Obituary,
DR.. II. NJ. GODFREY.


DR.. II. NJ. Godfrey died at his quiet home
on Webster street, at four O'Clock on Sunday
afternoon, Of heart disease, complicated with
kidney troubles, aged sixty eight years.
The Doctor was born at Broomhill, Cork
Co., ireland, In 1921, and after q course in
the preparatory and academic schools Of his
day, entered the Royal College Of Surgeons
and Physicians At Edinburgh, Scotland
where he graduated with high honors in q
class which has given number Of bright
lights to the medical profession of the United
Kingdom. lie entered the practice Of med
icine in his native land and had become very
successful for young man, when he became
convinced that broader and better field
awaited him on this side Of the Atlantic, and
he thereupon embarked for this country in
1851 and settled down in this city, where
he enjoyed an uninterrupted and profitable
practice until his health failed, about year
ago, since which time he had been, until his
death, more or less an invalid.
A gentleman Of the old school Of Ireland
he was an entertaining oonversationalist
generous to fault and possessed Of a great
sympathizing heart for the poor and needy,
many Of whom he attended without even @
thought OF compensation or other reward
than gratitude. He was lover Of his home
where his kindness and indulgence were
especially marked and where his absence
leaves a void which no presence can fill
Surviving him are his wife and daughters,
Jennie, Mary, Harrietta and Anne, and his
brother, DR.. Abraham Godfrey, of South
Hampton, Eng.
His remains we're taken from his late res.
dence to the Episcopal church, of which he
was lifelong member, at two O'Clock on
Tuesday afternoon, where Rev. Mr.. Edwards
pronounced short euogy, whence the body
was taken to Ottawa Avenue Cemetery, I'M
der the auspicies Of the Masonic Fraternity,
and buried with the rules of that order.
PATRICK DwYER
Patrick Dryer died at his farm, near En-
poria, Kan, on Friday last, aged fifty nine
years. The remains were brought to this
city on Tuesday and inferred in St. COLUMBIA
Cemetery. Mr.. Dryer was, until about
nine years ago, a prominent resident of this
county, and we'll known factor in the
social and business life of his community
He leaves vile and six children surviving
him, three Of whom, VIM j., Ed. and John
compose the firm of Dryer Bros, of this
city.
Mr.. John Slattery of Grundy Co., died at
his old home four and half miles south of
Seneca, on Sunday evening. The deceased
was born in Ireland in 1915 and was "a
years old. He come to this country in 1861
and settled in New York, coming to this
place some years later, finally removing te
Grundy Co., where he resided till his death.
A wife and three children survive him. He
was buried on Tuesday, and the funeral was
one of the largest ever seen in this county,
some one hundred carriages following the
remains to his last resting place.

twine, the price ranging from IA to 10 cts
per pound. Mr. Conard Is one that fought
the twine trust, having written some valu.
able advice In the Ottawa Republican and
Rural Home. Our farmers will have Mr..
Conard send for twine enough to supply
needs and wants, and from the appearance
OF the oat crop 1t will require plenty Of
Irvine.

house built on his farm on section go,

vited to be present to see her graduate, but
the rain prevented them from doing 80.
Miss Schoenleber will spend the summer

Talk about forgetful people, but We
think Allen has some that can beat all the
previous records of forgetfulness. Last
summer one of our farmers drove TO Ran
som TO get twine to commence binding
his grain. He put the Irvine into his bug.
gy, and as DR.. B. was going to see sick
boy of the gentleman's family he got into
the rig and rode home with the doctor and
forgot his team In Ransom. Another man
drove his horse and buggy to Ransom and
when evening came walked home and for.
got he had horse and buggy until re-
minded of the fact by his wife. Both Of
these gentlemen sent their boys back after
the horses so the laugh would not be on
them, but we found out the joke all the
same. The most forgetful man of the city
locked his store door one day last cam
paign time and started for dinner, but be-
fore leaving wrote on the hanging slate
will be back at 2 80 o'clock" When he
returned after dinner he had some bust
ness with store-keeper, so he thought he
would do the business before he entered
his own building, and sauntering up to the
door he espied the words, twill be back at
2:3O o'clock, so he sat down on his own
steps to wait until 80, waiting for himself
an hour and ten minutes. The names of
those forgetful fellows we do not wish to
mention, but We were told the jokes by one
who knew. d.

was too great for him to resist, as the Office

of the pressn, Indian Commissioner will

himself most creditable reputation. lie
has brought to bear upon the intricate
problems presented for his consideration
not only thorough business sense, but a
discriminating judgment, and In all things
has shown decent regard for the well
being Of the nations wards. So admirably
has he conducted the affairs OF his office
that Hayper's Weekly, and other leading
journals Joined with the Indian Rights As

of the Indian question requires the abili'
tiles of just such man as John II. Oberly,
for he has been faithful to the uttermost
In guarding both tie interests of the In
dian as we'll as those of the government
and It Is to be regretted that he Is not re-
tained TO further the work so we'll begun.
The Washington Critic on Wednesday
said of Mr.. Oberly's retirement:
"Indan Commissioner Oberly goes on,
of Office laughingly-none knows better
than he the vicissitudes of politics-and It
is not too much TO say that, Democrat
though he be from head to foot, he goe.
out with the regret of great many Repub.
licans. Mr.. Oberly In each of the import.
ant positions he has occupied under a
Democratic administration, has won the
regard of men of all parties. He Is hon
est, he has always been fair, he has not
carried partisanship into the discharge of
official duties, and he performed those du.
ties ably and efficiently. All this may be
said with justice of the retiring Indian
commissioner.
Mr.. Oberly Will return to Illinois to re-
sumo his labors as a journalist. II Is not
definitely known where he will settle, but
wherever he does the democrats may rest
assured that he will publish paper that
will maintain the principles of the best
elements of the democratic party. Just at
present the democrats of this state need
such a man as Oberly to give them the
benefit of his capabilities as an organizer,
and as promoter of party success. His
views upon public questions he always
ably expresses, both upon the platform and
through the columns of the press, and In
the next campaign In illinois we expect
him to render his party efficient service,
and, therefore, while regretting that the
government will lose so able, efficient and
honest an officer, the democrats of the
State will give him hearty welcome in
his return TO US

Stepped on Them,

On Wednesday afternoon, Jordan, Bulger
Beaubien, Kelly, Fox. Farrell, Cumley
Boissenin and Linderman, the "Stars, "
stepped out upon the Driving Park attirsd
in high strung paper collars and spiked
shoes. They left the diamond at four o'clock
with the collars hanging BY one button and
the spikes in their shoes turned outward.
They had played ball with the Monmouth
club. Five innings had been worried
through and the score stood eight to three.
The Monmouths were sky scrapers and bag
sharers. and apparently walked on the
STARS" while Ed. Sapp's hair was turning
blue. A four Dagger by Linderman in the
third inning, with two on bases, saved tho
Stars from clean score. The game was un.
finished because the Monmouths were COM
PEELED to 90 home on the four O'Clock train.
A little more practice would have given the
Stars Q better chance.
