IS LAID TO REST The Remains of Douglas D. Mills Were Interred in Beavers Lot FUNERAL TODAY From the Antioch Church— I Rev. E. L. Jones, of Monroe, Officiated A large number of th e friends and relatives of the late Douglas D. Mills attended the funeral services this morning held from the Antioch church and thus paid their last respects to the departed young man. The death of this young man Is a reiteration of the fact that sorrows do not come singly. His aged grandmother with whom he lived since babyhood preceded him to the other shore but a few weeks ago. A home that was so happy but a few fleeting months ago, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Samuel D. Beavers and their beloved grandson, Douglas Mills, is broken up, and an atitude of sorrow characterized every person who chanced to visit the Beavers home during the course of the past few days. The fact that both the grandmother and grandson were held in the very highest esteem cf all who knew them only adds to th poignancy of the sorrow, which prevails in the neighborhood. The funeral cortege left the Beavers home this morning for the Antioch church at 9:00 o’clock and services, in charge of Rev. E. L. Jones, of Monroe, began at 10:00 o’clock. Th e services were very impressive and words of consolation from the able minister found way to the hearts of his every auditor. The remains were laid to rest in the Beavers family lot. o — RESOLUTION ON DEATH OF JOHN ANDERSON. Whereas, it has pleased the Almighty God to remove from us our esteemed friend. John Anderson, in the prime of his useful manhood; And whereas, by his death this county has lost a worthy citizen, this association a faithful member and his family a kind and loving husband and father; Therefore, be it resolved, that in the death of John Anderson we recognize the fact that the m *^ st °f we are in death, and that the Ruler of destinies is no respecter of persons and to whose command we bow in humble submission; t Be it further resolved that in the life of our departed friend there was much worthy of our emmulation, kindness of heart, nobleness of purpose and strong of convictions, and in the hearts of all who knew him he has left a lasting memory of affjetion Be it further resolved that we extend our heartfelt sympathy t’ those p who mourn the loss of father whose j life in the home circle was s cease- 1 less benediction.

The grade work on the interurban extension of the interurban lin e south is progressing in a manner very satisfactory to those in charge. The fill at Barnum’s run, which is considered one-third of the entire job is nearly complete and the work from now on will show good progress. Twenty-five teams were at work today the grade having advanced to the Trout farm. Within thirty days the work between here and Monro e should be complete and October Ist should find the entire grade ready. In the meantime the laying of the rails will begin as soon as the franchise question in this city is adjusted and will be flushed almost as soon a s the grading, as the work does not require near the time. A few weeks may be necessary to ballast, but the extension from the present outlook should be doing business by November Ist at the farthest. Miss Madge Hawkins returned to her home at Willshire, Ohio, this noon after spending a short time in the city the guest of friends.
