many wild dogs which will be a menace TO
life and limb before the middle Of the win

food and II molested snap and snarl like
rabid beasts. Nearly every family which
spends the winter here is also plagued by
half starved and homeless eats
These vagrant cats and dogs have been
abandoned by departing cottagers after
having been petted and fed all through the
summer months.
Sunday two well dressed young women

81 Did My Duty"-He Had scheme For
EIevating the Street Cars and Wanted
TO BE Comptroller.
CHICAGO, Oct. SO.-Seldom has anything
awakened such deep sorrow among the
residents of Chicago as the death of Mr..
Harrison. His political enemies-and he
had many of them-all had a warm spot
for the genial personality Of the man, and
his friends, whom he numbered by the
thousands fairly worshiped him. The
manner of his death silenced all things
that could be said against him, and the
grief over his awful death is almost uni
versal in Chicago. The most signal evil
dence of sorrow was the absence of all fes-
tivities at the fair today. There will be a
great crowd of course, for it is the last
ilay of a wonderful six months, but of any
thing like joyousness or the observance Of
a fete there will be none.
Director General Davis has issued orders
that the ceremonies which were announced
TO take place today in connection with the
closing of the Worlds Columbian exposi-
ton should be wholly dispensed with, ex-
cept that all invited guests and the public
generally were requested to assemble in

Funeral Wnl he "Wednesday.
The arrangements for the funeral Of the
murdered mayor will not be made until
after the special meeting of the city coun-
ril, which will be held today. 1t has, how
rver been decided that the obsequies will
take place Wednesday. The body will be
placed in a vault at Graceland cemetery,
and the funeral, which will be private, will
occur later. Mayor Harrison's body will
lie in state for at least day in the city
hall. The council will probably ask that
the body be taken 20 the city hall this
afternoon, where It will remain until the
funeral which will probably take place
from there. It has been decided that the
active pallbearers will be eight police cap
tains, who will be selected by Chief of PO-
lice Brennan. The honorary pallbearers
have been chosen by the mayors family.
