Mrs. W. H. Barkley went to Gary Wednesday for a short visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Starr, and to accompany home her niece, little Geneveive Starr, who had been visiting her here for a few days. Mrs. Erastus Peacock, who has been in failing health for the past year or more, has been much worse of late and the end is thought to be very near, in fact may come at almost any moment. Elias Arnolds of Barkley tp., left Wednesday for a couple of months sojourn in California, most of which time he will spend with his brother, Henry, at Pomona. He will also visit Los Angeles and San Francisco. Mrs. Arnold accompanied him as far as Chicago. The report that Mrs. Ida Pierce would move back to the farm next spring, she informs The Democrat, is incorrect. The family intends to remain in town, and Mrs. Pierce did not know that the house she occupies had been rented to Otto Braun 'until she read it in The Democrat. The Red Men have vacated their quarters on the third floor of The Democrat building and are holding their meetings now, we understand, in the K. of P. hall. They have stored their paraphernalia, in rooms in the rear of John Werner’s tailor shop, and it is reported are figuring on building a “wigman” of their own the coming season. The son accredited to Mr. and Mrs. Ray Overton in Wednesday’s Democrat should have been charged to Mr. and Mrs. Bert Overton. The error came about through the confusion of names by the attending physician, from whom The Democrat secured the item. Ray pleads not guilty, and we accept him at his word, but would suggest that he call up the doctor and tell him to charge his services to Bert, or he may be called upon to pay for a son that he never got.
