Death of Elmer Williams.

Ruthlessly cut down in the summer
Of a bright career, popular Elmer Will
liams, one of Hyde Parks best known
young men, died yesterday, after
weeks suffering from pneumonia. New
er has the West Side been more cruelty
shocked than by the announcement of
the young mans death. Only 90 years
of age, handsome, highly educated, and
loved by all, Elmer Williams fell, when
the star of well-deserved popularity
was at the zenith of success. Mr.. Will
liams was prominent in West Side cir
cles, member of Robert Morris lodge,
and an active participant in leading So
cial events for number of years past
He was graduate of Bloomsbury State
Normal school, in the class of '92, and
previous to his success at that institu-
ton, graduated from several minor in
stitutions of learning.
one week ago last Saturday he was
attacked by typhoid pneumonia.
which caused death yesterday morning
at shortly after s o'clock. All day yes
terday the family residence on South
Main avenue was the scene of a con-
gregation of fearful friends and rela-
tives.
The young mans father once ably
represented the First legislative dis
trlct In the legislature, and is one of the
most highly respected men in the city.
Ihe funeral service will occur on Fri
day at p. m. Revs. j. T. Morris and
w. ). Jones will officiate

When the lady returned she found the
flames reaching toward the ceiling.
Hurriedly she grasped the pan and at
tempted to quench the fire by placing

Mrs. Myers screamed, the alarm
bringing three men to the rescue. When
the latter arrived the Wallpaper was
burning fiercely, and a disastrous fire
seemed inevitable. George Mcknight

fectual and the blaze soon was extin-
guished. Not much damage was done
to the building.

in the National league race, which she
has held during most all of the season

pass Philadelphia. forcing the latter
from sixth into eighth position. Brook

pany with Washington, as they are on
a tie with percentage Of .3O4 for tenth
