RETURNED TO EARTH.
All Wing Buried According TO the
Customs of HIS People.

Customs of Hiss People.
Seven sober-faced Cinnamon gathered in
Leigh's undertaking rooms yesterday after
noon to take last look at the face of their
deceased countryman, All Wing, whose
death was noticed in the GLOBE of Thurs
day. The body had been neatly prepared
for the grave and lay in plainly-trimmed
coffin of stained wood. In the coffin were
placed skull cap containing the dead
mans combs and other toilet articles and
in his hand he held a piece of linen with
which, according to the Monaghan
belief, he was to shield his face from the
Great Omnipotent as he passed through the
gates of heaven. At 3 o'clock the lid of
the coffin was screwed down and the flu
neral procession, consisting Of two carriages
headed by hearse, took up its march to
Oakland cemetery.
AT THE CEMETERY
a grave had been prepared for the reception
of the body near where the remains of a
Celestial, who died in the city two years
ago, lay. The cortege drew up and the
mourners alighting, Wah Loo, Quong
Wong, Ra Dish and Sam Lee lifted the re-
mains from the hearse and gently
lowered them into the cath.
On the coffin rested bunch
of white roses, lilies of the valley
and myrtle sent by the Women's Christian
association. Before the dirt was thrown
upon the coffin To Loo, the chief mourner,
took bundle of fire sticks and the private
papers and accounts of the deceased, and,
piling them at the foot of the grave, ignited
them, and as they were consumed the cind-
ers floated over and fell into the grave, rest
i'm tho anffin Wban fhQ Milo had hQQn
reduced to heap of smouldering ashes To
Loo took bottle of whisky, and, removing
the cork, spilled it in circle
around the ashes. A dish of
boiled rice. cold pork and an I'M
cooked chicken were placed near the
grave and the ceremonies were over. Not
tear fell on All Wings coffin; not word
of regret at his departure was uttered; the
only one to mourn
IS A MOTHER,
who probably has not yet heard that death
has bereft her of her only son and support.
He went to the dust from whence he came
much as dog would go. Assistant Super
intendent Wilson and Secretary Hutchins of
the Y. NJ. G. A. were present. They said
All Wing had been member of a Sunday
class in their association, and had been
a diligent student of the Bible. When
he was stricken down with the fatal dis
ease, Mrs. Bailey of the Woman's Christ
ian union did what she could for the suf-
ferer. but he could not overcome his inher-
ent prejudice against the American physi-
clans and refused to be treated by them.
All Wings friends say they will consult
with the company in China that transports
bodies and his remains will probably be eX-
humed in the spring and returned to his ma
tive country. The expense of such move
would be about $1,000

They Want Wafer

The West Side Citizens union met in
Rebholtz hall last night in secret session, all
reporters being permitted to disport them
selves in the cleaning outside. The session
was long and must have been interesting
as the members came out of the hall with
flushed faces. From what could be cleaned
outside it was learned that the questions OF
getting water into the Sixth ward this win
ter and the opening of various streets were
the all-abSOrbng tOpics.

shoe Club.

shoe Club. s E
The ST. Georges Snowshoe club will have
its first run this evening, leaving the head
quarters at the. Ryan at o'clock. No
snowshoes will be used, but the run will be
made that the members of the club may be-
come acquainted with each other and be
stirred up to even more enthusiasm for the
winter sports. The precise route has not
been determined, but it is likely that Cen
trail park will berone of the places visited
The officers of TIE club are anxious that all
members who can join in the initial run.
Steps will be taken at once toward the cul-
tivation of the social element in the club
To this end piano is to be placed in the
room and regular system of informal en-
tertainments begun. In this the ideas
gained by the directors of the Palace and
Carnival association at Montreal will be de-
veloped to the end that the visiting clubs
may be given a suitable reception and en-
tertainment on short notice during the win
ter. 1t is said that work ON the park, lay
ing out the tobOggan slides and making the
necessary changes in grades, etc., will be

He Suddenly Disappeared.

Last Monday night Harry Sinks, who
has been employed as collector by the St.
Paul Odorless Excavating company, disap-
peared from his house on Fillmore avenue.
and so far as can be learned, has not been
seen in the city since. On Monday he Dor
rowed S25 of Conrad Statz, giving his wife
50 and keeping S23 himself. He leaves a
wife and two children in straitened circum-
stances. The superstition is that he became
discouraged, as his wife is confirmed in
valid. and it has been continual struggle
for him to support his family and make
both ends meet. He is tall, able-bodied
man and has peculiar cast about his right
eye. His whereabouts is a mystery.

Light Artillery Drill.

Last evening the Emmett light artillery
had competitive drill at the armory, which
was witnessed by considerable number Of
interested spectators. The judges were
Adjt. Gen. MacCarthy, Lieut. Shay and r.
j. Marcoe. After the whole company had
been well drilled in the general movements,
seven members of the organization were
selected for the competitive drill. These
seven were A. w. Lux, j. Mccoy, Thomas
Calvin, William Murphy, Frank Dowlan,
James Prendergast and CD. Stedler. Capt.
JIG. OBrien had every reason to feel much
pleased with the manner in which his COM
pany went through the various difficult
movements. When the seven had fin
ished the drill the judges found that
the result was so nearly even that they
could not fully decide, and they therefore
called upon the squad to submit to still
further drill. r. J. Sheedy was awarded
the prize and honorable mention was made
OF r. Mccoy. This prize was designed by
Capt. O'Brien, and is very beautiful one
1t is of gold and consists of the seal of Min
nesota on Maltese cross. pendant from
two crossed cannon, suspended from gold
bar, upon which were the following letters
and words: ''E. l.. A., for excellence in
drill; presented by Thomas D. O'Brien. -
The affair was an exceedingly interesting
one and pleased everybody.

