About three years ago the little one suffered an attack of typhoid fever, from which developed Bright’s disease and diabetes, from which she never recov 4 ered.

Burke, son of Mr. and Mr. and Mrs. John Burk, of this city, has been granted license to preach, the grant being reported Wednesday at the closing session of the Fort Wayne district of the north Indiana Methodist Episcopal conference, conducted for thrpe days at the Simpson M. E. church at Fort Wayne. -The Rev. C. U. Wade, superintendent of this district, presided Two other young mem Franklin Hickman and Charles A. Byrt of Fort Wayne were also licensed to preach. Mr. Burke is known to all of this city as a most exemplary young man, and this spring will graduate from the Decatur high school, after which he will enter college to complete his studies for the ministry. He has been an active member In all departments of the local Methodist church and knowing his life mission so early In life, has laid a broad and deep foundation therefor. He is a talented musician and composer, and this will also be of great assistance to him in his work. Among the preachers receiving recommendation for local deacons’ orders at this dis•trict conference, to be ordained at the annual conference April 6th at Bluffton, is the Rev. J. C. Valentine of the Decatur M. E. circuit, residing at Preble. Among the speakers at the afternoon session yesterday were the Rev. G. H. Meyers of Montpelier. -o-— ■■ GbBLE GOT ALL HE DEMANDED. Sam Kuntz Will Have to Make Good For the Jack He Sold. Bluffton, Ind., March Special to Dally Democrat) —The jury in the case of Samuel W. Goble vs. Samuel Kuntz returned a verdice at 3:30 Wednerday afternoon, after being out but a short time, awarding the plaintiff the exact amount of damages asked in his Complaint, |500.' The suit was one to recover the amount named for a jack, which Goble purchased from Kuntz hi April, 1908, and which was not as represented. The Case was filed at Decatur a year or more ago and was brought to Wells county on a change of venue. The arguments were concluded about noon Wednesday. — .'p— Thompson Niblick, who was called to Fort Wayne Wednesday evening by the serious illness of his sister, Mrs. Rachel Paulison, returned next morning, announcing her death,* which occurred there Wednesday evening at 5 o’clock, a short time before his arrival. Mrs. Paulison was seventyseven years of age, and was the widow of JacobTpaulison, one of the pioneer residents of this county and city. For some time, since the death of her husband, she has made her home with her son, Samuel Paulison, 1109 St. Marys avenue. She has been an invalid for a number of years, but quite recently contracted the grip, which, with rheumatism and the infirmities of old age, caused her death. She was bom in Ohio March 15, 1832, and came to Indiana witu her parents more than seventy years ago. With her husband she spent the greater part of her life in this city in what is now the C. J. Weaver home. Her husband was a pioneer blacksmith of Decatur. Surviving relatives Include the son, Samuel, a well known Nickel plate brakeman, and six grandchildren. The husband and three children preceded her in death. There are three brothers, Thompson Niblick, of Decatur; Robert Niblick, who is located in the west, and John Niblick of Illinois, and two sisters, Mrs. Israel Rempp of Willshire and Mrs. George Prentiss of Oklahoma City, Okla. The body of Mrs. Paulison was brought to this city for burial, the cortege arriving over the G. R. & I. at 1:11 o’clock Friday afternoon. The remains were taken at once to the M. E. church, where services were held a »t 1 o’clock. The sermon was delivered by the Rev. Claude Travis, pastor of the Wayne Street church of Fort Wayne. o.'— *■'—" i - Mrs. Barbara Kirchner of Preble is spending the day in Fort Wayne. ’ir*. I-VVM ■V- '.' i "

