Frank A. BURRELLE DEAD.
Word was received yesterday by wireless that Frank A. BURRELLE, dean of
the press clipping business, died at sea Tuesday on the way from Costa Rica
to New Orleans. Mr. BURRELLE, accompanied by Mrs. BURRELLE, had been
traveling in South America for several weeks where he went on a trip for his health.
He sailed from Port Limon, Costa Rica on the steamship Parismina last
Saturday. Frank A. BURRELLE was a pioneer of the press clipping business which he
established twenty-three years ago, and which business he brought to its
present remarkable development. His original idea was to cover the personality,
aiming to supply artists, actors and other persons in public life with
comment concerning themselves. This idea was developed most successfully by Mr.
BURRELLE to cover much broader fields, extending the industry far beyond the
original purpose. During the past few years Mr. BURRELLE had gradually
relieved himself of the executive end of the business, which has been taken up by
his wife, Mrs. Nellie M. BURRELLE, who during this time had been the virtual
head of BURRELLE's Press Clipping Bureau, and who now, becomes the actual head.
Frank A. BURRELLE was born in Painesville, Ohio, May 25, 1856. Educated at
Saunders College, Philadelphia, he early started as a law clerk; went West,
and became identified with mining industry; represented Marshall FIELD, John
BORDEN, Maxey TABOR at Leadville, Col.; in a mining company and finally in
1886 started Burrelle's Press Clipping Bureau, which was successful from the
start, and which is now said to have ramifications extending to every country
in the civilized world.

dramatized "Griffith Gaunt," for which she was praised by the author,
Charles READE. She next dramatized "Archie Lovell," for Lotta. This was
afterward played by Miss Katie MAYHEW. Later Miss YOUNG wrote a drama for
Lady Emily DON, who played it extensively throughout England. About that
time Miss YOUNG married Mr. WALSH. She still continued her dramatic work,
however, and shortly after her marriage adapted a comedy from the German,
"Home," which was produced by Miss Kate REYNOLDS. This play was followed by
"Who Is She?" which made a hit at the St. Charles Theatre, New Orleans. Many
frequenters of the Old Bowery Theatre will remember Mrs. WALSH's drama, "Our
City," which had a long and profitable run. After the production of this
play misfortune began to crowd upon the young writer. Several of her
children died and her husband fell ill, so for years the pen was idle, and
not until 1883 did Mrs. WALSH resume her literary pursuits. When Henry C.
DEMILLE was reader of the Madison Square Theatre, Mrs. WALSH went to him with
a request to obtain for her the right to make a novel of the drama, "Hazel
Kirke." She had never undertaken anything of the kind, but felt confident of
success. The novel was written and published, running through several
editions. Encouraged by her success she continued in this line of work.
"The World," taken from the play of that name, was published as a serial and
two years later was brought out in book form under the title of "For Love of
Gold." Her next work was "Saints and Sinners." She then wrote an original
novel, "Wife of Two Husbands," in which she exposed much of the inner
workings of Mormon life. The fame of this story was widespread. Mrs. WALSH,
receiving numerous letters of congratulations, some from the Prince and
Princess of Wales, Mrs. Benjamin HARRISON, then mistress of the White House;
Miss Kate FIELD, Senator George EDMUNDS and many other well known people.
"The Romance of a Dry Goods Drummer" was Mrs. WALSH's next novel, followed by
a novelization of Henry DeMille's drama, "The Lost Paradise." Mrs. WALSH is
survived by a daughter, Grace A. WALSH, and a son, Edward W., also a brother,
Capt. S.E. YOUNG. The funeral will be held Wednesday morning, with solemn

The body of William RIVERS, the 5 year-old boy who had been missing
from his home at 42 Washington Street, Flushing, since May 7, and who was
believed to have been kidnaped by an organ-grinder, was found floating in
Flushing Creek, this morning, near the Long Island Railroad drawbridge. The
police were notified, and they sent for Coroner SCHAEFER. The body, in the
meantime, was fished out of the water and taken to the station house, where a
cursory examination showed no marks of violence.
When the little fellow disappeared the whole place was aroused in the
search for him and there were many who advanced varied theories as to what
had become of him. When no trace of him was found the next day the Flushing
Business Men's Association offered a reward of $25 for information concerning
his whereabouts. Numerous persons in the vicinity were sure they had seen an
Italian organ grinder with the boy on a lonely road outside of the village on
the night of his disappearance.
Mrs. RIVERS, the boy's mother, has been prostrated at her home ever
since the boy disappeared, and it is feared that when she learns of the boys
death she will break down completely. Relatives will break the news to her
as gently as possible today.
Police Captain TRACY says the story told by the drawbridge tender soon
after the boy disappeared probably explains how the little fellow met his
death. The bridge tender said he saw two boys, one of whom answered the
description of young RIVERS, in a rowboat on May 7. The other boy was about
15 years old. They were rowing in the creek and the bridge tender says he
watched them for a long while. His attention was attracted to them because
of the fact that the older boy who was handling the oars did not seem to know
how to row. Capt. TRACY believes the boat upset, later on; that the RIVERS
boy was drowned and that the other boy was afraid to report the tragedy.

