1 llosto, Oct. 7. Dr. OllTer Wendell Holmes
I led at his city residence, 20(1 Beacon street,
I this afternoon. About ten days ago ho returned
fnm his country residence at Beverly. He was
I nnt In hts usual health, but his genial
I homnr never deserted Mm, ami this tempera-
mrnl Minded all but Ms most Intimate
I friends I" the foot that he was fast approaching
B death. As soonj aa he returned nls family de
ft, elded What It was best to call hts favorite physl-
elan. Dr. Charles I. Putnam.
The, Doctor found his patient very weak.
Nymutoms of heart failure were noticeable, hut
depirfie this fact the Doctor hoped to preserve
Dr. Holmes's life. But the family physician
falVed, and finally to-day summoned the family
and friends.
Despite their haste the end came before they
cMild all arrive. The poet's son, Judgo O. W.
folmcs, Jr.. the man whom his father sought
all about the Held of Chnncetlorsvllle, and
through the hospitals of Virginia, was present
irlth Ms wife and the pbslclan wlien Dr.
Holmes died.
Almost his last word was n delicate Jest, not
, light nor Irreverent, but kindly and easy, to
soothe tho pain of his relatives.
It wss 1.45 1. M. when ho died. Tho end was
painless, and It was almost Impossible to tell
the exact Instant of dissolution. The news
spread quickly, and messages of regret and ex
pressions of condolence followed soon.
The arrangements for the funeral have not
been planned ret. but It Is believed that It will
l private, and will bo hold from Kings' Chapel
At noon on Wednesday.
Oliver Wendell Holmes was born In Cam
bridge, Mass., on Aug. an. 1K0H. Ills fatlierwas
the Rev. Ablel Holmes, a clergyman of Cam
bridge, and an historian, who is said to have
mads tlo first attempt at writing a history of
this country In hi " American Annals."
Hisxicnt-grundfather was John Holmes, one
of th'iold Puritan stock, who settled In Wood-
ntne'r. Conn., about 1080. Oliver Wendell
, Holmes Inherited his father's literary Instinct
ami v ery curly liegan to write verse. At college
he Wamo the editor of the college tnagaxlne,
Jil at tho uge of ill, tho year after his
as iraduatloii, th saltation over the announce-
i xnent of tho intended destruction of the old
svnr frigate Constitution began and he wrote
the well-known poem, "Old Ironsides." which
wss published in the Boston Atlrcrtlttr. Ho
became famous at once. Ho had struck a popu-
! Mr note, and the tide of publlo opinion set
strongly against the destruction of the vessel.
As a boy at Phillips's Academy Holmes trans
lated the .Kne Id." After graduation from col
lege he turned his attention at first to law, hut
never practised, and later took up the study of
medicine. He spent three years In hospital
study, Tand practised In Edinburgh and Paris,
and. (n 130 he received his medical degree. In
that year he published his first volume of
ptfins.

profession, but early mado literature his diver
sion, and aa a poet and author became known to
the people. lie accepted the professorship of
.anatomy and physiology at Dartmouth Col I ego
In ia:i!l, and later practised roedlclno In Uoston,
k hers h married Amelia Lee Jackson, daughter
of Judge Charles Jackson of the Massachusetts
Supremo Court, by whom ho had two sons and a
k daughter.
C In 1M7 Dr. Holmes was mado professor of
i knatomyat Harvard, a chair In which ho con
tinued until IRS'J. when be resigned, and was
' mads professor emeritus. President Kllot paid
Mils tribute to his skill t "Then are 3,000 men
fhroughout New England who will remember
f ' r. Holroea through their lives and transmit to
Mielrxulldrrn the memory of him as a teacher
f exact science."
Dr.iIInlmes wrote forty-two works nn medical
-ubjtta and lived to seo many of his early Ideas
if medicine, which at first met with
condemnation, accepted by the leading
hyslolsns of the world. Hpeaktng of this
recently llr. Holmes recalled the storm
'if indlgnntlnn which was raised by his famous
vplgram that If all the medicine In the world
vre thrown Into the sea It would be all the
wtter for mankind and all the worse for the
ashes. And thou he laughed quietly as he ro
marked that now most of the profession practl
eally agreed with him.
In 18.17, when the Atlantic Monthly was
started, Lowell asked Dr. Holmes to contribute

ScrtUur't Ucpuint. ""Over the Teacups," which
appeared a few years ago, was mads the occa-
slo i of the announoemsnt by Dr. Holmes that It
wyild probably be ths last of the series.

