WILL NOT SEND DELEGATES To the Muncie Meeting Tomorrow, Called to Oppose the New •* ederation. At tb meeting of the Historical Club of Daectur Tuesday even, it was unanimously decided not to send a delegate to the club meeting to be held at Muncie Thursday. So far as local clubwomen are concerned they seem to be in hearty accord with the combination which makes both the Historical and Shakespeare clubs of this city, members of the same State and natioanl organizations. The Muncie women seem to be the only ones strongly opposed to this new movement and they will very likely have to submit to the majority. A message from that city to the Indianapolis News says: MUNCIE, Ind., Nov. 20. —When the Indiana State Federation of Woman’s Clubs (which its rivals declare does not exist) meets here in adjourned State convention, Thursday, the delegates do not intend to reply to criticisms that have been heaped on them by the new Indiana Federation of Clubs, but intend, instead, to practice the scriptural injunction, to “bless them that despitefully use you.” At least that is what the local delegates say.

The president of the so-called Indiana Federation of Clubs has publicly called on the woman’s clubs of the State to ignore the Muncie convention but the women who say the old federation is Still in existence are not alarmed by this. If there is going to be any ignoring business going on, they propose to participate, they say, and will, for their part, ignore the; Indiana Federation of Clubs, which they regard as an illegitimate organization, and will treat with the Indiana Union of Literary Clubs. _o— Will build addition to barn ; ——— And Engage Extensively in the Horse Sale Business—New Firm Is a Strong One. Ex-Auditor Abe Boch last evening concluded negotiations whereby he became the owner of a half interest in J. M. Rice’s boarding and sale stables. This partnership means much for Decatur, as the concern has already decided to erect a large brick addition and work on this building will begin immediately. The Decatur Horse Sale Company has already been organized and they will conduct horse sales ' which will bring many people regularly to our city. Mr. Boch is a thorough business man and has been interested in this kind of work practically all his life.' His large acquaintance and popularity means an enormous business for the new firm and this trade will be held by courteous and fair treatment. Mr. Rice has also had many years of experience and deserves the success that is sure to come to this new and enterprising concern. Mr.. Boch will hold a sale of personal property at his farm east of town soon and will dispose of his stock and machinery.; He will, however, continue to live on his farm, though he will devote his time principally to his new business in this city. . •
