Jus' a little slip nearer the middle of the street would have proven fatal to the child and through no fault of the driver of the auto.

Miss Mary Schwartz has returned to Fort Wayne after visiting for several days with friends at Decatur. —Fort Wayne Journal Gazette.

I The Misses Mary and Amelia Nib lick are moving from the old home J stead, and will store their furniture 1 until their new home, the Closs homestead. is remodeled and ready for i their occupancy. They are making i their home with Mrs. Catherine Closs] until then. The crowds which collect on the streets in the evening previous to the leaving of the business men who arc holding meetings at the various school houses throughout, the county attract many passersby, who wonder what is up and what is the attraction. Wheirj told it is more sugar beets, that ex-, plains it, and they either go away sat-1 Isfied, or join In with the many al-1 ready interested, making more beets still. Frank and James Edington, formerly I of this city, who have been conducting | a racket store at Nappanee for the . past eleven months, have sold the same to a Bluffton man, and are preparing to return to this city to make , their home, both being now in this city i getting things ready for the re-estab- ] ' lishment of their home here. They enjoyed a good business at Nappanee, but the dampness of the climate there did , not agree with thehealth of their moth-1 er, hence the decision to dispose of | the store and return here. i This morning at her home three i , miles northeast of the city, Mrs. John ■ R. Peoples submitted to an operation | for fibroid tumor and other complies- j tions from which she had been suffer-1 ing for a number of years. Her condition is regarded as being very seriou;, 'owing to the various ailments, which have placed her in a very weakened londition. Considerable blood was also lost by the patient, again adding ; to her previous weakness, and al i though the operation was very sue ] cessful in itself, much time will be re- . quired before developments concern ing recovery will be noted. ■ | On her way to work Thursday noon Gusta Cramer met with an accident • which will prove painful for the next Hew days. She had reached the co - ner of Monroe and Second streets, am, | was in the act of stepping off the I curb when a wheel, unnoticed by h< '; turned the corner, coming from tin ' ! east, and collided with her, throwin i her to the street. She was carri ; into the Winncs shoe store, and a phv , sician, who witnessed the accident, forded temporary relief. Her left arm t was badly bruised and the back of her head gave much pain, where she struck the hard pavement. Today, however, she is unable to work air the real extent of her injuries is just becoming apparent. NOVELIST DIES. s (United Press Service.) Cleveland, Ohio. Oct.
