of the nation. Here more than two thousand soldiers are housed in handsome brick barracks, surrounded by hundreds of acres of green sward and woodland which. have been beautified by the landscape artist. The buildings include a magnificent hospital, a fine chapel, an amusement hall, greenhouses, a model dairy and many other structures of interest. The mess hall has a seating capacity of more than a thousand, and the veterans fill this vast dining room, the largest in the State of Indiana, twice at each meal. The Soldiers’ Home has a fine military band, which renders a concert every day. Those who wish to remain at the Home for the Fourth, will witness an interesting celebration of Independence Day on grounds where the giant firecracker is absolutely forbidden. The features of the day include a baby show, athletic contests and many other interesting day time features, and at night a fine display of fireworks and moving pictures and music by the band and a huge music machine called the auxetophone.

STABBING AT NILES WES FATAL Clarence Lucas of Niles was stabbed to death about 3:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon, while attempting io enter the home of Joseph Bryant?) while in a fit of drunken rage. Bryant is a bachelor and lives in a small house. Lucas, who had been drinking heavily, went to the Bryant home and demanded admission. Bryant, on perceiving the condition of the man, refused to admit him to his home. The intoxicated man persisted on entering the door which was standing slightly ajar and when Bryant attempted to close the door he whipped out an ugly knife and slashed viciously at the owner of the house. Realizing that to hesitate would mean certain death, Bryant seized a large butcher knife which was lying on the table and struck Lucas a tremendous blow squarely in the neck, severing the jugular vein. Lucas lived in Niles with his wife and the pair are of bad reputation. Bryant is considered to be a very sober and industrious man. He was arrested and is in jail, but will probably be released. —Goshen Democrat. CHUKCH ANNOUNCEMENTSTrinity Evangelical. Rev. Wright, Pastor Sunday School at 9:30 a. m Preaching 10:45 a. m Y. P.
