b the city today and related an experi- •- ence which they do not care to hap- > pen them again. Mr. Johnson had hitched a team of young colts to a two-seated rig for the purpose of coming to this city, but on account of the 5 cool weather put the side curtains on the buggy as a protection from the B cold air. When at Monroe and about ’ to make a sharp turn in the road 1 across the G. R. & I. tracks, a train ? came dashing along and frightened their team. In the mix-up one of the horses fell, breaking the tongue and harness, while the other one began kicking. None of the party were in r any way injured,, but all were badly frightened, because of the' fact that } that they were unable to see or get out of he rig as soon as they would have liked. Mrs. Johnson, *who was * in the rear Seat with the children, tore the curtains loose and jumped out. The horses broke loose from the t rig and ran quite a distance before < r they were caught. - 1 « .

w, bas' accepted the superintW ency of Hope hospital, Fort Wayne, tendering her resignation as superintendent of the Jay county hospital Friday, a position she has held the past year and a half. Miss Garard tendered her resignation to take effect November 10th and expects to enter upon her new duties as superintendent of Hope hospital, November 15th. While the position is a very responsible one, Miss Garard is fully competent to take charge of the same, securing the position through the recommendation of Dr. Porter of Fort Wayne? She will have charge of all the nurses and patients, and the‘management in detail and general. 1 Miss* Garard is a graduate of the Hope hospital training class of four years ago, and served four years as general nurse, before taking charge of the Jay county hospital, where she has served with the greatest satisfaction and success. The fact that she has been Offered the superlntendency of this larger hospital, and recommended by one of the leading physicians not only of Fort Wayne, but of Indiana, and this section of the United States, is proof sufficient of her ability. Miss Garard is a daughter of Al Garard of this city and will spend a few days here before going to her new work. Her friends are certainly pleased over her advance in this profession. — 0 ; GAVE CONCERT AT BERNE. Miss Beraht Carver, vocalist, and Miss Caryl Baughman, pianist, of South Salem, gave a concert In the Evangelical church at Berne for the benefit of Miss Carver.

They are contemplating giving concerts in this city and other places soon. - "■ “ST. ELMO” COMING. “St. Elmo,” a novel'written by Augusta J .Evans, and read by millions in the past twenty-five years, has at last been dramatised. The many readers of this popular novel who live in Adams county will no doubt read this Announcement with pleasure, as the company that Robert Robinson has placed entour will play an engagement of one night at the opera house Monday, October 31st. The Sidney Daily News, in their issue of March 19th, has the following to say regarding the performance of “St. Elmo,” in that city: The much heralded “St. Elmo” attracted a capacity house last night at the Lyric. Why a novel as popular as “St. Elmo” should have lain dormant so long is beyond comprehension. It is a remarkable play, replete with original comedy, the climaxes reaching a display of realism seldom seen. The cast, headed by Catherine Hadley, all did good work. Robert Robinson, in the title role, showed a keen appreciation of the cynical character, and invested It with convincing earnestness. Miss Hadley, as Edna Earl, who by her own efforts, rose to be a student of high order, gave as clever a performance as has been seen here for many a day. Her personality fits her for the character. Ralph Holland, as Van Jiggens, carried off the comedy honors and made a hit. Mr. Balbridge and Mr. Scribner also lent valuable assistance. Miss Munson and Miss Clarg acquitted themselves admirably. * —o ALLEN'S LUNG BALSAM. Has been used successfully for. years for deep-seated coughs, colds, bronchitis.

Muncie, Ind., Oct. 29—(Special to Dally Democrat)— Congressman Adair last night spoke to the largest crowd of the campaign, notwithstanding the fact that both Colonel Roosevelt and Senator Beveridge have visited this city. It was an enthusiastic assemblage of the voters of Delaware county and they cheered to the echo and endorsed everything that the able representative from the Eighth district .said. As usual he presented the is-

-SHW. sues or the campaign in an able manner and discussed legislation in congress with which he has been iclentifld during the last four years, and showed that he was never ted by experience and ability to represent this great district in the halls of congress. It was a great speech by a really great man, and it is the concensus df opinion in Mqqple today that. Congressman Adair is stronger in Delaware county now than he was two years ago, whdn he came within five votes, of carrying the county against Uncle Nate Hawkins, the republican nominee., s Congressman Adair is and always jras popular In this county and the people generally believe that, his excellent record should insure his return to congress. Portland, Ind., Oct. 29—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Congressman Adair is still the favorite in his own county and will have a plurality that will make him proud of his friends and his neighbors. He will conclude his campaign with a speech in this x city the night before the election and it will be the greatest political event ever proposed In the county. o Seldom have Decatur people an opportunity to witness as rare a treat as the musical entertainment rendered Friday qvening at the Evangelical church by the members of the congregation assisted by other talent. It was a success throughout, and those whe attended were more than pleased with the evening’s program. > It was composed of fifteen numbers and all were excellent, each being received with much applause by the audience. The program was opened by Miss Verna Smith, and she was followed by the glee club of the Mennonite church of Berne, who as on former occasions, gave complete satisfaction. The readings by Miss Minerva French were considered about the best numbers on the program and Miss French was called back again and again Special numbers were also rendered by-the ladies’ quartet, E. J. C’s, Dr. and Mrs. J. Q. Neptune, a solo by Dr. Patterson, and each number was weil received. Miss Electa Glancey gave a beautiful solo, which was also much appreciated. The pastor and those in charge of the program had worked diligently for some time past, and are deserving of the great success which crowned their efforts. SURPRISE OF THE SEASON. One of the most complete autumn surprises was that given for Mrs. Mary Durr at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Samuel Chronister, south of the city Thursday.
