Conn., September 6. —Charles Hopkins Clarke, noted editor, died last night after jan illness of several months. He was in his 79th year, and had been editor of the Hartford Courant since 1900, with which paper he was connected throughout his newspaper career of 55 years. He was a director of the Assoclated Press for 36 years. The funeral will bs Wednes- ay. . Tributes to Mr. Clark were pald by Frank B. Noyes, publisher of The Washington Star and president of the Associated Press; Kent Cooper, gen- eral manager of that organization; Melville E. Stone, {its counselor; George P. McLean, senior United States Senator from Connecticut; Arthur Twining Hadley, president emeritus of Yale University; Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Colum- bia, University; William Howard Taft, Chief Justice of the United States, and Adolph 8. Ochs, publisher of the New York Times. Grew Up With Paper. As a young man recently graduated from Yale College Mr. Clark, seeking & start in life, applied for work at the office of the Courant. It so hap- pened that at the time the man of all work in the editorial rooms was away, and the editors, Gen. Joseph R. Hawley and Charles Dudley Warner, were obliged to work overtime. They ‘welcomed the assistance of the young ocollege man, who was taken on for temporary employment. That temporary job became per- manent and resulted in an uninter- rupted service of more than half a century, during which Mr. Clark ad- vanced through the various editorial positions to editor-in-chiet and finally to president of the Hartford Ceurant Co. and editor of the Courant. Under his direction it broadened and expanded, the circulation grew steadily, and in 1918 a Bunday edition was {ssued, proving & success from the start. Mr. Clark’s interest in yolitics, en- couraged during his early training in newspaper work, _was oontinued througout his life. He began attend- ing the national conventions of the Republican party in 1888, when Ben- jamin Harrison was nominated for the presidency. Thereafter for several years he went as a newspaper man and then regularly as a delegate from Connecticut. He was elected a dele- gate-atlarge to the Cleveland conven: tion in 1824, Associated Press Director. ‘The Assoclated Press elected Mr. Clark a director in 1910 and re-elected him for succeeding terms. He also served on the executive committee. He was a_member of the Corporation of Yale University, a director of the Phoenix Fire Insurance Co., the Con necticut Mutual Life Insurance Co., The Ttavelers’ Insurance Co. and the Collins Co., and treasurer of the Wat- kinson Library and Wadsworth Athe- neum of Hartford. He had been a dl- rector of the Connecticut Reformatory at Cheshire since its establishment. Born at Hartford, Conn.,, he was the son of Ezra C! , & prosperous business man, who twice was elected to Congress. The son attended gram- mar_school and the Free Academy in New York City and upon the re- turn of his family to Hartford com- pleted his education at the high school and Yale, being graduated from the latter in 1871. Two years later he married Miss Ellen Root, PEERLESS FURNITURE CO.—829 SEVENTH ST. N.W.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS s Store is@ get our low prices and terms before they think of buying furniture.
