Dr. A. R. Kresler was in Chicago today. Sweet apples and quinces.—Home Grocery. John Schultz and wife and little son went to Chicago today for a short vis - it with relatives. Delos Thompson arrived home this morning from Sullivan where he had been on business. Wanted, at once, two lady Clerks, experienced or inexperienced* Ransford’s Department Store. Mrs. L. E. Pennell took her little son to Chicago today to be operated on for the removal of his tonsils and adenoids. W. W. Reeve is carrying the mail between the postQfflce and the depot, substituting for Tommy O’Meara, whose mother is very sick. Shelby is now legally “dry.” The Peterson saloon license expired last Saturday. This means a longer trip for the boozers and more profit for the railroad company. My loan company is still making farm loans at 5 per cent. If you are going to need a loan make application now as some other companies are already refusing to loan. John A. Dunlap, I. O. 0. F. Bldg. John English has been having some improvements made at his farm in Barkley township, which is occupied by Anton Truly. The barn has been ieshingled and painted and a new corn crib and shed are being built. G. F. Deschand is doing the work. Dr. Charles Fidler left this morning for Milwaukee, Wis., where he is engaged in the practice of medicine. He is giving as much attention as possible to general surgery, being connected with St. Luke’s hospital. His expectation is to eventually engage exclusively in surgical practice.

John Wolf, of Molina, Colo., sent $1 yesterday to E. L. Clark to pay for having his name placed on the Milroy soldiers’ monument. He was a member of the 9th Indiana regiment and will be remembered by our oldest citizens. He is 84 years of age and has lived in Colorado for a great many years. Jerry Healy attended the funeral Sunday at Hanover Center of Father Zumbuelte, whose sudden death occurred at Hammond last Wednesday. The service was conducted by Bishop Alerding, of Fort Wayne, and about fifty priests were in attendance. Realizing that there would be a large attendance at the funeral and that there was no adequate means of caring for them, the members of the Catholic church had prepared a big free dinner, which followed the funeral. Rev. Zumbuelte was one of the best known and most highly esteemed priests in the dioce&e and there was great sorrow at his death. At the meeting of the Board of Education Monday an order was made that any children of the county in the 6th, 6th, 7th and Bth grades might be excused from school to attend the county Sunday school convention to be held at Rensselaer Oct. 12. and 13. Provision was also made that before the teacher would excuse absence a written statement ffrom parent that child was present at the convention on the day or days on which child -was absent from school must be supplied. This seemed a wise movement, as there will be several talks by able men at the convention, and it will be quite a privilege for the children of the county to be present.

Dr. J. Hansson and family are grieving for the loss of their big St. Bernard dog, which died Monday. The animal weighed 240 pounds and death was produced by dropsy. Dr. Hanssor. states that the animal has been discontented since leaving Monon and he believes the dropsy was superinduced by worry and lonesomeness. When the doctor came home at noon the dog raised up one of his great paws and as the doctor caught hold of it, he said, "Well, you’re pretty sick, aren’t you,” and the St. Bernard affectionately leaned his head over against the shoulder of his master and moaned a sort of affirmative reply, in a few minutes the dog was dead and there was sorrowing throughout the household. - > * Those who use the Pillsbury flour never have any trouble in getting good bread.
