Wrong npealurs have bean secured "nd a Meh treat in In more for all who may huy B tha prlvlle(fe of attondlag . The Woman’s Mieuionary convention will nleo be held at. the park, bsegiiir' nlng on Friday, with Mia. John. Koch, of Indianapolis, as president. Rev. G. Hemmiller, 1), I)., and Rev. | H. A. Kramer, both editors of the de--1 aominarional literature of Ctevetasd, Ohio, will make addresses at the conventions. Sundays, August tith and 13th, will he the greatest days, when thousands of visitors nearby, will flock to the , park to spend the day and hear the' addresses. On Tuesday, August Bth, the quadrennial convention of the Yonng People's Alliance will convene. This , body is made up of elected delegates from every conference In the United | States and Canada. There will be representatives also from Germany, | Switzerland and Japan. This is the | first time that such a body of dignitaries ever met at Oakwood. All bishops, editors and leading men of the Evangelical association are expected at the park from the Bth to the 14th. ' Surely these coming conventions will eclipse anything that the church has ever held at Oakwood park, and why should it not be so? We are making many improvements in every line, why not in church work ? ( The board of trustees is doing its best to entertain the people. In addition to the large hotel on the lake front and ( ; the superintendent’s home on the top of the hill, the dormitory and sleeping rooms over the dining hall and the twelve or fifteen cottages owned by the association, there are ten nice new tents, with floors, which are fine outfits for private parties who wish to spend a few days’ outing. ; . Two large assembly tents have been secured, one to use in holding l meetings in addition to the large, frame tabernacle, and the other large tent is to be used for a garage to ac-; commodate parties driving to the meetings in automobiles. This week seems to be preparatory week, as all the cottagers are busy cleaning and getting ready for next ( week. Carpenters and painters are working with might and main to put things In order before any meetings are held. The superintendent of the nark, P. W. Soltan, and his family are working almost as many hours as the negro who said he worked tw-enty-five hours every day, and when told that there were only twenty-four hours in a day he said, “Well. I get up an hour before day.’’ | Fort Wayne, Ind., July 29 —The po- | lltical desires of State Senator Steph- ! en B. Fleming have just been made l ' known to his friends here. Mr. FlemI ing wishes to be returned to the IndiI , ana state senate from the district I composed of Adams and Allen coun- | ties. He has talked of going back to I Indianapolis as a state representative; I ' but his friends say that wherever he I made the suggestion that he would i like to go to the lower house he was . asked why he did not stick to the upper house, where he could do hie I work with better efficiency. The upshot of it all was that Mr. > Fleming found his friends insisting that he stay in the senatorship race and let the talk of a house seat drop. The fact is, Allen county is entitled, I under customary action by mutual agreement, to take down the state I senatorial nomination next year. All ' the time Mr. Fleming has been talking ■ of his desire to go back to the state 1 ' legislature and of his purpose to make a race for a place on the ticket as a l candidate for representative, his friends have been listening for word i from Adams county to tell them of a 1 prospective aspirant for Fleming’s, I gg3,t, Adams county, it is said, has not re- ■ sponded with the suggestion of a sue-, i cessor to Fleming. Apparently there is no democrat in Adams county who wishes to take Fleming's place. The , 1 Fleming democrats in Adams evidentI' ly are pleased to permit Fleming to I continue in his place as state senator. 1 \nti-Fleniing democrats, knowing the probable fate of a democrat who I would make the race for state sena-, tor against the wishes of Fleming are inclined to let the matter go by the I board. ' | So the word has gone out here quiet-1 ► ly that Mr. Fleming will accept a re-, . nomination for the state senate. Here in the Twelfth district Sena-, ' tor Fleming is the dynamic whole . thing in democratic politics. He is a . mine of enthusiasm, hustle and shrewdness. He will work twenty- ’ four hours a day to gain the point, and , he will be as vigorous and cheerful at , the end as he was when he started, t He is an athlete in politics and in ! business. With his shrewdness his, i wealth, his untiring industry and ag ( aaivpness he is a tremendous pow-, , , er for good or evil in this part of the, I St “if'you will just bet it out of your head that Steve Fleming is ambitious and start from the realization that he i. entirely without political ambition ... u wi n be able to dope out Flemings

