The death of Mr.. E. B. Wight, whose
signature, "Webb," for so many
years has adorned the Washington
correspondence of the Boston Journal,
removes one of the best equipped
Journalists in America. A thorough
scholar, possessing remarkable ac-
quaintance with public men and
events, adding to his knowledge both
zeal and moderation, and having a
clear and beautiful style, Mr.. Wight
set for himself standard of excel
lehce from which he never departed,
and which gave to the Washington
columns of the Journal character and
a Prestige which were of great value
to the paper. Mr.. Wight, though in
close contact with men and affairs,
occupied a position particularly his
own as Washington correspondent,
and the Journal will find it hard to fill
his place satisfactorily to the thou
sands of Journal readers whom
"Webb'' has made his friends.-Stdtes-

The Irbit Fair.

The Irbit fair, which is held at Irbit,
in the province of Perm, between the
1st of February and the 1st Of March, is
not on the great trading route between
Russia and Siberia, and yet it is at Irbit
that Siberia is supplied with manufac-
tured goods for the year, and to which
Siberia sends large portion of her furs,
skins, fish, honey, wax, hempseed, lin
seed and even butter. Here, too, is
great market for Chinese tea and
silk and for many products of CEN
trail Asia. Most of the goods left unsold
from the Mini Novgorod fair are sent
on to Irbit, and Siberian goods left I'M
sold from the Irbit fair, are, in turn,
sent on to Mini Novgorod. For Russian
goods the traders enjoy some special
privileges for carriage from fair to fair.
The Irbit fair dates from 1913, but up
to the beginning of the present century
had not exceeded turn over of 2, 0oO,-
900 rub1es per annum. In 1868, how
ever, it had grown to $4,000, 900, and
in 1887 it reached 1000, 600, which
was the high water mark. By 1892 the
turn over had declined to 34,000,0 900
rubles, and this fair is expected to suffer
a good deal from the Transsiberian
railway, now in course of construction,
which will take Siberian grain and furs
and other products direct on to the Rus
sian railway system. Irbit itself is but
small place of 5000 inhabitants, but
during the fair the population rises to
100000, and many of the houses are
open only while the fair lasts-Cham-

There are Is savings banks and
about the same number of trust COM
panies in the state, representing over
81, 900 depositors, over S0,0 600 of whom
are residents of the state and the
"a cunt of whose deposit is more than
$25, 100000, while non residents have
deposits to the amount of about So,
coo, 600, the average amount of depos-
it's to each depositor being S311. There
was an increase of nearly 5000 depos-
itors in these institutions during the
past year and an increase in deposits
of about 50, 900, 900. This showing in d
state where farming rather than in
dustrial pursuits largely predomin-
ates, and in the face of year of un-
usual depression, is significant and
can readily be explained on the
grounds that the money is coming
back from the West, where it has
been the cause of no little apprehen-
sion by reason of depressed dividends,
and possibly from New Hampshire,
where the banks have had some Bit
ter experience in the western home
investment.

DAUGHTER RESPONSIBLE.

Harriet Cooper Caused the Death Of Her
Mother and Herself.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. lathe death
by asphyxiation of Mrs. Sarah B.
Cooper and her daughter Harriet has
produced a profound sensation in this
city. No woman in San Francisco or
on the entire Pacific coast was so prom.
inent as Mrs. Cooper, who had devoted
her life to religious and philanthropic
work and was actively connected with
every reform movement. She was a
cousin of Colonel Robert Ingersoll,
with whom, despite their opposite re.
igious views, she maintained a warm
friendship.
There is no doubt but that Miss
Cooper was responsible for the deaths
Of herself and mother. The family
physician states that Miss Cooper had
been suffering for months from melan-
cholia with homocidal and suicidal ten
denotes. Her father committed suicide
10 years ago and two cousins, nephews
Of her father, also killed themselves.
Harriet Cooper had made several prevl-
GUS attempts to end her life, once at
tempting to jump from ferry boat,
and several times announced to her
mother that she longed to turn on the
gas at night SO that she and her mother
Could Pass Away Together.
Mrs. Cooper concealed her daughters
condition from all except a few inti-
mate friends and had arranged to take
her daughter East soon to place her in
the care of relatives, hoping the change
might restore her health.
