Both CurIey and Defeated Candi-
didate 7. J.Kenney, Democrats.

Boston, JAN 13.-Congressman
James NJ. Curley was elected mayor
today by majority of 5000 votes over
Thomas j. Kenny, president of the
city council Of total of $4,000 votes,
polled on the coldest day Of the WIN
ter, the victorious candidate received
43,309 and President Kenny had 81 $50.
Congressman Curleys election to a
year-term as mayor is the latest
step in a continuous political career
which began as city councilman in
1900 Since that time he has been
elected suecessively to the Massachu-
setts House of Representatives, the
Board of Aldermen, the city council
and to Congress, where ne is now serv-
ing his second term In 1908, Mr.. Cur
ley was convicted by jury in the fed
eral court of conspiring to defraud the
government by impersonating another
man at q civil service examination.
He served a sentence of two months
in the Charles street Jail without in
terruption to his political career.
Both Mr. Kenny and Mr.. Curley are
Democrats in national politics although
the election was decided without polit-
ical designation and the Democratic
voters in the city were divided by the
two candidates. President Kenny in
addition to the support of most of
the Democratic ward chairmen. had
the endorsement of the Citizens Mu-
nicipal League. partisan organ

are PR minent and he was backed also
by local Republican leaders.

George F. Baker Takes Step in
Ending Inter-locking Directorates.

ignation from the Chase bank was
construed in Wall Street as being in
line with his decision, recently an
nounced to reduce the number of these
directorships as rapidly as possible.
When J. P. Morgan announced re-
Gently his retirement from the boards
of a number of important corporations
including the New Haven and New
York Central Roads, in response to the
growth of public sentiment against in
ter. locking directorates, Mr.. Baker said
he had been seeking for some time to
cut down the number of directorships
he held. His resignation from the
Chase Bank was regarded as the first
step in this direction.
John j. Mitchell, president of the IL
linois Trust & Savings Bank of Chi
cago, retired from the board of the
First National and was elected to Mr..
Bakers place on the Chase board.
Francis L. Hine, president of the
First National and George F. Baker,
Jr, a vice president, remain on the
board of the Chase National.
Although there were numerous
changes in the dictatorship of other
national banks at their annual meet
ings today, none of the partners of ].
P. Morgan & Co., who are directors in
several of them, resigned. Several
banks eignified their intention of enter
ing the Federal Reserve system but
the directors of one-the Bank of Eu-
rope--decided not to do so. Some of the
largest took no action on the question
today.

Interesting Gossip Concerning
Matters Of Interest to Maine.
"Pure Leather and Pure Fabric Bill"
And Its Opposition.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 13.-(Spe-
ciaD-Maine folks, with official duties
at Washington, are now trekking in
this direction. The days of the Con-
gressional vacation must give way to
industry and application at the Capt.
tol. Ever since last April, the chief
effort has been toward passing some
one special measure in which Presi-
dent Wilson was particularly interest
ed. Now there is to be full and fair
opportunity to take up those things in
which senators and representatives
are especially interested. A very
great number of these have to do with
local matters. Much time has been
spent in paving the way for this legis-
lation, in which only certain localities
are concerned.
The Capitol will hum for while
with the activities of Congressman in
having these little bills attended to.
There must be committee meetings
and favorable reports before the bills
can appear upon the calendars of SEN
ate and House and thus be started on
the road to considera ion. During the
long summer and autumn much of this

that during extra sessions of Congress

which an extra session is assembled.
Then there are other good and suf-
ficient reasons why much of this
smaller work should go over till Con-
gress is upon it's long. regular session.
Maine has not a great deal 10 ask in

Cry Of Help via Wireless from the

--Strikes Lodges in Binding BIiz-

Halifax, N. s., Jan. ia wireless
cry for help from the Royal Mail
steamer Cobequid, fast on the dreaded
ledgcs of Grand Manan, just before
dawn today followed five hours later
by final flicker of her radio saying
that the ship was filling, has caused
grave concern for the 120 persons on
board
The steamer was bound for ST. John,
n. B., from the British West Indies in
command of Capt. Hawson. She had
crew of 102 men, number of second
class passengers and the following in
the first class cabin:
L. S. Navarro. L. Botta, w. c. Zol-
ler, Mrs. Zeller and child. She was
completing her first round trip on this
route, and had called at Bermuda, but
most of her passengers were from
points south of here. Whether the CO.
becuid had survived an all-day batter
ing by hurricane seas and would hold
together until one of a fleet of nearly
a dozen rescue boats could reach her,
was matter of increasing hourly anx-
iety tonight.
Up to dark no trace of the distressed
vessel had been found on the east shore
of the Bay of Fundy, where she was
first reported aground. Nor could a
glimpse be seen through the vaper
which shrouded the west side of Grand
Manan on one of whose numerous
Lodges it was believed she rested.
The Cobequid was formerly the
steamer Goth and had been pressed
into service from Maratime provinces
to the tropics. She sailed from Hail.

Text l.why will ye dief,

Te1ti ewhy will ye diet" Eek.
1851.
THIs question. propounded by
Ezekiel, one Of IsraeTs greatest
prophets. is worthy the considera-
ton Of all men-especially those who
are walking in the way that leads to
death, as were the Israelites at the
time this question was asked
There are but few persons, compared
with the many who are in the world,
who prefer death to life. In fact I be-
neye all, whose minds and bodies are
IN normal condition. prefer TO live
rather than die I think may safely
affirm that in the case Of all suicides
something has occurred to reduce the
mind. or body, or both TO an abnormal
condition. Some great cloud Of sor-
row had settled down upon the mind
or physical ailment the body until all
hope Of future good IN this life was
taken away. and hence the rash act
Man in his normal state desires to
live Life is good and in our normal
state we love il and are lOath to give
It up.
But this question Of the prophet was
not asked concerning physical death
If 1t had been the answer would have
people Of Israel In responce TO the
prophets question: why will ye die7"
they could have answered: we die be-
cause we cannot help IL. We die be-
cause II has been appointed by the
creator that all must die. It's a matter
over which we have no control: If we
had we would exercise it We would
drive the grim monster from our land
Never again permit him 10 cross out
threshold and rob US Of our loved ones
The Spiritual Death.
No, II was not concerning physical
or temporal death that the prophet
spake, but concerning spiritual or ever
lasting death. That death which is
called death. not because Of the uncon-
seriousness OF its victims. for they are
conscious, but because Of the impassa-
bic gulf which separates them from
God heaven and all. that is pure, good
and noble. That death which Christ
calls the second death in contradistInc-
ton TO the first or physical death.
which all must meet. That death that
shall hold the lost soul with relent-
less grasp in regions Of outer dark
ness while fiery pillows Of regret. re-
morse and despair shall sweep over
them in endless succession II was
that death which Ezekiel mad in mind
when he said in the language Of the
text: Why viii ye die2"
But the question Of Ezekiel Is lust
as appropriate today as it was then.
Just as applicable to the people OF
earth today who are walking in the
way Of sin, as it was to the people Of /
Israel $500 years ago. Indeed I think !
/ may solely say that the question is
even more applicable now than then.
