can be found in the history of the country.
There is one thing which is more re
markable. and that Is the position Of The
man who was nominated for The presidency
on the republican ticket SO far as the prin-
cipal plank Of the party's platform is con
ocrncd
Major Mckinley had stood out almost In
direct opposition TO his party on the ques-

NOT "A REPUBLICAN TRIUMPH

Strange TO say. the European press, or a
portion Of It. has correctly estimated the
forces that placed Mckinley in the lead,
strange becsusc the European press is
generally densely ignorant of American
conditions.
I'll Temps OF Paris recognizes tho fact
that 1t was not unaided ropublicanism that
won victory. That paper says:

Death of Mrs. Charles Bigolow,

bthAh Ol Mrs Nnhtica DlSciOWs
The death of Mrs. Ellen L. Bigelow,
wife Of Charles Bigelow, OF the firm of
Eealey & Bigelow, occurred at her res
idence, 472 Orange street at o'clock,
yesterday morning, Mrs Bigelow had
been i'll for more than year, and dur
ing that time had undergone three sur
gical operations. performed IN New
York city, the last of which was per-
formed in August, and from the effects
of which she. did not rally. The deccas-
ed bore with patience and resignation
her sufferlngs. All that wealth and the
best medical and surgical skin in the
county could do, was done for her,
but to no avail, the !nsldtous nalaGy
proving ;ncurable.
The deceased lady was formerly q
Miss Pike of Portland, Me. She was
forty years OF age, and leaves a hus-
band, but no children. She attended
Humphrey street Congregational church
and had formed a large circle or
friends, who have deeply s2mpathized
with her i'll her long and painful i'll
ness.

years and at Taftville, Norwich, two
years. III 1882 he married Gertrude e.
Gilley of Norwich. Mr. Armstrong is
about forty years o. age, anG for {.
number OF years was superintendent o.
the Sunday school department of the
Christian Workers of Springfield, Mass.
Recently he has been superintendent Of
a Sunday school Of 1880, with The av7
erage attendance Of 1000 In Roohes-
ter, N. Y. Mr.. Armstrong has filled
several pastorstes, but Is especially
proficient in Sunday school work. Mrs.
Armstrong is also a very efficient work
er in Sunday school work. devoting her
time to the kindergarten department.
She has labored in the field for num-
Der of years, and In Rochester had
charge of this department in the school
in which Mr.. Armstrong was superin-
tendent. 1t is expected, with the assist
ance of Mr.. and Mrs. Armstrong, the
working force of both the church and
Sunday school, especially the latter,
will be greatly increased.
The contributions from the Sunday
school, which have heretofore gone to
maintain the Sunday school, will here
after go toward some benevolent OBJ
ject outside the Sunday school, The
expenses Of maintaining the Sunday
school will be provided from fund
furnished by Rev. Mr. Luokey.
A committee has been appointed and
a schedule for the coming year Of these
benevolent objects will be drawn, and
each month the objects for which the
contributions will be given will be an
nounced to the scholars, and they will
be urged to increase the contributions
for such cause as the schedule pro-
vides. It will be readily seen that the
working force Of the church and Sum-
day school will be doubled, and yet the
expense will not be increased, and they
will be better fitted for the work that
is before them The generous offer of
Rev. Mr.. Luckey was a great surprise
and gratefully accepted by the congre-
cation.
Mr.. Armstrong spoke in behalf of
Missions" at the Humphrey street
church a short time ago
