man n. Howe, died al u 80 Tuesday al her
home on Weston street OF embolism of the
heart resulting from an abnormal tumor.
Mrs. Howe had been in falling health

she had been a most devoted mother. She
is also survived by a brother, Joseph
Thompson OF Raymond, Idaho, and sever
al nephews and nieces.
The funeral service will be held at the,
house tomorrow morning at II o'clock.

WHAT'S GOING ON.
FIVE MINUTES WITH THE BIG
NEWS OF THE WORLD.
Uncle Sam Wins His Case.

The commission, before which the ques-
tions at issue relating to the boundaries
Jstween Alaska and Canada have been
submitted for arbitration, has made its
report, which gives the United States prac-
tically all il contended for. Canada gets
only the Portland canal. The United
States secures all the Klondike gold regions
that it claimed, and long stretch of sea-
coast is now placed beyond question under
the Stars and Stripes. The commission
was constituted by treaty. and was made
up Of an equal number Of Americans and
Canadians, with several neutrals. Lord
A1verstone, lord chief justice of England,
headed the commission and sided with the
Americans. The chief questions at stake
related to the Interpretation of the treaties
by which Alaska was transferred by Great
Britain TO Russia and later by Russia to
the United States. The American people
are very jubilant over the outcome, while
the Canadians are filed with dismay and
are especially toward Great Britain,
by whom they consider themselves be-
trsyed. The Canadian commissioners re-
fused to sign the report.

Dowie's Crusade in Gotham.

John Alexander Dowie and his 5000
sZionists," !" who came from Zion City, ILL.,,
last week by special trains on a crusade to
reclaim New York from sin, have excited
a great deal of interest all through the
East. They have their headquarters in
Madison Square Garden and hold several
sessions daily. Many thousands have at
tended, principally out OF curiosity.
Dowie has sharply assailed the newspapers,
the clergy and the Masons, and his inyect-
ives have often been received with groans
and Kisses. Much turbulence has resulted.
The attempts at healing have been fall
ures. Carrie Nation undertook TO ask
Dowie questions Tuesday and was hustled
out. The whole affair is looked upon by
New Workers as little short of blasphe-
nous.