Fair for the Church.

The ladies of the First Baptist church
held successful tair at the chapel yester-
day and last evening. A beautiful array
of fancy work by the ladies of the church
was the most attractive feature, and was
displayed in two booths-one containing
proofs of the artistic skill of the young
ladies of the church circle, and the other
the handiwork of the older members. At
tractive art needlework was also arranged
in other parts of the room, and a candy
booth found many patrons. Lunch was

a SOUTHERN GIRLS GIFT.
How a Southern Officer in Want
Touched a Noble Heart.

How a Southern Officer in Want
Touched a Noble Heart.
II tell you. boys" said an old Southern
army officer at the Merchants yesterday,
''those Southern girls for rich beauty and
loyalty take the cake. You've got pretty
girls up here, but there isn't one in hun
dred OF them that takes a cents worth of
interest in the financial condition and politi-
cal phases Of the country. Down South it
is different. Especially in war times was
it so, and a soldier, whether he was of low
or high birth, so long as he wore the uni
form of the Confederacy, was at once ten
dered the warmest favors OF the Southern
ladies. [ remember once we were en-
camped On the Rappahannock and had
been invited to dine with widow lady
and her daughter at a neighbor-
ing house. We had been on
long march and L hadn't had an oppor-
tunity to wash my shirt for four weeks
1t was the only shirt | had and | concluded
to wash it in the river before going to the
dinner. l went down and washed it and in
the middle of the stream L noticed rock
and | thought it would be a capital idea to
lay the shirt on the rock to dry, while l
swain around and disported myselfin the
water. l did so, and when went to get
my shirt, thinking it would be dry, l found
that the wind had blown it off the rock and
it had disappeared
DOWN THE STREAM.
Here was pretty go. A splendid din
ner staring me in the face and no shirt to
wear. But good dinner in those times was
not to be lost, so l put on my military coat
that buttoned high up around the neck and
tying handkerchief around my throat |
gave the impression that | had boil on my
neck and went to tie dinner. 4 beautiful
young lady got opposite ME at the table and
after Il few moments conversation
with her, l noticed that she
suddenly cOlored up and looked confused
| didn't understand what the trouble was,
and began to stir myself to find out. Hap
pening to glance down, saw that the front
of my coat was unbuttoned. The button
holes were well worn and the button had
slipped out. | knew then the cause Of the
lady's discontinue, and, without word,
buttoned the coat and went on talking as
though nothing had happened. The lady
soon recovered from the shock and l spent
a delightful afternoon. Just before l took
my departure the young lady left
the room and as [ stood in the
hall bidding her mother and sisters
goodbye, she came down stairs and hand
ing me package requested me not to open
it until l reached camp. pledged myself
and went to camp. When l reached my
tent with no little curiosity l opened the
package and found neatly-laundried
lady's night dress. You see the girl had
taken in my condition and in her eagerness
to do something for me had given me this
garment, which was the best she could do.
Those are the kind of girls we have in the
South and any man who wouldn't honor
and respect them should be shot.

STODDARD & HARPER PROTEST.

They Don't Want Faber & X napp
Relieved and Claim the Contract.
The board OF public works met yesterday
afternoon and proceeded in body to view
Prior avenue, from ST. Anthony avenue to
Marshall avenue and St. Anthony avenue,
from Albion avenue to Union.
A communication was received from
Stoddard & Harper, the contractors, pro-
testing against the relief of $4,000 for
which Faber & Knapp, the st. Clair street
contractors, had asked being granted. The
bid put in by the latter firm was S1S,50O,
and in their appeal to the council for relief
they claim that they had made mistake Of
Sc, 900, which would bring the amount Of
their bid up to S24, 800. Stoddard & Harper
claim that if this is added the bid of Faber
& Knapp will be S702 higher than theirs,
which was S23. 79S, and that they being
the next lowest bidders should be awarded
the contract. The communication was con-
sidered and placed on file.
The assessment for opening an alley
through block 10, st. Paul proper. was con-
firmed.
The board adjourned to Monday, Dec. IA.

DIR. JOHN STEELE DEAD.
One of ST. PauI:s Oldest Physicians
Dies at Home.

Dies at Home.
DIR. John Steele. one of St. PauFs oldest
physicians, died yesterday afternoon at
about 4:3O o'clock at 227 East Tenth street,
aged rs. His death had been expected
almost daily for some time by his family
and his attending physician, DR.. Abbot t,
his son-in-law. His death was due to the
ntirmities OF old age more than to any
specific disease.
DR.. John Steele was the son of Gen. James
Steele of Pennsylvania a distinguished officer
in the war of 1872. Three of his uncles were
active participants in the war of the revolu-
ton and his father would have been, but was
too young being only small lad at school in
Lancaster. Pa. DR.. Steele was born in 1909
in Chester county, Pennsylvania was edu-
Gated in Lancaster. and studied medicine with
q relative, DIR. Samuel Humes. He graduated
at the Jefferson Medical college IN Philadel-
phia, and at once entered upon large prac-
tice in Strasborgh near Lancaster, where he
remained until the health OF his wife required
him 10 change climate. When ne had resolved
on removing to this place he telegraphed TO
his brother-in-law, Gen. Fl. H. Sibley, to pur-
chase home for him. The general pur-
chased two lots and house at the corner OF
Cooper and Tenth streets, upon which he
lived and died. He was married
to Catherine McClung who died
little more than a year since, they
| having lived together fifty years within few
weeks. The date of his removal to this city
was 1855. At once he entered upon the duties
of his profession, taking a high position and
| having very large practice. In late years
his health has not been robust and he has
| been compelled to withdraw, to great ex-
tent. from the active duties of life. He
leaves four children, three daughters and q
son. dis eldest daughter is married 10 Capt.
