MARSHALL FIELD DEAD
 AFTER HEROIC STRUGGLE

Continued from First Page.) Potter Palmer, they organized the firm of Field, Palmer & Letter, which con- tinued until 1867, when MT. Palmer withdrew and the firm became Field, Letter & Go. This continued until 18S1 when MT. Letter retired and the firm became known as Marshall Field & CO, as it is to-day. The house is now the largest enterprise of it's kind in the world having numerous branches throughout Europe and Asia. Its re- markable success is attributed almost entirely to Mir. Field and his methods. He made it a rule never to borrow money and never to issue note. He paid cash for everything he bought. The great fire of 1871 was the only re- verse ever experienced by the firm. Its losses aggregated over one million dol lars.
 In 1872 the wholesale department was separated from the retail store, and the latter now covers two city squares and is located in buildings twelve stories in height.
 { While building up the dry goods store MT. Field invested heavily in Chicago real estate, and to the appreciation of this in value he owed much of his 1 wealth.
 l At the close of the Worlds fair in i 1893 Mir Field endowed with $1,0O0,OOO the museum known as the Field Colum- bian museum, for which a home valued at $S,000,000 is soon to be erected in the heart of the city. He later gave to the University of Chicago land valued at $45O00O to be used for athletic purposes, and portion of it is known to-day as Marshall field He was extremely char | itable in other directions.
 Personally, MT. Field was a hand some man, trifle above medium height, slender and well proportioned. In politics he never interfered, although he was always ready to aid with time and money any movement looking to- ward better national or municipal gov- ernment. He was prominently mention ed as a presidential candidate on the democratic ticket in 1904. He was several times offered the second place on the ticket, but refused to accept it.
 MT Field was twice married, his first wife having died several years ago Mrs. Field left two children. Ethel, now married and residing at bennington England, and Marshall Field, jr., who accidentally shot himself at his home in this city November 22, 19O5 and diec five days later. September 5, 1905. MT Field was married in London, England to Mrs. Caton, widow of Arthur Caton of this city,

Our well known druggist. MT. Wm- + Hull, says Vinol is q great medicine for children, It produces bone, muscle and rich pure blood. It is not a patent medicine, as everything in it Is named on the back label of every bottle, so parents know exactly what they are giving their children; it contains in a highly concentrated form all the cura- tive, medicinal principles of cod liver oil, but without the nasty oil and chll- dren love its taste. It soon makes puny ones strong and rosv.

who takes it into consideration is bound to succeed if he but perseveres.
 If l can contribute anything to the seriousness of this occasion 1t is this, that the business man who considers and studies the relation of his business to the affairs of the state is the man who contributes most to the welfare of the state. The business man who will exchange ideas, not only with his business associates, but with men in other walks of life, who will go to the law making power in Hartford, and express his views to that law-making power Is the man who not merely helps himself, but contributes his fair share of the government of the state of Connecticut.

EVIDENCE MOST IMPORTANT
Death Was Caused by Severing of the
Cartoid Artery - Rumor That
More "Holy Rollers" Are Com
ing to Seattle.

SEATTLE, July l3-That George
Mitchell was sane man when he slew
"Josuah" Creffield, was the conclusion
arrived at by physicians today who
performed a post-mortem examination
on the young man. His brain was nor
NAL in every detail.
The bullet which entered MitchelPs
head went in below the left ear and
ploughed through his head, lodging in
his right jaw bone. 1t did not touch
his brain. Death was due to hemorr-
hage caused by severing the cartoid ar
terry. Mitchell's sanity is expected to
have an important bearing on the case
of the two women, when they are put
on trial for murder. The report that
the holy Rollers" are assembling in
Seattle, has caused activity in the po-
lice department. Chief Wappenstein
states he has had enough Of this sect,
and no more Of them viii be tolerated
in Seattle. The police are now working
on clews, which may implicate several
others of this sect in Mitchell's murder.
