(Syracuse Journal.) , Miss Bernice Clark, daughter of William Clark of Solomon's Creek, was on Christmas day united in marriage -to Murrill C. Neff, son of Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Keff residing north of Syracuse. /The ceremony was petformed by Rev. A. E. Clem at the pastor’s home. Following the ceremony the couple motored to Elkhart, where the members of their families had gathered for a Christmas dinner and gave them a hearty surprise. The newlyweds will be at home on the farm after January 1, 1922. It seems that-red foxes are becoming more numerous in Indiana of late. Two of them were killed near Wolf Lake last week by James Adam of Ligonier and another man whose name is not given. Two were, killed near the head of Wawasee lake last winter by*a hunting party made up of farmers of that vicinity. Those killed last week were surprised in a clover field and easily shot, but to shoot one when lie knows that he is being hunted requires 3 skillful hunter. Those killed last winter were hunted several days by quite a large number of men and -some good dogs -before they were finally caught.

BREMEN

■ (Bremen- Enquirer.) Wednesday evening of last week a pouch of mail was hung up by William Bollenbacher on_ the west mall crane at the B. & O. station as usual for train No. 9, the fast train due west about sp. in. The mail agent on the train faile'd for some reason to catch it. This is a not unusual occurrence. It happens rather frequently. Tiie pouch usually is found somewhere along the track. In one instance it was found more than a mile away from the crane, having caught on a truck or some part of a car and been carried that far before it fell off. But no trace of the pouch lost last week has been found.; The car has been-followed into Chicago, and the track searched diligently, but no sign of the missing pouch has yet been found. The Bremen State bank had a uninber of checks in the lost pouch. Even if there is no loss of money the loss of the-checks will occasion a lot of work and worry. Tin; wisdom of catching mail pouches on tr.ms running sixty miles an hour is open to serious doubt. Jacob Carbiener was taken very sick Sunday with an attack of acute indigestion. It rendered him unconscious for a time and considerable
