JOHN McMILLAN DEAD.
Setifortb, Oct. 31. -John
ex -M. P. for South Huron, died at his
residence, in the township of Hullett,
this morning. The Aimouncement of
alr. McMillan's death was a sore t shock
to the community. It had been, known
for a few days that he was ailing, but
no one outside of his immediate cir-
cle supposed his case was serious. An
affection of the stomach was the im-
mediate cause of death.
John McMillan was 77 years of age.
He came to Canada from Scotland in
1843, settling on a farm in the town-
ship of Ilullett, in the same neighbor-
hood, where be has ever since resid-
ed. When he came to Huron there
was little cleared land, and he settled
in the bush and did his full share to-
wards converting the dense forests
into fruitful farms. For several years
he has been one of the most extensive
f,ariners and stock raisers in this part
of Canada. From his first settlement
he took a leading position among his
fellowtnen, and filled xnany positions
of trust, municipally and otherwise.
He was reeve of Hallett township for
15 years, and resigned that position
to beconae a member of tbe Dominion
Parliament. He first respresented Cen-
tre Huron, and after the reconstruc-
tion of the constitaency he sat for
Sonth Huron from 1887 until the gen-
eral election of 1900. He was a mall
of general ability, and being indus-
trious and ambitious, he not only ac-
cumulated a competency, but stored
his mind with much useful 'general
knowledge, so that, notwithstanding
he bad few educational advantages in
his youth, he was a remarkably well-
educated man. His power and gifts
as :01' eloquent and flaent platform
speaker brought hitn into prominence,
and there are few constituencies in the
province that his voice has not been
heard in, on the political platform or
at Farmers' Institute meetings. He

PAN-AMERICAN CLOSED,
Buffalo, Nov. 2. -The Pan-American
Exposition ended 315 12 o'cloek to -night.
At midnight President' Jelin Ca Mil -
1)01 -9) pressed the button and the lights
in the electric; tower were dim for the
last time. . The Exposition has not
been a financial success, but the bene-
fits derived from it will be of great val-
ue to the commercial interests of tile
country. The republics of 0011 13-31 and
Smith 4\a -rani -Ica, Mexico and the Do-
minion of Canada responded heartily
5.6 the puggestion of an all-Arnerienn
Exposition and sent to Buffalo a col-
leetion of exhibits seldom, if ever be-
fore equalled.
The financial loss will be in the
neighborhood of $3,000,000. The state-
ment tp be issued by- the officers of the
Exposition setting forth the expendi-
tures and receipts will be made public
some time this month. The loss will
fall upon the holders of the common
stock, the holders of second, mortgage
bonds and the contractor who erected
She buildings. Two hundred and ten
thousand shares of common stoek were
sold at $10 a share. The stock was
subscribed for by the citzens of Buffalo
and the Niagara frontier in small
-lots of ftom one share to one-huudred,
so that this loss of $2;100,000 will not
be seriously felt by anyone.
The total number of admissions for
She 'six months was close to 8,170,674,
which included passes. An average of
2;000,000 a month has been figured on
by the Exposition officials
Concession holders lost money, with
two or three exceptions, and several
were ruined. The notable money-
maker was the cyclorama of the J ohns-
tbwn flood, despised and scorned by
investors, which closed the season
$100,000 to the good.
To -day's big crowd saw a variety of
entertainment. Mrs. Taylor, who
Went OVell,the Niagara Falls in a bar-
rel was on exhibition free, and Carrie
Nation paraded over the grounds. The
exhibit buildings were jammed during
She afternoon, and there was consider-
able petty thieving. The Horticultur-
td building suffered tbe most loss from
the depredatious of the crowd, and it
finally became necessary to torn the
people on t of tbetuilding; and lock the
daors. There was a veritable riot on
the Midway this evening. The dis-
order started from 'a, qnarrel between
an intoxicated man and a waiter. The
crowd took the part of the stranger
and wrecked She place, smashing
chairs, tables and windows. A stream
of water trorn the fire hose finally put
She Mob to rout. 't
