DEATH OF REV. J. IF. II ANN A. On Wednesday morning, March 16, the members of C.

of E. were shocked to hear of the death of again with the declamation. This was Mr. Edwards first attempt at public speaking and he should in every way feel satisfied. He showed a little inexperience in his movement on the stage and in the interpretation of his piece, but it was a good delivery.

T. F. Marshall's subject was "The Doom of Claudius and When Mr. Marshall exerts his voice it sounds somewhat strained to those unaccustomed to hear him speak. This, however, is natural with him.

Mr. Marshall easily won first. He had1 the best declamation, voice and appearance of the evening, and his interpretation and facial, expression were magnificent. If Mr. Marshall ever goes into the oratorical test, and he won't do our College justice if he does not, look out for C.

of E. Miss Kittie Edwards closed the literary programme. Her subject was "The First Settler's She held the close attention of the audience though it was getting late. Her piece was not so hard to speak but it was given in a pleasing and interesting manner. While the marks were being prepared the Philologic quartette sang two selections.

Mr. Hanna is so well known among the C.

of E. people that but little can be said of him that is not already known. His death will be regretted by all, for he was a warm friend of the College, and a worker in its behalf all the time he was in Emporia. He was kind and generous to all whom he knew, and would do anything in his power to aid those whom he knew, to be in need of help. College Life extends its warmest sympathy to his family in this their sad bereavement.

FOR YOUR CLOTHING Hats, Caps and Gent's Furnishing Goods, go to Rev. J. W. Hanna. Mr.

Hanna, for the past five years, has been connected with the College Home, and was well known throughout the city and surrounding country as an able minister. On Sunday, March 6, Mr. Hanna, soon after breakfast, was taken suddenly ill. The physician, who was immediately called, pronounced it apoplexy, and said his, recovery was very doubtful. But in a few days he seemed to improve and his family and many friends were much encouraged.

Saturday evening, however, he was taken worse again and never rallied from that time. He seemed to think he would recover and only made the request that in case of his death he should be taken to his old home at Mr. Vernon, Iowa. So Wednesdav afternoon brief services were held at the residence, conducted by Rev. F.

J. Sauerber, and at 1:30 a. his wife and daughter started with the remains for Mt. Vernon. Before coming to Emporia, Mr.

Hanna held several different charges as a minister, in all of which he has been spoken of very highly. He is also well known throughout the state in scientific circles as a man of very unusual ability and learning. For some years he has been at work on a Revised Astronamy, advancing some views that to many seemed peculiar, yet he showed a remarkable degree of learning. This Astronomy was published last year, and has attracted widespread attention. Mr.

Hanna kindly gave a copy -of his book to the library of the Col Lewis I mm tKBGoods always the best tiPrices always the lowest Special Inducements to Students. 509 Commercial Street, (Opposite Postoffice.)
