E. S. Reams Passes
Away-Funeral
Sunday Afternoon

Yesterday afternoon shortly after
three O'Clock at his home at 22S
Gunnison avenue, surrounded by rel
atives and few intimate friends,
Fri S. Reams passed from life unto
death.
The end was not unexpected but
still the coming of the Death Angel
was great shock to the family. All
day yesterday Mr.. Reams' life was at
low ebb and several times during
the forenoon it was thought that he
was dying. For more than a year
Mr.. Reams suffered from the ravages
or Bright's disease and a complica-
tion of other ailments. He has been
confined to his bed during this long
period and there have been many
times when his life was dispaired OF,
but owing to his powerful physique
and rugged constitution he held his
own in his fight with death until yes
terday.
The funeral will be conducted from
the Presbyterian church Sunday after
noon at 2:30 O'Clock. The services
at the church will be conducted by
Rev. Weir. The Odd Fellows lodge
will then take charge of the remains
and conduct the services at the grave
Undertaken \. l.. Gourley will direct
the funeral.
E. S. Reams was born in Bellfoun-
tiane, Ohio, April 1854, being a
few months over siXty-one years of
age at the time of his death. In 1861
he enlisted in Co c, Ohio Volunteers,
and served in the union army until
the close of the war in 1865.
He was married to Miss Catherine
Spriggs in1S65. This union was
blessed with five children. three of

ceased. There are one son and two
daughters, Ora e. Reams, an en-
ployee of the Denver and Rio Grande
railroad company; Mrs. NJ. NJ. Morris,
of this city and Mrs. L. c. Burberry.
of Salt Lake City. One son and one
daughter died several years ago.
Shortly after the war Mr.. Reams
moved from Ohio to Illinois and after
a short residence trere he removed
to Chillicothe, Mo, where he was en-
gagged in the butcher business for
period of twelve years, ranking as
a leading citizen of that city.
In 1883 he moved from Missouri
to Silverton. Colorado and again en-
gagged IN the meat business. In the
year 1891 he removed to the Grand
valley and opened meat market in
Grand Junction, and the remaining
years of his life were spent in this
city. During the greater part of his
residence here he was engaged in
business, but a few years ago he
closed out and accepted n position
in the meat market of J. w. Osborn
& Sons
Mr.. Reams had been an active
member of the Presbyterian church
for nearly twenty-five years at the
time of his death. For thirty-three
years he has been a faithful member
of the Independent Order of Odd Eel
lows. He was also a member of the
local G. A. r.
Mr.. Reams was true Christian
gentleman, man perfectly devoted
to his family, an honorable and
worthy citizen. He was wildly known
not only in the city but throughout
the valley, and enjoyed the confidence
of people and was held in the highest
regard by hundreds of warm friends

SEASONS COME AND GO.

Astronomers arrange the seasons
for us with pleasant symetry that
leaves little, or nothing, to be de
sired, except conformity to the sched-
ule they arrange. Once ever so often
the sun crosses the line and stands
still for day or so before starting
onits march to the southwark or to
the north, and then a new season be-
sina-on paper. For example, in
this year of our Lord, autumn be-
gins according to these wiseacres, at
1890 p. m, Saturday, September %.
But as a matter of fact summer runs
on well into October, so far as temp
crate weather is concerned, this
month and the next being counted
the most pleasant OF the year, not
withstanding the cool nights that
have already given a premonitiOn of
the approach of the season called
autumn. AS a matter of fact every
season in this altitude and latitude
has a capricious way OF announcing
itself prematurely and then retir-
ing as il were to take observation and
see If the announcement is receiv-
ed in the proper spirit. In instance
the chill that now falls upon us after
sunset is one of the ways the weather
mas of warning us of what is COM
ing-a sort of a pleasant method
of informing Colorado that her best
and finest weather is at hand. And
so in the early spring we speak Of
the backbone of winter being broken
when there is nothing of a reliable
character to Indicate that lordly sum
mer is about to ascend his fiery
throne, to thaw out the frozen earth,
return to the trees their royal green
10 gaIrstrh 70 nnprnre Cff1l
as a matter of fact, though assured
of some weeks of delightful weather,
the summer is departing whenever
tn evening chill is manifested through
the shortening of the days Already
the careful observer will note here
and there a yellow leaf fluttering
down, occasionally a qualIing aspen
tree whaping itself in an unneeded
mantle of gold. and a whirl of chilly
wind that seems to bear no relation
to the days that are-all little an
nouncement cards that Dame Autumn
is handing out, bidding us to take cog
nizance that she is about to pay us
n long visit. But it is not yet time
TO respond there is plenty of summer
left. Just as spring anticipates her
arrival by day or two of unreason-
able warmth weeks before she has
any serious intentions. so will sum
mer linger along, flirting with de
mure autumn until it verges into
Indian summer, and that delight
full period is unconsciously assimil-
ated with winter. In Colorado, the
climate, seasons and weather are
timely topics upon which to disser-
tate and squelch the printers tnsat-

It's Not the Eleventh, But It's a
Good One.

A professor has discovered among
some ancient ruins what is supposed
to be the eleventh commandment. The
text is as follows: "Emas rof
yltpmorp tseyap uoht sselnu repap-
sven a daer ton tlahs uoht." The
commandment is easily translated by
beginning at the end of the sentence
and reading backward.
