forty-four cabin passengers, four be-

General William Booth and Com

Nothing transpired calculated to lead
to any amalgamation Of the two move

far as possible, come to an end
Hundreds of people who attended the

LONDON, Jan. 16-Right Hon.
Charles Pelham Villiers, member Uf
Parliament from South Wolverhamp-
ton, and known as the Father of the
House of Commons" having sat con-
tinuously in the House since 1888, died
at 9 o'clock tonight.
Charles Pelham Vielliers was the third
son of Hon. George Villiers. The Lon
don papers on January 4th said that on
the previous day Mr.. Villiers celebrated
his 96th birthday, and received con-
gratulatory messages from all parts Of
the kingdom.
In addition to being the Oldest men,
father of the English bar" being adj
mitted at Lincoln Inn in 1927.
Mr.. Gladstone, seven years the junior
of Mr.. VillierS, entered Parliament TWO
years before him, but while the services
of Mr.. Villiers at Westminster had been
continuous, that of the great Liberal
statesman was broken when he retired
from the House of Commons. Mr.. Vii
liers was returned for Northampton
three years after the passage of The
great Reform Act and the last Parlia-
ment of George ". Besides being the
oldest member of Parliament, he was
the Oldest surviving parliamentarian
candidate.
1t was in 1896, when George ". was
King and Victoria was a young child
that he travelled down into Yorkshire
from London and contested Kingston
upon Hull. under the reform banner of
Canning, though unsuccessfully.
In 1853 he was appointed Judge Advo-
cate-General.
In 1879 his admiring constituents at
Wolverhampton unveiled marble stat
ue of Mrs. ViHiers, when speeches in
eulogy of his public services in connec-
ton with the anti-corn law movement
We're delivered by Earl Granville and Sir
Robert Peel.
Notwithstanding his extremely adj
vanced age, his memory was singularly
retentive and he was able to entertain
his friends for hours al a time with iive-
ly and charming narratives of scenes
in the House of Commons during the
first half of the century. Canning had
passed away eight years before Mr..
Villiers entered Parliament. but the two
often met. He often went to the House
to hear Canning speak. and he invaria-
bly, described him as a wonderful ora
tor.
Among the famous personalities he
could recall and wildly portray the
great Sir Robert Peel, Lord Melbourne,
Lord John Russell, Lord Derby. Lord
Aberdeen, Lord Brougham, the Duke
of Wellington, Daniel O'Connell, Hume,
Grote and of course DIsraeli. He al
ways delighted to recall the circum-
stances in the House when D'Israel.
who was then quite a young man, made
the celebrated speech in which he said
that one day the House would be COM
PEELED to listen to him. Among inter-
esting events which he witnessed was
the attack by the mob on the house Of
the Duke of Wellington, and he clearly
recalled the excitment over the Duke s
duel in a London suburb with Lord
Winchelsea, which arose out of his
lordship calling the Waterloo hero a
traitor in connection with Roman Cath
Ollie emancipation.
