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 l

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-

city, the famous arboriculturist; Will—
iam M. Laffan, publisher; Mayo W.
Hazeltine, literary editor, and E. P.
Mitchell and F. 14. 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
the Tribune lasted until 1862. Then he
accepted a subordinate position under
Secretary Stanton in the War Depart-
ment.

President Lincoln called him the
" "eyes ofthe' 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 VVil-
son he wrote a “Life of Ulysses S.
Grant,” and edited with Rossiter J ohn-
son “Fifty Perfect Poems."

IS CORBETT A QUITTER?

_.o Good Reason Why He Shouldn’t
Accept Muller’s Challenge.
New York, Oct. 20.—“Jim” Corbett
should accept Peter Maher’s challenge
at once andfight 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 f‘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. ' -

Plutt 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=M'r. McKinley, urging that the
latter at once make public 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
sv'as the burden of the conversation.

Jailed for HlsffiiDog‘s Sake.
Paterson, N. J., Oct. 20.——As a result
of the efforts of the police to bring de- I
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 at-
iord to pay the money, and his children
were so attached to the dog that he

ould not send it away.

London, Oct. 20.-——The funeral of Ed-
ward, Langtry, husbandflof LilyLang-
try, who died in the asylum for the in-
sane at Chester Friday night, took
place yesterday. ' .

Mrs. Langtry sent a wreath tied with
large silk ribbons of turquoise and

The People ofthe Norwalks
Say We Are Right.

In the climate of sudden changes
there prevails a disease, almost un-
known in the old world, which has been
called the American National Disease.
Its many forms have various symptoms
annoying alike to the sufferer and his
associates. This disease is catarrh and
by millions it has foryears been consid-
ered incurable. Many pretended
"cures” promised relief—no time stated
—-only to disappoint the user after he
had used enough to give the manufac-
turers a. good profit: They held out
the promise of a. cure in the future,
only to fail after many dollars had been
spent. But there is a remedy that. has
relieved and cured millions of cases of
catarrh, thousands of them right. here
in New England. The proprietors took
many hundred free patients in the Nor-

' walks to prove to the people of these

cities that California Catarrh Cure
would instantly relieve and cure ca-
t-arrh surely and quickly. People from
N orwalk, South N orwalk, and as far
away as Stamford are giving their tes-
timony and it is all one way, California
Catarrh Cure has triumphed. The Na-
tional disease is no longer incurable.
Catarrh, disagreeable and nauseating
can be cured and has been cured right
here in N orwalk.

Note this endorsement and be doubt-
ful no more. One of the people who
got a. bottle of California Catarrh Cure
at Plaisted’s Drug Store on December
18th, was Mrs. A. B. Freeman who
lives at 8 Hanford place. After a.
thorough trial, she says: “I have suf-
fered a great deal with severe head-
aches caused by catarrh; my head was
studied up and my throat also troubled
me greatly. I got a bottle of'California
Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s Drug Store
and it has helped ,me very much in
every way; it has cleared my head and
keeps it clear, my throat is well and
my headaches have gone for good. I
must say it is a wonderful medicine,
and I am glad to recommend it. ”

The greatest preventative of grip, in
fiuenza, tonsilitis, and all mucous dis-
eases is C. C. C. All dealers, 50 cents,

DEBS ON PU LLMAN.

In a Speech to the Clonkmukers He
Refers to the Dead Mllllonalre.

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 thatI 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
shouted a cicakmaker.

“Yes,” said Debs; “he is now on the
same footing of equality as his former
wage 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 tl‘en told the cloakmakers that
he bore Mr. Pullman no malice.
