LIFE WAS EXTINCT CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE return to his home. He was titty-sev-en years of age and leaves a sorrowing, aged mother, a loving wife and two children—a son,. Herman and daughter, Marie; also four brothers — Father Kuebler of Shelby. Ohio; Jos- ! eph of Tiffin. Ohio; Herman, of Tole- ! do, Ohio; and three sisters —Mrs. Alice Henzy of Tiffin, and Emma and Frances, at home.

Fred Reppert, the auctioneer, returned home this morning after an absence of some weeks, and was the principal cryer at the Nidlinger hog Bale today. Clem Heidemann, who suffered the amputation of several fingers, following an accident while working at the Geneva glove factory nearly two weeks ago, is improving slowly, but as well as could he expected. The hand is very’ sore and tender from the large, open wound received, and causes him great inconvenience and trouble. Although doing as well as could be expected, it will require much time before it can be freed from the sling and used willingly. Otto H. Hell of 1453 Broadway, in Brooklyn, obtained permission of County Judge Grant in Brooklyn, to change his name to "Hill.” He said he had been subjected to humiliation because of the jibes and jeers of his acquaintances on account of his name, and he cited instances in which he had been addressed as "O. Hell.” The

George Woods, arrested here Saturday by Sheriff Durkin and taken back to Centerville. Mich., by the sheriff of , that county, was a former resident of j Portland. The Portland Sun says of j him: “Woods has already served or ? | term in the .Michigan City penitentiary tor petit larceny, having been convict - eel of stealing a watch from Mrs. Mari tha Sharp, an aged and feeble-mind ied woman of this city. It was Woods j I that caused the affidavits, to be filed! I against Herbert Long and wife,; I charging them with selling liquor ! without license and he left Portland ; without waiting to appear against ? Long.”

LOOKS LIKE REAL. A unique and especially attractive i advertisement was placed in the win- I i dow of Myers & 'Dailey clothing store ' I this morning in the way of a large lion j to represent the Lion brand of collars. ; T'o look at it, one would think it real, I from the first glance, it being so neatly 1 gotten up and arranged to possess all the effects of life. The lion is of the ' usual size, long, and the very picture j of the king of beasts, and with the' ' nodding of its head, and surroundings of hay or grass in one corner, makes the advertisement complete in every respect. Strips of black tape runnin;: up and down the window acts as cage bars, producting more convincing facts of a caged beast. It is well worth seeing and if you have not as yet taken a "peak" in the window, do so before he breaks out. ABOUT THE SICK Mrs. Marion Reber is sick with symptoms of typhoid fever. Lewis Goldner. aged resident of Kirkland township, suffered a fracture of the collar bone and a dislocation of his arm in a fall from the hay mow of his barn, while getting down. A son, Fred, is just recovering from a siege of typhoid fever, from which at I one time it was thought he could not I recover, and now two other sons. Eli and Dallas, are sick with the same d'sense.
