Notice to Taxpayers. - The tax Duplicates, as required by law, will be returned to the County Auditor, April 15th 1895. Penalties will be added to such taxes as, then become delinquent. Making receipts, writing in descriptions and entering proper credits requires time. The facilities of the Treasurer’s office are not such as to enable this work to be done for all the taxpayers of the county in the last few days of tax paying. Those having taxes to pay are requested to call early and avoid the rush and unavoidable delays of the last part of the tax-pay-ing time. Administrators, Guardians, Executors, those having property in trust, all who own property taxed in some other name than their own, all who own property in more than one township or town and all whose taxes are complicated, having to be computed and separated from some other person’s taxes, should by all meanrpay early enough to give time to make the computations and separations when a will not have to be kept waiting for such work. Under existing laws the Treasurer can not make and hold receipts for unpaid taxes. Please do not ask it. M. L. Hemphill, Treasurer Jasper Co., Indiana. Rensselaer Ind., March sth, 1895.

OBITUARY.

MRS. MARY PERKINS. On Thursday, March 7,1895, death claimed another victim from Rensselaer, Mrs. Mary Perkins wife of W. T. ; I’erkins, was the one stricken down. About two weeks before her death she was taken ' with pneumonia; she was not thought to be dangerously ill until two or three days before her death.

Mis. Perkins was too long a resident of Rensselaer and too well known to need an especial eulogy on her life. It is but a small tribute to her memory to tell what all her acquaintances know by saying that she was a woman of remarkable energy and business ability. Her charities were marked by the same energy as her other work. Truly, •‘What thy hands find to do, do widi’aitthy might” was her motto. The needy never was turned from her door empty handed. Sbe was given to hospitality and ministers were especially welcome to her home. Her especial pleasure was the welfare of the church of wbicli “she ’ was a member for more than forty-four ears. She leaves a husband, son, one brother and three sLters to mourn ler loss. Mary Nichols was born in Panton, Vermont, Feb. 22, 1829. She united with the Baptist church at Port Ann, N. ¥., in Feb. 1851, and maintained a continuous connection with this denomination ever since, the last 14 years being in the Rensselaer Baptist church. She was Carried to Wm. T. Perkins May 8, 1851. She was the mother of one son, Ansel T., now of Whiting, Ind. She died March 7, 1895, in full assurance of a good hope in Jesus Christ.

The funeral services were held in the Baptist church on the 10th and were very largely attended. Services were conducted by Rev. D. J. Huston, of Goodland, Ind. Sermon from Heb.ll: 14-16; and Jahn 14: 2 3. Those present from abroad were P. C. Perkins, and Mrs. Alex Wright, of Mishawaka, Ind., Frank G. Perkins, Coldwater, Mich., Chas. A. Perkins, Mr. and Mrs. Edward A. Perkins, and Mi. and Mrs. Robert Henderson, Goodland, Ind., and Mrs. Wm. Locke, Quincy, Mich. The floral designs were very beautiful and appropriate. She was laid to rest in Weston cemetery.
