Funeral of Capt. Conover - The funeral of Capt. Conover will take place on tomorrow forenoon at 10 o'clock from the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Leonard Marcellus, 7th street. Members of G. A. R. will act as pallbearers. Interment at Fairview cemetery.

Died of Paralysis - Mr. Stephen D. Conover, for a number of years a resident of this county, afterward a resident of Kansas, and who returned to Bismarck a year or so ago, died last night at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Marcellus, as a result of a paralytic stroke he suffered some weeks ago. He has gradually grown weaker since the stroke of paralysis and his advanced age operated against his recovery. Mr. Conover was 78 years of age at the time of his death. He was a veteran of the civil war, having been a member of the 125th Illinois. Personally he was a clever and respected gentleman, the news of whose death will be learned with regret by many friends. He leaves a wife, one daughter, Mrs. Marcellus, and a son. The funeral will be held at ten o'clock tomorrow morning at the home on Seventh street.
