Death Of Geo. Bllllr.

This community was greatly shock.
ed OH Sunday morning by the an
nOuncement that kind-hearted, jOvial
Geo. Buhr, who was everybOdy's
friend, had died at eleven o'clock on
Saturday night, at his hotel, of heart
disease. He had been i'll for several
days, but no one supposed he was 81
near the end of an active and useful
life, and the news caused pain and
regret to our entire city, where he
was universally esteemed as an hon
CRADLE, upright citizen.
Mr. Buhr first came to this city in
1857, and worked at his trade of
shoemaker with Messrs. Bayer &
Kaltenbrun until 1860, when he went
to Brazil and for several years was
engaged in peddling merchandise in
that country, in which business he
was successful and returned to this
city in 1867. Shortly afterwards he
opened billiard parlor in the Cap
ital Hotel, which he conducted for
about two years, and when the great
err portion of the square upon which
the City Hall now stands was de-
stroyed by fire in 1868 he purchased
lot adjoining the Baltzel property,
upon which he erected building to
which he removed his billiard par
Tor and continued to run it as such
until 1880, when he remOdeled and
added another story to it, and opened
it as hotel This building was de.
strOyed by fire in November, 1888,
and he erected the present handsome
building upon its site The Buhr
Hotel soon became as popular with
the travelling public as its genial
proprietor long had been with all
who knew him, and he was fast
building up Il prosperous business
when the fell destroyer claimed him
as his own.
His funeral took place on Monday
afternoon at three o'clock, from the
Church of the Good Shepherd, and
was largely attended. Branch S3,
Catholic knights of America, of
which he was a member, and the
colOred employees of his Hotel turned
out in body to pay the last sad
tribute of respect to his memory
He leaves widow and one son to
mourn his loss, who have the sympa-
thy of large circle of friends.

The Yellowstone Bridge.

Major Logan received yesterday =
copy of the report of the House CON-
mittee on commerce, to whom the bill
authorizing the construction of .
bridge across the Yellowstone river at
this point WAS referred. The report IL
concise and to the point, and is as
follows: "Your committee suggest
amendments striking out sections o
"and Z. AS thus amended the bill
meets the approval of secretary Of waP
land contains the restrictions and
reservations usual in such cases ana
I'VE recommend its passage" The
sections stricken out refer to the appro-
priation of SIS 900 to aid in constrcu-
ton and the appointment Of an on
Ger Of the army to superintend the
work, neither of which are essential
to the life Of the enterprise and which
were not relied upon by the inoorpor-
ators as probable to be granted. Al
amended by the committee the bill b
sure of q passage and 1t is believed
that Delegate Toole will be able to CALI
1t up for early action 80 that the pre-
liminary work can be commenced

What the loss Is cannot be esti-
mated. There was good quantity of
freight in the store room, ON which
there were charges of about $500.
Among the freight was three cases of
clothing, some household furniture,
billiard table, express matter belong.
ing to the Wells-Fargo Express Com
pany, valued at about $500. and con-
siderable merchandise which was re-
ceived yesterday afternoon. The bills
for the freight were destroyed and the
only record Of what is lost is the men,
DRY of the billing clark and the others
connected with the depot. The money
was in the safe and some book tickets
and mileage was also packed inside.
The safe Is not thought to be fire
proof, and what damage was done will
be ascertained to-day.
Roadmaster Wyman happened to be
around and took a hand-car up to
Keogh to telegraph Superintendent
Ainslie, who is west. The telegraph
wires on the eastern end were soon
attached to the instrument. which
was saved. by Mr.. Jacobs and Mr..
Griffith, operators. and Mr.. Worst,
line repairer. The track was not dam
aged to any extent, the trains cross
ing all right. The Northern Pacific
carries insurance on all buildings
owned by II along the line, estimates
being made at the first of the year,
and that it was fully insured is very
probable.
Much sympathy is manifested for
Frank Timing, whose loss is consider
able. He had some valuable property
of his own about the depot, but his
first thought on discovering the fire
was to save what he could of the COM
pauy's property and his records. His
conduct during the fire is deserving of
the highest praise.
Messrs. Moore and Dalzell and
Messrs. Jacobs and Griffith worked
like slaves to save property ard did
good work.
There was a case of dynamite in the
depot and when this was whispered
about, those who were standing al
close to the fire as was comfortable, re
treated in hot haste. The dynamite
burned without exploding.
The fire started about 7:45 o'clock
and at $50 only charred masses and
ashes remained to show where the
depot stood.
Over one thousand people were out
to witness the grand fire display.
Line Repairer Worst had a room In
the depot, and all the clothing he pos
sessed, except what he had on hi.
back, was destroyed.
s. A. Pepper had billiard table In
the depot. Night before last he had II
insured for $500.
Geo. il. Scott, who has just arrived
from the east with the intention OF
building and locating here, lost all his
household goods and trunk contain
ing his personal effects.
A case of coupon tickets was de-
stroyed.
Geo. r. Milburn was unfortunate In
having his household goods in the
depot, they having recently arrived
from Washington Territory.
The depot was built in 1882 and. WA
about 25x3OO feet In size, built of wood
1t was the largest on the Yeliowston,
division of the road. though 1t was ,
rather cheap affair. Its facilities fo
handling freight were first class, and
the Office was all that could be desired
but the waiting room was small ant
not what it should have been.

NIAGARA FALLS, November 2S.-Geo.
Haz let and Miss Sadie Allen, of Buffalo,
went through the rapids and the whirlpool
this afternoon in the torpedo shaped bar
rel used by Haz let and Potts last summer.
They were in the rapids and whirlpool five
minutes, and were taken out of the eddy
on the Canadian side Just below the whirl-
pool, three quarters of an hour later in
good condition.
The start was made from the "Maid OF
Mist" landing on the Canada side. When
the barrel reached the maelStrOm 1t shot
right into the center of the pool max
ing two Seq. or three turns. l.eav-
ing the pool the barrel followed
the current out toward the Canadian shore
down to the outlet of the pool, where it got
into large eddy and bObhed around for
half an hour. Friends near by shouted to
the occupants of the barrel, when
Hazlett opened small door on
top of the barrel and Frank
Lawson threw 4 rope from the shore which
Hazlett secured and the barrel was tOweCl
ashore. After coming out of the barrel
Hazlett and Miss Allen had tramp of a
mile and half through the brush and
over bOulders before reaching the top OF
the precipice.
Miss Allen, when she appeared at the
the ferry, ready to enter upon the peril
Gus Journey wore neat walking dress.
Taking off her hat and jacket and throw
ing n shawl over her head she stepped
lightly into the barrel, through the
manhole, tucking her garments closely
about her and laughingly remarked, Come
George, Jump in, I'm fixed Soon after
Hazlett stepped into the craft fastening
himself in the opposite end to
that occupied by Miss Allen.
Just 80 minutes from the time the barrel
was towed into the river it reached the
whirlpool. Miss Allen and Hazlett re-
turned to Buffalo this evening.
Miss Allen is n respectable girl, Il years
old, petite brunette and very pretty.
