Benefit Concert and Opening at the
Big Store.

The Christmas sale opens at the Big
Store OF S. E. Olson Company, Min
neapolis, on Dec. II, 1899. General o.
son has formulated plan and arranged
an attractive concert program, includ-
ing the best known singers and must
clans, to which concert a nominal ad-
mission will be charged and the entire
receipts will go to the widows and or
phans whose husbands and fathers were
lost in the storm of Oct. IS off the
coast OF Norway. There are three hun
dred unfortunate families and every ten
cent piece added to the fund will aid
toward making Christmas brighter for
some poor woman or child. The Big
Store will be in holiday attire for the
occasion, dressed for the Christmas dis
play, but no goods will be sold during
the concert.
The details OF the program will be an
nounced later, but General Olson's as
surance that the talent secured is the
best obtainable for money is guarantee
that it will be all that is claimed for it.
The admission OF 10 cents is so small
there will be no excuse for anyone stay
ing away.

Deaths Summons Was Sudden.

Mrs. Bridget Ryan, wife Of T. J. Ryan,
the well-known East Side grocer, died
suddenly Wednesday morning at the
family residence, 7o1 Washington street
NE. Until few days before her death
Mrs. Ryan was apparently in excellent
health: she had complained of slight
indisposition, but Tuesday evening she
seemed to have recovered her health,
and was in her usual bright spirits
Wednesday morning she was cold in
death. Mrs. Ryan was woman of low
able disposition, a whole-souled, kindly
Christian, who faithfully but modestly
performed the duties of her station; her
charity was as broad as it was unobtru-
sive; her good deeds will not soon be
forgotten. She was a devoted Catholic,
and St. Anthony's church had few more
Jealous members or more generous sup
porters. In the Rosary society she was
an active and valued member.
From Wheeling, w. Va, Mrs. Ryan
came to Minneapolis, with her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Fox, in 1864, and
since that time has made her home here.
Her father is still living, and four broth
ers-Charles and Peter of this city;
Hugh, of Grand Forks, N. D.; and
John, OF Sane Jose, CAL; sister, Mrs.
Mary Shea, lives at Philbrook, Mont.
Mrs. Ryan leaves bereaved husband,
five children, Mary, Willie, Julia, Lizzie
and Marguerite. The funeral will be
held at 9 o'clock Monday morning from
St. Anthony of Padua's church, the in
terment to be at St. Anthony's cemetery.

that he died shortly after his removal

which had arrived but short time be-
fore. Leaving the caboosc he walked

not hear the switch engine backing be-
hind him, and he was not seen by
either the engineer or fireman. The cor
ncr OF the tender struck him, hurting
him some distance from the track.
Though escaping the wheels, it was seen
when he was picked up by several train
men witnessing the accident that he was
dangerously hurt. There were no out
ward signs of injury, save a few slight
scratches about the face. DR.. Binder
was called, and the physician found the
injured man unconscious and apparent
ly fatally hurt internally. He was re.
moved to St. Joseph's hospital. lust as
he was being placed on the operating
table he breathed his last

used as the basis OF scene OF strong
dramatic interest in "The Great North
west" which will be presented at the
Bijou next week. The hero is falsely
accused of horse stealing. A mob pur-
sues and ovcrtakes him. The heroine
holds at bay the would-be lynchcrs for
time but is finally compelled to adj
NIT them to the postoflice, where the
hero has taken refuge. The scene is
laid in latter days in the Red River
Valley OF the North. An old frontiers
man proposes the arbitramcn, OF cards
for the lie of the hero. The proposition
is adopted and on the spot the game is
played between the villain and heroine.
The latter wins, thus saving the lie OF
the man she loves. The play is one OF
thrilling situations throughout and the
various pictures are presented with the
aid OF fine scenic equipment. In one
scene the heroine swings from the arm
OF rapidly revolving Dutch windmill,
to signal the approaching tram and thus
save the life OF her sweetheart, whom the
villain has left wounded and apparently
dying in the snow. This scene shows a
bowling western blizzard, which is rep
resented with remarkably realistic effect.
In the midst OF the storm, with snow
whirling all around her, the girl climbs
to the top of the windmill arm She has
barely reached it when the villain draws
back lever and the giant wheel begins
to revolve at terrific speed. Clinging to
the fan with one hand and clasping a
lantern with the other the heroine is
whirled around and around until the
hero, struggling to his feet, staggcrs to
the lever and stops the mill, Just as the
train arrives.

Mrs. .Anne Treacy,s Demise.

The untimely and lamented death of
Mrs. Anne Treacy, wife of William M.
Treacy, of Grand Forks, N. D., oc-
CURED at that place on Monday, Nov.
81. The deceased was born in Totem
ham, Ontario, in 1862, and was visiting
with her sister, Mrs. Louis Kenney, at
Grand Forks, while being treated for
muscular rheumatism. No apprehen-
sion was felt until Sunday, Nov. 26,
when sudden change occurred, and on
Monday death ensued. On Tuesday the
body was brought to Ardoch and con-
veyed to the home so lately left with
hope for better health. On Wednesday
the remains were buried from the Catho-
lie church at Ardoch. Solemn requiem
mass was celebrated by her pastor, Rev.
J. w. Considine, who paid high tribute
to the practical Catholicity of this model
wife and mother. Notwithstanding the
inclcmency OF the weather the remains
were followed to their last resting place
by large concourse OF friends. On the
coffin was laid a wreath of roses by the
Catholic Order Of Foresters, and harp
by the Instantaneous. The deceased
leaves behind husband and six chill
dren, three sisters and three brothers.
The sorrow felt by all at the untime1y
demise OF this truly noble woman indi-
Gates the high esteem in which she was
held. Her conduct throughout her suf-
fering was marked by Christian forth
tude. To her children she has left the
legacy OF true faith through precept and
example. Sorrow not, husband and
children, she is safe in her Immortality.
