C. L. WALTERS, 48t4 Commissioner. —o Decatur friends will be pleased to hear of the coming wedding of Miss Edith Porter, a former Decatur young lady, who has been a resident as Chanute, Kans., for the past year. Her marriage will take place on Thursday of this week, on Thanksgiving Day, the groom being a Mr. Colaw. a well known young business man of Chanute, Kans. The wedding, however, will take place at St. James, Minn., at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. J. W. Shanks, and will be a quiet, home wedding, no other members of either of the bride’s or groom s families being witnesses. Mr. and Mrs. Colaw will make their home on the groom’s farm near Chanute, although he is also engaged in business in the "ity. Miss Porter went from here to Chanute a year ago, with her brother, Clarence Porter, and family, and her mother, and while there has been employed as stenographer. She has a host of Decatur friends who will unite in advance in extending their very best wishes. RIDE WAS SHORT. A tramp giving his name as Robert i Ellis, and his home as Newark, New I Jers'ey, was arrested by G. A. Lenz, a Grand Rapids and Indiana railroad detective, Saturday afternoon when he attempted to ride the northbound passenger train out of this city. As the train was leaving the station the man was seen to swing himself under a car onto the truss rods. The railroad officer gave the man into the charge ■ of local police and he was locked in I the citv prison. Lter he was released ion a promise to get out of town. He | told the officers that he was out of j employment, but had recently been a railroader and was trying to reach bis home. He said that he had expected to ride from here to Decatur and from there take the Erie railroad east. — Portland Commercial Review. I Benjamin T. Corkwell, motorman on the extra limited car which, running light, crashed into a loaded interurj ban at tne Kingsland curve on the Fort Wayne ana Northern Indiana in , September, 1910, killing 41 people, ■ which tragedy drove him insane, has | been discharged from the Easthaven ' hospital for the insane at Richmond where he has been since recovering from his injuries. Corkwell is now with his wife and child, which was born soon after the tragedy, at Mun cie. Dr. Brown, superintendent of Easthaven, stated last night that the ex-motorman, who is charged with the blanks for the fatal collision, has not been fully released, but his re covery at the institution has been very rapid. He is on a furlough pending a return of his affliction or else complete recovery. @

a- Corkwell was found of unsound n- mind by a justice commission before 11 he left the hospital here, where he had been kept under charge of an ofe. fleer. He would probably have faced a- a criminal charge of manslaughter e ’ had he escaped Easthaven. That Cork well had been released from the hospital for the insane first became known here yesterday when he brought suit through a Muncie At'l torney, J, Frank Mann, to enjoin the Employees’ Mutual Benefit AssociaL tion of the Fort Wayne & Northern Indiana Traction company from continuing business, alleging that it is 1 collecting benefit and insurance assessments in violation of the state e laws and without right. The ex-mo-il torman also asks S9O, which he claims •f is due him in accident benefits as a result of his Injuries In the fatal collision. J The superintendent of the hospital d for the insane said last night to the Journal-Gazette reporter that Corkp well is living in retirement. His coni, dition is not such that he is able to :■ work. The local traction company s declares that Corktwell has not been in their employ nor recognized as such since the wreck and that, therefore, he nas no claim for benefits. — Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. j Mr. C. M. McLain, president of the Holland-St. Louis Sugar company; I Mr. George E. Kollen. attorney for the ? corporation, of Holland. Michigan; Mr. F. H. Hubbard, of St. Louis, Mich., ' manager of the new plant to be built here; Mr. F. E. Larrowe, the contractor, and Mr. A. Schoen, his assistant, of' Detroit arrived here Tuesday a. m. ■ to complete arrangements for the im- • mediate building of the handsome and ' complete sugar factory, best equipped ! and most modern concern of the kind i in the world. Attorney Kollen spent I the day with Attorneys Heller, Sut- ' ton & Heller, and Schirmeyer and 1 Quinn, of the Bowers Realty company in straightening out the kinks in the abstract so that a clear title to the ' property may be given. The contractors and Messrs. McLain and Hubbard spent the morning at the site, planning the grounds and this afternoon, joined by Messrs. Wagner and Hudson of the G. R. & 1. railroad, they worked over the blue prints in the parlors of the Murray hotel, locating the various buildings, the railroad switches, wells, etc. It is the desire of these men to close up the business, preliminary to real work at the grounds today, after which the land will be deeded to the company and the details will then be completed. The railroad will have the main sidetrack in within a few days, and the material for the new buildings will begin arriving. Mr. Hubbard, who will have charge of the Decatur plant, will remain over for a day or two, to look after matters tor the company. When the deed for the property is given to the Holland-St. Louis company they will under the corporation seal, turn over a certificate showing that they have contracted for the erection of a 700-800 ton sugar plant to be erected at thi. place.

