to the coast, made the trip from Zan-
zibar to England with Mr.. Laing, and
was present at his beloved masters
funeral.
Mr.. Laing was a personal friend Of
Tom Livingstone, son of the great
missionary. Tom was in 1874 employed
in Alexandria, Egypt, with the firm Of
Carver e Co. cotton brokers. While
! on his way back to Zanzibar, Mr..
Laing stopped off to see his friend. but
was shocked to learn of his death,
which had occurred the day before he
arrived. Mr.. Laing was invited to at
tend the funeral and did so. Thus he
saw the father and son both buried
within the space OF six months.
"On questioning the attendants of
DIR. Livingstone as to their motive in
bringing the dead body to the coast,
L gathered that although they had u
certain affection for the doctor, their
motives were purely human, and de-
cidedly financial" observed Mr.. Laing
The news Of Livingstone's death two
years before had been promulgate
by the attendants. who were natives
o. Joanna, one of the Comoro Islands.
Some of them brought news of the
1eath. and the British consul paid
them their wages. Wainwright and
The others subsequently brought the
body down, as proof of his death, thai
they might get wages also.
Had il not been for these circum-
stances, Mr.. Laing says, Livingstone's
body would never have reached Zan-
zibar. and his death would have re-
naiued a matter of uncertainty for
many months.
Mr. Laing said that there was no
)dor attaching to the body. other than
hat of dried leaves. The body had
been dried in the sun, and the heart
md intestines were removed and plac-
I'd in an oil can.
Mr.. Laing is a modest and somewhat
-eticent gentleman, and is a great ad-
nirer of Henry NJ. Stanley. To Liv-
ngstone, he says, was due the opening
Ip of that great African country. To
stanley was due the development OF
-ivingstone'S work.
Mr. Laing, who has brother living
n Victoria, has been for the past three
ears in the Klondike country. His
original intention was to winter in Ho-
lolulu, but since arriving he has de-
.ided to go into business with ]. NJ.

Whereas then there was a resolution
that proxies be restricted to the mem
bers of the Central Committee. there
is seeming majority for the proposal
that any member of the convention
which nominated Parker for delegate
last year and constituted the commit
tee should be permitted to hold
proxy.
Should this have majority of the
votes the same rule will be made to
apply to the executive committee as
well and there will be then a widening
of the influence of that body, and it

viii mean that there is to be broader
spirit in the future government OF the
party and that active work along lines
which are approved by the most pro-
gressive, will be inaugurated at once.
The most important matter which
will come before the meeting perhaps
will be that of q secretary for the COM
mittee. The resignation of Secretary
Hendry has beer. followed by an active
canvass OF the committee by Assistant
he has endorsements which are suffi-
cient to land him in the place, should
there be chosen a non-member. There
is a sentiment in the committee, how
ever, that the secretary should be a
member of that body, elected by his
district. It is thought this would give
to the member a standing which does
not attach to the simple secretary OF
the committee, without any elective
membership. Before he went to the
coast Chairman Kennedy suggested
that this course be followed. and made
Il canvass of the membership with the
hope OF finding some one who would
undertake the work Of keeping up the
records and attending to the actual
workings Of the committee Col. ]. II.
Fisher has been approached, but his
business precludes his taking on the
extra work. 3. Il. Wright of the De
rartmeat of Public Works has been
mentioned and there may be others as
well. Many members declare their at
tachment 20 the principle, but insist
that there are not enough men in the
committee who could undertake the la
Dor, and that in consequence the place
may have to so TO an outsider.

of his election IS another matter,
though. as there are Republicans who
say they can defeat any candidate that
may be put up IN the district.
on the Republican side there IS a re-
Iuctauce 10 discuss the matter. as the
q neral grief over the death Of Mr.. Gil

that there Will be a hot campaign.
