GovernOr-Elect Dockery, of Mis-
souri, announces that the wine rooms
of st. Louis must be abolished. and he
will receive cordial support in carrying
out his resolutions in that direction
The GlCIbe-Democrat in commencing
the Governor speaks of the wine rooms
as follows:
They spare the young of neither sex,
They are schools of crime and dis
honor. On the verge of manhood ami
womanhood the youthful are seduced
to enter them and the depraved are at
hand to use every enticement to break
down moral restraint. The wine room

them with open doors. Young girls are
ruined there systematically and
shipped elsewhere on standing orders
Cases of this kind have been exposed

Died.

At his home on Mann Creek, the night OF
February 5th, Andrew Riggs, aged
81 years.
Funeral services were held at the Baptist
church in Weiser at 2 O'Clock p. m,
Thursday, February 7th, and remains
buried in Weiser cemetery.
Mr.. Riggs has been merchant of
Weiser for many years and was closely
identified with its business interests,
ranking among the first for integrity
and business ability. As merchant
he occupied an eminent position and
only retired when falling health adj
monished him that time called for q
rest from labor. He had been suf
ferer from chronic trouble for many
years.
He was married to the wife who
survives him AZ years ago, and leaves
family Of eight children--seven
boys and one girl-Addie, now Mrs.
Ben Hopper-and at the time of his
death all we're present at the bedside.
This is in itself remarkable fact, as
in this active age families are prone
to drift apart, and the graves of our
households are often far divided
A good man was Andrew Riggs
and of whom none could justly speak
an i'll word. When, as the days with
him began to shorten, and he could
look ahead and see the time near al
hand when the burden should be cast
aside, he left the busy scenes of life,
and, in the quiet of a rural home,
calmly waited for the end, not with
complainings, but with resignation
passing, rs a man should, from this
to the hereafter-hand in hand with
with the loved and faithful com
panlOn OF nail century, ana only

her, as the lonely one, our human

broken But only little longe
in the twilight, then sleep. Morn
ing will break in all it's golden glory
and the hand she loosed here will b.

other shore beyond the river.
Life's ftful fevers DER, he sleep

the confidence and respect of his
felIowmen. He has been in poor
health for long time, and yet his

its course he finally was forced to the
Hborder- land" where he has been
living for over a year. During this
time he had several sinking attacks
but always rallied On the fatal
morning the family had arisen, pre-
pared and eaten their breakfast and
proceeding to arouse the father found
that the spirit had taken its flight,
leaving the corpse with look OF
peaceful sleep.
Mr.. Mickey was born in Shelby,
RichIand Co., Ohio, on May %,
1910. When but small boy his
father moved to Biggsville, Hender
son Co., ILL.,, where the deceased re
NAMED until nineteen years of age

and two daughters, one of the latte
being dead.