An energetlo cltlten bounded breathless Into
the Court House at Uylran ptace and Knst 131st

a mad plunge for the telephone box,
"Hollo! hello I" ho bawled as he twisted tho

Headquarters heard little more, but seeing
that the call came from tho building In which

that there was a riot there and that the prison

Then the ticker In the Kast 130th street pollen

Jamming their helmets down and tightening
their belts, thoy crashed through the crowd at

That corner Is one of the densest crowded
spots In the, city at il o'tdotk on Sunday night,
and the pell-mell onslaught of the ikjIIco caino
like an explosion. Men were pushed aside, boys
were bow led over as the platoon crushed on, in

"What's the matter?" asked a stnld citizen
as the crowd swept by.
"Hell's broke loose" "Ten men killed by

All this the staid cltlren heard with bulging
yes. Then, w Ith a yell, ho Joined In the race.

Baltimore, Oct. 7. Cardinal Gibbons
preached at tho cathedral this morning, and
vigorously opposed woman suffrage. His ser
mon was on the glory of womanhood and the
duties of Christian women. He said :
" To-day we honor the queen of saints, our
blessed lady. She Is the great model for all
women, w hethcr as maiden, mother, or wife,
I think every unprejudiced historian will admit
that woman Is Indebted to Mary for the high
position, both In social and domestto life, whloh
Is hers to-day. The Church follows the teach
ings of 8t- Paul that woman Is equal to man
when ho declares that flod makes no distinc
tion as to nationality, race, or sex. It seems to
me fearful to contemplate what would have
been the condition of society to-day If llr had
not, been for tl restraining, sanctifying, and
purifying Influance of woman. I speak not of
the community woman, so called, Imt of ftmaVj
who tlfoln lira family relation which God Him-"
self has founded. Evrry one of you have a mis
sion to perform In your day and generation.
Yon can be apostles preaching In your respect
ive households.
"It Is truo you cannot celebrate mass, and yet
rou can be priests In another and broader sense,
t Is true woman does not to-day exercise the
right of suffrage. She cannot vote and I am
heartily glad of It. I hope the day will never
come when she can vote, and If the right Is
? ranted her I hope sho will regret it, evon
hough there are some misguided women who
think they want It. Best assured. If woman en
tered politics she would be sure to carry away
with her some of tho mud and dirt
of political contact. She, too, would lose
some ot tho Influence which she now
exerts. The proper sphere for woman
la home, the proper place for her to reign Is In
the horns circle. A ruler of Oreeco said! 'I
command Athens. Athens rules the world, and
my wife rulen me; therefore she rules the world ?'
" So nowadays you men control the United
States with your votes, and your wives con
trolling you they rule this country. Above all
things take care of the home life properly. If
every Christian mother, daughter, and sister
looked after religion In the home ihere would
1mi less need to Insist on religious instruction In
the schools."

