DEATH OF LORING BINGHAM.
One of the Prominent Young Men Of Bennins-
ton.

Loring Dewey Bingham, only son
of Hon Henry S. Bingham and wife
died at one o'clock this morning after
a long and trying illness from chronic
disease of the heart.
He was taken i'll in New York in
September and had hard run of ty-
phoid fever, being six weeks confined
in the hospital in that city. The fever
left his heart diseased and he was taxi
en- t. the Samaritan hospital in Troy,
where he remained until three months
ago bat did not improve and came
home and has failed gradually since.
Mr. Bingham was one of the best
known young men in Bennington. He
was a student in the local high school
and afterward studied at the Peekskill
military academy and at st Johns
Military school at Manlius.
After leaving school he travelled for
his father and later was manager of
an underwear specially store in Syra
cuse for three years. At the time he
was taken i'll he had position in the
large commission house of Critten,
Cliff & Co., in New York.
Had he lived until November, he
would have been 30 years old. He
was member of the Stark hose COM
pany and of the local tribe ofRed Men.
Besides his parents he leaves one sis
ter, Miss Ella Bingham.
Mr. Bingham was a young man of
splendid character and was favorite
with large circle offriends, who we're
attracted by his clean life and sterling
worth. No young man in Bennington
was more universally esteemed than
Loring Bingham and his death came
as a shock to the entire community,
which had hoped he would be able to
throw of the disease.
The funeral will be held Monday af-
ternoon at O'Clock at his late home.

In tl.e boundaries of the United States,
and was named Louisa after the I-ousi-
ana Territory and Francis after the Pres
icent OF the Louisiana Purchase Exposi-

The baby weighed three pounds when
! born. Climatic conditions made life un-
certain. While great effort was made to
prolong her life. she was so frail that the
Philippine Commissioners had little hope.
The mother of Louisa Francis. according;
10 Governor Hunt, is only 12 years old and
weighs siNty-five pounds. She is one of
the smallest members OF the Filipino

ceptible to disease

MUDDY FAIR APPROACHES.

Exposition Looks to City to Befter
Condition of Streets Near site.
Passengers OF the Transit and SUBURBAN
lines who have occasion TO use the Ad-
rnnistration entrance of the Worlds Fair
grounds at Skinker road are ardently
hoping that the question Of whose duty
it is to better the condition OF that ES-
position approach will be speedily set
tied.
At present the roadway and the side
walks. too, are seething mass Of mud
and water.
The mud is OF the black and sticky kind.
and the passenger who is not a contor-
tiorist and attempts TO balance himself
on the one submerged plank leading from
the loops to the Fair entrance frequently
forms an intimate acquaintance with ii.
Director of Works Taylor could not be
seen in regard to the condition Of the apA
proacb. but his secretary merely stated
when asked what the Exposition manage
ment would do in regard to bettering its
condition. that the ground outside the gate
was not included in the Fair site, and that
the question was one with which the city
must deal.
From other sources It was learned that
the Exposition was depending on the
street-raiiway companies TO do something
toward making the approaches to the Fair
at this point fit TO walk upon without Il
pedestrian being mred.

FILIPINO SCOUTS
DECLARE CIVIL WAR.
Afraid of Chicken Pox, They Bar
Constabulary From Their
Camp.
ARE ALL OLD FRIENDS.
Sentinels on Guard May Shoot
Adventurous Constables if
They Try to Break
Through Lines.

The Filipino scouts at the Worlds
Fair will have nothing to do with the
members Of the Filipino constabulary. for
the present. at least. Chicken pox within
the ranks of the constabulary is the cause
of it.
The scouts at the Worlds Fair number
about 49, and they are encamped within
about 200 feet of the Quartet where the
800 members of the constabulary are hold
ing forth
When it was reported In the scout camp
that seven members OF the consta abulary
had been stricken with chicken pox an
order was Immediately promulgated TO
the effect that the constables of the Phil
ippines could not be admitted within the
lines of the scout camp
Armed sentinels have been placed around
the scout camp and any constabulary
official who tries to break through the
lines will be in imminent danger of being
shot.
There Is only one thing that Filipino
scout breads worse than chicken pox, and
that is smallpox. 1t is also hard to con-
vince Filipino scout that there Is much
difference between the two maladies
The cfrstabulary is made up largely Of
the same kind of men that compose the
membership of the scout battalion. The
scouts have many friends in the constabu-
larry. and vice versa. But when chicken
pox breaks out in one camp friendship
ceases.
The Filipino scout doesn't hunger for
an attack OF chicken pox, and in the words
OF the sentinel. Woe unto any Manila
constable who tries to break through
these lines"
1t is probable that the Quartet officials
will keep the constabulary indoors for the
next two weeks. While none of those now
in the Quartet show any symptoms OF
chicken poN, il is considered wise to keep
them inside until all danger is removed.
The scouts donned their old clothes yes
teruny and went to work. Major Johnston.
the commanding officer. has decided to
make a new parade ground. Just west OF
the camp. and 400 scouts worked actively
in pulling stumps and smoothing the rough
surface.
The scouts will participate in a dress
parade tomorrow evening at 6 o'clock.
The scouts band will furnish the music,
and the Filipino soldiers will be seen
for the first time In their new uniforms
These were sent on from Washington
especially for Worlds Fair service.
