Some people may consider that , there is nounng in a name, but all | the same when it comes to entering it upon the police records, they are mighty glad to have the letters mixed around in a sort of transposition puz-, zle that would make an interesting society affair contest. There was not very much excitement in police court Sunday evening at 6 o’clock when two affidavits were filed in Squire J- H. | Stone’s court, charging Robe _ Bursely,” and “Edith M. Ray. 1 Wayne, with public intoxication, but when the two respondents made the Children Cry FOR FLETCHERS GAST O R I A

appearance a short time later and it i was found that the names had been JKarbled somewhat (owing, no doubt, to a poor pen, or a shortage in the ink i supply which it was found necessary to dilute at the last moment) there I was much consternation, and the news soon went the rounds that the I two under arrest were a well known elderly man of this city and a well known loriner Decatur young lady, now holding forth in Fort Wayne. The two pleaded guilty to the charge of public intoxication and were lined $1 , and costs each, which they paid and were released and sped on their ways. I The arrest was made about 6 o'clock | by Marshal Peterson and Sheriff T. J. ; Durkin, who found the couple in a ’ loom over one of the business buildings In the city. Both were intoxicated, having apparently been drinkj ing something stronger than “Burs- ' ley’s” high grade coffee. Monday morning at 11:65 o'clock at the home of her son, J. S. McCrory, in the west part of the city, occurred the death of Mrs. Sarah McCrory, better known as "Grandma" McCrory, one of Van Wert, Ohio's aged and well known ladies. Mrs. McCrory, who next November would have been eighty-two years of age, has been in failing health for several months from a complication of diseases attending old age. Quite recently she was braught to the home of her son, where she was given excellent care, attended by those near and near to her. But her body, weakened by the infirmities of old age, had finished its work here *nd her spirit took its flight to the land of eternal life. She was born in Ashland county, Ohio, November 2, 1829, but had been a resident of Van Wert, Ohio, thirty-five years. Her husband. John McCrory, has been dead a long number of years, dying in 1882. She leaves but two children— J. S. McCrory, of this city, and 'William McCrory, of Ohio City. A short funeral service will be held at the home of the son, J. S. McCrory, tomorrow morning at 8:30 o’clock by the Rev. I. Imler of the United Brethlen church, and the funeral procession will then drive to Van Wert, Ohio, leaving here at 9 o’clock. The body will lie in state at her home in Van ( Wert until Wednesday morning, at 10 ! o’clock, when the funeral will be held, the Lutheran minister officiating. i o Threatening rain clouds, followed with slight sprinkles or any other preventative did not keep the hundreds |of friends and relatives from reI spending to the invitation of attend- • iug the Anthony Voglewede family re- s union Sunday, and also to help re- | mind him that it was his fifty-fourth ; birthday. Although great preparation | had been under way for weeks, and ' in charge of Mrs. Voglewede, he sus- | picioned nothing of the quiet work and j was overtaken with one of the most | complete surprises of his life. It had been arranged that all meet at the Julius Kohne home a quarter of a mile east of the place of the celebration, and when all had assembled, or nearly so, set out with over-flowing baskets, and took their friend by surprise, while he was lying in sweet repose on the floor. He was at first unable to realize what had happened, hue when told of their intentions made the best of it and started right in to entertain his many guests. All made themselves comfortable on the beautiful home lawn, which had been especially placed in more attractiveness. The main feature of the afternoon was conversation between ttye many, and the extending of the glad hand to Mr. Voglewede on the happy occasion. | Music was also furnished at intervals and at all times many viewed their | pretty country home with its many comfortable surroundings. Between two and three hundred guests were numbered at the home, including uncles, aunts, cousins of the fourth and ■ fifth, and it was one of the most comI plete ever gathered at the Voglewede i homestead. Around the evening hour j the well-filled baskets that had been I brought were opened up and the con- ! tents spread on large tables, some in I the yard, where large numbers feast- , ed. but as the rain began falling about 1 that time room had to be made inside I whe re the meal was finished. Nothing was lacking in the way of delicacies. Everything imaginable was to I be had, and the only thing that caused ! any disturbance was that they could I not eat more. In addition to the eleigant country home style, ice cream i and cake was served by Mr. and Mrs. ! Voglewede. I A more pleasant time could not have been anticipated and the happy day i v ill long linger in the minds of the 'many present. Mr. and Mrs John Grund, Mr. and Mrs. B. Plock and daughter, Miss Elenore, of Ft. Wayne , and Mrs. Theodore Overman and ! daughters of Covington. Ky„ were among the many from out of the city. Father Wilken and Father Flaherty were among the many in attendance Hom this city. The rain also marred the day of pleasure to a certain extent for the many picnickers of the Zion s Lutheran church of this city and who had

