ORITUA RY.

The following notice OF the death of
John Oblinger, ialher of Il. j. Ohlinger, of
this place, we reproduce from The Germ
antown, o., Pres, Of this week:
John Oblirger WIS born in the vicinity
II Lancaster, Pennsylvania, July &c, 1874.
He was the second son Of five, of whom
Gabriel Oblnger, formerly of ths place,
was The Youngest. There were five sons
aud three daughters, all of whom have
now passed from time TO eternity.
The boyhood of the deceased WAS passed
IN Pennsylvania and later on the Ohio
river in the vicinity Of Cincinnati. When
Young man lie became located ut Dayton
where he and Mary Henry were married
Decerpber rs, 1928. In March of 1884,
with his lille family he removed ftom
Dayton TO Germantown, where he resided
unul his de,tI, at half past 12 o'clock,
Monday morning, October IS.
Mary, his wife, died May Is, 1881, the
twain having lived in matrimonial larmo-
ny over 80 years. Two sons and one
daughter were born of this union, Favius
Josephus. the only survivor of the family,
now residing at Perrysburg, Ohio.
John Oblinger united with the Meiho-
dist Episcopal Church, in the days of his
yonil, in Dayton, Ohio, and to the day Of
his death lived a consistent devoted mem
ber oil that church, In all the paths OF
life he was quiet, unobtrusive, and wa,
ever thoughtful and careful for the com
fort of others. 1t may be said Of hin,
that lie had not an enemy in tho world
lie enjoyed the respect, confidence and eS
ieem Of all hla neiglibors. His entire life
was serene and peaceful. His trust and
confidence in the precepts and truths Of the
| Christian religion were mistaken, III,
lived Christian, hs died Christian
strong in the living PRINCIPLES of the lowly
| NaEarene.
The funeral services on Wednesday
October 20, were conducted by the pastor
c. w. Barnes, assisted by Rev. Swain and
Rev. II. NJ. Ollie. The sermon was from
Prov. 1851 "The hoary head is a crow,
Of glory ii it be found in the way o
righteousness" Both pNstors spok,

they had derived from their calls upoi

The Governor and several Of the state
officials of Illinois have been in Chicago
| investigating the case OF dstillcry fed
cattle in that city, and have decided that
the only way to stamp ont the plcuro'
pneumonia engcndcrcd by tho distillery
slors, is to destroy an hundred thousand
dollars worth of cattle and burn the
sheds in which they have been confined.
All the papers in the state approve
the decision because ii Is the only way to
preserve the cattle of the farmers from
the drt al infection. We lave not seen
n single word concerning the infringe
ment of personal rights, nor question
rs to the right of the state to destroy
this property.
Why, then has it not the right to
stamp out other products of the distl-
lery TO protect the people of the state
against its infection? GLOW much then
is n man better than COW z" Governor
Oglesby evidently thinks he is not of TO
much Importance, for he says that this
question of destroying these distillery-
diseased cattle is the most important
one he has ever had to deal with. And
yet the question of the protection of the
home against the saloon has been before
him. Un,on Signal
