WERE NO BIDDERS I ■ — I There Were No Bidders For , the Dcatur Packing Company Plant Today. THE LAND WAS SOLD John Fuhrman Bought Thir-ty-three Acres For $2.200 —Horse Also Sold. The sale of the Decatur Packing Company plant this morning failed to bring forth even a single bidder, and as a result no sale of the company's property was effected. Thirty-tnret acres of land belonging to the company was sold to John Fuhrman, tbe same going for two-thirds of the appraisement. $2,200. and this was dirt cheap. A horse was olso sold, but outside of this there was nothing doing. Receiver Charlie Voglewede and Auctioneer John Spuhler did their level best to start something, but their efforts were all in vain? There were simply no bidders for the plant and no inducement could make them. The situation is one in which neither the receiver, his attorney or any one else can make any prediction or plans for the future. The appraised valuation is now so low that a further reduction is not even a possibility. and the only thing now con sidered is that some one who knows this business will offer the present appraised value and close the matter up. No further instructions will come from the court until it meets the first of September, and until then it is likely the matter will remain as it is now. A MARTYR TO LOVE * 1 r ?. (Continued fton» page 1.) ed how far the shot would carry, and asked if it was guaranteed to work well, and stated that he would prefer the smaller one, as it was lighter and handier. He waited for his change, ■ and seemed no unusual customer, the only thing noticed by Mr. Kiess be . ing that he hurried from the store ■ with greater speed than rhe usual cu- , tomer. Walked With Him to Park. Henry Trim, a well known man of this city, walked with Potter from the | bridge to the park entrance Tuesday afternoon, two two happening along at the same time, and was perhaps the last person who saw him alive. Arriving at the buildings at the west side of the park Potter asked Trimm what they were. Trimm informing him that one was the ice house and the other had formerly been used as a saloon. Potter stated that lie be-I lieved he would investigate and turned into the driveway at the park. Trftnm walked on and shortly afterwards ,heard a shot. Thinking the occurrence rather unusual. Trimm looked at his watch and noted that it was just 12:04 o’clock. If this were the shot fired by Potter, there must be some difference in the timepieces of the several parties, as the hardware clerk stated that the revolver was not purchased until after 1 o'clock. Made Many Acquaintances. The unfortunate young man came to this city about four weeks ago, in company with John DeHaven of Toledo. and a Mr. Donaldson of Medina, Ohio. All were teachers or students front Oberlin. Ohio, who were spending the summer serving as agents in order to help pay their expenses for the winter at college. Mr. Potter was a teacher of violin in the Oberlin Conservatory. and also a student in languages, etc., in tbe Oberlin college. He had spent two winters studying in Leipsic, Germany, and was a most accomplished musician, as well as being highly educated in other lines. He made many friends while here and was well liked by all. For the winter he had received an appointment to serve as teacher in a college in North Dakota, and expected to take up that work in the fall. DeHaveu, who was working here, suffered a sprained ankle and was forced to return to his home at Toledo about two weeks ago. while Donaldson, the other comrade, became sick with stomach trouble and returned about a week ago. both Im ing away at the time of the unfortunate death of their triend. Friends Know no Cause. Messrs. DeHaven and Donaldson arrived today and wire much shocked -over the death of their friend. They stated that they were in very intimate relation with his affairs and knew ab solutely nothing to cause the rash act, and most certainly not remorse of ant sort, as he was a man of the highest morals, kind hearted, clean minded

and honest throughout. He was it ■ musician of unusual ability, highly | strung and of very sensitive nature and changeable moods, and it is sup-1 posed that he did the act in a mood of despondency. He was to have been I marred in August, it is said, to Miss I Armstrong, after which they were to . go to Grand Forks, N. Dak., where he had a position as teacher in n collcg His funds at this time were uub stringent and II Is thought tha th • , may have contributed to the cutis ■ his despondency. QUITE A SUCCESS Large Crowds Attending the Geneva Chautauqua This Week. HOBSON TONIGHT Fire Destroyed the Barn i Owned by Mrs. Catherine Mundhank. Geneva. Ind.. July 20 —(Special to Daily Democrat)—The Chautauqua is now moving along smoothly and everything is working like clock work. Fair weather marks an epoch in the performances and the crowds are increasing daily. Tuesday at 2:15 was the first appearance of the National Chautauqua band and orchestra, which is composed of eleven members and who gave a most delightful entertainment. This was followed by Dr. Charles F. Sheldon in his famous lecture. "The Making of a Man." Mr. Sheldon in a one and one-half hours' talk said some things that will be remembered by those present for many years to come. Some of the essentials that enter into the making of a good man and woman as stated bv the Doctor are, honesty of purpose moral courage, grit, cultivation of a Spirit of cheerfulness, love of home, love of country and a love and rever- , ence to God. the giver of every good gift. Be original and be yourself at all times and under all circumstances and the banner of success will unfurl , at the end of the race. In the evening another large and appreciative audience was entertained by the Chautauqua orchestra and treated to some high class music. The • cornet solo by Mr. Coleman, the cello | solo by Mr. McFadden, and the zillo-' phone solo by Mr. Higgs, deserve special mention. Every one was more than satisfied with the two hours of music rendered by this splendid orchestra. Captain Richard Pearson Hobson has arrived and is ready for his en- ' gagement this evening when he ap- ■ pears in his lecture "Our Country's Destiny.” Mi Gilbert Fisher, who has been prospecting in the west for a year, is at home for a visit with his parents. Mr. Fisher likes the west, but he likes good old Adams county better. Mrs. Al Burdg hnd son. Joe, of Decatur were visiting friends here Tuesday, returning home on the afternoon train. Mrs. Catherine Mundhank, living on Main street, lost a barn on her farm northwest of Geneva. The barn was filled with hay and implements, the total loss being about five thousand dollars. This was partially covered with insurance. Mrs. Frank Miller of Rural Route 2, who was operated on at the Portland hospital a short time ago, is making rapid improvement, and will be brought home the last of the week. M. E.

Martin Jaberg and wife came in this afternooon over the Grand Rapids. they coming from Rome City, where they have been spending tht last week. They left their western home on June 30th and most of the time since have been on the road. | They both left here last November. I going to Toreva, Arizona, where they were employed by the government as teacher in one of their Indian schools. Toreva is eighty miles from the rail road and this led to many discomfort ures that led to their abandon - ment of this work. Otherwise it was pleasant and contained many features that were thoroughly enjoyed. They asked for a transfer to New Mexico, which place has a similar school and is located on the railroad This transfer was refused, so they took a twenty-six days' leave of absence and tomorrow their resignation will go forward to the government. They will again become residents of this place and for that fact their many friends here will rejoice. It has been an experience they both will remember as long as they live, but outside of that not very profitable.

John Schlagel. residing in the north part of the city, who a short time ago met with an accident and injured his hands very painfully, met with another accident this morning, which will cause him to be laid up some time longer, and which is also very painful. He had his hands all bandaged up from the injuries received a the first accident, and the cloths saturated with turpentine. This morning, while sitting at his home, and wishing to pass the time with a tie more pleasure, secured .-s pipe and filled it with tobacco. When he struck the match the turpentine took fire and burned --*s quite severely. and although he tried to extinguish the flames he was unsuccessful until he ran out of the house and plunged them into a bucket of water. He at once came to the city, where he had his wounds dressed, and he is now resting as well as could be expected. WHAT A SUMMER COLD MAY DO.
