West Side and South Side. 10THERJ! DEAD Two Deaths in the McNulty Family on Seventh Street. FUNERAL OF ISAAC J. LEWIS Death ot Bessie Lewis of Price Street Mrs. Burllneame will be Burled This Afternoon Chief AYalker Gets Another Ilorse for Htmseir and the Franklins To Hang Up a New I'lcture Notesand Personals.

Another son and only child of Mr. and Mrs. Michael McNulty of 110 South Seventh street, died yesterday. This is the second death in the family within a few days. On Thursray night another son, named Frank, aged 12 years, died very suddenly and under very peculiar conditions.

Coroner Koberts was notified and, upon his arrival at the house, found the mother drunk in bed, while in another room lay the dead body of Frank, lieside the woman in the front bedroom laid the younger son, whose death occurred yesterday. The cause of Frank's death was attributed to diphtheria from which he had been suffering for several days prior to his demise. No physician was called and the sick lad was allowed to suffer by his worthless parents who were enjoying a debauchery together. Mrs. Duggan, agent for the board of associated charities, 'was also notified of the condition of the family, and the circumstances of the death of Frank.

She visited the home and found matters as reported to her to be true. Mrs. Duggan was about to take the other livin son to St. Patrick's Orphanage, where he was to be indentured, owing to the incapability of the parents, but Coroner Roberts, who was. aware of the prevalence of diphtheria in the McNulty home, warned Mrv Duggan not to remove the boy, lest other children in the orphanage might become ill of the same malady and cause an epidemic.

The boy was, there fore, allowed to remain at home. While the dead son's remains were being taken to the cemetery for interment on Saturday afternoon, the father was busily engaged in a search for a doctor, whose services he desired for the living son, who was well enough to accompany his father. Yesterday the boy died, of what is also supposed to be diphtheria. A physician was summoned but before his arrival the boy was dead. The boy's age was 5 years.

Coroner Roberts was notified and will investigate the ease today. a The remains of Frank 'were interred in Cathedral cemetery on Saturday afternoon. "When Funeral Director AVymbs went to the residence to take the body of the deceased boy in a van to the cemetery, there was no one to bid a tearful adieu; no father or mother to attend in mourning; no one, save Mr. AVymbs and his driver, to accompany the body to its final resting place. It was a piteous scene one which will not be soon forgotten by the neighbors, who witnessed the departure.

The father was absent from the house at the time, while it is claimed the mother was yet intoxicated in bed. Interment was made without the usual assemblage of sorrowing friends and relatives surrounding the gaping grave. Such exhibitions of parental indifference and cold heartedness 'has not been seen or heard of in this locality before. MRS. BURLING AME DEAD.

Mrs. Mary Burlingame a widely known resident of the AVest Side, died on Friday at her home, 170 South Hyde Park avenue.

823 Woodlawn Park DUNflORE. Opening of a Series of Revival Services at the Tripp Avenue Christian Church Mechanics Celebration. A large audience assembled in the auditorium of the Tripp Avenue Christian church last evening to listen to the word of God as explained by the Rev. Mr. Cobb of Illinois, who delivered an interesting sermon and succeeded In impressing his audience from beginning to end.

The sermon was the first of a series to be delivered in the church during the coming four weeks. Prominent members will be in attendance during these meetings and deliver addressses. Kev. Mr. Cobb was here one year ago and his sermons were well enjoyed.

Rev. Mr. Cobb took as his text, "Christian Success," and, in part, said: "Jesus said to Peter, strengthen your brethren to find a sincere Christian faith, whereby happiness may be found and enjoyed. AVe love success and as Christian people love to see God's cause advance and draw His children together, so as to find the place where He can best oppose sin and sinful works and doings. The divine was to successfully embrace the time when Jesus looked down upon the young master, Stephen, in his dying statement said: 'Behold.

I see the Lord I and as 'he passed away said: 'Lord, forgive them, 'for they know not what they "Then followed the conversion of Paul, who walked in the fear of the Lord and did wonderous works; peace from prosecution and mingled among men doing good which Avas manifest wherever God directed his footsteps. Some qualities are developed by war. Many men, such as our brave boys Who died from fever during the last war; many who faced the enemy's guns, but even these would undobuted ly have sunk had they been the guides of our dear Lord during his stay on earth, more especially the latter part. It Is the silent review that does the work perfect, fully. Men weep; we weep, but a silent review builds up and multiply characters, comforted by the Holy Spirit.

Full nets make sinking ships, if Jesus be not on board, so that If we truly succeed and make a real success, we must have the divine peace through our Lord Jesus Christ. "No Christian can hold a grudge. A Christian should resent a wrong; but not in the way wrongs are generally resented. The insult should be written on the sand so that the first wave should and could wash it away and in so doing success is bound to be the result. "The divine way to success has been upon us In our work during the past year, and the result is wonderful.

This is the keynote of our meetings. Christian success, and while we labor faithfully and earnestly together at our meetings may God's spirit be, with us to inspire us and advance mir work, and encourage us, as our object is to convert slnnners and lead them in the light of God's love for us. to lead us to the Cross of Jesus and renounce our sins."
