DIED
Three deaths were reported in the city Tuesday night. Mrs. Steedman, who has been confined to bed for several months with consumption, died at her home on Chandler avenue; Pearl Johnson, 3-year-old daughter of Mr. J.S. Johnson, who resides on Morgan street, died the same night as well as Mr. Brigman [sic] who also lived on Morgan Street. The funerals of Mrs. Steedman and Mr. Brigham took place Wednesday, but that of little Pearl Johnson was deferred until Thursday afternoon, in consequence of the absence in Kansas City of the father, who was telegraphed for, and arrived Wednesday night.
