Chicago Record: 1t is not probable
that the senate will confirm many OF the
o24 brevets that have been conferred
upon officers of the army who took part
in the Santiago campaign, because the
members of the military committee
think they have been too freely dis
tributed, and in the list are many men
who were never under fire. In some

army that went to Puerto Rico no one
was recommended for brevet rank ex-
cept Col. CastIemAn of Kentucky. In
some OF the regiments that did the hot
test work at Santiago no officers are
nominated, simply because the regi-
mental commanders were not up to the
game and did not send in their names.

DR.. j. R. JONES.
A Well Known Citizen, Died at His Rooms
in the Madison House this
Morning.

Our community was startled this
morning to learn Of the death OF Dr.
r. Jones at $50 q. NJ, to-day, at his
rooms in the Madison house, few being
aware that the doctor was over sick.
About Wednesday moo be complained
of not feeling we'll and that night spent
a very hard night Of pain, making it
necessary to call a physician before
morning. The latter gave him relief
and he slept we'll until 10 a. a., yester-
day. He got along easier during the
day, yesterday, but late in the evening
the pneumonia with which he had been
suffering developed into pleurisy from
which he suffered very accutely until
within a few hours OF his death
when the pain relaxed and he passed
away resting easily, feeling hopeful and
conscious to within Is minutes of his
death.
Deceased was about 6 years of age, a
native OF New England, snd4 came to
Lake county II years. He lived in the
city, retired from the practice of his pro
f~ession, and besides his residence in the
city he owned a valuable farm of half a
section of improved land in Pennington
township. His wife died here two years
ago and since that time he has been
somewhat unsettled in his mode of life.
Last year he visited a neice at Lansing,
Mich, wife Of Rev. Mr.. Osborne, an
Episcopal clergyman, who has visited
Madison a number Of times, and a cousin
at Des Moinee, Iowa, aud these are the
only known relatives, having no family
Of his own. These have been telegraphed
to by the Masonic fraternity OF this city
who have taken charge of the funeral
arrangements, and the time OF the fun
eral will depend upon the answer re-
ceived from them. DR.. Jones was a
quiet, compsnlonable gentleman, much
esteemed by friends and neighbors. and
WAS a very devoted adherent Of the
Episcopal church. At the time of his
death he was city justice, a position
which he has held for several Years.
Announcements Of the funeral vii! be
made later.
