Low; and a pillow from Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Stu art. Mr Mrs. Stuart were the recipi ents of many messages of condolence during the day.

It Is a long time since a death has caused such a shock In the city and everyone, apparently, united In tendering their condolence to the grief-stricken family. The representatives of the various local athletic organizations expressed their regrets on behalf of their respective clubs and messages were also received from Montreal and elsewhere, where Hod had made hundreds of friends. Hod's last newspaper Interview ap pears to have been given last week at Belleville, where he wss shown a clipping from the Cltlxen statins: that he had received offers from western clubs which desired his services next win ter. The Belleville Intelligencer of Saturday had the following concerning Stuart: 'The Intelligencer this morning had a conversation with Mr. Stuart and the famous player said he didn't know, now, where he would play next winter, or If he would play at all.

The great cover point seemed to be a little sore on the papers In places where he had played. It was not always the players who did the best who got the best press notices. Anyhow, he could not say what his prospects were for next winter. He might stay In Belleville, but whether he would chase the puck or not he couldn't say. And, by the way.

the Impression left on the Interviewer's mind was that Hod did not care much whether he ever played hockey again or not." REGRET IN MONTREAL. Montreal, June 24 That Mnntrealers were shocked to hear of Hod Stuart's tragic death is to put It mildly. Presi dent James Strachan of the Wandpres Hockey club, and other friends in the city were Informed by wire of the fa tality and It was not long till the sad news was pretty generally known throughout the city. It was with consternation that the news was heard, for Hod Stuart Was one of the most popular athletes ever seen or known in Montreal or Indeed all Canada. Big and strong though he was, he was one of the gentlest of chaps quiet, reserved, tin-assuming.

On the ice he was noted for his forbearance. Players might foul him, use him unduly roughly or speak Insultingly to him, yet they could not drive that genial smile from his face. Montrealers and Ottawans saw him deliberately battered test winter but never did they see him act In any but tha most gentlemanly way. His sameness was the talk of ths Canadian hockey world and probably nothing hke It was ever seen In the athletic circles of the Dominion. Stuart was the most talked of hockey player In Canada last winter.

was considered by competent Judges to be the finest exponent of hockey In the world and his work for the) Wanderers made It apparent that there was good grounds for thts opinion. Little or no comment la required oni Hod's work here throughout the winter. He was the backbone of the team, a real general of the game, knowing the game thoroughly himself and being able to Impart his knowledge to others. He could play any position from forward to point, and without him the Wanderers would have been lost. His gentlemanly playing in all the hard games he took part In, won hosts of friends for Stuart In this city.

In the famous Ottawa match, which led to the summonsing of two of the play ers to a police court, Stuart bore the brunt of the rough work without either flinching or retaliating. Although laid out unconscious In the course of the match, he came back and flnbmed out as If nothing had happened. In the return match in Ottawa late In the Healthful and Economical.
