WILLARD EVANS DIES.
Bright Young Life Came to an I'm
timely Close Yesterday Morning.

Willard Emerson Evans. son of Dep
uty Revenue Collector and Mrs. w. ID.
Evans, Of Seventh avenue died Sun
day morning 1T 725 o'clock. The young
man had been ailng for a couple of
years, but ii was not until about six
months ago that the pulmonary trouble
which ended his life was suspected.
His father at once consulted the most
eminent specialists in the land the
patient was sent to a sanitarium and
everything within human power was
done to save the young mans life, but
to no avail.
Deceased was born and brought up
In this city, having entered the world
in the house from which he left it. He
would have been twenty-one years old
in October. Three years ago he passed
the civil service examination at the
head of the class. Later he was ap-
pointed to clerkship in the postofflce,
which he was obliged to relinquish six
months ago owing to ill-health. He
was bright, studious and ambitious
young man and gave up his place after
much persuasion and with deep regret
For months his constant hope was that
he would in few weeks be able to re-
turn.
Deceased had so mastered the details
of his fathers affairs that the absence
of the head of the family caused no in
terruption in business matters. In the
death of this beloved son the family
has certainly sustained irreparable
loss.
The funeral will be held at the resi-
denCe at 2.30 o'clock Wednesday after
noon. Rev. A. f. Chaffee will offici-
ate, assisted by Rev. Charles Lee. A
double quartette selected from the
choirs of the Methodist and First Pres
byterian churches will furnish music

One evening he was busy i'm the FAM

cat to sleep in. Father stood by to
give him all the advice he didn't ask
for. The boy had two nails i'm his
mouth, one in each corner, and the
hammer in his hand. Something was
said that stirred his sensitive risbil-
tiles and he laughed. Then he strangled,
stretched up his neck, and said, with

Then, after an agoni8ed interval the
other corner of his mouth loosened and
he shouted:

hadn't fallen asleep and forgottenit
