died at his villa here this morning.
Until a few years ago Henry Labou-
chere was one of the most prominent in
dependent politicians in the British Isles
He was a member of parliament for about
half century. but always declined to
take Office in any cabinet. His political
views were extremely radical, but he pre-
ferred to give expression to them as a
free lance In the house of commons.
Mr.. Labouchere welded very caustic
pen, which was used freely in the weekly
newspaper Truth, of which he was pro-
prietor and editor. and in which he ex-
posed many abuses in political. CONNER
cial and diplomatic life. He was at one
time in the diplomatic service and served
as attache at Washington In 1854, but he
retired from the service ten years later
to enter politics. Owing to falling health
he had resided in Italy since 1906.

OF Greek and Latin, Analvtics and

The professions are all Overcrowded
it requires half life time for one to

so.

dead languages and other things two
thousand years old, when living issues
and golden opportunities are calling
them on.

ALL SORTS AND KINDS REPRESENTEn
IN THE BIG CONVENTION CROWNS

Chicago, June 19.-It is a funny
crowd that is here attending the con-
vention. There are lonely farmers,
whose clothes proclaim the fact that
they are unused to large hotels; there
aIe elderly women whose clothes in
dictate that black silk is not entirely
out of fashion, nor hobble skirts en-
tirely in fashion, there are young men
who stare vacantly at everything, yet
VINO enjoy themselves hugely; there
are bewhiskered gentlemen in broad
cloth and white shirts who staidly
gaze over the mob in search of just
one familiar face; there are clean-cut
business men who act like schoolboys
and are not above doing a jig step
when the bands play lively tune, and
there are earnest, thoughtful mer-
chant princes who frown when the
thought occurs to TEN that the repub
the "demnition bow-wows.
Then there are the women of thu
present gene alton. Taey may be d.
vided into two classes In the small
er class are maidens and nations of
very evident refinement, beautifully
gowned and deeply interested in what
is going on. They stand being jostled
and elbowed, and rudely stared at with
/; sort of stoical indifference, and to
their escorts or companions actually
display enjoyment in the antics of the
mob, and in the part they themselves
play in the showing and the crowd

of women little need be said
