SOME COMPLICATIONS Bondsmen Threatened Mose J and the Judge Gives Them ‘ a Sharp Talk. t < Indianapolis, Ind., January 3.—The • troubles of Moses J. Krohn, with the * federal court were responsible for Tom ( O'Brien and Tom Bowser, professional 1 bondsmen, and Daniel Brown. Jr., at- ! torney, appearing before Judge A B. 1 Anderson, of the federal court, and 1 1 be? g talked to in a Very direct man- ( ner. , Judge Anderson informed them that 1 he would not allow any polic e court 1 methods applied to prisoners who were under the care of the federal court, , and he asked O’Brien if he realized , I that he could be sent to jail if it were shown that certain charges of f timidation that had been been made by Krohn were shown to be true. Krohn had been arrested a number of months ago on the charge of impersonating a government officer in this city with intent to defraud. He had been released on bond; had been indicted and had failed to appear for arraignment. His bond had been declared forfeited, but later he was apprehended in Freeport, 111;, and Judg e K. M. Landts, who was sitting on the federal bench in this city at that time, said the forfeiture would be set aiide if the government were Ybimbursed for

the expense ■of apprehending- Hrohn. and bringing him to that city. When Krohn appeared before Judge Anderson. ’Monday afternoon, on a plea of guilty, lie was questioned ciosly and said that he had not intended to defraud any one; that he had not represented himself as a government officer when he haiTborrowed the money, but that he had said some time previously that he was a government officer in a boastful way. Witnesses bore out his statement, and then Judge Anderson suddenly brought up the-matter of Krohn, having failed to appear while out on bond. Krohn said that bond had been furnished by Tom Bowser a::d Tom O'Brien, of this city, and then remarked that he had given to them five notes of $25 each to pay for the costs-in apprehending him and bringing him back.

He said also that threats had been made that he would be sort to the penitentiary if he did not give these notes to the men. By order of Judge Anderson, O'Brien Bowser and Dan Brown, Jr., whom Krohn had said called upom-at the county jail, appeared I'j court. Judge Anderson asked O'Brien what had become of the notes, and he said he had sent them to a bank in Freeport, 111. Krohn was then asked why he had given the notes, and said that O’Brien had told him that his offense in “jumping his bond" was a serious one, and that he could be sent to the penitentiary for it, but. that if the notes were given by him he would be dealt with more leniently. He said that he therefore gav e the notes. O’Brien arose and said that he had not made any threats, but had asked Krohn what he was going to do about paying the cost of bringing him to this city, and Krohn had volunteered to give the notes. Brown said that his only connection with the case was that he had been called in by Bowser to call on Krohn and fix up an order on the trustee who has charge of Krohn's funds. Bowser disclaimed all knowledge of any threats and said that he did not even know that the notes had been sent to Freeport. It was after Krohn had made his statement in court that the judge made his allusions to the possibilities of jail, and he also said that it was pe- j cuiiar that the. notes had been sent to ' Freeport Monday afternoon, .at about the time it had developed in courfthat

the notes had been given. He inquired why the notes had been sent at that time, and O’Brien said it was so they would arrive by January 2, at about the time that the monthly remittance of SSO for Kroha came due. Krohn receives a monthly remittance from the estate of his father. The court told O’Brie 1 .-! that he must at once telegraph to Freeport and have the notes and order returned, and that they must be brought to him at once on their arrival. He said that if the notes were not delivered into th e federal court in accordance with his orders that he would take further action and he reminded the men that they had been subpoenaed and could be called on to appear in court at any time. The costs, it is said, have not yet been taxed, and nothig has been paid on them to the court. Krohn was told to go and to appear In court a week from Saturday or at any time before that that the court might direct. The Misses Josephine Schumacher and Celestla Mylott returned home Saturday afternoon from Fort Wayne, where they were visiting relatives and they report a fine time.

OBITUARY. Ann Ada Te ple, daughter of William and Rosetta Teeple was born Ja uary 19, 1892, in St Marys township. died December 11. 1907, aged 15 years, 10 months and 22 days. From childhood she manifested a spirit of loving obedience to her parents and delighted in the association of the home. Her older sister and she were inseparable companions. For her mother she ever wished to do the thi gs that would please. Her brothers were the pride of her life. She graduated from the eighth grade last year and had entered upon her , high school course, looking eagerly forward to the time w-hen she might j take her place among the teachers ! of the county. On Friday, December 1 6 she took ill and did not go to school as usual, but nothing serious was apprehended. She did not take to her bed until Saturday afternoon, j The family thought she had a severe cold, but during Saturday night, the symptoms became acute. Sunday | morning Dr. Christy was called, reaching her bedside at five o’clock. He at once pronounced the disease lary gitis, an acute inflamation of the larynx. This condition continued for three days, extending to the bronchial tubes and finally resulting in her death. Reared in a .Christian home, she knew and loved to do the right. When the last hour had come she called her little brother to her side and said “I want you to be a. good boy, Dan.” Her last words to her father were “I want to go to heaven” and so she has gone out into the unknown,where God alone can guide.

She was but a child as yet, stirred by the womanhood. Sorrow had not made her heart heavy, life was- still pure and fresh as God gives it, but once to each of us. Not for her. were the pangs and. heartaches of this old world. Her. life has known only the love and protecting care of a home. She leaves to mourn her departure a father, "mother," four brothers, one sister and Wr aged grandparents. ———o DEMURERS ARGUED In Several Cases —Demurer Argued in Frank Barthel’s Case.

1 The Laisure damage suit for alien--1 ating Mirl Leisure’s wife’s affections, ' set for Monday,' has been continued t until the next term. * The Keller Incubator factory Is at ’ present a very busy place and will be from now on until the middle of the coming summer. The new machinery ’ Is arriving daily and is being set in ' place as rapidly as possible and will I 1 be put into running order as soon as all of the same arrives. The manufacture of these famous incubators will then proceed and the many out- ' standing orders filled promptly. S. W. Peterson informed us again today that he was in the market to i purchase hay. It is his i tention to put; his machinery in operaion just as soon as possible, but before he does this he desires to buy in a large supply so as to keep the men busy. Any one having hay they care to dispose , of should call on Mr. Peterson. The finishing touches on painting the Christian church are being put on today by Charles Railing and force of men, and this place of worship now looks a hundred per c nt better. The church h s been painted a drab color.

Henry Schieferstine, of near Monmouth, is confined to his home and bed suffering from a very severe attack of erysipelas and is not expected to live. Mr. Schieferstine is one of the best known residents of Root township and his many friends will be grieved to learn of his serious illness. • Owing to the bad condition of the I weather, Decatur was visited by a very small crowd today, and the various merchants all had a kick coming as to the amount of business transacted. This is the first Saturday in a long time that Decatur was not crowded. However, no one is to blame but the weather man. The glove factory opened Thursday morning at the usual hour, after permitting the employes thereof to enjoy a ten days’ vacation. The factory is behind in a number of orders and will from this time on be compelled to rush matters to the limit The entire force reported on the opening day and everything is running along smoothly. A new show will be introduced this evening entitled the “Train Wreckers” at the Pictorium, that is one of the most thrilling films ever shown in Decatur, The film is one of Edison’s latest and will more than please those who see it. Mr. Stonebumer is making every effort to put on good shows and is deserving of your support. Don't fail to see this show as It Is a dandy.
