LAST RITES
FUNERAL YESTERDAY OF THE
LATE ROYAL LEE.

One of the most largely attended
funerals ever held in Madison was
that yesterday afternoon of Royal
Lee, who died last Wednesday night
of heart failure. Shortly before 2
o'clock a short service was conducted
by the Madison odd Fellows lodge,
at the home of the deceased's broth
err, Irving ID. Lee, 1901 East Fifth
street. The Madison band and a
guard of militia company ID, both of
which organizations Mr.. Lee had
been a member, Is we'll as scores of
his former fellow lodgemen were in
cluded in the cortege of 700 or so
persons who followed the remains
from the residence to the First Pres
byterian church, where services were
conducted by Rev. C. McKibbin, the
pastor. Before the arrival of the
funeral procession, the church was
half filled by friends of the late Mr..
Lee, some having driven from points
outside the county. The rites at the
church occupied about an hour. In
torment was in Graceland cemetery.

ANOTHER INDUSTRY
FARMERS ELEVATOR co. WILL
ESTABLISH LUMBER YARD IN
MADISON THIS SPRING.

Just as soon as the stock can be
assembled, a fourth lumber yard will
be added to Madison's industries.
At a special meeting of the stock
holders of the Madison Farmers Ele-
vator company, held last Saturday
afternoon in the trial room of the
county courthouse, ii was decided by
almost unanimous vote, to establish
a lumber yard in the city. The new
lumber yard will be operated in con
junction with the company's grain
business. About $50 of the COM
pany's 304 shares of stock were voted
at the meeting. While il is probable
that two or three weeks will elapse
before a location for the lumber yard
is decided upon, it is the intention to
have the stock delivered here in time
to compete in the summer building
campaign.
While Saturdays meeting was
called primarily for the purpose of
deciding the lumber yard question,
several changes in bylaws were
made.
A new regulation provides that a

twenty shares of stock, instead of
four shares, which had been the max
imum for one member. Another
change permits of the board of di-
rectors declaring dividends of 10 per
CEN of the net earnings, instead of
a maximum of s per cent as former
ly. Twenty-Five stockholders now
constitute a quorum.

PAVING AT HURON-YANKTON
EIGHT-DEBT LIMIT AT
RAPID CITY.

Huron, March 27.-A meeting of
the property owners affected by the
pavement which will be laid in Huron

Of deciding on the kind of paving.
The meeting appointed a committee
CT three who are to make a thorough
Investigation regarding the merits
and costs of various paving materials
and are to report TO the meeting al
some later period. The meeting was
very much in contrast to the paving
meetings which have been previously
held, in that ii was very harmonious
and everyone seemed well satisfied.
Yankton, March 27.-This city is
now in the midst of a keen municipal
fight, with election day April Is.

reelection. There is also a second

FOR PRELIMINARY
Oklahoma City and Kansas
City Boys Sign Up for
Dewey Show.

Special to The World,
DEWEY. Okla, June 22.-Nate
Jackson of oklahoma City and Mike
Orrison of Kansas City will box a ten
round preliminary to the Dillon
Flynn match at 1890 o'clock on the
morning of July Fourth at the round
up at Dewey. f.'.
These two fighters are in the
bantam class, and both are stars. Nate
Jackson has fought more ring battles
and lost fewer than any man of his
weight and age in the United States.
and he is a great favoritc with the
fans throughout the southwest. Mike
Orrison is great favorite along the
kaw, and these facts assure the crowd
for the roundup on the Fourth of
July not only the best contest that
could be staged between two of the
best heavyweights in the United
States, but in addition the best bout
between the little fellows that could
possibly be arranged.
starts Promptly.
The gong for Jackson and Orrison
will sound at exactly 1870 in the
morning, not minute earlier-not
minute later. The main bout will be
called promptly at 11:15. The ring
will be built on the race track in
front of the four hundred-fo grand
stand at the Dewey fairgrounds. and
fOCr hundred feet of shaded tempo
rary seats will be constructed across
the track from the grandstand. The
reason the bout was scheduled for
the forenoon is on account of the
roping brOncho busting and riding
contests of the roundup in the af,er-
noon, and the temporary seats will
have to be removed after the last
roud Of Dillon Flynn scrap, so as not
to obstruct the view of the spectators
in the grandstand for the afternoon
events. The ring also will be re-
moved to make way for the automo-
bile races, which will be a daily event
all four days Of the roundup, July 8,
4. and 6.
