 The family of our late honored fel low citizen, Mir. Joseph Emmett Ryus. wish me to officially announce that the funeral services in hIs memory will be held on Sunday next at his late resi- dence, at an hour dependent on the and which will be announced in the Miner tomorrow.
 They greatly regret that they can not accede to the request and hold the services in public place but the  health of both Mrs. Ryus and her daughter, Mrs. Florence Baker, make it imperative that the services be held at the house. Every provision will be IT ade at the home to accommodate te the people of the city and all are in- vited to the services. The services will be brief and will be conducted by his pastor assisted by the Rev. MT. Roe. They will be followed by the impressive rites of the Masonic order. The body will be taken to Washington for burial.
