Gus LeynDecker lias been doing some good shooting lately. He brought in two fine ducks this week and yesterday killed six plover. The shooting of this bird, ‘‘jacksnipe’’ as he is generally known, is good hereabouts. Great strings of them are killed near the old rolling mill pond and they are said to be line eating. F. N. Hunton received a telegram last evening announcing the death of his father in Claremont, New Hampshire. The deceased was seventy-three years of age and was afflicted with rheumatism, which was the cause of his death. Owing to the great distance, Mr. Hunton cannot attend the funeral, as he could not get there until after the interment. John Scott was the victim of a practical joke the other day. He had just completed an incubator and was giving it atrial when, during his absence, someone placed a small decoy duck and an egg shell in the incubator.

He has since discovered his mistake. Mr. and Mrs. Frank D.

Mrs. Lillian Rich was'born in Putnam county Oct. 4, 1861, and married Daniel Rich March 25, 1883, at her father's church. They moved to South Bend last year. Says the South Bend Tribune: “They were tenderly attached to each other, and it was a touching and striking coincidence that the first time Easter Sabbath came on the 25th of March since their marriage—March 26, 18‘J4—and at the exact hour of that event, 8 :45 p. m., the spirit of the devoted wife and loving daughter passed out of the earthly into the heavenly home.
She died a beautiful, peaceftri and I triumphant Christian death. A little daughter, two and one-half years old. and an infant preceded her to the bright home above.” Mrs.' Rich was formerly of this city,) whe-re her father, Rev. S. Beck, was pastor of ('ollege Avemte M. E. | church. She was well known and
quite a favorite.

More Carpet Talk. Tapestry Brussels are very popular and satisfactory carpets for the price. They arc printed before they arc woven and wear well. Body Brussels are so called because the threads which form the face and figure of the carpet go through to the hack and are carried along when not in use, thus forming the body of the carpet—elegant designs in choice shadings and colors. Borders add greatly to the appearance of a carpet. Carpets will wear much longer with good felt lining under them, which can he bought at the very low price of two cents a yard.
