V H I II Judson W. Teeple, mayor-elect, Who assumes nis place as executive officer of Decatur, January Ist, is busyjuat now, considering applications and > making up his mind as to whom be will select for the various places which come under him. He will appoint .a fire chief, city engineer, marshal, street commissioner and secretary of the board of health. The other p'aces of appointment are fi’led by the council and the mayors appointments must be approved by the council. So far as can be learned at tfcns time, there will be no frlctim | between the officials, it being the Idea to give the city the beet service pns stble all around. Within a few days Mr. Teeple will likely announce his appointments. It is possible that in

one or two instances ho change will be made for \tne present, though this has not been definitely decided. The most Important places are marshal and stret commissioner. It is said that for marshal there are quite a number of applicants, and while the mayor has made no official state meat, it is the general opinion that this place will go to Frank Peterson, a well known young man, whose name has ben--connected with the place since the election. Within a short time the list of appointments will be given out officially by the mayor-elect who stated this morning that he would do his best to make such nominations as be satisfactory to the greater number of people and will i appoint the men who he believes thb

or Decatur. j The Homiß Mission Bally Day services conducted at the United Brethren church last evening by the Sunday school, were very interesting and attended by a large audience In spite of the rainy and disagreeable weather. J. J. tfoughty, the superintendent of the Sunday school, could not be present on account of sickness, and In his absence, Howard Wlsehaupt had charge of the program. Very excellent papers on home missions, were prepared and read by Mrs. Philip Meflfls and Mrs. John Hill, two of the active mission workers of the church, and the Bev. I. Imler gave A most instructive map talk, comparing the missions of the United States with those of foreign countries. The children of the Sunday school lent their aid in making the services delightful and some very beautiful recitations and drills were given by those, who though young in the work, are being trained to appreciate this very important department of the church. The “Dons,” a newly or-j ganized boys’ quartet, including Howard Wlsehaupt, Bruce Patterson, Don Butke and! Sherman Beery, rendered some very good music during the service, and the choir also met the occasion with some excellent special music. At the close of the service, an offering to be used in the home mission work, was taken. — o— ——■ Many from this city attended the funeral ot the late Martin Buuck, which was held Monday morning at 10 o’clock from the Freldheim Lutheran church, the Bev. Preuss officiating. At> stated last week, his death occurred Friday morning at Albert Lea, Minn,, where he and his family had been making theitr home for two years. Mr. Buuck had been sick for two weeks with typhoid fever, and was thought to be much better when his death occurred Friday morning, coming as a shocking surprise to his Adams county relatives, who be lieved him to be recovering. His father, Ernest Buuck, one of the well known farmers of near Freldheim, who had gone there during his illness, was with him at the time of his death. The father with the bereaved widow, accompanied the remains to the old home here, arriving Saturday evening about four o’clock over the interurban. The body was met at Nine Mile by a cousin of the deceased, M. Kirsch and A. G. Sellemeyer of this city, with other friends and relatives, and coming back as far as Stop 13, the body was taken across by carriage to the parental home at Freldheim. The deceased was born and reared in this county and had not yet reached middle age, when claimed by death, being thirty-four years of age. When quite a young num be came to this city and learned the blacksmith trade, working witn Gus Schlegel. He later moved to Wesley, lowa, and then to Albert Lea, Minnesota, where he opened a smith of his own, and was engaged in a prosperous business. Besides his parents he leaves a wife and one child, a little girl, also several brothers and sisters residing in this county. and Fort Wayne. The widow left Tuesday for her home at Albert tea, but her future course is still (undecided. _..——.- o After twelve years faithful and efficient pervice as superintendent ot the Methodist Sunday school in this city, John W, Vail has announced his Resignation as superintendent, this announqement being received with much sorrow by the congregation, at the dose of the Sunday school Sunday mroning. Mr. Vail has extensive business interests in St. Louis and Cardwell, Ma, and is forced to be away so much of the time, that he felt that he should resign and give the office over to one who makes this city his home permanently and is able to be present at all the services. C L. Walters who has served aS assistant superintendent for some time, will act in Mr. Vail’s place until the election of the new <O»rs at the first of the year. It is not often that one holds an office of this kind for •so many years as has Mr. Vail, and thia very length of his service shows the esteem in which he has been held in this capacity.

