Jacobs home, aflame with ardor. mad
dened with our abortive hopes.
There were sounds of singing from
within. And, as we entered the large
central room which was used as
place of private worship, our passions
died away.
For he was seated upon kind Of
dais, surrounded, quite simply, by the
women Of his family and a few neigh
bors, all unarmed. Men and women.
none seemed to fear. He was chant
ing a prayer, and they, regardless OF
us all. joined in the worship.
They neither looked up nor stirred
Afterward learned that they had mis-
taken us for rioters, and having laid
hopes of life aside, were waiting for
death to strike them, fully prepared.
But as each man entered, he fell into
silence; and presently, one by one.
each took up the burden of the song.
It rose and fell In the plaintive
cadence Of a world-old melody, drown
ing the fierce, distant cries of the MUIR
dering Russians now sacking the Rou-
manian quarter, until its peaceful in
fluence fell upon our hot passions like
rain upon a parched field. When that
song was concluded, the leader Of
our band stood forth and very sheep
ishly, and in stammering accents,
made his petition that the rabbi
should assume leadership of our
movement. The man on the dais lis
tened in silence, often looking from
the speaker to Nikolai and back
again. When all was silent he spoke,
but to Nikolai.
''You are not Of our people, he
said. you say you have come here
to save us from massacre and to
organize revolution against the czar.
For your good will thank you.
''But we are organized for defense,
not for murder or battle. There has
been murder enough in Kishineff to-
night. Do you think" he continued
sternly, "that I would rise from prayer
not for ourselves alone but for all
mankind, for peace and righteousness
Ito Undue my hands with blood?
"And to you," he went on, address
ing himself to his compatriots, II
would say: Give up your schemes,
fight for your homes, but leave such
plots to others Ave." he continued
to Nikolai, though you have no ambi-
tions, though your aims are to protect
us only, we will have none of them"
He turned to the young leader.
There are many dead and wounded
in the streets tonight he said. "Send
your men to their homes; let their
women take blankets and go out to
the stricken, tend them and wash
their wounds"
/ looked at Nikolai, and perceived
that, all unconsciously, the rest had
withdrawn from him, so that he stood
alone, facing the man on the dais,
alone in that assemblage and alone in
his designs. He bowed his head up
on his breast. His ambition had gone
out as one blows out a fame. Slowly
he turned and made his way into the
street.

And he stalked out. leaving the old
general winking and leering in the
doorway, lighted candle in his hand
dropping grease all over his dressing
gown.
"And tomorrow my friends must be
warned" said Nikolai
But" / urged, "if you warn them
they will merely barricade their
houses or prepare to fly"
IT shall pass the word among the de-
tense committee" Nikolai answered.
.They have corps Of three hundred
men: they will be prepared"
On the next day Kishineff was
abIaze with excitement-a- shoulder,
! should rather say, for nobody dared
to speak openly. Yet the word had
already been passed around, for
Krushevan's newspaper teemed with
dark and cryptic sayings, and special
editions were being yelled upon the
streets.
"T,et all loyal subjects of the czar
keep their houses after nightfal dur
ing the next two weeks, read
Nikolai to me. "'And let them see
nothing and hear nothing. And let
them keep well away from the great
square :
And then next day the flight began.
The spectacle was pitiful. Men, wo-
men. children streamed out of the

Commenting on the fact that the
Tower building, located on lower
Broadway, the first so-called sky
scraper to be erected in New York
city, is soon to be RACED to make way
for a more modern structure, writer
In recent issue Of the Times states:
There is something pathetic as well
as distinctly American in the fact
that this building, though now only
twenty-four years old and illustrating
a method of construction that still
passes as new, should have been CON
demned to destruction on the ground
that, owing to its antiquity, all it's
tenants have left It" It is noted that
while the structure was but 12O feet
high, it was the first to receive the
name Of "sEVschaper" in New York
city.

Death Claims Devoted
Wife of President

WASHINGTON, August 6.-Mrs. Woodrow Wilson,
wife of the president of the United States, died at the
White house at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Death came af-
ter a brave struggle of months against Bright's disease
with complications
The president was completely unnerved by the shock
and his grief was heartrending. He bore up well under
the strain, however, and devoted himself to his daughters.
The end came while Mrs. Wilson was unconscious.
Her illness took a turn for the worse shortly before l
o'clock in the afternoon, and from then on she grew
gradually weaker.
Kneeling at the bedside at the end were the presi-
dent and their three daughters. DR.. Cary t. Gayson, u.
S. N, and a nurse were in the room, and just outside a
door were Secretary Meade and Francis b. Sayre, Mr..
Wilson's son-in-laws, and Mr.. Tumuty, his secretary.
Both houses of congress adjourned when Mrs. Will
sons death was announced, and for a brief time the
wheels of the government practically stopped, while
everyone paid respect to the loss of the president.
INFORMED END WAS NEAR.
The beginning of the end came at 10 o'clock this morn
ing when Dr.. E.. p. Davis of Philadelphia, who had been
called in for consultation, realized that the time for hope
had passed. He took the president into the red room of
the White house and there, in a broken voice, told him the
truth. Mr.. Wilson's face blanched, but he bore the shock
well. He was informed the end was only a question of
hours.
SINKS TO FINAL REST.
At 2 o'clock Mrs. Wilson was still conscious, but her
strength had almost departed and a few minutes later she
sank into the sleep of Inconsistencies from which she
never awoke. For three hours the president and his three
daughters gazed ~longingly into her eyes in the hope that
she might speak to them again, but she could not.
The sun was casting its long shadows from the Poto-
mac to the south grounds, coloring the fountains, gardens
and elms.
There was a hushed stiffness in the upper apartments
All eyes were turned toward the southwest corner of the
house.
Just at the hour of 5 death came. The president and
his daughters were in tears. Secretary Tumulty walked
slowly to the executive offices, his head bowed. Quietly he
announced to the correspondents that the end had come
Funeral arrangements have not yet been made. The
place Of burial will be either Rome, Ga, her birthplace, OF
Princeton, n. j., where the family had lived for twenty
five years.
