speaker began to read.
That is lie" cried Rev Mr.. Foss
burg.
There was great confusion.

Rev Dr.. Swenson. Objections were
made by many but the chair sustained
the motion and ordered the taking OF

the excitement of taking the ballot, DR.
SwensOn said there might be those
who would cast more than one ballot
The insinuation was vigorously resent
ed and the chair stated II was the
greatest libel ever cast on a member

announced the proposed amendment

side constantly for four days. noticed
a sudden change in his fathers condi-
ton. He hardly reached the patient 5
bedside, when his father died peace
fully, without warning and without
speaking a word.
Young Pingree wired his mother and
uncle in the United States not to come
to London. The body will be en-
balmed and taken to his home.
The diagnosis made by London spe-
cialists of the cancerous affection of
the intestines from which Pingree
suffered left practically no hope for
the patients recovery. Towards the
end of his illness he suffered great
pain and weakened rapidly. He was
unable to retain nourshment. His
mind, however, remained fairly clear.
During the whole of yesterday he was
practically kept alive by injections of
strychnine and drugs administered to
lessen the pain.
Hazen Senter Pingree was born IN
Denmark, Maine. in 1910. In 1862 he
enlisted in the list Massachusetts

the war when he located in Detroit,
embarking in the manufacturing of
shoes. In 1889 the republican party
nominated Pingree for mayor of De
troit. He was elected by over 1000
majority and reelected in 1891, 1898
and 1895 by increased majorities each
time. In 1896 Pingree was elected

ity, running ahead of the national tick
ct by $4,000 votes. He was reelected
governor in 1898, by about 100 600 plu-
rality and served out his term which
expired in 1900. Last March he start
ed on trip to south Africa which re-
suited in his death in London.
Gov. Pingree, while mayor, accom-,
plished many municipal reforms,
among others forcing the gas company
to lower rates so cents per 1000, estab-
fishing public lighting plant, organic
ing the Detroit railway on the three
cent fare basis, lowering telephone
rates and breaking a number of sewer
and paving rings that were thriving
when he came into Office His potato
patch scheme for the relief of the poor
of the city was extensively copied and
brought him much fame. While gov
ernor, Pingree devoted his enel gies
toward securing a law taxing railroads
and other corporate property on ad
valorem basis instead of specially on
earnings. His efforts resulted in the
passage of law along these lines by
the last legislature.
Pingree is survived by a widow a
son and daughter.

200 men and women. armed with axes,
revolvers and shotguns, yesterday to-
tally demolished Schmidts saloon, the
finest in the city. Some one fired half
a dozen shots from a shotgun through
the front door that started a general
onslaught with rocks and guns on the
windows and doors. Emma Denny re-
ceived a pistol ball in her face and was
slightly hurt. Although this was an
accident. it served TO enrage the mob
and the crusaders swarmed into the
saloon There they found Charles and
Henry Schmidt After driving them
from the building through the rear
door the mob created havoc right and
left. Rev Charles LOwthar prevented
Charles Schmidt from entering the
place by striking him with an AK. The
blow was a glancing one, and made
only a scalp wound. AS he fel TO tho
ground Henry Schmidt made a gun
play in defense of his brother that
nearly cost him his life. One of the
crusaders, following up tho preachers
attack, had raised an ak TO strike
Henry Schmidt, when a companion
wrested the weapon from his hands
The greatest excitement followed tin,