_ jBBBBBBBMmMBBM course, '* said one of Mr. Fleming’s closest followers. ’’Mr. Fleming is not seeking high plsice," he went on. “He is not a would-be state boss. He does not' plan to land any office. We do not * look on his aspiration to the state senatorship as a vaulting ambition in a man of his native ability and strength of character. One thing is certain as ' to Allen county and the Twelfth disi trict, and that is, Mr. Fleming can have about anything he usks for. He is that strong.’’—lndianapolis Star. —— ——• Officials of this and several surrounding counties have been scouring > the country since Saturday midnight looking for a thief who stole a horse and rig from the hitching rack behind the Kverett & Hite grocery between 9 i aud 11 o’clock Saturday night, the outfit belonging to Jesse, son of the late , Rev. L. L. Rupert, of near Monroe, who resides on the home place with his widowed mother. Mr. Rupert had come to town Saturday evening to buy some groceries and other things i and had hitched bls horse and rig to | the rack, where, as usual, there were many others. About 11 o’clock when i he went to get the rig to go home, it was gone. He immediately notified Night Policeman Melchi and Sheriff , Durkin, and they began searching for i the outfit. In the meantime, Mr. Rupert hastened home, thinking that perhaps the horse had become unhitched and had struck out for home. Arrival at home, however, found no' horse there, and search in all places to which the horse might have gone, failed to locate the animal. Mr. Rupert then returned here, arriving about 4 o’clock Sunday morning, and the officials immediately got busy. Word to sheriffs of surrounding counties was sent, and it was said that at both Fort Wayne and Van Wert, Ohio, horses answering the description of the one stolen here were held, but these failed . to be the right one. Upon the advice of Mrs. Rupert, the sheriff and deputy went to a point southeast of Monroe late Sunday afternoon, where it was thought the ; horse might be recovered. They were 1 gone until 10 o’clock Sunday night but the search proved unavailing. A ' reward of fifty dollars for the apprehension of the thief and horse is offered, twenty-five dollars being offer- j ed for the apprehension of the thief ; and twenty-five dollars for the recov--1 ery of the horse. The horse and rig are described as follows: Light grey mare, 1 ten years old; valued at $200; dark j ' man, tail and legs. Only marks, warts around one of Tier eyes. Weighs between 1200 and 1300 pounds. Shod all around and has a rather small noof. I She was hitched to Anderson rubber- ’ | tired buggy, almost new; body painted black, high seat, painted brown; dark | red running gears. Had brass-trim-, med harness, buckles covered with brass shields. ’I o | RETURN FROM WARSAW. | ' Mrs. E. H. Lyon, department inspec--1 tor of the W. :R. C.. spent several days , ' at Warsaw, the headquarters of the ' state department of W. R. C. While 1 there she was the guest of Mrs. Dr. Lane, and also visited at Winona Lake ' and other points of interest in that vi- ' cinity. She was met at Warsaw by ' Mr. Lyon and they returned home 1 Sunday. : ! ,' The wedding of Samuel Bartlett and i Miss Mozelle Fisher was quietly sol- 1 emnized last Saturday evening at 6 , o'clock at the home of the bride’s par- . ents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Clinton Fisher, on Eleventh street. The Rev. I. Im-. ler, pastor of the United Brethren church, officiated at the wedding, and there was present also, the presiding elder, the Rev. Stanly. The wedding ' was a very beautiful one, the bride, looking especially pretty in a gown of. white silk, becomingly made. Aft [ er the ceremony, a supper was served,' many delicacies appearing on the sumptuously spread table. Guests were, besides the ministers, Mrs. I. Imler, Mrs. Bert Dibble and children, Mrs. Sarah Fisher, Mrs. Lizzie Phipps of North Lewisburg. Ohio. The couple, who are highly esteemed, will make their home in the Kern property ‘ on Seventh street, to which place they ' are moving today. Miss Germaine Christen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Christen, of West Monroe street, invited twentysix little girl friends to make merry : ' with her Saturday afternoon, the oc-, casion being her seventh birthday anniversary. The Christen home was a, gala scene with the little girls, dain-' tilly gowned in white with fluttering , 1 ribbons of pink, white and blue and ; other dainty colors. Games of all kinds, including “ring,” “brush,” and several contests delighted the little ' folks. A doughnut contest was par- ' ticularly delightful. Doughnuts were hung on strings and then the guests, without the use of their hands, tried . to see who could eat the bobbing ' doughnut the soonest. Miss Charlotte Niblick proved to be the most expert and won first honors. In an apple ' contest, Miss Catherine Christen won

