Philip D. Armour Dead.

Chic lgo, Jan. G.-Philip d. Armour
died at his residence in Prairie ave
nue. in this city at $40 O'Clock this
evening. The end came after two
years Of illness, during which time
Mr.. Armour visited German baths,
passed the cold months in southern
California and devoted himself large
| ly to an attempt to restore his
health, which, however, had been
broken never to be regained.
For several weeks the dead million
aire has been living at the old family
home in Prairie avenue, the usual
trip to southern California not hav-
ing been taken this winter. He came
down to his office in the Home Insur-
ance building but seldom, and as the
cold increased he did not come at
all. 1t was understood in the office
that he had an incipient attack of
pneumonia, but it was given out no
later than u week ago that he was on
the ROAD 10 recovery
SKETCH OF MR. ARMOUR.
Philip ID. Armour, who was in his
sixty-ninth year. made his own life !
on lines unique and wholly original
with himself. The ancestral ArmOurs
were Connecticut people, but Philip |
was not born until after the |
family had moved to Stockbridge,
Oneida county, New York. His birth
date was May Is, 1882.
The California Gold fever struck
Western New York in 1910, and
Young Armour was the first in Stock
bridge to determine to visit the Pa
,ific Coast. He made money from
he start, and at the end of six years
ne returned home with a fortune
Becoming dissatisfied with the quiet {
lie of his native town he came wes t |
lgain, and, together with brother {
n-law, established a large wholesale
grocery house in Milwaukee, In
S66 he came to Chicago to take t
barge OF the Chicago branch of 4
lew York packing esta blishment. v
he result was that the Chicago t
Ouse ceased to be a branch, and the r
est gained the largest packing and h
revision plant in the world. T
In works of charity, Mr. Armour's
Monument will be found in the Ar
lour Institute. to which but a short
me ago he gave S7J0,O6p in one
'mem srance. The investment on l.
le part Of Mr. Armour and his VI
rother Joseph, of $3.50, 900, and l.
yearly expense for maintenance of .
100000. IL

MIR. ArmOur's wealth is a subject u
lat may never be accurately known. q
Is estimated to be not less than m
10000, 900, and by some is said to
coed $50, 100000. The combined al
ealth of the Chicago Armours is -
led at $60.00O,OOO In one sense, =

A GOOD THING.

The people of Honolulu may be
depended upon to appreciate good
thing when they see it.
This is evidenced by the interest
manifested in the superb /" Birds
Lye View Of Honolulu I" lately made
and published by KING BROS.
With a view to making larger and
better photos of Hawaiian subjects,
this enterprising firm has been ex.
perimenting along new lines for the
past year with most gratifying re-
suits.
A feature of these productions is
the beautiful cloud effects, which, it
will be noticed, do not rob the land
scape of any of its values. This
was one of the hardest problems of
all to solve, as anyone versed in
photography will appreciate
Owing to the unusual size of these
pictures (7X3o) no paper on which
to print it can be procured short of
the factory, which fact causes the
delay in filling orders. II is hoped,
however, that the steamer of the
goth inst. will bring fresh supply.

A(Ap|ETRO GARCIA
FOUGHT With AGUINALDO
AGAINST The SPANIARDS
Is Now on the KintuCk on His
Way Home After Two Years
in the American
Schools.

Agapietro Garcia, a Filipino, IS years
Of age. is one Of the passengers on the
Kintuck. bound for Manila. While o
mere strip Of boy, Garcia is wide
awake and thoroughly gconversant
with the problems that confront his
country. He was a soldier at thirteen,
fighting under Aguinaldo against the
Spaniards, and Is well acquainted with
the characteristics OF that artful dodg-
err.
When the Spaniards surrendered the
archipelago to the forces of the United
States, young Garcia with hundreds
OF others Of his countrymen. hailed the
event with Joy. as marking the end of
dissensions in the islands and giving
opportunity for ambitious Filipinos to
enter into business and Industrial pur-
suits. When It was found that the
cunning Aguinaldo had led his soldiers
against the Americans, Garcia pro-
nounced himself an amigo and went at
once into the employment Of the Unit
ed States quartermaster's department.
II was while at his duties in this
ONCE that Lieut.. w. L. Lemon OF the
First Washington Regiment, met him.
Struck with the brightness and homes
ty Of the now thoroughly Americanized
amigo, Lieut.. Lemon asked him to go
with the regiment TO the United
States as his brother and live with
him at his home in Central Washing
ton.
Agajietro Garcia threw down his pen
and said: 81 will From that mo-
ment he vas Pete" Lemon, the mascot
OF the regiment. He accompanied the
regiment home and. after It disbanded
in Seattle. went with Lieut.. Lemon ia
his home at North Yakima.
At that place, he entered school at
once, knowing scarcely word Of En-
glish. He made rapid progress in his
studies and was soon able to write priz,
taking compositions in English. HI
became favorite and was an example
of politeness and decorum wherever h,
might be.
Having mastered English sufficiently
to talk 1t fiuently, and having the Span
ish and various Filipino dialects
Pete" began to think Of the oppor'
tunities for him in his old home. HI
had also felt the pinch Of a northern
winter and longed for the scent of the
tropics. He also had to confess Q
growing inconsistencies, a desire to sex
his father and tell old friends Of the
wonderful country that sent such mer
as Dewey and Lawton.
Therefore, he is returning for a pc
Rod Of three years, after which he ex'
poets to go to the States again and
complete his education. He hopes to be
Of great service to his adopted country
when he reaches the Philippines, by
! telling his friends OF the good qualities
Of the American people and the gov
eminent Of the United States. He ma,
prepare lecture on tine Americans
and deliver It through the country II
the native tongue. While In Hawaii
he will visit the Legislature, ito b.
able" he says, ito tell his people how
the Hawaiians under the American
flag make their own laws"
! Garcia bears the best Of letters t
Dean Worcester Of the Philippine
Commission and hopes to be OF use t
the Americans who are working In thu
Orient to solve the Philippine problem
