-ON TO MEXICO” IS SLOGAN. Medero and His Army of Insurgents Will March on Chihauhau Soon. ’ El Paso, Tex., May U-(Speclal to Daily Democrat)-‘On to Mexico City" was the slogan of the Mexican insurrectos today. Within a week it is predieted that Medero will he on the marCh "^ I Thu 6 pia- Consoles, the proi Xional governor, has stated this is visional b Martjal Uw prevailß the T ne rP , today no one being allowed I’, oS rXf..

L. L. Baumgartner, ex-surveyor of Adams county, who moved to Linn Grove from this city a few months ago after finishing his term of office here, where be purchased a general store, which he has been conducting since, has sold the store to J. A. Martz and W. W. DeWeese of Keystone, who until a few weeks ago conducted a general store at Keystone under the name of Martz & DeWeese. The Bluffton News says: "In making the deal they traded to Mr. Baumgartner the 250-acre farm in Jackson county, Ind., which they acquired from Morris Edris in the trade by which they took the land for their Keystone store, sold afterwards 9y Mr. Edris to Jesse Phillips, who is running it. "It is announced by Messrs. Martz & De Weese that they intend to put on a big sale at the store which they have acquired at Linn Grove. They secured possession this morning and aro completing arrangements for a big stock reduction sale to start next Saturday, May 13th. The sale will be in charge of W. I. Evans of this city, of the Evans Salvage company. Messrs. Martz & DeWeese announce their intention of running the store steadily after completing their sale for the purpose of reducing stock. "Martz & DeWeese were in business five years at Keystone before they sold to Morris Edris.’’ Both of the new owners intend to move to Linn Grove, while Mr. Baumgartner will take up other work. The general store has a stock amounting to about $7,000. o ■ Washington, D. C., May 11 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —Recognition of the Mexican insurgents as beligerents is little nearer today than before the catpure of Jaurez, declared officials. By recognizing the insurgents the United States would abandon claims for damages suffered by American citizens. It would also be regarded as a declaration of moral support to the insurrectos, which would amount to a reversal of the “hands off" policy. Medero may now import arms and amunition and supplies as he pleases and individuals may cross the boarder at will. Expeditions, consisting of three or more, however, are prohibited under the neutrality laws. Mexico City, May 11—(Special to Daily Democrat)—A conference for the safe-guarding of lives and property of foreigners is in progress today with ambassadors and ministers of all countries in attendance. The outcome is likely to be an offer of services of 5,000 leading Mexicans and members of foreign colonies thrown out as a reserve police force. The foreign guards will be neutral, their work being to protect public buildings and foreign property. — — Attorney L. C. DeVoss and son, Frank, left Friday noon on their trip to Calltomia, where they go with i the hope of benefiting the son s health. They leave here at 12:47 over the Erie for Chicago, where they take the Santa Fe railroad, with all firstclass passenger accommodations to Los Angeles, Cai., and from there to Barstow, Cal., where Mrs. DeVoss’ brother, Clarence Kendrick, resides. Frank has been in poor health the greater part of the winter, first developing an attack of the grip, to which later was added bronchial affection. His recovery is not as rapid as one could desire, though he is able to be about the streets and it is thought the change to the southern clime will bring about the desired return to health. The best that can possibly be done for that effect will be done, and his many Decatur friends are hoping to see him back in a short while ■ brown as a berry” and as plump as the biggest and best. The duration of their stay will depend upon the improvement shown. o The annual meeting of the trustees of the German Reformed church was a very interesting and profitable one. The meeting was held in the church parlors. In gonig over the business of the past year all departments were found in a nourishing condition, and are in better shape than for some time. The election of officers was also held, the officers elected to look after the financial affairs of the church, as well as to promote any question which may come before the board that would prove of any benefit. Some plans for improvements to be made this summer toward decorating the interior were discussed, but nothing definite was done. This matter will again come before the board in the near future. Several reports were read, considered and approved, and the past year has been satisfactory in every respect. The election of officers resulted in the following: William Wetter, elder; Fred Sellemeyer, deacon; Fred Mutchler, trustee, and Peter Kirsch, treasurer. An automobile acciden t occured Wednesday on the run to the fire, which seriously damaged the new Decatur automobile belonging to Julius TTaugk. The machine was being driv-

