Thomas F. Walsh Died at His Home in Washington Late Last Evening after Quite a Long Illness. WORLD'S SCIENTISTS HONORED HIS GENIUS He Began Life on the Farm and by His Industry and Intelligence Worked His Way to High Place. Washington, D. C, April 9. Thomas F. Walsh, of Colorado and Washing' ton, died at 11:25 o'clock last night, at his home in Massachusetts avenue, TJeath was due to heart trouble. Mr. Walsh had been in poor health for several weeks. , . . . . The end came peacefully, without pain. At the bedside were the mem bers of the family and Mr. Walsh's physicians. i More than a month ago Mr. Walsh's condition became such as to cause apprehension, and it was decided that a trip to Florida might be of benefit to his shattered health. Accordingly, accompanied by Mrs. Walsh, he went to Palm Beach, Ma., But the Improve menl hoped for was not to be gained there, and the party Journeyed next to San Antonio, Texas. . - 1 When it became known that Mr. yvaisn s case was aesoerste he was purr led by special train to his Washington home, arriving here Thursday, March 24. I Sketch of Walsh's Life. i Born in the county of , TIpperary, Ireland, in 1851, of a poor family, Thomas F. Walsh' became one of the wealthiest men and the greatest min fng man in the United States. i He was educated in the public schools of Ireland .and later learned the millwright's trade; this was before he Was 10 years of age. He then emigrat ed to America and went .to, Massachu setts, where he earned his living at the carpentry trade.; ; He was- persuaded to go. west and Subsequently established - himself- in Leadvllle, where lie engaged in busi ness as a builder and contractor. Later he built houses in the Black Hills re gion and did little prospecting. Mr. Walsh never went about the country With pick on . hla back. By close ' Itudy he acquired an intimate knowl edge of geology, mineralogy and metal lnrgy; the disposition of ore bodies and the development and treatment of ores, and was at his death, the foremost fnining expert of the United States. i Long before Mr. Walsh became rich V .a .n iM m. st. lie tuev huu ic m ivmo wim jhibb jui rie Reed, a south Wisconsin girl, whom lie married in Oetober, 1870, at Lead vllle. Col. She; although her early horizon was limited, possessed all the gifts that should belong to a rich man's wire. y Operated a Hotel. . 'J. He ran a hotel in his early mining tiays. ana u was mrougn mis nusiness that he won the admiration and respect of all the miners who met him. Es pecially so, because he would always welcome a man whether he had luck or not . , Duclsg hla spare momentahe arrived at -some original, theories of mining, and dreamed of a great fortune. He made it a regular .practice to "grub Stake" prospecting parties in consider ation of a share of thT profits, if any, 'One such party'in 1876, struck some thing rich in the Black Hills. Walsh sold his share in. the mine for .$100,000 and that was the' foundation of his great fortune. ; ? It was somewhere around 1800 that Walsh . discovered the greatest mine 1 In the country, the Camp Bird, of ' which he was the largest owner. One day he came to the conclusion that there were valuable gold and silver deposits In the -high ' regions around ' the ouray district. - Old miners laugh' dat him, but he staked out claims and set gangs of men to work. The re suit of his sagacity and pluck was the Camp Bird mine, which yielded $3,000, OOO the first three years of its exisV . Miners Well Cared For, . . Perhaps throughout the world there can not be found a mine or mining men 'working on them Id more comfort able than on the Walsh properties in Colorado. --The men: are all. well hous ed and all well fed. Places are provided where they may , dry their clothe as soon as they, come from the mines. There are baths with porcelain tuba and other conveniences. The living rooms are lighted with electric Ity and' heated with steam. In that district of the country where there Is always trouble, there has nev er been a strike in tltf 'Walsh, proper ties or any labor disturbances. Mr. Walsh was as great a success socially as ' he was- -financially. His family are members of the exclusiv circles In Washington. Newport and Paris; and as a host Mr, Walsh had moat enviable reputation." nuu. u.iiiiuk u - int. uu vi rlum. In special train of five pal tee cars, he met the late King Leopold nd had him dine on the train with him. . It was at this - meeting that these two men became fast friends and began talking money. His Majesty complained at the time that his invest td money was bringing him only three per eent and that the revenue was a nighty uncertain matter at that "Why I draw tea per eent," said Walsh, "and its a dead certainty. Ae the result of that meeting Walsh

and King Leopold engaged in an e terprise to develop mining propertl in the Congo.

Mr. Walsh was a member of mat of the leading Engineering Societic and social clubs of this country. TWO SUSPECTS HEL n Connection With the Holdu; of Fast Passenger Train.

