              CAPT. ALFRED ACKERMAN, aged 88, a pionner sailing
            master of the Great Lakes, died at his home near
            Kenosha last week Wednesday. CAPT. ACKERMAN was 
            a familiar figure on Lake Michigan forty years
            ago. It was he that built the Rouse Simmons, the 
            "Christmas tree ship" that foundered with all hands
            last fall. He sailed her until he retired in 1888.
            Interment took place at Kenosha on Friday.
