Charles Edmund Barker.
The Sample Case.


The readers of The Sample Case
who have been interested in the
short sketches contributed to these
pages by Charles Edmund Barker,
will be gratified to have the op-
portunity to gaze on the features
of this talented young man, as
portrayed in the accompanying
half-tone published above. Mr..
Barker isa native Buckeye, hav-
ing been born near Logan in Hook
ing county, in this state. He is
the son of minister, and after
receiving his schooling naturally
drifted into newspaper work, fret
on daily papers in Columbus, af-
forwards in GAINESVILLE, and sub
sequently again in Columbus. In
early life he began to develop a
tendency toward the writing of
fairy tales, yet before attracting
attention the Golfers of Uncle Sam
were considerably enriched in the
mail service, as he himself AYERS,
by the prepayment of postage on
MSS, both going and coming from
would-be publishers.
The success that has attended
literary efforts of Brother Barker
recently is but an index of what
the future has IN store for him,
and it is firmly believed by his
many friends that he will yet
evolve from his storehouse of fic-
tion proclivities an epic of pre-
tentious merit which will meet
with national success.
Bro. Barker has in a happy home
the inspiration for his life calling,
and being devoted to the best in
terests of the United Commercial
Travellers, is an important factor
in not only assisting in the pub
lication of The Sample Case, but
in promoting the tenets of Unity,
Charity and Temperance, as re-
vealed in the development of the
commercial fraternity.

Remarks on the Death Of Miss
Hortensia Felix.


lBy Rev. w. 8. Brlnkman, Marietta, Oh
Bereft father. sorrowing broth
ers, relatives and friends, we have
met on sad errand of grief to ex-
tend to those in sorrow tonight our
deepest heartfelt sympathy in the
sudden and unexpected death of a
beloved daughter, kind sister, a |
sincere and devoted friend.
She had come to this city to
meet and reside with friends for a
season and her visit and associa-
tions were so pleasant, she seemed
to be enjoying the best of health,
surrounded by her friends, she
suddenly without moments warn
ing, fell asleep in death, as the re-
suit of heart failure.
This sad and sudden happening
is a terrible aftiiction, painful and
heartrending to her dear father
and brothers, and to all who were
in any way connected or acquainted
with her. In the prime and midst
of life God suddenly summoned
her away into that rest that is
sweet, untroubled and peaceful.
We therefore mourn tonight on
earth but she is rejoicing in heaven.
But as sweet spirit from better
world she beckons and councils us
not to weep. "Let not your heart
be troubled" for our loss is her
infinite gain.
She is in the land of sunshine,
joy and smiles. We are still in the
vale of sorrow, tears and woe.
Questions like these might
arise in our minds: Why
did she de so youlg? Why did
her heavenly Father summon her
so suddenly and without even a
moments warning? But these sad
and perplexing questions remain
before us, as dark and searching
mysteries,
We cannot otherwise but re-
o. hn - -,
and say ooh Lord, thy will be
done"
Her young life evidently good
and useful, sincere and beautiful.
She was n christian, she had given
her young life to her God and
Saviour. He it was who suddenly
and quietly approached her in the
spirit of an angel and stilled the
beating of her heart which she had
already given to him in early
youth.
Her affections were bestowed on
those she loved, she in return was
loved by all who came in contact
with her, she was respected and
esteemed for her many virtues and
for her beautiful character.
Our sympathy goes out to those
whose hearts have been panied and
wounded by her death. May God
grant the good influence with the
sweet memories she has left be-
hind; may they prove as the sweet
fragrance of the rose that still
fingers around the beautiful but
shattered vase that has suddenly
fallen to the earth.
May her soul rejoice and triumph
tonight among the angels in heaven
and may we who are still in life
take this dispensation of providence
as a message of warming.
"That we know not what a day
may bring forth. -

PENNSYl VANEA PASSENGER MEN
PLAN ANTEFAER EXCURSIONS

Passenger chiefs of the Pennsylvania sNs-
TEN announced last night at the st. Louis
Club that the magnitude of the approach
ing International Exposition was sufficient
to confirm the idea that the best way Of
advertising the Fair were early excursions
at low rates during May. 1891.
J. r. Wood. passenger traffic manager
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
and Z. A Ford. general passenger agent
of the Pennsylvania and Nandalia lines,
told the management of the Exposition at
the dinner in honor of the visiting railway
men that there was no other way to make
the people of the East believe in the great
ness of the Worlds Fair.
They freel confessed that their eyes had
been opened by the visit to St Louis. They
did not expect to behold such vast enter
prise. A series of monster excursions. at
extremely low rates. early in May. would,
in their opinion. enable these visitors to re-
turn to their homes and spread the news.
Wood and Ford made some sweeping
statements about what the Pennsylvania
intended doing in connection with its serv-
ice to the Worlds Fair City. They init,
mated that big things mi-ht be expected
OF the Pennsylvania system.

RETURN OF THE PRESIDENT.

Mr. Roosevelt's return to Washington marks the
close of a holiday of unusual duration, in the
course of which the President has addressed many
thousands of his countrymen and greatly increased
the liking for him as man among the voters of the
States visited.
This, indeed, is conspicuous result of Mr..
Rooseves Western junket that it must be considered
in all frankness important phase of the existing
political situation. The Presidents tour has
rally advanced his personal movement TO the
Republican nomination to the presidency in 1904 He
is of the best good mixers" and he has mixed
freely for nearly seventy days past His is to be
considered in the nature of campaigning effort.
AS such it has shown strenuous President at
his utmost exercise Of strenuousness in the task of
making friends and generally strengthening his grip
the high office which he hopes occupy for four
years more.
Fortunately. Mr.. Roosevelt returns TO work as
the National Chief Executive with his own political
fences in such condition that he devote much of
his attention to the performance of his official duties
His action in personally insisting upon Endorsement
by the Ohio Republican State Convention has had its
effect and the party organization in other States is
falling into line with cheerful unanmity In fact, it
begins to look if Mr.. Roosevelt need not fur
Their exert the crook of finger in his own behalf
candidate for nomination to the presidency. Most
Republicans agree that he has command of the situa-
ton.
Thus 1t is that the Presidents return to Washington
may mean that he will devote vigorous attention
public business. He has had quite lengthy holiday
from his official duties in Washington, and. though it
is true that he worked watchfuly in advancing his
personal political fortunes during this period 1t should
be that he will the labors of President of the
United States with renewed interest. His thoughts
do not now need to be fully taken up with his own
affairs candidate. Hence the demands of official
d,t;os,
enjoyable. perhaps, up to the very time next
year when the President shall again have enter the
arena and once more reveal his mettle as good
| mixer" and hustler for Theodore Roosevelt.
