The Services Conducted Over the Remains of
the Dead Journalist at His Old Home.

The funeral Of the late Lewis d. Hayes oc-
Cured at the home of his mother, in Attica, yes
terday morning, at IL o'clock. The services.
which were conducted by Rev. j. G. Reed, as
sisted by Rev. T. Meredith, both Of Attica, were
simple and transformations, but most impressive.
The Rev. Mr.. Reed, a silver.haired and veneer
able man, who had known the deceased from
childhood and was related to him,
spoke to the friends who had gathered
at the family home to pay their last respects to
the one they so highly esteemed, dwelling i'm
pressively upon the lesson of the mournful oc-
rasion. presenting its phases of love, patience
and nope beautifully and simply. A fitting and
pleasing tribute was paid to the many excellent
qualities of character of the deceased, and the
services closed with the singing, by a choir of
sweet voices, of the hymn, my heavenly home
is bright and fair" with the refrain. 1--WE are
going home" The people who had
known him in his native town
from his earliest years then viewed the
face of their dead friend for the last time, and
the remains were borne to their final resting
place. On the casket rested two beautiful floral
tributes from the members of the press of In
dianapolis, one representing an anchor and the
other a pillow. At the head of the casket, while
the remains were at the house. stood q tribute
from the associates of the deceased on the
journal, in the form of a large desk of green
leaves, lying upon which was q tablet, and on
this was traced Dec. %. 1886, at the top of the
page and IL. d. H." at the bottom. A hand
formed of white flowers rested on the tablet and
from between the fingers, with grasp loosened,
fell a pen.
The funeral services were attended by a large
number of the acquaintance and friends OF Mr.
Hayes living at his old home. besides a party of
twenty-three from Indianapolis, who went to
Attica yesterday morning in a special

In Memory of Mr.. HAYES.


After the funeral services at Attica Yesterday.
the committee appointed at a meeting of the
members of the Indianapolis press to prepare a
memoir on the death of Mr.. Hayes, designated
Mr.. G.. G. Matthews and Mr.. W. Fl. Smith as a
subcommittee to draft a suitable memorial.
The following is the report as adopted:
The members of the press of indianapolis, in mem
ory of the death of Lewis d. Hays. feel it is due and
has sustained in his death, their sorrow that he
should have been thus cut off IN the very prime and
vigor of his manhood, and their deep sympathy with
his family and friends. who knew him more intimate
ly and loved him so deeply.
Death at all times brings grief; but when it Gem es to
one who has but fairly started, as it were, on the jour-
ney of life, when it strikes down one who gives prom.
Use of being useful to all his fellows, it brings sorrow
not only to those who are connected with him by ties
of kindred and affection, but TO all others, for 1t is a
common loss to humanity.
Lewis D. Hayes was one who, in the short years he
had lived, gave promise of future great usefulness.
He adorned the profession he had adopted. and with
his pen gave to the world the thoughts of Ai~Salti-
waited mind in a way to carry pleasure and instruc-
ton. The world was the better for his having
been in it. What he might have become had
he lived the allotted span of mans life, we
cannot tell. but we have reason to believe
that his influence for good would have grown with his
years, and that for himself he would have wrought
out an enduring fame. AS a worker in the arduous
routine Of daily journalism, his unremitting industry
was exemplary and his success positive. AS a poet,
he gave in numbers exquisite expression of an imagi-
nation that sought the pure and the ideal. That
he has not been spared is one of the mysteries Of
Gods work we cannot solve, but we must believe
that, in his wisdom, it is best as it is. Full OF life.
hope and talents. he is gone. We know full well
that no words of ours can assuage the grief of his
kindred, yet they have our sympathy and our prayers
that the same Providence that has taken away their
loved one may keep, shelter and comfort them. guild
ing them at last to that home where He shall wipe
away all tears, and love and life shall be eternal.

COOKING A f;UUT. :.

The sun was not over two hours high
when we reached the camping place on
the lake, and 1t was necessary to utilize
every moment to prepare for night and
get supper for three hungry men and
ravenous boy.
The doctor had insisted on having
fresh trout for supper, and soon found

ily-loaded trolling-spoon in the depths of
the lake, where the salmon-trout lie in the

The declining sun lit the tree-tops on

they knew the lake was the result of their

Aftera long, quiet reeling-in, the fish made

Nothing OF the kind happened, and In
