The Geneva correspondent to the Fort Wayne Gazette has perpetrated another joke upon that paper in the shape of a lob lolly monstei, which he said was caught at that place, and used a column in describing the thrilling story of i’s capture. Will they never let up on that lob lolly monster story. ~ "Leland.” If there is one thing that Decatur needs, a;ter we have got water works and natural gi«, it is an Opera House. The one we now boast of is not much better than a barn, and it is an impossibility for a good show to make a presentable appearance in it. A number of our p-ople have learned that it is cheaper to go to Fort Wayne and see a good show for $2 50 than it is to see one here for fifty cents. Tom Byrd, who has been working for B. W, Sholty for the past year, suddenly left town last week. He left many credi tors and also his wife and little child in a starving condition. The neighbors kindly provided for his family and purchased his wife a ticket so that she could get to her folks By rdis a worthless fellow and what money he earned he spent in the saloons. The sooner the community is rid of such fellows the better. ■ 4 — ' » ■’ - ..

She was sixty-three yesrs old, and had been a 1 resident of this county for about forty I years, raising a large family of children I She retired on Monday evening in her usual health, none of the family knowing anything being wrong with h.r. The ! daughter with whom she slept noticed her making a strange noise in the morning and speaking to her received no answer, she ' took hold of her and attempted to raise her up, when she found her dead. She was among the most respected of the neighborhood. ' Owing to an oversight in bur tabulated 1 statement of the primary election and in justice to one of the candidates for Com- . tnissioner, we make a correction for his ! benefit. In Jefferton township his vote should have been 40 instead of o; and in ’ Decatur south it should have been 62 in stead of 2; and in Decatur north it should have been 99 instead of 9. While the , total was coriect the error was in the . statement of the different precincts by typographical errors, and the same is true I in the yore of Samuel Fetters in the Geneva precinct. It should have read 123 instead of 423. While the same does noi I change the t >tal vote of either candidate, l it is made to show the correct number of : votes they received in the precincts named. For several years the good people of Willshire have been agitating the pike question and two years ago they began 1 building the first pike in Van Wert county. It begins at the Van Wert and Mer- ' cer county line on the south, runs through I the town on State and Walcott streets, and terminates at the Ohio and Indiana state line on the west. It is not com pletted, owing to the slowness of the man who contracted to furnish the material. Only about a quarter of a mile remains to be completed and this will be finished soon, , at other contractors have assumed the re- ’ sponsibility. The pike is constructed of I crushed stone, which was furnished at the , quarry for filty-five cents per square yard, ’ and the hauling was done tor twenty .five . cents per yard, making a total of eighty , cents per yard for the material, delivered and spread upon the pike bed according to specifications. This pike has • demonstrated to the people of that neigh- • borhood the numerous advantages to be derived from improved roads. It was 1 built on the two mile assessment plan and, • as might be expected, some of the farmers 1 along the line ardently objected to the im • provement. They now find the cost so t small and the advantages so great that . every farmer in the aeigh borhood wants a 1 pike built in front of Ms house,—Van J Wert Bulletin. .... ■*
