ALEX BUTTS IS DEAD.
Former Kansas Newspaper Man Passes
Away Suddenly.

Kansas City, March 4.-Alexander
Butts, associate editor of The Star.
died suddenly shortly before IL o'clock
last night at the home of his cousin,
Mrs. L. G. Taylor, 1898 Harrison
street Death resulted from oedema
of the lungs. He was 65 years of age.
Burial will be at Mr.. Butts boyhood
home, New Philadelphia, Ohio. Serv-
ices in Kansas City will be held at
Grace church at 4 O'Clock tomorrow
afternoon.
Mr. Butts was born in New PhiIa-
delphia. Ohio. Coming to Kansas in
the early sos, he became part owner
of the Emporia News, being associated
with the late Jacob Stotler and Frank
P. MacLennan. About seven years
later he entered the employ of the
Kansas City Star, where he remained
until his death
ALEXANDER Butts was a most likable,
1ovable man, gentle and generous,
kindly and considerate. He was al
ways doing and saying thoughtful
things and it made no difference
whether those concerned were in the
higher walks of life or among the low
ly. Those who mourn fill all ranks in
life and include newsboys and states

hearts of countless young men, or men
who were young when Aleck Butts
said an encouraging, timely word to
them when they were struggling as re-
porters or in other lines of endeavor.
AS a newspaper writer he was a
genius. There was never a better
paragrapher. His editorials were
graphic, smooth, polished, yet un-
strained. AS a writer of eulogies he
was probably unexeelled. An obituary
of a friend, or of one whom he ad-
mired was a classic.
His industry was phenomenal. At
times, when the write~ was with him
on the old Emporia News, he would
write and edit practically the whole
paper, news, editorial. local and tele-
graph, and it would be well done. His
Sunday sermons in the Star will be
missed by a congregation larger than
that in front of any pulpit.
He was a thorough journalist of the
old school who kept in touch with the
newest and best in the newspaper work
he loved. He liked work; he loved
workers. His constant cheer and
genial presence, as memories, will
continue to brighten the familiar paths
he has left.l

In a moment the speakers heels were
twinkllng in a brilliant Highland fling.
Excellent, en?' he called exultingly
to Mr.. Taft. Il was something of a
dancer when I was youngster."
For answer, the president steped smil-
ingly forward and those who were
present say the two executed several
steps of old-fashioned "hoedown''
that delighted everyone. Both were
putting when they finished.
Following the dancing, the president
led his men guests to the smoking room
on an upper floor of the White House
where an intimate talk was held in
which partisan politics is said to have
held no place. The women remained
III the east room.
Socially and politically the dinner
marked something of an epoch. Speaker
Cannon was never entertained at the
White House with an exclusive official
function, during all of the seven years
of President Roosevelt's occupancy, and
honor by President Taft.
Some days ago President Taft con-
ceived the idea of giving regular state
dinner in honor of the speaker of the
house which would be commensurate
with the dignity of that high Office
The affair was on the same social and
official par with those given regularly in
honor of the vice president, the diplo-
matte representatives and other dig
ritaries of the government. 1t is ex-
pected the presidents dinner to the
speaker will become a permanent in

An Object Lesson.

A certain miserly old man pull
ed up his horse and trap at the
door of a shop the other day and
beckoned to a seedy looking indi-
vidual who was singing in the
streets. Here, hold my horse a
minute" he said.
The singer stopped in the middle
of a verse and took up a position
at the animals head. When the
old gentleman came out of the shop
he bestowed a half penny upon the
man and then lost no time in
scrambling into the trap The re-
cipient, having gazed at the coin
for a moment, jumped on the step,
Take it back, sir, he remarked
tragically. 1T means ruin to you"

In Memoriam.

At 10:40 a. m. of January z,
1910, it pleased God to call from
our midst, May Leona Spalding,
youngest daughter of w. B. Spalding
and Margaret Spalding of Monroe
City, Mo.
Lena was born August 4, 1894,
near Lakenan, Mo-. and she was
just entering her sixteenth year;
her last illness being typhoid fever
This bright young girl was most
tenderly loved by her parents and
brothers and sisters who in this the
sad hour of their bereavment have
the sympathy of the community.
Lena was most highly esteemed
by friends and teachers. She was
bright in school, her dainty nature
being much attracted by music and
art in which she took a deep inter-
est.
She vas conscious to the last
which was a source of great cOnsO-
lation to those who watched at her
death bed. She partook of the last
Sacrament of Church of which
she had been a consistent member
all her life.
1t is said that Death loves a
shining mark" which seems truly
exemplified in the passing of little
Lena. Her bright spirit seemed to
bud on earth that it might bloom
in Heaven, where we have reason
to believe it has flown; and where
in the presence of the Beatific Wis,
ion of God and his glory, throughout
the endless cycle of eternity, we fee
sure that she will attain that high
degree of spirituality most pleasing
to the Divine Master. We feel SURF
while it is our loss that she died, i
is her eternal gain.
We hope only that it shall be tn
happy lot and privilege of us VIII
are left behind to meet her in tina
better land of love on the mornin
of the Great Resurrection.
