Martha Tracey HadIeY

Martha Tracey Hadley, the beloved wife of Rev. J. Perry Hsdley, died at her home in this city on Wednesday, February 2S. Funeral services were held at the Friends church on Friday afternoon at ? o'clock. The attendance was large, including large part of the population of Douglas. The stores were closed during the services. The iuterment was at the Douglas ceme- tery. There were many beautiful floral offerings.
 The passing of Mrs. Hadley brought sorrow to the people of Douglas. In this little Island town we have endured our portion of sorrow many times, when death or disaster had their sway. This time the sting was felt by every one. Nothing could be more pathetic than the love of the native people for this good woman. She had worked among them as teacher and friend aud they loved her we'll. In her death, they felt that each had suffered personal loss.
 No one will ever know the good that this woman did. Not only among the natives, but wherever suffering soul writhed under the torture of mental or physical pain, there she came with her earnest, yet modest, bearing and her hands were filled with offerings of love and tender sympathy. No pride of po- sition held her back. She only sought to be helpful where she could. How we'll she succeeded, volume of words could not tell. Knowing her modest disposition, we doubt if she realized that she was living a remarkably noble life, or that her works would build for her a monument.
 Martha Tracey was born at Alton, Iowa, April 6, 1878 When year old, she, with her parents, moved to Kansas where she spent her childhood and early womanhood. At the age of seven teen, she began her career as a school teacher, which occupation she followed for several years. When 21 years of age, she entered the Stella tFriends) Academy, at Cherokee, Okla, from which institntion she was graduated ia 1902. In the fall of 1903 she entered the Friends University at Wichita, Kas., in which institution she spent two years. Ou Sept. 18th, 1905, she was united in marriage to J. Perry Hadley, of North Branch, Kansas. Immediately after her marriage, she came with her husband to Douglas-under khs missionary board of the Friends

About twenty-five of the faithful met at the council chamber last Tuesday evening for the purpose of electing delegates to attend the democratic territorial convention at Valdez, March 29. ME. Martin was elected chairman of the meeting, and J. B. VanSice, sec- retary. Those present were enthusi- astic over the prospects of success this year both in territorial and presiden- tial elections. The delegates elected were M. E. Martin, Chas. H. Cosgrove, J. B. Van Slice, w. P. Powers, Leroy D. Ryus, Jas. A. Hart and Chas. Deppe. There is every probability that M. B.. Martin will attend the convention car rying the proxies of the other delegates from Ketchikau and nearby points, Ketchikan Miner.

"I believe that Alaska ought to have in the next congress representative who will be in accord with the domin- ant party; it is foregone conclusion that the congress and the entire nation al administration will be democratic. At the outset of my candidacy l au- nounced that my candidacy was sub. feet to the action of the democratic convention, and delegates to that con- vention have been elected with that un derstanding. If the platform to be adopted by that convention does not please me, I will not be nominated; if it does not please the people of Alaska will not be elected. If, therefore, 1 am elected, it will be on the platform of the democratic psrty."-Robert w. Jennings.

The following lines were adapted in memory of Mrs. Hadley, from poem written by Julia H. Johnson, and en- titled, "Her Sun Is Gone Down While It Yet Was Day." The lines were read at the funeral of Mrs. Hadley in the Friends church; A noon-tide sunset-not sad eclipse Like one foretold by saintiy prophet
 lips, But while the sun was high, and shining
 clear, The soul we leaned upon for help and
 cheer Passed on, along glory lighted way, Her sun gone down, the while it yet
 was day. We thought, indeed, our friend would
 surely wait Till evening opened wide the sunset
 gate; So full and strong, so warm her life and
 true, And, thus it seemed, so much remained
 to do. Why could she not have tarried all the
 day? How can her work fare on, and she
 away? O, human hearts, to cry and question
 thus; The answer comes in tender tones to us; The summons of the Master twas she
 heard: With ready spirit she Obeyed the royal
 word. The messenger was hastened by the
 King, This faithful servant of His own to
 bring, Since at high noon her full days work
 was done Her Masters plaudit and her kingdom
 won. "The missing of her" is our harder part, But not for her, the pang that rends the
 the heart; In the full radiance of day most fair She wrought all faithfully with utmost
 care; And we who saw and knew and loved
 her we'll, With all who felt the potent charms
 and spell Ofthat fine, gracious, regal womanhood Through daily life and influence un.
 6erstood, Can only say, "Thank God, she lived
 till noon. Her life and labor still remain boon." She let her light shine in her service
 sweet, 'Tis her memorial now, and 'tis com
 plete. For her-no slow decline, no long decay, God knew the signal hour, the better
 way; And called her higher-while it yet
 was day!
