final RESTING PLACE
REMAINS OF GEN. W. IA. IL. BEA-
DIE INFERRED IN RIVERSIDE
CEMETERY, ALBION, MICH.

Mrs. Mae Beadle Frink, of Palo
Alto, Cal, sends The Daily Leader
the following account of the trans
fer of the remains of the late Gen
w. II. II. Beadle from San Francisco.
Cal, and their burial in Riverside
cemetery. Albion. Mich. Mrs. Frink
is a daughter of the deceased:
The remains of Gen. w. II. II.

of South Dakota, during sixteen Of

Master Frederick William Frink.
grandson Of the deceased, accom-
panied the remains and they were
met in Albion by a large delegation
from the Masonic bodies, who had
charge of the burial.
Solemn and impressive, as had
been the Rose Croix service of the
Scottish Rite Masons in San Francis
co on November 16. i'm Albert Pike
Memorial temple, none the less so
was the service conducted al the
grave in Albion. An escort of four
teen Sir Knights from the Marshall,
Mich, commandery was provided,
followed by hurst lodge. A. r. g. A.
NJ, of Albion. The ritual used in
cluded Masonic grand honors and
was followed by prayer by the Rev.
Mr.. Huffer.
Among the floral offerings was a
magnificent emblem for inspector
general honorary of Scottish Rite
Masons. an office formerly held BY
Gen. Beadle. This tribute was from
Oriental consistory, Of Yankton, 5.
D.. whose floral offering in San
Francisco had been very beautiful,
and whose members had assisted in
arranging the details OF both services
through their registrar, Mr.. II. +.
White.
Gen. Beadle held several degrees
from the University OF Michigan, and
as a member of the famous war class
of 1861. marched away 10 four years
of service for his country. much of
the time as lieutenant colonel of the
First Michigan sharpshooters.
1t was in Albion that he was
married in 1868, and he lived for a
short time after the war closed in
Kalamazoo. So, although South Da-
kota was for so many years the scene
of his labors and although the state
and its people were very dear 60 him
it seems most appropriate hal his
mortal remains should rest amid the
scenes of his early manhood"

said 10 have been slightly beneficial,
in that it tempered the otherwise un-
interrupted hot weather. Persons
arriving from Sioux Falls today say
that there have lately been a number
of local showers in hal vicinity. 1t
is reported here that while corn has
not as yet been damaged by dry
weather, it is likely to show bad eff
fects within a few days, if rain does
not come.
Considerable excitement was ere
ated shortly before 4 o'clock this aft
ernoon when an unknown man, who
is thought to be seeking work in the
harvest fields, fell to the sidewalk,
on Egan avenue, directly across the
street from the %postoffiee. The man
was thought to have taken a fit. A
large crowd ~congregated. 1t was
several minutes before the man was
able to sit up.

HUNDREDS VISIT CITY
LARGE CROWDS OF I. W. ". MEM
BEERS AND OTHERS SPEND
SUNDAY IN MADISON.

Roughly estimated. some 700 mi
grants, q large part of whom We're
members Of the Industrial Workers
of the World. spent Sunday in the
city. 1t is not known whether the
men met here by design. Practically
all incoming freight trains Saturday
and Sunday forenoon. brought their
quota of men. who came. ostensibly,
TO work i'm the harvest fields.
There was no disorder. Agents of
the /. w W. during most of yester-
day tried to persuade transients who
were not already members of the or
der TO join the organization. In the
evening. one of the leaders started
TO make a speech at the corner OF
Egan avenue and Fourth street. He
had not gotten very far along with
his discourses. when Chief of Police
Grant Winesburg ordered him to
move along. He complied with the
officers order. The mar explained
to his hearers that the |. W. W.
stands for $4 a day in the harvest
fields, a clean place 10 sleep and ten
hours a day.
In the neighborhood of 200 of the
migrants camped in the "jungles''
near the stockyards. and many of
them cooked breakfast there this
morning. Restaurant proprietors re-
ported that they did one Of the larg-
est business this morning. at the
breakfast hour, that they ever had
done in the morning. So heavy was
the demand for edibles that some
restaurants ran short of victuals.
Two extra policemen We're placed
on duty last night. making four in
all. The special policemen were Ar
Dor Green and James Conley. There
were no arrests. Scores of the har-
y~estcrs left on early freight trains
this morning, most Of them going
north.

GIRL BREAKS Arm
CHILD FALLS FROM HIGH PORCH
AIIGHTING IN A BUCKET
OF WATER.

Frances Cole, the 4-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Ruth Mize, of Min
neapolis, who is here visiting her
grandmother. Mrs. j. +. Glazer. who
is i'll, fell some eighteen feet Satur-
day night from a porch at the ear
Of the Vreyens-Daniels block, break
ing an arm. The little girl was seen
to fall by Herman Vreyens, who was
in the Vreyens store below. Mr..
Vreyens at first thought a pillow
had fallen. He investigated to find
that the little girl had fallen into a
pail of water. She fell head first,
and it is probable that If she had
not fallen in the pail of water she
would have been more seriously in
jured, if not killed. One side of her
face was bruised. Mr.. Vreyens car
ried the girl TO the offices of Drs.
Daniels, Goldman & Kellogg. 1t is
not thought hal she was seriously
injured internally. The child and
her mother had been called here by
Mrs. Glazer's illness.

ELEVATOR BURNS
TOWN OF ELLIS LOSES ELENA-
TOR BY FIRE.

Sioux Falls, July 31.-Fire sup
posed to have been caused by a
spark from the east bound Omaha
passenger train which passed
through Ellis, sever miles west OF
Sioux Falls, Saturday afternoon
destroyed the p. V. grain elevator at
that place with its contents of 1900.
bushels of oats. The capacity of the
elevator was 5000 bushels. 1t was
owned by w. n. Belts, of Mitchell,
managed by O. ~Brandenberg. and
was supposed to be insured although
Manager Brandenberg, the only n
connected with the elevator who was
at Ellis at the time of the fire, did
not know positively about the insur-
ance.
The fire was noticed about five
minutes after the passenger train
had passed, and when first seen was
merely a small blaze running up the
room of the flathouse connected with
and part of the elevator, on the west
side. 1t quickly spread and soon the
whole building was ablaZe with no
means of fighting ii except a bucket
brigade which could do nothing ex-
cept to help protect a small flat ware
house west of the burning building.
Chas. l.. Brown, agent for the
Omaha at Ellis, put in a lively few
minutes making preparations to re-
mov records and other v~aluables
from the depot, which would have
been threatened had the wind which
was blowing from the south changed
to the east, and while the depot es-
capped the visitation by fire it had
the appearance of having been struck
by a tornado.
The bats which were in the eleva-
tor had been brought in during the
last two weeks by farmers clearing
their granaries for this years crop.
There is still one elevator at Ellis,
the Farmers, to receive grain.
