! OBITUARY ::
Gertrude Sellers
!. 4. 4. f. 4. 4. 4. 4. 4. 4. + r !,

The funeral services of Gertrude
Sellers, deceased, were held at 1890
o'clock, Wednesday morning, January
4, at the home of ner father, William
II. Sellers. Interment was made in
Owl Creek Cemetery.
Frances Gertrude Sellers, the
daughter Of Elizabeth Campbell and
William Sellers, was born at Brook
side Farm, southeast of Mt. Vernon,
March 20, 1880. She was the eldest
of four children and when about IA
years of age, many responsibilities
came upon her with the death of her
mother in 1894. However, she con-
tinued attending the district school
until she passed the Boxwell examina-
tion in 1896, after which she entered
the Mt. Vernon High school and grad
uated with the class of 1900.
During the four years she lived In
Mt. Vernon she attended the Baptist
church and there was converted and
baptized by Rev. G. j. Rose during the
winter of 1897.
For one year she attended school at
College for Women, Western Reserve
University, Cleveland, Ohio, then re-
turning to her fathers home, she bus
led herself for three years in giving
music lessons, and In work In the Owl
Creek Baptist church to which she
had transferred her membership.
She had always been an unusually
strong and well young woman, pos
sessing much endurance until after
some exposure, she was afflicted with
a heavy cold which settled into a per-
manent cough causing her to go to
Colorado Spring, February %, 1906,
to seek restoration to health.
After several months treatment she
was dismissed from the Nordrack
Ranch Sanatorium as temporarily cur
ed. While remaining at Colorado
Springs she was taken III with la
grippe which weakened her greatly.
Several succeeding attacks Of la
grippe made 1t impossible for her to
regain strength sufficient to remove
the cause of her cough. Disease sap
ped her strength until she passed
away December 30, 1910, at the Clock
ner Sanatorium.
Through all her life she was most
estimable and lovable, Christian
young woman, making many friends
wherever she went During the four
years and ten months she was In Col.
orado her cheerfulness and hopeful
ness seemed unending. Daily, friends
would call upon her and always keep
her supplied with fruit and flow
ers. Her bright, sweet ways soon
caused the Baptist minister, DR.
Franklin, and others to name and
call her Sunshine" Her Christian
character was strikingly brought out
In the fact that when she went tc
Colorado Springs, she Joined the b
Y. p. U. of the Baptist church and
was present at every regular meet
ing either In person or by proxy an
swerlng to the roll call with n verse
of Scripture.

SUFFRAGE MEETINGS
HELD IN LANCASTER
Miss Linda Rhodes VIII Head
County Association.
Visit of Mrs. Emma Smith De Voc Gave
Decided Impetus to Movement in
This Locality.

The movement for Women's Suf-
frage in Wisconsin received decided
impetus in this locality from the
visit of Mrs. Emma Smith DeVoe of
Washington, president of the Ma
tional Council of Women voters. Mrs.
DeVoe spent two very strenuous days
in Lancaster, Saturday and Sunday,
during which she neId four meetings,
and fostered the organization of a
Grant county association.
The Grant county association was
the outcome of a mass meeting held
at the G.. A. r. hall on Saturday
afternoon. Miss Linda Rhodes was
unanimously chosen to head the as
ISOLATION, and empowered to appoint
committees and perfect an organlza-
ton. This she will do in the very
near future. The election of Miss
Rhodes was a tribute both to her own
activity in behalf of Woman's Suf-
frage in Wiscon sin, and to the
services rendered by her mother, who
until her death, was president Of the
Grant county political equality
league, having held that office for
more than dozen years.
Mrs DeVoe left Lancaster Monday
morning for Racine, where she will
be the guest of Mrs. Olympia Brown,
head of the Woman's Suffrage cause
in Wisconsin. Before leaving. she
expressed herself as greatly pleased
with the success of the four meetings
held in Lancaster, commenting with
particular enthusiasm on the meeting
held Sunday afternoon at the Con.
gregational church and the one held
Sunday evening at the Methodist
church.
Mrs. D9Voe who is a national
/ figure, is not a militant suffragette il

is her hobby. To her, mora than tt

searched and questioned the 24o men,

fore any were allowed shore leave.
the police instituted a careful watch
OF pawnshops and customs officers
were particularly thorough in passing
the luggage of passengers disembark-

Mrs. Drummond and her husband,
London banker and sportsman, de-
cided to stay over in New York m
definitely to direct the search and
Mrs. Drummond said she would will
ingly give at least $4,000 reward for
the return of the gems.
1t was remarked by those who eN-
amined the Drummond stateroom to-
day that 1t might have been very easy
for a person at all familiar with Mrs.
Drummond's habits to have stolen the
/ jewels. The door which she left un-

while 1t has been pointed out that the
