r ‘RUSE WINS FROM WEBSFER LOCALS TAKE GAME WITH THIRTEEN RUNS TO NINE Some people are not aware that Syracuse is the parent of a winning ball team. Our local aggregation has played five games this season and won four of them. Sunday the North Webster team played here on the new diamond just laid out near the cement works and the visitors went down to defeat by a score of 13 and 9. A fairly good crowd witnessed the game and it is belived that many * more will attend the next.

Again Before The Governor A dispatch from Indianapolis says, “George W. Miles, state fish ane game commissioner, is to be asked to explain to Governor Ralston why thousands of dollars are being expended in the building and maintenance of fish hatcheries at Lake Wawasee and Tri-Lake when authorities on the subject say that it is a mistake to attempt to propagate small-mouth bass in hatcheries fed entirely by lake water.” Stuccoing Residence E. E. Strieby is having his residence on Lake street, stuccoed. It will add a great deal to the appearance of the home.

fOUNDRY BUSINESS IS GERING BEREB Local Plant Is Now Running Force Os Twenty-five Men There seems to be a better business outlook over the country than there was two months *ago. Universally fine crops and the right kind of harvesting weather probablj has much to do with this condition. The Gilderman Manufacturing & Foundry Company are now running a force of 25 men and making efforts to secure nearly that many more. Within a week or so they expect to have a force of 40. For several months only two and three heats a week have been drawn off but now they are pouring iron every day. .Mr. Gilderman is receiving many orders and business will be brisk at the foundry for at least two months with what orders for castings now in the office. The local plant was one of the last in this section to reduce their force and they are among the first to resume a full working force. This speaks well for the quality of their castings. Excellent Fountains The soda fountains in Syracuse are doing a rushing business and they deserve it. There are very few places the size of Syracuse where you can get the grade of cooling drinks that you obtain here. It has been remarked by many that the ice cream is also better than ever before and W. W. Stetler is to be complimented upon the installation of the up-to-date freezer in his ice cream factory. Fruit Shipments W. D. Stansifer, general freight and passenger agent for the Winona lines, spent three days in Benton Harbor, Mich., and effected an arrangement to handle enormous shipments of fruit from there. AFFIDAVIT FILED IN WARSAW CHARGES SELLING LIQUOR WITHOUT LICENSE An affidavit was filed at Warsaw, Thursday, charging the proprietor of the Brissell hotel with selling liquor. The charge was made bv Aaron Weaver and is the outcome of drunkenness observed on the streets Sunday. According to the charge “Hop Brew” was the only liquid secured by the intoxicated persons and from this fact the complaintant infers that the beverage was stronger than allowed in a dry territory. A number of stories are afloat. The hotel-keeper claims that the men had a bottle of whiskey secured by one of their number in Ligonier the night before. He further asserts that the near-beer he sells is guaranteed to be within the limit of the law by the manufacturers. It is probable that all so-called temperance beverages sold in Syracuse will be analyzed and the dealers selling them have agreed to discontinue their sale if the liquid is found to contain more than the legal amount of alchohol. Dies In Indianapolis F. L. Hoch went to Indianapolis, last Wednesday, in response to a message informing him of the serious illness of his brother, Charles. Death occurred on Friday morning at 5:30. The body was taken to Hamilton, for burial on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Fred L. Hoch and Mrs. John Kiser, a sister of the deceased attended the obsequies. Judgement Rendered Seider & Burgener have obtained judgement against Eston McClintic for $43.31 in a local justice court. NOTICE All delinquents who are not paid up by June 30 will be disconnected.

When the accident ■ occurred it was supposed that the > hurt was no more serious than a ’ sprained side and back, but for the ’ last three weeks Mr. Kitson has i been feeling worse and a doctor’s s examination disclosed the fact that 1 a rupture existed. When Mr. Kitson returned to work shortly after the accident happened he signed a reciept for insurance and in that way he will not even get the benefit of this money. The cement : management is not responsible for this however; a New York firm writes the insurance. Birth A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. John Gordy, Wednesday, July Bth. HUES SET FIRE TO BABire CLOTHING Received Burns That Causes Death About Thirty Hours Later Elizabeth, the three-year-old ' daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur 1 Snavely, was burned so severely last Friday afternoon while playing in the yard with matches that her death occurred on Saturday evening at 10:00 o’clock. It is supposed that the little girl went into the house, climbed on a chair, or in some manner obtained matches which she took out in the yard. The mother heard her scream and when she arrived at the girl’s side, the clothing was on fire. Mrs. Snavely snatched a comfort from a nearby line and quickly smothered the flames but already the fire had eaten into the vitality of the victim and death occurred Satusday evening at 10:00 o’clock. The sad accident was much deplored and the parents have the sympathy of the entire community. The funeral was held from the house, Monday afternoon, at 2:00 o’clock.

