OCCURS ON SATURDAY And This Feature is Objectionable to Business Men of the City The usual custom of closing the stores will, in all probability, not be observed next Saturday as on former Decoration days. The fact that this occasion happens on Saturday is a feature that the business men do not favor as the farmers, who would leave their fields to come to town to trade would be sadly disappointed if the stores would all be closed. There is scarcely a merchant, however, who would not close if the occasion would be observed on any other day than Saturday and no one has refused to close the doors of their business place for any other reason than the fact that their customers may be inconvenienced. However, it is probable that some of the stores will close between the hours of two and five o’clock, although nothing definite has as yet been decided upon. Should the stores not close, the proprietors and clerks will as best they can assist in the memorial services. Fort Wayne breweries are now said to be experimenting with the manufacture of a “temperance beer,” in response to a demand from the trade for a non-alcoholic drink resembling the real article. The new beverage contains less than one-half of one per cent of alcohol and the government permits its sale without the necessity of paying a license. Stamp Agent Barton, of the Fort Wayne revenue office, says that the business of his office shows a larger sale of beer stamps but a smaller quantity of whiskey stamps than a year ago. The body of Baya-d Gray, who died Sunday evening, was taken to Union City Tuesday morning, leaving the Elks club rooms, where the body lari in state Monday evening, about 7:20 , o’clock. After arrival ft Union City , the body lay in state at the Presbyterian church until the hour of services. one o’clock. A large number of friends and brother Elks viewed the body Monday evening at the club rooms.—Portland Commercial-Review. John Roop has returned to Pleasant Mills after making a short visJlt here with friends.

Y., writes: • “If I had known of Peruna years ago I should have been saved much suffering. Under carelessness and exposure in my younger years my system got into a very bad condition before I was aware of it. “My doctor thought that I had catarrh or the bladder and duly prescribed for me, but nothing did me any good. “My friends advised me to try Peruna, for which I I am very thankful, as it has cured me in two months, and I am in perfect health. ” Catarrh of the Head and Stomach. Mr. Frank Richter, of 309 East 2nd dt., Winona, Minn., writes: “I take pleasure in recommending Peruna for catarrh of the stomach. Peruna cured me, and I know it will cure any one else who suffers from this disease. My catarrh was principally located in my head and stomach. I tried many remedies without success. I read of Peruna in the papers, and live bottles cured me.”

It is one of the best contracts in the summit city, as they use from twenty to fifty gallons per day, I ’ almost exclusively brick cream. The a first trial shipment was made Satur- t day and 'word has been received that the cream is the best they ever used and that the contract is “clinched." ( This order was secured on quality alone, as White's announced that they ’ wished to handle the best cream they '' could find in Indiana and they have j certainly got it. The Conter company has also secured several other nice ’ orders from Fort Wayne and many ‘ new’ customers from all over this sec- ■ tion of the country, this fact being j due to the fact that they are market- i ing the finest cream ever turned out in northeastern Indiana. The coming season looks very bright for this concern. o— The I. O. O. F. of Avilla, will hoid memorial services Sunday, May 31. The address will be delivered by Hon. J. M. Robinson, of Fort W’ayne, and the Kendallville band will furnish the music. The Kendallville, Garrett and Albion lodges have been invited. Two hundred visiting Odd Fellows are expected to be in attendance. After a three weeks’ battle with the board of county commissioners at Crown Point, the remonstrators who filed petitions against the granting of licenses to 100 saloons in Gary, were successful last Wednesday. The county commissioners knocked out the saloons, but tne question will be taken to the supreme court The anti-sa-loon league will carry the fight into Hammond, where there are over 200 saloons, and is confident of knocking them out. IS A BITTER FIGHT I With Victory Perched Upon the Banners of the Antis —Have Four Saloons Geneva, Ind., May 27.—(Special to the Daily Democrat) —That the Geneva people expect to completely wipe out the saloon element in that enterprising town is conclusively proven by the fact that a large number of the influential citizens are assisting in securing names on the remonstrance that is at present being circulated. Yesterday morning Rev. King, of the M. E. church, Rev, Myers of the U. B. church. Rev. Brown of the Ceylon church and Messrs. O. O. and Andrew’ Juday, started the movement and one day’s work clearly demonstrated the fact that by a large majority the remonstrance would carry. Two hundred and seventy-six names of voters are required for a majority and authorative information is to the effect that enough names have already been secured to make this majority. How> ever the antis expect to work on until Friday so as to secure an overwhelming majority. There are four saloons here and Geneva people expect to wipe them from existence forever. It is a heated fight with victory perched upon the antis banners. The movement is causing much excitement. Rev. Fault, an ardent worker in behalf of the antis will begin tonight giving a series of illustrated lectures to assist in creating a sentiment in favor of the antis and tomorrow night he will show stereopticon views on i the subject of "Ten Nights in the Bar ■ Room” in modern times. The lectures , are all to be given on the public street and it is expected that a large crowd < will hear them. Never before has such a determined effort been made against the Geneva saloons, and next . Friday, when the remonstrators file their remonstrance, with the County . audior, they expect to show the 1 most remarkable and overwhelming defeat ever administered to the saloon people. f —: * Mother Gray’s Sweet Powders for- - Children. i Successfully used by Mother Gray, ’ nurse in the Children’s Home in New j York, Cure Feverishness, Bad Stom j ach, Teething Disorders, move and regulate the Bowels and Destroy Worms.
