The Man Found in CIau Bank
Water Hole Disappeared More
Than Two Weeks Ago.
SUICIDE THEORY ADVANCED.
Wife Died Two Years Ago and He
Had Been Despondent Ever Since
Left boarding Place April 13 and
Had Not Been Seen since--LockeE
Found Upon His Person Contained
Photograph of Wife He Mourncd.

The body of the man found drown
ed in Koch's clay banks near Wood
bridge road yesterday by Walter Ma
thiasen, of Johnstone street, while
hunting frogs, was identified by Chief
Burke and Detective Huff yesterday
afternoon as that of Yens Peter Ham
son, ffty-six years old. who disap-
peared from his boarding place at
Hartford street on April 13.
The police received a report on
April II from Mrs. Anderson, of
Hartford street, that Hanson had
been missing for four days. A search
was made for him at the time but he
could not be found. When the po-
lice learned that a body had been
found in the clay banks yesterday
they at once surmised that it might be
the body of Hanson. Recorder Pick
ersgill acted as coroner and visited
the place. He gave permit to Under
taker Garretson to remove the body.
Chief Burke and Detective Huff found
a locket on watch chain on the
body which contained picture of
Hanson and his wife.
Last night Louis Hanson, of 335
Madison avenue, brother, called on
Undertaken Garretson and made ar
arrangements for the burial of the body,
which was taken to the yalut in Az
pine cemetery.
Hanson's wife died about two
years ago and he had been Respondent
since that time and t is thought pos
sible that he may have gone to the
clay banks AMI committed suicide.
The funeral will be held at the
cemetery at 4 o'clock this afternoon.

prime movers against the sewer is
Elisio Ricci, who has private sewer

Meeting with the sewer in Commerce

be built of 1S-inch pipe and is for the
purpose of connecting the sewers In
the various side streets. 1t is said
that the sewer will cost in the neigh

only small assessment on each
property owner.
The plans for the sewer are being
prepared by City Surveyor Forrest IT,
Smith, and the council may take act
ion on the matter Monday night. The
petition for the sewer has seven sign
ers and although the remonstrance is
to be presented, the sewer may never
the-less be built in case wooden

OF THE MARTYRED
PRESIDENT

The mind of the thoughtful person
may turn back to the scene at Buffalo
six years ago, when, after one of the
best beloved presidents of the Ameri-
can people had been stricken down
with the assassin's bullet, William
Mckinley lay dying in the Milburn
house. Pathetic indeed was the
description of that death bed scene,
when the stricken man asked that the
curtains be drawn aside that he
might see the leaves. that framed the
great trees with a lace work Of green
and were a token of the beauties of
the earth where he had been SO much
h0nored and whose activities and
glories he was soon to forsake. The
hearts OF the American people were
drawn irresistibly to his bedside and
shared with his wife and family the
sorrow Of that pitifuI tragedy. And
on the September day when the life
OF the President went out, 1t seemed
that the ordering Of things was iii
Indeed, when SO generous, kindly and
admirable spirit must be SO tragical-
~ withdrawn from the earth where its
benign influence had been SO potent
for good And not the least pitiful
element of the tragedy was the grief
Of the woman who had been his wife,
weak. i'll the ,bearer or many SORROWS,
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1907-05-29

needing every hour the patient and
thoughtful ministrations Of that de-
voted husband. The years have
passed. The memory Of the tragedy
has grown less distinct and the sor-
row of 1t less keen. The martyred
president lies at rest, with all the
honors possible at the hands and
hearts of his countrymen. But
through six years of long and bitter
sorrow that frail spirit Of woman has
survived-as truly a martyr to sor-
row as he was to the weapon Of an
assassin. Now, in the appointed time
Of Providence or at the time when,
Nature has exacted payment of the
debt which is her due from mortality,
she has been taken from earth and
her sorrowing is done: Her life was
clouded with many sorrows. In the
hour Of his triumphs she was little fit
to share in them. At the time of her
greatest need he was taken away
from her. Truly it is full of the sad
ness Of living and being, and would
seem to prove the incompleteness and
emptiness of the professions of the
materialists May we not find in it all
hope at least that the broken ties are
to be mended, the sorrowing hours
made glad and that reunion may fol-
low upon separation as the dawn upon
the darkness of the night?
