AGED PRIMATE IS DEAD.

The Archbishop of Canterbury I’asscs Away in London. Most Rev. Frederick Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury and primate of all England, died in London Tuesday. His

death had been expected for several days and only the archbishop's remarkable vitality ennViled him to survive as long as lie did. The primate died of old age. The i pathetic scene in Westminster Abbey at the coronation of King Edward was one of the indications of his failing strength. Then came

tlie collapse in the House of Lords at the conclusion of a vigorous speech iu support of the education bill. He had uot left his bed since then. Dr. Frederick Temple was born at Santa Maura, lonian Islands, Nov. “0, 1821, and achieved fame as head master at Rugby. He was made Archbishop of Canterbury Dec. 22, 1890, and was without doubt one of tlie most popular men who ever was primate of all lingland. Although 81 years old, bis health was good until his last illness. The archbishop’s work was mainly preaching, although he did some writing. His best known publications art* “Sermons at Bug by School," Hampton lectures nnd-tracts and pamphlets.
