SENATOR HANNA TO
JOIN GRAND ARMY,
Senator was Soldier During Civil
War, but Has Kept the
Matter q Secret.

Washington, D. c., Jan. Ex-senator
the next annual reunion of the G. A. r.
as d ''coNrade" After long hesitation
and much persuasion he has consented to
join the organization, and will! be initial
ed soon, either here or at Cleveland
Commander-in-C Chief Rassieur of the G..
A. r. is responsible for Senator Hanna
becoming a member of the order. He
was here recently and visited the sena-
tor. In the conversation Mr.. Hanna re-
ferred to his military experiences, no
mention of which appears in his autobiog-
raphy as printed in the Congressional d.
rectory.
1t seems that Mr.. Hanna did not enter
the service till toward the close of the
war because of religious scruples. His
parents were Quakers and opposed to
war as a matter of principle. Mr. Han
ma joined the One Hundred and Fiftieth
Ohio volunteers at Cleveland on May 5,
1854, in response to an urgent call for
To-day men to assist Gen. Grant in
completing his Virginia campaign.
Mr.. Hanna was made second lieu
tenant Of his regiment. which came to
this city and was distributed TO- gar
rison duty in the outlying Notifications.
While Lieut.. Hanna was serving with
his regiment near this city Gen. Early
made his famous raid, coming within
sight of the capitops dome, and the bat
tie of Fort Stevens was fought, when
the firing of cannon could be heard at
the executive mansion. President Lin
coin went out to see the regiment to
which young Hanna belonged repulse

ALWAYS A HARD WORKER.
Queen was Faithful in Attending to
Public Business

London, Jan. 22.-The papers devote
columns of space to historical and per-
sonal "reminiscences and the scenes and
incidents of the Queens life. Emphasis
is laid on the fact that her majesty is
now paying the penalty for her devotion
to affairs Of state. 1t is generally recog-
nlzed that until few days ago there
was no harder worker in the Kingdom
Roughly estimated, she signed $4,000
documents yearly. No dispatch of any
gravity was ever issued from the foreign
office until seen by the Queen and some
idea Of the work thus entailed is gather
able from the fact that the foreign office
handles considerably over 1000 dis
patches weekly.
After every sitting of the House Of
Commons the government leader in the
House was. in the habit Of forwarding
to the Queen an abstract Of the bust
ness done. She frequently returned
them with marginal notes asking for ex-
plantations.
Ellen Terry's appearance at Sandring-
ham before the Queen is recalled as be-
ing the only occasion on which her mai
esty ever prompted an actress Mistak-
ing pause by Miss Terry for forgetful-
ness. the Queen gave her the cue very
softly.
AS Miss Terry did not take the cue.
the Queen repeated it more loudly. and
the actress, suppressing her merriment,
accepted the cue and proceeded with her
part.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1901-01-30

During yesterday her majesty's physi-
clans had only a vestige of hope that
they would be able to keep the Queen s
feeble life in existence until the Prince
of Wales arrived. To secure this result
they resorted to the frequent use of bran
dy and champagne. These stimulants,
used to an extent which only the great
est emergency justified, worked their proc
ess and when the Prince Of Wales and
Emperor William entered the castle
grounds they found the Queen trihe
better than had been expected.
Rally Causes No False Hopes.
The Queens rallying astonished no one
more than her physicians, and when at
4 O clock yesterday afternoon they heard
her ask for chicken broth their amaze
ment almost equaled their delight. Pr-
vately, however, they built no false hopes
upon these fading signs of what has been
one Of the strongest constitutions with
which q woman was ever endowed
Medical science has employed and is
employing it's utmost resources to defer
the end, which it admits is inevitable
That these efforts have been successful
thus far beyond their expectations the
physicians ascribe, quite rightly, to the
superb resistance which nature, rein
forced by the model life the Queen
has always lived is making. The aver
age man or woman of her age would
have succumbed at the first attack of the
combined maladies, which are usually
fatal within a few hours.

"Abouf two months ago was taken
very III with la grippe and was obliged
to go to bed. took three bottles of
Peruna with very beneficial results,
and was able to leave my bed i'm a
week and regained my usual strength
very soon.
81 have nothing but praise for Peru
ma, and recommend 1t to those SINH
larry affected wherever 1 can. -
Frances M. Anderson.
La grippe is, strictly speaking, cpl
demic catarrh--that is to say, variety
of acute catarrh which is so contagious
and runs course more or less definite,
the same as scarlet fever, whooplng
cough etc.
During the acute stakes of la grippe it
is not very fatal disease, but the condi-
ton in which it leaves the system has
caused the death of a countless number.
Indeed nearly every person who has
had la grippe within the last three years
finds himself more or less deranged by
the pernicious effects of this disease. The
majority of those who have escaped
death find life scarcely worth living.
II this vast multitude of people could
only know with what certainty and
promptness Peruna would relieve them
of all the bad effects which la grippe has
brought upon them, what an untold
amount Of suffering would be averted!
Thousands have already heard how
quickly this remedy will cure i'll these
cases and have been saved: but tens of
thousands have not yet heard, and con-

QUEENS DAUGHTER ILL.
Condition of Dowager Empress Fred.
erick is Very Serious.

London, Jan. 22.-The following state
ment of the condition of the Dowager
Empress Frederick appears i'll the Daily
Chronicle:
1T is with sincere regret that we an
nounce that the Empress Frederick's con-
dition has become materially worse
There has been a serious development of
the disease from which she is suffering
and her physical pain is intense.
All idea of a journey in pursuit of
health has been definitely abandoned, and
it is in the highest degree improbable
that she will ever leave Cronberg"
This IS somewhat at variance with re-
ports from Berlin to the other morning
papers which report that the condition of
the Dowager Empress is a trife more ia
vorable. The news that Queen Victoria
was dying had very serious effect upon
her oldest daughter. The dowager En-
press was very anxious to go to Osborne
and did not abandon the hope Of going
until it was represented to her that it
would be utterly impossible for her to
undertake the Journey.
