Special: As quietly and poacefully as he had lived for fourscore years Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale died at his picturesque home in Roxbury early Thursday morning, and a life devoted to the betterment of mankind came to a close. The revered chaplain of the United States Senate simply took to his bed. gathered his wife, son and. daughter about him. and in a few hours passed to his Maker, whose work he has carried on with a faithfulness that made him one of the most beloved clergymen in the United States. His death was a great shock to his friends throughout the country, few knowing that he was In other than robust health. As an author Dr. Halo's fame rests on his short stories, such as "The Man Without a Country;" as an Instigator of the social uplift, the work of the two great organizations, the Lend-a-Hand Clubs and the King's Daughters, will always add to his renown; as a minister and pastor, his half century In the pulpit of the South Congregational Church and his preaching in many other churches were prolific or wise spiritual Inspiration; as a historian, his writings have become authorities. It was Dr. Hale who, 20 years boforo its consummation, predicted a worldwide peace tribunal; It was Dr. Hale who upheld Garrison and Phillips In their anti-slavery work: It was Dr. Halo whose benevolent counsel brought comfort to the sick and wounded soldiers on the battle-fields ot the Civil War as a member of the Sanitary Commission, and it was Dr. JIale who gave to the world the famous stanza: "Look up and not down; Look forward and not back; Look out and not in; Lend a hand." Dr. Hale was born In this city In 1S22. and by training, education and tradition he represented throughout the 87 years of his life the spirit of tho founder of Massachusetts Bay Colony. He was graduated from Harvard In 1S39. He was actively connected with the Boston Advertiser many years ago, and his first charge as a clergyman waa a church In Worcester. He was a prollflc writer and had for years been identified with the important philanthropic movements of tho city, state and nation. Dr. Hale's literary career bnsan unusually early.

Besides being a preacher Rev. Nathan Hale was a printer, and In his office the son Edward learned typesetting and developed a leaning toward newspaper work, which, during his college course at Harvard, he cultivated by becoming a reporter on the Boston Advertiser. In later years, although he had elected to follow his father's calling as a clergyman of the Unitarian faith, ho became editor of the Advertiser, occupving the chair at the time of the Civil War.

DECLARED MRS. HOWARD GOULD IN DIVORCE SUIT. ACCOUNTS FOR PAT OF BIG BILLS Used $500 to Replenish Hosiery and $5,000 for Five Tailored SuitsOne Year's Bill $70,000. New York, Special: What appeared to bo hazy memory of Mrs. Katherino Clemmons Gould on tho second day of her testimony In cross-examination brought a rebuke from Supreme Justice DowIIng, who Is hearing her suit for separation from her husband, Howard Gould, second son of the late Jay Gould. Another Interesting phase of the case was a tilt between Lawyers Delancoy Nlcoll for the defendant and Clarence J. Shearn for Mrs. Gould. "Please try to bo polite," Mr. Shearn cautioned Mr. Nlcoll, when the latter asked the witness a question sharply. "Oh, I'm sick of trying to be polite. I'll be polite all day and Mrs. Gould won't answer a straight question," retorted Nlcoll. "Yes, the witness has given Mr. Nlcoll much unnecessary trouble," Justice DowIIng Interposed. Once she apologized for her inability to tell whether certain restaurant checks were hers, saying she was interested in knowing "how her husband spent Ms money," and again when she could not tell whether a diamond pendant valued at $13,300 had been bought by her or her husband "for another." Delancey Nicoll protested vigorously against this insinuation and Justice Dowling ordered it stricken from the record. The amounts of assorted jewels, tailors' costumes and bootmakers' bills continued to make the spectators admitted to the court room gasp and stare. Tho articles purchased Included the pearl rope which the witness wore, listed at $27.000; tho disputed pendant, at $13,300; a diamond chain at $22,000; a diamond diadem at $24.000; a sapphire ring at $G,000. Such little things as $500 worth of silk stockings at a time or $1,528 for shoes were trivial by comparison. Five tallormade suits were ordered at at cost of $5,S07. "Under what name were you married?" was the next query. "Under the name my father gave me." "Ever known by another name?" "I took tho name of my stepfather, Dayan, and I was known as Viola Dayan when I first went on the stage. Mr. Dayan's father, a minister, objected to the name going on the billboards. I went back to tho name Clemmons." "Do you know Woodward?" asked Mr. Nicoll. referring to "Big Bill" Hawley. who was used In an effort to prove Mrs. Gould a bigamist "No," she answered, decisively, and began to fan herself nervously. "Did you ever know him?" "I was introduced to him once by Helen Mar on a steamer going to Europe." "Did you and Miss Mar go to London with Woodward?" "We did not, I saw him only on the steamer." Favors Woman Suffrage. New York, Special: Mrs. Oliver Hazard Perry Belmont, who, with Mrs. Ida Husted Harper, attended tho International Woman Suffrage Convention In London, arrived home last Friday on the Mauretanla, and announced that she would from this time forward wage a vigorous fight In behalf of the ballot for women. "I may not go on the stump and make speeches," said Mrs. Belmont, "but other women who are able speakers will be heard, and one of the liveliest campaigns ever known In this state will be seen next fall. New York should be the battlefield In America, the same as London is In England, and I am confident the women, both In England and America, will soon have the right to vote. "Why should not taxpayers have the right to vote? I hear that Miss Anne Morgan expresses herself In opposition to woman suffrage, but she can not advance one good reason against the ballot for women." Bryan's Son to Wed.