Invitations have by thirty-five or forty gentlemen of this city, for a stag dinner to be given on Thanksgiving evening from eight to eleven o'clock by Mr. d D. Murray at the Hotel Murray. The event promises to be a very delightful one and the men are looking forward to the evening with glad anticipation. An orchestra of special merit will be | a feature and tihe program will be an interesting o*e, we surmise. Miss Dorothy Habgan of No. 54 Madison avenue, gave a farewell party Friday evening in honor of Mrs. Effie Brdkaw-Jphnson who leave Detroit within a few days for her home at \ Decatur, Indiana.

An eight-mile hack drive to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Arnold i west of the cfty where good cheer, genial conversation and a royal chicken dinner with an equally good supper awaited them, was enjoyed Sunday by a company of Decatur ladies, Including the following: Mrs. M- Fullenkamp, Mrs. Frank Gas«>, Misses Tillie pnd Lollie Meibers, Mayme and Emma Terveer, Ode and Letta Fullenkamp and Amelia Weber. Though the home ride was not quite so pleasant on account of the rain, there was not enough mist to dim the memory of the good time which ,wll ever live with them as one of the best of their lives. Mr. and Mrs. D. V. Steel and fam' Uy entertalaed at a family dinner party Sunday, the guests being Mr. and Mrs. Charles Barnhart of west of the city, and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Steele and daughter, Elizabeth.

Jesse Smitl}, who recently purchas* ed the Springer property on Eleventh street, has been remodeling it and when finished, it will present the appearance of an entirely new home, first class and up to date in all respects. The work on the building is nearly completed arid Mr. Smith and family will take up their residence there in a short time. Friends of Adam Richey the Craigvill emerchant, who will apply for a liquor license in Lancaster township at the next session of the county commissioners, are at a loss as to his whereabouts. Adam left Crtilgvilie a few days ago and when asked he was going the friends claim he refused to tell. It is again rumored that he went to Ohio for a Visit and upon his return wfll hav« wife. He has made the trip several times, but each time has returned along against the predictions of the Craigvllle citizens—Bluffton Banner. Ernest Steele, an expert machinist formerly in the employ of the Coppock Motor Car Company and of A. Man Camp, bf this city; but who for several months has been in the employ of the automobile company at Auburn, spent Sunday with his family here. He is contemplating moving his family .to that place and will return Thursday, to this city for the purpose of packing his household goods, as he wUI have a two days’ vacation at that time on account of Thanksgiving bn Thursday, and the local option election which takes place there on Friday. i • ' 0 John F. Lachot, who retires from the office of county treasurer on De cember 31st, after four years ot splen did service, has accepted a position with the Brooks Oil company oi Cleveland, Ohio, for which company he worked for twelve years, prior to hts election to the office of treasurer. He recently contracted to look after the sales in the same territory, which he formerly covered, this section ot Indiana, and will succeed H. P. Ray, of Berne, who took the place four years ago. This is certainly a good recommendation for Mr. Lachot and the fact that he will Succeed is assured. Mr. Ray has been offered )iiß choice of other good territory, brit has not decided whether or not he will remain with the company. During his tom tn office Mr. Lachot has proven an efficient and worthy public man. been courteous at all titties many friends have but in gfraaSra their admiration for him. they all wish him the very best fortune for the future years. ’ . —o— ———— Mrs. Marvin Mygrant left this morning for Auburn, where she will Join her husband in making that plac b their future home.

He is one of the hardest Democratic workers in Chicago and when any of the boys want a favor or there is a job to be handed out the usual question is “what does Hennessey say?” He is a little fellow full of ginger but a whole circus politically. He says that good goods always come In small packages.—Huntington News-Demo-• crat.
