WILLARD EVANS DIES.
Bright Young Life Camo to nn Un
timely Close Yesterdny Morning.
Vlllard Emerson KvniiB. son of Dep
uty Kevemio Collector iitnl Mrs. V. I),
Evans, of Seventh avenue, died Hun
day morning ut 7.2!i o'clock. The young
man hud been nlllng for a couple of
years, but It was not until about six
months ago that the pulmonary trouble
which ended his life was suspected.
Ills father nt once consulted the most
eminent specialists In the land; the
patient was sent to a sanitarium and
everything within human power was
done to save the young1 man's life, but
to no avail.
Deceased was born anil brought up
In this city, having entered the world
In the house from which he left It. He
would have been twenty-one years old
In October. Three years ago he passed
the civil service examination at the
head of the class. Later he was ap
pointed to a clerkship in the postolllce.
which he was obliged to relinquish six
months ago owing to lll-health. lie
wns a bright, studious and ambitious
young man and gave up his place after
much persuasion and with deep regret.
For months his constant hope was that
ho would in a few weeks be able to re
turn. Deceased had so mastered the details
of his father's affairs that the absence
of the head of the family caused no In
terruption In business matters. In the
death of this beloved son the family
has certainly sustained Irreparable
loss.
The funeral will be held nt the resi
dence at 2."0 o'clock Wednesday after
noon. Hev. A. F. Chaffee will ofllcl
ate. assisted by Hev. Charles Iee. A
double quartette selected from the
choirs of the Methodist and First Pres
byterian churches will furnish music.

STAR1ED AN AVALANCHE.
Sound of a Mnn's Voice Precipitated
a Catastrophe.
From the Rocky Mountain News.
Is It trm that the sound of the hu
man voice may start n snowsllde?
James Perchard. clerk of the stale
court of appeals. Is inclined to answer
the question in the affirmative. He has
for twenty years past been almost of
the belief that a word of farewell which
lie shouted in one of tho mountain
canyons cost the lives of two persons.
"I never think of the event without
a shudder," said Mr. Perchard yester
duy. "I was mining at the time In the
region above Georgetown. The snow
had fallen to an unusual depth that
winter and miners moving from one
cabin to another were warned to look
out for slides. I stopped In one of my
trips at the cabin of an acquaintance
and took dinner with him nnd his wife
At the close of the meal my host urged
me to stay a while and take a smoke
with him. but I felt nervous and im
patient for some reason which it was
Impossible for me to explain nnl de
clined as politely as possible the kind
Invitation. I arose from the table and
without delay started on my Journey.
Crossing the canyon I turned to wave
a farewell to the friends who had en
tertained me. The man and ills wife
were standing nt the door of the cabin
nnd a third person was in the house.
The air was perfectly still. Not the
slightest Intimation wns given of the
awful disaster which was about to hap
pen. I waved my hand and shouted
"Good-bye.1
"Hardly had the echoes of my voice
died away before a mullled sound
struck tho ear a noise like the Imom
of n cannon nnd the whole side of the
mountnln seemed to be In motion: The
snow. Ice, trees and rocks started to
ward the bottom of the gulch nnd
within five seconds the cabin wns over
whelmed nnd the spot on which I stood
one or two minutes before wns burled
under fifty feet of snow. I summoned
nsflstance as quickly ns It could be
done and wo frantically due out two
dead bodies. The third person after
ward recovered from tho Inlurles In
flicted by the slide, but I have never
entirely forgiven nnyoelf for th woid
wh.:h I sh"'u."l on hit never-to in;.
forgotten dny."

versity and a predisposition to look for
trouble whenever there happened to be
none lying around handy. And he kept
us busy. Probably that was what he
was for, but we had a time.
One day he came homo from kinder
garten In a dreadfully demoralized con
dition. His Tarn o' Shanter had been
trodden under foot, and his once natty
little lunch-box was a battered wreck.
He was muddy. His clothes were mud
dier. His umbrella was covered with
mud. Rut he brought It all Into the
house:
"I met a big boy," he burst out. "He
was a big feller nwfyl big. He grabbed
me and my basket dropped into the
ditch, but I hung to the parasol. Then
when he pulled me 'round I got a big
stone off the street, an' said, 'Lo' go,
you, or I'll give you this!' He said,
'Hit me ith that stone an" I'll cut yer
blame head of.'
"An' then I" with a stagger at a
sneer, that ended In a sort of n sob. "I
hit him with tho stone, an' he didn't
cut mv head off."
Subsequently herccelved strict orders
from his mother to stay oft the street
during the nfternoon. It seems that his
adventure with the big boy had taught
him to discount the declarations of his
elders, for an hour later he was found
playing with a small companion on the
curbstone. He was hustled into the
house.
"Didn't you distinctly understand
that I forbade you to go on the
street?" demanded his mother.
He dug his toes Into the rug and
squirmed: "Y-e-s. but you say so
very much how wns I to know?" he
argued.
Another afternoon he appeared in
tears straight from school, and sat In
n corner and muttered to himself.
When dinner wns called he declined to
have any. His father questioned him.
"Here's how 'twas." said the boy.
"Joe and me played marbles, Joe
said I 'Inched.' I said Joe was n
didn't tell the truth. Then Joe 'Jumped'
me like unythlng an' I came home
an' cried."
His father spoke sternly, but with
withering scorn: "You're a great chap,
you are, to let Joe lick you. You're no
son of mine If you allow an alley gain
In to get away with you, You could
whip hlm If you would. Why don't
you trv?"
Tho boy seemed to see a great light.
He straightened his face and ate, but
sparingly. Ho seemed to be trying to
get used to some grim purpose. Kpeed
lly he slipped away from the table and
left the house. After tho dinner the
family sat on the porch. Suddenly tho
son and heir came around tho corner.
He limped, and his little blouse was a
tattered disgrace. There was blood on
his teur-strcaked face, and ho seemed
worn and weary. His mother sat
