Thousands among the millions that John Bunny has entertained with his grimaces, his expansive smile, his tongue-in- cheek grotesquerie, feel that in his passing they have lost a friend who Referring to the suggested candi-|12id awake at night devising new dacy of Editor Holly, of the Sanford revels for their delectation.
