RoADHoUsE-At the residence of his
son George at Wexford, on Tune d 1898.
William Roadhouse, aged 70 wears
and 4 months.
Only few weeks ago we cllronicled
the death and burial of Mrs. Roadhouse.
and now her life companion has follow
ed her to be reunited forever. MIR. Road
house was born in Yorkshire, England,
and emgrated to Canada when eleven
years of age. He settled in Wellington
county, and farmed there for many years.
He was one of the old settlers of this
county, coming here in 1878, and took a
farm near Wexford. About ten years
ago he retired from the farm and went
to Illinois to reside near two sons there.
The climate however did not agree with
him and four years ago he came to
Grand Forks. The death of his daugh-
ter there last winter caused his removal
here, where he and his wife made their
home for short time until death called
them both to the home above. Mr..
Roadhouse was man of character and
prominence. While taking an active
part as citizen, yet he was man with
out an enemy. He was greatly loved
and respected by his old neighbors. He
had been member of the Methodist
church since his youth, and for twenty
one years was the Superintendent of one
Sunday school in Canada. His remains
were brought here for burial, and the
services fixed for Sunday, but owing to
the inclemency of the weather it was
postponed until the next day. The fun
eral services were held at the NJ. F.
Church, Rev. L. d. Wardwell officiating
and the body placed in the family plot in
the city cemetery here. OF his life we
may say, lit is finished" His work was
done and we'll done.

supposed that the intruders had all
been drowned, but after the storm had
passed away they began again with re-

The captain who commands the ves-

that the cargo must have come from the
vicinity of ant hills for which Jamaica
is noted. He stated that the ants were

INDIAN PRINCESS IN CANADA,
The Accomplished Daughter of
Noted Huron Chicf.


The recent election of Philippe Vim
cent, or, as the tribesmen call him. Tar
ron Wartesche," to the chieftainship of
the Huron tribe at the Indian Lorette,
near Quebec, has brought into promi-
nence his pretty 11-year-old daughter,
Eugene, who is now recognized as the
princess of the tribe. Princess Eugene
is refined and well-educated miss. who
converses freely in pure French and
English, having had the advantage of
eight years thorough instruction in
the convent of Charlesbourg, near Que
bee. She is bright and vivacious, and
possesses a good, well trained soprano
voice, which she uses with charming ef-
feet, while she skillfully plays her own
accompaniments on either the organ or
piano. Her father is a full-Dlooded
Huron and her mother French Cana
dian. Chief Philippe, the father of
Princess Eugene, is one of the pilots
who takes the steamers through the
Long Sioux and Lachine rapids on the
ST. Lawrence, the gift" as they call ii,
of plotting the rapids being hereditary.
Inc chlei possesses nuInDtf OF ntli-
looms, which the princess highly
prizes, among them being medals pre-
sented to her grandfather and great
grandfather by George ", Edmund
kean, Queen Victoria, the prince of
Wales and other notables. For visitors
whom she fancies the princess will oc-
casionally don her fathers famous
"chief's jacket" a couple of hundred
years old, and his crown of feathers.
and when her pretty face roguishly
peeps out from beneath the erea,
crown she forms a charming picture.
