Death of Rabbi Wechslcr.

The funeral of Rev. DR.. Wechsler,
formerly rabbi for the Congregation
Mishkan Israel in this. city, will be
held to-day in Indianapolis, where he
died on Tuesday. The cause of death
was hardening of the arteries.
For the last two and half years he

the meetings of several Protestant de-
nominations, taking part in the dis
cussions.

Protestant Ministers association, the
Methodist Ministers association, and
Of the Christian Ministers association
in Indianapolis.
He leaves a widow and four chill
dren, one being an adopted daughter,
athe wife of Rabbi Samuel Sonnen-
schein, of st. Louis. The other chill
dren are DR. II. Wechsler Of Indian
apolis; Philip Wechsler, Of Chicago,
and Mrs Ray Schwab, of New Orleans,
La.
Judah Wechler was born in Bavaria
in 1882 and was educated at Heitlel-
burg, Germany. Before coming to
this country, fifty years ago, he was
for few years in charge of a Hebrew
congregation in Germany His first
charge in the United States was at
Portsmouth, O., from which place he
went to Indianapolis, from 1851 to
1865. Following this he was at Rich
mond, Va, 1864-67; again at Indian
apolis, 1S67-69; Columbus, O.. 1869
~; New Haven, ten years; st. Paul,
ten years, and Meridian, Miss,
He returned to Indianapolis, with
rapidlysfai1ing eyesight, on august 2,
1897, after which time he made his
home there. On November Is, 1905,
he and his aged wife celebrated their
golden wedding at the home of their
son, DIR. H. Wechsler

A subject for general discussion
among the habitues of the Grand ave-
nue. drawbridge is why is there not
law to protect the crabs, as there is
to guard against taking Holsters from
the water at certain periods?" There
should be a law against taking crabs
until they have matured," said one of
the oldest rivermen. Say about Sep
terbem Is would be the right time to
allow grabbing. You see men taking
them when they are very young and
have only white shell on them and
at this stage are of no use. The crabs
should be given a chance to shed and
grow their shells and we would have
crabs a-plenty then. Some of our leg
islators who have some sporting blood
in their veins should attend to this
matter at the next session of the legis-
lature."
