When Whittman’s attention wns , called to charges of the police that they "had turned Rose up," he sneered and said, "Yes, when I made it very plain that they had to get this man they sent word to him to come to headquarters, but they didn’t tell him that charges of murder would be launched against him. I don t believe Rose was actually present at the murder.

The triple birthday anniversary I of Thursday in honor of Mr and Mrs. Abraham Deßolt and their grandson, ' Clarence Stevens, was a complete sue- ' cess. The affair was a surprise for the aged couple and it was not until the many relatives and friends gathered at their home east of the city Thursday that they had the least idea of the Intended celebration A general social mingling and reunion was in order and at noon a sumptuous dinner was served on tables on the lawn. A birthday cake, pretty to look at, as well as delicious to the taste, occupied the place of honor on the table. While the birthday anniversaries do not come on the same date, they come so nearly together that all were remembered in the celebration at this time, and all were accorded the heartiest good wishes of all Mr. DeBolt was seventy-three years of age, and his good wife, seventy-one Those present were Rev. and Mrs G.

The cool of the morning, before the ■ busy hum of the day's affairs have begun, was the time chosen this morning at 5 o’clock by a merry party of girls who took a five-mile walk 'cross country in a westerly direction, and when they arrived at the fine grove • in that vicinity, were quite ready for I the tempting feast which they took I with them to break their fast. The i party comprised Miss Ruth Gleiser of ; Watseka, Ill.: the Misses Naomi Du- . gan, Gretel Shoemaker, Lillian Rice, . Florence Meyers. — ■■ ■ ~o ■ ■ The prevailing custom of seeking to suppress legitimate nevrs items has about exhausted the patience ■ of most newspaper publishers in this country, says an exchange. There is no logical reason why such news should not be published regardless ■ of the persons concerned. The fellows who get into trouble never give a thought about their mothers or their sisters until after their sins . have been found out and then they rush to a newspaper reporter—who, as a rule, they never before considered worth being treated civilly—and on bended knees, tears in their eyes, and slobbers on their lips, beg to be spared the notoriety which they htive so richly merited. About this tijne they are dreadfully concerned about their poor mother or their supersensitive sister. This class of fellows are not worthy of consideration. They are cowards in the first place, or they would stand up like men, make the most of a bad matter, and make amends for the past by future good behavior. As for the dear old mothers and sisters, they need not be worried, for no one whose opinion amounts to as much as a yellow dice, will censure the good old mother cr sister, or even the old man and the brothers for the misdoings of some black sheep. Os course relatives dislike to see the name of their kin in print in an unfavorable light. Neither do they like to see him in jail, but sometimes it becomes necessary to put them there, and when ther acts warrant their arrest, they should also receive the publicity that is due them. If you do not make news that is unfavorable to you the newspaper will have nothing of the kind to publish, but if you persist in making it then you must expect to stand in the spotlight of publicity occasionally. If there is any disgrace it is in the actions of the parties themselves, not in the publication of the facts. The

people pay for the news and It Is a i publisher's duty to get it If he can. Every subscriber to a newspaper takes the paper, not to see what has i been supressed, but to ascertain the facts concerning what 1s going on In his home town and abroad, and it is an implied obligation on the part of the publisher to furnish the readers all the Information possible o OBITUARY. William B. Hale, subject of this sketch, was born in Bluffton, Ind., February 25, 1870. He departed this life at his home in Geneva, Ind., July . 15, 1912, at the age of 42 years, ti months and 19 days. He was married i to Miss Nellie Clawson May 27, 1894. To this union was born three children, 1 Helen, Mary and William. His wife having preceded him in death on February 20, 1909, he again united in mar- . riage November 23, 1910, to Mrs. Alice ; Heeter.

He was a hard-working man, having held his position in the Bank of Geneva for sixteen years, with only one brief vacation. He was much devoted to his home and did much to make happy the loved ones of his family Christian A. Tresselt, aged 88 years ten months and fifteen days, the oldest business man of Ft Wayne, head of City Mills, is dead at his home in Ft. Wayne. Mr. Tresselt is known to many here. Death resulted from old age and came peacefully to the pioneer. Up until ten days ago, he had been able to attend to his duties at the offices of the City Mills and at that time was apparently in the best of health. He was a native of Thurungia, Germany, where he was born September 3, 1823, his father August Ludwig Tresselt, being an artist. Christian A. Tresselt, the son engaged in mercantile business in Germany until twenty-two years ago when he came to America. After fifteen months in New York, he came to Ft. Wayne, where he later became proprietor of the City Hour Mills. He was married in Ft. Wayne to Miss Elizabeth Siemon, who died ten years ago. Three sons; Otto W., Herman <’., and Frederick., all of whom have been identified with the father in the flour business, survive. The funeral will be held privately, Saturday afternoon at the residence. o F. M. Schirmeyer, president of the “Old Home Week" association this morning received word from Governor Marshall that he had received the invitation to speak here during the big week in October, and while he is unable at this time to make any dates, awaiting the demands of the national committee, he said he expected to make as many speeches in Indiana as possible and might he able to come here. It is hoped that he can do so, not for any political purpose but as the governor of the state. Other arrangements are be- , ing completed for the occasion. The board of managers held their regular meeting last night and prepared for further advancement of the event. The advertising committee will get busy at once and the week will be well advertised. Banners, will be placed across the street and various forms of bills and circulars distributed. The invitation committee will soon issue their invitations. H. J. Yager, chairman of the committee on amusements announced the other members, including Will L. Lehne, O. L. Vance, Henry Thomas and C. S. Niblick. They will go to Fort Wayne today on their first trip and will try to secure some of. the attractions now being shown at the Buffalo carnival there. One of the features of the week is to be a museum, at which will be shown as many relics of special interest as possible. This feature and as many others as possible will be free. o— In round numbers 3,100,000,000 bushels of corn were harvested in the United States three years ago, and, by a curious coincidence, the number of bushels was approximately the same as the money value of our entire international commerce, measured in dollars. Since that time this commerce has been increasing, where as not so many bushels of corn have been harvested in any year since the record com crop was made. The crop experts employed by the government forecast a harvest of 2,811,900,900 bushels of corn this year. But the record which is to be made by our international commerce in the present calendar year, will, unless Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA

there be a great slump In the fall probably be in excess of the $40,000,000,000 money value. We are commanding foreign trade more rapidly than we ar«? growing corn. If the comparison be made in this way. It has been pointed out that the government's estimate of the com crop, made public on Tuesday, was in great measure made before recent favorable climate conditions prevailed over the corn belt. Therefore, unless there should be scorching heat and protracted drought the probabilities are that the harvest of corn this year will approximate 3,000,009,000 bushels. 0 — The work at the new Monroe street bridge is going along in spite of being handicapped by the high waters, although not as rapidly as otherwise, and as desired by the contractor. The water which had been receding since the heavy rains of Saturday evening, took a foot or more rise durig the night, fro.n a heavy rain which is reported as south of here. The river 's still far from being at its normal stage, and several days will be necessary until the swollen creeks are emptied and their usual level readied. The work at the bridge is now giving the people a more complete Idea as to how the lower part will look, the form for the east arch, with the abutment in the center of the river, having been completed, and other minor things done so as to continue work when the water falls enough to permit the workmen to go ahead. Crowds of people visit the scene each day to keep themselves posted with the progress of the bridge and to watch the work of the men in charge of the improvement. It will be a beauty upon completion and one of the handsomest spans to be found in the state. o .. - ATTENDED EXHIBIT. Dick Meyers has returned from a several days' stay in Chicago, where Xc* -F-'X.
