Miss Julia Connolly, kIilalee's aftanced
is almost prostrated with grief over his
sudden and tragic death. She passed a
sleepless night, and yesterday her tear
stained face and nervous condition bore
evidence to the mental anguish she had
suffered. She refused to credit the news
life forever, and even when the infornla-
ton gathred by The Republic correspond
ent in Sedalia was read to her by SYM
dreadful words of their sting by indulging
the hope that. in the absence of fuller par
ticulars, there was a possibility that the
wires had erred, and that the man she
loved so dearly was still alive
When seen yesterday by a Republic re-
porter Miss Connolly was still fearful. and
greatly agitated. but had apparently nerved
herself to bear the shock of the worst.
What distressed her most was the thought
that her sweetheart, who was a Catholic,
conveyed in the dispatches that he had
been drinking heavily was an added pang,

ROSE REELECTED.

Mayor Rose Of Milwaukee was re-
turned to Office in last Tuesdays election
over Henry J. .Baumgaertner, republic
an. 1t is hard to say whether Milwau-
kee is to be congratulated or not. Rose
is aggressive and er terprising, and has
been good advertiser Of his city s ad-
vantages. During his term there has
been slight reduction Of taxes, princip-
ally due to the smaller demands made
by the state on the city. There was
some apparent reduction in the water
rates of private consumers, but at the
expense of the public buildings. There
was partial reduction of street car
fares, but a large number of citizens
thought the city had made very bad
bargain with the street railway COM
pany and the fight on Rose WIS made
principally on that issue. Party lines
were generally broken over during the
campaign. The only English paper sup
porting Rose was the Journal DEM
The News Dem, the Catholic Citizen
Dem }, the Sentinel rep. and the Even
ing Wisconsin (Rep.) supported Baum
gaertner, while the German papers were
divided. The populists, who helped elect
Rose two years ago, turned against him
this spring, but enough disaffectei re-
publicans scratched their ballots to more
than offset the populist vote. The cause
of the republican dissatisfaction with
their nominee was probably the fact
that he bolted his party ticket two years
ago after failing to get the nomination.
Roses campaign methods were objec-
tionable but apparently effective. He
boosted of his "wide-open town" and
promised that if reelected he would
make things easy for prize-fghters,
sports and gamblers. He distributed gifts
of money :mong the Polish churches and
thereby enlisted in his support the Pol
ish priests, who have great political in
fiuence with their congregations. He
and his lieutenants worked every posi-
BILE lead that promised votes, and their
industry and vigor, if not their ideas of
management, brought them
victory.
Rose cannot FIJI the Office of mayor of
with much dignity, nor with
ability; but it may be that |
his mere forwardness will be of some |
value to the city Milwaukee wants to
attract attention, and its mayor is good

of its best men. He was nearly eighty
four years old, but retained his grasp OF
business andhisinterest in affairs almost
to the last. Though his activity in poll

five wears, made him the target for
frequent criticism by political opponents
there is not one who can say Il word
against his rugged honesty, strong bust
ness sense or excellent private character.
His public services in the house of rep
resentatives and in the senate were of
solid value, though he was never an or

situations in the state and elsewherethat
have been the recipients of his personal

but always systematic. The good he
has done is not of the transitory kind,
| though few know its extent, for he be
