MAST DIES IN ECUADOR.
Great Cartoonst Victim of Yellow
Fever.

Guayquil, Ecuador, Dec. 9.-Thomas
Mast, the cartoonist consul general OF
the United States, died here Sunday
after a three days illness from yellow
fever. He was buried in the after
noon after brief services, attended by
practically every one Of the American
colony and by the foreign consuls.
MI. Mast was 81 years of age, having
been born at Landau, Bavaria, Sept.
q. 1910. He was practically thorough
American, however, since he came to
this coutry with his parents in 1916.
He was educated in the public schools
and early showed his natural talent
for clever work with the pencil. He
soon decided to adopt the artists call
ing for his own and succeeded in hav-
ing some of his work printed in the
MAGAZINES of lesser importance. He
went west and before he was 25 years
old had achieved name for himself
with his humorous sketches.
He then went abroad and did work

was with Garibaldi in Italy. Mast,
/ with an interesting reputation, came

COLD is DISTRESSING
SCARCITY OF ANTHRACITE is
CAUSING MUCH WORRY.
COAL MERCHANTS RESIGNED
Poor People Not the Only Sufferers
Wel-to-do Citizens Cannot Get Fuel
at Any Price-Some Milwaukee
Companies Close Offices for a
Time, Dealing Stuff sparingIy.

Milwaukee, Dec. 9.-The present
cold is causing considerable distress
in Milwaukee. Poor people are not
The only sufferers. The scarcity Of
hard coal is the chief factor to con-
tend with. All day long coal mer-
chants throughout the city have been
besieged by well-to-do pople who have
money to purchase fuel and other
supplies, but who are absolutely I'M
able to purchase hard coal at any
price.
Every applicant received the state
ment that there was no coal to be had
and that the visible supply in the
bins was destined for the people who
had ordered coal last spring and who
can get it only in small lots. One
large coal company has closed it's Of
fee for one week, and others are deal
ing out their visible anthracite in
quantities as small as possible to their
old customers that each may have a
little. They say, however, that there
is not one twentieth Of the necessary
coal in the city. Thermometers
throughout the state range from 10
above to 5 degrees below zero.

BACK FROM
PORTO RICO
BIRD AND BASHFORD
NEARING HOME.
RECEIVED BY COMMITTEE
Went to Island to Defend Formers
Son in Suits for LibeI-Editor
Again Arrested on Day of Their
Acknowledgement at Wharf by
Special Commission.
Madison, Dec. 9.

MdQ1SOn, Dec. j.
Col. George w. Bird and R. M. Bash
ford. wno went to San Juan, Porto
Rico, recently, for the purpose of de-
tending Col Birds son, Hobart S., ed
itor of the San Juan News, in several
actions and suits pending in the fed
eral and supreme courts, are expected
home tomorrow. They have been
absent from the city three weeks.
When they arrived at San Juan
there was a considerable number of
the friends of the strenuous editor at
the wharf to greet the visitors. Prom
inent federals went to the landing to
welcome them to the island.
At the hotel there was an informal
greeting and exchange of courtesies.
Here Senior Manuel Camunas acted as
spokesman and announced that there
were two commissions present ap-
pointed by the executive committee of
the federal party and the local COM
mittee respectively to extend the par
tvs welcome and encouragement.
The directory was represented by
the following committee: Santiago r.
Palmer, president Of the federal par
ty, Manuel Camunas and Eduardo
Acuna.
The local committee consisted of
the following members: Jose Ramos
Anaya, Pedro Elzaburo, Jose Elzabu-
70, Mr.. Blandino and Mr.. Escudero.
1t CHANGED that on the very day of
their arrival Mr. Bird was again ar
rested on a charge Of libel preferred
by one Gerardino of Ponce, for the
publication of the fact that he and
charge connected with the attempt to
assassinate the correspondent of the
News in Ponce.
The complaint was made in Ponce
and sent to the justice of the cathe-
dral court in San Juan with instruc-
lions to arraign the editor according
ly. After hearing that the warrant
was out for his arrest, Mr.. Bird went
to the court room at 11:30 o'clock in
the morning but found no one there,
and at 2 o'clock he was arrested and
arraigned He refused to plead and
was held for trial in the district court
and released after furnishing bond in
the amount Of $500.
The prosecution grows out Of the
rioting and lawlessness which existed
in Ponce during the election period
and which was reported to The San
Juan News by telegraph from a cor
respondent in Ponce.
There was an attempt to murder
the correspondent of the News, the
would-be assassins firing three shots
at him. Three men were held for
trial for connection with the crime
and the accuser of the News was one
of those so held.
