- l<" oration’ ffay was a sad on» (or Dayton, Ohio, and the world in gener-« • al. when the news was Hashed from j state to state and city to city that Wilbur Wright, one of the Wright broth- s ! era, inventors of the aeroplane, had passed away Thursday morning at 1 3:15 o'clock at the home at Dayton. Ohio, after an illness since Muy 4th from typhoid fever. f When Hie noted patient succumbed • to the burning fever that had been s racking his body for days and nights, . he was surrounded by the members of , his family, which Included his aged fa- ■ her, Biship Milton Wright, Miss Catherine AV right, Orville, the co-inventor . of the aeroplane; Reuchlin Wright . and Loren Wright. All of the family , reside In Dayton, except Reuchlin, who lives in Kansas. ' Wilbur Wright was a Hoosier lad, t being born near Millville, Indiana, ■ April 16, 186*. His education ended i after four years In the Richmond t Ind. I and Dayton (Ohio) hlg'i ’ schools. He was unmarried. Wilbur Wright's Career. For several years In the city of Dayton, 0., Wilbur and Orville Wright' worked to make a machine that would ' fly. The city of Dayton held their se- . i cret because no one thought it was ! worth giving to the outside world, ft I was in 1903 that the news was carried 1 • to Dayton that the Wrights had sue- i 1 ceeded in flying at Kittyhawk, N. j ' It was in 1908 that it was really im- • 1 pressed upon the world that these two | ! sons of Dayton did them honor In a i I big celebration. Since that time the j ' I AV rights and their airships have been ; constantly before the public and the ; two brothers have realized a large | fortune. When Wilbur Wright was eleven i rears old and Orville seven, Bishop I ( Milton Wright of the United Brethi ren church, came and showed his two sons a mechanical toy. AVhen he released it from his hands the two brothers were astounded to see that it did not fall to the floor, but glided about the room. The toy soon was i lost, but the memory of It remained in the minds of the two lads, who were destined to teach the world how to i fly. in 1890. shortly after Wilbur Wilght recovered from an attack of typhoid fever, the two brothers began Ito study flying methods. During th I three following years they made sev- ! eral experiments with gliding maI chines, but they were unable to make : a glider that would support much ' weight until 1902, when they made more than 1,000 successful gliding flights at Kitty Hawk, N. C. In the autumn of th 3 following year they made a machine that supported a man and sailed 2,000 feet. It had been after more than twenty years' experimenting that the Wrights in 1904 sky-fiew six miles in a motorpropelled machine. They knew that their ideas were right, but they made few excursions in the air until 1908, when they made test flights for the i government at Fort Meyer, Va. In i that year Wilbur Wright made his first flight abroad. On August 8, 1909, he flew at Lemans, France, staying in the air one minute and forty-six seconds. Then a Frenchman claimed the world ’s record for time in the air by flying twenty-nine minutes in one flight and thirty-one minutes in another. It was but a few days before Orville Wright, in the United States, ascended in a machine and rtayed clear of the ground for fifty-seven, sixty-two and sixty-five minutes in three successive flights. The accomplishment of the Wright brothers was to perfect glider that sails in the face of the wind. It was constructed with a flying bird in mind and was predicted by Wilbur Wright shortlv before his death that motoiless flying machines were soon to be a practical institution. The Wright bro’hers announced their retirement from giving flying exhibitions about two years ago. After the successful experiment with heavier than air machines in this country the Wrights were accor ed great demonstrations, but were unspoiled by the hero worshippers. Following the successful conquests i of Europe, where homage was paid to| the Wright brothers bv the kings of i several countries, they