•fifty will be thankfully received and honestly used. There Is only a week for the finish. Your money should be I sent in at once. 1 The women of England buy Ameri- ( can made shoes that sell here for , ! |3.50 for $2.20. Do you think it is i right? Do you think somebody takes ( 1 advantage of the protective tariff and 11 over cWhrges you? The same thing Is > i! true of nearly every article you use, •; and the time Is here for a halt. That's I i what the democratic party promises :ou if given the power. They will do , it in a safe and sane way but they will do it. You hear much of the I ’ talk that the tariff affects the priced ! farm products. The price of wheat ' is msdo in Liverpool. This nation » I raises more wheat than is needed and the surplus is sold at Liverpool in competition with the world. The price is made there and governs the price 1 paid here. And tliats just as much I the real merit of the tariff as on other ' lines. Its balderdash, pure and simpl". In his speech at Fort Wayne Mr. Durbin made some most serious charges against Mr. Beveridge, and challenged him to deny them. Durbin said that in the campaign of two years ago. a campaign of which Beveridge j was the supreme master. $85,000 pass ed through the hands of his committee, which was, Durbin says, more than twice as much money as was ever s|>ent before in Indiana in an off * year. Here is the challenge: 1 bow ask Senator Beveridge, where did he get it? I dare his chairman of two years ago- his .luurrnan of today—to give, au accounting to the i>eople of Indiana of the sources of the vast sums rained ana used ui Senator Beveridge's behalf two years ago I assert that Senator Beveridge dare not permit the making pub- j He of the receipts and disbursements of bis committee in tbe last campaign for tbe senatorship. 1 , assert that such a publication would reveal questionable receipts and questionable expend)- I , titres that would make a mockery of Senator Bevuridge's profession of devotion to dean politics and I opposition to six-citl interests.

SUSANh"' J MUTSC I ER. Nee Huber, was born on the thirteenth of April, 1838, in Handschucbshehn, Baden, Germany. She was brought up n the nurture and admonition of the Ixvrd. After a thorough course of instructions in the principles of our Christian religion, she was confirmed April 13, 1851. She was united in holy wedlock with Friedrich Mutschler. This happy marriage was blessed with four children, al! of whom are still living. The death angel hovered over the home and on the Ist of October, 1881, took her husband from her side. Two of her sons had come over to America and settled here in Root township, Adams county, Ind. When her son, Fred, upon his wedding trip, visited with her, she also decided to ?ome to America. She, accompanied by the rest of her children, left the fatherland on the 30th of Aprils 1886, and came to America, where she settled on the farm in Root township with her son, Fred. Later on, she moved to her home on North Second street, where she lived until about four years ago, when she was persuaded to move to the home of her daughter, Mrs. Sophia Kirsch. Mrs. .Mutschler was a quiet, unassuming woman. She departed this life very suddenly on the evening of the 13th of October, 1912, having attained the goodly age of 74 years and 6 months. There remains to mourn her departure one sister, living in Germany; three sons, one daughter, seven grandchildren, and other relativs and friends. o THE ROSARY. i "The Rosary," the play which was the talk of the country last season is reapeating this season. This successful piny of Edward E. Rose's which is founded upon an emblem of purity, is a tale of everyday life in w hich the good is exalted o.'er the evil, showing the principal character of a Catholic priest as the modern day finds him. It is through the priest that a misunderstanding in the Wilton family is correctly adjusted and the misery and entragement cleared up. Intermingled with the valuable moral effects of I the show is a beautiful love story, and also abundance of comedy that the average theatregoer doesn't expect to witness owing to the title of the play. Undivided strength is attached to the cast, which will consist of Frank Kilday. Florence Wright, Nettie De Coursey, Eleanor Rella. Harry Pride, A. C. Van Silke. Reginald Knorr, Henry Gar ron and others. "The Rosary' with the entire staging that Row land nod Clifford have so handsomely given with the play, will be seen here Saturday matinee and night, October 26. Bosse Opera House.

A HALLOWE’EN PARTY Given By Mcsdames Lankenau and Hite an Enjoyable Affair There's many a trouble Would break like a bubble, And into the waters of Lethe depart Did we not rehearse it And tenderly nurse it And give it a permanent place in the heart.—Philip Brooks. The Decatur Club, an organization of former Decatur ladle* now residing in Fort’ Wayne, was delightfully entertained Thursday afternoon by Mrs M. bl Smith at her home on Weibke street. The next meeing will be with Mrs. Q. X. Hilderbrand. Those present were Mrs. Margaret Louthan Mrs. Ben Hill, Mrs. Oscar Jones, Mrs. U B. Brokaw, Mrs. Q. N. Hilderbrand and Mrs. Fred Snyder. The matter of the Indiana federation of clubs indorsing equal stlft frage was presented to the convention i by Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter in a very diplomatic manner and was as diplomatically dodged. After considerable debate it was decided that as the hour . was late and few delegates were pres- ■ ent no vote was taken and the question was thus evaded. A resolution from the Woman's Franchise of Indi- ' anapolis had been received asking that the federation give its sentiment i in regard to equal suffrage as no word I had been expressed one way or another. The question will no doubt be ' brought up again aext year. Fort I Kenyon Walters gave a delightful i party Thursday evening in compliment to his cousin.
