peared i'll, that his head was
thrown back and his eyes were
CLASSY.
M. Spencer Immediately hur-
ried into the outer corridor, call
ing for assistance as he neared
Mr.. Potter
On investigation it was found
that Judge Potter had expired and
the medical examiners Office was
notified. Upon the examiners ar
rival the body was taken to the
morgue where it now lies.
While no official statement was
made it is believed that the aged
judge died from natural causes.
Judge Potter's sudden death
caused considerable excitement in
the bank and upon the street, po-
lice being called to handle the ewes
curious crowd.
Miss Rich was Frustrated by the
shock of the sudden death and
stated that Judge Potter had ac-
companied her in town for the
purpose of doing several errands
necessary to his own business af-
fairs. They had dropped into the
bank while she transacted few
moments business of her own.
Miss Rich was removed to her
home at Dorchester suffering from
nervous shock.
A special despatch to the Rut-
land Herald from Dorchester,
Mass, carries the following story
of Miss Rich's romance.
A romance of "winter love
came to abrupt and tragic end
when Judge Edward c. Potter OF
st. Johnsbury, VT, was stricken IN
the Home Savings Bank this
morning and died in the arms of
Miss Charlotte B. Rich, whom he
was to wed next week
Miss Rich, with whom judge
Potter made his home at 10 Sal
combe street since the death OF
his wife two years ago, sobbed
out the story Of her broken To-
nance this evening.
Eve were to have been wed
next week." he said "All oul
plans were made, and we had
everything ready to renew oul
happiness together. He died in
my arms few moments after
we had entered the bank together
81 was tansacting some bust
ness with the trea urcr, when the
judge became weak and sat down
on a bench near the door. The
next thing | knew he was in his
death agony.
81 was with him to the end,
she cried, sobbing bitterly.
! 1t is expected that the funeral
of JudSe Potter will probably be
held Thursday afternoon in Ma

What the purposes Of government

TRIP
 TO SAVE LIFE OF TEACHER

SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.-Hero- ism of an extraordinary nature still displays itself in the North when oc- casion demands it. The heroes of Jack London's Yukon tales never experi- enced more danger or took more chances than the captain and crew of the schooner Herman which has just completed a hair-raising voyage from St. Lawrence Island, in the Boring Sea to Nome to save the life of a woman Details of the perilous floe smashing trip were made public today by the owners of the Herman in this city. The Herman had an board Mrs. A. Fallis, government school teacher on St. Lawrence Island who was dan- gerously i'll, and in need of medical attention. The nearest hospital and doctor were in Nome, and the spring breakup of the ice had not occurred Nevertheless the Herman set forth, breaking her way through the ice and using dynamite to force lead. The trip was successfully completed, and Mrs. Fallis is now in the hospital at Nome, where it is reported that she will recover.

BONUS BILL IS BEING FOUGHT IN THE SENATE

WASHINGTON, June 10.-The pro- cedure in the Senate to be followed in consideration of the Soldiers Bonus Bill continues to be a subject of ab- sorbing interest to this city of poli- ticians. After three attempts Sen ator McCumber, chairman of the Fiji nance Committee, succeeded in hay ing the bill placed on the calendar. The opposition to immediate consider ation is varied. Many Republican sen ators do not want anything attended to until the tariff bill has been passed. Democratic leaders say they will op- pose consideration until after the fall elections on the ground that the voters should be given a chance to express their sentoment on the measure. It was authoritatively stated today that no effort would be made to obtain con- sideration by the Upper House for at least ten days That the attempt then will be bitterly fought seems fore gone conclusion.

PITCHERS ARE
 GETTING DOWN
 TO REAL WORK

CHICAGO, June 10.-With the com ing of warmer weather, and the set ting down of the pitchers into regu- lar work, the slab artists of both major leagues are getting into their strides. The result is beginning to be apparent in the batting averages. AS the pitching improves the bat work shrinks. The heavy hitters are find ing it harder and harder to slug the pill into safe territory. The batting averages of George Sister, Ty Cobb, Roger Hornsby, and others, are stead fly getting lower and lower Sister still leads the American League bats men with an average of ,419, Stephen son of Cleveland is second with .416, and Ed Miller of Philadelphia third with 1885.
 In the older league, Hank Gowdy, catcher on the Boston Nationals, leads with a batting average of 1884, which is nine points more than his nearest rival Bigbee of Pittsburg has attained. Tied for second place with Bigbee is Hargraves of Cincinnati. Next comes Roger Hornsby of the St. Louis Car dinals and Griffith of Brooklyn, neck and neck with an average of .S74.

CARGO LIQUOR BEING SHIPPED
 INTO DAWSON

VICTORIA, B. C., June 10.-The de- voices of red liquor, and it's alcohol brothers and sisters, are making strenuous efforts to forestall the im- pending dry spell, that is now threat ening to parch the throats of all good men and true in the Canadian Yukon as a result of the order of Customs Collector Mcbride of Juneau, forbid ding the passage of liquor through American territory on and after the fifteenth of this month. Following a decision of the U. s. Supreme Court holding such transportation through American territory unlawful, even though the liquor was intended for a foreign country, the treasury depart ment issued regulations in accordance herewith. Consternation reigned among the drinking men of Dawson and the creeks when McBride's order was thoroughly understood by them. Distress calls were immediately sent forth and as result, the steamer Princess Louise, leaving tonight for Skagway, carries an immense cargo of liquor for the Yukon folks. It is ex- pected that she will easily reach Skag- way and get the shipment over the White Pass Road to Whitehorse be- fore the dead hand of MT. Volstead locks the door on the fifteenth.
