JUNGLE JOHN" DEAD.
Benjamin Fenner, One of the Most Fa-
miIiar Figures of the City, Gone.

Benjamin S. Fenner, Familiarity
known as Uncle John" one of the old
est true men of this city died sud
denly at his boarding house, Bige-
low court, about o'clock, yesterday
morning
Mr., Fenner has been in poor health
for several months past, but has been
able to attend to his duties until last
Friday when he was obliged to stable
his team and remain indoors. He has
been about the house, however, and
felt confident that his illness was not
of a lasting nature.
He arose at the Usual hour yesterday
morning, dressed and walked into the
kitchen of the house. HE conversed
pleasantly with his landlady and
laughed heartily at a remark made by
one of the inmates of the house. Sud
denly he was seen to grow pale, and,
staggering toward lounge in the
room, sank down upon it, unconscious.
An attempt was made to revive him,
but before medical aid could be sum-
moned he was dead.
Medical Examiner F. ii. Baker was
notified and gave the cause of death
as apopiexy. Mr.. Fenner was born in
North Scituate r. l.. and was II years
old. He has been resident of Wor-
cester about 50 years and formerly
Light, who conducted a machine shop
near the junction ct that time.
He afterwSrd took up the occupation
of driving a job wagon, and was one
of the most familiar figures in the city.
When the. Old South Church was re-
moved from the common IN 1887, he
purchased the structure, removed it to
Southgate street and made it into IA
room tenement house. Fhe building was
known as the Ark for a number of
years and was Quilted by fire some
months ago.
Mr. Fenner is survived by seven chill
dren, ]. H. and ]. c. Fenner Mrs Car
rie E. Chaffin and Mrs. Hattie Hart
well of this city Mrs. Fannie Pres
colt of Winchester, Mrs. Cora b. Wood,
Jr,, of Upton, and Mrs Flora B. Reed
of New Haven't, Conn.
The funeral will take place from the
residence of his son, j. II. Fenner, ITO
Southgate street, Sunday afternoon, at
? o'clock The burial will be in Hope
cemetery.

in the vicinity and furnish small gar

the best disposition to make of our

Should this be approved, the troops
at each station should be promptly fur

Springfield, Dec. 1.-THE reception
given by the colored citizens of SPRING
field to Company L. Sixth Massachu-
sets volunteers, was one of the most
extensive affairs of its kind in the his
tory of the city.
The volunteer veterans, under COM
mand of Capt William j. Williams, ar
rived at o'clock from Boston, and
were met at the station by a reception
committee of the most prominent coll
ored citizens, the Second Regiment
Band and about 100 members of the
local companies of the Second Regi-
ment, in uniform.
The guests were escorted to the Gill
more House, where a very elaborate
banquet was served. The reception, took
place in the city hall, and was followed
by dancing until a late hour The sol
ders We're welcomed to the city by ex-
Lieut. Coy. William II. Halle, who was
greeted with great applause at the
close of complimentary remarks In
place of Cor WOlcott, who was unable
to be present, Col Roger Morgan of the
governors staff spoke on behalf of the
chief executive. Col Morgan took as
his subject, THE negro as an American
citizen"
Col. Embury p Clark of the Second
regiment was given a tremendous ova-
ton by the visiting soldiers. Col. Clark
spoke on THE negro soldier at Ell
Caney," eulogizing the work done there
by the colored regulars. Among tine
other speakers was Hon. Edward D.
Walker of Boston. on The negro as a
soldier; Lieut. William Fl. Jackson, of
Worcester, in a humorous vein, on The

Incubus of 500.
The debt for the running expenses of
Emmanuel Congregational Church has

such as the breaking out of riots, but
was not best suited for soldiers field
life"
When members of the commission re-
ferred to superior intelligence of the
volunteers, coming from civil life
above that of regular soldiers, Gen.
Corbin said he considered the regular
the equal in intelligence to the Volun-
teers, owing to the rigid requirements
now made The character and intelli-
gence of the men who went into the
Santiago campaign was second to none
that ever saw service, he declared.
The general was asked if he had re-
ceiVed any complaints from the vol
unteers as to their treatment during
the recent war. He said he was yet
to hear a complaint from a volunteer
soldier. Such complaints as c@me were
from outside sources, knowing nothing
about the facts and conditions.
would it be proper, under military
usage, for a subordinate to submit a
complaint" asked Mr.. Hay.
Not only proper, but the very thing
he should do answered Gen. Corbin
Mr. Mahany remarked he had been
flooded with complaints One of them
came from a soldier who said: 4
have loved my country, but it is the
last country 1 will love"
Al another point Gen. COrbln said
no exact forecast could be made as to
the Philippines. Aguinaldo was reputed
to have an army of 10000 men, but
what that army would do, no one could
tell. IT was too large a field of con-
lecture to enter upon in this off-hand
way.
Owing to opportunities of congress-
men for the release of volunteers, the
Associated Press was requested to send
Gen. COrbin's statement on that point.
He said THE department is disposed
to deal very leniently as to letting off
men who are needed at home. In some
cases colonies have been instructed to
reduce companies to so men, so as to
let off men who were urgently needed
at home, And even below so we are
making discharges on satisfactory
that the presence of men is
needed at home"
