Jack Eustace's Funeral - The funeral of Jack Eustace, who has been
for a long time bartender at the Merchant's saloon took place yesterday
afternoon. Jack died Saturday of heart failure. A great effort was made to
find his people but nothing could be heard from them. Joe Barer proprietor of
the Merchants sent out 35 or 40 telegrams making enquiries about Eustace's
people but no trace of them could be found. Eustace came here from Kansas
City, where he was well known. His friends there through the mayor and chief
of police sent to Joe Barber and Ralph Cochran here $60 to be used in
defraying his funeral expenses. A fund was also raised here and Mr. Barber
made all arrangements necessary to give the remains a genteel burial. Eustace
was 35 years old and single.
