Marcus A. Hanna.

In the death of Senator Hanna the
entire country suffers great loss. 1t
can not be computed and Is not con-
Hned to the Republican party of which
he was the acknowledged leader and
had been the guiding spirit for several
years. The Democrats mourn because
a great American is no more. All
recognized his sterling character, his
great ability and unswerving honesty
and integrity.
The life and character of Senator
Hanna are known to everyone in this
country that can read. The last eight
years he has been constantly In
the public eye. During that time
he was the target of the most scath-
ing abuse and criticism ever heaped
upon the head of public man. The
most vicious and y:rulent came from
within the ranks of his own party. 1t
deceived many for a while, but as the
n0bleness of the man and the falseness
of the charges of his enemies was re-
vealed, he rose triumphant over all
all attacks and in the end enjoyed the
confidence of the public to an unpar-
allied degree.
In the difference between capital
and labor he was the mediator to which
both appealed, and his decisions were
always eminently, just and fair. Or
ganized labor recognized him as its
best friend. He was generous just
and strong man, a. patriotic citizen
and one of Americas greatest.

ocean travel was not so bad after all.
She sat placidly in her steamer chair

had never met count and she watched
him intently as he passed among the
crowd on the deck, with pleasant
word and smile for every one f'
Her interest was not lost upon the
count. Presently he dropped into the
chair beside her with remark about
the weather. Now Helen had been eau
toned by her aunt not to make the
acquaintance Of strange men on the

that she had been permitted to under

did not open the Nttle leather case with
