which had been left By the governor
signed in blank. and thus appointed
certain of,his friends, commissioners,
TO organize . new. county up the valley
of the Jim. Ordwayi was. very, hot
about the matter but the commissions
were In due and regular form, and tho
commissioners acted under them-snd
thus Crennan was practically goYer-

Funeral Rites.
Abridged from the Yankton Pre-

Abridged from the Yankton Press:
Mournful and Impressive were the
last attentions given by the people of
Yankton to their late townsman
John p. Crennan. At noon most of
the business places in the city were
closed and the various masonic bodies
and members of the militia and fire
department began to assemble at their
respective headquarters. At o'clock
these several organizations were stand
ing in column in front of the residence
of the deceased. The pail bearers,
eight members of De Molay command
cry Knights Templar. took the casket
from the house and carried it to the
hearse and the solemn procession
wended its way to Christ church, with
the fire department in the head, COM
pany NJ. D. N. G., following and st.
Johns lodge A. F. and A. M. immedi-
ately preceding the hearse. The
Knights Templar walked alongside
the hearse and the carriages of mourn
ers followed. At the church the
casket was carried within and placed
at the altar rail. 1t was beautifully
decorated with floral offerings. There
was plaintive music by the choir,
prayer was offered and the solemn
ritual of the masonic order was cele-
brated. The remains were then escort
ed to the Milwaukee depot and the
2:33 train boreaway all that was NOR
tai of one whose memory will outlive
the generation with whom he has
moved ana had his being.