■I. I , r Kone to the St. John's grove shortly after the noon hour to spend the remainder of the day. The crowd had to seek shelter wherever the could find It in various buildings, the school house near there, and the stands, which had been used as refreshments places during the day. The day had been long planned for, and many who had expectations of attending were kept away by the threatening clouds. Goldie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James V. Hendricks, celebrated her fourteenth birthday Friday by inviting a few of her friends to her country ■ home south of Monroe. Those present were Bill Cauffman, Paul Graham. Carl Shirk, Ray Peterson, Clyde Ray, Beit Lee, Clifton Duer, Martin Kusche, Wes Urich, Irvin Urich, Harry Kissler, Orvil Kissler, Byrcn Hendricks, Ora Hendricks, Edward Het: dricks, Lawrence Spuller, Hosie Andrews, Misses Goldie Hendricks, Sylva Hendricks, Edna Mack, Cecil Reckaril, Olive Oliver, Noma Dulen, Gladys Lee, Blanche Pence. lassie Watkins, Felcie Duer and Clara Lobenstine of Piqua, Ohio. Games were played until a late hour, when refreshments were served by Mrs. Hendricks. Miss Goldie was sped on the new year of her life with many good wishes. H. B. Brenharger returned this morning to Gas City after a visit here over Sunday with his wife at the home of her sister, Mrs. Will Butler. Mrs. Butler’s mother, Mrs. D. H. Miller, or Greenville, Ohio, Is also a guest at the Butler home. The Butler family has gone to the farm north of the city, where they are spending the summer. The wedding of Clem Uhl of Toledo, Ohio, and Miss Clara Terveer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Terveer, will take place tomorrow morning at the St. Mary’s Catholic church. Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Suttles had as their guests Sunday evening Mr. and Mrs. Will Vesey, the Misses Margaret and Catherine Vesey of Fort Wayne, Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Edwards of Leipsic, Ohio; Mr. and Mrs. Burton Niblick, Mr. and Mrs. John Niblick and daughter, Helen. I Many attended the annual picnic given at St. John’s grove yesterday by the Zion’s Lutheran church of this city. But for the rain of the afternoon. which somewhat dampened the ardor, everything passed off smoothly. Games of all kinds, refreshments, and a program by the children contributed to the pleasure. I Mr. and Mrs. Gust Yager and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Houck and daughter, Mary Elizabeth, of Bluffton came to this city by auto yesterday and were entertained at dinner by Mr. and Mrs. Martin Miller and at supper by Mr., and Mrs. Otto Reppert. The Ladies’ Aid society of the United Brethren church will be entertained Thursday afternoon by Mrs. Clarence Baughpian. The Young People’s Christian En j deavor society of the United Brethren church will give an ice cream social Thursday evening on the church lawn. ! I Mr. and Mrs. Al Steele were guests Sunday at dinner of Mr. and Mrs. D. V. Steele. — FUNERAL OF ELLA 3CHAKEL. The Preble Lutheran church was filled Sunday morning with the sorI rowing friends of Miss Ella Schakel, fourteen-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Schakel, when the Rev. Koch, the pastor, conducted the funeral services for this well known yound lady. Her death occurred Friday morning from appendicitis. The body was laid to rest in the church cemetery. o- — The Decatur rural mail carriers no doubt felt like dancing a jig Monday morning when the increase of their salaries, which has been long rumored in dispatches sent from headquarters in Washington to the various newspa . pers, was assured in the official notice received this morning by Postmaster W A. Lower. The increase is based on th® number of miles covered by the carriers on their routes, and nearly all of the twelve carriers going out from the Decatur postoffice will be in line for the one hundred dollar increase given to a carrier whose route is twenty-four miles or more. Nearlj’ all of the Decatur rural carriers have routes of this length, some being twen-ty-six miles or more. The increase of salary was effective July 1, 1911. The following is the schedule of increase: Former Sal. Present 24 miles or mores9oo SIOOO 22 to 24 miles 864 960 20 to 22 miles 810 900 18 to 20 miles 720 800 16 to 18 miles 630 700 14 to 16 miles 640 600 12 to 14 miles 504 560 10 to 12 mi lite 458 8 to 10 miles 432 480 6 to 8 miles 396 440

