fore little more than seventy-seven
years OF age. His grandfather on his
mothers side was taken prisoner during
the French war of 1715, at the burning
of R1yalton. VT, but afterward
ransomed. Young Rice attended a
common school and an academy aud
studied law at Richmond, Vt. He
emigrated to the territory Of Michigan
in 1885, and was employed i'll making
surveys of Kalamazoo and Grand rivers,
and on the survey of the Sault Sainte
Marie canal in 1887.
In 1887 he left Michigan for the West.
and with his pack travelled on foot over
POO miles. Then there were only a few
white settlers. but good many Indians,
! the country being almost barren will
derness.
He came TO Fort Smelling, Minn., in
1S49, and was connected with the suit
ler's department at that post. In 1910
he was appointed sutler at Fort Atkln-
son, remaining there until 1912. He
then became an agent of fur trad
ing company of the Choteaus of
st. Louis, and established trading
posts from Lake Superior to the
Red River of the North. On Aug. 2,
1S47, he served as United States COM
missioner st Fond du Lac in making a
treaty with the Ojibway Indians for the
cession of the country south of Crow

mddenIy he sank into a comatose con-
litIon, which, even then, was not con-
Iidered fatal.
His wife and daughter hardly realized
Ahe seriousness of the situation up to
yesterday morning. Then it became
apparent that his end was near. He
lied with no apparent pain-a peaceful,
happy death. His malady was from
third attack of pneumonia. yet it came
in form which carried him intoiuncon
sciousness and beyond the sense of
suffering.
1t was a peaceful and quiet ending of
lnoble life. He had lived beyond the
allotted term of human life-dlstin-
guiShed and pure career-and his horde
Of admirers will find surcease in the
thought that he passed away without
suffering.
Mr.. Rice was unique character in
Minnesota, belonging, as he did, to the
bld-time politicians. lie was made
United States senator when Minnesota
was made q state, in 1857, and thus
served in the senate with Stephen A.
Douglas, Charles Sumner, jefferson Da-
Wis. Bob Toombs, and all those world
famed people Of ante-bellum times. He
was not merely a senator from new
state, but one OF so much distinction
that he was visited from time to time at
his home in st. Paul by Douglas, Davis,
ard all the most distinguished senators
of those times.
The news of the death was wired to
Mrs. Maurice Auerbach. daughter of
the deceased, by Capt. r. E. Thompson,
son-in-law of Mr.. Rice, who is stationed
at San Antonio. The telegram was
brief. hence little is known at prese mt
of the last moments Of the distinguished
citizen beyond the fact that he has
passed away.
MIR. Rice was not strong when he left
for Texas. but the climate there seemed
to agree with him, and his family grew
very hopeful that he would soon
be fully recovered. They were
encouraged in this hope up
to within week, for he was
growing to every appearance very Wig
orous for man of his age. The change
came so suddenly that his wife and
daughter were unable to realize that
serious results were at hand until he
passed to the great beyond. The end
came at o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The surviving children of Mr.. Rice
are Mrs. Matilda Auerbach, wife of the
well-kDown citizen, Maurice Auerbach

LADY FAIRFAX DIVORCED.
So Robert, Boylan the Exist. Pau
Reporter, Will Marry Again.


CHICAGO. Jan. 15.-Her name was
Lady Fairfax. and her father was all
English earl. She was travelling with
her governeSs in this country four years
ago. and in the course of her travels she
came to ST. Paul. There she occupied
beautiful apartments at the Hotel Ryan,
and was quite the social sensation in
the SANITY city. He was a newspaper
correspondent, and he had just come in
from a trip to the ghost dances at the
Pine Ridge Agency. There were still
eagle feathers in his hair and buckskin
fringe on his trousers.
Lady Fairfax saw the handsome
stranger, and she lost her heart. Within
a week there was grand wedding at
groom, and Lady FairfaX, title and all,
was the bride.
Robert j. Boylan is well known to
the newspaper men Of Minneapolis and
st. Paul. He was employed on the
Pioneer press at the time OF his mar
riage to Lady Fairfax. whom he met at
the Hotel Ryan. This was in January,
1891.
Lady Fairfax went to England with
her stern parent, who came over when
he heard of her marriage. That was
four years ago. Mr.. Boylan went to
Chicago. Occasionally she wrote to
him.
A year ago the letters stopped coming
over the ocean, and, naturally, none
were received at the Paris convent in
return. The link that bound two hearts,
separated by the wide Atlantic, was
gradually growing weak. At last ii
broke.
divorce proceedings were COM
menced, and on the ground of desertion
a decree was easily obtained. So now
Lady Fairfax is again Lady Fairfax,
pure and simple, and Mr.. Boylan is
free from his alliance with the English
aristocracy.
There is sequel to this international
romance. 1t lies in the fact that within
a couple of weeks Mr. Boylan will wed
a charming American woman, who has
won deserved reputation in Chicago as
literary worker.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Dr. o. V.
Tousley. of Minneapolis, is in Wash
ington, struggling to make his
Columbian exposition Job immortal. He
is member of the board of control, and
has succeeded il having himself put at

