In the Methodist church, conducted by the pastor. Rev. Warriner, assisted by Pastors Konkle and Bull.

Peck, where the body lay in state, surrounded Jjy floral tributes from loved ones, the K. of P. and Masonic orders, club friends and business associates. Many Knights gathered from this part of the state to do honor to the stricken member who had been so prominent in the orde rand who was so universally popular, having served as district deputy, also been appointed grand trustee of Indiana and in Masonic honors was past-master. Ir was always Mr. Peck’s desire that his fellow Knights have charge of his funeral services. A. B. Coleman, chancellor commander, and Rev. Gibson Wilson, prelate, gave the beautiful ritualistic service at the brother’s grave. Among the out of town Knights in attendance were Rev. Gibson Wilson, of Oxford; Judge Hanley and Messrs.. Allman, Hartley, Hammond, O’Connor, Murray and Leopold, of Rensselaer; Mr. Talior, of Logansport; W. F. Bunnell of Monticello. Stricken in the prime of life, Mr. Peck had lived in this community since 1875 and seemed a part of the town’s progress, and his removal to New York state only a few weeks ago had not been sufficient time to dim the recollections of his many and varied efforts toward community betterment. For years he was superintendent of the city waterworks. Active in politics, in 1898 he was appointed postmaster by President McKinley; was’ reappointed by President Roosevelt and again by President Taft, sixteen years in -office; and one year president of the Indiana Postmasters’ Association.

Monticello at a citizens’ mass meeting held a few nights ago decided not to undertake any street paving this year. Financial depression was offered as the cause and when a motion was made against making improvements there was only one dissenting voice. C. T. Faris and wife, of Haigler, Neb., who have been visiting Rensselaer relatives for some time will go to Medaryville tomorrow to remain with relatives for a time before starting for their home. It is 31 years since they moved from Jasper county and they find many changes. On Jan. Ist Mr. and Mrs. Faris ate dinner in Delphi with the widow of George Burk, who is Mr. Faris’s aunt. It was her 77th •birthday and they recalled that just 32 years before on the same date. Mrs. Burk is enjoying excellent health for one of her age. Her daughter, Miss Eva, lives with her, and the other daughter, Mrs. Bessie Matthews lives two miles out from Delphi. Attorney Halleck returned yesterday afternoon from Indianapolis where he spent two days. Jle was with Representative Wood part of the time and says that Logan is making a good showing, has been placed on some good committees and made a number of valuable acquaintances. He occupies one of the best seats on the republican side of the house. The Kankakee drainage measure which Mr. Halleck especially went to see about has not yet been Introduced. He was able to see the proposed measure, however. It seems to be framed with a view to placing the land in the Kankagee valley in the hands of a commission to assess for the removal of the rock ledge at Momence. The measure is fathered in Illinois and when the Indiana legislature understands that the great majority of the land in this state has been or soon is to be drained according to state laws it is not probable the measure will re ceive much support in the legislature.
