Saturday evening at eight o’clock at his home in Preble township, Fred Biehold departed this life, after suffering fpr four years with a complication of diseases, most of these years being confined to his bed. He was sixty years old and a ‘ pioneer resident of that township, and was respected by all who knew 1 him. The funeral services were held today at 2:30 o’clock at the' Magley German Reform church, of • which he was a member. Rev. Snyder conducted the services and I interment was made in the Magley i cemetery. He leaves a widow and several children to mourn their loss. After today Agent A. M. Dewesse will be with us no longer, having resigned the agency here and accepted a more lucrative one at Marion, Ohio, where he assumes the agency, and will act as yard master as well. Since being with us Mr. Dewesse has made a number of friends, and has proved to be a very valuable citizen. He expects to move his family soon as he can secure quarters for them, and to make that his future home. Mr. Dewesse’s place will be filled by O. H. Treadway, of Wilders, Ind. who arrived this morning and at once started in on his new duties. Mr. Treadway comes with a fine reputation and is an old and expe rienced man. Mr. Treadway will move his family here at once. Rowland & Clifford’s, those hustling young Chicago producers, owners and managers of the various “Over the Niagara Falls,” companies, and‘ The Game Keeper,” will present Thos. J. Smith, the sterling singing comedian, and an excellent company in the last named piece at Bosse's opera house Thursday, Sept. 29th. “The Gamekeeper” is a clean, bright Irish play, filled with the pathos and wit with which the Irish race is so happily endowed. Mr. Smith is a handsome young son of the Emerald Isle, his acting is quiet and easy and natural, he sings delightfully many beautiful songs and the Irish love ballads as rendered by Mr. Smith are a source of much pleasure. Rowland & Clifford have surrounded their star with an excellent company, each and every member especially engaged for the character portrayed.

COURT NEWS Loretta Shaw, through her attorneys Hooper & Lenhart, has filed suit for divorce from her husband, Oscar Shaw, to whom she was married August 27, 1898 They lived together until yesterday, when the complaint says Oscar began taking the furniture out of the house, thus leaving her without any home or shelter, and throwing her upon a cold and reentless world.
