sne ffOErnn
 The Tenth ward proposes to celebrate the addition of a new chemical engine in fine style. Preparations for a big il- lumination are being made, and that part of the city will be brilliantly light ed up on Friday evening. The celebra- tion is to begin at 7:30.
 The illuminations will be electrical, and will be in charge of MT. Lewis of the Electric Light company and Messrs. Underwood and Foote of the Connecticut Electrical company. These men are arranging to show some spe- ciaI designs in the Edgewood park Several of the houses in the vicinity will also be decorated and lighted up with electrical designs. A band concert will be given at the same time. After this part of the exercises the people will return to the engine house, where the band will play several selections. In addition there will be special exer- cises of singing and speeches, and the new chemical engine will be open to inspection.
 Finally every one is expected to go to oul SehI pls NdCdHl lot, where DIE bonfire will be set going. In addition to this a temporary frame house or cottage of rough boards will be erected and set on fire. This is for the purpose of testing the new chemical engine.

DEATH OF DIR. GLADSTONE

William Ewart Gladstone, the distin-
guished English statesman. whose death
occurred yesterday morning at his home,
Hawarden Castle, Wales, was born in
Liverpool December 90 1909. His father,
Sir John Gladstone, was wealthy mer-
chant. who removed to Liverpool from
Glasgow, Scotland, in 1875, and made Il
The son was educated at Elton and Oxford,
graduating from the latter institution with
the highest honors in 1881. In the follow
ing year he entered Parliament as the
nominee of the Duke of Newcastle bcin G
at this time and for many years afterward
a tory of an extreme type. His career as
an holder began in 1884, when Sir
Robert Peel made him junior lord of the
treasury. He afterward held various like
minor offices, gaining distinction by his
part in the revision of the tariff in 1912.
About this time he expressed in his book
on tie relations of church and state eX-
IRENE Ugh Church views, which were Sc
vereIv>criticised by Macaulay in his famous
essay In 1913 be attained the position
of member Of the cabinet in the Peel min
istry. -Four years later he was chosen to
represent the University of Oxford. Be-
ing rejected by the university in 1865, he
became liberal and sought reelection
in Lancashire. In recent years, when he
represented Scotch constituency, he be-
came a radical, going in for abolition of
the House of Lords and other measures of
Il democratic character. In the period
reputation in the office of chancellor of the
exchequer, both by his eloquence and by
his skill in budget statements, exhibiting
much knowledge and practical judgment in
matters of finance. He served in this office
under Lords Aberdeen and Palmerston,
and in 1865, at the death of the latter he
became leader of the House OF Commons
The above is a sketch of the early life
of one who deservedly won the popular
designation Of Grand Old Man"
From 1869, when for the first time he
became prime minister, until his retire
ment from public life in 1895 Mr.. Glad
stone welded immense influence in Eng
land, and his name is closely linked with
many great national enterprises.
He was not only a statesman, but a ripe
scholar and public bencfactor. In the
death of the great Englishman the world
suffers.

PUBLIC ENTERPRISE.

That there has been healthy growth of
public enterprise in this community lately
is evidenced in many ways. The building
of the new railroad has probably served
to stimulate the spirit, and when the work
shall have been completed and good
train service is given our town, there is
reason to suppose that there will be con-
siderable growth and development here
The crowds in attendance at the Agricul-
tural Fairs during the past five years have
witnessed the natural beauties of the sur
rounding country, its fertility and its
adaptability for the culture of a great va
riety of products. Our region has in this
and other ways been gradually attracting
attention, and when by increased rail- Dad
facilities we shall be brought within
twenty minutes ride of the National Capt.
tai, it will be an easy matter to develop
the town. But to do this there must be
more public enterprise manifested. Our
citizens should take pride in their home,
advertise its attractions and induce people
to settle here.

It is now announced that the President

1t is now announced that the President
in view of the number CT troops required
to seize and secure foreign territory, is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of calling out
forty thousand more troops. When 4
thing has to be DONE it should be done at
once, in order to save time, trouble and
expense. Spain has sent two hundred
thousand soldiers to Cuba alone, and that,
too, not to conquer, but merely to preserve
order in that island The Alexandria
Gazette says: IF the United States are to
conquer and hold, not only Cuba, but the
Philippine Islands, Porto Rico, and to an
mex Hawaii, instead of forty, Mr. Mckin-
ley should call for quarter million more
men, and on the score of economy and
humanity, do SO Immediately"
