Senator Marcus Alonzo Hanna died at 6:40 o'clock Monday evening at the family apartments In the Arlington hotel, af ter an illness extending over nearly two months, filled with apparent re coveries, followed by relapses and finally drifting Into typhoid fever, which, in his weakened condition, he was unable to withstand. When the end came all the members of the senator's family were In the room except Mrs. Hanna, the sen ator's wife, and Mr. and Mrs. Dan Hanna. Mrs. Hanna had left the room only a few minutes before. . MARCUS ALONZO HANNA. United States Senator from Ohio. Born at New Lisbon (now Lisbon), Ohio, Sept. 24, 1837. Has lived in Cleveland since 1852. Is head of the firm of M. A. Hanna ft Co., coal deal ers; director Globe Ship Manufactur ing company; president Union Nation al bank; president Cleveland City The last sinking spell began at ex actly 6:20 o'clock. Drs. Carter and Osier were then in attendance. They did not conceal the fact that life was about to end, and all members of the family were sent for. Mrs. MeCor mick, one of the senator's daughters, and Miss Phelps were present when the end came. Mr. and Mrs. Dan Han na were the first to arrive and they withdrew immediately to the chamber of the senator's wife, to sUmmon her to the bedside. It was while they were absent the senator breathed his last. There were no dlstreslng incidents attending the last moments. It was a sinking spell which terminated in ten minutes. Just after his eyes closed in death, Mrs. Hanna was able to come into the room. She bore up well under the or- deal and showed .calmness and bravery. over the hotel like a flash. The lobby was crowded and a score of friends were watting In Mr. Dover's room. No attempta were made to restrain grief. Senators Fairbanks, Scott and Kit trldge broke down. General Dick wept his sorrow at the loss of a friend who had been a brother. 80 it was that conversations were a curious admix ture of whispers and choked sobs. Spontaneously outbursts of unstint ed tribute were heard on every side. Men who are acknowledged leaders of political parties, kings of finance and commerce and men selected to serve In the highest positions In the nation, were among those who expressed the country's immeasurable loss. It is likely that Bishop Leonard, of the Northern diocese of Ohio, of the Episcopal church, and formerly rector of St. John's church, In this city, will conduct the services. Senators and representatives visited the hotel throughout the evening and many of the' dead man's friends were admitted to the death chamber. WASHINGTON. (Special.)

No business will be transacted in elth- The courage which has been dis played by Mrs. Hanna was the subject of the greatest surprise. She has been In almost constant attendance on her husband, though realizing fully there was no hope for recovery. Neverthe less, the remonstrances of the physi cians and the added imploring of her children that she take some rest waB unavailing until late In the afternoon, when she was attacked by a violent headache. She was given a narcotic and then she retired to her chamber, but requested that a call be sent as soon as there appeared any change for the worse.

Senator Foraker will an nounce the death of his colleague, and will offer resolutions of regret and for a committee to take charge of the funeral arrangements. A committee consisting of twenty senators will be named by President Pro tern. Frye, and the sergeant-at-arms will be directed to make the necessary arrangements for the funeral services both here and at Cleveland. The senate will then ad journ.

There will be an official funeral In the senate chamber at noon on Wed nesday, the body lying in state in the senate marble room In the morning.

It is expected that three special trains will go to Cleveland Wednesday afternoon, one with the body, accom panied by the senator's family, another with the senators who desire to attend the funeral at Cleveland, and another for the house of representatives. 3 Markings of the Moon Probably even In prehistoric time men have noticed the face of the "man in the moon." Plutarch noticed it and even wrote a whole book about the face in the moon. But besides this, many other objects are supposed to be visible. The dark markings on the aurface are likened by the Chi nese to a monkey pounding rice. In India they are said to resemble a rabbit Newspaper Work In Russia. Newspaper work in Russia is not pleasant. The government spends more money on Its press censors than on Its schools. Last year eighty three papers were suspended for varlons periods, and twenty-six were forbid den to accept all advertisements, while 259 editors were told they could have a short vacation In Siberia If they continued their methods of re viving various public questions.