This means that DR.. Tousley, when he
gets the exposition committee to grant
him $4,000. will proceed to employ a
crew of literary carpenters, and boss
the job of building history of Chi
cago's unparalleled advertisement. If
DR.. Tousley could only photograph his

down in shorthand. so that it might be
reproduced in fac-simile, it would be a
great feature for the immense literary
task-that he is struggling to get money
for. DR.. Tousley will secure his ap-
preparation, and thus be in at the death

MILWAUKEE, Jan. Is. = Falsified
books, inflated assets, worthless securl-
ties, bad loans, and nothing. or next to
nothing for the depoSitors,is the history
of the financiering which caused the
wreck of the South Side Savings bank,
according to the testimony of Expert
August p. Conrad. who testified in the
case of Banker John B. Koetting today.
He swOre that On the morning OF July
81, 1898, when the bank closed, there
were in the bank S244,0O0 of assets, to
meet liabilities of Sl,620,03S.31. or an
actual deficiency of 81 100000. MIR. Con-
swore he found that according to the
official published statements of the
bank there should have been capital
of 800. 900, but he found no mention OF
it in the books, and did not put 1t
in his statement of liabilities. He
searched the books as far back
as they go and found a state
ment in the books of 1872, where the
capital was mentioned as 5000, and
this was the only reference. The wit
ness said: 1.-The Schlesinger account

resent all that it was Overdrawn. There
were overdrafts amounting to $4,000,
but he could find no entries in the
books. The witness learned of these
overdrafts from a letter written by
Koetting, and by comparing accounts
with Ferdinand SchleSinger. He said
the claim against Schlesinger aggregat-
ing S55q 7Id 5S was worth five cents on
the dollar. This statement caused a
sensation in the crowded court room,
and the penniless depositors had heard
what they expected-that every hope

An Ideal China Closet.

From Harpers Bazaar.
II should be built between the dining
room and the kitchen. so that II can be
entered unobserved when guests are at
table.
The shelves should not be more than four
teen inches wide and about nineteen inches
apart. Where they are wider than this the
tendency is to pile too many dishes upon
them, and they are apt to give way. There
is no reason why should cling to tradi-
ton and cover these shelves with white
paper or muslin. Why should not CORFU
gated rubber, such as has already found its
way at the side of kitcf en- sinks, be intro
duced? There IL a slight odor about this
material. but china does not take IL, and
the chances of dishes slipping or breaking
by falling upon the shelf would be de-
creased so per cent.
A serviceable device for use when plates
are stood on end is to rope instead of
a cleat to hold them, and to fasten Ii at the
corners and in the center by double-headed
tacks driven down tightly into the shelves.
Being slightly yielding. the plate is less apt
to fall over from a sudden jar or slight
blow.
Where possible glass should be stored by
itself In the most modern houses cabinets
are built in the dining room for this pur-
pose. The narrow side shelves found In
most chira closets are best for glasses. All
drinking glasses should be arranged In
groups. ard far enough apart SO that there
will be no confusion or mistake in brin ging
them out v hen needed.

Dresses of cotton stuffs are made for
small children so that the gathers will
draw out quite fiat, SO they may be easily
washed. ironed and then drawn back into
their original shapes. This device must
have been invented by a mother who had
several little ones to keep In order and
was anxious to find a comparatively simple
way of doing 50.
Flannelettes, compromise between wool
and cotton, are excellent for children s
wear, as they wash well and do not shrink.
They are in single colors as a rule but
may be obtained with daintily colored
figures on pale grounds.
Shocking is still fashionable for the deco
ration of children's gowns, cloaks and
aprons. 1t should be done in an easy, elas-
tic fashion, so that it will not iraw the gar
rnent or constrain the active movements of
the tiny wearer. y. V. X.
