Ellen MacKinnon Lansdowne, eld-
est child and daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Falkland MacKinnon was born
in Grand Rapids, Wisconsin, on May
22d, 1888. She was therefore %
years, one month and one day old
hen she died on June 23d. A SUMMER,
happier, sweeter disposition never de-
veloped more rapidly into lovely
young girlhood. The first eleven
years of her life was spent at her
home here in Grand Rapids. In the
fall of 1899 she was enrolled as a
pupil at Grafton Hall, Fond du Lac,
Wisconsin, from which school she was
graduated with honors in the Glass Of
1906, after having finished her en-
tire course. The following year she
attended St. Mary's Finishing School
for Girls in New York City, at the end
of which year she also graduated. For
two years she studied the violin under
the direction of Prof. Mittell of New
York City, after which she spent the
two following years with her mother
in San Antonio, Texas.
She was married at St. Johns
Church, Grand Rapids, on the 9th
of May, 1913, to Mr.. Zachary Lans-
downe, Lieutenant in the U. S. Navy.
Leaving Grand Rapids, Mr.. and Mrs.
Lansdowne made their home the first
year of their married life at Newport,
R. l.; their second year was spent in
Brooklyn, n. Y, and in August, 1915,
hey took up their residence in Cleve-
land, Ohio, where Lieut.. Lansdowne
has been in charge of the recruiting
office in the Cleveland district for
the United States Navy.
A son came to bless their lives on
June 10th, 1915. He bears his moth
er's family name for he was christ
ened Falkland MacKinnon Lans-
downe.
At Cleveland they experienced their
real first housekeeping life and there
they have resided the happiest of hap
Ply sweethearts, until June 23d.
Arrangements for the funeral have
been made in this city and Lieutenant
Lansdowne is expected to arrive in
Grand Rapids tonight with the body

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the Mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can betak-
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

POLICE DESERVE
CREDIT FOR CON-
VENTION WORK

The protection afforded property
and life and limb during the Eagles
convention speaks volumes for the
adequacy and competency of the
Grand Rapids police force.
Not single instance of robbery,
either from the person or of homes
was reported tothe officials. Not a
single accident occurred in the traffic
on the streets. The handling of the
traffic by the police department could
not have been improved upon. With
the large crowds on the streets con-
stantly crossing and recrossing at all
points and the large number of auto
mobiles constantly traversing the
street, the officers had their hands full
and to their credit be it said that they
did their work well. Officers working
double shift, standing for hour upon
hour, directing traffic, preventing ac-
cidents and attending to the thousand
and one duties they were called upon
to perform, Chief Gibson and his men
are to be thanked by the citizens and
by the city's guests for the excellent
manner in which they did their work.
Detectives Here.
Not all the glory for the protection
against crooks must be given to the
local police.
Detectives James Markey and J.
G. Sullivan of the Milwaukee road
were in the city all week working IN
connection with John bennington to
protect the city against crooks did
efficient work.
, Messrs. Markey and Sullivan know
practically all the crooks in the coun-
try by sight and with this knowledge
were able to steer the bad men away
from the city as fast as they were
found here.
The incident Of Tuesday when they
captured three men beating their way
into the city, one of whom was recog-
nized by John Normington as a pick
pocket he had placed under arrest in
ten years ago, showed the
kind of work this trio of skilled de-

Thursday afternoon symptoms of ton
silitis appeared, followed that night
by a severe attack of infamatory rheu-
matjsm, which spread rapidly toward
her heart, and in spite Of every heroic
effort and all medical skill employed
by the physicians in attendance she
passed into the world beyond at two
o'clock Friday morning.
Mrs. Lansdowne's death adds one
more sudden casualty to the series of
heartbreaking bereavements, every
one Of which has plunged this COM
munity into profound abysmal sorrow
at all too frequent intervals during the
past few years. In each and every
instance death has with scant notice
taken the choice and charming daugh-
ter Of a cherished and conspicuous
family and in each and every case the
visitation has come with such terrific
stunning suddenness as to make each
instance appear as the one outstand-
ing grief-producing event of the
series.
The death of Mrs. Lansdowne has
once more thrown this entire COM
munity into deepest mourning. The
sympathy and sorrow is so generally
deep and profound that it is almost
ineXpressible. It seems needless to
say that the immediate family are en-
titled to every possible comfort that
can be rendered.

Many Grand Rapids Readers have
Heard It and Profted Thereby.
Good news travels FAST" and the
many bad back sufferers in Grand
Rapids are glad to learn where re-
lief may be found. Many a lame
weak and aching back is bad no
more, thanks to Doan's Kidney Pills.
Our citizens are telling the good
news Of their experience with this
tested remedy. Here is an example
worth reading.
Mrs. A. Witte, 9th ave-, S. Grand
Rapids, says: ''For over a year, I
suffered from kidney complaint and
inflammation of the bladder. Day
and night my back panied and I was
so bad that [ could hardly straigh-
ten up after STOPPING over. Grad
ually | kept getting worse and al
though I was treated by doctors,
got no relief. Doan's Kidney Pills
helped me right away and after
had taken a couple of boxes, not
a sign of kidney trouble remained" -
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Witte had. Foster-Mil-

This sudden and startling informa-

warning of any serious illness had
reached her family in Grand Rapids.
In fact, a letter written to them just
thirty-eight hours before she died

Immediate long distance telephone

The effectiveness of the work done
by these three detectives, Sullivan.
Marley and Normington, will probab-
ly never be known. The officers are
not given to talking much about what
they do but it is known to the Report
er that their work was effective and
that they were a big item in the keep
ing of the city clear Of crooks.
John bennington was for years d
detective connected with the police de-
partment of Milwaukee, and Grand
Rapids is indeed fortunate in having
man of his skill and ability here,
Rumors of Mr.. Normington's candi-
dacy for sheriff are floating about and
people should bear in mind his record
as an officer in the big city and weigh
well the advantage of having a man
of his skill and experience as sheriff
of Wood County.
