"bose wife was formerly Miss jvarl Hurdg of this city, is secretary-! tourer of the order, and that C. W. 1 Smith of Geneva, is division assistant ieerttary. The letter follows: Decoration Day is near at hand, and while there has been no federal legisfaUon regarding the observance of the[ 4,7 yet It is very Important to the! Vnlteil States, and truly slgniflcant of th, American people. Ever since March 5, 1868. when General John A. Logan, then commandermchief of the Grand Army of the Repbllc. issued an order fixing May 30 as the dV for strewing with flowers the graves of the dead soldiers, It has! been faithfully observed and now J many of the states have made It a legal holiday. What more Atting serv- 1 w of the living soldiers, their wives, ions and daughters, together with al pateful republic could be performed [ than that of journeying to the graves of the departed veterans on May SO, and In loving remembrance strew flowers and plant the flag of the republic there? Every patriotic citizen has come to reverence the day, and he who has in his mind and heart any of I the high ideals of our glorious republic I and knows the sacrifices and sufferings ! which it took to preserve for us our union, peace and prosperity, will ever ■ told it sacred and remember to keep j it Surely no son of a veteran will ever be found wanting in this respect! As we are the common recipients of the heroic love and devotion of the fathers 1 of the country and the sharers of the | exalted blessings of a united republic we are naturally constrained to obierre the day and defend It against I the encroachments of the wicked an 11 the thoughtless. Surrounded by the hallowed memories of the past, it is next to impossible to believe that any citizen of the union would willingly desecrate memorial day. and yet it is not improbable that for a passing pleasure or the great greed of gain (Love of money being the root of the evil > there will be speedways established on the day and base ball games and sports and pleasure resorts tr which the patronage of the public is ikvited. This may be th® age of commercial-[ ism, for commercialism is rampant, but far be it from us that the fires of true patriotism should grow dim or the memorials which our fathers have set be torn down and Memorial day become a thing of the past. We must observe and defend our patriotic days! We must instruct and we must educate lest we forget! It is by a deep consideration of that which has gone before us and a true inspiration of the past that we get unto ourselves greater moral strength and a proper cours*e for the present and the exigencies of the future. My brother ministers of the gospel, we have done much in the past from the pulpits of our beloved land to enlarge the spirit of patriotism, and we can still do much more. Every pulpit, in the land should, and I believe it I will, resound with good words of pa-1 triotism on Memorial Sunday, May 25. The press is eager to publish the best thoughts on patriotism from our pulPita, and all lovers of home and native land will rejoice in reading them.' My brother Sons of Veterans, we *re organized to perpetuate the sacrifices made by our fathers in the ■naintenanr e of the union, and on May Wwe have a great duty to perform which w e ail esteem a very high privl'e?e, it is that of respecting our fath*B > and in love remembering all the departed comrades by strewing flowers upon their graves. We have a mission and should show to the living vet- ’ craw and the nation that we are ’orthy the confidence tnd trust imposed in us. As chaplain of the Indiana division, ®° Bs of Veterans, I ask you to see to 11 that our fathers who are living are °ot only permitted but actually assisted in the performance of the sweet, '■oleum duties of Decoration Day. By tl>e lecrifices of our fathers which was e 'cn unto death, and the devotion of our mothers which was anxieties and cartaches worse than death, and by e love of home and the exalted blesslng! of these United States, I hereby ur Ke every- camp in the Indiana divisM to turn out in force on May 30, and •Mist In every way possible in the ob•orrance of the day.

Such was the substance of a statement made yesterday | afternoon by the Hon. C. J. Lutz when | he gave a most excellent and practical, address to the boys and girls who have completed the eighth grade studies of. the city schools and received diplomas [ entitling them to pass into the high > school. The exercises were held at the Pres-1 .byterian church at 2:30 o'clock and | were well attended. Prof. E. S. Christen, principal of the grades, presided.After a song, Scheumann's “The Happy iFarmer’’ given by the class under the' direction of Miss Bess Schrock, Miss 'Pearl Lyon gave the bright little address of welcome. | She likened this period of their lives to the spring-tide, and said that this season for them was nearly closed and they were about to pass into | the early summer period. She ask'ed that the program, their little spring flowers be received as products of the spring-time of their lives. Franz Liszt’s Hungarian Dance, 2nd Rhapsody was a piano duet well given Iby Miss Mildred Strebe and Robert 'Colter This was followed by an Italian folk-song given by the class entitled ’’Santa Lucia.” Preceding the adi dress of Mr. Lutz, was a piano trio 'very well given by the Misses Mary Fuhrman, Eva Augenbaugh and Dons ■ De Voss. I Mr Lutz’s address which was short: but pointed, contained many practical, words of advice to the young boys and girls who stand on the threshold of the high school, and at the threshold of a new period In their life. Just as e verv successful business man, or professional man. takes an inventory ar the close of each year, so he adv s ed the boys and girls to take an I m ventory of their past seven or eigb aii things that should school years.

