PASSED TO HER REST.

On Saturday evening last the
wires brought to Virginia friends
the sad news of the death of
Mrs. Gust johnson, which oc.
Cured at st. Luke's Hospital in
that city at 4:30 p. m. on that
Jay.
1t is not our intention or de-
sire to indlte a panegyric on the
life of the deceased, for her
kindly ways, womanly graces,
charitable and neighborly acts
have written upon the hearts of
friends a eulogy as imperishable
as time or memory.
The grim Angel Of Death took
her pure soul from it's earthly
casket, which had been racked
by pain and suffering, and waft-
ed the spirit through the veil in.
tervening between the Affections
of earth and the fullness of joy,
into the everlasting peace of the
! home beyond, where it has en-.
tered upon it's glorious and un>
ending life upon the beautiful
shores of the bright forever.
Mrs. Anna Sophia Nelson was
born at Ostergotland, Sweden,
on March 9th, 1868, being nearly
81 years of age at the time of
deoth. On November 18th, 1891,
she was united in marriage to
MIR. Gust Johnson, at Rhine.
lander. Wis. From this union
of hearts four children were
born, two little daughters and
the grief stricken father sur
viving her untimely demise.
AS devoted wife and loving
mother Mrs. Johnson was noble
example; faithful tender. loving
and appreciative of the bound,
less love and undylng affection
of her devoted husband and
children.
Deceased was taken to St.
Luke.s the first of the year for
treatment, undergoing an opera
ton with apparent strength and
| fortitude, but later operations
sapped away the life, it being
apparent for some hours before
death that she could not long
survive. The remains were
brought here Monday and IN
tered in the Virginia cemetery
Tuesday afternoon, the funeral
services being conduc ted from

church, the beautiful floral of

all attesting the place in the
hearts of the community held by
the deceased, whose body is dead
but whose spirit liveth forever.

To shine on fairer shore;
And bright in Heavens jeweled crown

THIRD AURNrE MEN Puzzled.
Don't Know What tn DO Now With Their
Mutual benefit Fund.

Since the Metropolitan Street Railway Com
pany acquired the control ofthe Third Avenue Com
pany. the members Of the Third Avenue Rail
road Employees Mutual Benefit Association
have been greatly exercised as Ia what should
b. done with the organizations funds The
association is not A trade union, but purely a ben
eft association and like the association Of the
same name If tho Metropolitan Street Railway
employees, it was started with the consent and
co operation of the officers Of the company, mos,
Of whom are members Of II. Some Of them say
that they should turn the fund, which amounts
10 something over 50, 400, into the fund of the
Netrnpolilan Street Railway Company aSSo
citation and amalgaInate with the latter assoCia
lion Others say that the Metropolitan Asso
citation has only 81, 800 in It's treasury, and these
are in favor of keeping their own association in
tact. The greater rImber wish 10 di,band the
assutialion aud divide up the fund which would
give the members So or 50 each.
The board Of trustees Of the Third Avenue
Railroad Employees Association held a secret
meeting last evening to consider what was 10
b. done and q general open meeting was called
afterwards, but the only business done at il was
the reading IT reports After the meeting one
OF the trustees said that it had been decided to
disbsnd il many discharges followed the reor-
gani,ation Of the road. The association would
not combine with the other association.
