RE|DD|ESINLONDON
OUR AMBASSADOR TO ENGLAND
is DEAD AFTER VERY
SHORT ILLNESS.
FUNERAL WILL BE HELD IN new YORK
He Has Represented the U. S. in Brit
ain Since 1905 With Great Credit
Wife and Daughter Present
at Bedside at the End.

London, Dec. 16.-Whitelaw Reid,
United States ambassador to Great
Britain since 1905, died in his London
residence, Dorchester house, shortly
after noon Sunday from pulmonary
edema. The end was quiet and peace
full. Mrs. Reid and their daughter,
Mrs. John Hubert Ward, were by the
bedside.
The ambassador had been uncon-
scious since o'clock in the morning
and at intervals during the previous
"a hours he had been slightly delirious
as a result of the drugs administered
to induce sleep.
III for Fortnight.
"A fortnight ago the United States
ambassador had a slight bronchial at
tack similar to others which he had
suffered at considerable intervals. On
Wednesday last asthma supervened
and the asthmatic parozysms became
very severe, leading to extreme ex-
haustion.
King Sends Condolences.
Almost Immediately the king sent
his equerry, Sir Harry Legge, to ex-
press the condolences of himself and
the queen.
In the afternoon messages convey
ing the warmest sympathy were re-
ceived from the Queen Mother Alex
andra and from other members of the
members of the court and from various
embassies and legations, while many
persons called at the embassy.
The body will be sent home and
probably will be inferred in Sleepy
Hollow.
Doubtless there will be a memorial
service in one of the cathedrals in
London, in addition to services in
some small chapel for members of the
family and staff of the embassy.
Reid Lifelong Journalist.
Whitelaw Reid was in his 10th year,
having been born October 81, 1887, in
Xenia, Ohio.
He became newspaper writer as
young man, and never ended his con-
nection with the public press. He was
editor in chief of the New York Trib-
une for many years, and afterward be-
came proprietor of that journal. He
served in the first organizations of the
civil war in 1861, and then as war cor
respondent, in which capacity he was
present at many important battles. At
one time he was librarian of the house
of representatives; at another he was
a cotton planter in Louisiana.
Succeeded Joseph n. choate.
In 1902 he was appointed special
ambassador to Great Britain for the
coronation of King Edward VII, with
whom he was always on the most
friendly terms. He was chosen in
March, 1905, United States ambassa-
dor to Great Britain in succession to
Joseph H. Choate.
Whitelaw Reid married in 1881 FL
zabeth Mills, daughter of the late Da-
RUS Ogden Mills of New York. His
son, Ogden Mills Reid, is president of
the Tribune association and managing
editor of the Tribune. His daughter
Jeanne is the wife of the Hon. John
Hubert Ward, equerry in waiting to
Queen Alexandra.

two shots at himself, both shots taking
effect in the head, but neither knock
ing him senseless. He then started
toward the entrance to the tunnel, ac-
cording to his story, hearing the
searching party coming. When he got
within sight of the lantern carried by
the searchers he shot at it and then
retreated again into the tunnel, but
not until a shot from one of the men
had lodged in his leg. This was be-
tween IL and II o'clock, and it was
claimed that about o'clock three
more muffled shots were heard from
the tunnel, the shots which took effect
in the mans body. He claims that he
was stunned for time. and after re

LOCAL GAGS ARE SNAPPY

as Comedians in First Part
Strong Vocal Contingent.

Those who were present at the I'LL
nois theatre last night to attend the
minstrel show given under the aus
pices of Rock Island Aerie of Eagles
No. $50 were given a rare treat, for
the performance was one of the best
amateur efforts which has ever been
staged in the city. With one or two
exceptions, the show went without a
hitch. There was an excellent array
of talent in the cast, and every man
went through his stunt as though he
had been travelling around the coun-
try with Lew Dockstader for the past
decade.
SHOW IN HIGH CLASS.
There have been professional min
strel shows put on in Rock Island in
the past that were not bit better, and
there is not the slightest doubt that
if the show were dressed down a lit
tie, it could hit the road and make
good.
The end men, Owen Mcclure and
Jack Barr, proved themselves to be
real comedians and kept the house in
an uproar. A number of local gags
were sprung of which the following
are samples
IF two half dollars rattle, would a

Mr.. Barr-"Oh, nothing. Only was
just wondering if that same man that
built the temple has the contract for
our postoffice.'

it being presented by Charles Froh-
man with the New York original cast,
following runs at the Criterion thea
tire, and at the Blackstone theatre, Chi
cago "Passers-By" was more than the
ordinarily interesting play. 1t aroused
the critics to unusual enthusiasm, not
alone on account of its original quail

cast Mr.. Frohman contributed TO the
production. The original company and

all matters, so that success or failure
rested entirely with the author. One
seldom reads of a cast so admirable
