BATCHELLER, EZRA - The funeral of Ezra Batcheller, who died at Grand Haven, Mich., Monday, occurs at that city this forenoon at 10 o'clock and remains will be taken to Lyons, Iowa, for interment. Mr. Batcheller came to Chicago in 1837 from Paxton, Mass. where he was born Nov. 10, 1820. Arriving in Chicago he entered the employ of Philo Carpenter, who at that primative day was doing business where the lumber market now stands. Mr. Batcheller saw in young Chicago's rapid growth financial gain, and investedin real estate, entering the firm of Holden & Batcheller. In 1865 he removed to Lyons, Iowa, where he entered the real estate business and found a wife. Mr. Batcheller was until ten years ago a prominent and respected citizen of Lyons, being major of the city at one time. In 1880 he returned to Chicago and again entered the real estate business in this city. By dint of hard work he accumulated a large estate. Two years ago his health began to fail him, and last November he went to Grand Haven, Michigan, tovisit a sister and try and regain his wanted health. Relief did not come, however, and during the last nine months he failed rapidly, a combination of diseases hastening his end. One of the old settlers, his death will cause many reminiscences of the past among many of those who ar left and whom in his delightful social way Mr. Batcheller was accustomed to entertain. The deceased leaves a daughter, Mrs. J.F. Baker, Clinton, Iowa; a sister, Mrs. Sarah Shippey, Grand Haven, Michigan; and two brothers, Webster Batchellerof Chicago, and Jenison Batcheller, Glens Falls, New York.

BELL, Leroy
Died of Hydrophobia.
CHICAGO Aug 15 - Leroy Bell, six years of age, died of hydrophobia a last night after eleven hours of agony The boy was attacked July 11 by a large dog, which threw him to the ground and tore his face and throat in a savage manner. The wounds however, healed rapidily and nothing more was thought of the matter until three days ago, when the boy complained of feeling ill. In spite of medical aid he grew rapidly worse, suffering from convulsions so violent that it required the strength of several men to hold himin his bed. The Pasteur institute had declined to treat the boy unless it was proven that the dog was mad, but as the dog could not be found nothing beyond cauterization was used to prevent hydrophobia.