returned to I this country and continued to achieve problems of flying and to fight patent ; suits and injunctions through the fed-1 eral courts until today their patents i are recognized over the world and th« i Aero Club of America permits no in- i fringements on the rights of the pioneers of aviation. Today no aviation meet can be held without first secur-1 ing the permission of the Wright brothers. They did not abuse the control of the “air trust,” and they* gave permission to the promoters of every meet sanctioned by the Aero Club of America. —o — Me. and Mrs. Gilbert Strickler and sons, Clarence and Robert, and Mrs. Willard Steele and daughter, Leona, have left to attend the services of the Church of God, in sesion at Anderson while others who go each year to attend will leave later. gi

Charles Springer of Allen county had a horse bitten by a rattlesnake, and the veterinarles all gave up the case. He sent for the Indian, White I-oon, son of Kil-so-quah, near Roanoke, and he concocted o potion of herbs and barks, and after one dose the horse recovered. , —o A TITANIC SURVIVOR Will Work in Adams County Fields, Near Linn Grove. j At Fort Wayne last Tuesday, Joseph Walker was talking with Theodore DeMulder, a foreigner, who was j one of tne second-class passengers on the ill-fated Tita-ic, when she sank ■ to the bottom of the deep, says the ' Geneva Herald, and he will be here ! within a few days to work in the beet I fields near Linn Grove. DeMulder can not talk our language, but interpreters I tel! of Iris escape. He was awakened I from sleep when the water was knee | deep in his apartment and he succeeded in freeing himself from his perilous position and swam away from the sinking ship, and was picked up and later conveyed to the Carpathia and landed on American soil with the rest of the survivors. AA'e were shown a picture of a group of three of these rofeigners, all survivors of the Titanic. Many others of these workers were lost. _ 0 POLICE STAR LOST HERE By Fort Wayne Officer Four Years Ago Just Found. Police star, No. 17, lost by Patrolman Brandt at the Decatur fair four years ago, when be was a member of the department for the fi'sl time, has at last been recovered. The star wss found by Frank Miller, 131 Grand street, who never had taken the trouble to turn it over to the departmeu?/ It was learned yesterday that Miller had a star and an officer was sent for it. —Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. o A rather unusual case came up today when L. E. Opliger, county school superintendent, sat as judge in the matter nf the hearing of a portion for the change of location of the Tinkharu school house in Blue Creek towns’..ip. This is an old building and a new one is desired. A petition, signed by the greater number of the patrons askel that the new school house be built more in the center of the distr: t, and this was objected to by a number of remonstrators, who desire to keep it at the old place, which would be more advantageous for them. The hearing was held this morning at the office of the county superintendent, Attorney D. B. Erwin representing the trustee, Frank Wechter. and the petitioners, and J. C. Moran, the remonstrators. Mr. Opliger took the matter under advisement until the first of the week, when he will render his decision. oSKILL GOES UNREWARDED. Because his terrier dog kills on an average of ten rats per day, FrankStreet, 223 Duck Alley, thinks thg canine is a public blessing and objects to paying taxes upon him. When Deputy Assesor John Ryan assessed Street several days ago, the latter became rather indignant. The dog. he ! told the assesor, has killed as high as i a hundred rats a day on the city dump, I where it delights to roam, and because : of this service it should be exemnt from taxation. The dog was assessed. —Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. 0 STORK LEFT BOY. A baby boy was this morning born to Mr. and Mrs. Lenis Meyers, southwest of the city. All doing well. Hon. David E.