LETTER IRON OLD RESIDENT Left Syracuse 45 Years Ago. Will Visit Here This Fall R. S. Cory, who left Syracues 45 years ago and who is now a resident of Marshalltown, lowa, has written the editor a letter, extracts of which we take liberty of printing. Among other things, Mr. Cory writes: “It has been 45 years since I left old Syracuse and now I am past 70. But when lam reading the happenings in the Journal it makes me think I am a young man again as I spent my young days in and around Syracuse. As for this part of lowa, it is a nice country. Marshalltown is a city of 13,500, located near the lowa river. The river is about like the Elkhart river. We have good fishing, lots nf channel cats, carp, and almost all kinds of fish and some eels. Our crops are fine this year. I have seen corn stalks that measured seven feet and two inches. I think I will come back to Syracuse, this Fall, on a visit if I keep well. I have been on the police force the last three years.” Sue For Divorce Myrtle Mullen has filed suit in the circuit court for a divorce from Robert P. Mullen. They were married September 16, 1898. She claims that her husband’ deserted her on several occasions and abused her. She asks the custody of the ten-year-old daughter and SI,OOO alimony. Milford School Progressing Work on the new Milford school is progressing rapidly. They are now ready to commence the brick Work and it seems sure to be completed in sufficient time for the fall term. BETTEfimN HOG FIGHT That Is What Sam Jones Used To Say About The Chautauqua Sam Jones used to say that “a Chautauqua was better than a dog fight, and was a cross between a county fair and a camp meeting.” While the sentiment was cloaked in his usual uncouth style still the idea he conveyed was about right. No thing creates more interest than these popular summer assemblies. In a few instances street fairs and Chautauqua have been conducted at the same time. Without exception the Chautauqua had the larger crowds and the best elements. The programs are of a high tone and the influences wholly uplifting. A well known Chautauqua manager explains the great drawing power of the Chautauqua by pointing out the fact that the programs are built about personality. People are interested in people. Human interest is one of the strongest elements in our makeup. The Chautauqua presents brains and character and human achievement. The Chautauqua is one of the most democratic institution in America. The audience is on intimate terms with the speakers. It is no uncommon sight to see a group of people from the audience gathered around one of the famous lecturers, carrying on an animated conversation or engaged in questioning him upon some important subject brought out in the lecture. Our citizens will have the opportuity of entertaining some distinguished visitors brought here by the Chautauqua management. Perhaps two of the best known will be Gov. Robt. S Vessey twice chief executive of South Dakota and Judge James A. Collins the great Municipal Judge from Indianapolis. Neither of these men claim to be orators, but both have “done things” and be th have a forceful manner of conveying their messages. Every one who hears the stirring utterances of these men will have something to think about for days after they have left us. Dr. Bible of Philadelphia will be the first notable speaker on our local program. A recent clipping <

from a newspaper in a Chautauqua town says regarding Dr. Bible’s lecture, “Humor of a marked degree featured the lecture. He brought the audience to its feet and set it in an uproar of applause. The audience went wild when the last remarks were made.” Prof. Gause and Mr. Barkley talk to both eye and ear. One by means of the stereoptican and the other by means of crayon and chalk. Prof. Gause lived in the Canal Zone for five years, where he inaugurated a splendid system of education under the support and control of the United States Government. Mr. Bark-

ley is a lawyer by profession but ■ his artistic ability secured him a place on the platform. His pictures are beautiful and brilliant. He has a happy way of pleasing the oldest and the youngest in his audience. Dr. Harry G. Hill is a universal platform favorite. His lectures are full of human interest and his style is one that appeals to the most diversified audience. He belongs to that class of scholar-orator who has not lost touch with men and affairs. We will try to give our readers next week some interesting facts regarding the musicians and entertainers.
