She was rendered helpless by the fall and , .lay for two hours in that condition in the extremely cold weather, before discovered by her little daughter, Ruth, aged about seven years, who happened to be at home at the time, and who on account of the long continued absence ot her mother, became uneasy and began the search. Mr. Baumgartner, who works'in this city as deputy for Auditor H. S. Michaud; returns home every evening, and as the day was very stormy Thursday, Mrs. I Baumgartner thought to surprise her husband by having a greater part of the feeding and other chores incident to farm life done. It was necessary in doing this for her to climb to the ! mow in the barn, and in some way she i lost her footing and fell. Though she heard people passing from time to ' time, she was unable to move or make her calls for help heard until discovered by her daughter. The daughter was able to summon passing help and Dr. D. D. Clark was “summoned at once from this city. Mr. Baumgartner had already started for home when the word of the accident came, and arrived soon after she had been found. The sad message reached Decatur Thursday night that Mrs. Walter Johnson, a well known Decatur lady, had passed away at 8 oclock in the evening at the home of her mother-in-law, ’ Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson,, at Tocsin. Mrs. Johnson had been in failing health for several months from tuberculosis. Last December 20th she left for a visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs.' Josiah Reck, living near Tocsin. When she arrived at Tocsin, however, she became very 111 and was unable to go further than the home of her husband’s mother, Mrs”. Elizabeth Johnson, where she had, been since. While she grew better at times, she was unable to return to her home here. She gradually grew worae-nntil in the past few days her condition grew very alarming, and the news of her death Is not unexpected by her relatives and friends. Mrs. Johnson was about twenty-five years of age. She was .born and reared near Tocsin, and aboqt sevenyeara ago she was married to Walter Johnson, also of Tocsin, but who for the past eight years has-been employed in the harness department of Atz & Steele’s store. Since their marriage they have resided in this city, making their home at present on Third street. The husband and two children, Larmer, aged five, and Elizabeth, aged two years, survive, and were with her at her bedside'when she passed away. Mrs. Johnson was! a member of the Presbyterian church of this city and was known and beloved by all, to whom the news of her death will bring intense sorrow. . . 4 —o ■ MiM MILLER RECOVERING.

The tumors were small; and hard, and caused by salivary se-1 cretlons, which closed the blood vessels in the side of her cheek, causing a sort of congestion. It Is thought that she will soon fully recover. This is the second operation of a similar a ■ — o .... — — . WAS TAKEN TO GOSHEN. Insanity Inquest on Adams Redmond Will be Held at That Place. II ’i Adams Redmond of Elkhart, who became so violently insane Wednesday while visiting with his father-in-law, Cris Bieberish, at Preble, that it became necessary to bring him to this city for confinement in the county jail, was taken to Goshen Friday, be Ing accompanied by his father-in-law, Chris Bieberich, Sheriff Meyer and Dr. Grandstaff of Preble. Dr. Grandstaff was called tp treat him while here, and will be one of the important witnesses in the insanity inquest which will be held at Goshen. Application will be made for Redmond's admission to Longcliffe- asylum. ' KJ Alpheus Roop, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Roop, arrived home Thursday evening after three years’, service in Uncle Sam’s artillery. He is looking fine and says he feels even better. He served five months at Fort Shpridan, north of Chicagp, but for two and a half years has been located at Fort Riley, near Junction City, Kansas. While he enjoyed the soldier life as well as any one, he says that just now, at least, he feel sthat he has had enough and doep hot expect to return. He has not made up his mind what avocation he will follow, but will likely find something that suits him. Before enlisting in the army Alpheus worked at this office for some time and he may conclude to return tp the printing business. He served in various capacities in the army, the greater part of the time being in the veterinary department and has learned much that will aid him during life, and which he could turn tp advantage in the way of earning a living if necessary.
