Übstwvd at flha poetofflce in Decatur, Indiana, as aecond-clase mal. Aviator "Rodgers expects to reach Decatur by tonight. While this seems highly improbable ou account of the stiff northwest wind, it is not impossible, since the bird man covered a dis- i tance of 210 miles Thursday in less , than that many minutes. He spent Thursday night at Kent. Ohio. Should he reach Chicago by Saturday he will have clipped off a big chunk of the distance to the w’estetn coast. The question 01 .more houses will ; scon be confronting our city. Even now it is almost impossible to find an empty house, at least one fit to live in. With a strong possibility of landing ; cne or two good industries,, with the increase in the automobile plant, doubling its capacity and consequently; the number of employees, with the in- ; crease in the labor list at the Schaler ] Sadlery factory of a dozen or more j men, with the general stor in business circles, where will we put the people .' j It's a mighty serious question and one that will need some consideration. I soon. Think it over. Now that the Taft administration has found itself in the middle of a troubled political stream it proposes j to change horses. The tariff and ret i-1 procity horse, as a means of carrying .Mr. Taft into another term as president is to be abandoned, and in its . place' will be substituted the anti-trust horse The president's friends, and the president himself, are about ready io aomit that the people will not endorse his tariff program, so be plans now to ' begin shouting at the trusts in an el- . iort to divert attention from his efforts as a tariff reformer. That this change is to be made in policy is indicated by Attorney General Wicker-1 sham, who has let it be known that he intends to get aftsr some of the big corporations. That President Taft’s opposition to the trusts will be about as sincere as his advocacy of tariff revision downward is indicated by his Detroit speech, in which he > c- pr*sed amendment to the anti-trust law. * - • A NEAR ACCIDENT. Otto Keller, "lay-out" boy at the j Waring glove factory, met with a narrow escape from injury' Wednesday at . starting time. He got his hand caught in one of the shafts, and but for the fact that the plant is run by electric-: ity, and that some one was nearby to turn off the power at once, he' might have been drawn into the shaft and badly if not fatally injured. He ; was not injured, however, and was able to continue his work. — —gEXECUTOR'S SALE. The undersigned will offer for sale at the late residence of his mother, Mrs. Mary J.

The same floral decorations were carried out here as in the other rooms, the sidej board being banked with the delicate ■ w hite of cherry blossoms mingled j with the little purple field flowers. In I one corner under a large Japanese narasol stood the tea table covered > with a dainty Japanese figured tea i cloth. A screen with Japanese panels ; and pictures was placed behind this ;as a background, and against this. , guarded by twinkling green and red tapers, stood the hostess as she pour- , cd from a dainty Japanese tea uro into 1 Jap cups and saucers the tea, which was served to the guests, seated Japj anese style on cushions on the floor, • The refreshments throughout carried j out the Japenese idea, the first course ' being chop suey and rice, served by the Holthouse Case caterer, and tea. the second course being almond shaped nabiscoes, white angel food cake 1 i with cherries, yellow, lavender and red mints and cherry ice, guarded by tiny Japanese parasols as souvenirs.

j WILLSHIRE IS BASE BALL MAD. Another Big Contest Announced For Sunday in Neighboring Town. The town of Willshire is base ball mad, and when a town of its size gets it, they get it all over. Decatur people know how It is, for they have gone through It at various times in the past. The Ohio team has secured the services of a half dozen good amateurs, in eluding three or four Decatur boys ' and by the way they are putting up an ] article of ball that makes any of the towns go some. About three weeks ago the Toledo Melvins defeated the Willshirt club, but two weeks ago the tables were turned. Now the third and deriding game for the championship is to be played next Sunday and a big crowd is expected. According to the Toledo Blade the Melvins are ' coming down to win, having secured the services of Ralph Comstock, who created a sensation in the Cotton States league this summer by winning twenty-two out of twenty-six games. He has been signed by the Minneapolis team for next year. A number of De- ' entur people will no doubt go over to see the game. PLEASE SETTLE AT ONCE, j ——.