'His Park, nijou. and Star theatres In Brook
lyn have been for the last two wicks thronged
with folks haling nogtis orders for seats, made
out by eninebody who signs himself A. ('. BIoss.
The orders were marked O, K. and were coun
tersigned "J. if, D." or "Duvnlc." All tho
writing was dono by one person.
Only one Innn has been ndmltted on one ot
these orders, lto got Into tho Park Theatre last
Monday because there was a new loorkoecr on
duty. Although hundreds have been turned
away, they still keep coming.
In no case, so far ns the theatre people know,
has anybody been swindled out of money. Homo
of the victims haie been much annoyed, as tho
crank also ordered large quantltlcsof goods sent
to the different playhouses C. O. D., where he
said he would get them.
Ono of tho first to present an order nt the Park
Theatre was Motonnnn Hooley of the Klatbush
avenue trolley line. His order called for four
seats for last Tuesday eienlng's performance.
He came dressed In his best, with his sweet
heart, mother, and sister. With the air ot n
man who has a pull, ha presented his order at
tho box office
When the clerk Informed him that alxmt
fifty other people had been thero that day with
the same kind ot order, the motonnnn luaved a
sigh, looked nt tho bright faces of his expectant
companions, reluctantly pulled out a bill, and
paid for four teats.
Manager Walter Sinn asked Hooley about tho
man, and tho motorman said that the order
writer, who Is apparently about thirty jcarsot
age, hailed his car early on Monday evening in
front of the City Hall, and, as he got on the
front platform, whispered to the moterman that
ha was in a great hurry, and that If thu car
could be made to reach Flatbush avenuo m ten
minutes he would give Hooley nn order for two
seats at the Park Theatre.
The man said he was In a great hurry. As the
usual time between the City Hall nnd Flatbush
avenuo Is only six minutes, the motorman had
an easy Job.
The passenger wore a brown Suit of fashion'
able cut, a brow n derby hat, and hod a flowing
moustache. After the car got to Flatbush tho
stranger handed to the motorman a written
order for two seats.
Seeing that good things came so easy, the
motorman asked for two more seats, explaining
that he hnd a largo family. The young man
took back the paper and replaced It with an or
der for four seats. He had the order written
out In ink and wrote the recipient's name in
lead pencil in the corner.
Wheu the oung man got off tho car he said
that ho hoped the motorman would enjoy the
performances.
On Tuesday night the man walked Into n Ful
ton street cigar More, and, after purchasing a
package of cigarettes and pa) lug for them, ask
ed where the City Hall was, remarking that ho
was a stranger In Hrookljn.
The proprietor of the store showed him the
way. Then he said In a casual way that ho
was managing tho Peter F. Daly company play
Ing at the 1'ark Theatre, and had never been In
Brooklyn before.
The Introduction led to a conversation. In
I which the two discussed thfntrlc.il topics. Fi
nally the 'young man Invited the cigar denier
to the theatre. He tossed out three orders for
two seats each and said "Comedown ami see
1jBj io.ure ttiu will like the show." ,
x nwnjrart'an,-WitnaI-nr:iev-CerlaUiTy. no
would go to tne show and take his family alone.
Ho selected three of his finest cigars frgm tho
cose and offered them to tho young miQi.hut
the young man waiedthem aside, saying that
he had smoked too much lately, and could
not accept them, as his doctor had ordered him
to glvo up smoklhg. He would nnt lw per
suaded to accept anything, and left, saj lug thn
tickets were a mere trine, and should not lw
mentioned.
The experience of the cigar dialer and motor
