tending the sessions of the third an
nual meeting of the “American As
sociation of Teachers of Spanish,”

ber of Spanish dignitaries there, in
cluding the Spanish Ambassador to

250.000.

SIR WILLIAM OSLER
PNEUMONIA VICTIM
I
Noted Physician Who Said
Man’s Usefulness Ended At
GO. Dies In Oxford
LONG AT JOHNS HOPKINS ,
i
Hr YA illiam Osier, regius professor ‘
<>t medicine at Oxford University. ‘
England, died yesterday at his home j
in Oxford, of pneumonia, according
to a cablegram. Th- news spread
rapidly over Baltimore, and among
physicians, especially those with j
whom ho had been associated when,
he was professor of the practice and f
principles of. juiedieine at the Johns ‘
liopkins Medical School, there were
many expressions of regret and of
grief I*r Osier was the man who J
advanced the theory that a man pass- ;
c 1 his period of usefulness at 60
years, and advocated chloroforming
at that age. i(
Dr. Osier's death was not unexpect- J
cd. He had been seriously ill for
'some time and a couple of weeks ago.
vor 1 was received in Baltimore that
he had become worse and his death ,
might 1 e expected at any minute. A
lev days afterward cable advices ro- ,
ported that he was improving, ami ,
hope for his recovery was stimulated ,]
when, on Christmas Day. a message
was received at the Johns Hopkins s
Hospital from him in which lie seat -y
Christmas greetings to all his old
friends and stated that he was “mak- v
itig a good light.” The next"’news d
ul out him his friends received was
the announcement of his death. 3
I> r. Osier was regarded as the n
ablest physician in the world by those p
who knew him bes. and who were n
familiar with his achievements. And j,
the greater part of his development p
occurred in Baltimore. It was from 0
that city that his reputation spread 0
and there is no physician who stud- y
led at the Johns Hopkins Medical ; p
School in the period between 1899
and 1904 and had the privilege of
receiving instruction from Dr. Osier,
but who counts himself among the a
.most fortunate of men. For in ad- b

BURGLAR ENTERS HOUSE
Attempt To Rob Home Of Mrs.
M. A. Miller Frustrated
AWAKENED BY LIGHT
„ Shortly after midnight last night, an
attempt to rob the home of Mrs Mar
garet A. Miller, 234 West street, was
made by someone unknown. Mrs. Mil
ler. who was asleep in her room, was
awakened by someone hashing a tl..sh
light in her face. ’She screamed for
her son who sleeps in an upper room,
and he thinking his mother was ill.
went to her relief as soon as he count
sufficiently arouse himself to realize
he was needed.
Mrs. Miller's screams doubtless
frightened oil' the burglar, for there
was a scrambling in the dark and
someone made their way downstairs
and out through the cellar. it is j
thought the would-be thief had entered
in this way.
Tracks were traced of a man's foot
prints in the snow around the house,
and there were wet footprints through
the hall and leading upstairs from the
cellar.
So far as known nothing was stolen,
and a thorough search of the house re
veals no articles missing i: is the
opinion of Mrs. Miller that the man
must have hidden ni the cellar when
.Ur brother-in-law, Oliver Miller, went '
down to fix the furnace for the night. I
although if there, the intruder had
secreted himself ami was not seen by 1
Mr. Miller.
Mrs. Miller notified the police, two!
jf whom went to the scene and mad*!
an investigation, without result.
Mrs Miller says there lias been aj
suspicious lockinng man lurking In the
neighborhood for several days, the!
neighbors say, a stranger to the com
munity. He was seen yesterday morn
ing at a o'clock. He wears a dnrk
tirown overcoat and slouch hat, and is
>f toll, slender build. There is rumor
>f , tte.npts to enter other houses on
West street extended, |hut no report of
his has been made to the police.

amounted to ov*r an inch, was censed
