WASHINGTON, Jan. 1t.-Beniamin f.
Butler, the lawyer, soldier, statesman,
politician and millionaire manufacturer,
lied at his Washington residence, No. 300
New Jersey avenue, southeast, ut 1880
this morning
The General has always, TO a more OF
less extent, made his residence in Wash
ington, although many Of the scense of
his successful ventures have been located
elsewhere
During the present winter a case which
had been decided against him in the
highest court OF Massachusetts, and in
which he took an appeal to the United
States Supreme Court, has demanded his
almost constant residence in this city.
Every Monday be was familiar figure at
the session of that body.
The familiar face and ad-brimmed
hat of Gen. Butler was seen in the Su-
preme Court in General Term yesterday
The old contest over the will of Samuel
Strong, heard by the General Term on an
appeal from the Circuit Court was to
have been tried this term. Judge o. d.
Barrett asked the court to put the case
down for hearing this week TO accommu-
date Gen. Butler as it might not be CON
yenient for him to attend later in the
term.
The court was obliged to refuse the re-
quest as other important cases had the
precedence and the bench is short
handed until Judge Cole takes his seat.
The General was accompanied to the
city by his valet, West, a coIored man.
Shortly after / o'clock the valet heard
the General coughing severely and has
tened TO his bedside. The General spoke
Of having eXpecUorated blood, but did not
seem to think seriously Of the matter
and the valet was dismissed. Shortly
atterwurd West was again alarmed by the
heavy breathing Of the General and once
more hasJened 90 his side, but before help
could be summoned the General had
breathed his last.
His death was due to heart failure.

MANY of the South Sea islanders be-

man will die rather thnn submit to am

PANDORA, according to the Greeks,
was the first woman; her name signifies

NOT so BAD AS IT MIGHT BE.
Tho Climate OF Alaska Not Worse Thnn
That OF OREGON.

Tho Climate OF Alaska Not Worse Thnn
That OF Oregon.
a newspaper correspondent who
spent the winter in q settlement on the
Yukon river, Alaska, reports that the
climate was not SO bad Us Inc had been
led to expect. At tho time of writing
he had been out every day, and could
testify thGt he often suffered more
from cold in Oregon than in that local
ity of tho Arctic circle. This, he be-
icvcd, was owing to the fact that there
wcrc no high and furious winds. A
mission priest gave him a record of
moan monthly temperatures for the
period commencing July 1, 1890, and
ending juno so, 1901. from this it APP
pears that the mean temperature (the
record was taken at five o'clock n. IN.
every day. for July was flfty-two de-
grccs, August forty-fivc, September
forty, October twcnty-scvcn, December
eleven degrees below zero, January
eight degrees below, March thirteen
above and juno fifty. Thirty degrees
below zero was the coolest the writer
himself had experienced ct any time.
The locality of these records was in
latitude siXty-four degrees forty min
utcs north and near the ono hundred
md fifty-eighth meridian, west longi-
tudc. The people there, he says, arc
much given to wearing cults of cotton
material over their furs, and the tradi-
tional Alaskan, almost smothcrcd in
parlias or long coats of fur, scarcely
exists to-day. The advantage of wear
ing cotton goods" which the natives
arc willing to take as payment for la
Dor, is that they do not hold snow and
frost, which collect rapidly on the fur
garment, to the annoyance of tho
wearer.
