Fourth and Walnut SIMPLICITY. TRIBUTE OF MR. DAWES. Hundreds of Men From All Walks of Life Attend. GBAVE HEAPED WITH FLOWERS.

The greatest tribute to the memory of Zack Phelps was paid yesterday when hundreds of people of every class lr. life surrounded the open grave In Cave Hill cemetery and with undisguised emotion saw the remains of this great friend of his lowered to their last earthly resting-place. The first services were held at the residence, 1510 I3ast Broadway, and were conducted by the P.ev. B. A.

Dawes, pastor of the Highland Baptist church. Mr. Dawes gave a brief but complete summary of Mr. Phelps' characteristics, which served to make him the husband and father, who took this as a hub from which radiated Innumerable spokes of gentleness, kindness and conslderate- ness, all serving to hold strongly the endless tire of charity, which in Mr. Phelps' life never vaunted itself and never failed to again demonstrate that while faith, hope and charity may abide, the greatest of these is charity.

Loved Home and Fellow-man. The professional, intellectual or work ing life of Mr. Phelps was not touched upon by the clergyman except to show that its marvelous success had as Its chief cornerstone boundless love for home and brother man. Air. Dawes closed his remarks by saying: "The death of Mr.

Phelps was un doubtedly hastened by overwork, but this sprung not from any sordid motive, but from his love for his profession and his eagerness to render full duty to his clients." The services at the residence closed with a brief prayer, after which the coflln was carried to the hearse by the following close friends of Mr. Phelps: Chas. F. Grainger, H. W.

Brown, Fred Hoertz. II. M. Drennan, J. E.

Pile Board of Trade.

The entire plans ot the association will be laid before the meeting and some general scheme will be agreed upon to give It further publicity. The merchants of Louisville have taken hold of the fair and propose to make it a success, but to do this It is necessary that they have the co-operation of all classes of business men. The fair has been undertaken for the purpose of advertising the city and attracting other merchants here. All interested in the fair of course ar.e anxious to extend the city's trade into other centers and know of no better way than through the medium of a great fair, which will be made up of the best exhibits that money can secure. The railroads have already granted remarkably low rates fcr the occasion, and if proper interest is taken the event will bo a big success.

The association is spending considerable money to advertise in the South. and at this meeting it hopes to get th commercial bodies of the city inter ested to such an extent that they, too, will make It known through the chan nels of trade. The traveling men who travel out of Louisville for local houses will be asked to lend a hand in auv tlsing the fair among their customers. The date and place of the meeting will be made known this week, and tne as sociation extends an Invitation to every merchant who feels an Interest in its success to attend. The Executive Committee of the as sociation has made no further arrange ments for the use of the white arch during the fair.

Within the next eighteen months an even more unusual event will be celebrated in the golden Jubilee of Father Bax's priesthood. Few priests remain In charge of one parish for a consecutive period of forty-five years and It is exceedingly rare tltat one lives to celebrate his priesthood's golden Jubilee. Father Bax came to Louisville directly from a Catholic seminary near Bards-town and indtreatly from abroad in 1S56 and assumed charge of St. John's parish. He was then twenty-eight years of age and had been a priest nearly four years, coming to America and to Kentucky when the country was considered a field for missionaries of the Catholic faith.

Yet there were many in the parish at that time, even more than now, for some have scattered to other churches which have been erected since theti. Small Beginning. The original St. John's church was a small structure located on Jefferson street. It seated 240 people.

There were ten times as many people In the parish, however, and the need of en larging St. John's was soon very great.

One day a party of his parish people accosted him and said, "Father Bax. where wore you born?" "Can't you guess?" said their rector. "No," was the reply, "because we do not think you come either from Ireland or from Germany and we know you are not a Frenchman." "That's rignt.

I come from none of those countries," said Father Bax. Then the questioners named all of the foreign countries they could think of. In cluding even Russia, but the pastor shook nls head. "Then what country were you born in? asked the parishoners, much perplexed. "Well," said Father Bax, "I cannot tell you because the country in which I was born no longer Then he passed on, smiling, and it was several years before the narlsh generally understood that Father Bax was born in theTJnlted Kingdom of tne Netherlands In 182S, which was merged into the Kingdoms of Belgium and of Holland In 1S30.
