Tuesday evening at his home on
Orange street. The funeral will be
held at ST. Georges church tomorrow
morning:
Two "Jackies'' from one Of the gov
eminent vessels were on the streets
this morning still celebrating. They
had what would be commonly called in
the vernacu1ar of the street a ''mag-
nificent shine" and they didn't care
who knew it.
The Northwestern Railway company
deserves considerable credit for the
way in which the local officials han
died the large crowd yesterday. The
company had expected to handle only
about three thousand people, and when
they found 10000 their work became
much greater than they had antici
pated. However, the crowd came and
went without accident.
One of the jolly tars from the gun
boat Michigan wandered away from
the ship last night and failed to return.
A reward of $40 was offered this

several months 20 come. Of course
the boy had no intention of deserving
but the flowing bowl had too much of
an attraction for him.

Gardiner P. Stickney, who came to
ito get some suggestions for the man

no1ds, of Randall, met with them and
while all claimed that they were not
talking politics, it did look suspicious.

the E. B. Wo1cott Post G.. A. R., of
Milwaukee, headed by their famous
drum corps, marched to the home of

mons and Bishop Fa11ows stood in

of the comrades by the hand. The in
formal reception was one Of the great
features of the day, and a warm feel
ing will always exist between Mr..
Simmons and the members of the Mil
waukee Post.
