OBITUARY.

Died:-At her residence in lola, at
nine o'clock Sunday evening, July
25th of congestion of the stomach,
Matilda J wife of Fred Heilman, in
the 41st year of her age.
Mrs. Heilman had been feeling i'll
for a day or two, but had no thought
of her illness being serious. She was
feeling some better Sunday evening
and retired early, expecting good
nights rest, and when Mr.. Heilman
went to retire he found her dead. 1t
is severe shock to Mr.. Heilman as
he was very much devoted to his
wife, and the devotion was reciprO-
Gated by her. She was kind hearted
and generous, always ready to help
the needy, and as a result of her
many acts of charity and kindness
leaves a large circle of friends to
mourn her loss.
The funeral services were held in
the Christian church Wednesday af-
ternoon, under the auspices of the
Order of Select Friends and the An
Gent Order of Pyramids. Rev.
VIM. Hawkins, officiating.

OUR ANNUAL FAIR
Is the Next Big Thing on the Program
and the Indications now are
that we will Have a
Big Time.
GOOD RACES AND A GOOD TIME
There will be Good Races, Good Prem.
iumS and Every Good Thing that
il Takes to Make a
Successful Fair.

The dates for the Big Fair this year
have been fixed for September T. 8, 8,
and 10, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday.
There has not been very much talk
in public as yet about our Fair this
fall, but the officers of the Association
have been busily engaged in getting
up the premium list and doing other
preliminary work that is the begin
ming of the largest and best Fair ever
held in Allen County. And that is
saying a good deal, for the last two
Fairs that have been held in lola
have been unrivaled successes, but
this year the premium list and the
speed program have been enlarged,
and everything now points toward
the most favorable termination of any
previous fair.
Allen county is blessed with good
crops this year and there is nothing
to hinder us from having one of the
best displays ever shown in the State.
Our land is in very great demand just
now and what better advertisement
could be made of the values of such
land than a display of the splendid
products of the county.
We earnestly hope that every
farmer in Allen county will have
something on exhibition. There is
danger that in the very abundance of
material we may make but a poor
showing. Each farmer may think
that there will be so much better pro-
ducts shown than he has that it is
useless for him to bring any and that
if he fails to secure a premium his
trouble and time are thrown away.
Nothing could be farther from facts.
Every exhibitor will leave a record
that may be worth many times its
cost and trouble.
Make at least one exhibit.

The young people of the Baptist
church gave an ice cream and cake
social at the hospitable home of Mr.
M. l.. Decker last Friday evening
1t was quite a success socially and
financially.
Mrs. VIM. Clarke and daughter
Fannie, Of Lawrence, were in lola a
few hours last Saturday the guests OF
Mrs. s. A. Gard. They were on their
way home from Bronson where they
had been visiting relatives.
The band boys gave their usual
weekly concert last Friday evening
in the park and played several new
pieces. These concerts are getting
very popular and the music lovers
come up town on Fridays to hear the
music.
Orie Smith, the young man who
drives the Commercial hotel hack,
slept out in front of the hotel last
Saturday night on Get and some
one came along and relieved him of
his watch. He must be full hand
at sleeping.
So far as we know there has been
no emigrsnts from lola to the newly
discovered gold fields of Alaska.
There is plenty of gold right here in
lola if a man wants to work for it,
and there is plenty of work if man
wants that, too.
about the funniest thing we have
seen for long time was H. Klaumann
trying to ride a bicycle last Friday
evening. His feet only touched the
pedals about half the time and the
rest of the time he looked as if he
were trying tOfly.
Mr.. J. j. Marshall, of FIT. Scott,
came over Saturday morning and
was the guest of his father-in-law,
Mr.. 1. o. Peck. He returned to his
home Monday morning accompanied
by his wife and baby, who have been
visiting here for some time.
There are other places in the world
where it is "hOtter" than it is in Kan
sas. f. X. Taylor was in Fairfield,
Iowa, last Thursday and he says that
on the east side of building where
it was shady and the wind was blow
ing the thermometer registered los.
How would you like to live there?
When Mrs. w. G.. Parkinson and
Mrs. G.. NJ. Richards were driving to
town Wednesday from Mr.. MOnforts.
where they had been visiting, their
horse cramped the buggy near North
rup's ford and threw both the ladies
out. Mrs. Richards was pretty badly
bruised and was confined to her bed
yesterday morning.
Walter Hull, Bert Mitchell and
Rick Hankins went down to FredOnia
last Saturday afternoon and stayed
over Sunday with the campers at
Timbered Hills. The boys grow elO-
quent in their praises of the delight
full manner in which they were en-
tertained, saying they had the most
enjoyable visit OF their lives.

/ fore him and have them tell what
they know about the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
of the prOhibitOry law at Humboldt.
Last weeks paper said the law was
not enforced there, and that is what
the editor of the REGISTER said that
filled the County Attorney so full
of wrath.

Some how we have come to the con-
clusion that the apple crop around
lola is a partial, if not a complete
failure this year, because last year
ere this time NJ. P. Jacoby had been
up here in the REGISTER Office with q
big box full of fine, sweet, yellow
apples and left them here at the dis
posal of the printers. That is why
we are forced to said conclusion. And
there must be something the matter
with Mr.. Monfort's watermelons. too.
j. G. Woodin's little daug liter had
a very narrow escape yesterday after
noon. Mr.. WoOdin had driven up to
Klaumann's and left his little girl in
the buggy, when the horse started
off. 1t ran through the alley in the
rear of the court house and down in
front of the laundry, when some men
tried to head the horse off. 1t turned
suddenly, threw the little girl out.

The little girl was not much hurt.
but the buggy was pretty badly
broken up.
Don Buchanan decided that he
would not let Carl Williamson have q
corner on the wheel renting business,
So he rented his. Dean Allison rent
ed it and after he had ridden to his
hearts content he went to see his
girl and sent the wheel home by Cliff
Reed. Cliff saw something interest
ing on his way home with the wheel
and dismOunting left the wheel lying
in the road while he went to investi-
gate While he was thus engaged
Julius Kruger came along with q
horse and buggy and not seeing the
wheel drove over it, and he didn't
do a thing to it," Don Buchanan