TEAM RUNS AWAY. Water Wagon Horses Ttake Sudden Notion to do Some Stunts. While John Barnett, driver of the l water wagon, was making a connection at the plug on the corner of Monroe and First streets this morning the , big black team decided to take matters in their own hands and started to run a race west on Monroe street. They got along very well, missing a few buggies by a fraction of an inch, [until they ran up against a wagon belonging to Gerhart Kohne, which was sitting in front of the Smith plumbing shop. The tongue of the water wagon struck the rear end of the farm wagon with such force that it twisted th© heavy bed and broke one of the standards. The stop was made I so quickly that it threw one of the horses on its knees and skinned them up considerably. An important meeting of the stockholders of the Ft. Wayne & Springfield Railway company is being held in this city this afternoon. The meeting was called for the offices of the traction company, but so many responded to the notice that after opening there the meeting was transferred Ito the offices of the Bowers Realty : company, where they are still in session. It is the belief of J. H. Koenig, iW. H. Fledderjohann and others back iof the movement that the present deal will result In the financing of the road and its immediate extension south, provided an agreement of the stockholders can be secured today, which seems probable. It is the claim that New’ York Interests have agreed to furnish the sum of $900,000 in cash, less whatever per cent discount shall be agreed [upon, taking therefor first mortgage 1 bonds. Os this sum, $600,000 must be ’used to extend the road south, while the balance would be used in paying claims proratio. O nadditional $600,1000 in second mortgage bonds will 'then b e issued under the plan, with iwhich to take care of all claims and lines. Th e dea is that each claim [ represents the real amount of money ( (expended in securing them that there I shall be no inflation of stock I For all claims and bonds (the same amount of bonds shall be isI sued while for all stock therein the ! holder shall receive second mortgage | bonds in the sum of sixty cents on the dollar. If the deal goes through the line will be extended to Portland at' once. It is quite probable that even . if this actibn is decided upon the sale . as petitioned for and ordered by the, court for June sth will take place, In [ order that the new company may I have undisputed title to the road. The line is at present in splendid condition, ■ the tracks, bridges, cars and the power house being in the best condition they have been in for years. The result of today’s meeting is of much importance not only to the stockholders, but to the community as wiell. _— o A large number of the Sunday school workers, including students,’ teachers, pastors, and officials of the 1 county, met at the German Reformed church, this city, this morning. At this time plans were formulated toward arranging for a big county Sun-1 day school picnic for July Fourth. Itj was decided to hold the picnic in | this city if suitable grounds for the I same can be secured here. If not.i the picnic will be held at Berne. An executive committee was appointed this morning to take charge of the week and their sub-committees wi ll be named later. The executive commitee comprises: President, L. C. Hessert: C. L. Walters, M. Kirsch and C J- Lutz, from Decatur; E. M. Ray and J. F. Lehman, of Berne. The picnic will be an all day affair, and all Sunday schools of the county are expected to join in the celebration of the same. There will be band music and excellent speakers, morning and afternoon, and fireworks at night. _ »- Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Kunkel were en-: tertained at dinner at the home of: Mr. and Mrs. A.

