That was a long, long timn ago, how

quite six, almoet ready to enter school.
Msry Kllzsibeth never could under

used to objerve In wide-eyed wonder,

WASHINGTON, May 28. Teeming with eloquence, combining

the most appalling marine tragedy of history, was the final and ofTidil

Smith of Michigan, Chairman of the Senate Investigating- CommUte,
