Easter Market and Apron Sale.
The Ladies’-Aid Society of the M. E. church will conduct a market and apron sale the Saturday before Easter. The triad of Ben Kahn, at South Bend, Is attracting considerable attention at Remington, where he was formerly in business. Several Remington people have been called to South Bend to testify, among them being Mrs. Fannie Parks, George A. Chappell, Marion Sutherland, Wiß Chappell, Will Geier, Will Beal and George Neirgarten. It is said that Mrs. Kahn and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Hermon Kohen, met the witnesses at Plymouth, 20 miles out from South Bend, and took them all to the Oliver hotel, the leading hostelry in South Bend, after their arrival there. It is also said that detectives thicker than fleas were swarming about the witnesses all the time they were there.
Saturday evening forty-five of the neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. John Nowels gathered at their home with well filled baskets and enjoyed a pleasant evening.
