A Sad Death.

Last Saturday evening about 6:so
friends of Henry Seyffreth, of the CT
gar manufacturing firm of Burk &
Seyffreth, was found standing near
the National Hotel with his hand on
his head as il in great pain. He was
at once taken 10 his room and went
to bed. DR. Robb was summoned
and left some powders for him to
take. Later in the evening some of
his friends went to the room and
found Seylfreth in dying condition.
Medical aid was again summoned and
until eight o'clock on Sunday even.
ing every means known TO the doc
tors was used to restore consciousness
but 10 no avail as he died at that
time.
For several days he had been
drinking and is reported to have been
terribly respondent over the result
of the election. Saturday evening he
was seen in saloon and was appar.
emily well; soon after, he started for
the National Hotel and fell on the
way.
1t is supposed that he took an
overdose of morphine in an attempt
TO sober up. No reason is known to
his friends why he should commit
suicide and it is improbable that he
took the morphine with that intent.
Mr.. S, had lived IN Owosso for
about seven years. having worked AT
his trade for Gates Bros. and l.. +.
Burk, and later on going into partner
ship with Mr.. b. He was a good
workman and a man well thought of.
His age was Sycars. In response to
a telegram his mother and brother
came from Detroit on Sunday evening.
The body was taken to Detroit on
Tuesday. Brief services were held
by, Rev. X. K. Davies at the city hall,
and the remains were taken to the
depot by the Odd Fellows, of which
organization he was an active mem
Der. The pail bearers, from the
Patriarchs Militant were Messrs G..
+. North, Geo. Bennett, II A. Mid
daugh, Frank Dubois. Geo. Charlton,
and Levi Hyde. who went to Detroit
where the funeral services were held
and the remains buried with the |. O.
0. +. ceremonies.
A post mortem examination was
held and the jury rendered verdict
that his death was caused by NOR
phinc carelessly administered.

parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Hansen.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. Z. Snyder were do
ing business in Junction City today.
Miss Bertha Rock we'll, of Junction
City, spent several days with her grand
mother, Mrs Geo. Snyder last week.
Miss Lizzie Mccarthy spent Sunday

We are glad to know that our young
friend, Dennis O'COnner, who was so
dangerously sick last week, is able to
be up again.
Prof. d. A. Holmes, of Carlton, for
merly of this city, was shaking hands
with friends here on Monday.
The sad intelligence of the death of

q Change of Firm.

The well known firm of hardware
dealers, Dunlavy Sc Roe, was today dis
solved. W. FL. Roe retires from the
firm, the name of which is now John
Dunlavy & Co.
Mr.. Roe has made many friends
while in business here who will be sorry
to see him retire from the firm but will
wish him well wherever he may locate.
The head of the new firm, John Dun
lazy, is business man of eminent
ability and solid worth and will carry
on the establishment with its old-time
success.
The new firm will have associated
with it, as general manager and sales
man, the veteran hardware merchant,
W. H. H. Bonebrake, who has been as
ISOLATED with Abilene's business life
since the '70s. Carl Potter will, of
course, handle the books of the firm,
his services being too valuable to be
dispensed with.
The firm of John Dunlavy & Co.
starts out under most favorable aus
pices and we predict for it a prosper
Gus future, it having connected
with it men of unquestiOned worth and
ability in commercial circles.

A STATE CONVENTION.
Abilene Secures the State Convention

Abilepe Secures the State Convention
OF the Y. NJ. C A., Oct. II, 1888.
For some weeks the members of the
local Y. M. G. A. have been working
hard to secure the State convention of
the organization for Abilene. Thurs
day the State committee met at To-
peka and after canvassing the claims
of the cities applying, among them Sa-
lima and Junction City, decided to hold
the convention in Abilene, commencing
October 18th.
This is one of the largest meetings
held in Kansas and Abilene may well
feel proud of having secured it. 1t will
bring to the city over 500 young men
from every part of the state, young
men will do the city good by their pres
ence and their words.
Last year the convention was held at
Wichita and there were $50 in attend
ance. Scores Of local societies have
been organized since then and the at
tendance this year may be put down at
nearly 500.
The gentlemen Of this city who have
carried this selection through deserve
much credit for their work. 1t is an
evidence of their untiring interest in
the cause and their love for Abilene
that they have won this prize SO strong
ly sought for. 1t win do more to put
the local Y. NJ. c. A. to the front than
anything that could have been proposed.