PATRIACH OF FIVE GENERATIONS DIES
Joseph WALLERSTEIN, a retired clothing merchant, died yesterday at his
home, 340 Rockaway Avenue, in his 104th year.
His physical condition was most remarkable up to the very day of his
death, as is illustrated by what he did on Monday. After walking from his
home in Rockaway Avenue to the Jewish Temple of the Congregation Ohaz
Sholoum, Thatford and Belmont Avenues, at which he worshipped every morning
at 7 o'clock, he took his customary walk to the home of his son, Morris
WALLERSTEIN, 351 Belmont Avenue, where he chatted a while and then walked
back home, in all a distance of more than a mile. This has been his morning
habit for more than five years. On returning home Monday he remarked that he
only felt half his age, but yesterday found him not feeling well and shortly
before noon he passed away without a moan by just sleeping his life out.
He was born in Centre, Russia, in 1807, and came to Brooklyn with his
wife twenty-four years ago. His wife, Sadie, still lives at the Rockaway
Avenue address and is in her 103rd year. The couple had two sons and four
daughters. Two of the sons live in Brooklyn. Morris, 48 years old, is the
youngest, and is prominent in Brownsville, being interested in all Jewish
movements and a member of many orders. The other son in this country is
Leopold, a tailor, 65 years old, of 340 Rockaway Avenue. A daughter, Mrs.
Annie KRUGELICK, lives in Kansas City. The rest of the children live in
Russia. All of the children are married and there are forty grandchildren.
Twenty-five of the grandchildren are married and have children who are also
married and have children of their own who are also married and have
children, making in all five generations that survive the aged head of the house.
ROMANCE OF THE CATSKILLS - YOUNG MAN HAD TAKEN OTHER GIRL ON HOLIDAY TRIP.
Miss Julia HERTEL, 28 years old, a teacher in Public School 45, Union
Street, near Henry, committed suicide yesterday afternoon by inhaling
illuminating gas at her home, 427 Union Street. Her body was found by her
mother in the bathroom at 6 o'clock upon the latter's return from Greenwood
Cemetery, where she had been with her husband decorating the grave of a son
who died a few years ago. A piece of rubber tubing was running from the gas
jet to the girl's mouth.
Jealousy and despondency were supposed to have prompted the young
woman's act. Two years ago Julia spent the summer in the Catskills with her
sister Barbara, 26 years old, who is also a teacher and attached to Public
School 126, Meserole Avenue and Lorimer Street. There they met a young man
who was staying at a neighboring hotel, and as the three were from Brooklyn a
friendship sprang up which was renewed upon the return of the trio to their homes.
At first, according to Mrs. HERTEL, the mother of the girls, the man
extended courtesies to the girls impartially, but his attentions finally
centered on Miss Julia and they became firm friends. It was reported at one
time that they were engaged to be married.
Several months ago they quarreled and the young man transferred his
attentions to Miss Barbara, who accompanied him to theatres, dances and
dinner parties with much regularity. Against this Julia protested, Mrs.
HERTEL said, urging objection against the man, and invoked the interference
of her mother. Mr. HERTEL said she declined to take sides in the affair,
saying Barbara was the best judge of the man's fitness for companionship.
The man called early yesterday and there was a meeting with the entire
family. He had arranged to take Barbara on an excursion to Mauch Chunk, and
they left the house early. After dinner at noon, Mr. and Mrs. HERTEL
invited Julia to accompany them to the cemetery to decorate their son's
grave, but she declined to go.
"You needn't bother about decorating my grave," she is reported to
have said, but the remark was not taken seriously.
When Mr. and Mrs. HERTEL arrived home in the evening there was a
strong odor of gas from the bathroom and Mr. HERTEL started an
investigation. Seated on the floor, with the arms over the side of the
bathtub, was the lifeless girl. A rubber tube was close to her face. One
end of the tube was attached to a gas fixture. The rubber pipe was gripped
in the hands. Dr. John J. COREY, of 287 Hoyt Street, gave it as his opinion
the girl had been dead only a short time.
Mrs. HERTEL fainted when she saw her daughter's body, and had to be
given into the doctor's care when he arrived.
Julia HERTEL was appointed a teacher in the public schools seven years
ago last November.
