CAN’T COLLECT THE PAY

City of Kokomo Out of Cash by Iteason of a Desire to Have the Weeds Cut in the City.

The treasurer of the city of Kokomo is having trouble to collect from property owners for the cutting of weeds. An order was Issued In that city that If property owmers failed or refused to cut the weeds about their premises the city would do It and tax it against the property for collection the same as other taxes. A good deal of this work was done, especially in connection with property that was owned by non-residents. Some of them paid but others refused and It is found that suoh collections can not be made for the reason that the city failed to advertise for bids for the ■work.

HON. 9. F. LOCKRIPGE

Elected President of the Great and Glorious “Sirloin and Saddle Club.” The Drovers’ Journal of Chicago makes mention of a high honor bestowed upon one of our fellow citizens who is eminently deserving, as follows: Simpson F. Lockridge of Greencastle, Ind., ex-president of the American Shorthorn Breeders' association, is now president of the Saddle and Sirloin club of Chicago. Mr. Lockridge was tendered this honor Saturday evening at the annual meeting of the club. Arthur Meeker, general manager of Armour & Co., was made vice president, and O. T. Henkle, secretary and treasurer. Four directors whose terms had expired, were reelected as follows: M. P. Buel, Harry Benedict, Emil H. ingwersen and C. O. Robinson. Henry F. Brown, of Minneapolis, Minn., president of the American Shorthorn Breeders' association, was elected hoonrary member of the club and a vote of thanks tendered him in appreciation of his gift of several magnificent portraits in oil of some of founders of great Scotch Shorthorn herds. Secretary Henkle, reading the annual report of the retiring secretary, Mortimer Levering, stated that the club is now in very good shape financially and that the membership roll numbers 210, divided into 148 resident and 62 non-resident members. New members enrolled during the past year numbered 19, of which 15 were Chicagoans. Vice President J. M. Doud was chairman of the meeting in the absence of the president. Colonel John S. Cooper. There was a fair attendance of members, and after the business session was finished an Informal smoker afforded much good entertainment. A prposition that the time of the annual meeting of the club will be set for the afternoon of the first Saturday in November, instead of the evening of that date, was well received and the members will petition the board of directors to change the constitution of the club to that effect. Inability of many members to attend the meeting In the evening was the reason Mr. Buel desired to change the hour. It Is proposed that hereafter the club hold an annual dinner the day the business matters of the organization are to be taken up by the members, and this seems to meet with hearty support.

he probably would not have gone. As the man who committed the assault Is not here the local authorities have no use for the wounded man, as he could only be used as a witness to prosecute his brother. The strange part of the affair Is the confession of the man under arrest in Terre Haute. The offlcers there say that he says that he is the one who committed the

assault.

The only explanation of the affair is that Reeves misunderstood the message, and that Don, Instead of Billy is held by the Terre Hautei offlcers.

CONFETTI CARRIED GERMS.

Town of Ladoga Has a Scourge of DiptherU After a Street Carnival Last Week.

The health authorities of Montgomery county have been working for days to determine the cause of the epidemic of diphtheria that is now raging in that town. The disease seems to have broken out spontaneously and now nine cases are under the care of the local physicians. Over a week ago a street fair was held in that town and hundreds of pounds of confetti were thrown by the young people on the streets at night. When a person would open his mouth It was pretty certain that he would receive a bunch of the dirty paper before he could close It again. It is to this that Dr. Dennis, secretary of the county hoard of health, lays the spread of the awful disease. The confetti come from the floors of printing shops where paper Is cut and punched and the germs find a good lodging place In the soft paper. Several Greencastle people attended the carnival there and Indulged In the confetti throwing, but no cases of the disease have developed here.

A Former Citizen Dead. Mrs. Hannah Tatman, widow of Enal Tatman, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R. S. Farrow, at Gordon, Kansas, on Friday, November 2, 1906. Mrs. Tatman was over ninety-two years of age at the time of her death and enjoyed remarkable good health up until a week previous to her death. Until the death of her son, John, about two years ago, she had been keeping house. Mr. and Mrs. Tatman moved away from this county to Kansas, with Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Farroiw, something over twenty years ago. Mrs. Tatman was the grandmother of Mrs. S. A. Hays, of this city, who was with her at the time of her death. The deceased leaves surviving her, besides her daughter, Mrs. R. S. Farrow of Gordon, a son, Samuel Tatman of Manhattan, Kansas, and a daughter Mrs. H. C. Farrow, of East St. Louis. Mrs. Tatman will be remembered by the older residents of this county.

Saturday was the biggest day In the history of the county treasurer's office. During the day more than $22,000 in taxes was paid into that office in cash and checks by the holders of Putnam county property. Besides his regular clerk, Treasurer Walls had two extra persons helping in the office, which was crowded during the whole day. This large payment of taxes on Saturday caused a large Increase in the business of both of the banks Monday. A large portion of the money which goes to pay the taxes is either checked out of the banks by the people or Is paid In checks at the Treasurer’s office. This, coming as It did in so large a payment on one day caused the clerks In the banks much extra work and the forces in both the Central National and the First National were busy until late Monday night, posting their books. This work generally Is completed by 5 o’clock in the afternoon. The officials of both institutions say that the work of Monday was the heaviest in the history of those Institutions. $11,000 was paid Into the treasurer’s office Monday, making a total of $98,000 for the past ten days.

SURPRISE FRIENDS BY WEDDING

Mai-ringe of Fred Long and Miss Maude Gardner Occurred at S:3.> Wednesday Night.

The many friends of Fred Long and Miss Maud3 Gardner, were greatly surprised tod..y to learn of their marriage on Wednesday at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Josiah Gardner, on south Indiana s.icet. The marriage was a simple home affair, only the members of the bride’s family being present. The ceremony was at 8:30 o’clock, the Rev. Cauble, of the Christian church, officiating. A wedding dinner was served after the service after which the young couple went to their newly furnished home on north College avenue,, where they will reside. The groom Is employed on the Big Four cut off work. He has lived in Greencastle all his life and is popularly known. The bride is one of the town's most charming young ladles.

A Httllowe’eii_pinner. Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Meltzer gave a dinner to some of their friends at their home last night that proved to be one of the most pleasant affairs of its kind. The season's decorations were used over the entire house. Shocks of corn were distributed about the house and large red apples and long ears of corn were used In profusion. A fruit bowl made of a large pumpkin cut in half and scooped out was filled with good apples and adorned a table in the parlor. The dinner was in courses and the last one proved a surprise to the guests. Pumpkin pie was served and some small mugs filled with chocolate and whipped cream on top gave them the appearance of being just from a foming keg cf beer. While the dinner was being served, a fortune teller made her way into the house and spent some' time after the feast in telling of some of the future of the guests. Who she was or where she came from no one knew. Those enjoying the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Meltzer were Messrs, and Mesdames Henry Renick, James L, Randel, W. L. Denman, Roy Abrams and Dr. Amos Ayler.
