Rev DR.. John II. Barrows, president
of Oberlin college, died at his home

He had been sick for several weeks
with pneumonia, but the immediate
cause of death was heart failure, his
illness having taken a sudden turn for
the worse.
For several hours before his death
he was kept alive by injections of salt
solution.
DR.. Barrows was in the height OF his
usefulness and the prime OF his sue
cess. He had risen to high rank
among the educators of the day and
he had succeeded in raising more than
a million dollars for the university

with untirng zeal. He was known
everywhere as an eminent clergyman,

scholar, a philosopher, an author and
a convincing logiCian. 1t was on ac-
count of his powers of reasoning and

Cost of Olive Oil.

A puzzling question has been asked
frequently and does not appear to
have been answered convincingly. 1t
is this: why does olive oil cost SO
much in this country" California
has olive orchards which rival the
hest of those in Italy, Spain and
France. The demand in the United
States for choice olive oil Ia constant
and large. Why is 1t that the price
is still SO high?-New York Tribune.

steel trust has been conducted.
Those who are of his financial and
Industrial crowd--the Pennsylvania

A plan of action will be determined
upon this week. The Carnegie interest
will be represented by FIVE men. and
the shrewd Scotchman himself will no

blank before his friends so that they
may read them.
The open letter Of John Trehane

the methods of the committee are
characterized as Schemes, will be
considered, and when the fight comes
it will.be made an issue.
In the meantime George W. Perkins

all about the row that's a-brewing. He
knows his friends, and he knows those
who are unfriendly. Like Carnegie, he
is prepared to meet the issue when the
time comes.
