With the death OF Mr.. Moore the
younger social set of the capital city
has lost one Of it's most popular MEM
bers. Mr.. Moore during his stay in

confidence of all with whom he came
in contact. OF a quiet and unassum-
ing nature he made friends rapidly, es-
pecially among the young men Of the
city, and has passing away has cast
a gloom upon the entire community.
He was a good boy, and the sad fact
of his being moved down in his youth
by the Grim Reaper, with a life so
full Of promise of noble deeds before
him, has filled many a heart with
grief, and dimmed many an eye with
sympathetic tears.

of the grand lodge, A. o. u. w. His
father was at the sons bedside at the

services. The deep seated sympathy
of the entire city is extended to the
