The committee has ecided to use this for this vear anyway, and will proceed to have the room fitted up with desks so that it can probably be used by the school next week. Secre- tary F. M. Lerou, Judge T. J. Kelly and B, P. Bishop were the sub-com- mittee on this matter. FUNERAL. George W. Kammerer. At 2.30 o'clock Thursday afternoon the funeral of George W.
