DeatI, of Thomas Armour.

On Wednesday morning the sad news
of the death OF Thomas Armour was re-
ceived. He died in Providence Hospital
Seattle, as the result of an operation.
He left here just one week before,
and at the time was suffering intense
pain in his right side. The operation
disclosed the fact that he had been
afflicted with cancer of the bowels, and
while the operation may have fastened
it, his death was only a matter of time.
Thomas Armour was thirty-three
years old and leaves wife and five
children. He had resided here for the
past seven months, coming from Doug
lass county last winter, In connection
with j. G. Fritz he conducted the Over
land Hotel.
At the time of his death he was sur
rounded by the members of his family,
his father and one or two brothers.
The remains we're buried in Seattle on
Thursday.
In the short time in which Mr.. Ar
mour had lived here he had made many
friends by his uniformity courteous
manner to everybody. The hotel, to
which he gave his undivided at ,ntion
was doing good business.
He was member of the local lodge
of Eagles, representatives from which
order attended his funeral.
