neapolis, Monday, January %,
1906, Erastus G. Farnsworth, IN
the I'D year of his age.
Mr.. Farnswo1th had suffered
with fatal malady for eight or ten
years. In the vain hope of reliev-
ing his trouble, year ago last fall
he submitted to serious operation,
after which he was confined in the
hospital for twelve weeks. Still un-
relieved, early in last September he
submitted to another operation, re-
naming in the hospital twelve
weeks, as before. After returning
to his home he seemed for a time
to improve but the gain was tempo
rary and at about Christmas he was
confined TO the house and for a
week to his bed before death, for
which he had long prayed, relieved
him Of his excruciating suffering,
The deceased was born at Wash
ington, N. H., Jan. 16, 1884. AT
the age Of twenty he came to River

fifteen years ago.
For twenty years Mr.. Farnsworth
served faithfully and efficiently as
janitor of the public school, resign
ing four years ago because of his
failing health. A year later Mr..
and Mrs. Farnsworth moved to Min
neapolis and made their home with
their daughter, Mrs. ]. w. Austin.
Mr.. 'Farnsworth was a member of
the Congregational church, a COM
rade of the Grand Army and was
affiliated with the Order of Odd Eel
lows. In every relationship in life
he performed his duties with con-
scientous fidelity while by his kind
illness, affability and sincere court
esy, he attached to himself many in
lifelong friendships.

yesterday afternoon from the Con-
gregational church, Rev. D. b.

was a stepping-ston TO success.

The mimicry of sounds-those
of nature, the cries of animals,
the shouts of men, the jingling of
military accoutrements-is one of
the important adjuncts of the
Howe Lifeorama at the Capital

emblance to the pictures. Mr..
Lyman II. Howe has four of these
shows on the road, and he says
that one of his greatest difficulties
