DEATH OF CLARENCE GLEASON.

On Monday morning, November %,
about o'clock, Clarence Gleason died
at his home after a weeks illness
with malaria fever. Complications
arose which baffjed medical skill and
death claimed him.
1t is with sadness that we chronicle
the third death in the Gleason family
within the short period OF three years
and our close acquaintance with them
makes it a painful duty for us.
Clarence Gleason WAS IA young man
that possessed many lovable qualities.
He was bright, accommudi ting and a
kind friend, and aS TO honesty and in
tegrity one could scarcely find his
equal.
For many years he held the position
of head clerk in Mrs. Il. Il. Moore's
store, and having been here since
childhood and associated il public
business, his acquaintance spread all
over the county, and / has been re-
marked by many since MS death, that
there was not a young man in Trego
county more JhorOuEhly liked and re-
spected than Clarence. Gleason
He was born ia Colorado, aud was in
his 18th year at the time OF his death.
On Tuesday afternoon at 2:3O the
funeral was held at the house and
conducted by Rev Brown of Hays
Many floral offerings were given as
tokens OF love and sympathy.
He leaves mother aud two brothers
in Wa-keeney to mourn his loss, also
relatives in Colorado and Iowa, sever
al of whom were present at the funeral
We extend with wide circle of
friends the hand of sympathy for we
all feel the loss of our friend and fell
low townsmaD, and our heart turns in
sympathy TO those who are left to
mourn, and we hope that time will
gently close the wound and that the
memory of the loved one will be held
as tie that binds them to d better
world.

RETIRING MAYOR HON0RED
Friends of Mr.. Bell Overwhelm
Him With Surprise.
MADE RECIPIENT OF HANDSOME WATER SET1
Messrs. Morrison and Griffis Com"
mend Official Acts of the Out
going Administration.

Immediately after the city council
had adjourned its regular business SEES
sion Monday night, the retiring may
or, the Hon. A. S. Bell, was happily
surprised by a number Of his friends,
who presented him with a handsome
and costly cut glass water service of
eight pieces as a token of their esteem
and in appreciation of his services in
an official capacity during the six con-
Secutive years he has held the reinS of
municipal government.
City Attorney S. A. Morrison made
the presentation address, and although
brief and informal in its character it
teemed with words of praise and COM
mendation for the retiring chief ex-
ecutive. He spoke of the mayors ju-
dicial and official acts, and Of the i'm
partial manner in which he has con-
trolled the affairs of the city, always
answering in his adherence to duty,
and paying him a high compliment as
a citizen and a friend.
Mr.. J. w. GritfiS, president of the
Grenada bank, also spoke in recogni-
tion of Mr.. Bells ability to judiciouS-
ly administer municipal affairs, and of
his record as mayor. Among other
things Mr.. GrifiS said that, during
his thirty years residence in Grenada
the outgoing mayor had had no super
ior, adding that in vacating the high
est office within the gift of the COM
munity Mr.. Bell carried with him the
best wishes of numerous Staunch
friends who had paid close attention
to his administration.
Although overwhelmed with sur
prise, Mayor Bell found appropriate
words with which to express his graf
itue to those friends who had thus
honOred him by word and deed. In
his response he said that he had faith
fully e~ndeayOred to discharge the sew
eral duties incumbent upon him to
the best of his ability, and he felt that
had mistakes been made they were I'M
intentional, as he had not been drawn
from the path of duty by any undue
influences, always acting in accordance
with the dictates of his conscience.
