Ed- mund Gosse was born in London in 1849, and from 1867 to the close of his life was engaged actively in literary pursuits, first as assit- ant in the British Museum, then as translator with the Board of Trade, until in 1904 he found, as librarian for the House of Lords, a position admiraBly suited to his genius and which gave him time for independent literary work, Well known both as poet and essayist, he will be best remembered per- haps for introducing foreign liter- atures, particularly the Scandina- vian, to his countrymen. Thus in 1891, he translated Ibsen's "Hedda Gabier," and in 1893 his "Master Builders," the later in collabora- tion with William Archer, the well known dramatic critic. Added to these was a large volume of work, particularly that devoted to seven- teenth and eighteenth century crit- fcal studies, His collected poems were published in 1896, FIREMEN KILLED AS BOILER BREAKS Port Arthur, May 18, -- Joseph Young, aged 38, fireman of the tug Horton, was fatally scalded with escaping steam at 7.30 this morning when a disc blew off the side of the boiler in the tug.

Captain William West, wrap- ping his own head in blankets, rushed through the -steam to res- cue Young. He found him lying on the floor, having rolled off the bunk, unconscious, but still alive. Tying a rope around Young's body, the Captain hauled him up on deck, but Young was dead by time they reached the open air, : Unable to get down to blow the A le on account of the dense clouds of hot steam, Captain West mounted the deck and waved his arms. The tug *"'Conmee," Cap- tain Nuttall, came to the "Hor- ton's" assistance, and towed her 'o shore from her moorings. Chief Engineer Vance was also badly scalded on the arms and legs, and is now in hospital, but will recov- , er, An inquest has been order- The tug Horton is ownéd by the Fort William Paper Company, and is leased this season to the Hammermill Paper Company, en- gaged in towing and moving logs and booms to that part of the wat- erfront where the boats and barges load with wood for export to De- troit, ln cn tin le RB ee. \ { Extra-Mural Department to Co-operate With Asso- ciation BY Montreal, May 19.--Plans are be- ing formulated by the Department of Extra-Mural Relations at McGill University to cooperate with the Montreal branch of the Chartered Institute of Secretaries in the giving of courses relative to fellowships in the institute, to members of that body, it was announced Friday morn- ing by Col.
