The general custom. almost univer-

meal before water, is not very OBJ

practically. AT this time there is no
depletion of fluid, consequently the
morse is not very thirsty and, does
not drink rapidly or excessively, and
apparently very little evil results from
his method. However, tho writer

IN MEMORIAM.
Captain John Jay Phelps.

Captain John Jay Phelps, one Of
the pioneers of Palisade, died at the
home of his mother in New Haven,
Conn, Wednesday night, October ~.
He had been in poor health for a
number Of years and finally his weak
ness yielded to that dreaded ma1ady,
tuberculosis, and this was the be-
ginning of the end. He went away
to his old home last spring for sew
eral months, then came back to Pail
SADIE, hoping that the fine air here
would do him good. But it was
without avail, and after lingering for
several months at his Anderson ave-
nue. home, he again returned to his
old home in New Haven, where he
succumbed to the Great Reaper.
In New Haven Capt. Phelps had
many friends who ministered unto
his last hours, and large numbers of
then attended the funeral, which took
place Friday, October 20, from I83
Maple street, New Haven. There
were numerous floral offerings and
the Woman's Club of Palisade sent
a beautiful piece of white crysanthe-
NUNS. Captain Phelps was very
popular in New Haven and there was
genuine mourning at his death. Mr.
Bailey Willard and Mrs Willard at
tended the funeral, the former being
one of the honorary pallbearers. The
interment took place at beautiful
Evergreen Cemetery.
Captain Phelps came from the IL
lustrious Phelps family so we'll
known in New Haven and New
York. Mrs. Phelps and her little
daughter have gone to Boston to
spend some time with sister of Cap
tain Phelps. They have the affec-
tionate coincidence of every one in
Palisade. Captain Phelps was the
first owner of record of Palisade
property to die. He was man much
esteemed by his neighbors and
friends, and his kindly face will be
sadly missed.
