WILLIAM FOREST DEAD
Wife Now 0H Her Way From
 Scotland.

William Forest, Sr, 51 East Liberty street died at Lang's sanitarium this afternoon. He was operated upon Thursday evening for appendi- citis and has been sinking rapidly since that time. In connection with MT Forests illness there are some pa thetie circumstances.
 Three months ago Mrs Forest and Mrs Margaret Taylor of Thomaston left for Scotland where they have relatives and intended to remain there during the summer. MT Forest and the children were all we'll at that time. Monday of this week MT Forest was not feeling very well and called in physician. The doctor diagnosed the case as diarrhoea but did not think it serious. But MT For est grew worse, so another physician was summoned and he immediately came to the conclusion that the pa tient was suffering from appendicitis.
 Thursday evening one of the For est children sent a cablegram to her mother in Scotland informing her of MT Forests illness. The mother be- lieving that the child was a trifie homesick, was nevertheless frighten- ed and cabled to Robert c. Walker, asking for particulars. MT Walker, who knew the condition of MT Forest, sent back word tEat her husband was serious. Mrs Forest prepared for an immediate return and is now on her way home.

WATCH THE TWO BILLS"
An Event of Great Importance That
 This City Will Enjoy,

The Two Bills" will be in town shortly. They are coming under the supervision of the local aerie of Eagles. They will be silent on the political question, but they will be very loquacious, when they get to explaining the purposes of their visit. Down at the Eagles nest o South Main street all is hustle and excitement. They await the advent of the Bills" with much curiosity and expectancy. There are
 souvenir postal cards announcing the time of their arrival, but they have little handbooks, which tell a whole story in themselves. , Any Eagle can tell you the history those little books. So can Mary De- laney. Patrick Griffin, Patrick Lynch and Mrs Doyle. They were golden eagles for them. The home that
 have been working for all your life time is within your grasp. If it costs but $2,000, you have it in your power to get it. If you should meet an Eagle on the street, ask him to show you one of the treatises on how to get rich quick" There is no fifteen puzzle about it. It is a sim pie arrangement and anybody can work the problem. New Hampshire has already sent in 5000 applications for the answer. The question has always been luckily replied to by some of our citizens. The hope of the local Eagles is that 1t will be as satisfactorily answered this year as it has been in the four preceding ones. October 17 to the 26th will be gala days for the home people The Eagles Nest will be the rem dezvous. All get rich quick schemes will be put in the shade. for the Eagles have the goods and they want to dispose of them. If you want to get in on the ground floor just hold up any Eagle you come across and ask him Why is it?" and he will give you the answer. Appli- cations can be made verbally or by letter, even the wireless telegraph can be used. But the great and burning question is, that if you don't know what this article means. get next to an Eagle with the spreading wings and he will tell you something that will make you one of the charmed circle.
