THOROUGH INVESTIGATION
REQUESTED.
A BOLD ASSERTION.

Ever since Prof. Koch startled the world
BY promising to cure consumption with the
Koch lymph and his complete failure to do

discovery which would prove an absolute,
certain cure for that dread disease. Over Z
quarter of century ago Dr. R. v. Pierce,
chief consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, put in claim
for medicine, which he had discovered
and used, in his extensive practice, that
would cure ninety-eight per cent. of all cases
of consumption when taken In all its early
stages Time has proved that his assertion
was based on facts gained from experience.
His Golden Medical Discovery F" has cured
many thousand people in all parts of the
world, and Dr. Pierce invites all interested
to send to him for free book which gives
the names, addresses and photographs of
testified to the marvellous curative proper.

OF Well Known Cincinnati Undertaken,
who Resisted Arrest.
CINCINNATI, Dec 16-Fred Miller,
the undertaken on Harrison avenue,
Fairmount, was shot and killed at
noon Saturday. Tho shooting was
done by Newton Carter, marshal Of
Westwood. Miller expired almost in.
stantly.
Friday Miller went to westwood,
and. entering Herron's livery stable,
deliberately hitched up team Of
horses to q wagon and drove of.
Heron attempted to recover his prop.
erty, but failed, and swore out writ
of replevin.
The document was placed in the
hands of a constable, who went out
Saturday morning to serve the war.
rant He found Miller and a man
named Charles Stanley. The con.
stable met with resistance, and
when the two attempted to assault
him the officer drew his revolver and
fred several shots. Miller was instant
ly killed and Stanley was shot in the
head and badly wounded.
A short time ago Miller got into
trouble in Indiana, when he sold LOT
of stolen buggieA
The vehicles were stolen from resi-.
dents of Westwood, and were traced by
detectives hired by the victims.
For a long time owners of horses
and buggies in and around Westwood
were annoyed by thieves who broke
open their stables and in most cases
stole only buggies. The robberies be-
came SO frequent that something had
to be done, and an officer was employ
ed to find the thieves.
The detective soon learned that
Miller at various times shipped bug
gies by the car load to little town in
Indiana.
A trip was made there, and on a farm
the stolen buggies were found. All
had been repainted and fixed up sc
that many of them could hardly be
identified by their owners.

and simple burial services of Allen G.
Thurman were held at the family resi-
dence at Washington avenue and Rich
street Saturday morning. There were
many more present than could be ad-
mitted to the commodious house, not
withstanding the private character Of
the funeral A profusion of flowers
covered the space about the coffin,
which was placed in the archway
leading from the room the deceased
had occupied and that occupied by his
son, Allen w. Thurman. At the re.
quest of the family It was not disclosed
from whom these came.

sons present were ex-Gov. Campbell

Services at the house were conduct
by Rev. ]. L. Grover, himself eighty
nine years old, and close friend Of
the deceased. Rev. Grover officiated
at the funeral of Mrs Thurman, three
years ago. and the service deeply inn
pressed Judge Thurman, who at that
time requested Rev. Grover to repeat
it at his funeral. The service
consisted of the reading of the
reading of special funeral rite,
reading from the Fifteenth chapter
of 1st Corinthians, ''Now is Christ
risen and became the first fruits of
them that slept" followed by the ben
ediction. After all those present had
withdrawn and left the family alone
with the dead, Rev. Grover again Of
fered prayer, and the family having
withdrawn the residence was thrown
open and those who had not been able
to gain admission were permitted to
pass through the halls and view the
remains.
Rev. Grover announced that the serv-
ices would be concluded privately at
the grave by Rev. E. L. Rexford, of the
Universalist church. The remains
were inferred in Greenlawn cemetery
by the side of his wife.
The pail bearers were Grandsons A
L. Thurman, Allen G. Thurman and
Gwynne T. Jordan, of Urbana;
Nephews McEldin Dun, of Bellefon.
taine, and John G. Dun, of Colum bus,
and the faithful colored body servant
Joseph Matthews.
The casket was plain but elegant,
covered with black broad-cloth, one OF
the Chancellor style, with oxidized ex'
tension bars, running the entire length
of the casket. The following inscrip.
tion appeared on plain silver plate
on the casket:
"ALLEN CRANBERRY THURMAN,
Born November 13, 1913,
Died December 12, 1896"
In the casket the remains of Judge
Thurman appeared as natural as life
His last illness was free from any Sc
we're ravages of disease, and the sturdy
rugged impression of his face has not
disappeared, but was quite as natural
as ever.
