THOMAS B. EARLE.

Thomas B. Earle, lifelong resident
, OF Edgerton, one of its best known and
best loved citizens. died at Augustana
hospital, Chicago, Thursday, April 6.
itis health had not been the best for
several years, but his energy and OPP
timism had carried him through amidst
constant and absorbing business activ-
lty until few days before his death
when his condition. in the opinion of
his house physician, made it imperative
to seek surgical relief. and he was
taken to Augustana hospital. His con-
dition soon became critical; the sur
geons did not think it advisable to OPP
crate in his weakened state. He had
run his course and death came to claim
him.

Fatally Burned.

An explosion of kerosene can used
to kindle the fire in the kitchen stove
resulted in the untimely death of Car
| Nicholson early Monday morning. The
explosion also caused fire which sut-
ted the kitchen part Of the Pat Quigley
house situated across the track from the
sheep feeding station. Mr.. Nicholson
and family were renters of the Quigley
property and had moved there last Feb
ruary. They were we'll settled and
were getting things in shape to begin
springs work. Mr.. Nicholson was first
to arise Monday morning, and he placed
the kindling wood in the stove. He
had always been very careful about the
use of oil to make fire, and often
warned his family against it. Just why
he poured oil on this morning is beyond
finding out. There must have been
live Goals which ignited while the con-
tents of the can were being poured on.
1t was kerosene, not gasoline, as was
enormously reported at first. The ex-
plosion threw the oil all over the poor
man, burning him most frightfully.
His wife called for help, the doctor
came, and the man was quickly taken
to Lockwood hospital where everything
possible was done for him to relieve his
suffering, but his life could not be
saved. He was fully conscious to the
last and passed away about 1000 in the
forenoon.
The fire department did excellent
work. In three minutes the new fire
truck was on its way; it negotiated the
slippery hill past ST. Johns church, and
plowed through the soft mud road from
the railway crossing to the Ouigley
house, very bad stretch, without any
difficulty. A thousand feet of hose was
tralled from the nearest hydrant, and
the fire was quickly put out. Chem
icals were used to protect the main
part of the house, and there is practic-
ally no fire and water damage To the
house outside of the kitchen which is
practically ruined. The performance
of the new engine, and that under the
most adverse circumstances. is mat
ter of satisfaction to the citv and TO
the men who handled it.

An English Tribute to Wood.

The Star recently mentioned the fact
that in his world tour, which ended
shortly before his fatal seizure. Lord
Northcliffe visited the Philippines and.
after investigating conditions there.
commercial, agricultural, financial and
political, gave high praise to the work
Of Governor General Wood. and ex-
pressed the opinion that American
rule should continue for while.
This has now been supplemented by
the Manila correspondent of the Lon
don Times, who, in letter to that
leading Northcliffe publication. goes
over the same ground at length and
closes with this warm tribute to Gen.
Wood:
Before his departure from the
United States as head Of the Philip
pine mission Gen. Wood was elected
to the presidency of the University
Of Pennsylvania, and recently the uni
versity has urged him to take over
his presidential duties as soon as pos
sible. Americans In the Philippines
are U nimous in their desire to re-
tain the services of Ger. Wood. and q
few weeks ago, through the American
CkamO per or commerce, tney petltlOneQ
the President to make it possible for
the general to remain at his post at
Manila until his reconstructive poll
cies have been put IN force. 1t can
hardly be disputed that If there Is
one available man who possesses that
combination of courage and patience.
experience and ability, forceful per-
suasiveness and untarnished prestige
required to unravel the Philippine
tangle and to guide the Filipino peo-
pie along the paths of true progress
to eventual prosperity and political
security. that man is the American
soldier-statesman Gen. Leonard Wood.
Those Filipino politicians who are
agitating for immediate independence
for the islands sometimes suggest in
a veiled way that we put too. high
an appraisement on our performances
in the archipelago and are mistaken in
the belief that our presence is essen
tial at this time to stability and pros
perity. But here is praise from an
outside source which cannot be disre-
garded, and which supports our con-
tention both as to our record in the
islands and to the character of the
man now representing us there.
