MOST REV. FREDERICK TEMPLE
Archbishop Of Canterbury and Primato
Of All England.
the archbishop's remarkable vitality
enabled him to counteract his ex-
IRENE weakness. The final collapse
occurred about six o'clock and he
was unconscious towards the end.
The primate died of old age. The
pathetic scene in Westminster ABB
hey at the coronation Of King Ed
ward was one of the earlier indica-
tions of his failing strength. Then
came the collapse in the house OF
lords at the conclusion of a vigorous
speech in support of the education
bill. He had not left his bed since.
HiS Career. r

cISh 1clNH1C was dA Unusually VIII
liant collegian and was elected mathe-
NAUTICAL tutor of his college, but pre-
ferred to enter holy orders. Ordained
in 1916, he was two years subsequently
appointed principal of the training
college at Kneller Hall, post he re-
tanned until 1858, when he was made
head master of the famous public
school at Rugby. DR.. Temple in 1869
was consecrated bishop at Westmin-
ster and for 16 years served in vari-
Gus capacities always active, always
distinguished by his vigor and origin
atty in every enterprise he undertook.
In 1885 he was transferred to the bish-
opric of London, which he filed for II
years. In 1896 he took the last possi-
bic step upward in the Anglican HER

LIT TIE DINERS 1T DINNER
Walters Went On Strike Very
 Suddenly at Chicago.

Methodist Ministers Had to Wait on Themselves-Wa Union Threat
 ems to Bring Out the Workers in All
 the Big Hotels. Chicago, J@e 12.-Treuble devel- oped rapidly last night in the strike of cooks, walters and restaurant em- ployes. Early in the evening the em- ployes of Ainsley's restaurant went on strike leaving a number of Methodist ministers, who were at dinner, to shift for themselves. Later officers of the Cooks and Walters union announced that to-day a strike would be called ill all the hotels the managers of which are members of the Hotel Keepers as- sociation. This means that every em- ploye in all the big downtown hotels, with the exception of the clerks, will refuse to work.
 The Restaurant Keepers associa- tion, an organization distinct from the Hotel Keepers association, held stormy meeting, and after midnight G. ". Walton, president of the associa- tion, was expelled from the organiza- ton after being openly accused of act ingaa mediator between labor lead CTS and restaurant owners with a proposition to settle the strike for ST. GOO. Of this sum $2,000 was to be paid to labor man, whose name was men toned in the meeting reports of the ne gotiations which have occurred, and $1 ,000 was to be paid to each Of i've other members of the joint board ot walters.
 "Last Saturday evening"" said John Vogelsang, T met MT Walton and related 10 him our failure in our ne gotiations with:.the joint board of the cooks and walters on the previous evening. and after finishing Mir Walton said to me: MT Vogeisang. don't you know that you cannot do any business with that board unless you put up some money?'
 "Later in the day I was met again by Mr. Walton, who told me he had been in communication with this mem Der of the joint board. that $7,0O0 was the amount demanded and that if the money was deposited with a satisfac- tory person they would agree to a plan of arbitration I told him I would have nothing to do with such a scheme"
 The expulsion of MT Walton followed MT Vogelsang's statement. The res taurant keepers declare that general lockout will be inaugurated if strike is attempted on large scale,
