Musicale

AT the pleasant Miles home on Union
street last Wednesday evening, Miss
Miles entertained at musicale COM
plimentary to her guests, Mr.. Hocken-
hull and Miss HockenhulI, of Jackson
vile, Illinois, The gathering had been
very informally planned and it was
this very charm together with the
delightful personalities of the hostess
and her guests of honor which made the
evening the success it was.
As the first number Cd the program,
Miss Miles and Miss Hoekenhull ap.
peared In duet, The Return of the
Heroes, hearty encore to which re-
ceiveda graceful response from the
young ladies. Mr.. Hockcnhull follow
cd with the song, Why do the Nations
Rage, from the Messiah. Mr.. Hocken-
hull had been heard before by the
greater number Of those present on this
evening, and the listeners were In
measure prepared for the treat awaiting
them, but he sang with a depth and
resonance that was glorious and was
happy surprise to his hearers. He
gave several selections, Miss Hocken-
hull acting as his accompanist. Her
capabiiity in this rare accomplishment
was evidenced in her mastery of the
accompaniment in The Messiah solo.
The two piano solos given bv Miss
Ram were a delight to her listeners
and called forth many words OF appre-
citation.
Howard Ram sang, and as usual his
selections were chosen with rare good
taste and were gracefully rendered.
Light refreshments followed the pro-
gram and the evening terminated with
full many sigh that it is not mans lot
to meet in his days journey more often
with such hospitality and talent.

Obituary,

Obituary.
feel so sorry to record the death in
this issue of your paper of one who
was SO long resident of old Delaware
county, although at the time of his de-
mise, July SO, 1900, and for some time
past his home has been in Indepen-
dence.
Uncle stephe n Potter, as he was
familiarly known in his old neighbor
hood, was born in Saratoga county, N.
Y, May 9, 1924, and while still in his
youth went with his parents to Erie
county, where July s, 1851, he was mar
ried to Laura A. Brayton, a sister of
the late Matthias Brayton.
Mrs. Potter died at the old farm
home on Spring Branch fifteen years
ago, and Uncle Steve afterwards mar
ried Mrs. Emma Raymond Of this
town, who survives him.
An only son, Wallace Potter, resides
in Snip s, Colorado, but the telegram
sent to him was unanswered and he
was not present at the funeral.
MIR. Potter was Sick about fifteen
months, but his friends were not aware
that the end was near, for according to
his nature hew was jolly and light. hearted
to the last moment.
| Uncle Steve was one of the pioneer
settlers of Delaware county, having
emigrated to this county September 81,
1851, and settled on the old homestead
on Spring Branch, sharing the joys and
sorrows of early pioneer life with the
old neighbors, most of whom have pre-
coded him to the better land.
lie was good, kind neighbor and an
affectionate husband and father, and
many of his old time friends buried
him in the old hillside cemetery on the
Branch, among his fellow neighbOrs,
who long since laid down their burdens
of this weary world.
\ The Obsequies were held Wednesday
of last week at the Baptist church, the
Rev. VIM. Lusk officiating. The sub
ject of his discourse was something like
this: "Does death end alp which was
very ably handled.
| Mrs. Potter desires to thank all who
were Interested and kind to her and
hers during the trying ordeal, especially
! Uncle Ben Sheldon, who arranged for
everything. The mourners have the
sympathy of the community in their
sad ailliction.
Does death end allg Believe 1t not
Things earthly must depart
The mountains, Seas. and sun, and moon

But vast eternity, It's waves
u Forever on will roll.

The third game between the Man

was played on the home grounds hero
Tuesday afternoon of last week and
resulted in victory for the Manches,

Many critics of the game pronounced
it the best ever played on the grounds,
and the audience that witnessed the con.
test was the largest that has turned out
to see base ball game in this city for
many years.
The teams were very evenly m atched
and few ventured an opinion which
would win. 1t was anybodys game I'm

when Manchester increased her lead by
two scores, making her reasonably sure

Found Hanging to a Tree.


phe residents in hevicinity of Monti
were Mortified to hear of the discovery
on last Thursday of the body of man
who had probably ended his own life
by hanging.
The discovery was made in piece of
timber on the farm of John Mcdowell.
The remains had no doubt been there
for some time as the body was severed
from the head and lay on the ground
while the head still hung by the wire
which had been securely fastened to
the limb of tree. The remains wero
so badly decomposed that. it was i'm
possible to indentify thsm, tho clothes
worn by the dead man tally exactly
with the apparel worn by man who
recently worked for H. Brayton near
Barryvllle and left the latter's place
about four weeks ago, apparently in q
Respondent mood. The only articles
found in the dead mans pockets by the
coroner were pipe and penny, also

Prosperity tor the Farmers.

Crop authorities in Europe report very
probable shortage in the grain products OF
Enqland and France. The adverse conditions
affecting glain in these countries are likely to
extend TO other countries as we'll. Hence,
American breadstuffs are to be this year more
larqely drawn on than for many years previous.
With large European demand for American
grain and -four and an abundant crop in Amer
lea itself, such as that now in sight, prosperity
is assured to our farmers. This is not, how
ever, surprising. Prosperity is ever in close
touch with American politics. Cincinnati

How fortunate are the farmers that they have
a pious president to intercede with Almighty

We could not govern Cuba fOr Twelve Hohths
without stealing the money that belonged to
the people of that island. Our government OF
Cuba is supposed to be tempora Ty. God help
the people of Cuba if it becomes absolute un'
der hog governors.
England has reduced hog government to
science. Her ruling class, with the exception
OF few men like Wilborforce, Gladstone and
John Bright, have cultivated the hOg aature.
English dynasties were founded in blood by
freebooters and adventures. Her tD1ays ana
brutality are little more refined than tornedty,
and perhaps she administers little IN ore just
ice, but results are the same as of olde n times.
Ethiopia is not stretching out her hands to
God under English rule, and the swill-t1ough,
to the people of India is as dry as an old bone.
Famine is more merciful to the people of lndia
than English rule, because misery is not OF IN
definite duration when famine sways the stnptre.
Die and end the misery is the mandate OF fam

England has no more right to the territory
she is now seizing than l have right to the
sessions is not whit better. That English
rule has ever made any people happier or bet

American hogs would initiate England
would ally themselves to the original razor-back
would seize other peoples territory and sub

ton. The enemy of Washington and repub-
lies is to become the bosom friend Of the Han
mates. The men who prayed that treason
might sweep Old Glory from the hourzon OF
nations cheer Old Glory when hogs swing her
to the breeze. The present is very different
from the past. Greed points to Imperialism
to oneman power-to a government of the
few, by the few and for tine few.
