Here's point for bettors. A very close friend of MT Lilley told a friend to-day that Lilley comedies Waterbury to Robertson by 500, New Haven by 1000, Hartford by 1,500 and Bridgeport by 800. According to the betting Mir Lilley's friend can have another guess.

Black.

Captain James Black died at Gold
field early Wednesday morning, Sept
30. His death was caused from heart
and liver troubles, from which he had
suffered for the last three years. Every
mining man in Salt Lake City, if not
in Utah. knew Captain Black, and all
liked him. He was a man of great
courage and made and lost several
large fortunes.
Captain Black was born at Mt. Car
roll, Ill, in the year 1S45 When the
civil war broke out he enlisted in one
of the Illinois regiments. He served
during the entire time of the war and
rose from private to the rank of cap
tain, which title stayed with him all
his life. In 1866 he was seized with the
desire to go west, and a few months
later found him digging gold in Alder
Gulch, Montana. In 1871 he came to
Utah and mined in Cottonwood canyon.
Later he went to Nevada and Califor-
mia, returning to Wood River, Ida. in
the fall of 1881. He remained in Idaho
until 1898. when he again came to Utah
and has since made his home in Salt
Lake
Captain Black was not satisfied to
rest in his declining years, and ten
months ago he went to Goldfield. New.
with his wife, where he took no
lease. He was still operating this lease
at the time of his death. He was for
hfteen years business partner of
John Condron, now associated with p
B. Haywood of the Cullen hotel.
The funeral services were under the
auspices Of the G. A. r., and Rev. Fa-

Junior Choir of St. Mary's Cathedral

The following circular letter will be
sent to all parents on Sunday. Rev
Father w. K. Ryan, spiritual director
of the Junior choir, intends, with the
cooperation of the parents, to make
the Junior choir credit to the Cath
olics of the city:
For the past fifteen years an effort
has been made to keep a Junior choir
at the cathedral, composed of little
girls and boys and young girls of the
parish. The choir is very dear to Bish-
op Scanlan's heart, and is under his
special patronage. For the past year.
owing to the old cathedral being so
small no special effort was made to in
crease the membership. Now that we
are in the cathedral chapel, and nearly
in the cathedral, we wish to increase
the number to 100 children. especially
for the opening of the cathedral
"Rehearsals are held every Saturday
at the cathedral at for little girls and
boys from to II years. The children
are taught sight reading, church mu-
sic. Latin and English. pretty chill
dren's songs and many simple dances.
The work done is excellent, and the
music on Sunday morning can be made
credltable to the church and all will
tend TO the honor and glory of God
and also the pleasure and happiness of
our right reverend and dear bishop.
Hoping to see your children soon. I
remain, sincerely, w. K. RYAN,

OBITUARY.
F Falcon.


Thomas A. Falcon, civil war vet
eran and an old-time resident of Park
City, died at his home at $50 South
Fourth East street at o'clock Sunday
night The cause of death was miner s
consumption.
Mr. Falcon was born in Ireland and
would have been e. years old had he
lived until Dec. 81. He served as pri-
vate in the First Minnesota heavy ar
tillery (volunteers) during the civil war.
He waa member of Park City post,
O. A. r., and also a member of the A.
| o. U. W. He had long been a resident
kof Park City, but lived in Salt Lake
for the past two months
Funeral services were held Wednes-
day from O'DonnelTs mortuary chapel
under the auspices of the James R. Nc
Kean post, G.. A. r.
The services were conducted by Rev.
Father Curran, and the interment oc-
Cured at Mt. Olivet cemetery. The
Ladies G. A. r. band and the regulars
from Fort Douglas were present at the
burial.
A pathetic incident of the funeral
was when Thomas Smell, a lifelong
friend, grand old soldier and comrade
in arms of the deceased, tried to pay
his last loving tribute to his friend
but was almost overcome with grief.
Miss Harley and Miss Farrell rem
dered the music in the funeral chapel.
The floral offerings were exquisite, and
the affection of the old soldiers for
their comrade most touching. Sincere
sympathy is extended to the bereaved
with and daughter, who sadly mourn
the loss of a devoted husband and low
ing father. He was man of fine, no
BILE character, a loyal soldier to his
country's cause, an earnest, simple, I'M
assuming Christian, who by his good
life left only the tenderest of memo
ries. May his last sleep be sweet and
his soul rest in peace.
