Funeral Notice. *
Special Dispatch to The Omaha lice.
Sioux Falls, S. D., July 11.—Mrs.
Esther Ellen Kinsey of Custer and
Mrs. Mary Ritchie of Kissimmee,
Fla., sisters, met at Custer a few days
ago, after a separation of 40 years.
When the Burlington train pulled
into the Custer depot, a tall, elderly
woman alighted and stood looking
about, as if expecting someone to
meet her. There came slowly from
one end of the platform another elder
ly woman, a short, spare little person.
She, too, was looking for someone.
After a little time the train pulled
out of the depot, the crowd disappear
ed anil the two elderly women found
themselves facing each other. Neither
recognized the other until a few
words were passed between them,
then there was a happy reunion.
Forty cars ago in Ohio they separ
ated and they had not seen each other
since until the arrival of Mrs. Ritchie
in Custer. Mrs. Kinsey had until re
cently beeen believed hy her sister to
i>e dead, as letters sent to her at
Buffalo Gap, S. D., the former home
of the Kinseys, had been returned un
claimed.
They finally gained knowledge of
each other through the publication of
an obituary of a relative, which
chanced to come under the eyes of
Mrs. Kinsey. In this notice the
names and addresses of the surviving
relatives were set forth.
Mrs. Kinsey is past 80. while her
Florida sister is nine years younger.
Mrs. Ritchie will spend the Hummer
visiting her Custer sister. They yet
call themselves girls and expect to
live for many years longer.
According to reports no fewer than
5,000 persons in Germany are taking
their lives every month. These sui

think of him before. He must be the
one. Hello, there he is now!”
Sure enough. there was Old Man
Coyote Just coming down on the
Green Meadows from the Old Pas
ture. Peter was glad that lie was In
the deer Old Briar Path and not on
his way home. He sat up, the better
to watch Old Man Coyote. He won
dered what Old Man Coyote was
coming down on the Green Meadows
for. He didn't have to wait long to
find out.
Old Man Coyote headed straight
for the place where Danny and
Nanny Meadow Mouse had been liv
ing when Peter last saw them. When
he got there he began to hunt. He
ran this way and that way, back and
forth, crossing and recrossing his
own trail, and covering every hit of
that ground. Most of the time his
nose was to the ground. Once in a
while he would stop to prick up his
ears and listen.
Peter watched every- move Old Man
Coyote made. He understood perfect
ly what Old Man Coyote was doing.
He was hunting for Meadow Mice.
He was hunting for Danny and
Nanny Meadow Mouse.
"I’m wrong again.” muttered Peter.
"Yes, sir, I'm wrong again. Old Man
Coyote Is hunting for Danny and
Nanny Meadow Mouse, and of course,
he wouldn't do that If he had already
caught them. I wonder who did catch
thehi. I’m sure that Keddy Fox didn't.
I'm sure that Mrs. Reddy didn't. I’m
sure that Jtmnfy Skunk didn't. And
now I'm sure that Old Man Coyote
didn't. It must have been Redtalt the
Hawk or Hooty the Owl. <)C course, It
doesn't make any difference who
caught them. Knowing who did it
won't bring them back. Just the
same I would like to know. 1 would
so.”
Presently Old Man Coyote gave up
hunting. He trotted over to the dear
Old Briar Patch and peeped in at
Peter. "Have you your friends.
Uanny and Nanny Meadow Mouse,
hidden in there?” asked Old Man
Coyote.
"I wouldn’t tell you if I had," re
plied Peter most impolitely.
£jjd Man Coyote grinned. It was
on the whole a rather good-natured
grin. "That's right, Peter,” said he.
“That’s right. Always stand by your
friends, Peter. I don't think that
Danny or Nanny Meadow Mouse are
In tho Old Briar Patch, hut you are
quite right in not telling. Don't you
want to come out and help me hunt
for them?” Old Man Coyote grinned
slyly. Peter had to grin himself.
"No, thank you,” said he.
