DEATH OF DR. GREENE.
He Passes Away Last Tuesday at His Home on East Wabash AfVenue After a Long Illness.
Dr. J. W. Greene died last Tuesday at 10 o'clock at his home on east Wabash avenue. He begun to fail over two years ago from Blow paralysis following the grip and had been bedfast since February. He had failed rapidly during the past week but it was not thought his condition was serious. He was taken much worse, however, Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock and death ensued in two hours. The funeral occurred at the home on Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
JameB Wilson Greene was born February 1, 1829, in Greene county, Ohio being the youngest son of John and Nancy Greene. In 1832 he came with his parents to St. Joseph county, Ind., and there grew to manhood. When twenty-six years of age he relinquished a prosperous lumber business to enter the Methouist ministery, being admitted as a member of the north west Indiana conference. His first pastorate was at Michigan City, he filliD(r there the ucexpired term of minister whose health had failed. He held then terms at Crown Point, Stockwell and Delphi, and in 1864 was sent to Indianapolis. After that time his pastoral work was confined to In dianapolis, Greencastle, Terre Haute and Crawfordsvilie. He was also presiding elder of the Terre Haute and Crawfordsvilie districts and was for several years financial agent of DePauw University of which institution he was trustee for quite a number of years. His active relations with the ministry ceased almost a decade ago but until his health failed he was frequently called upon in a ministerial capacity. During the civil war he was stationed at Indianapolis andiwas member of the commission appointed by Gov. Morton to visit the soldiers hospitals and afford relief. He was in 1880 a delegate to the general con ference of the church and in 1890 re ceived the honorary degree of D. from DePauw University. December 25, 1801, he was married to Miss Cath arine Elizabeth Organ, daughter of Samuel Organ, of LaPorte, who with four sons survives him. The children are Robert J. Greene, of Lincoln, Neb., Jesse A. Greene and Dr. Henry E. Greene, of Crawfordsvilie, and Philip T. Greene, of Lincoln, Neb. Dr. Greene also leaves two brothers and one sister, Daniel Greene, of South Band, Nelson Greene, of Danville, and Mrs.
Martha In wood, of South Bend.
A Sad Death,
Tuesday morning at the home of her parentB, on Garden street, Miss Ruby E.Sies passed quietly away after an extended illness of consumption. Miss Sies was 21 years old and a peculiarly sad feature of her death was that she had only just graduated in June from the city high schools. She was a member of the Christian church and an earnest worker in the Chrltian Endeavor and Sunday school. Her presecca will be greatly missed in that house of worship, where she was ever ready and willing to work for the cause of the Master she had accepted. Hers was a beautiful and enduring life and though short it was long enough to leave in impression that will not soon be forgotten. In the Sunday school she had picked up a number of children who had not been accustomed to attend, and organized a clasB, which she successfully taught. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Sies.
The funeral was at the residence at 2 clock Thursday afternoon. Interment at Oak Hill.

SCHOOL APPORTIONMENT.
The Money For the School Expenses of the Different Counties Has Been Apportioned.
The apportionment of school funds for June haB been completed by the state department of public instruction at Indianapolis. This is the apportionment of the May taxes and the per capita allowances is 81.45 as against SI.41 at the last apportionment. The apportionment of each county will be sent to the county auditors in a day or two and then the fund will be apportioned to townships and other school corporations within the county. The total school enumeration of Montgomery county is given at 8,423, and the total amount of taxes collected from it was 813,639.75. TLis county will get back out of this amount at 81.45 per capita, the Bum of 812,213 35 for school purposes. This is better than usual, as Montgomery county always

the worst of the
deal by about enough to swallow up the interest on the school money loaned. This difference between the amount collected for school purposes and the amount returned for the same purpose goes to help out counties that do not collect enough money to run their schools for the year.

and was still open. His suspicions becoming aroused he awakened his brother Guy, who rooms with him, and asked him if he had left the window open. Guy had not and he also discovered that a dollar and a half waB missing from his trousers.

AN IMPOSING §PgQTACLE,
Solomon, His Temple aud tlie Queen of Shel% as Presented by John Itoblnson's Great Circus,
To the skeptic 01 the agnostio as well as to the devout believer in the sacred scriptures, the era of the great King Solomon's reign is and can be naught else but the most impressive, the most interesting and the grandest in all history. There are no parallels in all the records of the p»st nothing approximating in grandeur, in wisdom and sublimity, in any chronicle of modern ages. It was then a felicitous conception of the management of John Robinson's great world's exposition to reproduce the scenes, personages, incidents and events in the reign of Solomon,^ the grand old patriarch, sage and king, That they have done this thoroughly, acceptably and successfully, the public and the press unanimously attest. The great biblical spectacle, in its powerfulsceneograph-' ic effects, in its accurate and realistio personations, and the sumptuous lavishness attending its representations, is pronounced with universal accord to be not only a triumph of art, but a revelation of the history of the past that has never had a precedent. Our citizens will have the opportunity of seeing this grand spectacle in connection with the manifold other wonders of the John Robinson show, on Friday, July 7.
0 rhe Van's I.lttle Suit.

The legal battle promis^B to ba one of the fiercest ever waged in an Indiana court, and the attorneys who will engage in the suit are among the best of their profession.
A Card of Thanks.
I wish to say that I feel under lasting obligations for what Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has done for our family. We have used it in so many oases of coughs, lung troubles and whooning cough, and it has always given the most perfect satisfaction. We feel greatly indebted to the manufacturers of this remedy and wish them to please accept our hearty thanks.-Respeet-fully, MRS. S^ Dour, Des Moines, Iowa, For sale by Ny & Booe, druggists. 1
