SAVIOR OF PARIS".
IS CALLED BY DEATH

Paris, May 28.-General Gallieni, un.
til recently French minister of war,
and popularity known as the savior of
Paris" is dead at Versailles.
His daring stroke against the Ger
mans early in the war not only had
much to do with saving Paris from
capture, but marked a turning point
in the European struggle.
Advancing swiftly toward the French
capital the Germans had reached the
northern outskirts, where General
Manoury attacked the German flank
under Won Kluck.
The Germans we're reinforced and
Manoury, in desperation, appealed to
General Gallieni, who had been ap-
pointed military governor of Paris
only a few days previously.
Gallieni moved swiftly. BY telephone
he reQuisitioned every taxicab in Paris,
loaded them with a from Tunis,
who had just reached Paris, and sent
them dashing out to Manoury's aid.
Gallienis taxicab army saved the
day. The Germans were then rolled
back and beaten at the Marine.

OPERATION IS FUTILE
Death Due to Infection Caused
by Hemorrhoids.

St. Paul May 29.-James J. Hill,
railroad builder and financier and the
best known man in the Northwest,
died at $50 a. m. today.
Mr.. Hills illness dated from May II,
when he returned to his home suffer
ing from a bad chill, the outgrowth
of hemorrhoids. On May % a slight
infection of the bullock was noticed,
the result of the hemorrhoids. This
infection spread rapidly and two op-
erations failed to retard it's progress.
From this time on Mr.. Hill lost
strength rapidly and hope for recov-
cry was abandoned some hours before
the end came.
Mr.. Hill would have been seventy
eight years of age in September and
although his illness and operation
were such that a younger person might
have recovered, his age initiated
against the shock of the operation and
the extent of the infection.
Mr.. Hills wife and children were
present at the end, together with DR..
Herman M. Biggs Of New York and
Rev. Thomas J. Gibbons, vicar general
Of the Catholic diocese of St. Paul.
Entire Nation Mourns.
The entire nation bowed in sadness
at the loss of MI. Hill. Soon after
the news Of his death had spread
throughout the United States tele-
grams of sympathy and sadness were
received by Louis w. Hill.
The inflow of messages completely
swamped. Mr.. Hill and two secretaries
were named to receive the kilograms
and file and copy them.
Newspaper extras from New York
to San, Francisco carried the news of
the death. The kilograms gave an in
dication of the v%astness of the terri
tory in which Mr.. Hills death was
keenly felt.
In st. Paul flags were hoisted at
half staff. Groups of citizens discuss
ed the loss to st. Paul and the ma
ton. The part that MI. Hill played
in the development of the Northwest
was a ~favorite theme. His efforts in
behalf of farmers, his endowments for
educational purposes and the magni-
tude Of his conceptions and accom-
plishments were mentioned.