' All the relatives and many old friends expect to participate in the celebration. Mrs. Mary Hoy, for ten years a missionary of the German Reformed denomination in China, gave an excellent talk Thursday night on her work at the church in this city. She told of the eagerness of the Chinese for the gospel, and how means are inadequate to meet their desire for it. I She spoke of the great improvement the country is showing under the enlightenment. The degraded condition of the women was especially brought out, and she told of the uplifting influence of the gospel on their lives. | Mrs. Hoy served fifteen years as a missionary in Japan before going to [china. During her stay here she was I entertained at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Hessert. She left today for ! Berne, wher e she will speak this evening. The Mother’s club members will spend tomorrow afternoon with Mrs. A. D. Suttles at the Studabaker homestead east of the city. In the evening [they will be joined by their husbands for 6 o’clock dinner, which will be enjoyed picnic style in the house, as the weather is too cool for an out-door picnic.

self, will step into Lester’s place as assistant. Lester, who is a junior in the high school here, will probably resume his studies in the fall. He is a son of Mrs. Elizabeth Lammiman Stanley of this city, and is a bright — "nd a hustler. G rge Wemhoff, the hustling bustnt A.riager of the Wemhoff Monumental Works of this city, was at Fort Wayne Friday, where he, with a number of helpers set up one of the most beautiful and finest works of sculpture on the Mouring family burial lot in St. John's Lutheran cemetery. The statue is of Westerly, Rhode Island granite and is sculptured in a most professional and realistic way, representing “The Rock of Ages.” It is one of the most beautiful pieces ever carved of this image and sets up among the other large and beautiful stones with greater showing than one can picture. The stone from the base to the ; top is eleven feet, with a cross three feet wide running lengthwise. The Mouring family consisting of the Misses Jane, Margaret and Minnie, one of Fort Wayne's most prominent and wealthy families, purchased the Rock of Ages to mark the graves of their dead father and mother, who passed away several years ago. George Wemhoff is very much pleased with the work of sculpture and conI siders himself one of the luckiest persons on earth, as he has set up every [granite monument of Allen county. He is quite well known among all circles 1 in Fort Wayne, who picked him out '-s one of Indiana’s best monument I dealers. o Richmond, Ind., May 24—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Seph Lucus, formerly a prosperous farmer, arrested here Thursday, today confessed to the police of murdering his wife last fail by setting fire to her clothes and striking her over the head with a club. His house was burned to the ground and the suspicious circumstances surrounding the fire, caused Lucus to be called before the grand jury for an' investigation. The jury however fail-1 ed to indict him on these charges and j he was turned free with the suspicions [ of the neighbors resting on him. Lab-1 oring under the strain, the guilty man’s mind gave way with the result of his signing the confession today. Lucus said that he and his wife had quarreled over a loan of $1,600 "which she had made to him. “When she screamed,” he wrote, “I hit her on the head with a billy.” ■'.ndianapolis, Ind., May 24—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Retail liquor licenses issued n Indiana for the year 1912 were 3,774, a decline of 309 over the year 1911.

It is rumored among the barber shops and other authorized centers of the latest and up-to-date gossip that Decatur is soon to hear of the uniting of one of its energetic young business [ men and one of the fairest of fair [ belles of the city. While the bride-to-be has already made one venture upon [ the sea of matrimony and, much to her I misfortune, found it to be a very rough and storm-swept place, ending upon the rocks of divorce, she is still willing to take another voyage, trusting that the captain of her ship of state will prove far more trustworthy , ! and true than the last one.

RESOLUTION WAS ADOPTED. The meeting of the stockholders of th e Fort Wayne & Springfield Traction company Friday, is reported to have been a very satisfactory one. A i resolution to carry out the plans as ■stated in Friday's issue was carried, land it is believed that the develop'ment will come within a few days and that the extension of the line to Portland is only a matter of a short time. Just how or where the project is being fianced could not be learned and as there has been so many proposed plans and so much said and written about the project, the men back of the present plans are not divulging any news. O The same old story of “Shamrocks won" was the result of Sunday's base ball game at the Shamrock park when the local boys crossed bats with the Fort Wayne Blues. In a game fast and furious, and full of sensational plays that would do credit to the big leagures the locals won with the big score. Smith made the first sensational play of the game by tearing down a hot liner in left field with two men on bases. Then came Ault with his big stick and lined out the only home run of the game. This started the ball rolling and Coffee, Baxter and Ault each got a two-base hit, while Buffenbarger got credit for two of them. The team work of the locals was perfect as was shown in a double play made by Coffee to Linn and to Ault. The Blues were a classy little bunch of players, too, and Catcher Sutton kept the crowd in an uproar throughout the game. Johns for the locals, struck out six men, while Druber for the Blues struck out seven. The game for next Sunday will be between the Shamrocks and the Huntington Specials. This is Huntington’s best team and they have been playing fast ball this season, so a great game is expected. o DON’T GET ALL RUN DOWN. Weak and miserable.
