Newsy News Notes From Monon’s Newsy Newspaper.

—A barn belonging to Charles Chrson, northeast of town, was deajroyeih by fie Friday morning at 1 o’clock. Two horses were burned, one of them a stallion on which a policy for SBOO in the Ohio and Indiana Live Stock Insurance Co. had expired a few days previous. Other contents, including harness, grain and hay, were lost. The barn was insured for SBOO in one of Fred Thomas’ agencies. How the fire originated is unknown and it was not discovered until too late to save anything. Mr. Carson estimates his loss at $3,000. George W. Perkins,' multi-million-aire, and said to be financial manager of the Roosevelt campaign, was in conference with Dr. Coffin, progressive district chairman, in Monticello one day last week, . ' • .. The News enters upon its 25th year of publication with this issue. That it holds an honorable place of recognition among country newspapers is attested by the liberal patronage it is receiving. The subscription list is practically on a cash basis and new subscriptions are being added daily with seldom a stop. The News takes pride in claiming the largest number of country correspondents of any paper in Northern Indiana published outside of a couty seat, with but few rivals in the latter. To this feature we attribute much of the paper’s popularity with the reading public, and for this reason our best efforts will continue to make it still better. With Ex-Senator Fairbanks yesterday for the republicans, Montaville Flowers for the progressives today, and Samuel M. Ralston for the democrats tomorrow, Monticello is having a diversified feast of campaign oratory. The Burnettsville News quotes Rev. A. L Martin, progressive candidate for representative, as saying in a recent speech at that place, that he would rather see Theodore Roosevelt crowned king of the United States during life than see either of the old parties in power. Mr. Martin seems to be going some. The deceptiveness of over-confidence in a campaign, was illustrated in a certain candidate for office in this county. In a council of war the night before election, he said, “Boys, I know where I can get three more votes by going to Big Creek' township, but I don’t need them —my election is certain.” When the ballots were counted this same candidate’s opponent had over 300 majority.

Mrs. M. L. Spitler, who was called here by the death of her father, S. E. Yeoman, left yesterday for a day’s visit with Miss Ora Yeoman at Valparaiso, and expected to leave for her home in Oklahoma City today. Her mother accompanied her as far as Chicago. B. F. Fendig and Dr. Johnson started to Chicago today to see the Cubs-Sox ball game and got as far as the depot. Word came that there was rain all last night and prospects of more and small ehanee for the game and they gave up going. Then dt cleared off. C. E. Prior returned this morning from Chicago. He did not hear Gov. Wilson last night. He ate supper about 14 miles from the place Wilson was to speak and it was raining. He learned this morning that there were 20,000 at the armory where the speaking took place and decided that he was not missed. John M. Shields, an auctioneer who has lived neat Monticello for a number of years, and who has been engaged in the business in White county, has moved to Rensselaer and expects to follow the business here. Mrs. Shields is suffering from an abscess on the palm ofAbe left hand and they returned to Monticello today for a short stay there.

SPIRITISM SAID TO BE DEMONISM.

A most interesting little brochure has recently come off the press setting forth with Bible proofs that the communications received by and through Spiritist Mediums is of Demon origin. The writer trsees liis subject through the Scriptures froirf the time .when certain of the holy angels became disobedient He proves from the Scriptures that these fallen spirits personate the human dead, with whose past history, spirits, though invisible, are thoroughly acquainted. He shows that they also frequently personate the Creator and the Redeemer, commanding their deceived ones to pray, do penance, etc. This, however, is merely to lead them on and to bring them more thoroughly under demoniacal control. Sometimes by breaking down the natural barrier, the human will, they possess'their victim, and rule him more or less to his ruin—frequently sending such to the mad-bouse. Numerous illustrations, Scriptural and otherwise, are given. The price of the little book is but ten cents; it should be in the bands of all interested in Spiritism or who have friends interested therein. Enclose five two-cent stamps to the Bible and' Tract Society, 17 Hicks street, Brooklyn, N, X,

