othy E. Crowley, on Sunday, Oct, IA,
occurred the death of their beloved
daughter Sadie, at the age of II years.
Previous to last March Sadie was
strong healthy girl, but of late it became
apparent that she was afflicted with the
dreaded consumption. From the first of
her illness the physicians entertained no
hope for her recovery, but as a good
Christian fears not death, Sadie was per-
fectly resigned to the holy will of God
and bore all her sufferipgs most patient
". She died as she had lived, good,
pious child, child always devoted to
her God and religion. The funeral was
held at Holy Rosary church on Wednes-
day, Got. II, at a. H., attended by the

large number of sorrowing friends.

gram from Secretary Woodruff, Of the
National Municipal League, stating that
be had mailed full particulars of the
coming convention. The Minneapolis
board of trade has not yet invited the
convention to come here, but if it is
found that it is desirable to have it meet
in this city, and it is expected that it
will be SO found, the matter will prob
ably be considered at the next meeting
of the board, Monday. Il is not ali GER

to come here. The National Municipal
League will attract some of the bright
est minds in the country to this city.
Subjects to be considered are particular
ly interesting to Minneapolitans at this
time on account of the possibility Of re-
ceiving new charter at the hands Of the
next legislature. One hundred dele
gates or more will be in attendance from
all parts of the country, and especially
the East, and questions of practical mu
nicipal government embodied in papers
and brought out by discussions will
characterize the meeting. The session,
if it is held in this city, will probably
last three days at the most and possibly
week. 1t will be held in December.