en by his foui leau y»ar «ld seu, Herman, who had with him his sister, and two boys named Butler and Laches and when approaching the corner of Adams and Thirteenth streets he was hailed by a boy friend who angered at his not stopping for him, hurled a brick, and in endeavoring to dodge the missile, the driver turned the machine into the curb. The impact threw the occupants of the machine from the car, and they were considerably bruised, although no serious injuries were sustained. The car was badly damaged, the front wheels and axle being demolished, and the rear wheel crushed, and on turning on Its side the wind-shield was broken. The machine was purchased new this spring and is a runabout model manufactured by the Decatur Motor Car company. Herman was unable to state the name of the boy who threw the missile but is able to identify him and if the culprit is caught he will probably be prosecuted. _o Hooper & Lenhart are attorneys for plaintiffs in four cases, in which George Trlcker and his wife, Sarah J. Tricker, are defendants. The suits grew out «f the Jackson & Decatur Coal company, of which Mr. Trlcker has been president. Three suits are for contribution and to set aside fraudulent conveyance. The plaintiffs claim they were obliged to pay Mr. Tricker’s share of certain notes and that to get out of paying them, on December 26, 1910, he deeded to his wife, his farm in St. Mary’s townsnip, for the alleged consideration of $4,000, without leaving him sufficient other property subject to execution, from which the claims or debts could be paid, and that the conveyance was made without any consideration therefor, but for the fraudulent purpose qf preventing the collection of the accounts. The other suit is on account, and to set aside fraudulent conveyance. In complaint one, the plaintiffs are Ella Overly, Robert S. Campbell, Sherman Hill and Archie P. Hardison, who demand $558.81. The note was given June 10, 1910, to the Citizen's Saving & Trust Co. of Jackson, Ohio, for $2,721.49, of which Tricker’s contributive share is $558.81. In complaint two, Robert S. Campbell, Sherman Hill and Ella Overly are plaintiffs, demanding $545.15, the note being given December 15, 1910, to Daniel J. Jones for $2,180.61, Tricker’s contributive share of which was $545.15* Complaint three, names Sherman Hill and Robert S. Campbell plaintiffs, demand SBOO. This note was given January 29, 1908, to Henry Hunsinger for $2,000, of which Tricker’s contributive share was SBOO. The fourth case is a suit on account and to set aside fraudulent conveyance. The plaintiff is Evan O. Roberts, receiver of the Jackson & Decatur Coal company, demand $l5O, on account. Mr. Tricker was president and R. S. Campbell secretary of the Jackson & Decatur Coal company, out of which these suits grow. — Mrs. P. H. Wagner is slowly improving and the Decatur people who paid her a visit Friday state that she is much better than she was several days ago. Her operation was a serious one and several more weeks will be required before she can leave the hospital. — o — Hayward, Minn., May 13—(Special to Daily Democrat)—John F. Deitz wastoday found guilty of the murder of Deputy Sheriff Oscar Harp, killed in the famous battle October Bth of last year. Mrs. Deitz and son, Leslie, were acquitted. The jury was out the entire night. Judge Reid sentenced Deitz to life imprisonment in the penitentiary, one day each year, being the anniversay of the battle, to be spent in solitary confinement. Deitz asked for a new trial on the grounds that the original testimony had been ruled out. The court instructed him that his appeal to the supreme court must be made within ten days. Deitz declared that if the lumber trust demanded a victim, “he could stand for it.’’ Washington, D. C„ May 13—(Special to Daily Democrat)—President Taft left this afternoon for a trip to Newark, N. Y., and Harrisburg, Pa. The president will deliver two addresses in Newark tonight, will Sunday in New York, will go to Harrisburg Monday, where he will address the convention of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, dine with Governor Tener, spend the night as the guest of Representative Olmstead, returning to Washington at noon next day. WILL VISIT OLD HOME. Mrs. Jay Dnrwin of Port Townsend, Wash., is expected to arrive early next Saturday morning for a several weeks visit with her mother, Mrs. H. L. Coverdale. Mrs. Dorwln is the wife of Rev. J. Dorwln, a son of Mrs. Belinda Dorwln, of this city, where he formerly lived. He is now a Methodist minister and for the past four years has lived at Port Townsend, Wash. The visit

