HIS REMAINS ARREST
Body of Patrick Bracken Brought
Here.
Buried in Catholic Cemetery Satur-
day-Fr. Zindler Omciated and
Held Mass.

The remains Of the late Patrick Brack
en- who died in the Cook County Hospital
in Chicago, were brought here for inter
ment by Thomas Bracken brother of the
deceased last Saturday.
AS noted last week a telegram an
nouncing his death was received by Mr..
Braoken Thursday morning and he i'm
mediately left for Chicago, in answer to
the telegram On his arrival there at the
hospital he found that his brother had
died on Aug. 25th nearly week before
the sad message came to him. mistake
having been made in registering his
name as Patrick Patton instead of
Bracken when he was taken there
only few days before on account
of sickness. This error was the reason
why he had not been notified at the time
Mr. Bracken had received a letter from
his brother a couple of weeks before,
stating that he was not feeling well and
thought he might 60 to the hospital for
treatment.
The deceased was 45 years old and
was born in County Wicklow, Ireland,
having come to Springfield Mass, about
l9 years ago from his native land, he was
fine landscape gardner and was engag-
ed in that work qnite extensively before
coming to America and also pursued that
business here. When the Spanish Am
erican war broke out he enlisted and
served faithfully until the close, but on
account of hardshps and exposure his
health became impaired and he had not
been in good health since his discharge.
The body was embalmed and on its
arrival here was taken to Thomas Brack-
ems residence and at 3 o'clock p. m. SER
vices were held in the Catholic church,
where Rev. FIR. Zindler officiated and
gave a most excellent sermon. On ac-
count of the non arrival of Michael
Bracken from Springfield. Mass, who
was expected on the ] 80 o'clock train
the burial was deferred until his coming
at $50 o'clock when the interment took
place in the Catholic cemetery.
Rev. Fr. Zindler also held solemn mass
in the church Monday morning.

Boy Died suddenly.

Adam Katz, son Of Mrs. Augusta
Lehman Katz, aged ten years. died
very suddenly last Sunday afternoon, he
went down cellar to get some wood and
was taken with fit of choking, as was
supposed by his mother and neighbors
who were near by when he was taken, he
came up from the cellar and died before
DR.. Stanton who was sent for at once
could get there.
When the doctor arrived he endeavored
to resusctatee him but it was to no pur-
pose, life was already extinct. An ex-
animation showed that the unfortunate
boy was suffering from heart trouble and
did not get ohoked as his mother first
thought Much sympathy is expressed
for the grief stricken mother over his un-
timely death. Rev, j. W. Sheehan Off
ciated at the funeral which was held

The Lad Had Narrow Escape.

Last Friday another accident happened
at the gas plant which came near ending
the life of Orwell Death, young lad who
was engaged at various odd jobs in con-
nection with the iron tank. A large ham
mer weighing about rs pounds with a
handle about five feet in length dropped
from the top Of the tank, striking the bot
tom in such manner as to throw the
handle to one side with a sort Of whip
blow which struck the boy on the head,
cutting a cash which took five stitches to
close. DR.. Little has the case in charge
and is bringing the lad around in fine
style. Young Deaths home is in Cincn-
natl but he has been stopping with his
uncle Brady Martin. since they came to
this city.

THROW UP THE JOB
Gladieux A. Co. Say They Can't Make
Wells In City Park and
Quit Work.


Quit Work.
Gladieux & Co. of Toledo, who were
awarded the contract for putting down
four wells at the Power House in the
Park for the water works system, say
they can't get wells there and have quit
work.
The company have been at work here
six weeks and Mr. Gladieux says this is
the hardest proposition he has ever
struck. For the past three weeks he
says they have been down lis feet and
with constant pounding have not been
able to lower the pipe half inch, quick
sand also runs in constantly and they are
unable to obyiate the difficulty. He says
they had good large flow at depth of
as feet. but lost it on continuing deeper
and rather than take more chances of
greater expense then they have already
incurred, they have decided to abandon
it and surrender the contract.
The city will soon enter into contract
with some other company if one can be
found to undertake the job. A we'll digger
of Saranac stands ready to take the job
and guarantees to drive the wells in that
location and furnish an abundance Of
good water. The city will be badly off
with power house and complete sys-
TEN of water pipes if no water can be
obtained

TRIED TO WORK BANK
with Forged Check But Was Called

Account and skipped out.
Last Friday at about 1880 o'clock a
man entered the Peoples Savings Bank
and presented check for S26.25 to w.
Lee Cusser, assistant cashier.
The check was drawn in favor Of Fred
Wilder and signed Ace" Wood, the fellow
claiming that it was given him by Asa r.
Wood, of Grattan. On first inspection Of
the paper Mr.. Cusser surmsed that it
was a forgery and told him he would
have to wait until MIR Reed came. The
man didn't seem to relish being put off
and asked if Wood didn't have money on
deposit in the bank Mr.. Reed soon came
and questioned him sharply as to whether
Wood signed and gave him the check, he
said he did, but afterward stated that he
thought his daughter signed it.
The confidence man evidently thought
it was getting pretty hot for him about
then and while Mr. Reed was calling up
the Wood residence he made for the door
and took rapid gait around John Dehn's
corner, for the railroad track. Deputy
Sheriff Geo Crawford was notified and
he and Mr.. Cusser went after him but
the fellow had made good his escape.

One Of the most tragic events that has
ever occurred in this city oulmuted at the
close Of the Labor Day festivities Mon
day evening, when V. j. Carr the Aero
naut dropped to his, death in Flat river,
after making fine balloon ascension
from Ellis Park. The terrible accident
which ended the career of a young man
in the prime Of life and yigor Of young
manhood, cast gloom over the entire
city and made a very sad ending to day
of pleasure.
Among the attractions at Ellis Park
was the balloon ascension and parachute
drop, to be given at five o'clock in the
afternoon, but on account of the ball
game which came later than it was
scheduled for, Mr. Carr did not 60 up un-
til nearly six o'clock.
When the balloon was sufficiently in
flated and the parachute properly ad-
justed he mounted the trapeze bar and
gave the word to let her 20, waving his
hand and singing out merry goodbye
to all little thinking of the fate that
awaited him ten minutes later The bal
loon arose and drifted majestically to the
east and while at a hghth Of perhaps a
feet directly over the river near
Bridge street bridge, he cut loose with his
parachute, descending with it into the
river, about four or five rods above the
bridge, people who stood on the bridge
and near the banks heard him call for
