Enoch Schall. an uncle of George V. Fredericks, who has been visiting him for some time, died at his home on Saturday, the cause of his death being congestion of the lungs. .Mr. Schall was nearly SO years of age, a widower and lived at Tipton, Ind., where the body was shipped yesterday for burial. The funeral of Joseph Hornich, who committed suicide on Thursday by shooting himself through the temple, will be held at the home on South Main street this afternoon, the burial bein?; at the Crown Point cemetery. It develops that the mrn had contemplated suicide for some time, he having purchased 'a revolver and a number of cartridges over a week ago at a local hardware Ftore. The last pern of him was on Thursday noon when he returned from a trip to Chicago. From the position and appearance of the body it is thought that he committed the act shortly after the return.

Fred Wheeler and family moved on Saturday to Gary, where they will reside. Harry Baker and wife will occupy the house vacated by the Wheelers on Court street.

THE BEST PROOF

Hammond Citizens Cannot Doubt It. Doan's Kidney Pills were used They brought benefit. The story was told to Hammond residents. Time has strengthened the evidence. Has proven the result lasting. The testimony is from this locality. The proof convincing. David Spencer, 627 Davidson PI., Whiting, Ind., says: "I suffered terribly from kidney disease. The first symptom was pain in my right side. I had to get up often at night to pass the kidney secretions. I also had headr.ches and rheumatic twinges. Sometimes I was so stiff and lame that H was all I could do t move. My health failed and I was so weak and run down that I was discouraged. Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to my attention by a friend and on his advice I got a box. They made a decided improvement from the first and I continued using them until the trouble was removed. I can still recommend Doan's Kidney Pills and am glad to say that the ctire they gave me has been permanent. You may continue using my former statement." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
