Death Of Mrs. NJ. T.. Tracy.

Mrs. Marcia (Paine), widow of the late
Z. IL. Tracy, died Monday morning after
an illness of only three days duration.
She had been staying in Brookfield a
few weeks at the homes of her cousins,
Cassius and Marcus Peck, but not feeling
very well Friday she was anxious to
be at home again and was brought
down from Brookfield in a team. Sue
was not, it seems, strong enough to en-.
dure the journey and suffered intensely
all the way, and after her arrival, until
death relieved her.
Mrs. Tracy was born in Brookfield in
1929, and lived in Tunbridge during her
early married life.
Twenty-four years ago, she and her
husband came to Randolph, where his
death occurred some six years since.
Three children were born to them-a
son, Wilson, who, at the age of nineteen,
was killed in Tunbridge by being thrown
from a sleigh; and two daughters, Mrs.
Frank hutchinson, who lives in Worces
ter, this state, ana Mrs. Gilman b. Dodge
of Lisbon, n. III.
Mrs. Tracy also left a sister, Mrs. L. p.
Libbey of Randolph, and a brother, Mr..
Arthur Paine of Fairlee.
The funeral service was conducted at 9
O'Clock yesterday morning, at her late
home on School street, by the Rev. V. M.
Hardy, pastor of the Congl church.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hutchinson, Mr.. and Mrs.
Dodge and MIR. and Mrs. Arthur Paine
were able to be present at the service.

San Francisco Chronicle under date Of
September 24th:-
1--WE find the defendant not guilty by
reason OF insanity announced Lawyer
Fleming from the jury box OF Judge
Bahrs' court yesterday.
Gentlemen of the jury, thank you,

young woman.
Such was the ending OF Miss Emma
Ashley's trial for shooting at E. j. Bald
win IN Judge Slack's court last July. The
jury reached a verdict in less than two
minutes, and it was not even found nee
essary to take ballot, as the jurors were
all OF one mind and so expressed them
selves by UiUd Uoce vote.
Before receiving the verdict, Judge
Bahrs sternly warned the spectators IN
the room to make no demonstration eth.
er OF approval or disapproval. As the re-
suit OF this warning, the verdict OF the
jury was received in almost complete ST.
lenee. The only interruption came from
the prisoner. As the jurors filed into

dict her expression changed as II by mag

cheeks took on a tinge of pink, and as
Miss Ashley appeared at the moment, she

Lillian Ashley occupied The seat at her
sisters side. To her the result OF the trial
seemed foregone conclusion. She re-
ceived the verdict without demonstration,
although looking the pleasure she did not
care TO express by act or word,
The verdict OF acquittal was generally
expected. The officers OF the prosecution
conceded some days ago that IT WIuid De
Impossible to secure a conviction.
The plea of insanity gained force at the
outset from the evidence of Judge Slack,
who declared his belief at the time OF the
shooting that Miss Ashley was insane
The belief was shared by many other WIT
nesses and, added to this, was the consio'
Grafton that Baldwin received no injury.
The proceedings III the case yesterday
were very brief, the only witness calleu
being DIR. Jonn w. Robertson, who was
examined as an expert for the prosecu-
ton.
DIR. Robertson stated, in response to
long Hypothetical question, that be
thought Miss Ashley 10 have been insane
on the day OF the shooting. He founded
his opinion, in a measure, upon the APP
peaIance OF the young woman as he saw
her sitting in the court room.
The case was briefly argued by Assist
ant District Attorney Peixotto for the
people, and by Attorney Friedericn TO-
the defense.
Peixotto took the position that CRIME
had been committed, and insisted thai
the proof was insufficient TO establish tina,
at the time OF the shooting the defendant
was insane.
The only argument OF Attorney Fried
erich was in line with the theory Of the
defense.

LANDING OF THE MAYFLowER.
Fact Retold at the Anniversary OF
the Event.

Two hundred and seventy-six years
ago yesterday, g. small band of pious
men gathered in the dim rays Of slush
lamp in the cabin of the Mayf1ower and
drew up document providing for the
first form of civil government held upon
the new continent by the subjects Of
the British Crown.
Last night a score of descendants of
these men, and the chiidren's children's
children of the heroes who fought in
the colonial wars, gathered at the Ryan
to do honor to- the memory of their
progenitorS. ~
The Society of Colonial Wars, whose
axiom is that of patriotism and whose
certificate of membership is the proof
that the holdersis the steenth grand
son, of Miles Standish, or some other
illustrious and colonial parsonage, held
a meeting at the Ryan for business
purposes, and wound UP with pretty
little banquet in one Of the small din
ing rooms. The business session re-
suited In the transaction of but little
routine of public interest. A memorial
was presented by Capt. Philip Reade

be asked to pass a new and better law

for advertising purposes a criminal
offense.

DIAMOND MATCH AND BISCUIT.

