JOSEPH H. BUTLER DEAD
Passed Away at 3:30 O'clock at His Home on Thirteenth Avenue.

Joseph H. Butler, one of the city's best known residents, died at 3:30
this morning at his residence at 1216 Thirteenth avenue, of congestion
of the lungs, after a brief illness.  Mr. Butler was employed in the
shops of the Pennsylvania Railroad company and had been ill but a
short time, although his health had not been of the best for some
time.  He had long been identified with the national guard and was a
Republican in politics. He was a brother-in-law of Richard Smith, who
yesterday retired from the office of city treasurer.  He was a member
of St. John's Catholic church.
