FUNERAL OF JOHN M. INGENTHRoN

Last Sunday was what we may call
an unusual unition or unity of all peo-
pie in our near vicinity to pay the
sas fallen heroe, by name, John NJ
Ingenthron.
The body was conveyed to the court
house after the west bound passenger
arrived Saturday night.
Several of the ladies of our city had
the court room decorated for the &C.
casion.
The Roman Catholic services COM
menced about 1890 a. m. Sunday.
The veterans of the Civil war being
seated at the north side and the Span
ish-American boys on the south side
of the rustrum. After the services
being ended the people retired for
dinner.
At 2:30 D. m vast audience assem-
bled at the court room to hear the
Grafton delivered by Hon. David Rath-
bone of HAYS. The Grafton was alto
gether on the patriotic principles Of
the deceased and his calculation of
the American constitution. After a
beautiful hymn by the male quartet
the funeral started for the cemetery
in the following order:
Hays Drum corps.
Spanish-Amer n boys-@lst Kansas
Veterans of the Civil war
Minister and speakers.
HearSe with pail bearers on each side COM
posed of comrades of the Spanish
American
Relatives of deceased.
City and county officers
School children.
Citizens.
The procession occupied the space
from the court house to the cemetery
the distance being about three-fourths
of a mile.
1t is doubtful if any locality of a
similar population could manifest a
a more noble debt of gratitude to a
deceased hero that did ourselves and
neighbors on said occasion.

Philadelphia. May ia special
meeting of the Atlantic base ball
league was held at the Hotel Hanover
here today to straighten out the trou-
bic in regard to the Paterson club.
Delegates from all the clubs were pres
ent. Mr.. Parsons, of the Paterson
club, said the attendance at the games
of the club at Paterson was 80 small
that he was unable To continue. He
said the players had not yet been paid.
After considerable discussion it was
agreed that the league should control
the Paterson franchise and players
and to keep the team there until Il
better location could be found. Pres
ident Barrow will take personal charge
of the team for the league, 1t is not
unlikely that the club will be located
somewhere near Philadelphia. Harris
burg, Wilmington and Camden are
spoken Of.
The delegates at the meeting said
they looked for a prosperous season,
even better than that of last year.
