Death of Conductor Emory F. Miller.

  Yesterday afternoon at half-past 12 o'clock Mr. Emory F. Miller died 
at his home at No. 1907 Union avenue, of pneumonia, after an illness of 
about one week.  He was aged 29 years and was a conductor on the 
mountain division of the Pennsylvania railroad.  In that capacity he 
was ever faithful and attentive to his duties and deserved the respect 
which was shown him by others.  Mr. Miller leaves a wife and four 
children - two sons and two daughters - the eldest being eight years 
old.  He was a member of the First Methodist Episcopal church; of the 
Pennsylvania railroad relief fund, and of Excelsior commandery No. 66, 
Knights of Malta.  The time for the funeral will be announced to-
morrow.
