Argentine, Kas., Nov. 15.-Smallpox

weeks in Argentine yesterday afternoon
when J. F. Bradley died in his home
at No. 5 North street Mr.. Bradley's
wife died of smallpox three weeks ago
in the same house, and her daughter
and husband went there to help prepare
the body for burial. Both of them now
have smallpox in a very bad form. The
son-in-law is expected to die at any
time. The city fumigator of Kansas
City, Kas., went to Argentine last night
and buried the body of Mr.. Bradley.
There are three cases of smallpox in
the Park house, in Fifth street, near the
Santa Fe tracks, and the house is
guarded by special officers. The cases
were discovered Wednesday. In this
same house a woman died two weeks
ago, and her death was attributed to
and smallpox sign was placed on the
house. Four other physicians held a
consultation, however, and pronounced
the death due to another cause and the
placard was removed.

The Varsity team was considerably

Will Retire from Public Life at Close
of Senatorial Term.

Washington, Nov. 15.-There is ap
parently no longer any question of SEN
ator M A Hanna's intention to retire
from public life at the close of his pres
ent term in the United States senate. 1t
is stated today on the authority of a
man who has the closest personal and
political relations with the Ohio senator
that Mr.. Hanna will not be candidate
for reelection to the senate. will not.
under any combination of conditions, be
a candidate for the Republican nominal
ton for the presidency in 1904 and Will
not, if he can possibly avoid it, continue
as chairman of the Republican national
committee after the meeting of the Re-
publican national convention in 1904.
Ever since the death of President Nc
Kinley political gossip has been busy
with Senator Hanna's name in connec-
ton with the Republican presidential
nomination Mr.. Hanna refused to en-
courage this movement in his interest,
although he never made any public dec
laration on the subject. 1t was difficult
to make the country believe that he was
not planning to secure the nomination
in 1904, and there was great speculation
as to how far he would go in using the
organization of the party of which he
was the head in furthering his own can
didacy. 1t is no secret that certain Re
publican elements were and have at all
times been favorable to Mr. Hanna
candidacy and that they have been, at
least until quite recently. persistently
working TO secure the defeat of Mr.
Roosevelt and the nomination of SEN
ator Hanna.
1t must be said to the everlasting
credit of Senator Hanna that he has had
no part and lent no countenance to these
plans of his admirers. His record in the
senate last winter was convincing proof
of his loyalty to President Roosevelt
Within the last week Senator Hanna
has made the emphatic statement to one
of his confidential personal and political
friends that he will not be a candidate
for the presidential nomination in 1904
He stated that he valued his life and his
health more than he did any political
preferment He said that the two ma
tional campaigns he had managed as
chairman OF the national committee had
done more to break down his health
than had twenty years of an active busi-
ness life. Senator Hanna told of his ex-
periences in the campaign just closed in
which he was compelled on several oc-
| casions to accept help in leaving the
platform at the close of an address He
said that he was so constituted that he
could not take complacent part in the
campaign, but gave up all his time to
it, became nervous, lost sleep and kept
in the fight until he collapsed. The sen
atOr stated in positive terms that he
could not and would not allow his name
to be used as candidate for the Repub-
4 lican presidential nomination in 1904.
nor would he seek reelection.

LONG AWAY FROM HOME.
Forty-eight Years Ago Boy Left His
Parents but Finds Them.


Arkansas City, Nov. 15.-The Traveller
says:
Persons who have been up town dur
ing the last three or four nights have
noticed an old man selling medicine on
the street corner. He wears long ham
and looks like wild westerner- This
man has quite little story. and he told
it to a Traveller reporter
He is W. S. Hooser. and is 6S years
old. He was born in Litchfield. Ill.
and attended what was known as the
Burford school house. His parents
were only in their teens when he was
born. He lived with them until he was
nearly 20 years of age. One day a
younger sister told his parents false
hood concerning him, and the father
took the young man and gave him
thrashing. The beating was a severe
one. and the youngster was severely
hurt, SO much SO that his back sus-
tanned permanent injury. He was laid
up for several months. and as soon as
he got out of bed he left home, and
until a week ago last Friday had not
seen his parents since that time.
He has Travelled in every country on
the globe and his stories of the sights
he has seen are very interesting.
He landed in America from Europe
last September, and decided to hunt up
his parents. He went to Litchheld. but
could get no definite information. He
learned, however, that they were in
but was not successful until he struck
Ponca City. He happened to ask a po-
liceman if he knew man by the name
of Hooser, and the officer replied he did.
After a little more conversation, dur
ing which he told his story, the police
man took him to the house. The par
ents were in bed, the time being after
night, but they were aroused, and the
son walked into the house. The father
looked at him moment and then cried
MY God, my boy!" The mother was
almost overcome with joy and a very
affecting scene took place.
The father is past So years of age.
and the mother nearly that old.
Hooser visited with his parents for
several days, and is going back for an
other visit.
He helped to build the first house in
Wichita, and built the first house In Ell

Frisco's offer to Feather Weights.

New York, Nov. 15.-Only one thing
will prevent the battle for the feather
weight championship between Terry
McGovern and Young Corbett being
fought at San Francisco; that is a
larger offer from some other club when
the bids are opened at Cincinnati to-
day. This IS not believed at all likely
by the representatives of the fighters
here. Both Corbett and McGovern arc
anxious to have the contest come off
and the $4,000 offer made by the Off
Gals of the San Francisco Athletic club
will probably be accepted. The San
Francisco club has already been Grant
ed the license by the board of supervi-
sors to hold professional boxing show
during the month of December. and on
that account will get the preference
over the others. Both fighters will leave
for the battle ground within two weeks
to get into condition for the encounter.
Corbett will start with his sparring
partner, Willie Fitzgerald, after his
fight with Billy Maynard in Philadel-
mia November &c.