Plan State Banquet For Teddy

This Is Being Agitated in London by Prominent Members of

the House of Commons (Special Calle from the International News Service. (BY PHILLIP EVERETT.) London, April 9. There is a strong feeling among men of all- parties in the house of commons that the government should hold an official banquet or luncheon in honor' of ex-President Roosevelt when he visits London in May. " Mr. Roosevelt will in any case have a cordial and enthusiastic welcome. He will be the "lion" of the season. He will be welcomed 'or his own sake, and as a representative although an exofficio one of the great republic. . . During his stay in London, he win be the guest of the American Ambassador at Dorchester House, and also, for some time the guest of Mr. Arthur Lee, M. P., at his home in Mayfair. Mr. Lee was British Military attache with the American army, including the Roosevelt Rough Riders, during the Spanish American War, and was afterwards Military attache at Washington. He is thus an old friend of Mr. Roosevelt. With characteristic precision and the thoroughness of the army of Jap anese who have taken possession of the White City, are rapidly pushing to completion their particular sections of the great . Japan-British exhibition. whjch U to be opened early in May. "At the present rate," said an oflicia'l yesterday, "they will be ready well before the opening day, and their exhibits are coming in quickly." The form of these exhibits will be extremely varied and interesting. At present few of the immense packing cases have been opened, but the structure of and devices on the stands tell a good. deal, and one stand in particular will interest musicians, for it will bear Japanese organs, pianos and violins. - : . For the most part the great white buildings are full of the dine of hammering by swarms of lithe, little Japanese workmen ' in quaint blue costumes, and one can only say that an exhibition is taking shape In what may prove to be record time. But in the great hall near the wood-lane entrance a piece of richly wrought Oriental architecture in an almost finished atate gives an idea of the surroundings in which .the visitor will find himself in the summer. This is a- massive- and realistic reproduction of the famous Temple Gate of Nara. Japan's ancient capital, and its suinptuousness will later: have a sombre relief of dark cedars, with stone lanterns set among themThrough this gate visitors, will pass to inspect the twelve life-sie tableaux illustrative of Japan's two thousand five hundred years of history. The four seasons, as they appear in Japan, will be represented by: four Urge natural tableau; each of which

T

Of Windy City J Gossip from London. will be a miniature landscape through which visitors will be able to walk. There Is a Japanese house in one of the buildings with the painting of a tree on one of its walls so realistic that it Jooks as though its leaves might be plucked. In another building a large space Is to be devoted to the native pottery, and such things as punch bowls, finger bowls, flower vases, tea-pots and services, and incense burners of Japanese manufacture, and bearing fantastic Oriental designs, will be on view, while elsewhere, in the Japanese fair, the potters will be seen at their work. The latest word on the subject of the house of lords comes from Sir Francis Galton, F. R. S. the distinguished scientist, who has made heridity a special study. Sir Francis ioints out that the principles of primogecture, by which the first-born sons succeed to their fathers planes in the house of lords is not in accord with' the principles of the science of heridity. "The claims of heridity would be best satisfied," says, Sir Francis, "if all the sons of peers were equally eligible to the peerage, and a selection made among them, late researches having shown that the eldest born are, as a rule, inferior in natural gifts to the younger born In a small but siginficant degree." ' Some support to, a similar theory was given .recently in a lecture on heridity at Bedford college by Mrs. Whetham. "Often we find that poets are the first born of a family." she said. 'The men with the real, solid ability are perhaps more frequently found among the later members of the family.- , . . .. . City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. TATE The funeral of Isabelle W.

Strike of Coal Miners Is a Sad Blow to Street Car - System. . . SITUATION IS ALARMING THERE IS ONLY A MEAGER SUP PLY OF COAL ANP FACTORIES WILL SOON BE FORCED TO SUSPEND OPERATIONS. . (American News Service) Chicago. April Lincoln U with out street car service today because the coal miners 6truck ' and because there is no niel in tiie bunkers at that company's power house. The last of the coal was bunted late last night and when the cars were all plac ed in the barn, the doors were lock ed and the employes told that they would be sent for when needed. This is the first alarming note struck since the calling out on strike of the 75,000 Illinois miners.' ' ' Other towns throughout the Central portion cf the state have only a roeag er supply and it. is feared factories will be forced to curtail their use of this fuel. There is no danger of short. age in Chicago for the next two weeks and by that time coal dealers believe the mines in Indiana will be running and able to supply the market for a time, The Illinois operators will meet with the miners in this city Monday to settle the conditions on which construction work in the mines may bo carried on and the joint scale commit tee wijl take up the discussion of a new agreement Tuesday. Indications point to a prolonged suspension in Illinois. . Indiana operators and miners have failed to agree on a new contract and the miners convention at Terre Haute adjourned sine die after refusing to resume work pending negotiations. The joint scale committee will now try to adjust their differences.

A REWARD OFFERED

County Commissioners Recommend $500 to Apprehend a Murderer. UP TO THE COUNTY COUNCIL At the meeting of the county com missioners this morning, about twen ty of the most influential citisens of western Wayne county, met with them and urged that a reward of $1,000 be offered for the arrest and convitcion of the murderer of Mrs. Frank Allison.

The commissioners only have a right to recommend that the money be appropriated as final action must be taken by the county council. This body will be called together early next week, and the appropriation will go through. There is no question about this, as a large majority of the members of the council have been consulted and. in each instance, they concurred In the action of the commissioners. Requisite Fer Reward. Whoever, is responsible for the dis covery, arrest and conviction or the party guilty of Mrs. Allison's murder, will receive the money.
