Hundreds were seated in the balcony and viewed the sightseers as they swung around the attractive DoothSif and, received souvenirs from Sioux City merchants. The attendance last night was by far lanrer than the o'clock from the Cathedral of the Epiphany. Rev.

Father Finnegan will celebrate requiem mass. Burial will be in Mt. Calvary cemetery. The pallbearers will be former neighbors. Mrs.

Kingsnorth had been suffering from a nervous attack for eight months. Until a month ago she was able to be up a short whil each day, when she delighted to sit by the window. To her daughter, Mrs. Alice Lawler, she commented frequently on the number of Sioux City's old residents who have died lately. Mrs.

Kingsnorth was- a comraunkant of the Catholic church and for many years took Interest in the work of the Tabernacle society of the Cathedral parish, of which she was a member. She was conscious until the last, and died peacelully, bidding goodby to the members of her family at her bedside. While Mrs. Kingsnorth was devoted to her home and church, she took an es-i-cial interest in children. She was a little woman, with a sweet, cheery smile, and.

boys of two generaUons cherish her memory. In the early days there was an apple orchard on the lawn of her home. It attracted the children from the time it lloomed. in snowy fragrance until the apples became a reality. Boys, now business men, can well remember how the little woman used to sit on her porch while the youngsters of all the neighborhood, 'romped beneath the trees.

It was her delight to please tho children and her spacious yard was akin to a playground. She gave them cake, and many a boy of yesterday remembers its delicate flavoring as well as the sunshine she radiated among the children. Mrs. Kingsnorth was born in Raymonl, N. September 22, 1SU.

She came to Siaux City with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Kelly, in 1859, when she was 15 years old. In November, 1863, she was married to George W. Kingsnorth, who came to Sioux City in 1S5S.

Mr. Kingsnorth was active in public life in the early days of Sioux City, having been sheriff from 1SS7-71, and at one time was mayor. Besides her husband she leaves two daughters, Mrs. C. L.

Weld and Mrs. Alice Lawler; one son, George W. Kingsnorth, one brother, Cornelius Kelly, of Sioux City, and four sisters Mrs. M. Keefe, Miss Kate Kelly and Miss Joe Kelly, of Sioux City, and Mrs.

Mr. Anderson will act as camp commissary. About seventy-five boys representing associations in all parts of the state will attend the encampment. SIOUX RISE EXPECTED. Flood at Riverside Park Is Not Feared.

fThe Big Sioux river, which is at its ighest point at Sioux Falls, S. since 1881, showed no rise at Riverside last night.JlThe high water will not reach the mouth of the river before tonight, it is thought. An overflow is not feared at Riverside as the Missouri river is running at eight feet and the water can easily be carried away. Revetment workmen at the Nebraska shore of the Missouri river are patrolling the banks watching the fascines and willow bundles which have been placed along the shore to prevent cutting. Weak places are being strengthened against any sudden attack.

The revetment crew probably will be kept at the work until the government takes charge. Dr. Harriet Comstock is prepared to meet her friends and patrons at 910 Pierce street. Auto phone 39C7. Members of the Y.

W. C. A. will live out of doors throughout the summer if a campaign that has been started oy the secretaries of the association is successful. Much interest in a project has been created.

It is proposed to rent a summer home, or, if that cannot be done, to establish a canvas city on some lakj or Sioux river within a short distance of the city. The secretaries seek to stimulate interest particularly among working girls. The plan is to establish the camp near the city so that those who live there can get back and forth to business each day. 'The idea we have in mind," said Miss Elizabeth Strehlow. general secretary of the Y.

W. C. "is to establish a quiet camp where the girls that work in the city can make their summer home. "A competent housekeeper would be placed in charge and the girls would pay enough to provide running expenses. Lodging, breakfast and supper would be furnished.

The camp would be under the supervision of the Y. W. C. A. secretaries." Outdoor recreations such as tennis, basketball, boating and swimming are planned as features of the institution.

Scouts Hike Saturday. The boy scouts will take the first hike of the season Saturday under the direction of Scoutmaster Alex. Anderson. About forty boys will make the trip to McCook lake. The squads will leave the Y.

M. C. A. at 11:30 o'clock, carrying provisions for a camp dinner. Instruction will be given in "first aid" and drill.