Haw to Get Along with That Naoas eary Incumbrance, a Husband. country vicar In the old country waa noted for his excellent fatherly advlca to young couples he wedded. He had printed cards of advice, which ha used to distribute, besides giving guidance verbally. One of the cards was for the man and the other for the woman. That to the woman ran as follows: "When you marry htm, love him. After you marry htm, study him. If he is" honest, honor htm. If he is generous, appreciate him. When ne is sad, cheer him. When he te cross, amuse him. When he Is U.lkatlve, listen to htm. When he Is quarrel some, ignore him. If he la slothful, spur him. If he is noble, praise him. If he Is confidential, encourage him. If he Is secretive, trust him. If he is Jealous, cure him. If be cares naught for pleasure, coax him. If he favors society, accompany him. If he does you a favor, thank him. When he deserves it, kiss him. Let him think how well you understand him, but never let him know that you 'man age' him." THE END OF THE WORLD. t, jrloua Theories as to How It Will Be Brought About. Speculations concerning the man- Br in which life on the world will come to an end are as various as they are Interesting. Here are some of the latest theories: As the Interior of the earth grows gradually cooler, the waters on the surface will sink and be absorbed un til the exterior of the globe is a parched and uninhabitable desert. An other theory Is that the water will en croach on the land, eating it away un til the oceans entirely cover the sur face. A more picturesque theory holds that our world Is bound eventually to collide with some one of the in numerable comets that are tearing Ir- ' responsibly through space; or the sun's heat may suddenly become so In tensified that the earth will be shriv eled up like a moth in a candle flame.

For It la always the expression of hatred for a thing hopelessly coveted. Who sat irizes humanity? None but he who, not having the common human ad vantages, is obsessed with admiration of tbem. Who satirizes plutocracy? The pauper who Is warmed by the no tion of wealth. Who satirizes aris tocracy? The man who wishes he had been born an aristocrat Thackeray wished that; and the Marquis of Far Intosh was one of the natural out comes of his wish. Max Beerbobm la the Saturday Review. No Heaven-bent Mob For Him. At an evangelistic service at Glas gow the preacher at the end of his ad dress cried: "Now all you good peo ple who mean to go to heaven with me, stand up!" With a surge of en thusiasm, the audience sprang to their feet all but an old Scotchman In the front row, who sat still. The horriflod evangelist wrung his bands and, ad dressing hint, said: "My good man, my good man, don't you want to go to heaven?" Clear and deliberate came tbe answer; "Aye, Awm gangln' but no wl' a palrsonally conducted palrty!" RATS' SENSE OF, SMELL. Can Detect Presence of Cat From a Long Distance. "I have observed recently a rather curious thing with respect to the re lationship between cats and rata, and it has led to a rather Interesting re flection," said a man who takes much interest In animal life. "For a while the rats overran my place. At night there was no such thing as quiet around the house. They would scam per across the floor, bump up and down the steps and cut all kinds of capers. We secured a cat. and from the very time the cat appeared on the place the rats began to get scarce. There Is nothing curious about this fact In itself. But to my personal know I I'd go the rats have never seen the rat. The cat has remained on one floor, and the rats on another. There has been no chasing and no conflict between them. What I want to know Is how do the rats know the cat Is on the place? The Inquiry has caused me to lndulgo the more Inter esting reflection: How far can a rat detect the presence of a cat by the senso of smell? Evidently at consid erable distance. Else the rats at my place would not have known of the cat's presence." Now Orleans Times Democrat. ECONOMY NATURAL WITH HIM. Uncle Informs Reggie That the Trait Is Inherited.

"Don't ever wear out your morn in' rlo's when yon can save 'em as well as not. I remember how you pa used to lay his chaw of to barco on the window sill when he went to rat, ho as not to wasto it.

The century-old practice of ringing Btorrington church hell at 8 o'clock at night has been stopped by the vicar. A romantic story attaches to the ori gin of the ringing of the bell.

She walked In tbe di rection whence the sound proceeded, and reached home In safety. In token l of ber gratitude sho made arrange ments for the bell to be rung every night at 8 In perpetuity, and left an acre of ground for the uso of the per son tolling the bell. Ixjudon- Express.
