George Kehoe. district chief of the
Minneapolis fire department. died at
1905 Tuesday at st. Mary's hospital.
The immediate cause of his death was
dropsy.
Mr. Kehoe had been i'll two years,
but his condition was not thought to
be serious until two months ago when
he was taken to the hospital. He had
not been in active duty in the fire de-

was promoted to the position of assist :
