All England Unites in Honoring
the Veteran American
Humorist.
BIRRELL VOICES FEELING
Great Banquet in London, at Which
He Is Hailed as Finest Living Au
thor Mark Twain's Char
acteristic Reply.
LONDON,- June 25. The finest tribute
which Mark Twain has received In Eng
land KB) the Pilgrim luncheon In his
honor today. The hosts numbered 1500.
Two notable speeches were made, that
of Chief Secretary for Ireland Blrrell. In
troducing Mark Twain, which was classic
and full of humor, concluding with a
tribute which brought the company to Its
feet with prolonged cheering, and Mr.
Clemens' reply, which was largely hu
morous. The presence of many members of Par
liament was particularly complimentary
as they were obliged to absent them
selves from one of the most important
and Interesting debates of the season.
There were only two toasts, "King Bd
ward and the President of the United
States," and "Our Guest, Mark Twain."
All Love Mark Twain.
Mr. Blrrell, In proposing the latter toast,
said that Samuel Clemens was known
to all good men and women in both hemi
spheres, and to all boys and girls who
are good for anything, as Mark Twain.
The dead authors, he said, were a mighty
army. They abounded on the shelves,
but Mark Twain was the finest specimen
extant of the living authors. They all
loved him and were there to tell him so.
He was not going to say what the world
of a thousand years hence would think of
Twain, but he was speaking for the men
and- women of today and their children,
to say what Twain had been to them.
He remembmered in 1867 buying a copy
of "The Jumping Frog," in the preface
of which Twain was described as "the
wild humorist of the Pacific Slope," and
the "Moralist of the Main," but the au
thor had proved to be an influence dissi
pating national Influence and would leave
the world richer than he found it.
Humor and Sentiment Mixed.
Mr. Clemens, replying, said t!iat Mr.
Blrrell had touched very lightly upon his
position as a moralist. He was glad to
be recognized as such because he had
suffered since he had been in England.
When he came here, he said, he saw a
placard announcing that "Mark Twain
Arrives" and ''The Ascot Cup is Stolen,"
and he had no doubt that his character
had suffered thereby. He was quite sin
cere In his protest, as he never got the
cup because he never had a chance to
get it.
Yet in a similar bantering mood he told
story" after story, until, becoming more
serious, he pathetically referred to the
loss of his daughter. Concluding, he said:
"I have received since arriving hun
dreds and hundreds of letters from all
conditions of people In England. There
Is compliment and praise in them, but
above all there is the note of affection;
and affection is the most precious reward
man can desire, whether for character
or achievement.
"The letters make me feel that In Eng
land, as in America, I am not a stranger,
not an alien, but at home."

GALLEO BACK FROM DEATH
SOX'S VOICE HEARD BY MOTHER
IX DYING HOUR.
Priest Tells of Parent's Revivlfica
tion When Apparently Beyond
Recovery. C
DENVER, Colo., June 25.--(Special.)
Drawn back from the portals of death by
her beloved son. Rev. Percy A. Phillips,
aged Mrs. W. J. Phillips, of Vancouver,
B. C-, was resuscitated after her heart
had ceased to beat. Physicians had pro
nounced her dead a few moments before
Father Phillips burst into the room
where his mother lay. He had come
across half a continent In response to a
telegram telling of her illness to see her
before she died.
"Too late." burst from his lips as he
entered the room where his mother lay
apparently cold in death. The words
reached the ears upon which death had
not quite put its seal. The stilled heart
began to beat sluggishly, then faster, the
wrinkled eyelids fluttered, opened and
the mother brought back from death
smiled feebly upon her son.
"I heard you and came back," she mur
mured, yi wanted to die until I heard
your voice. I was dead then, just float
ing out and out, when I heard your voice
and came back."
From that time on Mrs. Phillips recov
ered rapidly and when her son left her
to return to Denver she was well on tlx
road to recovery. Mrs. Phillips la 84
years old which makes her return to life
still more wonderful. She suffered from
indigestion which affected the heart. The
white-haired mother had not seen her
son for several years.
"It was a miracle," declared Father
Phillips, who has just reached Denver.
"My mother was dead when I arrived.
There had been absolute cessation of the
heart beats a few minutes before, but
when I spoke, life came into her cold clay.
She declared It was the sound of my
voice that brought her back to life. When
I left Vancouver she was able to sit up
and though not entirely recovered, is well
on the road to it.
"I had not seen my mother for years.
They said before she died she was anxious
to see me."
Father Phillips is chancellor of the
Denver Catholic diocese.
REBELS IN WAR OFFICE
Revolutionary Group Unearthed in
Ministry's Department.
ST. PETERSBURG. June 25. The po
lice last night searched a department
of the War Ministry and found is to be
the headquarters of one of the revolu
tionary groups. The building was sur
rounded by police during the search,
but only one arrest was made. Much
incendiary literature was found. The
authorities have made every effort to
prevent the publication and circulation
of the manifestos of the Deputies of
the Social Revolutionists and Group of
Toll parties, but with little success.
One proclamation was recently printed
surreptitiously on the presses of the
Ofliclal Messenger.
REBELS SWINDLE BIG BANK

VLADIVOSTOK, June 25. The Rtus-so-Chlnese

today on a forged check. The man to
whom the payment was made escaped.
HARBIN. June 25. A revolutionist
disguised as an officer of the frontier
guards today drew $30,000 from the
Russo-Chinese Bank on a forged check
and decamped.
URGE RESISTANCE BY FORCE
Revolutionists Attack Emperor in
Manifesto on Down.
ST, PETERSBURG. June 25. The So
cial Revolutionists and Group of Toll
members of the late Parliament, number
ing 1SS Deputies, yesterday issued their an
ticipated manifestos summoning the peo
ple to continue by force the struggle for
land, liberty and popular representation.
The documents, which proclaim that
Parliament perished for defending the
people's rights, are remarkable for the
fact that the Emperor for the first time
Is attacked by name for breach of peace,
the revolutionary parliamentarians hav
ing heretofore attributed all sins to the
governing class owing to the lingering
sentiment of loyalty to the Emperor
among the peasant masses.
The manifestos are regarded as being
second Viborg addresses, but they lack
the authority given to the latter by the
participation of an Influential party, the
Constitutional Democrats.
The Social Democratic members of the
late Parliament did not issue a manifesto,
being unable to obtain the assent of their
Parliamentary committee, most of whom
are now in prison. They will issue a
manifesto later. A conference of Consti
tutional Democrats which was held at
TerUoki and attended by delegates from
