The south window of Lauer 's store bas been in the hands of Mr. Otto Robbins, and he has evolved an effeet that is unique. It is a witch scene, with all the weirdaess that goes with Hallowe-en. There is the witch astride the broom stick, and all the little imps that are supposed to do service on that night. The colors are orange and black, and the effect produced is most uncanny. When the lights are on at night.it is a sight worth going to see, and proves Mr. Bobbins is an -artist of no mean ability. Former -Plymouth 'Han in Trouble.

A lettcT received this morning from Lloyd Bowell, who is In the hospital at Ft., Wayne, says he is gaining rapidly, and the physician cays he T7Ü1 be able to cone how in a' 't ten days.

Taft is Gaining. (South Bend Tribune.) According, to reports from Wash ington the insurgents are not re

sponsible for all of President Taft's political troubles these days. It is said in these reports that the pro nounced reactionaries are giving the president as much worry as the man who have enlisted under the La Follette banner. That this is a correct presenta tion of the prevailing situation there can be little doubt. Nor can there be much doubt but that as time passes the opposition in pronounced regular quarters will increase, while that on the other side will decrease. President Taft started on the present swing around the circle with the announced intention of taking the middle course. He has done just that. He is neither more progressive nor more reactionary than when he started. He has offended more regu lars,- however, than progressives. Why? The reactionaries , were mistaken about the president. Too many of them held to the opinion that because he was not an out-and-out in surgent he must be with them. They deluded themselves into believing that there was no middle ground; that the president must be reaction ary or insurgent. This despite the action in replacing Ballinger with Fisher; despite the attitude on re ciprocity; despite the position on tariff revision and a tariff commis sion and despite half a dozen other things. They were, therefore much shocked at the Detroit speech, com ing as it did so) soon after the presi dent had spoken his. mind on .in surgency. The warning to big busi ness it would have to come within the law; that although it was time for agitation of the business hurting kind to cease the prosecutions of combination alleged to be in restraint of trade would go on, were errifie blows for overwrought nerves When the president emphatically backed up the Detroit' speech by a similar, although possibly stronger address at Waterloo, la., the regulars were again disturbed. The Pocatello, Idaho, speech was the last straw. Thev are now not slow in telling what they think of Mr. Taft They see no hope for the republican party and believe that it will bo letter for the .future of the party if a democratic president is elected. The regulars are not making so much noise as the insurgcous in surgent, but they are just as strong in their conclusions, and perhaps stronger. In the; meantime the president con tinues in the middle of the road. He continues making speeches which are nothing if not progressive. That all Mis is having an effect is certain. The west is showing more than passing interest in th executive. He Li gaining the support of progressives who have been doubtful. The atti tude of some of the out-and-out in surgents is also significant. 3AFE IN LAKUVILLE . STORE IS ROBBED That the thieved who have been operating in South Bend for the last month are also able to crack a safe when the opportunity presents itself may be possible, from the circum stances surrounding the robbery lat night of Rensberger Bros geiferal tore at Lakeville, this county. The thugs blew the safe in the store with nitroglycerine and apparently return ed to South Bend. The horse and carriage which thev stole at Lakeville, was located in the city early today. Two hundred dollars in money, valuable checks, notes and leeds were secured in blowing the safe. Entrance to the - Lakerille store was made through the front door of the establishment, the thieves being apparently possessed of a key to the place.r.They . entered without noise . sometime during , the night, and to all appearances spent considerable time preparatory to crack ing the safe and plundering the store. The explosion must have made considerable noise,according to the authorities, but so far. as known it was not heard by a single person in the village. ' Although a few articles were tak. en from the stock the principal loss eame in the money and other valuables removed from the safe after Mie front door had been blown almost entirely off. A horse "and cara?e belonging to James Anniswas "ised about the tine of . the robbery was discovered, The South Bend police were notified of the affair and soon after the outfit was located 'ear the home of Mrs. David White rran, cn Olive street. That the yegsrmen came to South Bend immediately followinr the rob bery in the stolen outfit, the authon ties believe. The men are supposed to be still in the city, although there is no clue to their identity or whereabouts. South Bend Tribune. Harry' Kilmer . has sol.! hi3 residence on south Michigan street to . A.

