SAVIOR OF men
Is SUMMONED
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE THE
FAMOUS NURSE, EXPIRES
AT HER LONDON HOME.

London, Aug. 15.--Florence Nightin
gale, the famous nurse of the Crimean
war, and the only woman who ever re
ceived the order of merit, died Satur-
day afternoon at her London home.
Although she had been an invalid for
a long time, rarely leaving her room,
her death was somewhat unexpected.
A week ago she was quite sick, but
then improved, and on Friday was
cheerful. During that night alarming
symptoms developed and she grad
ually sank until 2 o'clock Saturday
afternoon, when an attack of heart
failure brought the end.
Her funeral will be as quiet as posi-.
BILE, in accordance with her wishes
During recent years, owing to her
feebleness and advanced age, Miss
Nightingale had received but few Wis
itors. On May IL last she celebrated
her ninetieth birthday.
Florence Nightingale was born May
IL, 1920. She was the first woman to
follow modern army into battles as
nurse, and in the Crimean war
gained the title of angel of the
Crimea."

abled by testimonial fund amounting
to $25O,00O to found an institution for
the training of nurses, the Nightingale
home at st. Thomas hospital. She was
also the means OF calling attention
to the unsanitary conditions of camp
hospitals.
In 1908 she received the freedom OF
the city of London. King Edward be
slowed upon her the order of merit,
the most exclusive distinction in the
gift of the British sovereign. The
membership of the order is limited to
twenty-four and 1t includes such men
as Lord Roberts, Lord Wolsey, Field
Marshal Kitchener, James Bryce,
Prince Yamagata and Admiral Togo.
There is a strong feeling among the
general public and particularly among
the military men In favor of a public
funeral for Florence Nightingale.
There Is little doubt, however, that her
express wishes in this connection will
be taken into consideration. Not even
the death Of royal parsonage could
have called forth more universal
poignant expressions of regret and
tributes of love and affection than ap-
pear in the English papers.
