TRIBUTE OF ESTEEM
To the Late George w. Ellis b!
Belding Bros. & Co.

Thirty-seven years ago, on the TIRES
hold of his young manhood, George
w. Ellis associated himself in business
with Bedding Bros. & Co. From that
time until he was removed by Di-
vine Providence, he served the COM
pany without interruption, and de-
voted unsparingly his best abilities
to its interests. He advanced steadily
from the humblest position until he
became one of the most trusted MEM
bers of the board of directors. Each
position of responsibility was filled
with such fidelity that il became the
stepping stone TO more important
one.
His life, though far too short in
years, was rich in usefulness. Kind
and helpful, considerate and tactful,
diligent and faithful, he endeared him.
self to all, and won the love, respect
and confidence of his associates.
We feel that we have met with an
irreparable loss. We shall miss his
presence and his wise counsel with
profound sorrow, but with the COM
forting thought that his beautiful life
and character will be to us an abiding
source of inspiration, and that the
SDlenulu luedlS WHICH, Ills lie 81 ut-
tingly expressed, will remain with us
always. We mourn his loss not only
as business associates, but as devoted
friends.
In honor of him we direct that these
expressions of our esteem be spread
upon the records of the Board, and
that they be conveyed to his beloved
wife with our sincere sympathy for
her sad bereavement, assuring her OF
that comfort which comes from mu-
tual devotion To his memory.

of Directors of Belding Bros. d Co.

AS the result Of a conference by the
Board OF Commissioners yesterday morn.
ing. It is believed the District ice con-
tract will be awarded 10 one of the bid
ders. whose price is 40 cents a hundred
pounds.
This Is the recommendation Of the
board OF awards. which considers all the
bids made for general supplies for the
District. II is announced the Commis-
sioners would approve this recommenda-
ton.
Commissioner West believes a separate
ice plant for the District supply. includ-
ing the delivery 10 many widely separated
points. would be more expensive than the
40-cent contract.
He bases his belief on the rough cal
culations made by D. J. Donovan. who
was acting auditor until the return OF
Auditor Tweedale yesterday. While the
1908 ice bill Of the District was s460O. the
cost Of delivery alone, should the District