Cissell has again gained favor in the eyes of his family and expressed confidence today that the episode with the Indianapolis woman in the Minneapolis hotel would not disrupt his household. His wife, it is said, has accepted his confession and is standing by him. He has three grown children, all of whom sympathize with him. A member of the family said today that they expect to leave Kokomo at once and move to some town where Mr. Cissell will either buy a newspaper or operate a hardware store. It is understood he owns a half interest in a Fort Wayne hardware concern. The many former parishioners cf the Rev. C. C. Cissell are shocked over the news of Bis downfall, as he wps quite popular everywhere. An Anbnnr dispatch saya: "The report that came to this city concerning the ‘fall’ of the Rev. C. C. Cissell of Kokomo, caught in a Minneapolis hotel with an Indianapol’s woman, caused consternation among his mand friends here. He was born and reared in c- :“ intra, five miles northeast of Auburn. His father is B. J. Cissell, a druggist of Corunna for many years." Bluffton Man Lead. It is said that A. B. Cline of Bluffton, who was a delegate to the genI eral conference at Minneapolis, beaded the small delegation to the room j in the Palace hotel, where Cissell and the woman. Mrs. May Roberts, of InI dianapolis, were found. The Bluffton i News says: "A. B. Cline of this city, one of the lay delegates to the general conferJ once, arrived home Thursday night. He did not care to go into lengthy • details in the affair, but he stated that i the story as given in morning disI patches, and as appearing on the first page dispatch in this issue, were not correct in some details. He said that Rev Cissell was not forced to resign, /

and that no charges were filed against him In the court at Minneapolis, and that Rev. Cissell, after his exposure, took the ensuing steps of his own accord, without coersion of any kind. He said Rev. Cissell at cn-e raid ho I hsd no defense to offer. I’.i v. Cissel! left Minneapolis, Mr. Cline says, the morning following the ox| omre. "Mr. Cline when asked the question said that the report was corrett that the police were asked to shadow Cissell. This step was taken after Cissell had been seen with the woman and fell under suspicion. Rev. Cissell had taken quarters, it is said, In what is known as the "red light” district. Mr. Cline says that when he and others, headed by the jmlice, went to Cissell's room, the latter did appear with a cigar in one hand, and the woman was attired as described in dispatches. Mr, Cline says he saw only two beer bottles in the room. They were standing on a table, and were only partially emptied. "Rev. Cissell has returned to his home at Kokomo. He Is the father of three children, the youngest a girl of seventeen.” The Kokomo Dispatch says: “The superintendency of the Logansport district carries with ft a salary of approximately $3,000 a year. It was believed last night that the Rev. M. S. Marble of Montpelier had been appointed to succed Dr. Cissell. The Rev. W. W. Martin of the High street church, Muncie, was present, ft is said, when the resignation of Dr. Cissell was conveyed to the bishop of the Cincinnati jurisdiction. It is said that it was then determined that the Rev. Marble would be appointed. Information to this effect was given to W. O. Trabue, who made inquiry concerning the superintendent who would officiate at the quarterly conference in Tipton Sunday.” o The claseis of the German Reformed church entered upon its third day's work with several important prob- ■ lems up before the session for disposal. Morning Session. Student Otto Scherry of Magley i opened the session with a short serv- : ive, after which the outline of work wa sagain taken up. One of the . principal questions up before the committee, which has been confronting the church for some time previous was the question of the organic union of the Presbyterian church with the Reformed Church of the United States in America. After a long and well considered debate it was decided that the time for this union had not come but earnestly expressed themselves and urged that articles of federation be strictly enforced. Other business was taken up and disposed of, as the committee saw fit, and was able to discharge. Following this afternoon's session at 4 o’clock, a number of the congregation, wltji automobiles, took the visiting ministers on a tour of flip city, and iatei to the name of Herman Sellemoyer in Washington town ship, where they will be royal'y entertained at supner and otherwise. Friday Afternoon. The work or Friday afternoon was more of usual routine work. The first matter up was the receiving of an application to preach of student Otto Scherry of Magley ,who has completed his theological course at their Sheboygan, Wisconsin, seminary. He will be given a charge at Garrett to' look after for the present. Ihe Garrett church, which at the present time, is carrying a heavy debt, and unable to pay it off without assistance, was taken up by the classis, and after discussion, it was arranged that the different congregations take the debt upon themselves, and eac': congregation assessed according to its membership, and the payments to be made at the Pentecost time. Student Philip Volmer of the Miami classis was transferred