THE MONON TC IMPROVE

Rumors That the Morgan Lines Aie in Control

NEW EQUIPNIETT NEEDED

The Ijouisville and Nashville Will Make the Mellon the Nortliern Outlet for tin- Great Southern System of Roads.

The recent election of Ira G Rawn as President of the Mouon indicated that the Morgan interests were expecting to give the Motion closer attention. The Monon has been the property of the \,. & X. and the Southern, both of which are Morgan properties. The recent change or presidents of the Monon is taken as an indication that the Morgan interests propose to do more with the road. Heretofore business organizing on the L. & X. for Chicago has been sent by way of the .<wuion, while business originating on the various lines making up what is known as the Southern has been forwarded to Chicago by wax of the ti. &. E I. It is reported that the agreement, by which the Chicago & Eastern Illinois got this business from the Southern, is about to expire and interests are making arrangements for the handling of this business by the Monon. If the Monon is to handle the business originating on both the Southern and the L. & X. improvements will be made and additional eqipment will be needed, it is stated, for the arrangement would very greatly increase the business of the M onon.

Driskell, who inlistod in the United States Marine Corps In October, 1907 and his since been in service in Panama has been honorably discharged from the service because of sickness contracted while on duty on the canal zone. Mr. Driskell contracted malaria and was unfitted for future service. His discharge states that as a soldier he was excellent, his character of the best. Henry Wallace, son of Gen. Lew Wallace of Crawfordsville is in bad with citizens of that town because he has elected to build tin eight foot brick wall round the Wallace estate there. Mr. Wallace got the idea in France, but the transplanted notion has not taken well in Crawfordsville and the brick wall is taboo and Mr. Wallace is hearing things from ad his neighbors. Tuesday night there was one of the most brilliant displays of the Aurora Borealis ever witnessed in this section. The north was ablaze with light and the great colored streamers ran up half way to the zenith. The display was at its best about ten o’clock. There was much fun among the workmen on the Seminary street cement work at noon Friday. A small crowd of the workmen returned early from dinner. They built a fire and carefully heated a paving brick to a goo dheat. This brick they carefully placed on the top one on a pile nicely arranged in just the right place near the fire to attract any one who was cold and wished to sit down to I warm. Some victims began to arI rive, and universally, seeing others seated by the fire, they looked for a | seat and sat down on the hot brick. They rose with much more cerlerlty than common and said thing not printable, but soon calmed down and were ready for the next victim, and laughed louder than any at his antics.

; OBITUARY ! In Memory. The Mt. Olive Missionary Society of which Mrs. John Bence was a hatter member held a memorial meeting for her Thursday afternoon, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. O. \V. Ellis. A large number wore present to bear testimony to the love and esteem in which she was held. Mrs. Bence was treasurer of this society for over twenty years and very seldom missed a meeting. She was endowed with a natural ability for leadership and her strong personality, good judgement and sound Christian principles made her a leader who was trusted and loved to an extent rarely met with. She exerted a wonderful influence over all she came in contact with, encouraging all from her lips as naturally as water from a living spring. To her life with its great possibili-I tes was a beautiful thing and the joy j of living was exemplified In her daily existence. Her standard was! high, her ideals noble, her joys free-1 ly shared, her effectlon gladly given. * The Missionary society and the j community In general feels an Irriparable loss but the memory of a strong, helpful, beautiful life rests like a benediction on all who knew j her. cates have been made out by the auditor and the hooks sent to the trustees. The road superintendents have certified to the trutsees the amount of work done and he has credited on the book. When all was finished this book was turned over to the treasurer and the eredits transferred to the regular tax duplicate. The state tax bond now requires that the superintendents shall issue receipts to the men nt the time the work is done. When the man receiving the receipt goes to pay his taxes he must take that receipt with him and present it to the treasurer who will give him credit for the work done as vouched for by the recipt. If the receipt is lost then no credit. The man doing the work is made responsible for securing the final credit, where heretofore that responsibility had rested upon the trus-

tee.

The treasurer, however, is groaning over the added work to be done during the rush of final tax paying period. Heretofore the hooks were turned In and checked up at leisure. Now the recipt must be produced at j the time of paying the regular taxes! and all the caculatious made at that time. The treasurer is looking for trouble from lost receipts and toward the necessity of extra clerks when the new forfn goes into ef-

fect.

She was anxious to go and meet her dear children, father and mother, sister, brother and other dear] relatives and friends who have gone* before her. Her only regret was to I leave her beloved husband and dear children who are still living and thus break up the happy home. Thus another home has been desolated by the messenger of death. While the family is reconciled to the will of the Divine Ruler still they realize and feel that they have lost a dear one. She leaves a husband, two sons, one daughter, four sisters, two brothers and two grand ratldren besides a great number of friends to mourn her loss. How desolate the home. For mother is not there.