man Is almost similar to that of perhaps !)3n
people, all of whom have been bothered morn or
less, but none of whom hiu been swindled out of
money, Tho young man must have worked day
and night at his peculiar occupation to halo dis
tributed so many onlersdurluglhe last week.
Tho order bearers were so numerous at tho
Park Theatre and w ero so loud In their expres
sions of disappointment that Manager Sinn re
yorted the matter to the police on Wednesday,
utt as he was leal Ing the theatre on thstday
an old Long Island fanner entered the lobby,
dragging a nack of potatoes In each hand.
He dropped the hags In front of the astonished
manager, ran nut to a w agon standing In front,
unloaded a barrel of apples, and began to w heel
It serous tho sidewalk.
The doors of the theatre were open for tho
matinee, and auditors were going In. They
looked In astonishment nt the man. Manager
Sinn ran out and asked what It all meant, llo
stopped the farmer half way across the walk
and said, " You can't bring that stuff In here;
this Is no prnilslnn store I"
"That's all right," shouted tho shrill voire ot
the farmer's w Ife. who sat an a seat of the farm
wagon which stood at tho curb. "Them things
was bought by Mr. Emerson down the Btreet
here, who wanted them delliered C, O. D. at
this theatre,
"The chickens is out herein the wagon, and
the ducks and sweet potatoes wo can I bring
until to-morrow: but we brought what wo got
because we wanted to use these tickets for this
here matinee this afternoon."
The woman then thrust her hand deep In a
big leather bag and brought out two orders for
single seats and held them up.
"Them's not the only tickets we gptl" (he ex
claimed. Then she dug down decpjlirthe bag
again and fished out tw o more. "These are for
tickets at another theatre, and we are going to
night before we go home."
All this time the old farmer stood In a dared
way holding the barrel and staring at Manager
Hlnn. When tho old cnuplu were told that tho
orders were bogus, and that there was nn Mr.
Kmerson waiting for the goods, they hurried
away sadly and drove otf to the IIIJou Theatre,
only to be Informed that the orders were no
good.
Many saloonkeepers were fooled. One named
Hogamwho has a place nn Fourteenth street
and Seventh avenue, Brooklyn, presented three
orders for double seats made out by Moss and
contertlgnrd Duvale, which Is thought to bu tho
man's right name.
Hogan said the man would not act ent even a
drink for orders for tickets. He ordered and
paid for his own drinks.
At Duliols's Flatbush nvenue shirt store the
man, after selecting a lot of fine linen and order
ing It to be sent C. 0. 1). to a fictitious address,
Sve the clerks there a lot of orders and left
email liapp).
A Mrs. Brown, whoso husband runt a store In
Fifth avenue. Brooklin, called at the purk
Theatre on Saturday afternoon with orders for
seats. She said that the young man had Just
ordered lift worth of goods from her hushaud.
Detectiio Hey nolds was put on tho case when
It was reported to the police. He couldn't get
a warrant for the man. With Inspector Mc.
Keller he went to the District Attorney, who
said that If the man had swindled nobody bu
could not Issue a warrant.
Judge Walsh also ald he couldn't Issue a
warrant. Then the detettlve decided to arrest
the man. If he (ould find him, for vagrancy.
The man was traced toa boarding house at 1.18
Wllloughby street, where he had engaged table
board. He was looklug for a room and was re
ferred to a house across the street, where hu en.
gtged one,
lie ste two meals and skipped, leaving his bill
unpaid. He was not traced further. His orders
and goods continued to come In at the different
theatres.