to the local one, and licensed to preach. Arrangements will also be made for his ordination and installation at the Salem church, Fort Wayne, after examination by the committee, composed of the Rev. Ruf of Fort Wayne, Rev. Hessert of this city, and Mathias Kirsch, also of this city. The Rev. Schneider gave a report on religion and statistics, which showed that a remarkable increase in membership was noted, and also in the funds donated for benevolent purposes. Mr. Kirsch, the treasurer, gave his report of the parish Friday evening, which j also was of great interest, and showed the excellent condition of the church and the progress made during the year. The classis took upon itself the duty to help raise a $20,000 fund for the Sheboygan seminary and has already paid in $”.824. To the jubilee fund, which is also being raised they have contributed $2,05i), and to a subscription thew will by this fall have paid in $4,000. A report on this jubilee fund was given by the Rev. Kattman of Berne, which i was also of great interest as well as the other reports read. The classis will be brought to a close on Sunday and the services for the day will ■ • . >i. .-

be as follows: Sunday school at 9:30 a. m., and the different classes will be in charge of the visiting ministers. Student Philip Volmer will at this time give i tin address to the Sunday school. Ccuntnunron service, 10:30. Rev ■ Dlehm of Huntington, who was to j have spoken, was called home to oflli elate at a funeral of a member of his congregation, and Rev. Bosch v.vll, In his stead, speak on communion. 6:45 p. m., Christian Endeavor. Rev. Kattman will give the address. At 7:30 p. m., and the closing service, a missionary service will be held, with a sermon to be delivered by the Rev. Schrorer of Vera Cruz. o The warm weather of Friday evening had no effect on the large and attentive audience wmeh was present for the musical recital given at the Knights of Columbus hall by the pinils of the Academy of Music of the Sisters of St. Agnes. The K. of *' home was filled to the doors nnd the program of seventeen renditions was highly received with feeling, touch and technic, and each demonstrated for herself that long and careful study was required to reach the high pitch of Friday evening. The program was opened with a vocal duet by the Misses Adella and Esther Sellemeyer and was an appropriate number for the evening. Silver Chimes, a piano duet, by Estella Braun and Matilda Heimann, was a rendition most beau- , tlful, and their excellent musical chords brought applause from the large and appreciative audience. A vocal solo by Gregg Neptune with Mrs. J. Q. Neptune as accompanist, was also highly interesting, and was , followed by a piano solo by Miss Esther Sellemeyer. A Japanese song and dance by Charlotte and Margaret Niblick was one of the best of the evening’s program. Both were but mere tots, dressed in gowns of pink, of Japanese flower design, and a fan suitable for the occasion. Great applause was brought from the audience, and difficult work was shown in th° accomplishment of this number. A piano duet by Lanrine Keller and Esther Evans was well given, ft preceding n vocal quartet of the rosary. ' by Mesdam a s L. Holthonse, J. Selle. ' meyer, J. Q. Neptune and Miss *•' Niblick. The piano solo of Miss Marie Kintz proved to be a very difficult piece and the many present expressed their appreciation by an encore for a second number. Our Last lesson. The Horn. The Little Boy Blue, a song by Margaret Moran, accompanied bv Charlotte Niblick, was pleasingly rendered, and who chanced about with Chariotte singing Pretty Little Butterfly,” and Margaret at the piano. This filled the hall with laughter, and war one of the most enjoyable rendition:: O s evening. The piano solo r* 1 Mrs T O Vnrtunn n-J n’ann ni:a tet by N. Niblick, A. Kohne, E. Sell meyer and M. Kintz, were good, v was the most difficult solo given tMiss Germaine Coffee. Sing Me t Sleep, vocal soln by Mr. Eastwool accompanied by Mrs. Eastwood at th piano, and Nacmi Niblick on the sax phone, appealed much to the audien Miss Agnes Kohne rendered a difl i cult piece, followed with one of eip interest by Naomi Niblick. A plar quartet by the Misses E. Braun, Heiman. L. Keller and E. Evans, wr.'- j beautiful, followed with a Dutch sor. , by a ladies’ quartet, comprising Me dames T.. A. Holthouse, J. Sellemeye J. Q, Neptune and Misses Marie Kin and Esther Sellemeyer, and accom panted by the Misses N. Niblick ar E. Evans. Father Wilken, after a few remarkpresented gold medals to the six grad nates, who have completed their r> quired course, they being Misses Stella Braun, Matilda Heimann, Esther Sellemeyer, Laurine Keller, Esthe r Evans nnd Marie Kintz. They we—also presented with their diplomas enlarged. Father Wilken then than" ing the people for their attendance and the interest and appreciate shown during the rendering oft! program, brought the recital to close. Following the evening of mus ; the six graduates entertained a number of their friends at a reception giv en at the hall, which was also enjoyed by many until a late hour. The evening was one of the mon pleasant in the history of the academy and the sisters are to bo con gratulatod upon the big’ll success which the many pupils have attained through their untiring labors.
