Judge J. W. Macy, the genial and popular jurist of Winchester, and who has often sat in judgment and presided in the Adams circuit court. He has practically abandoned his practice of law, and after the holidays will hike to California where he w’ill seek to regain that vnich at the present time seems to be lost —good health. His many friends liere and elsewhere will constantly hope that he will win the case. Congress began their heavy work yesterday with a session lasting about fifty-nine seconds. The president's message engaged their attention today, but after a custom of almost seeing visions of blood in Roosevelt’s message, that of Taft today is even too tame to mention with any degree of seriousness. It is doubtless a good documentary message, but the fire is all gone, boys, and if we want any fun we will have to get up a dog fight. Mr. Taft ought to please those conservatives who do the big things with the blinds down, but he will be one continuous grand disappointment to those who love excitement in public life. C.'E. Laugherty returned home from Fort Wayne, where he was looking after some business. Mrs. Dr. Cornell and babe went to Fort Wayne where they will spend several days visiting with relatives. Gus Reinking went to Fort Wayne where he was looking after business for the Yager Bros and Reinking furniture store.
