Death of Arthur Kearney.

brother, F. H. Kearney, on the evening
of that day, after brief ILLNESS COZ
tracted at Ironwood, where he had been
engaged IN conducting the furniture es.
tabllshment of A. w. Kearney Il Co. He
fell victim to typhoid fever, the disease
that has reaped such harvest at Iron
wood since spring opened, and which
proved fatal in his case, despite all that
medical skill and loving care could do to
save his life. The remains were taken to
Rio, Wis, for interment, the funeral
being held here Wednesday under direc-
ton of the Phoenix fire department, of
which he was one of the oldest mem bers,
at the Methodist chorch, Rev. J. L.
Walker officiating. The attendance of
mourning friends and the beautiful and
appropriate floral tributes, together with
the evidences of general regret for the
deceased, told how much the young man
was esteemed and beloved at Republic,
where be had lived since 1880 up to two
years ago, when he moved to Iron wood
to take charge Of the business there.
Arthur was born at Otsego, Wis, in
April, 1862, and was consequently in his
thirty-6rst year when death claimed him.
He was bright and capable young bust
ness man, amlable in disposition and
frank and engaging in manner, and it is
doubtful if he had an enemy in the world.
He will be greatly missed and deeply re-
gretted in Republic, where he was a gen.
eral favorite.

CONTRACTS KEPT AT HOME.

The Recent Funeral of Arthur
kearney at Ironwood,
Michigan. .,

At the meeting OF the asylum board
Friday, bids we're opened and con-
tracts awarded for the furnishing of
supplies to that institution for the next
fiscal year. No bids were received from
outside the city, but enough were re-
ceived to make the contest lively.
The grocery contract, which involves
some $4,000, went to Churchill & Web
ster. The firm of Strong & Chase was
the only competitor. The contract to
furnish between 81, 500 and $1,000 worth
of dry goods, went 10 Strong & Chase,
with Peace & Orlady second bidder.
The came firm got the contract to fur.
nish about $500 worth of boots and
shoes. Morris Beck will furnish about
$500 worth of clothing. His competitors
were Strong & Chase and We'll Brothers.
The contract to furnish the institution
with butter had large number of bid
ders, and each will furnish a certain
amount under contract. The price
ranged from 2Oc to Csc. As no one could
furnish large amount it was found
necessary to accept all, and the steward
was authorized to take from each a GER
tain amount.
The contracts are not as large this
year as heretofore owing to good stock
on hand and the need OF outstanding
funds on account OF the small appropri-
atoms made by the last legislature. Con-
tracts on certain articles last year were
nearly twice as large.
Last year the clothing contract went
to tho Chas. P. Kellogg Co., OF Chicago;
Kate McCourt of this city furnished all
boots and shoes for S69O.9O.

were held throughout the day, in three
languages, English, German and Scandi-

Amerlcan audience in the afternoon and
Rev. Alice Of Minneapolis, gave the even
ing discourse. The German meeting,
which was largely attended aud seemed
to be most earnest gathering, ended at
7:3O, and was followed at O'Clock by q
meeting of Scsndlnavlans who were ad-
dressed by Rev. Hoffman. Elder Mead
assisted Rev. Alice in the American
tent, in the evening. This is the largest
on the the grounds, but is not filled by
as large audiences as are found in the
tent devoted to worship in foreign
tongues. The grounds looked attrac-
tive at night and were thronged by
many visitors.
At $50 q. N. Monday devotions were

Front st., was robbed Wednesday night.

and breaking the lock of the back door,
and all the razors, clippers, combs and
other BARRIERS tools were taken by the
thieves. The cigar case was also depleted
Of its stock. all the boxes and their con.
tents being removed. Thirteen of the
razors stolen belonged to Chas. McMa-
hon, whose name appears upon them,
and the other tools belonging to him
were also marked. Elmer Marral's razors
q dozen in number, and some of his other
paraphernslia, bore his name, which cir.
cumstance may aid IN the detection of
the guilty persons. At any rate, it will
be moro difficult for the thieves to dis
pose Of their booty, except at distance
from jamestown. The robbery occurred,
it is thought, at an early hour in morn-
ing, the work being accomplished with
out interruption.
The firm say they will not suspend
business" even Temporarily, having sufti
cient "assets" to lay in new supply Of
tools, and having been accommodated
for time by other shops to an extent
that permits them to sing out "next" the
same as before.
