Miss Marjorie Lougliridge left Monday to resume her studies at Oxford, Ohio, after a few days’ visit here with her mother, Mrs. Frank Leek. Father Andrew Geitl of the Indian school, had one of his toes amputated a few days ago, it being in-' fected with gangrene. It is hoped that he will suffer no further trouble from the infection.

The frame is up for their house and work is being pushed right along to get it ready for occupancy. A 20-foot extension is being built on the west end of Simon Leopold’s store on Van Rensselaer street, and is expected to be completed within the next couple of weeks. This will make him a very nice little room indeed. Simon has given up returning to Colorado for the benefit of his health but will remain here instead, Jay Stockton is figuring on putting up a big new garage building on the Makeever lots on East Washington street for the Motor Service Co., who now occupy the small room in which Mark Schroer, chief member of the new firm, was using for a garage. The. building, if erected, will be about 80x100 feet in size and will be modern in all its appointments. Mrs. Jerome iMarmon phoned The Democrat Monday and said that we misunderstood her regarding her having paid the total amount of the alleged shortage in the American Express Company accounts here, in which her son, John, was involved. She said that she paid but one-half of the SBB4, and that officers of the express company with whom she settled said that Gehr, late express agent here, would have to come across with the other half. George Gorham, who has been the watchman at the Main street crossing of the Monon for quite a long time, was removed one day last week, and Charles Stultz put in his stead. His removal is said to have been made because of the recent catching of some Kniman people on the crossing inside the gates, in their automobile, mention of which was made at the time in The Democrat. Abraham Simpson is circulating a petition for Gorham’s re-lnsta*ement, but whether or not it will have any effect remains to be seen.
