WILL MEET TONIGHT.
Columbia Club to Take Action ON Gen.
Harrison's Death.

This evening. at s o'clock, the members
of the Columbia Club will meet in the as
sembly room of the clubhouse to adopt
resolutions and a other suitable action
in regard to General Harrison's Death.
Addresses will be made by John l.. Crit
fths, W.. A. Woods, General John CO.
burn, General Lew Wallace, A. l.. Mason
and others. This meeting will have a
peculiar significance said President FRANK
w. Morrison. last night, from the fact
that the Columbia Club was an inspiration
OF General Harrison, and grew out of his
nomination for the presidency. He was
it's first honorary member, and his last
public appearance was at the banquet held
on the eve of Jan. /, 1901, at which he
made graceful acknowledgment of the great
services which the club had i'm and out
OF season performed for him and in his
interests. and he said at that time that
the recollection of these services would
abide with him for all time"

Der of this club. departed this life March 10.
1901. He had attained the iullness of life i'm
years and achievement. As a soldier he
was brave, aggressive and capable; as a
lawyer he was careful, studious and in
vincible; as a senator he was observant and
ever mindful of the needs and welfare of
his people, ever ready in debate, the logic
of and force of his made him a
potent factor in the legislation of our coun-
try.
"By his close study and experience he at
tanned the prophetic vision of the states
man. AS our chief executive. by his cool,
calculating, conservative, yet vigorous pol
icy. he gave us an administration of which
every American may well feel proud. As a
citizen he was clean. pure and through and

will ever stand in our history as that of one
OF the greatest American statesmen.
Resolved. That in his death our club has
sustained a great loss. but far greater has
been the loss OF the Nation"

degree of mental power and insight which
enables one 10 see all that there is to be
seen in a given field Under that defini-
ton:
Mr.. Harrison was a man OF genius in
law, and in craftsmanship. and in oratory.
He was great as a lawyer. great as a
statesman. and. in my judgment. he had
no equal in our country as an extemporane-
Gus speaker. Add to this superb intellect

his stainless personal character. and then
crown all with his profound but unosten-
tatious religious faith, and we have as
high and as noble a type of American citi-
zenship as this generation has seen.
