ARCHBISHOP OF
 CANTERBURY DEAD
DEATH OF THE GREAT OLD MAN HAD BEEN EXPECTED FOR SOME TIME-FUNERAL WILL TAKE PLACE SATURDAY..

London, December 2s.-The Most Rev. Frederick Temple, archbishop of Cam terbury and primate of all England, who had been Ill for some time past, is dead. He passed away quite peacefully at Sa5 o'clock. in the presence of his wife and two sons. His death had been anticipat- ed for some days and only his remarkable vitality enabled him to counteract his ex- trenie weakness. The final collapse oc- cured about o'clock and he was uneon- scious towards the end.
 The pathetic scene in Westminster ab- bey at the coronation of King Edward was one of the early indications of his failing strength. Then came the collapse in the house of lords at the conclusion of vigorous. speech in support of the educational bill. He had not left his bed since. He will be buried at Canterbury. The bishop of Winchester is considered likely to be his successor.
 The funeral of the archbishop will take place Saturday at noon in Canterbury cathedral MT, White, the United States charge d'affaires, was among the callers at the archbishops palace today.

and of the Big -Four, 80 that the traveller
can conveniently strike any important
point in the United States from this great
clearing house Of travel, In which the
Minneapolis & st. Louis road has now be-
come factor. This feature will be well
coined not only by travellers much on the
road. but also by ladies' travelling alone,
for the Illinois Central station attendants
are nightly courteous and thoughtful OF
travellers comfort and safety.
The Minneapolis & ST. Louis has not
only improved its service for through
business, but by Its new route with the
Illinois Central has opened q new territory
for Minneapolis. There is a strong bond
Of symlS thy between Minneapolis and
Rockford, ILL.,, for instance. Scandinavian
interests are strong in each place, and the
big furniture trade Of Rockford takes
many men between that point and the
large Minnea polls market Formerly 1t
was like going round Robin Hoods barn
to go from Minneapolis to Rockford, and
the trip was costly both in fare and time.
Now the passenger simply boards his train
at Minneapolis and goes right through
without delay, ~ Freeport, ILL.,, is another
good point similarly pulled closer to Min
neapolis, and these advantages of the new
route have been APPARENT from the first in
we'll loaded trains. There Is but little new
track on the new route, the larger part Of
the way being over old construction, which
accounts for the fast time made by the
new train. The Minneapolis & st. Louis
is working to make conditions even bet
ter, as evidenced by the work between
Hopkins and Chaska, now nearly com
pleted. In this stretch there were origi-
nally twenty-five curves. When the pres
| ent work, which will cost $500, 900, is done
there will be but two, and, besides that
| all heavy grades will be reduced to the
| lowest practicable minimum.

THE ISLE OF PINES
Americans Who Settled There Are
~ in a Peck Of Trouble. =

Washington, Nov. 10.-The question Of
control Of the Isle Of Pines was brought
to-day directly to the attention Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, A delegation consisting
Of s.. H. Pearcy, j. H. Randall, T. j..
Keena and J. H. Hill, all citizens Of the
United States residing ~ the. Isle sof Pines,
was introduced to the president by Senator
Cullom of Illinois, chafrmanAof the senate
committee on foreign relations.
It was shown that the party represented
more than 800 citizens ut the United States
who have taken residence in the Isle OF
Pines.
Many have made large Investments on
the island in land and improvements. I'M
der the belief that the United States would
control It,. The president was informed
that more than half Of the island is owned
by American citizens.
AS result Of the turning over Of the
Isle of Pines to the republic Of Cuba for
administrative purposes, things are said by
the delegation to be in chaotic state on
the island. There is not a notary public or
a judicial officer on the island. The dele
cation is informed that the republic of
Cuba claims the Isle of Pines and pur-
poses to establish prisons, penal colonies
and leper hospital there. Such course,
If pursued, the delegation indicated to the
president, would wipe out every dollar in
vested in the island.
President Roosevelt promised to consider
the subject. but indicated no line Of pro-
cedure he was likely to take. The dele
CATION later called on Secretary Hay and
Secretary Root.

A. J. Searle of Leadville Surprises
People by Post Mortem Hos
IT,. tility to Religion.
Neso YorA Su,s Special Service


Leadville, Col, Nov. 10.-Funeral serv-
ices were held here yesterday afternoon
over the remains of A. J. Searle. one Of
the best known mining men Of this dis
trict. and commander &C the local Grand
Army post. The body will be sent to
Lawrence, Kan, for burial.
Mr.. Searle wrote his own funeral SER
mon long before he died and it was read
at his funeral to-day in lieu of any re-
ligious service, which he strictly forbade.
In his sermon he wrote that he had long
been convinced that all religions are Of
human origin and are frauds that can
only gain credence through ignorance and
superstitution, and he declared that he
could not form any idea of a soul that
was to live after his body was dead. He
closed his writings by saying:
II leave the world with kindness to all
men and at peace with my mind, with
no fears Of an angry God, and no hope or
desire for any pleasures as gift from
His hand
The sermon written by the dead man
was lengthy one, and outside of his
peculiar views on religion contained some
beautiful thoughts. Through his long
business career he was never heard to
utter one word against the church, and
his own sermon, which was to be opened
and read only on the day Of his funeral.
