Death of John Perica.

John Perica died very suddenly at
his home, 30 South Oak street, Tues
day evening. Mr.. Perica came home
about 5:l5 apparently in his usual
health and spirits, sat down by the fire,
and fell asleep. His family attempted
to rouse him for supper, and failing to
do so sent for physicians. Drs. Hume
and Phippen induced artificial respira-
ton, but as Mr.. Perica was dead when
they arrived their efforts to revive him
were unavailing.
Owing to the similarity of symptoms

nings and Harry Cole A verdict of
death from hemorrbage of the brain
was rendered Wednesday. as the testi.
mony of physicians and others pointed
concIusively in that direction.
Deceased was 4S years of age and
leaves wife and four childi en-. Mrs.
VIM. Byerly, of Frankfort, Nelson
Perica, Of Jackson, and Edward and
Nellie of this city. Mr.. Perica was
carpenter nv trade, and had been sever.
al years in f F. Dudley's employ, lately
however. working for N Miesen He
carried $4,000 insurance in the Modern
Woodmen. A striking coincidence is
the TACT that two Of Mr.. Perica's
brothers died In almost exactly the
same way he did. The funeral will be
held from the house this afternoon.

Two Rural Routes for Shaftsburg


A year ago Inspector Daboll laid two
rural free mail routes from the Shafts.
burg post Office. Owing to objections
from neighboring offices final report
was not made upon the routes and the
matter has been pending since. On
Tuesday Mr.. Daboll visited Shaftsburg,
Congressman Fordney having obtained
a special order, and as result the ques-
ton Of the territory to be covered was
satisfactorily adjusted and the establish
ment of the two routes will be recon-
mended. Chas. Harvey and Chas.
Cakes were sworn in as carriers. The
routes will probably start about March
1st. The entire township of Woodruff
will be practically covered by free
delivery when this service is started.

Burton Farmers Club.

The morning of the fifth of Decenl-
Der dawned with weather as near per.
feet as even farmers could ask for, and
the ride in the crisp air prepared US to
enjoy the warmth and cheer awaiting
US at the home of our host and hostess
Mr.. and Mrs. g. L. Mason. The pre-.
gram as usual was good, but the repor-
ter's notes "came TO grief" and her
memory is short. We remember how.

cussion about the care and feeding Of
stock, when the invitation came to al
journ to the dining room where we sooK
found that our own wants had been
abundantly provided for by our hostess.

lost all interest for US. 1t was resumed
later however, together with the merits
of the silo, but this subject is to receive
further attention at some future meet

with the question before them, Which
is best, that the government or. the
banks issue our paper money,
Mr.. Doane thought the only safe way
is for the government to issue it. Some
explanations and remarks were made
by Mr.. Mason and others. The gener-
al sentiment / believe was that the
present system is as near right as we
can get it, After this subject was dis
posed of it seemed necessary that We

ever, and no one was hurt. After re-
citation by Miss Eta Doane, and the
disposal Of some business that needed
attention, we were ready for the next
subject
Would it he best to add the ninth and
tenth grades to our district schools.
Mrs Woodin read paper favoring this
and expressing the belief that the time
is coming when our boys and girls will
not need to go to the city to study book
keeping and botany. Mrs. Love and
Mrs. Doane however thought it cheaper
and better to send to the city schools,
when through with the common
branches. a.
The subject for our next meeting will
be, Sugar Beets versus Beans. The
ladies are to give US some historical
sketches. Club will me ct with Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Love the first Friday in
