FIRE FIGHTER KILLED.
Lieut.. Bassett Goes BraveIy to Death
in Chicago Fire.


in Chicago Fire.
Chicago, Dec. 20.--Lieut Henry Bias.
sett, chief advocate of the double pla-
toon system In the Chicago fire de-
partment, was killed late yesterday at
ternoon while lighting spectacular
fire in big factory building at North
Wood and Division streets. He was
crushed to death under falling brick
wall.
The lieutenant was in charge Of truck
company No. 40, and his efforts to dem-
onstrate the advantages Of the two
platoon plan and the freshness Of his
men were largely responsible for his
death. He was directing the members
of his company with exceptional dar-
ing when the tumbling and crumbling
bricks crushed him. Another fireman
at his side almost suffered the same
fate. q
In escaping from the doomed build
ing. thru clouds Of smoke and flame.
almost two score factory girls who had
been working on an upper floor, mar
rowly escaped perishing. Four jof
them and several men employees were
injured. Persistent rumors prevailed lin
the early evening tAdt SolAc VI lAe 1aS@
tory operatives had lost, their lives.
But no bodies were discovered and
the firemen at midnight believed that
all were alive and accounted for.
The factory was that Of the Charles
w. Shonk company, which Is engaged
in making and painting signs, at 62s-
635 North Wood street. The six story
building, which covered half block OF
ground was destroyed within two
hours. The property loss was estimat-
ed at 100000.

THOMAS FORTUNE RYAN AND TWO OF HIS HOMES

his characteristics that he never be-

At any rate, He told plausible story
about his objects in acquiring the

to see that the Equitable muss would
precipitate panic II allowed to go on,
and he had too many important inter
ests at stake to permit that. Even
when he refused to tell what Edward
n. Hartman said to him he did 1t
calmly, automatically and without the
slightest show Of feeling. He had his
lawyer present. He Zig always wise
enough to fence himself legally, and he
went by the lawyers advice. When
trict Attorney Jerome that gentleman
requested the presence Of this lawyer,
flashed his glasses toward the attorney
once or twice. said few quiet words,
and the result was that Mr. Ryan sent
word to the committee that he would
answer the questions after all. But he
came down gracefully; he does every
thing gracefully. Jerome in his quick,
nervous fashion had remarked some
thing about a grand jury, Indictment
and that sort Of thing and it would
never do for Ryan to be- caught in that
kind Of box. He is too much Of an
expert at the game to make such
crude play.

DR. osLER's NEW BOOK.
He Declares Aged Should Not Be

Baltimore, Md, Dec. 20.--"Counsels
and ideals" Is the title OF DR.. William
Oslers new book, q copy of which has
just been received by his friend, DR..
Henry Nj. Hurd, OF Johns Hopkins uni
versity- Upon the question of the age
limit of mans utility the famous ply
stefan, whose views on this subject
prov oked so much discussion last win
ter, says in his book:
when man neither wax nor honey
can bring home he should be dissolved
from the hive to give more laborers
room. / would urge the clinical ply
stefan as he travels further from the
east to look we'll to his companions, to
see that they are not OF his own age
and generation. He must walk with
the boys else he Is irrevocably lost.
Il would not have him basil plant,
to feed on the brains of the bright
young men who follow the great wheel
uphill, but to keep his mind receptive,
plastic, and impressionable, he must
travel with the men who are doing the
work of the world, the men between
the ages of 25 and 40.
LAS q rule, a man dies as he has
lived-uninfluenced practically by the
thought of a future life. l have care
full records Of about 500 death beds,
studied particularly with reference to
the modes of death and the sensations
Of dying.
'.The great majority gave no signs
one way or the other, like their birth,
their death was a sleep and forget
ting.
I'VE have the highest authority for
the statement that the lunatic and the
poet are OF the imagination. Plato
recognizes a madness which is not an
evil, but divine gift. The poet is a
light and winged and holy thing, whose
inspiration, genius. or faculty, or
whatever we may choose to call it, is
allied to madness.
From out Of the memory Of tn,
past, long line of students whom
have taught and loved and who have
died maturely-mentally, morally.
or bodily, there arises before me a
shadowy group How many have l
lost from the student band by mental
death, some stillborn from college, 9TH
ers dead within the first year Of in
fantile marasmus.
ITO the teacher-nurse-it is a sore
disappointment to find at the end of
ten years 80 few minds with the full
stature of which the early days gave
promise"

Whitney also said that in twenty years
Ryan would be the richest man in the
United States. The twenty years have
not elapsed yet 30 the new owner Of
the Equitable has time to make good
the prophecy. 1t goes without saying
that be Is already well on the road.
The more the character Of Ryan Is
studied the more the strength Of the
man is seen. He IL credited with being
the power behind Tammany Hall. or at
least a power. He is a director in
more trusts than could be recounted in
an ordinary newspaper article. The
Chicago street railway interests, he: is
concerned there. The gas company of
Philadelphia, he is closely connected
with that. Yet these are the financial
concerns that have occasioned two of
the greatest municipal revolts in recent
political history. Then he Is the most
prominent figure In the gas company of
New York that has been under the
searchlight at Albany and against
which the citizens of New, York have
been raising such vigorous protest.
The Brooklyn Rapid Transit is another
institution that has been roasted I'M
mercifully by the people, and Ryan Is
very intimately concerned in that. The
Public Service corporation Of New .Jer-
sey, Ryan is big frog in that pool.
The Central Railway Of Georgia that
has raised such commotion in the
south, Ryan promoted that. The State
Trust Company Of New York, over
which there was raised such hubbub
few years ago for making $1,000
600 loan to an Office boy, other loans to
its directors and 100000 loan to Lou
Payn, the insurance commissioner of
New York-this State Trust company
that was Investigated by Roosevelt
when governor-Ryan was in that.
Then he organized the Morton Trust
