water Bill' Gates is said to be under
going the formallties of passing
through bankruptcy. The glamour
OF the Klondike days has waned. His
fortunes have fluctuated as have his
several matrimonial ventures that
began In romances and ended in d.
yorces. They commenced in the
roseate days OF the old Baldwin hotel
and his secret marriage TO one Of
the La Moore sisters. who Is now
the wife of Benson of government
land fraud notorlety. They passed
like Fourth of July fireworks through
the epoc of this romance and mar
riage with the second La Moor sister
and their sensational champagne
crossing of Chilcoot pass in midwin-
ter. saltwater Bill's" next sensa-
tion was his elopement to San Fran
cisco with a young and conhding
Washington girl of some fifteen or
sixteen summers.
Mrs. w. c. Gates. Seattle reg

Thursday night. She had been re-
fused a room at the st. Francis and
at the Imperial. Then she prepared
to celebrate. She had been observ-
ing the holiday season when she ar
rived. Her bell rang at regular IN
tervals. Refreshments from the DaF
were hurried to her room by the ne"
bellboy. Finally the night clerk for
bade the boy taking any more 10 the
room, although everything was De-
ing paid for in advance. But lhe
boy evaded the order and continues
to participate In the spirited enter

morning the bellboy was promptH
discharged. Mrs. Gates shortly AZ

FOR CHAPLAIN OF HOUSE,
Was Chaplain of New Haven Reg

Was Chaplain of New Haven Regi-
 ment.
 The name of the Rev. John Brge Doolittle has been brought forward as chaplain of the house at the coming session of the legislature
 MT. Doolittle has just closed pasto- rate of eleven years with the Congre- gational church in West sufield. He offers himself as a candidate for the chaplaincy of the house of represen- tatives He is to be no longer in the ranks of active pastors.
 Mir. Doolittle was born in Bristol, Conn. In that town and in Plymouth he spent his early years. He fitted for college at Williston seminary gradua- ted from Yale in '63 and studied the- ology at Yale. From that institution he dropped out to enlist for the war" as chaplain of the Fifteenth Connecti- cut volunteer infantry. He was mus tered out with his regiment at the close of the war since which time when not out of the state, he has been, the RegirnentaI association. Since the close of the war he has been in ac- tive service as pastor In East Hart land, Bridgewater, Westbrook and West Suffeld.
 Failing health necessitated change of climate. He spent the years 1879 to 1895 in Nebraska, in the Home Mis- sionary service.
 Mr. Doolittle is descended from some of the most prominent and active among the early settlers of Suttield and Windsor.
 Inspired by their noble ideals, his ambition has been, both east and west, to carry out their spirit and to strive to develop character. As a pas tor he has felt that his greatest mis- sion was to develop in the youth the spirit of lofty Christian patriotism.
 Being Connecticut born and bred and having devoted his life to the work of promoting the best interests of the state. 1t would be an honor which he would gratefully appreciate could he be appointed chaplain Should he succeed, his home will be Hartford.
 Until the close of 1906 he will be so- journing with his son at 375 East Eff teenth street, Brooklyn, N. Y.

Resolved, That the incoming grand master be requested to Issue a letter, under the seal of this grand body, call- ing upon the craft throughout the juris- diction to contribute so much as lies in their power towards defraying the cost of building an addition to the home such as Is proposed and recommended in the foregoing report. and directing ordinate to appoint committee of not less than three members of his lodge to solicit contributions,
 Resolved, That a special tax of twenty-five cents per annum be laid upon each Mason in good standing, the proceeds of the same to be used for de- fraying the cost of the completion of the aforesaid proposed addition. Such special tax is to be collected and re- turned to the grand secretary with the regular grand lodge dues payable in December.
