jim sRIDeeR MONUMENT
Marks Grave of tn Did Pioneer, See,
and e Iorer.

Kansas City dispatch of Decemb
11th says: The bones of Jim Bridger,
the noted scout explorer and Indian
fighter, who { covered Great Salt
lake and the South pass, and was the
first to explore Yellowstone park, now
rest in Mount Washington cemetery
under a massive boulderlike monu-
ment, which was unveiled to-day.
The discovery If South pass, which
made IL possible for the first transcon-
tinental railway, the Union Pacific,
won the monument. To Gen. Granville
NJ. Dodge, now of New York, then the
engineer in charge of the Union Pa
cific, Bridger revealed the secret of the
pass, and Dodge did not forget the ser
vice. A year ago at the unveiling OF
the monument of Gen. w. T. Sherman
in Washington, General Dodge CON
veyed to Col. John b. Cotton of Kansas
City his desire to erect monument
to Bridger. To Cotton was left the task
of finding where Bridger was buried
and of designing the monument. The
unveiling to-day was the result. The
bones of the trapper had been removed
a week ago to the cemetery from the
grave on the old Bridger farm near
Dallas, little town south of Kansas
City.

New York by illness. He had prepared
his address, however, and this was

here from New York for that purpose.
The monument is a massive boulder
of gray Vermont granite. 1t weighs 49,
900 pounds, is eight feet high, four feet
wide and two feet thick. One side OF
the boulder has been smoothed away,
and on this has been carved in relief
a picture of the pioneer and the fol

tie raccoons-a female-apparently not
feeling perfectly safe or comfortable
among her own companions. scaled a
wire fence about three weeks ago and
penetrated through the roof of the
new Roberts House to seek refuge
with the lions. She hid herself there
so effectually that in spite of the most
diligent search by the keepers she
could not be discovered. Continuous
search was made and finally the rae.
coon was discovered by the night
wandering about the lion
house. With some difficulty she was
secured. but it was discovered that
during her sojourn in the lion house
she had given birth to a little rae.
coon, and had handed it over for safe
keeping to one Of the lionesses, who,
with the tender feeling peculiar to the
Irish lions. took care of it until the
keepers arrived in the morning, and nj.

and served through the war as MEM
Der of the Seventh North Carolina
Regiment. Mr.. Kelly first enlisted in
Georgia regiment, but was discharged
at the request of his father, who de-
clared that he was entirely too young
to serve. AS soon as he secured his
discharge from the Georgia regiment,
Mr. Kelly ran away from home ana
enlisted in the North Carolina regl-
ment.
Soon after Mr.. Kelly returned from
the war he became interested in the
shipping business on the Savannah rlV-
er, and from that date he became one
of the most active spirits in the river
trade. He was vice president OF
the Smith-Kelly Company, the Savan-
nah Lighterage Company, and the
Southern GROCERY Company. For years
he was connected in business with Mr.
| Elton A. Smith of Philadelphia, under
the firm name of Smith & Kelly. In
| 1890 the business was Incorporated as
the Smith Kelly Company, and Mr..
Smith was elected president, and Mr.
| Kelly vice president. Mr.. Smith was
at his bedside when the end came.
Thirty-three years ago Mr.. Kelly was
married to Miss Sarah Ann Smith, who,
with six children survive him. The
| children are Messrs. Joseph e. and
| Lawrence Kelly Jr., and Masters Will
liam and Herbert Kelly and Mrs. S.
Ford Ledlie and Miss Rosa Kelly. Mr..
Herbert Kelly and Miss Rosa Kelly
were in Pennsylvania attending school,
but were notified of their fathers con-
dition few days ago and reached here
| before he lost consciousness.
| Mr.. Kelly was one of the most popu-
| lar men connected with the shipping
on the Savannah river, and his death
| will be a distinct loss. He took an
active interest in everything that had
| for its object the improvement of the
harbor or the upbuilding of the city.
| The deceased was an active member of
the Irish-American Friendly Society,"
the Hibernfan Society," the Knights of
| Columbus, the Irish Jasper Greens and
| the Confederate Veterans Association.
Mr.. Kelly contributed literally to
charity.
The funeral services will be conducted
from his late residence, No. S26 Ogle-
| thorpe avenue, west, and from st. Pat
rick's Church, of which the deceased
was a communicate, at O'Clock this
