Derby Man Passed Away in London
 Hospital.

Derby Man Passed Away in London
 Hospital.
 Thomas S. Birdssye, of Derby, re- ceived a cablegram,' Tuesday evening, which announced the death of E. S. Thompson, of Derby, in a private hos pital in London. 4 .,
 The Ansonia Sentinel says:
 Edwin s. Thompson was born in Derby about sixty-six years ago. He was very we'll known in the city and had a large number of friends here, to whom the news of his death brought sorrow. He has always lived in this city and was one time the agent for Hedges express, and later was book keeper in the store of the F. HaiIock company. In recent years he has not been engaged in business. .E- .. 2 He was a great traveller and had been to Europe tWenty-eight times, spending much of the time abroad in the countries bordering on the Medi- terranean. He was a frequent visitor
 
 to Nice and Naples. and was very much interested in the excavations at Pompeii and had made so many trips to the place that the men in charge of the work had become well acquainted with him, and he enjoyed privileges which few travellers enjoyed. He left Derby on his last trip amout the mid dle of February, and had been in seye,- ral places on the Mediterranean. and was on his way home when taken i'll in London. ,4 r.
 Mr. Thompson was a man of fine character, generous to and thoughtful of others, and many people remember him because of some act of kindness to them in time of trouble. He was an attendant of the First Congregational church. ........ -5..-.. ss,

Mas sive pin-wheels. sky-rockets, Roman candles, flower pots, parachutes and numerous set pieces will be set off.
 The free outdoor vaudeville continues to attract good crowds, some people yesterday visiting the city just to enjoy this feature alone. Mile. and M. Barnes, of the London Hippodrome, have changed their act by putting a number of new stunts" into it. They give one of the most daring mid-air performances in the world.
 There are two other headliners on the bill-the Rio Brothers, acrobats from the New York Hippodrome, and Pongo and Leo, comedy revolving pole artists.
 Mrs. Whit, '' the South American Ca puchin monkey, and her baby monkey, which was born at the White City zoo on Monday, is doing we'll. On a diet of raw eggs and fruit she is rapidly re- gaining strength, and now springs about the cage with Baby Monk on her back in sprightly manner. This is the first case of a monkey ever being born In Connecticut.

A cANNIBAL CAMP ON CONGO.

A SkAINISlBkaL &SlAAlE@ OlNe SO1NsIO4 In the Southern Workmen there is Ia graphic description of visit to a
 cannibaI camp in the Congo region in Central Africa. The camp consisted
 of stockade which was entered by
 a small trap door. '.Go in, said the
 cannibal chief. No said, you go in "No," he insisted, you are the biggest chief; you go in. said no,
 so he got on his knees and in he went.
 Then I got on my knees and went in- side, and the others followed through
 the trap-door. One of the first things that Malumba N'kusa pointed out was the heart of man, very black, with
 Malumba N'Kpsa's spear through it and his native medicine sprinkled around it. The native medicine is |something like flour. He said it was the heart of N'funfu. knew him very well. He had been a friend to us and had offered us hospitality. That
 was all that was left of that chief. I |said but little for thought it better policy.
 On we walked and saw flesh on pieces of bamboo around the fire to dry for future use. We spent two days inside the camp and we counted
 the frames of people as well as we
 could and there were 300 they had n1ur- dered and eaten. He had said there
 were sixty-two women I had seen |only three, two outside tied to a tree
 and one inside; and the two we. saw
 outside certainly had their flesh carved
 off their bodies before they had died.
 With our own hands, while we were in camp. we picked up eighty-one right hands and put them in baskets. These

THE HIGHER HIGHTS.

Turn your thoughts to higher nights of life than money getting; serve hu- manitv that usefulness may come out of your work' This is the advice of John D. Rockefeller to several hundred busi- ness men and editors who called on him in Cleveland, O., to express their appre citation of him as citizen.
 What profound depth the Rockefel- Ter philosophy has reached at last. "Iou gentlemen,' it whispers, 'should not waste your lives in money grubbing, but leave such base pursuits to such sly old coons as l. Really, it isn't worth the trouble See I will soon be dead permanently so, 1 fear; and then all this wealth that have acquired at the by the undoing of my fellow man will go to an ungrateful and selfish posterity You gentlemen had better be good and let 'em have it. It will not make them happy They are liable to waste their lives-just as have done-in trying to get more; and if, sometime in the fu- ture, they succeed-h'm-in acquiring the whole cheese, congratulate your selves that source of great temptation has been removed from your lives, and turn your thoughts to the higher nights. Dear friends, good night"

proval or disapproval of the commis- sioner, circumstances considered, was q marvel of fairness. The only feature that could have operated to the disad- vantage of the commissioner is that Mir. Hudson's zeal in getting the matter down to public test would naturally have strengthened his views on the question involved.
 The Miners Association doubtless did wisely in refusing to accept the respon- sibility of putting the question before the people; but let us acknowledge that Mr. Hudson's s motives were apparently no worse than those which usually move men to public action, that the proposed methods were as fair as ingenuity could make them, and that it was not discred- table to endeavor to bring to a vote a matter which so nearly concerns every one in the precinct.

MR. HUDSON'S PLAN.

The occupation of the professional fault finder requires but slight powers. Just enough mental force to steer his thoughts into their accustomed vermic ulation when he wakes in the morning and sufficient versatility to keep them occupied till he sleeps at night is all that it takes to make perfect specimen of his kind.
 Tue professional agitator is much higher in the scale. He has a purpose, even ii ii is selfish; and his tactics in- spire action and movement, even if in the wrong direction.
 The difference between professional fault finder and professional agitator + that between an individual who whineS and laueuts in order to draw the pity of hi4 more fortunate fellows and one Who starts a TOW in or,lcr to grab something Tor himself lu the resulting confusion.

THE PROPOSED LICENSE.

Attention is respectfully called to the action of the committee on resolutions oi the Alaska Convention in Seattle in sending in a report in favor of a $25 license fee instead of the $l00 worth of assessment work at present required to be done each year on mining claims If the proposition becomes a law the payment of $25 annually will obviate the necessity of doing any work whatsoever in order to hold claim; and it is pre- sumed-although the full intent of the proposition is not known-that working claims would be subject to the same tax The latter presumption may be unwar- ranted: it may be the intention to give the claim owner the option of working or paying, according to his own prefer ence. It would be an innovation, what ever the details of the scheme may be.
 It is matter of chief concern to the miners. If they believe they can see in it the beginning of system whereby they will be made to yield a large and constantly increasing revenue without q compcnsating benefit; or that it would lead to the holding of large numbers of claims in idleness; or that it would be contrary to their welfare in any way prompt action will be worth more than future complaint.
 The Seattle convention will undoubt- edly have an influence on congress; and it ought to have It is the nearest ap- pruach to an expression from the people this territory has ever had. It k the beginning that had to be made some time; and it k not to he expected that it made no mistakes.