It will be a part of the regular school work and those taking the lessons will be given due i credit. There will be only the one lesson each week. The gas company provided the necessary outfit as well as the teacher, and the class will do their work at the offices of the Indiana Lighting company on Monroe street. In all well regulated schools j domestic science is now being taught and the addition of this department here will be gladly received and will no doubt prove a popular one for the young ladies. What is bei:«ved to have beeu a' party of at least five yeggmen pried I off the door of the Monroe State bank Tuesday morning about 1:30, and after gaining entrance, blew off the door of the vault with nitro glycerine, and using a chisel, broek- eight safetydeposit boxes, but were apparently i frightened away before accomplishing | their purpose of robbery, as M. S. I Leichty, cashier of the bank, stated this morning that it was his belief that not a dollar is missing. The burglars frightened away were seen going toward the G. R. & I. railroad at 2:30 o'clock, where a northbounu freight halted, but did not stop entirely, and it is believed the burglars boarded the train and were taken north. Officers all along the line were notified to be on the look-out and will no doubt apprehend the guilty parties soon. The affair is one of the boldest in this vicinity in years, and savors very much of the “genuine” ones we read about in novels. The bank building It located on Jackson street, a halfblock east of the G. R. & I. railroad. There is only one building between the bank and that occupied by John Badders, one of Monroe’s busines men. Mr. Badders sleeps over his * store, and was one of the first to be awakened by the noise made by the burglars. Mr. Badders immediately investigated, by putting his head out of his upstairs window, and firing a few shots to give the alarm to the citizens. His shots were met by a request from a voice in the darkness below “to put his d head back inside the window if he didn't want to get it shot off,” the voice substantiating its remark by firing. Mr. Badders then ran to the window at the front of his building, where the same occurrence took place, as the yeggmen had left j a man at both the rear and front o. the bank as watchmen, and a mar. | standing across street. In the meantima John : locker, who lives across the street from the bank, also heard the noise and going to the telep>onbooth a few step away, notified Marshal Samuel Martz, and the bank officials, including President M. F. Parrish, Vice President W. L. Keller, Cashier M. S. Leichty and Assistant Cashier W. S. Smith, who at once hur-1 ried to the bank. Upon their arrival there, however, the found that the yeggmen had fled. Mr. Hocker stated that he noticed them going toward the railroad just as an extra freight, northbound, was pulling in. The train slowed down, but did not stop, and it was the belief that the men got on and departed for the north. ' The tools used by the burglars belonged to tbe G. R. & I. section hands and were secured from the hand car - house at the railroad. The house was broken open and a crow-bar, a nick, hammer, chisel and a mankey wrench - were among the tools taken, these being afterward found on the floor of the bank, where they were left by the - burglars. It is believed that the party included the two watchmen — left, one at the rear and the other at the front -of the building—and at least three i who worked inside the bank. The 1 front door of the bank had been liters ally burst open, or pried off, the lock i being broken and a piece of the door ■- splintered off. Sheriff Durkin, who went to the i, scenr of the burglary this morning, , gave ’ very clear account of the ap-

i iwreut action of the burglars after; i they bad gained entrance to the bank. The vault stands at the rear of the ■ main room and about the middle of. the bank) building. He stated that' ■ they had used bees wax or soap, ■ which they melted and placed about the combination In the form of a trough. In this trough was put the ; nitro-glycerine or other explosive. which burst or broke the lock to the i vault door. The soap or beeswax. from the force of the explosion, spat-1 ■ tered up the entire wall and ceiling. Once inside trie vault, the hundred of more steel safety deposit boxes were there awaiting (heir opening. They Inserted in one. through the key-hole, some notro-glycerlne, and succeeding i in opening it in this way. They first did this in order to learn the nature ‘ of the boxes, and finding in this way that they could be opened with the chisel, used the chisel in forcing open : the other seven. The documents and papers belonging to various Individuals, and kept in these, were not destroyed. Within the double vault, is also a large Victor burglar-proof safe, which shows no signs of molestation.' except the loss of a screw. It is said > that a large amount of money was in j the vault, the exact amount of which | the bank officials refused to divulge, for publication, and had the burglars ( accomplished their purpose they i would have made a rich haul. i Mr. and Mrs. Badders stated this: morning that the crew was a very j noisy one. They hammered and pounded as much as the workmen did ! in making the new bank building, and ( cursed and swore and did not attempt ' to keep the matter a secrecy. Mr.. Badders did his best to give the alarm. ’ but having a revolver with only four ■ shots, and heeding the command of; ■ the burglars to put his head back in ■ the window, he decided that it was I best to obey. He was also in line with no telephone communication.

Friedman, of the government Indian school here, and which is the result of thorough investigation c..- ( tending into every phase of aboringri ( life and into all regions of the count rj where the red man now has his habl j tat. “There is a great gap between the aboriginal American of the days of, Longfellow and Cooper, with primi tiveness and savagery surroundin, him, and the Indian of today,” the report reads. “The modern Indian ha put aside petty warfare and inter-

Hundreds of Indians have left the reservation and are taking their place in white communities as respected citizens and competent workmen. They are in the professions, fa the 'trades, in tbe busy parts of commercial life, in the government service and some of the most honored ' missionaries in the Indian field have Indian blood and were trained and ■ educated in the government schools.’’ | Graduates from the Carlisle school, declares Superintendent Friedman have had a very large share in the ’ work of rejuvenating and civilizing their race. “Records which have been gathered with great care and at much labor of the activity of the Indians since the termination of their school career," he says, “have vindicated the ’ far-sighted wisdom of the government in giving the Indians a thorough com-mon-sense education. The educated Indians are in the van of progress. They are among the leaders of their race, and are rapidly being afforded that recognition which every life worthily lived is bound to receive.” The records show that one of the most successful enterprises the gov- ! eminent conducts in connection with ' the Indian service is the work of finding employment for the Indians, both I young and old. The system is an out- • growth of the outing system at Carlisle. It was inaugurated and conducted by Charles E. Dagenett, a Peoria Indian and a Carlisle graduate. Last year under the department of employment, the Indians earned $3’4,- , 783,40. " ' * *' 11 • TROUBLE FOR A SALESMAN. looms up if his health runs down. That’s why E. E. Youngs of E.
