WHOLE EARTH THROBs WITH GRIEF
Wave of Sorrow That EnGircles the Globe
Very Impressive Feature.

Chicago, Sept. 20.-The throb Of
grief that was dominant at Canton

people of the whole world. From north

Of women sobbing and of the roll OF
the muffied drum and the tread of men
to the music of the drge. Probably
never In history was there such a
universal expression of grief for one
man as that of yesterday for William
Mckinley.
Probably the most impressive of the
many features of the days services
was that of multitudes stopping their
work or wal Or whatever they were

fifty-eight illustrious years of the dea,
presidents life. At this hour all bus

remaining motionless for that time,

This occurred In mills. shops and

Philadelphia Times.
There are no two young men in this
country who will take g. gamblers
chance more readily than Charley or
VIII Clark, millionaire sons Of Senator
Clark, OF Montana. Each has an In
come close to $1,000 a day, and when the
inclination seizes them they bet a
months income with as little compunc-
ton as the ordinary racegoer risks $40 or
$40. Charles Clark tackled the racing
game at Oakland and Tanforan for about
three weeks and frequently bet $1,000 on
a race.
During the recent political campaign IN
Montana thousands were won and lost.
There has been no such high gambling
known in this country for years, and the
far-famed Monte Carlo was easily
eclipsed by Butte, Mont. At recent
game Mrs. w. Thompson, the pretty wife
of Col. Thompson, Of the Boston Lyric
company, acted as mascot for young
VIII Clark at the club rooms of "Swede
Sam in the Butte hotel. There had
been some big games for several days.
On this particular night luck was all
against VIII Clark. He lost $4,000 at
roulette; then he insisted that Col
Thompson, who was incidentally manag-
ing the campaign for Senator Clark
should send for his wife AS the young
millionaire had the gambling rooms re-
served for his own party, Mrs Thomp-
son consented to act as mascot. Luck
came Clark's way and in less than half
an hour he had won every dollar back
Clark was so elated that he organized
party OF fourteen or sixteen for a
champagne supper at a swell cafe on
Granite street. The order called for
everything Of the best to be obtained in
town. The special brand Of wine sup
piled the guests cost $11 a bottle, and
the supper, which began. after midnight,
cost $1,000 An adjournment was made
at $50 o'clock in the morning to the
roulette table in the cafe. Clark won
$500 before he retired for a little sleep,
but he insisted that Mrs. Thompson
should try her luck. She also proved a
winner to the extent Of $1,000
In the earlier part Of the evening F..
August Heinze and Charles Clark played

ANOTHER GOOD THING FOR
WORCESTER INVESTORS

The proposed consolidation of the
National Hide and Leather Bank and
the State National Bank of Boston is
another big financial transaction that
means a great deal to Worcester in
vestors, especially the Worcester saw
ings banks which are large holders of
the National Hide and Leather Bank
stock. The stock has been purchased
in almost every case at par, or close
to it, and in the proposed liquidation
they are offered a big bonus, which
most of them will accept.
The offer made to the stockholders
is as follows: For each two shares
of their stock, $40 in cash and one
share of the new stock of the State
National Bank, book value $3.50. Should
any of the stockholders prefer to part
with all his stock for cash, $135 will
be paid for each share on delivery of
the certificates, duly endorsed in blank
for transfer and stamped, at the office
of Curtis & Sanger, Exchange Building,
SO State Street, Boston, up to Dec. 15i
1901"
The men interested in the Worcester
savings banks think the offer most ad-
vantageous, especially in view of the
fact that the National Hide & Leather
Bank stock has always been a good
dividend payer.
Charles A. Chase of the Worcester
County Institution for Savings is one
of a committee of three to look after
the interests of the savings banks in
the liquidation and consolidation.

MILITIAMEN WILL
PETITION FOR BATHS

! Monday night the City Council will
receive the following petition, signed
/ by the commanding officers of every
militia command at the Armory:-
ITO the Honorable City Government
! of Worcester-We, the undersigned
| commanding officers Of the volunteer
state militia companies quartered at
I the Worcester Armory, respectfully pc
/ tition the city to provide baths in the
| Armory for use Of officers and men of
| said companies"
| The petition has not been signed by
all commanding officers, but will be
complete by Monday night and ready
| for presentation. The movement to
secure suitable bath accommodations
at the Armory had been discussed pro
and con since the completion Of the
! home of the local militiamen. Capt.
! Edwin G. Barrett has taken the mi
tiative and drew up the petition yes
terday. The necessity of bathing ac-
commodations is not doubted, and the
sooner baths are put in the sooner a
long felt want will be remedied. The
idea is to have a series Of shower
baths, and as there is ample room at
the Armory there is little doubt but
the petition will have its desired ef-
feet
Capt. Barrett is not certain just
what method to pursue to accomplish
the undertaking but feels that with the
approval of the local city government
the state will willingly put in the
baths
The city Guards under command Of
Capt. Barrett put in two solid hours
at drill last night. After regular routine
Grill the men were questioned in the
school of a soldier by the officers and
non-conmissioned officers. The com
pany was formed in a column of fours
and showed a good knowledge Of
points essential to the makeup of a
good soldier.
At the meeting after the drill reports
We're heard from the athletic commit
tee relative to the formation of a
candlepin league among the Worces-
ter militia companies. A meeting of
delegations from all companies inter-
ested will be held at the Armory next
week. Orders from Col. z. p. Clark
were read notifying the company Of
the regimental inspection which is to
take place Jan. 16 MAJ Harry 3.

missiOned officers received orders to

with and familiarize themselves with
all residences and working places of
men in their division. One application
TO enlist was received and acted on
favorably. Beginning Thursday night
the company will commence drill for
the annual production Of the Drum
mer Boy at the Worcester Theatre
during the week of Jan. 6. Pay for the
regimental rifle competition was re-
ceived.