MORE WESTERN NEWS FROM G. L. THORNTON

Visited Indian- Reservation, Mountain Peaks, Caves and Took Trip in Garden of the Gods. We wrote of our outing a short time agS and we will finish now. On September 20th, leaving the Sparling farm with Chief Lone Wolf in his big car, Mr. Sparling, Mrs. Harve Miller and son, Billie, we arrived at Chilocco at noon in time to see 560 Indian girls and boys march to the dining room and take their places at a -table laden with good things to eat, furnished by Uncle Sam. Leaving there on Monday, Ive arrived at Colorado City Wednesday morning, in time to visit Williams’ Canon. We went by carriage and reached an altitude of 7,475 feet. There we entered the Cave of the Winds, which we will not attempt to describe, for to get a correct idea of it one has to see it. We will say, however, it is a wonder of wonders. From there we were driven through the Garden of the Gods to Glen Ire, which is an old English castle. Here we beheld nature in all its glorj. The castle and grounds have been protected and cared for for years by the keepers. The castle with all its grandeur and the driveways are just as the old places in England are. This took In all of our first afternoon. Tuesday we visited South Cheyenne Canon, which is another beautiful placer Here the seven falls come thundering down the clifts and here one can really look on the-wonders of nature. We ascended the canon some hundred feet by steps, at the top of which is the grave of Helen Hunt. Wednesday, the last but not least, was the trip to Cripple Creek. We went by rail to the summit The post office here is of the highest altitude in the world. At the summit we qhanged cars and went the rest of the way on an electric car. Returning to Colorado Springs, we turned our course homeward, stopping in Vinton, lowa, for a few days to visit our son, Earl, and wife. This is the seventh state we have been in while on our outing and not one of them has surpassed old Indiana in our estimation. We are fond of our old home and will be at -home after this week to all callers. Yours, Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Thornton.

Obituary and Resolution Concerning James R. Baker.

Glenn Baker, of Barkley township, returned this Friday morning from Pontiac, 111., where his brother, James R. Baker, lost his life last Friday, Oct. 4th, by stepping on a live electric wire. He worked for the electric railroad company as a repair man and his death occurred at Odell, 111., while he was at work. He was working on the trolley and standing on the tower on the repair car. The car is insulated but in some manner the wires became crossed and fornled a short circuit and the entire voltage passed through his system, throwing him from the tower a distance of thirty feet, breaking his neck and killing him instantly. He was buried at Pontiac Monday. The following obituary was read at the service: James R. Baker was born in Rensselaer, Ind., Aug. 9, 1880. Departed this life in Odell, 111., Oct. 4, 1912. He was therefore aged 32 years, 1 month and 25 days, at the time of his death. He was united in the bonds of holy matrimony to Miss Carrie Pari in in Pontiac, Oct 21, 1903. They spent the first four years of their married life in the state of Indiana, near Bro. Baker’s old home, and then moved to Pontiac in 1907, and have since made this their home. To this union two children were born, Vera, age seven, and Mildred, age six. He leaves to mourn their loss a wife and two children, a father, John N. Baker, of Rensselaer; three brothers, Bruce and Glenn, of Rensselaer, and W. C., of Chicago; four sisters, Mrs. Geo. Kimberlin, of Rossville, Ill; and Pearl, Carolyn and Ruby, of Rensselaer. His mother died Sept. 11, 1908. Bro. Baker united with the Christian church Dec. 4, 1911. The last ten months of his life has been spent in the interest of the service of this church. He has had in mind its interests and has been- faithful to the services of the church. His presence will be missed from the men’s Bible class on Sunday morning, but his influence will live in our hearts and lives. Tfte thought of his life of service and devoson will ever bring to our lives the truth expressed in the words of the poet:

“The afflictions of life are brief and light, - .while faith looks beyond the dark Jordan’s strand. Where splendidly shine the mansions bright, Which Jesus prepares in that glorious Land. The appended resolutions were prepared by a committee of the Mens’ Century Bible Class of the First Christian church of Pontiac, and show the high esteem in which he was held: Whereas the hand of death has removed from us our beloved brother, James R. Baker, a faithful member of the church and Bible school: Therefore be it resolved, that the Mens’ Century Class of the First Christian church, Pontiac, 111.. express our sympathy to the bereaved family and friends in this, the sad hour of their bereavement. Be it also resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family, and a copy placed on the class record. Resolved that the* class certificate '(be draped in mourning for thirty days as a manifestation of our appreciation as his service rendered in the .interest of the class. COMMITTEE.