first prize, and in a peanut carrying I contest, Ixrnls Connell won the honors. One corner 'of the spacious torch was fitted up as a fishing pond, and from this each guest drew a cunning little souveninr. The porch was also the scene of the luncheon, dainty refreshments being provided. The large birthday cake |n the national colors, adorned with tiny flags and seven twinkling candles was given the place of honor on a table on the porch. Tiny flags were also given as souvenirs. Miss Germain's class mates presented her with a hand some gold bracelet, whose golden circle is symbolic of never-ending love and esteem, and she was also the recipient of several other pretty presents. Those present were Charlotte and Margaret Niblick, Kathleen Hae ling. Catherine Christen, Ireta Beav ers, Florence and Margaret Holthouse, Vergine Smith, Ixiis Connell, Jeanetn Ehinger, Naomi and Marcella Teeplc Margaret Moran, Esther Miller, Velma Ervin, Naomi Durkin, Helen Schuh Charlotte Boyle, Pascaline Smith, Mai garet Mylott, Helen Gass, Lucile Cor bett, Agnes Meyers, Florence Breni erkamp, Eulalia Wenahoff, Dewai <i Wilson, Capitola Hindman. The Helping Hand society of the German Reformed church will be en tertained Wednesday afternoon, bj Mrs. Ed Miller at her home on Sixth street. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Miller of Sixth street gave a delightful dinner party Sunday evening, guests being the Misses Alice Knapp and Faye Smith and Mr. Charles Knapp of Chicago. Mrs. Enos Lord and daughters, Flossie, Marcella and Imogene, of Ft. Wayne were entertained at dinner Sunday by Mrs. Minnie Daniels and family and Miss Margaret Daniels. The Ladies’ Aid society of the Christian church will be entertained Friday afternoon by Mrs. A. M. Anker, on Winchester street. The Christian Woman’s Board of Missions will hold its regular monthly meeting Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Minnie Daniels on Sixth street. Rev. and Mrs. J. M. Dawson and children, James and Frances, were entertained at dinner yesterday by Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Weaver. Mr. and Mrs. Sloan Meyers, residing near this city, had as their guests at dinner Sunday, Walt Murray and ' family of this city, Mrs. Tena Railing of Elkhart and Miss Lydia Thomas of Fort Wayne. The families of John Falk, D. N. Erwin and Fred Falk, the last named 'of Jonesboro, Ark., were entertained at dinner Sunday at the home of Will Falk, who resides on the Falk homei stead. a ~ ; Fred and Tena Schurger gave a party Sunday evening at their home west of the city in compliment to the Misses Georgiana and Ludmilla Lauer of Fort Wayne, who visited here over ( Sunday with Miss Agnes Costello. In pedro, first prizes were won by Ode I Fullenkamp and Fred Colchin, and other games, including out-door games were played, a luncheon being one of ( the pleasing features of the entertainment. Those who enjoyed the evening at the Schurger home, besides the guests of honor, were Amelia Weber, Louise Brake, Ode and Letta Fullenkamp, Lydia Miller, Alice Knapp, Agnes Costello, Rose Colchin, Frances Coffee, Charles Lose, Fred Colchin, Fred Fullenkamp, Leo Webe>-, Herbert Ehinger, Ed Berling, Ed Ban- * man, Edwin Fledderjohann. Word from the St. Joseph's hospital, Fort Wayne, is to the effect that Mrs. J. F. Colchin, who was injured last Wednesday evening in an automo-bile-street car collision, is resting somewhat easier, being conscious and able to speak in a whisper. The outcome of the tccident cannot yet be determined definitely. The regular monthly meeting of the Concord Lutheran Ladies’ Aid society will be held next Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Henry Magley in Monmouth. Mr. and Mrs. John Evans and daughters, Helen and Irene, were entertained at supper Sunday evening by Mr. and Mrs. Will Evans. A happier scene was never witnessed at the Kukelhan country home four miles northeast of the city than that of Sunday evening, when the Misses Emma and Sophia entertained at ii o’clock supper a number of their friends after which the evening was also spent in amusements, of which all were fond. The party included _ C hi 1 dVBiFCry FOR FLETCHER’S KASTORIA

MARY’S CHURCH. ■ Wednesday is the great feast of Portiuncula, a day of special indulgences, and a feast observed throughout the Catliolic world. Portiuncula is the I name of a small, but one of the most • famous chapels of today and situated . near Assissi, Italy, becoming so on account of the memorable and singular indulgences which were obtained ■ through the seraphic St. Francis of s Assissi, for its members in the year I of 1223. The privilege was first en- ; joyed by this church alone, but later s extended to the religious of the Franciscan order, whose founder was St. Francis, and again later to the sis- • ters of the same order. Some years I later the indulgences were granted to I all churches in charge of the Franciscan fathers and remained as such until a year ago, when by a special de- ’ cree of the holy father, Pope Pius X, was granted to -the Catholic world. At the St. Mary’s church confession will . be heard on Tuesday afternoon at 2 t o’clock and in the evening at 7 o’clock, . standard time. Wednesday morning f the masses will be celebrated at 6 • o'clock, sun time, and at 7:30 a plent ary indulgence being granted to those . complying with the intentions of the I pope and making visits during the day ; to the church.
