Again the dark nngel of death has

his eldest son, Frank, 22 years old,
whose funeral took place on Sunday.
At the conclusion of the sad burial
service of his son, he stood beside the
open grave seemingly oblivious to all
around him, and when assisted to the
waiting caniuge seemed about to suc
cumb. The home-coming was sad In the ex
treme, and the loss of his manly son
preyed upon his mind until five hours
after the funeral, at 8 o'clock, when
he quietly breathed his last.
The deceased was 45 years of age,
and leaves a widow and several chil
dren. The funeral will take place
Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock from

NEW MILEAGE BOOK.
Interchangeable One Is to Be Issued
by a Number of lending Eastern
Railroad Companies.
"Although some of thu railroads In
the trunk lines are not In favor of

this chnrnnter," says yesterday's l'hlla
dnlphia Press, ""or several months
the general passenger agents of the
leading railroads In tho East have been
ut work preparing a plan for a new
mileage book. This plan, while being
satisfactory to most roads, does not

that if such u book Is Issued It will bo

"Tho New York Central and tho

companies have an agreement by which

will be, as thero Is no restriction as to
who la to uso them, whllo tho new book
stipulates that It can be used only by

"Notwithstanding this, tho passenger
officials of the other roads believe that

Philadelphia and Reading Railway
companies will be forced to adopt tho

Lackawanna railroad, under the man
