TUK NOUKOLK NKWS ; TODAY. FKIUUTAllY li ) , HUH. Universal Sorrow Expressed tit the Great Man's Death rfl ' a ; HE WAS HERE THREE YEARS AGO And Ever Since That Day , October20 , 1000 , the Chairman of the Republi can Party Has Had n Warm Spot In Norfolk's Heart. It was with a sorrow ruul regret which could only bo surpassed by the loss of a lending citizen of the city that the report of the death of Sen ator Marcus A. Hauna was received In Norfolk. Although prepared for It by the bulletins which had gradually grown moro and moro discouraging regarding the senator's condition , the ! actual fact that ho lived no moro came as a blow to every citizen , regardless of political party. The moro Intense was the cloud of gloom which was cast over the city , from the fact that Mr. Ilanna paid Norfolk a visit a little over three years ago , during the ilnal action of the presidential battle a visit that will novcr bo forgotten. It was on October 20 , 1900 that Murk Ilanna came to Norfolk. Ho only stayed a little while but no moro rousing reception was over accorded any man by the people of northern Nebraska , than that which was given to him. Remaining in the city but a few short minutes , the man to whom the national congress today pays Its greatest and deepest tribute of re spect made thousands and tons of thousands of friends. Ho came with a reputation. Ho wont away owning a big , warm spot in the heart of every man , woman and child who stood in that mammoth crowd and saw his i smile. Made Friends. Ho came to Norfolk with a thou sand and one ugly cartoons to depict his facial features. What ho really was ; how ho really looked and what , after all , was his manner of speech was unknown to the go-rat majority of western people. They had built pic tures in their imagination concerning the great politician , the capitalist , and the most successful manager and lead er of men that has been produced In many a day. And scarcely a man who saw the senator upon that day for the first time , wont away with the Impression he had carried previous to that morn ing. When they had seen the man from Ohio and had hoard him talk , they threw up their hats for Mark Hanua. The Day. The coming of the republican man ager had been advertised far and wide through northern Nebraska. Every incoming train from early morn ing on had brought hundreds and thousands of visitors who were anx ious to get a glimpse of the noted pub lic character. By 10 o'clock a crowd as big as any that ever saw a circus in the city , had gathered Into Norfolk. Shortly before 11 the train bearing the party of tourists whistled In and rolled up to the platform at the union station. Mark Hanna and Senator Dolliver came out and a lusty cheer went up. A .reception committee esco. ted the guest of honor to a platform at the corner of Fifth street and Norfolk avenue. The speaker's platform looked like a tiny raft set adrift in a mighty black sea of humanity. Mayor Robertson introduced Mark Hanna. The instant ho began to speak , his round , good natured face lighted up with the cheer and humor for which he was so well known. And from that minute forth ho had moro warm friends in this section of the country than he could have counted In a day. Ho smiled and then ho spoke. The crowd listened eagerly to catch his every word. Ho did not deliver an oration. He just talked to the people that were there talked to them In a quiet , calm sort of way without a particle of what is popularly termed oratory. Ho just had a few little things to tell them and he did It just as quietly , just as deliberately and with just as much of effectiveness as though ho had been sitting at the sup per table and chatting with the people on the other side. But the weight of every word that came from his lips sank down deep into the minds of his auditors and pretty nearly every one who was there that day can distinctly recall the logic that he gave utterance to. Ho did not come before that throng as an eloquent man. Ho didn't use any gestures when ho spoke and not one word was strained for effect. Ho ; LV just began to talk It over with thorn like a business man who know the value of time ; and after he had fin ished , ho stopped. Just a Plain American. In starting out , Mr. liana said : "Fellow Citizens I fool moro than grateful for the compliment that has been paid mo on my visit to this state. I appreciate it all the moro fully because - cause I realize that I have been adver tised to appear with horns. I hope I won't bo a disappointment , but as a matter of fact I am nothing moro than a plain American citizen. I don t claim to use and different methods than those used by other American citizens , but will try to tell the noth ing hut the truth. " Then ho spoke a llttlo while upon politics as a business proposition. Be fore ) anybody realized II , the tlmo wns cut short ; the locomotive United Its whistle and Mark Hanna was taken away. Just before ho climbed up to the car platform , a bevy of school girls alongside the train caught IIH ! oyo. Ho stopped n moment and chatted with them In n happy , Jovial way , seeming to enjoy It as much IIH the girls themselves. No greater crowds over came to Norfolk than that which greeted Mark Ilanna. No greater man has eomo to Norfolk to see the crowds of northern NobraskniiH than he. SATURDAY SITTINGS. . D. McClow is in the city from E\v- lug. Hon. M. F. Harrington is In the city from O'Neill.

The program was extend ed to about twice its length , as the audience Insisted on an encore after each number. The singing , the In strumental selections and other mini- jors were of a high grade , especially creditable being the solo and ensem- jle numbers. The voices were clear and sweet and the numbers were highly pleasing.

[ Prom Wcilncmlny's Dally ] Harry Davis , a little , black , Impu- lent colored boy who has made trou ble for the police and for the people In whoso neighborhood ho unfortun- itely livcH for several months past , has nothing but the wnrm-hoartod gen- oro.slty of C.

Yesterday ho stole a lot of coal at the Braasch yards , just as lie has been doing for many weeks past. The dealer has grown u llttlo tired of the thieving and caught Har ry In the act.
