Miller, a life-long resident of Adams county, who his home

in Hartford township, for the past forty yeara, died very suddenly Thursday evening, was the message received by Mrs. L. C. Miller of this city, a sister-in-law. Mr. Miller had been walking about the barnyard when he suddenly fell over, and while kind hands carried him into the home, and everything possible was done to restore him, he passed away within two hours. He had been in rather poor health for some time, but his death at this time came most unexpectedly. It is thought to have been caused by an attack of the heart. Mr. Miller was born near Linn Grove seventy years ago last September, and was the son of Daniel and Elizabeth Miller, pioneer residents. In youth Mr. Miller was married to Miss Avoretta Morrow of Linn Grove, who, grief-stricken, survives, with one daughter, Mrs. David Sours, living near Linn Grove. He also leaves four grandchildren and the following brothers and sisters: William Miller of this county, Levi Miller, at Bloomington; Mrs. Kate Linsley and Miss Anna Miller of Linn Grove. The late L. C. Miller of this city was a brother, and Mrs. Albert Kindle, who met death a year ago last September from injuries resulting in the carriage-motorcycle collision, was a sister. Mr. Miller was one of the very prominent men of his community and well known over the county, where his death causes wide-spread sorrow. The funeral was held Sunday morning at 10 o’clock from the Christian church at Linn Grove. FURNITURE ARRIVES The three hundred dollar order, of furniture which was some time ago placed by the Knights of Columbus with Yager Brothers and Reinking has arrived and was today placed in I the lodge rooms headquarters. The | outfit consisted of two davenports and lour roekeys. All are built of strong heavy leathc r and finished in fine golden oak. They are of the swellest I and latest designed patterns and will make the reception room ol this lodge much more attractive. EXHIBIT SPECIAL. Tomorrow the first exhibit of the two scheduled to appear in this city and to give out information and literature pertaining to the many opportunities which are afforded in the northwest and to explain in several ways to the farmer and others interested in the line of agriculture many pointers for the bettering of their soil and what should be done for them to obtain better crofts, will appear in this city. This special car is run by the Northern Pacific railway and it is to appear on the G. R. & 1. side tracks on Saturday morning, March 25, north of Monroe street, during the day. All are asked to be on hand early and to obtain the valuable information which the experts in charge of the car are giving out at each place. Many varieties of grain and fruits raised in the northwest will be on the car for four inspection, so you can see lust what articles are raised and cultivated. The second car is to arrive on the 28th, also over the G. R. & I- which will also give information on the same subjects as the one which will appear here Saturday. Reports from the bedside of Mrs. R. K. Allison at the St. Joseph hospital, Fort Wayne, are that she is getting along very well after her most successful operation, which took place Thursday as stated in last evening s issue of the Democrat. The operation was performed at the St. Joseph hospital Thursday from 12 to 1 o’clock, and a multiple fibroid tumor, made up of many small fibroid tumors, in the aggregate weighing several pounds, together with the appendix, were removed. Dr. Rosenthal of Ft. Wayne was the chief surgeon, and he was assisted by Dr. P. B. Thomas of this city and Dr.Wells.a well known Indianapolis surgeon, who was brought to Fort Wayne by Mrs. Allison’s brother, Davis Foster, of Indianapolis, who, with other relatives, were at the hospital at the time of the operation, and who, with the immediate members of the Allison family, are still in Fort Wayne. The many friends of the Allison family are rejoicing over the success of the operation and her bright chances for a restoration to health. PREBLE SERVICES.

