1 : Obituary. ’ Father Christian Augsberger was i boru in Liberty township, Tioga Co., i Pennsylvania, June 19, 1821, and departed this life in Adams county, Indiana, January 19, 1903, his age being 81 years and seven months. On the Ist’ day of December, 1859, he was united in marriage with Barbara Lichty. To this union were born sixteen children, nine sons and seven daughters. All of his children living were present at the obsequies save lone. Bro. Augsberger served in the ministry about 36 years. While lie was not faultless, yet we look upon his life as exemplary, of unusual deep Christian, which was a characteristic of his daily life, his warm hearted devotion to his family, and his deep and heartfelt concern for their spiritual welfare, tends to draw their affection and desire to follow him to the glory " world. His earnest life and triumph'gant death gives new inspiration to Z many to press towards the prize promised to all who who love and believe 'sin the name of our blessed Redeemer. were not few when his children came home to visit. Before separating, at his request, was sung this pretty song: Jesus, grant us all a blessing, Send it down, Lord, from above; Give us each a heart of prayer. Help us to rejoice in love. •.Farewell, brethren, farewell, sisters, Till we all shall meet above, etc. Brother Augsberger often admonished his family as to the certainty that death had claimed its own before interment of the bod v, therefore the burial was postponed, as stated in fast week’s items. On the 24th his oody was consigned to the tomb, with in expression of sweet peace resting ipon his countenance, to await the •all which will awake all that are in .heir graves, when corruption shall nit on incorruption and shall be made ike unto the glorious body of our Releemer. The funeral services were leld on the 22nd at the Defenseless denncnite church, conducted by levs. J. M. Shenk in German and doses Brenneman in Engish, residing t Elida, Ohio, assisted by Christian ituckey of near Linn Grove, text 2nd 'imothy 4-8 and Rev. 14-15. The “allowing sermonette was found after is death written in his "note book, itle, A good advice to everybody beause we are all human beings. Trust; see; whom: Trust God alone, le will lead you home to everlasting >y and happiness which is prepared >r the just. Signed, Christian Augserger, Dec. 20,1902. He leaves to illow a dear companion, seven sons, ve daughters, sixteen grandchildren ad an entire community of near and ear friends. precious one from us has gone, A voice we loved is stilled; place is vacant in our home Which never can be filled. od, in his wisdom, has recalled The boon his love had given; nd though the body moulders here, The soul is safe in Heaven.

JLL-DW SESSION This Is What the Senate Will Probably Come to This Week. Business Pushing Along to That Point Where Forenoons Will Be Inadequate. The Half-Cay Plan Has Given the Committees Relief from Night Work. Indianapolis, Feb. 2. —The senate resumed business at 10 this morning with a majority of the members present. The house did not meet until 2 this afternoon. The senate has been at work nearly every morning at 10 since the session began, but it has not held any afternoon sessions, like the house. It is probable that It will begin holding them this week, although Lt.Gov. Gilbert is a strong believer in spending a half day in session and the other half In the committees The plan has certainly worked admirably, as the senate could dispose of all Its bills within two or three days' notice. The afternoon session plan results In night committee meetings, which are always tiresome and never well attended. In the senate today the special order of business was Senator Matson's bill for the compulsory use of voting machines in counties having a city of 10,000 population or over. There will be an effort to pass a bill applying to the entire state. There were a .number of unimportant new bills in the senate. The house took the third reading of bills and a number were passed. There were some new bills, but since the "ripper” fight ended there has been nothing of so much general public interest. The legislature is about half gone and over 500 bills have been presented. Half of them have been killed, and over twenty-five have passed both the house and senate. Separately the two branches have probably passed seven-ty-five bills, but not more than twentyfive have been concurred in. WILL TRY IT AGAIN Corn School Will Be Made an Annual Affair. Lafayette, Ind., Feb. 2.—After a week of successful daily sessions the Indiana corn school and stockmen's convention at Purdue university closed.

Members of the general assembly will be asked to increase the appropriation for the maintenance of the agricultural course at Purdue and for the extension of the circular system of disseminating crop and soil information among the farmers. Robbed of His Remonstrance. Terre Haute, Ind., Feb. 2. —The Rev. W. B. Rlppetoe, who is the leader of the Anti-Saloon League in Otter Creek township, where an effort is being made to put out of existence eight saloons by means of the blanket remonstrance, to be presented to the county commissioners against granting licenses, was “held up” on the highway and his copy of the numerously signed document taken from him. F. W. Watts and a young man unknown to Mr. Rlppetoe stopped him on the road and pretended to want to sign the document, but once they had obtained possession of it they whipped up their horses and drove too fast for him to overtake them. He followed them to Terre Haute, where he located them in a saloon and then called on a policeman to arrest, them. The officer said he could not do it without a warrant, and the young mon ran out of a back door and got away. Child Fearfully Scalded. Lafayette, ind., Feb. 2. —Edna, the seven-year-oli daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Baker, was badly scalded.

M ffiWIE Sultan of Morocco Puts the Pretender and His Army Out of Business. Bu Hamara's Claim to InviUßssulllty Has Been Most Effectual-/ Exploded. Entire Following of the Pretender Either Slain or Captured Outside of Fez. Tangier, Feb. 2. —The sultan’s troops have utterly routed the forces of the Moorish pretender and captured bu Hamara himself. A special courier who arrived Sunday after making a record journey from Fez. brought tills news. He reports that at daybreak last Thursday the army of the sultan, commanded by the war minister, El Menebhi. attacked the pretender’s position ano inflicted a complete defeat on his rollowing, at the same time capturing Bu Hamara. Another runner who has arrived here from Fez confirms the news of the defeat of the rebels, but says that the report of the capture of the pretender Is Incorrect. Ho adds that It is uucertalu whether Bu Hamara's body was among the number slain. The sultan’s victory was absolute, almost the entire following of the pretender being either slain or captured. His camp, provision* and ammunition were taken and the artillery which was lost by the sultan's army In the battle of Dec. 23 was recaptured. Even If Bu Hamara escaped It is hopeleee for him to seek to retrieve bls defeat, as his claim that he is a saint is exploded. The details regarding the battle are meager, but it Is known the pretender’s camp was surprised and rushed at dawn. A circumstantial report Is current in this city that Bu Hamara was brought to Fez In a cage and exposed to public derision. It is impossible to aaeertain the truth of this rumor. The sultan's victory is attributed more to his bribery of the tribes than to military tactics. The bribed rebels suddenly abandoned the pretender's standard.