Pout Towssesp, Wash., Oct, 7,-The death
of Capt. Charles A, Sawyer last night recalls
the most terrible loss of life and property In the
annals of Pacific coast shipping. Saw) er was a
retired sea captain, and was In 1875 In com
mand of the bark Orpheus. On Nor, 4 of that
ear, while oft Cape Flattery, bound fur British
Columbia, his vessel was run into by the
steamer Pacific, plying between Puget Sound

James Kartell, a stonecutter, S!4 years old, of
2J0 East 108th street, had an experience early
yesterday morning which he will not forget for
matiyadny. After narrowly escaping having
both legs broken, and n Ith the greater part of
tho skin scraped off his hod), ho got file days on
the Island from Justlco Slmms In the Essex
Market Police Court. But these were only a
part of his unusual oil venture.
On .Saturday night Kartell, who Is a slight
man, started out to enjoy the proceeds of his
week's work. Ho drifted down Thlnl avenue,
visiting tho saloons on the way, until the Idea
struck Jilm that tho night would lie incomplete
without a stroll on the Bowery. Holioardedn
down-tSwti elevated train, and, alighting at
Canal street, started north afoot, stopping at
the saloons and concert halls. At A o'clock
yesterday morning he found himself lu the
neighborhood of Fourth street without n cent
In his pocket, hut v cry drunk. He remembered
that he 111 ed somewhere In Harlem, and that
tho traniortatlon lines were not maintained as
charitable Institutions, He searched his pockets
neieral times. In tho hope of finding a stray
nickel. Then lie braced up nnd accosted a be
lated pedestrian. Tho latter had heard about
persons m ho didn't have inr fare, and he pushed
the tottering stone cutter Into the gutter.
When Kartell picked himself out of tho
dirt he snt down on tho curbstone and
waited for au Idea. The rumbling ot n train
overhead brought an Inspiration. Ho told tho
lullie ) estcrday that his Idea struck him as be
ing so brilliant that ho didn't remember exactly
what happened afterword. Ho remembered
climbing up something, then there was a con
futed sound In his ears, nnd he experienced tho
sensation of falling down a well. When he
tried to turn around something reached out and
iiookcu onto ins clothes. Ills shins ached
dreadfully, mid tho shock of the fall had started
his nose bleeding. Then he remembered that he
had a volco, and began to yell.
Policeman Smith of the East Fifth street sta
tion, whu.wae standing near the centre of the
block between Fourth and Fifth street, had
Just noticed by tho Cooper I'nlon clock that it
w as a quarter past seven, w hen he heard n faint
shout coming from the v Iclnlty of Fourth street.
No ono was In sight, nnd thinking the noise
came from some doorway, the policeman started
slowly along his biat.
"Ofil let me out, let mo out!" cried a voice
directly In front of him. Tho policeman con
cluded that something was going nnand stepped
into the shadow of an elcvatrdirnllrnad pillar.
Along tho line of the Bowery tho nlllars are
alsiut eighteen feet high. They aro formed lrf
strips of heavy Iron bolted together at tho four
corners. TliaKpaio between tho edges of tho
plllar-whlch Is about eighteen Inches wide Is
loticrtd with nheaiy lattice work of Iron. The
strips that form tho lattice work aro about
eight Indies from one another. At the top of
the pillar, where it Joins the framework sup
porting tho ties, there Is an opening twenty
Iiit lies w ldo h"tcn broad. The ties aro three or
four feet almve the top of the pillars. Should a
person fall between tho ties and Into the open
ing at tho top of the pillar he would go clear to
tho bottom, unless ho were icr) stout, as the
space Inside the pillar It eighteen Inches square.
The pillar Itelitud which the policeman hail
dodged was on tho northeast corner of Fourth
street, Dlreitly across the street was a second
pillar, and looking toward. It Iho policeman
thought he saw something moving Inside the
lattice work. The next- moment there came,
Oh7 Mr. Policeman, pleAHu- let mo null I'll"
net or do It again: honestly I won't."
"Who the devil are jou. any way?" shouted
tho nstonlnbcd policeman, as he run across tho
street.
" I'm Kartell- Kartell of Harlem," said the
loUc; "mi legs are all smashed up, and 1 want
to get nut."

trousers had taught on a projecting Inilt. rip

battered shins.
Becoi ercd f rem his astonishment, the police
man blew his nhlstlc for assistance and started
on the run for theiabloiarsuppl) shed at Sixth
street and the Bon ery. There lie got u long roiie
and pulley, and. aocoiiipapled bi half n doen
men, hurried back to tho Fourth street pillar.
He was joined there h) i'ollcemin Cooney. who
had answered the call nf the whistle. Altera
consultation It was decided that the only way
to pet the man out of his strange prison was to
pull him out the nay ha got In.
Some one got a ladder, and the two policemen
climbed upon the trestlo work under the ties.
Then they fastened tho pulley and low.
ered tho repo down until It touched
tho man's hands. At this point an un
foreseen dlftlculty arose. Tho prisoner's
fingers were so stilt that lie couldn't hold the
rope. Flnall) Smith made a sllpmsiio and threw
It over the outstretched urms. The men nn the
sidewalk hauled on tho free end nf tho rope, and
with much tearing of i loth and loud ) ells from
the unfortunate Kartell he was dragged from
his narrow quarters.
A crowd hail collected, and some ono rang for
an ambulance. When ono arrived f rem Belle
vue Hospital tho surgeon said that the stoue
cutler might be taken tn the station house, as
he was not seriously Injured, When arraigned
In the Esex Market Polite Court on a charge of
intoxication he said that, huvlng no money to
ride, he bad climbed up the pillar. Intending to
board a lusting train.
" Pi e hail about enough of It already. Judge,"
said he, dolefully, and 1 ou ought to let ma dawn
easy,"
"1 guess you've caused tho police $5 worth of

milled to, although many new ttunanlet are
being formed to build railroads, open up new
mining properties, and exploit other Industries,
needing a large amount of ready capital.
Not only haie the banks plenty of money to

that the hhh rates of exchange on gold has
