“Happy Days Waring." died at his
home. 231 Fountain avenue, in the
Best .low low: section, Friday alter-
noon. from Bri ht‘s disease. He had
been soriouslyl l but a short time. and
although many of his intimates miss.
led him. they did not know that his
condition was dangerous. He had
been a sufferer from the disease for
some time. '
Mr. Waring was. perhaps. one of,the
best-known men in the Eastern Dis-
trict. He invented the phrase. “Well.
here’s happy days." it traveled all ov.
or the country. and at one time scarceg
ly a drink was taken-by men about
remark, "Well. here's happy days." it
was heard roughout the country, and
thousands of people who uttered it
had not the slightest idea as to where
it came from. .
Mr. Waring was born in the Eastern
District about sixty-nine years ago.
He wok part in the Civil. War, and
when the war was over he returned
to the Eastern District. where he did
nothing in particular. He was often
seen in the local police court. and had
believed that benevol- passed any ex-‘
animation. “in those daysithore were‘
no civil service rules to encounter. it

car one day and appear in the courts
as a lawyer the next. Mr. Waring
