***
A sad death occurred at the Beach hotel Tuesday morning. The little baby of Mr. and Mrs. Milo Beach was found dead, evidently having been suffocated accidentally in the bedclothes. The little stranger was hardly a month old, and his unexpected and tragic death was doubly sorrowful.

The funeral was held from the house Wednesday afternoon.

***
A sad affair took place Tuesday morning in the Beach hotel. The infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Milo Beach was found dead, evidently smothered by the bed clothes. The little one was scarcely a month old, and had always been very frail. It is a great blow to the sorrowing young mother.
