SALISBURY is DEAD
LAST OF THE FAMOUS STATES.
MEN OF THE VICTORIAN ERA
PASSES AWAY.

London, Aug. 24.-Lord Salisbury
died peacefully at 9:05 o'clock Satur-
day night.
For forty-eight hours the end was
seen to be inevitable. and the great
frame Of England's former premier
was sustained only by the constant
use Of oxygen. Even the administra-
ton Of oxygen failed of effect as the
evening advanced. and soon after the
shadows had crept up from the valley
and enshrouded the dull red walls of
Hatfield house, the distinguished
statesman. making the last effort Of
his life. turned slightly toward his
favorite daughter, Lady Gwendoline
Cecil, who was kneeling beside him.
and then quietly breathed his last.
Lord Edward Cecil had been warned
early in the afternoon by telegraph
that the end was near. All the other
members of his lordship's family had
gathered at the bedside.
The death of Lord Salisbury oc-
Cured on the fiftieth anniversary of
his entry into public life as a mem

ford.
The ex-premier. though retired from
political life, was an important figure
in many public ways. He was a war
den of the clique ports. high steward
of Westminster and chancellor of Ok
ford university. He was looked upon
as the last of the great statesmen of
the Victorian era, and his quiet tri-
umphs in the interests of peace showed
a diplomacy of the highest order.

lower stories Of which were occupied

floors by flats, cut off the escape Of
many of the 200 work people and of
the residents on the third and fourth

Ten Thousand Heroes of Civil War
on Review.

San Francisco. Aug. 2O.-Ten thou
sand survivors of the Civil war passed
in review Wednesday. marching to
the martial tunes that inspired them
to endeavor forty years ago. Above
the national colors, borne by every
marcher, proudly foated torn and tat
tered flags. These. with empty sleeves
and limping gait, were eloquent re-
minders of the sorrow and glory of
war.
In the long line were men from
every corner of the nation. Veterans
who perhaps had enlisted from Maine
or some other far away state wore the
badges OF Western commonwealth,
showing the growth Of the nation they
fought to keep intact OF all the
states, California excepted. the one
that had the largest number in line
was Illinois, but Ohio was close sec.

Wonderful Speed and the eaekers
Of the Reliance Were Alarmed.
New York, Aug. 24.-ln splendid
twelve to fifteen-knot breeze over
windward and leeward course of thirty
miles, the gallant sloop Reliance Sat-
urday beat shamrock III. In command
ing style by exactly nine minutes act
ual time, or seven minutes and three
seconds after deducting the one min
ute and flfty-seven seconds which the
defender comedies to Sir Thomas LIP
tons third challenger on account Of
her larger sailing plan a.; at present
measured.
1t was royal water fight for the an
cient trophy which carries with 1t the
yachting supremacy Of the world. and
by strange coincidence the first vic
tory in the cup series OF 1903 occurred
en- the tifly-second anniversary OF the
day on which the old schooner Ameri-
ca captured it in her famous race
around the Isle OF Wight. Reliance
beat lne British boat three minutes
and twenty-four seconds in the thresh
to windwart and five minutes and
thirty-six seconds in the run down the
wind.
The nautical sharps who had already
made up their minds on Thursday that
Reliance could take the measure of
the challenger in any kind OF weather,
regard Saturdays test as conclusive,
although they hardly anticipated so
overwhelming victory.
Dampened Lipton's Ardor.
The race even dampened the ardor
of Sir Thomas, who insisted after
Thursdays tiuke that his confidence in
the beautiful craft designed by Fife
was greater than ever. STILL like
true sportsman. he does not acknowl-
next time.
1t must be conceded, however, that
Shamrock showed herself wonderful
boat in the beat to windward, perhaps
the ablest craft in this respect ever
sent across the Atlantic on cup
hunting expedition. For twelve miles
the great single-stickers raced like
team OF horses. and during that por-
ton of the duel the patriots made no
attempt to conceal their nervousness.
The scene at the finish was soul.
stirring.
Under her towering cloud of can
vas. rolling rhythmically in the sway,
Reliance bounded across the viewless
finish line. Excursion boats gathered
there fairly awakened the echoes with
the terrific din which they let loose.
Such pandemonium can only be heard
when an American yacht is victorious
in cup race Then the immense
ccncourse OF vessels waited until
Shamrock. majestic even in defeat,
swept by between the stakeboats. The
reception she received was. IL any
thing. more hearty than that accorded
to her successful rival Such tribute
Americans gladly paid to the true
British sportsman who is so valiantly
trying to win back the trophy which
the old schooner America captured
from fleet of English yachts fifty-two
years ago Saturday.
