1.5 MR. DANA’S FUNERAL.
)The .New York Press Club Attend
- His Funeral in a Body.
New York, Oct. 20.‘—In honor of the
memory of Charles A. Dana the officers
and members of the New York Press
Club attended the funeral in a body.
The services were held in St. Paul‘s
Episcopal Church, in Glen Cove, L. I.,
at 11.15 this morning, and were con-
ducted by Rev. Dr. William R. Hunt-
ington, rector of Grace Church, this
city, assisted by Rev. John Gamack,
rector of St. Paul’s, Glen Cove. They
were simple in character. The pall-
bearers were ten of Mr. Dana’s closest
friends—Theodore Hitchcock, treasurer
of the Sun Publishing Company; Prof.
Arnold Arboretum of Harvard Univer-
CHARLES A. DANA.
sity, the famous arboriculturist; Will-
iam M. Laffan, publisher; Mayo W.
Hazeltine, literary editor, and E. P.
Mitchell and F. 1". Church, editorial
writers of the Sun; Justice Willard
Bartlett, of Brooklyn; Frank Bartlett,
Gen. James H. Wilson and Chester S.
Lord, managing editor of the Sun.
The absence of more than a brief
announcement of Mr. Dana's death in
the Sun was due to this request made
to his son:
“Paul, when I am gone don’t have a
long obituary of me .printed in the
Sun. Simply announce my going away;
that is all.”
Charles Anderson Dana was born in
Hinsdale, N. H., Aug. 8, 1819. He went
to Buffalo when he was 14 years old to
take a clerkship in his uncle’s dry-
goods store. Six years later he entered
Harvard, but was not graduated. His
eyesight had failed him.
.He became a member of the Brook
Farm Community, combining manual
(labor and the discussion and study of
philosophy. He took his first lessons
in journalism there.
. Mr. Dana became the friend and co-
worker on the Tribune with Horace
Greeley in 1848. His connection with
theTribune lasted until 1862. Then he
accepted a subordinate position under
Secretary Stanton in the War Depart-
ment.
President Lincoln called him the
"eyes of the Government at the front."
After the war Mr. Dana returned to
journalism. His first venture was the
Chicago Republican. It started in 1867.
On Jan. 27, 1868, he became chief share-
holder in the New York Sun and editor-
in-chief. It was Republican at first,
but when Greeley ran for President it
became a Liberal Democratic, paper.
Recently-it became again avowedly a
Republican paper, and this was one of
Mr. Dana’s last acts in shaping the
policy of the paper.
Mr. Dana was a great reader, and
found time to write and edit books. He
edited the New American Cyclopedia,
and made the collection of poems
known as the “Household Book of
Poetry.” With Gen. James Grant Wil-
sdn he wrote a “Life of Ulysses S.
Grant,” and edited with Rossiter John-
son “Fifty Perfect Poems.”
IS CORBETT A QUITTER?
l‘o Good Reason Why He Shouldn’t
Accept Maher’s Challenge.
New York, Oct. 20.—“Jim" Corbett
should accept Peter Maher’s challenge
at once and fight him for $5,000 a side
and the championship of the world, or
else do the same cowardly trick as
Fitzsimmons did by retiring from the
ring.
Every sporting man in this country,
since Maher issued his challenge to
fight Corbett, claims that Corbett is
supposed to fight Maher just as much
as he is shouting that Fitzsimmons
should fight him, and unless he does
so sooner or later “Pompadour Jim"
will be looked upon as a quitter.
There is not a chance on earth of
Corbett being able to form an excuse
for not fighting Maher. As Maher is
not the champion of the world. and
furthermore has repeatedly stated that
he would not accept it by default, he
should therefore show the American
public that he is still a genuine fighter,
and not a coward, by accepting Ma-
her’s challenge and fight him for the
championship.
Corbett by meeting Maher would not
only make friends all over the world,
but he would also be able to make
thousands of .dollars before the fight
was decided. -

Plait Urges McKinley.
Washington, Oct. 20.—Congressman
Fisher, of New York, was with the
President yesterday. It was said that
he came as an emissary from Senator
Platt to Mr. McKinley, urging that the
latter at once makepublic a letter in-
dorsing ‘Gen. .Tracy and the Platt
ticket and asking the Republicans of
Greater New York to 'vote for them.
This Mr. Fisher denied, but he ad-
mitted that the New York situation
was the burden of the conversation.
Jailed for His Dog’s Sake.
Paterson, N. J., Oct. 20.—As a result
of the efforts of the police to bring de-
linquen't dog owners to time, Thomas
O'Hanlon was sent to jail yesterday
for ten days for failing to pay his dog
license. He said that he could not af-
ford to pay the money, and his children
were so attached to the dog that he
‘ould not send it away.
Mr. Langtry at Rest.
London, Get. ZOE-The funeral of Ed-
ward Langtry, husband of Lily Lang-
try, who died in the asylum for the in-
sane at Chester Friday night, took
place yesterday.
Mrs. Langtry sent a wreath tied with

' fawn, representing her racing colors.

The ceremonies took place in the afte

and were attended by a large 1:..1 .-
of priests and prelates from all 1:11".
of the country.
Among those present were Arch‘ 31‘1—
ops Martinelli, Keane, Ryan, Vi’illiams,
Chapman, Corrigan, Ireland and 11'. or—
dan; Bishops Maes, Horstmann, Pren-
dergast, Foley, Hogan and Beava, and
Mgr. Maginnis, of Jamaica Plains; the
Rev. Dr. Lavelle, of New York Cathe-
dral; the Rev. A. P. Doyle and the Rev.
Francis M. Howard, of New York, and
the Rev. Sylvester Malone and the ReV.
Father‘Conname, of Brooklyn. The
ceremonies consisted of a speech by
Archbishop Keane, the blessing of the
robes by the Cardinal and the profes-
sion of faith, and an address by Dr.
Conaty.
The speech of Archbishop Keane was
' especially important because it is be-
lieved to reflect the views of Pope Leo
regarding the university. He dwelt
..mphatically on the fact that the uni-
versity is to be regarded as an Ameri—
can institution. It was the first time
Archbishop Keane had spoken in the
university since he made his farewell
address a year ago. He said:
“When I went to Rome the Holy
Father said to me: ‘All theSe whisper—
ings and rumors which have been told
me regarding the university are lies,
manufactured by men who hate not
only 'the university but me, by re—
fractaires who hate my policy. I will
show them by my treatment of you
what I think of them and of the uni-
versity.’ The Holy Father has always
approved the course and the teachings
of the univ ersity.”

015135 ON PULLMAN
In 11 Speech to the Clonkmakers He
Refers to the Dead Millionaire.
New York, Oct. 20.——Eugene'V. Debs
delivered his oft-repeated speech on
“Social Democracy” at a mass—meet-
ing of the east side cloakmakers .in
Everett Hall last night. At its conclu-
sion he said:
“I once sent an open letter to John
D. Rockefeller, telling him that I could
marshal 50,000 unemployed men on the
Chicago lake front. I was ridiculed be-
‘cause I never received an answer, but
I did not expect one.
“One of these angels is dead!”
shouted a cloakmaker.
“Yes,” said Debs; “he is now on the
same footing of equality as his former
\Vage slaves. Death is a social Demo-
crat. The time was when Pullman had
nothing to arbitrate. Now comes the
time when Death has nothing to arbi-
trate.”
Debs then told the cloakmakers that
he bore Mr. Pullman no malice.
