CROSBY STUART NOYES

influence of Mr. Noyes has gone throughout the dominions of our flag, and his place and prestige in the world of journalism was well shown by his prominence in the press parliament of the world at St. Louis. Every distinction shown one of our citizens reflects honor upon us all, and what Mr. Noyes has done and won outside of the District has benefited it as substantially as his service here."

Mr. Noyes was invited to address, as American representative, the World's Press Parliament in St. Louis in 1904, and he read there a paper on the "Journalistic Outlook" which was widely reprinted.

In 1856 Mr. Noyes was married to Elizabeth S., daughter of Reverend Thomas Williams, of Maine. They have four children living: Theodore W., associate editor-in-chief of "The Star"; Frank B., editor and publisher of the Chicago "Record-Herald"; Thomas C, news manager of " The Star"; and Mira C, Mrs. George W. Boyd, of Philadelphia. He is the owner of a beautiful country home named "Alton Farm" near Washington, in Maryland, where he spends a considerable portion of each year.
