WAS OPERATED UPON < Wednesday Morning—Fun- ‘ eral Services Will Be Held Sunday Mrs. William Beiberick. late ot Preble township, who Wednesday morning i underwent a serious operation for tha i removal of a fibroid tumor, passed 1 away Thursday at four o'clock p. m.,liw , ing just one day after the operation was performed. Mrs. Beiberick was taken ill about two years ago, but it 1 was not for many months that she ' was apprised of the nature of her ill- i ness. During the past two years she has suffered constantly and finding , that medicine did not aid her, she consented to having an operation performed which although successful from a surgical point of view did not relieve the afflicted woman and she died shortly afterward. Th e deceased was a most estimable woman. She has lived a consistent Christian life and while yet young she identified herself with the Preble Lutheran church. The sad death has caused many hearts of loving friends to be saddened. Mrs. Beiberick was forty-seven years o’ age and is survived by a husband, two children, Emma and Fred, two sisters, Mrs. C. Bleeke and Mrs. Jacob Neff,of Flatrock, and one brother, Fred Selking. The funeral cortege left the home Sunday afternoon at one o’clock arriving at Preble Lutheran church where the services were held. Interment was made in the church cemetery. o MAY BE CAUGHT Suspicion Points to Town Loafers Who May Yet Be Punished Linn Grove, June s.—(Special to Daily Democrat) —The stores ot Samuel Opliger and Hoffman & Gottschalk at this place were burglarized some time during Wednesday night. At the Oplinger store fifty cents and three valuable gold watches were secured. At the Hoffman & Gottschalk establishment they succeeded in getting away with twenty-five In cash, also a collection of rare and ancient coins belonging to Peter Hoffman and which were highly prized and a quantity of postage stamps were taken. The thieves also made an unsuccessful attempt to gain an entrance to the Bowen & Company store. It is the general belief here that the work was that of home talent, several parties too low in the scale of humanity to work, but who must have cash to buy drinks and it is probable that some day, not very distant, the mystery may be cleared and the culprits receive their due and just punishment. i ■■■■■ o - ■— ■ OBJECTIONS MADE Officers Will Punish Offenders Except on Fourth of July Boys, be “keerful” the marshal will get you if you don’t quit shootin’ those firecrackers. Mayor France has issued his order and has authorized us to announce that the celebration of independence day must not begin until the proper time. On July 4th you fiz and shoot crackers, skyrockets and other implements of noise within reason to your heart’s content, but prior to that time you will be liable to arrest if you do so. This is not a joke by any means, as you will find out if you persist. A number of complaints have been made and a very serious accident was caused last evening when a horse became frightened and ran away, and the lady driver reported the matter to the police. It’s all right to be . patriotic, but not so violently so that you inconvenience every one in the neighborhood. Cut it out. ——o — Ed H. I-yon left for Dayton, Ohio, this afternoon on a business trip. J. Fred Hoene et al have sold to Addison N. Houk a part of section five in Root township for SI,OOO. Mr. , Hoene lives in King county, Washing- | ton. John M.