Dr. Rayl went this morning and will be met by Mr. Lee, both leaving in the morning, driving the car through. o Indianapolis. Ind., March 24—Hon. Stephen B. Fleming of Fort Wayne was in the city Wednesday, this being his first visit to the state capital since the adjournment of the legislature, that event occurring on the sixth of this month. Mr. Fleming Is I just fresh from New York, where he, with Mrs. Fleming, have been sojourning since closing his senatorial career —active senatorial career just j mentioned. It was not a pleasure trip I o the east, but business and busy business at that. The strenuous senator from Adams-Allen and politician from the state at large, is first of alt j .i business man. and were you to try I ro follow him for a day or even a part of a day, you would readily conclude that he is a child of industry and that business is his first and only care, and that politics is but a little recreation and pleasure in an otherwise busy life. For instance he with other capitalists are interested in New York commercial life and among other investments they own a very fine hotel there, and they also own similar property in Chicago, Detroit and several other cities. He is of the opinion that the Governor Marshall boom is going some in New York. He heard much favorable to the presidential boom of the Indiana governor. He sees a chance to make Indiana a formidable factor in the next national convention, and to either force the nomination of Indiana's favorite son, or command the situation to the extent of virtually naming the nominee. There is good logic in all this. The booms of Governor Harmon of Ohio, Dix of New York, as well at that of Mayor Gaynor, have already been more or less slightly punctured. ExGovernor Folk is heard of but little in connection with the presidency, and this leaves but Marshall, Wilson and Champ Clark who are figuring to any extent with the presidential builders of the national democracy. But there will be a real live’fight for the nomination, more so because of the fact that the political trend is yet toward the democracy and the one who wins the nomination has more than an even chance for election to the highest place within the gift of the American people. Since the Hon. Tiiomas Taggart announced his retirement from leadership in the Indiana democracy and stated that he would not seek the place of national committeeman again thqre has been more or less quiet speculation as to who would fill this important place. The eyes of many have turned toward Congressman Lincoln Dixon. The argument advanced in his behalf is that he is a leader in congress, a member of the ways and means committee, and that national politics is played more from Washington than from Indiana, all of which makes his selection logical. In addition, it is urged that his selection would not smack of factionalism and would clearly indicate that the Indiana democracy is united. The standpatters are fast coming into their own in this state. President Taft is putting on a bold front about his own independence in regard to Indiana natronage, but it always terminates in the standpatters getting their recommendations across, while Senator Beveridge and his friends get the consolation prizes, all of which is done in the name of the independence of the president. Great is independence, so say the standpatters. One instance is the appointment of Mote as postmaster at Union City, on the recommendation of Senator Beveridge. The appointment was made and confirmed by the senate, but his commission has not yet been signed by the president, all because the standpatters have no love for Mote. L - E ’

Ell Sprunger, who six weeks ago, assompanled by his son, Leo, left for New York, and several days later set sail for Europe, where ho has been purchasing Belgium horses for the firm of Frisinger &i Sprunger, is on his way home. WOia was received by Mr. Frisinger that they left Antwerp on Wednesday last on the steamer, Michigan, and aro scheduled to arrive on American shores April sth. They have in their care twenty head of the finest stallions ever purchased by this firm and the best than could be ob-' tailed by Mr. Sprunger. The group consists of fifteen sorrels and five roans, and are just what the fiYm is in need of. Their dealing in this line is an extensive one and they are receiving many calls for these two colors. During the past year they have sold more than during any previous year, and the present one has started in much in advance of all others. They still have a good selection to choose from and with the many fine ones soon to arrive they will as ever before be able to compete with any line offered for sale. —o TOO MUCH BOOZE. William Wells Pleads Guilty to Intoxication. William T. Wells, residing two miles south of the city, appeared before ’Squire Stone this morning to answer to a charge of public intoxication, which was held against him and to which he pleaded guilty. He had . gone to Fort Wayne and drank too freely of the fire-water, and when he returned he was in a helpless condi tion. He was picked up bx Night Policeman Melchi, on Court street, who escorted him to the county jail for the night's lodging and to sober up. This morning he pleaded guilty and tb.<’squire fixed his fine al $1 and costs, amounting in all to SB.BO, which he paid and was let go. He received some advice from the officer and promised to do better in the future. o Columbus, Ohio, March 23 (Special to Dailv Democrat)—Walter Mack, serving five years for forgery, lias received a conditional pardon from Governor Harmon. The conditions are that Mack must go to Wabash, Ind , where his brother will give him a position. It is specified that in case he is again convicted of a felony, he must return to the Ohio penitentiary and complete the remainder of his sentence. Springfield, 111., March 23—(Special to Daily Democrat) —A procession of pantaloon gowns, harem skirts, hobble skirts and other new departures in female wear on living models are to be exhibited before the house committee of the Illinois legislature, which has under consideration a bill, prescribing a penalty for wearing the new’ designs. When the bill came up today the committee demanded that Representative Murphy, the author of the bill, “produce the proofs,” and he was requested to bring along some models wearing the new gowns. Murphy declared he would comply if he had to buy a whole dress-maker's establishment. Indianapolis, March 23 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —Governor Marshall is expected to return to his office today from his vacation trip through the south. One of the first questions he will be called upon to answer has been set forth in a letter sent to him from an attorney, representing the reform element, in French Lick. The letter asks tbit the governor suggest some way in which gambling at the Brown hotel can be stopped. He is not asked to interfere, but merely to suggest some way of getting after the local authorities. — —o— ■ WILL GO TO CANADA. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Alexander and son. Orland, left this afternoon for Garrett, where they will visit with Mrs. Alexander s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Cowan. On Saturday Mr. Alexander and his brother-in-law, Oscar H.
