BENJAMIN F. Ives Deceased

A Huron dispatch of April 20 says:
Benjamin F. Ives, grand lecturer of
the Masonic grand lodge and chapter,
died this morning Of general senility
at the age of IS. Death was partially
due to the death of his daughter, Mrs
Chrales NJ. Dwyer OF Miller, a week
ago today. The funeral Sunday after
noon will be conducted by the Blue
Lodge, with John Cleaver of Sioux
Falls presiding as worshipful master.
Mr.. Cleaver appointed Colonel Ives
to the post of grand lecturer in 1900.
He is survived by three sisters in
the east, ranging in age from 80 to
81 years, two sons, two grand-daugh-
ters and three great grand-daughtcrs.
He was member and had been thru
the <lAairs of all the Masonic bodies.
Colonel Ives and his son-in-law.
Edward A. Driver, laid out the town
site of st. Lawrence, S. D., in 1888,
the colonel locating there in the grain
ana real estate business two years
later, remaining there until corning to
Huron in 1890, following the death Of
his second wife.
The body will be inferred in the fam
lily lot at Forest Hill cemetery, Chi
cago.
The deceased man was we'll known
to all of the older Masons in Milbank,
where until a couple of years ago he
was wont to make an annual visit to
the lodge and chapter at this place
and his coming was always the occa-
sion of pleasant social enjoyment as
well as Masonic instruction. A par
ticularly well-pcsted Mason, he was a
man of fine character and principles,
and endeared himself to the members
of the craft as we'll by his kindly life
and social qualities as by his intellec-
tual endowments and Masonic attain
ments. His Masonic friends in this
locality will mourn the passing of a
brother full Of years and of well
earned honors.

St. Cloud Pastor Placed n
Charge Of Melrose Church
Rector of Cath dral Succeeds the Lat
Rev. Monsignor B. Richter at
St. BOniface

Rt. Rev. Bishop Busch has an
nounced the appointment of Rev
Joseph Willenbrink of the Cathedra
torthe vacancy created in the parisl
of St. Boniface of Melrose by TIT
death of the late Monsignor B. Rich
ter.
The parish of St. Boniface at Mel
rose is the principal one of the foul
parishes of the diocese of st. Cloue
enjoying the privilege of an irremov,
able pastor, that is, the one appoint
ed pastor by the bishop can be trans
ferred only at his own volition, ex-
cept by the direct intervention of the
authorities at Rome.
- The other irremovable pastorates
are the parishes of Pierz, Sacred
Heart, Little Falls, and st. Paul's
Sank Centre.
s. Father Willenbrink has administer-
ed the affairs of the Cathedral par
ish in St. Cloud for the past year,
during which time he has enjoyed the
confidence and cooperation of its
members to a very marked degree
and his promotion to the important
charge of st. Boniface parish of Mel,
rose will be hailed with pleasure B.
the many friends he has made in St,
Cloud, as we'll as by the host of
friends he counts in his previous
,pastorates at Perham and Princeton
in all of which places his work was
marked by the same characteristics
as his work in st. Cloud
Father Willenbrink is a man of
much optimism and sympathy and at
tracts the good will of ill who come
in contact with him, which is the
secret of the generous corporation
he manages to secure for his under
takings wherever he. goes.
The first Sunday of February has
been fixed as the date upon which
Father Willenbrink will take official
charge of his new parish, by which
time his successor at the Cathedral
will be appointed and be ready to re-
rume charge Of the parish. \

Mr.. Knopp was called; he had seen
the boys at SHIN shanty near the

shortly before dark, but thinking they
were Melrose youngsters or lads from
some of the nearby farmers had not
said anything aout it. With this one

Another started from them cCormick
