Nearly every country in the world was

The exhibit had the distinction, how

was shown, the display of the banner
being greeted with tremendous APP

The most interesting feature of the
exhibit is the department relating TO
hygiene and physical development OF
children, including the care of newborn
infants. model nurseries, and devices for
the amusement and instruction Of the
little ones.
All the larger exhibits show models

THE DEATH OF STANLEY.
Primary Cause Probably Due to Seeds
Of Disease Contracted in
African Wilds.

London, May 1.-THE morning pa.
pers publish editorials expressive of
deep regret at the death of Sir Henry
M. Stanley. The premature death of
Sir Henry is attributed to seeds of dis.
ease which he contracted in the Afri.
can swamps. The warmest tributes
are paid to the man as one of the
greatest Of explorers, and to his
elaborate memoirs and life work.
King Edward and Queen Alexandra. as
well az the king of the Belgians. have
written sympathetic letters of condo.
lence to the widow of Sir Henry, while
innumerable expressions have been re-
ceived from personages of note, in
Guiding Premier Bafour, many mem
bers of the house of commons and men
prominent in geographical and scien-
tific societies. There Is very strong
feeling in favor Of the burial of Sir
Henry In Westminster Abbey, and an
official statement has been issued to
the effect that the dean of Weetmin-
ster has expressed his willingness to
have the first part of the funeral serv-
ice take place in the abbey, as has
been customary at the funerals Of
other distinguished persons in recent
times IT has been learned that Sir
Henry had a stroke of paralysis 13
months ago, from which he was stead
lily recovering when he caught cold
when out driving, the chill that de
veloped pleurisy.

miliarity with his wife's friend.
The baroness pretended to notice
nothing, but soon atterward she brlhed
the Parsienne's maid to hand to her
mistress letter from the baron, in
which he promised the Parisicnno n
pearl necklace Two days later the wife
sent an elegant casket to her pcriidiOus
friend.
Thinking the casket contained the
promised necklace, the Parisicnnc
opened it while still in bed. To her
horror, out crawlcd two vipers OF a
deadly poisonous breed.
The woman tainted, but the reptiles
crawled toward the fire for warmth
without attacking her.
Accompanying the scrpcnts was a
note reading; when you read this
