The funeral of Carl Davis took
place in the NJ. e. church last Thurs
dav afternoon. 1t was II of the
largest attended funerals that ever
occurred in our city, and the floral
offerings were the most profuse and
costly. After the religious services
were concluded at the church, the
Masonic order took charge of the
body, conveyed it to the grave md
there gave the beloved brother a
Masonic burial with all the appro-
pirate ceremonies. The largely at
tended funeral, the beautiful floral
offerings, and the general feeling of
sadness all 60 to show the high es-
TEEN in which Carl was held in the
community in which he had been
| so long a resident. His friends can
hardly realize That he is sleeping
beneath the sod in the Cemetery
they look for his familiar form
traversing our s%treets-Lut alas! he
has been truly borne to the grave
and sleeps the sleep of the just, and
is prepared for the resurrection on
the great Judgment Day. Peace to
| his ashes.

Omaha and South Dakota

The Surveyors Of the @. & S. D.
X. K, reached this city last Satur-
day. in charge of Chief Engineer w.
W. Olney, having completed the
survey from Forest City to this
point. The survey isalmost a straight
line from Forest City to Elk Point
and Ponca, via Blunt and Mitchell,
passing right through the heart Of
the best country in South Dakota.
Engineer Olney says that the line
from Forest City here can be built
cheaper than that length of road
can be anywhere else in the United
States. The line enters this city on
a curve to the South, cutting off a
small corner Of the Weston farm,
running down Harrison street by
Lon Hasson's. The depot grounds
will no doubt Re located on Mayor
Talcott's farm near the old slaught-
er house in the western suburbs of
the City. From here the line runs
directly south to the river crossing
over to Ponca. Omaha, the Chicago
of the west, has long wanted a direct
connection with the State of South
Dakota, and this line presents the
best and most practicable route into
the heart Of the best portion of this
State, and there is no point on the
Missouri river between Bismarck
and Omaha where a bridge can be
built cheaper than at the crossing at
Ponca. The Surveyors were TO
reach Ponea last night, and from
there will continue on to Omaha.
A delegation Of our citizens went to
Ponca yesterday and had a meeting
with the people there in the inter-
ests of the road, and arrangements
were made to send delegation from
Ponca and several points in South
Dakota, TO Omaha, to lay before the
business men and jobbers of that
city the great advantages this line
OF road will be to them. There is
no good reason why this road should
not be built within a tWelye-month.
