DIES IT HOME OF
Mrs. Charles A. Robinson, One of
Greenfield's Best Known Women
Dead at Connersville
Again the death angel has called to the heavenly home one of the worlds choicest treasures—a loving mother, a dear wife and a Christian woman Mrs. Milretta Robinson, wife of Dr. Charles A. Robinson. Her death occurred Saturday at 7:15 o'clock a. m. at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Q.. R. Sherry, in Connersville, where she had been for several weeks.
Mrs. Robinson was one of the best known and most generally beloved women in Greenfield. Her acquaintance was unusually wide from the fact that she had many times accompanied her husband on his lecture tours and business engagements. Naturally Mrs. Robinson's disposition was retiring and inclined to the quiet and reserve of the home. Her husband, however, was never contented unless she was with him, and arranged the traveling so pleasant for her that the experience proved mutually enjoyable, she coming to be as anxious to accompany him as he was desirous of having her presence. It has often been remarked that in no plaee and at no time was Dr. Robinson too busy to make it plain that she occupied the first place in his heart, and that he was solicitous for her comfort and welfare above all else. Mrs. Robinson was a powerful encouragement to her husband in success and misfortune.
Twice the Democratic candidate for Congress, editor, author and writer, elevated to the head of the Improved Order of Red Men of Indiana, lecturer of note, all these things oame to Dr. Robinson, a liberal share of which was always generously credited by him to 'that noble little woman up home." Then when the clouds appeared and his eyesight was dimmed, the husband appreciated more than ever the grand qualities of the beautiful character he was given for a life companion, and that is now cut short all too early, and will live only in sweetest memory.
Mrs. Robinson was loved by all. Anything else was impossible. Among the members of the Daughters' of Pocahontas she was their ideal, and for her to ask was to receive, only a hint of her desire being necessary for its gratification. Among the membership of the fraternity of Red Men all over Indiana and particularly in Greenfield her visits of benovelence and mercy one of the cherished memories. She was a devout christian, having been a member of the Methodist Episcopal church for many years. The home and family life of Mrs. Robinson was delightful and a beautiful example. She was ever solicitous for the welfare of her children and grandchildren and long after her health failed could be found most anytime doing something for the children, four of whom survive her—Mrs. Anna Middleton, Roy Robinson, Leslie Robinson, of this city, and Mrs. Cora Sherry, of Connersville.
Mrs. Robinson was the daughter, of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Wickliff, who owned a large farm neap Freeport, Shelby county. Early in life she married William Jonas, the father of Mrs. Middleton, and whose death occurred in a few years. Her second marriage was to Dr. Robinson.
The body was brought to the family home in this city from Connersville, arriving at 8 o'clook Saturday evening. Mrs. Robinson was fifty -seven years of age and for several months had been in critical health from heart affection.
Hereafter Dr. Robinson will continue his residence in Greenfield and give his entire time to lecturing, and engagements with the Red Men.

JEFFRIES WAS ONLY II JOKE
Big Black Man Takes Measure of
Champion in First Round and Fin
ishes Him in Fifteenth.
John Arthur Johnson, a Texas negro, the son of an American slave, is the first and undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
James J. Jeffries, of California, winner of twenty-two championship fights, the man who never was brought to his knees before by a blow, has passed into history as a broken idol. He met utter defeat at the hands of the black champion at Reno, Nev., Monday.
While Jeffries was not actually counted out, he was saved only from this crowning humiliation by his friends pleading with Johnson not to hit the falleti man again, and the towel was brought into the ring from his corner. At the end of the fifteenth round Referee Tex Rickard raised the black arm, and the great crowd filed out, glum and silent.
Jeffries was dragged to his corner, bleeding from the nose and mouth and a dozen outs on the face. He had a black closed eye and swollen fea tures, and he held his head in his hands dazed and incoherent.
Johnson walked out of the ring without a mark on his body, except a slight cut on his lip, which was the opening of a wound received in training.
Ring experts agree that it was not even a championship fight. Jeffries had a chance in the second round, perhaps, but after the sixth it was plain that he was weakened and outclassed at every point, and after the eleventh round it was hopeless.
It was the greatest demonstration the ring has ever seen of the failure of a fighter to ''oome back" after years of retirement. The youth and science of the black man made Jeffries look like a green man. Jeffries was like a log. Johnson was like a black panther, beautiful in his alertness and strength.
The interest in Greenfield was intense Monday night. A "grapevine" raport was received at 5:30 that Jeffries won in the seventeenth round and the extra editions of the Indianapolis News were awaited for confirmation. It was hard for Greenfield peope to believe Jeffries could be defeated. Ladies were anxious to hear the true story and they were nearly all Jeffries supporters.
Nathan Jones was the happiest man in town over the result, and it is said he cleaned up nicely. Nathan for several days had been saying, "There's nothin' to it but Johnson." And so it was.

Was Serious Joke' on Himself. Elba Jacobs, deputy recorder, while wandering about the court house this morning picked up a pair of handcuffs in the sheriff's office add snapped one of them on his left wrist. As the shackles clicked Sheriff Cox observed what was done, and caused a chill to chase over Mr. Jacobs by saying: "You've played the devil. I've got no key for those bracelets."
The deputy sheriff had the key to the handcuffs, and at the time was out on office business!. There was nothing to do but wait, and Elba's condition was truly pitiable as he waited for the man whose coming Will never again be more acceptable.

RADIANT HAIR
Every
Woman Can Have It These Modern Days.
Nothing keeps a woman youthful more than close attention to the hair. Any woman whose hair is dull, faded or lusterless cannot be either beautiful or attractive.
Dull hair casts around its owner an environment of stupidness, while the woman with brilliant, lustrous and luxuriant hair, though she may be far inferior in intellect than her dull haired -sister, carries off the honors because of her resplendent hair.
In Paris, where plain women know how to make and keep themselves beautiful, the great hair dressing called Parisian Sage is much demand.
And since the introduction of Parisian Sage into America, over three years ago, society women in all the ferge cities have learned that the easiest, quickest and surest way to turn lifeless, dull and unattractive hair into brilliant, lustrous and luxuriant hair is to use Parisian Sage.
Parisian Sage is sold by leading druggists in every town in America and by V. L. Early who guarantees it to cure dandmff, stop falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks or money back.
Fifty cents for a large bottle of Parisian Sage. It is a most) daintily perfumed hair dressing and it is not sticky or greasy. The girl with the Auburn hair is on every bottle.