OBITUARY.

George W. Kauffman was born in Starke county, Ohio, September 13, 1836, and died at his home on west Washington street in Plymouth at about noon of October 25, 1911 aged, 75 years, 1 month and 12 days. He came to Marshall county, Ind., on April 11, 1850, and located on a farm four miles south of Bremen. On May 12, 1867 he was married near Bremen to Miss Mary E. Ryan, who survives him, having nursed him through his long illness with the utmost care. Indeed all that love and devotion could do for him was well done by his faithful wife. Seven children were born to this union: George M. Kauffman who lives in South Bend, Elizabeth May now Mrs. Hardy of Plymouth, Caroline Matilda who died in 1877, Susie now Mrs. W. C. Miller of Kansas City, Rosa now Mrs. Chas. LeBrash of Chicago, Nettie now Mrs. Harry Soice of Plymouth, Arthur M. Kauffman also of Plymouth. Mr. Kauffman leaves besides the above named, one brother, Jacob Kauffman of Bremen, and four sisters, Mrs. Lou Botsett, Mrs. Kate Beerbower and Mrs. Emeline Ewalt, wife of Valentine Ewalt, all of Plymouth and Mrs. Margaret Casper of Maple Grove, Ind. There were 12 children in Mr. Kauffman's family, all of whom are dead except the above named. There are also thirteen grandchildren. Mr. Kauffman served his country during the Civil war. He enlisted at South Bend in the 73d Indiana Infantry, Company D, being sworn into the service on July 14, 1862. and served through to the end of the war. He was in the battles of Perryville, Stone River, Day's Cap, Crooked Creek, Blount's Farm, Athens, Alabama besides taking part in a number of skirmishes that his regiment was engaged in. The funeral will occur at the house Saturday morning at 10 o'clock with Rev. Yager officiating, the G. A. R. of which he was a member, having charge. The burial will be at the Ewalt cemetery, eight miles northeast of Plymouth. Thus another one of the older residents of Marshall county passes out of this life. The family moved to Plymouth nineteen years ago, and it is safe to say that George Kauffman lived a life that made him no enemies. He was always kind and cheerful. Always had a pleasant word or joke, as he loved a little fun as keenly as any one could. He was industrious, always working as long as he was able, considerate of others, and devoted to his family. During his sickness that has lasted for some months, he bore his sufferings patiently and was resigned knowing that his strength was fast ebbing. The family wish to publicly thank neighbors and friends for all the little kindnesses shown during his illness and at the sad hour when death came. All of his children, and all of his sisters and his brother are here for the funeral. Drug Store Changes Hands. The Shade! Drug Store south of the Retmblican office has been soVd to F. C. Deitseh of Geneva. Ind. The store is closed today for invoice Mr. Shadel is uncertain about his 'uture, but expects to go south for a time. POPULAR GOVERNMENT.

CKETS IRE MIED FOR FÄLL ELECTION

I I I I ALL TOWNS OF COUNTY WILL HAVE TO VOTE ON PART OF THEIR OFFICERS IN NOVEMBER. MEN; WHO M NAMED Argos, Bourbon, Bremen and Culver All Are Ready With Party Candidates for the People's Choice. It is not generally known that all the incorporated towns of Indiana will hold election of town officers on Nov. 7. Those towns in ''-Marshall county include Argos. Bourbon, Bremen, Culver and Lapaz. It will be noticed that only a part of the officers are to be chosen. This comes obout because of a new law of 1911, which changes the term of town officers .clerk, treasurer and marshal, back from four to two years. The law. of 1907 made it four years. There is difference of opinion on this point, says Judge Hess, as to whether there must be elections of all these officers this fall. He is of opinion that there should be, to be sure that no difficulty arise from the acts of the! city. Argos can boast of three tickets. Democrat, Republican and Socialist. Here are the tickets so far named: . Bourton Nominations. Republican Ticker John Fojrle Clerk. O .S. (Jaskill Treasurer. Robert Park Marshal. Democratic Ticket Chas. MeKinney, Jr. Councilman.
