THOUSANDS ATTEND FUNERAL OF GIRLS
Pulpit Erected in Church Yard to Accommodate the People Who Attend the Services.
More than 1,000 people, forming with their automobiles and carriages a funeral procession more than a mile long attended the funeral of the four daughters of John Schwin Thursday afternoon. Zion Lutheran church, seven miles northeast of the city, was packed long before the time of the funeral services and as it was realized that another thousand people were coming from the Schwin home, where short services were held, a pulpit was hastily erected in the church yard and the impressive funeral services, conducted by Rev. F. A. Dressel, were held in the open air. The four girls were laid side by side in an immense grave in the Zion church cemetery. The tragic drowning of the four sisters last Monday afternoon has had a profound effect upon the residents of the city and vicinity, as evidenced by the fact that more than $600 has been subscribed for the relief of the stricken family. Of this amount a little more than $500 was raised in the city, while the farmer neighbors of Schwin raised an even $100. The men of the neighborhood also donated their labor in digging the grave, while Zion church donated the cemetery lot. ELKHART WILL HAVE QUIET CELEBRATION EIkhart will celebrate the Fourth very quietly. A general suspension of business will be in effect, but with the exception of a race meet to include motorcycle races to be given at the driving park in the afternoon and band concerts at Island and McNaughton parks in the evening, there will be but few attractions. The Island park attraction in the evening will include free exhibitions of moving pictures under the auspices of Otis Bullock.
GETS ENCYCLOPEDIA. Mrs. A. R. Beardsley has ordered a set of the Catholic Encyclopedia for the library, her offer to purchase the same having been gladly accepted by the board of directors, who had long wished to place the work upon the shelves of the library, but had been deterred by the expense, which is $70. The encyclopedia records the work of the Catholic church and churchmen in the realms of science, art and for the moral uplift of the race.

BREAKS HIS NECK IN FALL FROM SCAFFOLD
Frank Enders Is Killed Instantly When He Tumbles a Distance of 24 Feet.
Precipitated from the top of a scaffold upon which he was working, when he made a misstep, Frank Enders, a contracting carpenter fell 24 feet to the ground Thursday morning and struck on his head, breaking his neck. He made no sound, and is thought to have died instantly. Frank Lape. Mr. Ender's partner, was also on tho scaffold, which was erected for the purpose of placing the cornice in the gable of a new house being erected for J. A. Hunt at 124 S. Shore drive. Mr. Lape, as well as Asa Hltesman and D. B. Good, employed at other work on the new building, hurried to Mr. Enders, but were unable to do anything for him. Coroner Mast was called and he allowed the body to be taken to the C. E. Walley undertaking rooms. It was later conveyed to the home of a brother-in-law, Ralph Swinehart, 320 N. Third st. Mr. Enders was born in York township in 1861. He spent the early years of his life near Middlebury, coming here 25 years ago, following his occupation as carpenter with the exception of a few years at the Elkhart and Western depot. He was a member of the Carpenters union and the Eagles. The surviving relatives are his father, Henry Enders of this city; one son, Louis Enders of Newcastle; two sisters, Mrs. Marion Corpe and Mrs. Ralph Swinehart of this city, and three brothers, George Enders of this city, William Enders of Brazil, Ind., and Charles Enders, who is in Mexico. PLAYS PIANO FOR EIGHT LONG HOURS "I am good for another eight hours", said Alton Potter, the Airdome pianist, Thursday evening at the conclusion of an eight-hour endurance test, during which he had played a piano continuously in the window of the Wilbur Templin music store, beginning at noon and finishing his feat at 8 o'clock. Mr. Potter however showed signs of physical weariness at the conclusion of his performance, he having finished with a great burst of speed. While throughout the afternoon he had played all kinds of music as asked, being handed music from the store, some of it unfamiliar to him, and had failed at any time to "loaf on the job" as Is customary in performances of this kind, during the last hour of the test his playing became more and more vigorous, until during the last ten minutes of his playing he was interpreting only the "raggiest" of all popular ragtime. Tho test on Thursday was in the nature of a preliminary, as it is Mr. Potter's intention to attempt to exceed tho world's record of three hours seven minutes within the next few weeks. In about two weeks he will attempt to play for 24 hours without taking his hands from the keys, which will bo within two hours of his own previous record of 26 hours, made at Salem. Mass.. and if then successful
he Vill attempt to play for 34 hours continuously.
