Coffins containing the bodies of E.
George Shirley, 27, and his wife, Mrs.
Edith Shirley, 14, who were suffo
cated while asleep In their home by
fumes of a gas heater, were placed
close together In a single grave at
St. Mary's cemetery Saturday.
The young couple had been mar
ried a few months more than a year.
Relatives expressed the belief that
both would have requested that their
bodies should He side by side in their
last resting place had death not come
in such form that neither knew of Its
approach. Their married life, it was
said, had been uniformly happy.
Services were held at the home of Mr.
Shirley's father, Michael Shirley, S8U
Burt street, and at St. Cecelia's church.
The church wai crowded by friends and
cqatntances of the dead couple. A vast
number of beautiful floral tributes were
sent by friends. Mrs. 8. M. Collins of
eaeramento. Cal.. mother of the dead
woman, was among those who came to
the funeral from out of town.
Telia Value of Lire.
Rev.. Joseph A. Weis preached the fu
neral aermon. He called attention to the
value and beauty of the lives which Mr.
and Mrs. Shirley had lived and compared
their untimely deaths to the destruction
of a flower. A musical and song- program
was a part of the services at the church.
A long procession of vehicles followed
the bodies to their grave. Father Qately
and Father McDermott officiated at the
services at the grave. The pallbearers

Eussia Satisfied
With the Progress
Alone: the Front
PETR"GRAD, Oct. 28. Russia military
authorities regard the situation along the
entire front of approximately 675 miles
as favorable from their point of view.
Three days ago the German efforts be
tween Mltau and the Gulf of Riga pre
sented a serious problem. At the present
timo the status in that sector Is con
sidered by the Russians as satisfactory.
The Germans have been checked and their
sphere of action is being narrowed con
stantly.
Eattward , the Russians are success
fully pressing the Germans, gaining
ground In many places. Their most con
siderable success recently has been at j
Poatavy. This town was taken and the i
Germans were driven westward th ough
Duka, in a-fierce battle.
From that vicinity, south to the
Baranovichi region, there is little ac
tivity at present. In the Immediate vicin
ity of Baranovichi the Russians are still
on the offensive.
In Gallcla, the Russians are following
up their successes at Novo Alexineta. It
Is stated that three German divisions
were cut to pieces' there.
The Russian authorities attributed their
successes to the vigor of the Russian at
tack, the exhaustion of German troops
and the increasing difficulties of trans
portation with which the Austrian and
Germans have to contend. It Is stated,
however, that the Germans have detached
two armies for service in Serbia. These
are the armies of Generals von Gall-
witz and Koevess.