Burt Segur of Fort Wayne, who spent Sunday here with his father, Harvey Segur, left this morning for . Cheboygan, Michigan, where he will look after real estate business. Burt is a member of the Cheboygan realty firm, which has its district office in Fort Wayne, the firm having about 100,000 acres of land in Michigan which ft is disposing of. Burt makes the trip to Cheboygan at this time, as his father, Harvey Segur, and he have an option on 9,400 acres of land In that vicinity and It is thought the contract for the purchase of the land will be closed now. The land is rapidly increasing in value and the Segurs think it an excellent investment proposition. Burt stated that a telegram from their field man stated that Cheboygan was well out of the fire belt and suffered very little from the recent fires which worked so much havoc in the north. WILLIAM LUDY RESIGNS. Portland, Ind., July 17 —William' Ludy, who has been employed by the Grand Rapids & Indiana railroad com pany during the last eighteen years, has severed his connection with the company. The last six years he has been a resident of Portland, during v hich time he served as day operator at the local station. The second trick man, Rufus Smith, has been given the position and a relief man will be employed as night operator. Mr. Ludy has purchased half interest with C. F. Dunn in the bottling works and i salteady engaged in his new work. They have purchased a new motor truck delivery and will make other improvements in the plant, running it at its greatest capacity. o HENRY GETTING IS RECOVERING. Henry Getting, the well known Root township farmer, who was seriously injured about two weeks ago, when he I fell from a load of hay in his bain yard, receiving a dislocated shoulder and other bruises, has so far recovered that he was able to be in town Saturday. He called on his doctor who examined him and said he would soon be as well as ever. o WILBUR WEICKING TO EUROPE. Wilbur Wiecking left this morning at 10:30 over the Clover Leaf, bound for New York City, from where he will sail for German, where he will enter a commercial college for a one year course, and possibly two. He will be joined in Ridgwood, N. J., by his uncle, Herman Weicking, who is visiting there, and who will accompany him on the trip abroad anc remain with him until he becomes settled in the college, which opens in September. The college in which he will enroll is located at Osnabruck, Germany, and is widely known at the Noelle Andelischaule, being one of the largest schools of Germany, with several thousand students. Miss Hermina Wieckling and Fred Wieckling also attended the same school for one term a few years ago. Weicking will make j his home with relatives in Bramshe, a small town about twenty-five miles , from Osnabruck, and will make the ' trip back and forth every night and I morning with other students, who reside In Bramshe. He will also visit other points in Europe before entering I the school and before returning home. I Mr| Wieckling will remain in Germany for a visit of two months with relatives. —Bluffton Banner He was accompanied as far as Decteur by Mr. and Mrs. Weicking. The police courts were busy Sunday | and this morning settling the cases > which were furnished by the opera-1 ' tions of Marshal Peterson and Police ' man Melchi Saturday evening. I Owing to the tact that several of those who were arrested wanted to i go to work this morning a trial was granted Sunaay upon their demand, the first up Denig William Swigart on a charge of public intoxication, he pleading guilty and taking a share of SI.OO and costs, which he paid. I I The second was Ed Knavel, on a plain drunk charge, he also pleading guilty, and as it was a second offense he drew $3.00 and costs. He was able to stay the docket and was allowed to go. Sunday night about 6 o'clock more arrests were made, two parties being found in an up-town office in an intoxicated condition. They were tried ' at once, Robert M. Bursley being arraigned, pleaded guilty and drew SI.OO and costs. His companion, Edith M. ! i Ray, of Fort Wayne, also pleaded ' guilty and drew the same amount. — i Pat Malone, arrested by Policeman ' Melchi, was given a hearing this ' morning on a charge of public intoxl- * cation and on account of his being a ' cripple and not very obnoxious to the I i Cry > FOR FLETCHER’S >.

M 3 MAIN STREET, SHIRLEY. MASS. people on the street lie was given the privilege of getting out of town, a favor of which he readily availed himself of. People who travel with trunks forty inches in length or more may be required by railroad companies to pay mi extra tariff. It is expected that all railroad companies throughout the county will fall into line on this rule. The Central Tassenger association has gone on record in favor of the forty-inch limit and other associations, it is believed, will not deem it advisable to adopt a different scheme. When it was announced some time ago that railroads operating in various parts of the United States were considering the advisability of making an extra charge for carrying a “freak” or extra-sized trunk, a large number of trunk manufacturers registered vigorous protests contending that their business would be injured by a rapid decline in demand for trunks of unusual dimensions. An appeal was forwarded to railroad officials for action against the plan. Representatives of the railroads say additional work is required in handling these trunks and that their owners ought to pay an extra charge for the service. This rule is to be enforced after January Ist. There are commercial drummers who do not at all like the rule. —■— i Albert Butler returned this morning to Deedsville, he being the guest of his family over Sunday. Frank Barthol has received some postals from Lee Martin at Fairbanks, Alaska, showing the high waters which they experienced there, and the Golden Gate hotel, where they formerly lodged. The hotel is five squares from the river front and the water had driven the lower floor occupants to the upper stories. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA DR.
