The field Is free from weeds and will develop a dandy big crop. Several beets being pulled for the test weighed a pound and a half. Fanners in that locality should watch the Koeneman beet crop. It is being handled carefully and should be a producer. o Invoice of the heavy and excellent stock of the Fred Schaub hardware store began Wednesday preparatory to the forming of a new firm. Mr. Will Dowling having purchased an inI terest in this, one of the leading mercantile establishment* of the city Mr. Dowling, who has been associated with the Citizens' Telephone company for several years, recently resigned , hi* position there to enter business for himself, and is well versed in al! the business principles that will make his career in this new Undertaking a most successful one. He will take poseseiun August Ist and will give all bi* time to his new work. Mr. Schaub, the senior member of the firm, is a man thoroughly versed in the hardware business, having had fifteen years' experience in such. Prior to coming here from Union Citv thr«-« years ago. he was traveling salesman for the Laman Carey company of InI dianapdis. He engaged in business here with A. A. Gotten.oiler, with whom he was associated until last January first, and since that time he has been the sole proprietor of this large and excellent hardware establishment. Finding the increase in business too much for himself, be has found it necessary to take a partner.

Ind, July SO—(Special to Daily Democrat i—According to Will Hale* own private record, he «a* abort at tbe Bank of Geneva to the amount of $11,€90 The key was found Friday, when Mrs Hale brought to the bask a little account book, in which was written the number* of the certificate* and the amount of each one. In the book also was written a note that he had cash items at the bank amounting to about $290, that is he had taken out caah and made a cath slip of it. Ths note told where thl* would be found. It had. however, been located According to Mr Hale's account of the transaction he had marked paid thirty-five different certificate* during the year pest, these teing used to take up certificates on which he had previously realized the coney The smallest is for 1100. and there are seven for that amount. Seven are for S2OO, six for $-“•». one for 1350. three for $409, six for s‘Oo. one for 9'20, one for 1010. and one each for S6OO, s7off and l«00. It is believed that these figures will prove accurate and correct as it was necessary for Mr Hale to keep an exact copy of his transaction* that he might get by with it. He had enough personal and real property. Including hi* life insurance at it* loan value to settle all he owed and it is thought that he became frightened when the certificates were demanded and decided to end lhe affair. The amount as shown by Mr. Hale'* books is practically the same as the total made by the examiners, w ho. however, added enough to cover everything, sc that an additional assessment would not be necessary.