The Krick-Tyndall company, whose big tile and brick manufacturing concern Is one of the best and most progressive concerns of this section of Indiana, Wednesday contracted for another piece of machinery that will further improve the facilities of the plant. They purchased a tile machine, that has a capacity of from three and - one-half to seven inch tile of forty thousand per day. The machine Is made of Tecumseh, Mich., and is the best on the market. It seems incredl-; ble that with all the improved and modern machinery In this plant now that they should be unable to meet the demands of their enormous and constantly increasing trade, but such is true. Any one who doubts the assertion should visit the plant any day and see the almost continuous stream of wagons going and coming ■ for tile. The question of draining Is j one that is solved in but one way, • and that is tile. Time was when a' farmer thought he was well off If he i had a line of tile across his fatm, but ‘ now every field is drained, and each year the farmer who knows his business keeps adding a little, until his entire farm is thoroughly drained. Krick & Tyndall are constantly behind with their orders and this fact forced the purchase of the new tile machine, with which they hope to keep even with the trade, at least on small tile. i o LUTHER BOYERS ARRIVES HOME. Luther Boyers, son of Dr. and Mrs. J. S. Boyers, who has been a student at Stanford University, California, being in his senior year, and who recently suffered an attack of appendicitis, arrived home Thursday afternoon at 3:20 o’clock. With his father he left this morning for Hope hospital, Fort Wayne, where an examination of his condition will be made. He had suffered three attacks earlier in the year, but his parents knew' nothing of this until the last attack, which confined him to the university hospital for some time. . o_ . OVERRULED NEW TRIAL MOTION. Judge Merryman Presided in Wells Circuit Court Yesterday. Judge James T. Merryman was here from Decatur this afternoon for the purpose of hearing motions and taking action on the verdict which a jury returned in the Manson Reiff case, on a charge of selling without a license. Attorney W. H. Eichhorn for Reiff made a motion for a new trial, on the ground that the verdict was contrary to law and that there was not sufficient evidence to warrant such a verdict as was returned by the jury. The motion for a new trial was overruled by Judge Merryman and he entered judgment on the verdict, assessing Reiff’s penalty at $75 fine and the payment of costs in the case. It is said that there is not likely to be any appeal in the case. No more of the 'Reiff cases will come to trial this term of court—-Bluffton News. . & — Truman Johnson, little four-year-old grandson of Mr. and Mrs. L. T. Brokaw, met with a painful accident Thursday afternoon. He was playing In front of the Brokaw home in the north part of the city, near where a bonfire had been built to bum =up some trash. While running about and too near tne fire he slipped and fell, his left arm falling across the fire in such a manner that his little hand rested in a bed of red hot coals. The inside of his hand was burned to a crisp, and the little lad’s screams could be heard for an hour, it being feared for some time that he would go into convulsions, but the injured hand was Janally dressed and Truman is resting much easier today. He consoles himself with the thought that he is a very much Injured boy, and that when his hand gets well he will scatter that old fire to the four winds, just to get even. — » —- — A unique traveler arrived in the city Friday by Wells-Fargo express, being none other than a highly decorated, though now battered black “stiff Katy” hat, looking as though it might have belonged to a “Weary Willie.” In fact it seems to have been somewhat of a “Weary Willie" itself, as it is on its way from Salamanca, N. Y„ and will probably not reach the end of its journey until it reaches San Francisco. It was sent out as a joke by one of the employees of the express company, and at every point along the way, it Is decorated and tagged by others. It presents a most comical appearance, ornamented with squirrel tails, anti punctured with cords that tie to it stiff tags, bristling in all directions. The tags bear humorous messages, and the names and addresses of the agents who write them. From Lima is sent the message, “Take care of me. I want to wear it Easter morning to church.” Akron, Ohio, says: “Going west for better health. Pass me on." Mansfield, OMo» says: “Nobody knows how dry I am,” while from Lima, again the • »

MSHsar=s=— ,n,» J' . ... , good historian spiels, “Wore this hat In the year 1812 at Bunker Hill.” Another tag says: “Don’t know where lam going, but I’m on the way.” Ben Elzey, the local agent, says this is the second freak package received here within a short time. The other was a suit case, sent from San Francisco east, and when it reached here it was decorated with a thousand stickers. The “Katy” will be sent from here this evening by Agent Elzey, going to Huntington and thence to Chicago on its western trip. Mr. Elzey contributed his share of tags to the hat, the notices reading: “Please give this poor dime a cripple to get a drink; ” “Why did I stop in Decatur and Huntington; they are both dry; send me to Chicago, it is wet.'’ Another addition was a yellow grocer’s sack, filled with cork. The message to this was. “The lunch in Decatur is a corker. I have brought some along. Look in the sack.” „ A reporter could not resist the desire to contribute a mite, so a tag bearing the words, “I arrived just in time to get a write-up in the Decatur Daily Democrat with the other Easter hats,” and a copy of this write-up will accompany “Katy” on its western trip. FROM MINNESOTA. James Byer, a boy thirteen years of age, and hailing from Menango, Minn., was in the city Thursday on his way to Chattanooga, where he will make his home with his uncle, James Byer. During all his life he has made his home In a wilderness, where his father has been engaged in the timber business. His mother died several years ago when he was yet small, and this is why he will make his home with his uncle. —o The Rev. I. Imler announces that the regular Sunday morning 4 service, beginning at 10:30, will be conducted by him at Union Chapel. Everybody is urged to attend. _____ Quite a number of Improvements on the schools of the city have been planned by the city school board and work on the same will begin as soon as the ter&i has ended, 1 May 28th. Among the contemplated improvements is the installing of a sanitary plumbing system at the central building. The innovations at the Central building will include twenty-two water closets in the basement, six of which will be juvenile. These will be built, half on each side of the basement, and the floors of this part of the basement will be of cement. There will also be four lavatories, two for each section. The s plumbing and all the equipment will be of the best, and the improvements will make this school building one of the best in the northern part of the state. The school board recently visited the schools at Huntington and other neighboring cities and gained therefrom much of practical use in the installation of this system. The plans have been made by Architect Christen and the board has advertised for the receiving of blds on the work. A new floor will also be put Jn_ the West Ward school, in every room except that of the office. The flooring now in has served from the time of the building of the school, about twenty years ago, and it has given remarkably good service during all this time, with hundreds of little feet wearing it away. /
