DEATH OF MRS. c. BROWNE.

| Died in the Sind year of her age, at
the residence Of her daughter, Mrs.
A. w. Maine, 6823 Yale avenue, Chi
csgo, Ill, Alicia Adelaide, widow of
the late Christopher Browne, resi-
dent for many years of Salem, Keno
sha county, Wisconsin.
Alicia Adelaide Mcdonnell was born
at "The Leinster Arms, Mayworth,
County Kildare, Ireland, August Is,
1928. She was the third daughter of
William Mcdonnell, Esq, Of May
worth, and passed the early part of
her life at that place. Later she
lived in Liverpool, England, study
ing and travelling extensively through
England andthe continent.
On January 31st, 1857, she was
united in marriage to. Christopher
Browne, of Barrogs County Kill
dare, Ireland. Mr.. and Mrs. Browne
Immediately sailed for Australia,
where Mr.. Browne had previously set
tied, and lived there until 1865, when
they returned to Ireland. Two daugh-
tiers and three sons were born in Aus
tra1ia.
locating in Salem, Kenosha County.
Wisconsin, where they lived for
twenty-one years. While living at
the latter place, Mrs. Browne became
widely known as teacher of music,
having pupils in every township in
the county. She was universally re-
spected and beloved. Besides being
a woman Of superior mental attain
ments and brilliant accomplishments
which culture and wide travel had
augmented, she was of peculiarly
sweet and 1ovab1e disposition, and an
exalted christian character. Old res
idents of Salem will remember her as
sn earnest church and Sunday school
worker, her every act being for the
uplifting and lettering of the COM
munity in which she lived.
Her influence lives today, as many
who knew her will testify. The pas
sionate devotion Of her children and
grandchildren, who were all with her
her at the last, was indeed but
slight tribute to the beauty and I'M
se1fishness of her character.
Five children survive her: Alicia
Marion, Christopher Barker, Sara
Burke, William Henry and John
Payne. Eight grandchildren also
survive her, and there never has been
death in the family of child or
grandchi1d.
The funeral services were held at
6823 Yale avenue, Chicago, September
23rd, Rev. Henry Knott, of ST. Bar
tho1omew's Episcopal Church, Engle-
wood, officiating, assisted by the I'm
peria1 Male Quartette, of Chicago.
Interment in the family lot at Oak
wood Cemetery, Waukegan, where
her husband was buried in 1895. May
the sod of the valley rest lightly
above her.

DECLINES THE TRUST.

Harry Sumner Williams of Chicago,
who was named as executor of the
will of the late Henry Williams, has
declined to accept the trust, and for
this reason the probate of the will
has been deferred until some time
when the heirs of the late Mayor of
Kenosha can determine on an execu-
tor. It is probable that the North
western Loan and Trust company
will be named as executor of the will.

SAN JOSE, Feb. 2.-The wild and
woolly custom of riding into a saloon
and drinking in the saddle was at
tempted at the liquor house Of Graves
& Co., on Santa Clara street, near Mar
ket, at noon to-day by George F. Ew-
ing. Before those present knew what
was going on Ewing had his horse up
to the bar and demanded a drink. There
was a scattering of the patrons. Ew-
ing was elected by the proprietor and
bartender and the police summoned.
Ewing was arrested for being drunk
and riding upon the sidewalk.
Ewing claims to be an ex-cavalry-
man from the Presidio and says that
he was only giving an exhibition Of
fancy riding. The display was not ap-
preciated, however. Ewing is not
known here
