NoBLE PRENTIs Del.
Stroke Of Paralysis Has a Fatal Tsrmin-
atfon-Noted EditSr Wrote q His
tory Of kansas

Noble Prentis died at the home Of
his daughter at La Harpe, Ill, early
Friday morning. He did not rally
from the stroke Of paralysis
Mr.. Prentis was one Of the early
newspaper men Of Kansas. He was
editor of the AtehisOn Champion, Law
renee Journal, Newton Republican and
Topeka papers. For the past eight
years he was an editorial writer on the
Kansas City Star.
Mr. Prentis' first wife died at Atehi-
son and she lies buried IN Oak Hill
cemetery there. One OF his daughters
lives at Newton, Kan, and the other at
La Harpe, III. In 1886 Mr.. Prentis
married Mrs. Carrie Campbell Ander-
son, of Topeka, who survives him
Mr.. Prentis was 81 years old
Many school teachers and others will
be put in touch more closely with
Noble Prentis by having read the his
tory Of Kansas, written BY him.
The Kansas City Star says editoTially
Of Mr.. Prentis:
$40 speak Of Noble Prentis as dead
is, for one who was closely associated
with him in life, a mOurnful task.
There was about his cOmpanionship a
perennial delight that suggested no
idea of sorrow OF decay. He was, to
all who knew him well, such a bene-
faction as travellers in the desert find
in the cooling spring and the grateful
shade. His mind to him a kingdom
was, but its monarch was priceIy in the
distribution Of its intellectual treas
ures. To meet him day by day and to
hang upon his rare discourse was to
render the acquisition Of knowledge
little less than luxury.
With all Of its superb equipment, the
mind of Mr.. Prentis was as simple as
that Of a child. He possessed the sort
Of a confding and trusting nature
which inspires love and compels affec-
ton. He was wise, but not in the
craft of a selfish world. His heart and
mind were tremendously attuned to
all that was gentle and sweet in human
existence. He loved the grass and the
trees and the flowers and the birds
and all Of the precious gifts Of God
which cannot be sophisticated by the
guile of man His devotion to books
amounted to a passion He had a
faculty for the assimilation Of know
ledge that was phenomenal The best
thought Of sages and philosophers, the
teaching Of historians, the sentiment
Of bards and poets, the romance Of the
masters Of fiction we're absorbed by
him with the ease, almost, with which

like he meant it. Wherever he is known
be is respected, bonored, loved. The
blue blood which courses in his veins,
for he traces his lineage through dis
tinguished line Of ancestors, has not
taken him from sympathy with the
common people. He is as plain as an
old shoe. Mr.. Stevenson is a good
talker. In the campaign Of 1892 he
contributed many good speeches and
helped toward democratic success.
The headsman's ak, which he welded
as assistant postmaster general, en-
deared him to many democrats, who
believed in remembering the boys in
the trenches.
Even in Illinois no one can be found
to say auRht derogatory to the ability
or personal character of the great dem
ocrat. When he served as vice presi-
dent, an officer whose duties are in the
main presiding over the United States
senate, he handled the delicate and
difficult matters Of the place with such
prudence, ability and impartiality as
to win general commentator. Senator
Allison, now the leader Of the republi-
can majority in the senate, once said
of him that he knew no more vigorous
party man and no more impartial
chairman.
Gen. Stevenson is intensely patriotic.
He believes in the American system Of
government with all his heart. He is
for the republic against the empire.
Filial reverence brought him a wife
When be was a youth his devotion to
his mother won the love Of fair Ken
lucky girl who afterward became Mrs.
Stevenson. She said that anyone who
made such q good son would certainly
make a good husband. And this proved
true. His home life has been clean,
pure, happy.

BRYAN,s MATE.
Something About AdIai Z. Stevenson, the
Democratic Nominee for the Vice
Presidency.
waiter Williams in Kansas City Times,l


Walter Williams in Kansas City Timesl
Adlai E. Stevenson was born in
Kentucky in 1885. He was a farmers
boy. His father, a staunch Presbyter-
ian of Covenanter stock, named him
Adlai, taking the name from the Bible
word, meaning "just." Both Bryan and
Stevenson are Presbyterians.
Stevenson got through school by hard
knocks. He studied hard and worked
hard to secure the money to pay for
course of study. He got his genuine
Americanism from ancestry and early
environment and training. One Of his
forefathers, a relative Of the jefferson
City Ewings, wrote the first Declaration
Of Independence, that issued by the
sturdy farmers of MecklenburR county,
North Carolina, in I775. 1t is an appro-
pirate coincidence that he should stand
now upon a platform that is the latest
Declaration Of Independence. Steven
son attended Centre college, that great
Kentucky institution from which the
Crittendens, Vest, McCreary, Breckin-
ridge and a score Of other great Ameri-
cans graduated. Later he moved to
Illinois and in Bloomington practiced
law. Here he was chosen congressman
two terms in a republican district.
From here he went to Washington in
1888 as first assistant postmaster gen.
eraI and in 1892 became the democratic
nominee for vice president on the tick
ct with Grover Cleveland.
He did not approve Of Mr.. Cleveland's
financial policy and broke with the ad-
ministration upon this subject. He
supported Bryan cordially In 1896. He
has never waivered In his allegiance to
the democratic faith. Since bis retire.
ment from Office he has practiced lax
in Bloomington.
Mr.. Stevenson looks like statesman
of the old school. He is six feet two
inches in height, broad shouIdered and
straight as an arrow. Though IS years
Of age he is as vigorous as a man Of 80
years. His personal habits are eXem-
plary. He does not swear. He does
not gamble. He smokes a mild cigar
occasionally. He tells story well, and
ike Lincoln, points his speeches with
apt illustrations. He is one Of the most
democratic Of men. In Washington he
was accessible to all caIlars and his
term Of service as vice president was
marked with unostentation and sim
pIicity.
Two years ago in st. Louis talked
with Gen. Stevenson upon the political
situation. He has always been untsint-
ed in politics and speaks with frank
ness upon all questions. He is eonser-
vatiTe. Before the Chicago convention
be vas talked Of for president. He
said two years ago that he believed
Bryan would be the next president
No man, he declared, had SO large q
hold upon the affections Of the people.

spect as in others. There Is honesty IN

Mr.. Major, the fsmOus cement nan Of NsE-
YORK, explains some very interesting facts a5sr-t
Majors Cement.
The moltitudes who use this standard article
know that it's many hundred per cent better
than other cements, for which similar claims
are made. but a great many do not know Wig.
The simple reason is that Mr.. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and other nan
ufactursrs do not nse them. because they arg'to0
expensive and no not allow large profits. 1r.
Major tells Us that one Of the elements o. hlE
S2-65 gallon. while large share Of the So
called cements and liquid glue upon the market
are sIEteen-cent glue. dissolved IN water OF cit
nc acid, and in some cases. altered slightly n
color and odor By the addition Of cheap and
useless materials.
Majors cement retalls at fifteen cents G1n
twenty-five cents a bottle, and when dealer
tries to sell substitute you can depend upon
it that his only object Is to make larEer profit.
The profit on Majors cement Is as much as
any dealer ought-to make on any cement. And
this is dOubly true IN view Of the fact that each
dealer gets his share OF the benefit Of Mr. MAJ
Or's advertising, which now amounts 70 over
Eshed in 1916.
