HEAD OF GEORGIA UNIVERSITY
TAKEN BY PNEUMONIA.
TRULY GREAT EDUCATOR
Member of Distinguished Party That
Visited Madison to Inspect Wscon-
sin University AS a Model for the
Improvement and Development of
the Southern institution.
Madison, Dec.

hdulSOI5 DEC.
A telegram was received yesterday
| by Professor w. w. Daniels from
Athens, Georgia, announcing the
| death of Chancellor w. B. Hill, head
of the University of Georgia and one
of the best known and most promi-
nent educators and scholars of the
south Death was caused by pneu-
mOnia and came with suddenness, as
Chancellor Hill had been sick only Il
short time. He had spent the last
summer at Oxford, England, in com
poor health, the result of over work
in the building up of the southern uni
versity. He returned to his work in
excellent physical condition and with
great enthusiasm. Consequently the
news of his death was a great sur
prise.
About a year ago Chancellor Hill
spent few days in Madison, coming
with a considerable party Of promi-
nent Georgians, including the COVER
nor and other officials, the purpose be
ing to inspect the University of Wis
consin with a view to using it in large
measure as a model for making extern
sfve changes in the southern institu-
ton. The party was brought here by
George Foster Peabody of New York,
leading philanthropist and capital
list, who in many material ways has
been the benefactOr of the University
of Georgia. One of his recent gifts
was an income of $4,000 a year to
the University of Georgia for the
maintenance Of a school of forestry
Mr.. Peabody is a cousin of Mrs
w. w. Daniels of Madison. 1t was
partly through this relationship, per
haps, that the University OF Wiscon
sin became so favorably known to the
Georgians as to be inspected as the
model for the Improvement OF the
university of the southern state. The
compliment to Wisconsin in being so
selected out of all the large educa
tional institutions of the country was
considered as unusual.
became known for the great work OF
education he has accomplished in the
south and also for his many other
amiable and sterling qualities, and
while the state of Georgia will deeply
mourn the untimely removal OF this
great man, the leaders in the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin will have a sincere
part in the sorrow.
Chancellor Hill was lawyer before
called to undertake the work of pres
ident of the university. He was about
so years old and has four children,
two sons and two daughters. The
daughters were members of the party
on the trip to Madison, and it was
from one of these that the message
came telling of the death of the
chancellor.

CITY FATHERS
COME TO BLOWS

Milwaukee, Dec. 29.-Alderman
Sherburn M. Becker of the first ward
and Alderman Francis J. Stiglbauer of
the 18th ward came to blows at a
meeting of the finance committee at
the city hall yesterday afternoon.
Becker struck at Stiglbauer but missed
him. Stiglbauer struck at the same
moment, landing a hard blow on
Becker's left jaw. The other alder
men of the committee separated the
combatants before further blows could
be struck. Becker then made hur-
ried trip to the fifth floor of the city
hall and swore out a warrant for the
arrest of Stiglbauer, charging him
with assault and battery.
The trouble arose in the discussion
over the city budget. The aldermen
were taking turns in making individu-
al copies for themselves of the tenta-
tive list submitted by Comptroller
Pawinski, and at the same time were
discussing the various items. When
they reached the Emergency hospital
appropriation, Alderman Smith sug-
gested that it be cut down and Alder
man Stiglbauer seconded this move.
Alderman Becker objected, and it was
suggested that the aldermen wait until
all the copies had been made, before
the amounts were changed.
1T takes you too long to write the
figures" said Alderman Becker to
Stiglbauer, who was seated in the
second seat from him, with Comptrol-
Ter Pawinski between them. We'll
never get through at that rate"
"You talk like a sausage" was Stigl-
bauer's retort.
'I'Il knock your head off if you in
suit me again" said Becker, angrily.
"You can't talk to me like that, you
overgrown baby" was Stiglbauer's
angry reply.
At this, both sprang to their feet
and struck, over Comptroller PAWN
skis head. Becker failed to land, but
Stiglbauer struck Becker on the left
jaw, although he failed to throw the
latter off his feet. Before either
could strike again the other aldermen
were on their feet. Alderman Smith
grabbed Becker and jerked him aside.
while from the other side Alderman
Pringle and Deputy Comptroller Wilde
had jerked Stiglbauer out of the scrim
mage zone The other aldermen
then tried to resume the committee
session, but Becker left the room, and
hurried to Clerk Wollers Office, where
in five minutes he had sworn out a
warrant fer Stiglbauer. A policeman
called Stiglbauer out of the commit
tee room and placed him under arrest.

ODELL SAYS
HE WILL FIGHT

New York, Dec. 29.-Former Gov

terday concerning. the contest for the
speakership of the assembly in which
he is backing f.. A. Merritt, Jr.,
against j. w. Wadsworth, Jr., who has
the support OF Governor Higgins
Odell said:
The gentleman up at Albany who
is doing so much yelling just now has
had some starch injected into his
backbone by Roosevelt. He never
had any before. When you hear him
talk these days, the voice is the voice
of Jacob Higgins, but the hand is the
hand of Esau Roosevelt Few per-
sons are deceived by the talk about
Roosevelt not interfering in politics
in this way in any other states. Fools
may he taken in, but you can't catch
old birds by throwing salt on their
tails. 1t is entirely clear that Roose-
welt is back of Higgins in this speak
ership contest, and the so-called in
spired denials do not count This is
going to be a fight to the finish. |

Horrible Execution.

London, Dec. 29.-The st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Telegraph
describing the execution of the chief
of police of Moscow says
"RevOlutiOnists entered the lodging
of the chief of police at midnight and
told him to bid an eternal farewell to
his family because he was condemned
to die. Finding it was no joke, the
chief eXpOstulated but to no purpose.
Realizing his awful position, he
said farewell to his family and was
hurried into the street and shot. His
body was left lying in pool of blood. ;"
The same correspondent relates as
follows operations of the ''vehmger-
ichte" in Riga:
Persons disappeared mysteriously
and a few days afterwards their bod
les were found with identical marks
four bullet wounds on the breast, four
on the back and the skull clOyen in
twain. Of many brought before the
'vehmgerichte' one escaped death but
in so doing was seriously wounded,
probably owing to some interruption
of his eXecutiOners. This person
says he was seized and bound and hur-
ried to a room in which the tribunal
was sitting. The proceedings were
brief. He was condemned to death,
carried to the outside of the town and