Among the many evidences of the
release Of industrial energy from the
compress of doubt and apprehension,
with pleasure. A Chicago dispatch
tells of the prompt reopening of the
stock exchange the day after election.
THE exchange room was brilliantly il
Illuminated, every electric lamp in the
room being called into requisition .
Under the high-sounding name of
"stock exchange" the room is really
nothing but a gambling den, where
those woefully misnamed stocks, the
'industrials," are played with. These
are the stocks Of the various trusts,
'Strawboard,' Biscuit Diamond
Match and the others that have been
organized to throttle competition at
home, so as to reap the full benefits
of the smothering Of foreign COMPETE
ton by tariff laws absurdly called
protective"
1t was the exploiting of the stocks
of the Diamond Match and Biscuit
companies that led to the closing of the
exchange last August and came so
near precipitating another panic on
the country. 1t is dismal fact in our
industrial conditions that it is the
gamblers in stocks and trade, some
times euphoniously termed spectators
by those for whom gambler seems too
harsh a name, who create the condi-
lions that generate panics and bring
ruin to honest industry. Sometimes
they operate in congress, but usually
on boards of trade and stock exchang-
es. Germany has enacted a stringent
law, something after our proposed an
ti-option law, to prevent this preying
upon industry, and it's working will be
watched with interest
1t is not reassuring to have the ad-
vent Of currency stability hailed and
made notable by this reopening of the
Chicago stock gambling den. 1t is not
reassuring to see the trusts jubilant
and their stocks booming Straw
board" advanced Bidding was brisk
for Diamond Match, and Biscuit cas-
sumed an activity Immediately upon
being reached that promised well for
its continuance among the ranks of the
leaders of the market" the account of
the opening tells US. It is evident that
the trusts feel that they have nothing
to fear from the new administration,
and that they expect a return of the
conditions that made their stocks have
value they could not have but for
the restriction of competition.

The magnetic individuality of Mr.. Bryan ia
freely acknowledged by members of all parties.
Probably in no other instance in this country
was any other candidate so subjected to the
cathode rays of public inspection, and GER
tatnIy no other man ever passed through such
a public examination with more credit or
renown. Therefore though beaten in a fair
contest, the American people WILL with pride
accord to Mr.. Bryan the tribute due to a
citizen peculiarly distinguished by eminent
endowments and worth.-New York Herald
Whatever Mr.. Bryan may have done for
himself, there Is no question about his making
fool of the Democratic party.-Toledo Com
mercial.
Bryan is the leader and must remain at
the head of the column: No man can throw
him from leadership. No one can take his
place until he has triumDhed. The man
who would attempt to rob him of his laurels
would be Kissed down by the American peo-
ple.-Butte Miner
In view of the elements combined against
him, Mr.. Bryan's election would have been
miraculous. He is defeated but his cam
paign will go down in history as one OF the
most magnificent fights against difficulties
ever conducted by presidential candidate.
There is something that is even better than
success = deserving to succeed. - Faribault

The message of congratulation from Bryan
to Mckinley was a hearty expression of his
desire and intention to submit gracefully and
without cavil to the will Of the people. 1t
showed the true American spirit upon which

IRELAND STORY SECUTED.
RumOr of His Removal Is Generally
Discredited

ROME, Nov. 1.-THE statement cir
culated in the United States that the
pope has decided to remove Arch
bishop ireland from the diocese of st
Paul is untrue. But it is stated by
those qualified to know, that Arch
Bishop Ireland has lost the greater
part of the former. consideration in
which he was held at the Vatican. anC
the course he pursued in the late cleo
ton in the United States has increased
this disfavor
BALTIMORE, Nov 1.-THE Catholic
dlgnitaries in this city appear to plac :
but little reliance in the report that
Archbishop Ireland will be removed.
but none of them from Cardinal Glib
bons down, will discusss it for publica-
ton.
WASHINGTON Nov. 11.-When in
qu1ry was made at the papal delegation
concerning report that Archbishop
ireland had been summoned to Rome.
and would be removed from the see
OF st. Paul, it was stated that no in
formation, direct or indirect, on the
subject had been received: that Arch
bishop Ireland had not been asked to
Rome up to the present time, and
tnat there was no indication that he
would be asked. Further than this.
the officials of the delegation would not
discuss the report

eminent ecclesiastical authorities. bav-
ing sources of official information. II Is
learned that the attention Of Rome
mas been called, in an indirect manner
to a sermon delivered by Archbishon
ireland at Washington, on the occa-
sion OF the conservation of Rishon
OGorman. In this sermon, the arch
plSnop referred to the bishops as the
main strength of the Catholic church.
AS the Jesuits and other religious or
ders have no bishops, the expression
was construed to be a reflection on the
orders. 1t is not known that the SER
mon was officially communicated to
Rome, but it has certainly reached
there and has been the subject of re-
cent adverse comment in the Civitta
Catollca, the organ Of the Jesuits at
Rome, OF which the Rev. Father Bran
di is editor The paper while unof-
hc1al as representing the views of the
Vatican, has an influence, and at the
time of Archbishop Irelands visit to
Rome on the Faribault school question
this influence was directed against the
views he represented. From the recent
publicity at Rome given to the Ireland
sermon it is the judgment of those in
position to understand the facts that
this is the basis for the reports from
Z Rome that Archbishop Ireland has
been summoned there and removed 1t
is believed that the popes decision will
be adverse to those seeking Irelands
removal. Further than this there has
been nothing from Rome to indicate
the displeasure of the pope and others
in authority.
The archbishop's advocacy Of McKin-
ley's election has not figured in the
matter.
