MRS MABEL SANFORD LEWIS
WILL FOR THE NEXT FOUR
YEARS STUDY MUSIC AT THE
CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC.
PARIS, FRANCE.

Mrs. Mabel Sanford Lewis, who is
very smart and quite well known in
musical circles in this city, who taught
piano lessons at the Wendell Phillips
High School for some time and served
as pianist at the Ebenezer Baptist
Church, accompanied by her four-year-
old daughter, Miss Mable, departed
Monday for New York City and from
there she will sail for Paris, France,
where she will attend the Conserya-
tory of Music of that city and strive
for the Masters degree, which will
require four years of hard study.
She will be absent four years and
her many friends wish her the greatest
success.

Thousands and Thousands of His Sor-
rowing Friends Sent Most Beautiful
Floral Offerings, Which Were Sent
After the Funeral to Mercy Hospital and
Other Hospitals Throughout the City.
Three or Four Large Auto Trucks We're
Loaded Down with Them.

Last Friday morning untold thou
sands and thousands of people, the rich
and the poor, the high and the low,
the white and the black, in short, peo-
pie in all walks of life, braved the
snow, the cold, the ice and the sleet,
in order to be present at the funeral
Of the late P. J. Carr, which was with
out any doubt one of the largest fu-
nerals ever held in the history Of Chi
cago. Thousands and thousands Of
autos were in the solemn procession
of mourning humanity.
The funeral services were held first
at the late home of Mr. Carr, 1929 S.
Western Ave-, for the family and close
friends. At the close of the services
at his late home the funeral cortege
wended its way onto St. Agnes Roman
Catholic Church at 39th St. and Wash
tenaw Ave Not one person out of
one hundred were able to enter the
church owing to its smallness.
1t was one of the most impressive
scenes that we have ever witnessed

friends (white), who is connected with
the city hall and friend of his, were
in their auto already to start for the
church and both of them spoke up and
exclaimed, 'Mr. Taylor come and get
in our car, which will be much better
than walking to the church," and we
had gone not more than one block
before two young ladies hailed them
and they wanted to know if they could
ride along with the party and the
young men said sure come and
climb in, as we were occupying the
rear seat they sat right down by our
side and not one word was said about
social equality and so on. The young
ladies were very pleasant to meet and
we gave them our word and honor
that their names would not appear in
these columns in connection with that
incident.
Owing to the length of this arti-
Gle it will be utterly impossible to re-
view the past career of the late P. ].
Carr and his friendship for worthy col
ored people until the next issue Of this
newspaper.
In the meantime may his kindly soul
repose in peace throughout eternity.

aires and the paupers with bowed
heads humbly walked side by side, for
in that great throng were Vice
President Dawes, and Mr.. Samuel In
sull, head Of the Commonwealth Edi-
son Company, and hundreds Of others
almost as prominent, felt highly hon
ored to pay lasting tribute to his
undying memory.
All the most distinguished politicians
and the leading business men in this
city were in evidence everywhere,
which was ample proof that Mr.. Carr
was one of the most popular men in
this great city, for he was a true
friend to everybody and everybody was
his friend including the little children
and the grown ups among them.

But small fraction of those who
would attend could get in. A micro
phone swung over the altar carried
the service and the eulogy through
amplifers to the outside crowd, which
lined the streets and banked the
porches Of surrounding buildings.
The Rt. Rev. Edward F. Hoban,
auxiliary bishop Of Chicago, entered
the sacristy, where FIVE monsignori and
dozen priests sat. He doffed his red
mantilleta and white rochet and was
vested with alb, chasubIe and mitre.
1t was a solemn pontihcial mass
OF requiem, a ceremony given to few.
1t was the first ever sung by Bishop
Hoban for layman. He was assisted
by Msgr. Daniel Byrnes, arch-priest;
the Rev. Edward D. Holloway, dea-
con; the Rev. A. S. Harte, subdeacon;
the Rev. Francis Ryan, assistant chan
cellor, master Of ceremonies, and the

"The tremendous sorrow and gloom

J. Carr to speak more than l can speak

of this city has given unstinted praise
to his conduct in public office; that he
tried to do his duty as a citizen and
an official, to conduct his Office with
integrity and honesty.
All Chicago knows of Carr's char

cially the poor children to whom ''the
feast Of the Child Christ did not come

them happy on the day Of all days for

funeral scenes over the remains Of Mr.
Carr had come to an end the process

to the final resting place of the remains
of Mr.. Carr by the side of his mother
and father in Mt Calvary cemetery.
Slowly it went east to Western Ave,
south to Thirty-6fth ST., and then east,
past the newsstand at Halsted St.
where Carr sold papers, past the Nc
Clelland School, at Wallace ST., where
Mr.. Carr's baby face first appeared

Of the little cottage on Lowe Ave,

The last obsequies were chanted by

action at the Imperial Valley Ath-
lotic club last year, but none of
them were any gamer than Tony
Cruze, who lost the 10-round main
event to Ernie Goozeman last night
before a small crowd that was pres
ent for the reopcning of the club.
During the first three or four
rounds the fans were wondering
just when the k. 0. would be sound
ed over Tony. After that they
began toNpull for him to stick it
out, and Tony stuck. Goozeman hit
him with everything, but could not
knock him out and Just when Cruze
seemed ready to drop he would
bring IA cheer from the crowd by
taking smack at GooZcman that
proved to the latter that Cruze was
far from out.
Goozcman staricd OFF at the
crack of the gong for Cruze s ribs
and before the round was OYER he
had Tony side Il mass Of red

rounds he hammered away on the
ribs until they looked like raw beef
and every time Goozcman closed in
he pcppcrcd Tony. The latter could
not get away from the piston like

then he came in too close every so
often, only to get another tattooing.
From the fifth round on Tony