London, Juno 11, Cable: A cablegram was received hero from Captain Peterson, of tho North German Lloyd steamship, Irene, which says that he has taken on board 110 cabin passengers and that the HamburgAmerican Liner Batavia had the 300 steerage of the steamship Slavonio. which was wrecked off Flores Island In the Azores group. The message also displayed the proverbial good fortune of the Cunard Line, which up to now has been able to boa3t that It has never lost a passenger. The passengers of the lost ship will proceed to their destinations with slight delay. Just how the Slavonia came to launch herself upon the precipitous shores of tho Flores Island, the westernmost of the Azores group; how long the passengers were on board before rescue came, or how the transfers of these voyagers was accomplished. Is still to be told. It is not even known just when the Cunarder struck nor whether all of the officers and crew were saved. At)the time the message came from Captain Peterson the Cunard Line had not received the first hint of a disaster to the Slavonia. The Princess Irene is one of the crack ships of the North German Lloyd, ami the Batavia is one of the Mediterranean fleet ot the Hamburg Line. Tho Slavonia left this port on June 3 under Captain A. G. Dunning, a most experienced navigator and noted for his caution. The ofilcers and crew numbered fully 200. so that on board the ship when she stranded off Flores Island there were at least C10 persons. May Not Use Geographies. Indianapolis, Special: Whether the public schools of the state will have primary geographies during the coming school year will depend on the disposal to be made by the state board of school book commissioners of a motion made by Governor Marshall to the effect that no such text book be used during that time. The motion was made at the morning session and at once divided the board. The motion was made after notice had been received from the MncMillan company, publisher of the Tarr & Mc.Murray primary geographies, to the effect that the company refused to supply the books at the old price of 30 cents a volume. After a careful examination of the law, the board agreed that, according to the bond given by the company at the time of tho contract five years ago, the state had no grounds for a case In court, since the bond did not provide for recovery of damages by the state.

I MM CAPTURE AMERICAN POST ON MINDANAO ISLAND. UPRISING CONSIDERED LOCAL After One Night's Possession the Constabulary Retake the Place and Kill One. Manila, Cable: A portion of the second company of nativo constabulary, stationed at Davao, in the Island of Mindanao, mutinied on tho night of June C and attacked the company quarters, which they captured after wounding ono of the native officers. After a fight lasting two hours on the following day, in which one man named Libbey was killed and four others were wounded, the mutineers took to the mountains on the approach of a company of the constabulary stationed at Mapl, which hurried to the relief of the besieged Americans and loyal natives. Without any warning, tho mutineers suddenly attacked the quarters at night and gained possession of them before any resistance could be offered by a few native noncommissioned officers and several loyal members of the company. Governor Walker of the Davao province, of which the city of Davao Is the capital, immediately rallied the Americans and such natives as could be trusted In a large church and preparations for defense were hastily made during the night. Windows and doors were barred, loopholes cut, food and water taken into the building, and everything made ready to withstand a siege. At 5 o'clock on the afternoon of the 7th the mutineers began an attack on tho church. For three hours the fight raged. A heavy fire was directed against the church and Its defenders, but Governor Walker and his small force replied with such vigor that they discouraged all attempts to storm tho place. The mutineers retired and evidently expected to await darkness under cover until a safer and more successful attack could be made on the church. In the meantime, however, news of the mutiny had reached Mati, a town of considerable size, forty-six miles southeast of Davao. A company ot constabulary stationed there immediately hurried to the relief of Davao. Their approach caused the disloyal constabulary force to withdraw during the night Thirty native troopers escaped to the mountains with their arms and equipment. Acting Governor General Forbes, who returned from the Province of Pampanga and soon was in conference with Maj. Gen. William Duval, commanding the division of the Philippines, said: "This affair, deplorable as it seems to have been, has not changed my opinion of the native constabulary, nor my belief In the general excellency and loyalty of the force. Judgment must be roserved until we receive further details of the mutiny and the causes that brought it about." Finds $4,867 In a Bible. New York.

Almost three thousand bills were found, ranging In denomination from 10 cents to $10. The smaller ones were "shlnplasters." which were withdrawn from circulation In the early seventies. Tho total value of the Bible's treasure may be even larger, as It is possible some of the issues of the 10, 25 or 50 cent currency may command premiums from collectors. Bishop Farrelly Heads Diocese.

Bloodhounds were put on the trail of the assassin, who. It Is said, hid behind a pile of coal to fire the shot.
