Deaths Monday.

J. Ross, an eight-year-old son of J. B. and Mary Bowles, who reside on
Sixth avenue below Lloyd street, died Monday morning at ten minutes
past 9 o'clock from paralysis of the heart, aged eight years, nine
months and twenty-nine days.  He was a very bright and interesting
little child and the pride of his parents' hearts, whose loss is
deeply felt by the bereaved ones.  The little lad had just recovered
from a very severe attack of diphtheria, when he was taken with
paralysis of the heart, and being terribly prostrated during his
convalescence from diphtheria, was not able to battle with the last
complaint, and death finally claimed him as its victim.
