SUDDENLY PASSES AWAY.

Miss Melissa Green, of Twelfth ave

i'll last Tuesday at two o'clock a. m,
departed this life at 6 p. M, of the
same day. She was a loving and af-
fectionate young woman, and had a
host of friends who will regret very
much to hear of her sad death. She
professed a hope in Christ eleven
years ago and joined Mt. Zion Bap-

member of the choir and a Jealous

rart in everything that was of interest
to her church. The funeral services

made. There may be several men on
the supplementary list who should
change places with those on the first
list, but even if they did it is hardly
probable that it would add much to the
point getting ability of the team as a
whole A careful comparison of the
results of the American and British
try-outs would seem to indicate that
there are few events on the Olympic
program in which our men will not
score.
Our greatest handicap will be the
change in climatic conditions. The
distance runners will suffer most, but
these are the events in which we are
weakest. and consequently the score
will not be greatly affected. Records
show that we have a good chance to
win all the points in the dashes. The
sprinting squad is the strongest this
country or any other has ever mus
tered together. j. B. Taylor and Jack
Atlee should take good care of the

Jockey j. Lee the little black whirl

some of the leading race horse men in
the West as an accident, is proving be-
yOnd doubt this season that the men
who we're knocking him were preju-
diced or are very poor judges At
Concy Island last Saturday he won the
applause of all admirers of real horse
manship who saw his mastery ride on
Sir Martin in the classic Great Trial
Stakes.
Sir Martin, carrying the colors of
John 70. Madden, carried Off first hon
OTIS in the $4,000 Great Trial stakes.
A length and a half away from Sir
Martin was Fayette, his stable mate,
and the Keene star, Helmet, was a
mead behind Fayette.
The race was a humping match from
start to finish. The one most affected
was Fayette, who was almost knocked
to his knees coming around the bend.
Helmet was the offender. AS they
swerved into the stretch, Helmet
swerved towards the outer rail and
carried Fayette, Robin and Sir Mar
tin with him. When they Strengthened
out Helmet still kept bearing against
Fayette and it looked as if the inter
ference would cheat Madden out of the
valuable purse. When Lee, who rode
Sir Martin, saw that the race was il

A. N. JOHNSON, THE CELEBRATED
UNDERTAKES.

The many visitors tot he city dur
ing the past several weeks to the COM
mencements, conventions, associa-
tons and meetings have invariably
visited the Johnson Undertaking Es-
tablishment and their verdict has
been unanimous that it is the most
complete in the United States.
The master mind at the head of the
business looks into every detail and
keeps an eye open to every advance
move in the profession.
The beautiful snowy white Arabian
horses; the small childs funeral car
is a rare innovation which ELECTS praise
at the start There is a large carved
white funeral car with white, purple
and steel grey draping; then the
massive, gOrgeously carved pile of
ebony sculpture forming a funeral
car is dream of artistic skill and
beauty. The carriages are the latest in
the modern style. Large, roomy, COM
Portable. These are all served with
magnificent matched steeds of rare
beauty and form. The harness is
always clean and shining The drivers
are neat tidy and clean. Not the
soied and sloven sort whose clothes
need soap and water; hut men in
clean linen serve people as they
should be.
During all the commencement eXer-
cises Johnson's carriages travelled
above all the rest. At the various bril-
liant weddings it was the same. His
name is not hunted on his hearses or
carriages, but the little children all
on the route know them say so, and
are proud to see a man of the race
leading.
Mr.. Jobnson's embalming has been
the talk of the city. The bodies
are beautiful. The sting and horrors
of death are banished by the beauti-
full and life-like appearance and ele-
giant surroundings in which he places
the remains. Again and again the
people are telling it to tteir families
that in case of death they want Mr..
Johnson. There has not been any
business started among oul people
which has proven such a necessity in
a great while. The people readily
appreciate it and thus we easily see
why the majority of the people are
securing Mr.. Johnson to serve them.
Polite, efficient, careful, painstaking,
artistic, considerate, skiilful and pa
tient, are some of the personal attri-
butes which added to the most ele-
giant equipment, are reasons why peo-
pie who want the best employ Mr..
Johnson.
