Judge Fox, of Richmond, was here Saturday to hear further action in the Amacher vs. Johnson ditch case, which has been in court here for several years. Amacher won the case which was appealed to the supreme court, and affirmed. In the meantime the defendant brought suit for a new trial, because the records of the court reporter were not in shape to enable them to prepare a good brief. This case was tried before Judge O’Rourke at Fort Wayne, who granted a new trial. This morning attorneys for Amacher moved to have the opinion of the supreme court spread upon the record. Counsel for the defendant objected because of a new trial having been granted by Judge O'Rourke, and the defendant filed a copy of said judgment together with a petition to have this case redocketed and assigned for trial. Judge Fox havflng seen and inspected the papers, ordered the opinion of the supreme court spread on record as asked for and redockets said original cause for further action in this cause. Judge Fox then declined to act further in,this cause. — oRev. L. C. Hessert and M. Kirsch returned Friday evening from Fort Wayne, where they attended the first day of the Annual Zion’s classis of the northwest The meeting began Thursday night and Messrs. Hessert and Kirsch went as representatives of the local Reformed church. Yesterday reports of committees were read and the election of officers took place. Rev. Hessert was chosen to succeed himself as clerk of the classis and Mr. Kirsch was chosen to succeed himself as treasurer. The reports which were made evidenced the rapid progress of the local church in all its departments and future prospects very encouraging. The Decatur gentlemen came home to attend the funeral of the late Mr. Kruetzman and they will return to the summit city tomorrow morning to attend the remaining sessions of the body. It is certainly a well appreciated honor to Decatur that Messrs. Hessert and Kirsch have been retained as oflicers of the classis. It is evidence of their efficiency in the work. The annual meeting was held in the Fort Wayne St. Johns church. Rev. Kielsmeyer, of Fort Wayne, was chosen as president of the classis for the coming year. The advisory board of St. Marys township together with Trustee O. J. Suman held a meeting in the Erwin and Erwin law office Saturday p. m. at which time they decided to build a new and up to date school building in district number'two in that township. The old school house is in a dilapidated condition and the advisory board realizing the necessity of a new building have acted wisely in the matter. The new structure is to be of brick and will be modern in every respect. Work on its construction will begin as soon as bids are advertised for and received and it will be completed and ready for occupancy before time of convening the fall term. The advisory board was very enthusiastic over educational matters in their township, jand from the way they decided on the proposition of building they are deeply interested in the welfare of the young people in their little government. Blds will be adver-'' tised for at once and when the contract *is awarded work will begin it once. There will not be a frame school house in St. Marys township after the present one in district two is delegated to the rear. ,

Through the D. N. Epvin real esstate agency the Christ Elliott property located on First street and which is occupied by Henry Rodenbach, was Friday sold to John , Smitley of this city, the purchase price being six thousand dollars. Mr. Elliott who resides in Fort Wayne, has owned the building for two years. Mr. Smitley disposed of his one hundred and forty acre farm in St. Marys township to Richard Harris, of Paulding county, and the latter will become a resident of Adams county this fall. Mr. Harris possessed a farm of eighty-one acres in Pauldlng*tounty and sold the same yesterday at the peat sum of >llO per acre. The three transacteions in which $25,000 worth of property was involved were consummated within one-half day which bespeaks much for the ability of Mr. Erwin. Mr. Smitley will remain in Decatur and Adams county will get another good citizen, Mr. Harris. Mr. Rodenbach will continue to conduct a feed barn in the First street building, which he has operated so successfully for several years. X 1 o The M. E.

Washington, June 7.—Mrs. Taft has succeeded in saving a man up at Fairbanks, Alaska, from the gallows. The man in question bears the Russian appellation of Perovich. He was tried and convicted of murder. The trial was before James Wickersham, one of the Alaska federal judges. He made an application through counsel for executive clemency on the ground that there were extenuating circumstances. In the meantime Judge Wickersham had become the territorial delegate. He recommended clemency and Attorney General Wickersham advised it Supported by the recommendations of the two Wickershams, the case went up to the president. President Taft was not inclined to grant clemency, but he told Mrs. Taft about it. She advised her husband to be merciful. Delegate Wickersham has just been apprised that clemency will be granted, and that instead of hanging Perovich will be given imprisonment for life. Washington, June 7—President Taft declines to consider any other names for the governshlp of Porto Rico except that of former Representative James E. Watson of Indiana. A committee composed of Manuel V. Domenlcis and Francisco Quinones, representing the Republican central committee of Porto Rico, called on President Taft and received from him the information that he has extended until September 1 the time when Mr. Watson may give his final answer, and.

She was in bad shape. All run down In health; no appetite; digestion very poor; coulc no: sleep at night; felt tired and languid all day. She was pale and thin, her circulation was very poor, and the many different medicines she used seemed to do her more harm than good. She was dragging out her life this way, when Root Juice was brought here. She took seven bottles of the great medicine, and is (today) one of the most healthy ladies in town. For social reasons she objects to her name being published, but a day hardly passes that she does not advise some complaining friend to go to the Holthouse drug store and get some of the great soothing and healing tonic that did such winders for her.

Mrs. Richard Barrel was hostess at a Sunday ,dinner party in honor of Miss Edna Segura, of Angola. The afternoon was spent very pleasantly.