GOOD SHOWING HERE ‘ Total is Less Than $12,000 ’ —Collector Starts to Work About July Ist County Treasurer John F. Lachot and his office assistants are now busy < making out lists of the delinquent ! i taxpayers of the county. At the t same time, they are sending out no- 1 tices to each delinquent to call and ’ settle. The work of making these * I lists will take several days. As soon as they are completed, it is the pur- ] pose of the treasurer, to send out a i collector to make the necessary de- 1 mand for payment, as required by law i The statute provides that failure to : pay this man, together with a 50c de- 1 mand fee, shall be followed by a levy i and sale of any property the delinquent may have, in satisfaction. As- ■ ter that It is the duty ot the prosecuting atorney to take the matter in charge, for which he receives ten per I cent of the collection, and a ten dollar fee in each case prosecuted successfully. The collector, J. N. Fristoe, will begin his real collecting duties with blood in. his eye, about July Ist. The delinquent taxes here, old and new, amounts to $11,559.62, a splendid showing as in Jay county the delinquencies are $44,000 and In Wells county $27,000. The action, of the treasurer is in the carrying out of the instructions of the state board of tax commissioners contained in a circular letter received last week. The state board of tax commissioners is insisting that county treasurers levy on personal property, and i also garnishee wages in their efforts to make collections wherever that course is necessary. This course Is provided for and authorized by the law and the treasurer has no other course to pursue, if it insisted on by the higher authorities. o STORY WITHOUT FOUNDATION. H. R. Daniel Denies Recent Publication. We are in receipt of a telegram ; from Harry R. Daniel, of the Chicago . Inter-Ocean asking that we announce that the report in various papers that t, he was to accept a position as Washl ington correspondent and later be- . come associate editor of the Inter- . Ocean, is not true, and the story ab- - solutely without any foundation. How > such a story became circulated is not 5 known. t o - ONCE LIVED HERE r i 1 Expects to Visit the Moon 3 and Stars After His Life is Over J Dr. Hudson, pastor of the Park Place M. E. church at Anderson, and a former pastor of the M. E. church here, in a sermon last Sunday to his congregation, set out some strange doctrines. Among other things thie doctor said that an earthquake would destroy the earth. He set no time 1 for the end of the world, but he said ’ it would come some time, as there > is an end to all things. Dr. Hudson . mentioned that he once took New r Year’s dinner with a man 104 years t old. and he looked upon him with r great reverence, but he said that he, too, expected to live 109 years yet, , but not in this country—to even 500 years of age—and that he would be able to say that he was 1,000 years . old, arid evpn 1,090,000. When he ! went to the other country he said he expected to visit the moon and see what was on the other side of it — the side never turned toward the earth. He said that with God’s permission he was going to visit the big star, the Polar star, and all the other stars, and se© what was there. He said he believed he would be permitted to do this in the next world when destroyed and witness the changes in all the other planets. He said he would be able to see and know all that is going on on earth from his new home. o — Frank Webb, of South Bend, who ; participated in the killing of Sheriff | Frank Oglesby, at Winamac last October, when the officer attempted to ; arrest Webb and a companion for t train robbery, *has been found guilty s of murder in the second degree and r his punishment has been fixed at life j imprisonment. t Mr. and Mrs. Harry Deam who have r been in Glendale, Ohio to attend the a commnecement exercises at Glendale v academy returned home this morning v accompanied by their daughter, Miss a Mary, who has been attending school c there.—Bluffton News. f

THE THIMBLE CLUB Women’s Home Missionary Society Entertained by Mrs. Wm. Beachler At the U. B. parsonage last Thursday ' occurred the marriage of Mr. Curtis !

In a few days Mr. and Mrs. Barkley will be in their new home at Continental, where they will gladly 1 welcome their hosts of Hoosier ad- i mirers. I The Ladies’ Aid society of the I Emanuel Lutheran church met at the 1 home of Rev. and Mrs. G. Bauer, Wednesday afternoon.

It has ben officially announced right from headquarters that Sears, Roebuck i & Co., the Chicago mail order house, has gone entirely out of the drug business, handling nothing in the line which was for years one of their strong cards. In a recent statement the manager said: “Since the passage f of the national food and drug law our j experience has convinced us that in 5 a diversified business like ours, we cannot afford to devote to it the time s 3 and attention necessary to make the drug business a success. We have too I many outlets for our surplus energy ; and capital through wide open chanl nels to make the handling of drugs, ; patent medicines, etc., profitable.” ' o ZION LUTHERAN CHURCH. All members and friends of our congregation will please take note of the fact that there will be no divine service at our church Sunday afternoon on account of a funeral at Preble. Mrs. Wm. Bieberick, on whom an operation was performed on Wednesday, fell asleep in Jesus the day after. The funeral cortege will leave the house of mourning at 1 o’clock p. m.. sun time. After a funeral service, which will be held at the Preble Lutheran church at about 2 o’clock, the interment will take place in St. Paul's cemetery. J. H. Klausing, Pastor. o David E Brnmbtugb, of Pierceton, who returned Monday evening from California, with his wife, was at once arrested on a grand jury indictment charging him with having embezzled $30.91 of funds of the Lincoln National Life Insurance company, of Fort Wayne, while acting as its agent Brumbaugh gave bond in the sum of $590. A man by the name of Libbey, living at Linn Grove, had a close call from death yesterday at the home of J. P. Stiner, living southeast of the city on rural route No. 6. Mr. Stiner is hav- i ing a new bam built and tearing down the old one. Mr. Libbey was on the , roof of the old barn when he slipped ! and fell to the ground, breaking his 1 wrist, and bruising his body in a se- 1 ver© manner. He was unconscious for 1 an hour and is now in a very serious t condition. Internal injuries are t feared.—Bluffton Banner. f