of Mrs. Dorwln here is looked forward to with pleasure by her mother, as it bus been seven years since Mrs. Dorwln was privileged to visit her home here. , o (United Press Service.) Mexico City, May 13—(Special to Dally Democrat) —That an insurgent attack upon Mexico City and an uprising of Medero sympathizers within the city is believed Imminent Is Indicated by the action of the officials in guard ing national palaces and the Belam prison. Cannons have been hastily mounted on the main fortification and the garrison force increased to 1,000 wUhia the past tweaty-four liem*. The situation is regarded as critical. Foreign diplomats have arranged for the protection of their people. Washington, D. C., May 13 —(Special to Daily Democrat)—An uprising among the farmers which is without precedent in spread or intensity today marked a week's demonstration before the senate committee in opposi tion to the Canadian reciprocity agree ment. Farmers from the following states voiced their protest against the bill: Connecticut, Massachusetts. New Hampshire, Maine, New York, Illinois, Minnesota Missouri, Oregon, Michigan West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Colorado and Washington. Bellington, W. Va., May 13—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Forest fires in the mountains about Bellington threaten to destroy all the timber between Bellington and Elkins. Hundreds of men are fighting the flames, but owing to the high wind but little headway is being made. G. A. R. INVITATION. Sam Henry Post, No. 63, G. A. R., extends an invitation to the principal, teachers and scholars of the public and Catholic schools of the city and to all the lodges and citizens of the city to participate in the Memorial day exercises, May 30, 1911. COMMITTEE. INJURES HAND. While catching tile at the KrickTyndall mill today John Deßolt had Dis hand injured by having it caught in the cut-off table. The attention of a physician was necessary to dress the injury. SOME BETTER. Henry Thomas, the cigar man, who on Thursday evening met with a mishap while on the road selling goods, by being thrown from the rig in which he was riding, and receiving a dislocated knee, is Improving, but the injury is still quite painful. The horse which he was driving took fright at a nearby train, causing the mix-up in which be received the injury. The accident occurred at Tilmanville, near Monroeville, about 6 o’clock, and he had to go to the latter place to receive the necessary attention to the injured member. Later in the evening he returned to this city, and since then he has been confined to his home and is unable to carry on his business. Although the accident is not serious, he will not be able to get about for a week or so. — - Quite recently, as well as in years gone by, Decatur people have been bothered with crank writers of ,‘chainless letter prayers,” which have spread their network of demand over the entire country, asking the recipient to write the “prayer" again and send it to ten or twenty friends, asking them to do the same unuer penalty of calamity if the failure to carry on the chain is broken. Those who have regarded this method as ridiculous (because so many of the “prayers” in fact are utterly senseless and meaningless), have failed to comply with the demand for continuance, will be pleased to find that they have in the person of the Rev. J. C. White of Kokomo, former pastor of the Methodist church in this city, a staunch public defender. A Kokomo dispatch to the Indianapolis Star, says relative thereto: “Believing that prayer chain letters are wholly bad in their effects, the Rev. John C. White, pastor of the Grace M. E. church, this city, has requested members of his congregationto have nothing to do with them. He points out that the prayer chain letter promises the person receiving such epistle a blessing if he continues the "chain,” and threatens him with a misfortune if he fails to continue it. This, the Rev. White asserts, tends to beget superstition. He says the effects are particularly bad on highly imaginative or morbidly sensitive persons. Another contention is that those who write the letters do it partly in the hope of winning the promised reward and partly in the hope of averting the threatened calamity, but never out of an unselfish impulse to aid some one else through prayer. Mr. White recently received
