THE END OF LIFE
Avery Bullock, a Well Known Young Man
Of this City, Died at ILLS To-Day
Of Typhoid Fever.

At Ills a. m. to-day, Avery Bullock,
SON OF Mr.. and Mrs. n. G. Bullock, de-
parted this life after four weeks linger-
ing illness from typhoid fever. His end
was easy and peaceful. Deceased was
born in Winneshiek county, Iowa, Au-
gust III, 1862, and with the exception of
. few winters spent in Nebraska and
Dakota, had lived in Iowa all his life
until coming to Madison three years
ago. Since coming here he had been
engaged principally as hotel clerk at the
Lake Park and in that capacity became
popularity known, not only in this city
but to many people from abroad. He
was Of a lively, energetic and kindl, dis
position and a general favorite with all
his people, and especially his own fami-
ly who are very much Frustrated with
the sad event. The death of a young
man in the prime OF life is, indeed, a sad
trial to loved ones wrapped up in his
promise Of the future, and 90 it is in the
case Of Avery Bullock. Another fact
which makes it peculiarly sad in this
instance, was his engagement to Miss
Anna Thompson, an exemplary young
lady, who stood by him in his last days
with the most faithful womanly devo-
ton, and suffers, yer as keenly as the
intimate relatives of the deceased, the
supreme anguish Of the moment.
The family is too unsettled at this
writing to fix the exact date of the fun.
eral, but it is not probable that it will
take place before Tuesday next. The
remains will in all likelihood be inter
red in Madison cemetery, as the family
is now permanently settled here. De-
ceased was an only son, and leaves
father, mother and two sisters-Mrs. w
w. james and a younger sister, Rena.
Two uncles, 8. G. and A. Bullock also
live in the city.

A Disgnstsd nnestinnar.

There was u new arrival at Panline's

enthusiasm as to the advantages Of little

little bundle of walls and inquired, How

OLD TIME TaousseAu GOWNS.

Splendors of silk and Gold, but What mn
Earth Werc CANA and "AtIas?'
Some one who has been delving into
old, musty magazines has brought to
light a description of some trousseau
gowns made for Princess Charlotte when
she married Prince Leopold of Saxe-Co-
burg.
Here is the description of the wedding
gown: THE wedding dress was a slip of
white and silver atlas, worn under a
dress of transparent silk net, elegantly
embroidered in a silver cana with a Dor
der to match, tastefullv worked in floral
designs to form festeons round the bot
tom, the sleeves and neck trimmed with
q most rich suit of brussels point lace"
All very fine, but what, prithee, thou
quaint old fashion writer, are cana
and ''atlas?" ssaIantua" is almost as OBJ
solete 9 part of the vocabulary of fashion,
but we still recognize behind it the i'm
age OF a flowing cape. But 'tatlasT' 1t
is a conundrum. And "camay" An
Egyptian riddle. 1t seems to have been
quite popular, whatever it was, for an
other of the trosseau gowns was Of white

THOSE BONDS.
Col. Murray and Judge Aikens Discuss
the Proposed Madison Water Works
Bonds-The Judge Of the Opin-
ion that All Proceedings Will
Prove Invalid.

Col. Murray returned from Canton
last evening whittier he had gone on
legal business, and in his daily round a
DAILY LEADER reporter had q pleasant
talk with him this morning. Among
other things he mentioned was q portion
of a conversation with Judge Aikens
anent our water works bonding. The
Judge had asked him how the vote went
and the Colonel replied by giving him
as near as he could the figures. Then
the Judge went on Of his OVID account
to state that he was interested in knowing
how the matter came out from the fact
that it was being freely discussed while
he was holding court here, and he had
watched the proceedings closely and was
interested in the subject as a matter OF
curiosity. He then went or to state
that not a legal step had been taken in
the bonding movement from it's ~incipien-
cy to the present time. BY the way Of
specification, be referred to the legal
manner in which the question to bond
should be instituted. The council
should first have employed a competent
engineer to have made an accurate SUR
vey and profile d the whole section to
be covered by the water works, the
amount of excavation and cost OF same
necessary to put in the system, with q
description OF the plant and estimated
cost thereof, and all other information
In regard TO the bonds, sale, interest and
term to run, ETC., connected with the
carrying out OF the project, and these
facts should have been Incorporated in q
resolution and placed before the people
by publication, in order that they might
vote intelligently upon the question.
This is what constitutes the obligation
between the people and their servants,
the council, and the bond purchasers.
The Judge said he had read the notice
OF election and that it complied with
none OF these requirements and was i'm
valid, together with all proceedings
which hinged upon it from the START.
The reporter asked Col. Murray what
he thought about it, but the Colonel re-
piled that he had given the matter very
little thought and was not prepared to
speak upon it, nor was he in a position
to discuss it with Judge Aiken. 81 sup
posed, remarked the Colonel, shat there
would be no particular objection raised
and that the bonding would proceed, but
since my return last evening I learn
that several parties will contest the
legality of the proceedings and are pre-
pairing to get out an injunction restrain
ing the council from issuing the bonds,
providing they could get a purchaser il

New York.

New YORK, May 24.-This was an
other quiet day ut the stock exchange.
The market opened dull and lower In
sympathy with London, but the decline
there was attributed TO manipulation
from this side in bear interest. The
losses ranged from % TO per cent in
the general list and from ~ to 3 in q
few of the active stocks and some of the
spe cialties. American Tobacco fell off
3. to SO; General Electric ~, to 7419;
Lake Shore ~. to 1214; Rock Island
~, to n, and Richmond Terminal Is,
to Az, the lowest price at which the
last-named has ever sold. An advance
of H@1T afterwards took place
under the leadership of Sugar,
Distillers. Tennessee Coal and lion
and Cordage. During the afternoon a
fresh attack was made OH General Elec-
trio, which touched 721l, decline of
3% from last nights close. This move
ment had comparatively little effect
upon the market, outside OF Manhattan,
which dropped "a to 12Ss4. and Dis

the highest. A rally Of 14@l4 per
cent followed the latter in General Elec-
ment of the Chicago, Milwaukee q st.

advance was checked by the announce
ment of other failures in merchantile
