his heart must be filed with a solemn salts
faction in reviewing the growth of the church
from its pioneer beginnings, to the imposing
results of to-day.
On every hand there is glorious evidence
of the serene and benefcent force exerted by
this Jealous minister of God.
Taking this retrospect with him, it seems
as if no other hand could have so successfully
managed the affairs of the church from that
early date to its present suspicious status.
No wonder, then, that the faithful gave so
much prominence to the Bishops anniver-
sary, for it is only fitting recognition of a
career fraught with extraordinary merit and
accomplishment in the most arduous and
noble sphere of action
The work of Bishop Grace is an important
fact in the history Of the state, and the
record of it cannot be forgotten in earthly
documents while the state exists But the
beautiful animating spirit of the Bishop, his
benevoence, his charity, his generosity, and
his surprising gentleness, these must go
with him hence-and herein lies the sad
touch which invests all our mortal triumphs.
These transcendent, everlasting and incom-
municable treasures having done the SOULS
work, go with it.
Hence comes our feeble human cry stlong
hve"-the life whose best estate goes with it
after all it was ordained to do for itself and
humanity is DONE So must we say of the
revered Bishop now in his SEVENTEEN year.
May his benefcent and valuable life be pro-
lOnged because his neOD1e love and bless him
for traits which can be only be memory
some day when the good Bishop has entered
upon his reward.

afternoon by Deputy Coroner Hurst and a

fortunate man who was run over and killed
on the Omaha road near the Seventh street

must have been hard of hearing, and the tes-

Death of Frank Breuer.

At II o'clock yesterday forenoon Mr..
Frank Breuer, well known resident and
business man of st. Paul, died at his resi-
dence at Lake Como.
The deceased was born in Germany on the
23d of February, 1889. In 1850 he landed
in Chicago, mere boy, and came to St. Paul
in 1857, when he commenced clerking for
Nicols & Dean and remained with them for
eighteen years. In February, 1880, the de-
ceased formed a partnership with William
Rhodes, which continued up to the time of
Mr.. Breuer's death. In 1871 the deceased
married Miss Barbara j. Dony, of St.
Paul, who died Nov. 5, 1874, leaving
three children, who now survive. His
second marriage was to Miss Nellie Griffin,
on the 22d Of February, 1876, by whom the
deceased had one child which survives.
In way Mr.. Breuer has been quite prom
inent in some parts OF the affairs of the city.
His prominence was limited mostly to the
fire department in which he held the highest
positions that could be attained. He was
one of the Oldest of the members of the
Pioneer Hook and Ladder company which
at one time monopolized almost all the popu-
lar attention of the people of the city. In
1S70-1-2-3 he held the position of chief engi-
neer of the fire department. In 1S70-1-2 he
was one of the aldermen of the city. When
the fire commission was first created he was
appointed one of the members
and was chosen president, which
position be filled with homer and credit to
himself. His life was insured for $40, 900.
Mr.. Breuer was always conservative in his
views, very quiet and retiring, and never
forward and thrusting himself to the front.
He was always kind and considerable for 9TH
er people, seldom, if ever spoke harshly OF
others, attending quietly to his own business
and sought interference with none.
The funeral will take place from the church
of the Assumption at o'clock, tomorrow
Saturday morning.
The Leiderkranz singing society, of which
the late Frank Breuer was charter member,
will attend his funeral in a body on Saturday
morning and sing several pieces.
A meeting of the Pioneer hook and ladder
company members will be held this evening
in response to the call of John Lunkerher-
mer, to make arrangements for attending the
funeral in body. The deceased was an orig
inal member of the company and was its
captain when elected chief of the fire depart
ment
1t is also understood that the funeral will
be attended by detail of officers and men
of the present fire department.

A pound of bananas contains
more nutriment than three pounds
of meat or many pounds ofpotatoes,
while as a food it is in every sense
of the word far superior to the
best wheaton bread. Although
it grows spontaneously throughout
the tropics, when cultivated its
yield is prodiglous, for an acre of
ground planted with bananas will
return, according to Humbolt, as
much food material as thirty.three
acres of wheat or over one hundred
acres of potatoes. The banana,
then, is the bread of millions who
could not well subsist without it.
In Brazil it is the principal food Of
tue laboring classes, while it is no
less priced in the Island of Cuba.
Indeed, IN the latter country the
sugar planters grow orchards of
it expressly for the consumption Of
their slaves. Every day each
hand receives his ration OF salt fish
or dried beef, as the case may be,
and four bananas and two plan
tains. The banana-it should be
