readiness to go. He suffered
much during the last few months

the very last. He spoke to the
loved ones by his bedside of his
readiness to go and his last
words were: Don't you see
them coming in gangs? Do you

But Heaven resounds with

New York. Oct 31.-Snow failed to
chill or rain to dampen the enthusiasm
of thousands who turned out to hear
and applaud the heads of the state

them, and with few exceptions com
pleted their days programme, winding
UP with night speeches, Hearst at
Rochester and Hughes at Oswego.
The speeches We're all on familiar
