Samuel Langhorne Clemens, whose humorous writings under the name of "Mark Twain" have earned for him a world wide reputation, was born In Florida, Missouri, November 30, 1835. His education was re ceived in the public school at Han nibal, Mo. After leaving school he worked for a time as a printer, and later became a steamboat pilot on the Mississippi river, in the early .'60s he went to Nevada to become private secretary to his brother, who had been appointed territorial sec retary there. He became city editor of a newspaper in Virginia City, Nevada, where bis gift of humor first attracted attention. He was afterward a miner in California. made a voyage to Hawaii, nnd be come a lecturer and writer of fiction under the pen mime of "Mark Twain." Ills first book was entitled "The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," and its success rapidly ex tended the writer's fame. His best lrnnwn In this country possibly was "Innocents Abroad." His surest title to fame generally Is believed to be "Tom Sawyer," and its companion volume, "The Adventures of Huckle berry Finn." In all. his books had a sale of more than 600.000 copies, and were translated Into six lnn minecR. Others among the better- known: "A Tramp Abroad. "The Prince and the Pauper."

Mark Twain's death removes from s the international Held of letters the creator of American literary humor, and one of its most distinguished -, litterateurs. With his passing the people of the world militant and persuusive doers of things alike have lost a gentle sympathizing friend and fearless champion.
