at his home in Den,son on Tuesday,
March Goth, at $3.50 o'clock in the at
ternoon after a severe illness covering
a period of six weeks. For the past
four years Mr.. Collins had been in
failing health and had been confined
to his home more or less during that
time, and his death at this time was
not entirely unexpected. Bright's dis
ease and complications were the cause
of his death.
Mr.. Collins was perhaps the best
known public official In Crawford
county, having for years held the Of

in contact with every taxpayer of the
county, and therefore his personal &C.

to moving to Denison Mr.. Collins re-
sided near Manila and helped to build
the Milwaukee railroad through Craw-
ford county. At this writing we are
unable to get full and complete obit-

his entire married life had been
most happy one. He was the father

we'll attended and furnished fine en-
tertainment for those who were pres

mental solos and addresses. The chill
dren had been we'll trained in the
parts assigned to them and acquitted
themselves most credibly, while a
marked sentiment existed in favor of
greater liberty for the sons OF Ire
land. There was no suggestion that
want of patriotism existed toward
the institutions Of this country. In.
fact from first to last expressions of
devotion to the country and its flag
were in evidence. Father Farrelly
closed the meeting with very appro-.
pirate address in which he pointed out
the feeling of love and devotion felt
by Irish-Americans for their native
land, but fully recognized the obliga-
ton OF Irish-Americans to support this
country and its institutions as against
their other country.
The program was we'll selected and
admirably carried out in all respects.
