where he had drawn large
sum of money. He arrived home about
5. About an hour later he was called to
the door by men who had driven up. The
strangers demanded Mr.. Sanborn's mon
ey. Upon the latter declaring that he
had none, one of the would-be robbers
shot him, the ball passing through his
left lung. The men drove off. There is
no clue to their identity, as Mr.. Sanborn
can give but a partial description.

A Chilian Trick.

SAN Francisco, January 1.-THE tes-
timony at the Mare Island inquiry yester--
day explains how the Chilians obtained
the American sailors approval of the
acts of the Valparaiso police. The sig
natures of number of sailors were Sc
cured to document written in Spanish,
which was represented as mere formal
acknowledgment that they were not en-
gagged in rioting. Now it is clear that
this was the exoneratiOn of the police, OF
which the Chilian authorities make SO
strong point, and that the sailors We're
tricked into signing what everybody
knew was not true.

Yesterday.

Death of the Venerable Cardinal Manning
Yesterday.
LONDON, January 14.-Cardinal Man
ming died at o'clock this morning. His
condition had been hopeless for many
hours and it was hardly supposed he
would live through the night. Early
this morning he began to fail rapidly but
he was able to join in the prayers offered
at his bedside. At 20 minutes past he
became unconscious and died at s
o'clock. His death was calm and pain
less and appeared like gentle sinking to
sleep. The household of the Cardinal is
in the deepest distress and there are pa
thetic scenes in the hall of the old men
and other faithful attendants and friends
who are weeping for the departed pre-
late.
Henry Edward Manning, Cardinal, was
born at Totteridge, Herefordshire, Eng
land, in July, 1903; studied theology at
the University of Oxford, and was ap-
pointed rector of Lavington and Graffam
in Sussex in 1884, and archdeacon of Chi
chester in 1910; but the Gorham case oc-
casioned him to give up in 1851 his pre-
ferments in the Anglical church and join
the Roman Catholic. After residing for
several years in Rome, he was ordained
priest in 1857 and appointed rector OF
ST. Helen and st. Mary's, Bayswater, and
on the death of Cardinal Wiseman in
1865 lie was nominated archbishop of
Westminster. He was created Cardi-
nal, March Is, 1875. He founded the
Roman Catholic University of Kensing-

Power of the Pope QS66), England
and Christendom, dS67), "Petri Privi-
legum,'' 1s71), and "Unity of the
Church." QS72). Cardinal Manning re-

in which they were interested. Smiling
at their ea1nestness, he said; That's

That's the only way to get work do1ein

is Thinking about wT2Rgs and signing
over them never NEEDED one. But the
people who exert themselves to right the
wropg, making a good stir about 1t
while they do, and worrying at other
people to exert themselves, too, will often
force the other people into activity in
sheer self defense.
The other people would like to sit
quiet and take it out in signing, but
these energetic fussers will not let them.
