residence here was respected by all
who knew him. In the practice Of
medicine his Judgment was sound and
his application of remedial agencies
were effective as was shown by the
excellent results which have attended
his efforts. Up until the time of his
death he was the oldest practicing
physician in the county and had been
identified with the medical fraternity
for more than forty years. He kept
in close touch with the onward march
of the profession. continually broad
ening his proficiency by reading and
investigation. During his residence at
Vail he held number of official po-
sitiOns. He was appointed pOstmast
err in 1889 and later served as justice
of the peace six years and for several
terms was a member of the city coun.
Gil. He was gentleman of IRE
proachabe character and Crawford
county had no citizen held in more
universal respect than was this man.
lie was member of the G. A. X. and
also the Masonic order. scarcely ever
missing a meeting of either of these
orders when his health would permit.
The funeral services were held on
Sunday afternoon at o'clock at the
Presbyterian church in Vail. Rev.

TO MARK NEW ROUTE.
Sioux City Commercial Club to Mark
Route From Dcnison to That
Place in Near Future

The Sioux City Commercial club is
making plans to mark the route from
Denison to Sioux City, and some day
next week they will drive overland
in machines over the best route and
mark it as they go along.
w. u. IIolmer, secretary OF the Sioux
City Commercial club, has written to
Mr.. Welsh in regard to the matter and
has asked that some one meet the
party and pilot them over the best
road to Denison. They are anxious to
advertise the Denison- Sioux City cut
off and it is their intention to erect a
large sign board west of Denison, call
ing attention to the route and the
thorough manner in which it is mark
ed. He has asked Mr.. Welsh to take
the matter up with the Commercial
club, inasmuch as it will work for the
mutual benefit of both places.
A large number of people drive from
Dcnison to Sioux City and it would be
a fine thing to have the road marked
so that it could be easily followed.
Denison business men should cooper
ate with the Sioux City officials In
establishing this route.

Dan Voss. treasurer of the Athletic

paid and the carpenter bill for the
erection of the fence and grand stand
was $4GO.i5. There are unpaid bills

it was decided to sell the use of the
outside of the fences for advertising
purposes and in this manner it is
hoped to raise 500 at least Local
business men who have stock in the
association will be allowed the privi-
lege of using the inside of the fence
for advertising purposes and the
spaces will be divided off and each
stockholder will draw for ii space. In
