The Tragic Death of Fannie
McManus.

The manner in which the sum-
mons came to Fannie McManus, the
bright, sweet, thirteen-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. j. Trapp
MoManus, suggests and emphasizes
the thought that "a thousand doors
lead to death" Whether ia the
peaceful slumbers of the night or
languishing upon tue bed of Attic
ton, OF pursuing ones regular du-
ties, when God calls, in his own
time and way, we must go hence to
fill the place He has prepared for US
in that upper and better world.
Just before nightfall Friday, Fan
ME, who was always willing to do
her full share of the little duties in
cident to the homelife, went out to
the we'll for a bucket of water.
While IN the act of drawing the
water from the well, the shelter
above the we'll fell upon her, knock
ing her backward to the ground and
crushing her head. Hearing Fan
MES cry of distress, her father rushed
Immediately to her assistance, pill
lowing Aer bruised and bleeding
head upon his breast. And from
the bosom of her earthly father,
who would have given his life for
her had it been possible to restore
her life. Fannie's spirit took lis
flight to her Heavenly Father. She
never spoke nor regained conscious
ness after being struck. A physi-
clan was summoned by telephone,
but life was extinct in a few min
utes, the serious nature of the
wound making it impossible for hu-
man efforts to save her even had
medical skill been Immediately
available.
No little girl in the community
was more genuinely beloved than
was Fannie McManus. Always
quiet, gentle, amiable, sweet-temp-
cred, never speaking i'll of anyone,
she drew her associates to her in a
way that made lasting friends Of
them. Little wonder then that the
announcement that her sudden and
tragic death caused universal sor-
row. The sympathy of the entire
community has gone out to the
grief-stricken parents and the entire
household. Fannie was a member
of the Methodist church, and while
she only recently united with the
church she was steadily developing
into strong Christian character.
Frequently when the hour arrived
for family prayer she would read q
favorite chapter from the Bible.
She was regular attendant upon
Sunday school and was one of the
brightest members of her class.
The floral tributes were particu-
larly beautiful. Besides pretty de-
signs from the Methodist Sunday
schonl and the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, there were a
large number from individual
friends. The members of Fannie's
class IN the graded school attended
her funrral in body. The funeral
was conducted at the Methodist
church saturday afternoon by Rev.
J. R. VI Nalker, assisted by DR.. M.
D. jeff rs and Rev. Z. C. Bailey,
The burial took place Immediately
after the funeral in the village GEM
etery.
"Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north
winds breath.
And stars to set-but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own,
o Death. -

NONE OF THE PARTIES
HAVE NAMED TICKET
Progressives, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis in EIlIhart Wait for
Other Fellow.

ELKHART. Ind. Sept. LEADERS
Of the city organizations Of the demo-
cratic. republican and progressive
parties are engaged in a unique strife
at the present time-that Of sparring
for an alleged advantage in the COM
ing city campaign in being the last
TO name the list Of their respective
nominees.
The bull moosers had originally set
their convention date for Aug. 5. the
party's first birthday, but this was
quickly changed.
Although the election is but two
months away. none OF the organiza-
ton chairmen will admit that there is
the least chance Of endangering a vic
tory for their respective party, but
assert that the campaign is TO be
short and sweet"
The publication Of the names Of the
10 citizens who form the republican
executive committee for the city cam
paign has caused the bull moosers
much unrest for among the number
were men whom progressive party
leaders counted as good mayoralty
timber. Among these were Herman
Borneman and II. 3. Sykes.

WILKE CLAIMS RIGHT
TO HOMELY MANS PRIZE

Fake" cries Chuck Wilke at the
Homeliest Mans contest recently pull
ed off by the Business Mems associa-
ton. Wilke claims that the associa-
ton failed TO notify him that they
were going TO stage the event and that
as he was in the wilds of Canada he
was unable to enter in the race.
Wilke pointed with pride TO the
muStache that has placed added
charm to his countenance since the
Temagami trip and said that he would
bet any money at any odds that he
could win the prize were it staged
now. The genial sign-artist asks that
the Business Mems association ponder
over their mistake and run the con-
test over again so that he may enter
and as he promises, win the ribbon.

TREAT OF SHOW
Racing MOtOrCyCIiStS Prove a
Drawing Card of Carnival
Ball Walking Stunt Loses
None of Popularity.

Nothing new transpired at the car
nival Thursday night but the routine
amused several thousand visitors.
The motordrom proved the big draw
ing card of the evening. Dare Devil
Dan" OF Cincinnati, and Cyclone
Fred" Of Denver, Col, raced around
the steep incline at a terrific rate Of
speed TO the delight Of cheering
crowds. Twin Merkle and Indian
motorcycles are used by the drivers.
Both are high-pOwered machines,
the Merkle showing up 10 the best
advantage Thursday. Some of the
tricks Of the daring drivers are riding
about the steep grade without holding
the bars and sitting astride the seat
OF the wheel
The dip Of death" is another fea-
ture. The rider shoots from the top
of the drome to the floor and mounts
again TO the top with incredible swift
ness.
The Electric Fountain" drew well
as did Western Days" The line of
fakes along the midway did a good
business. Popular with the women
and children were the doll and Teddy
raffes.
The ball walking act Of Phil Greene
proved the same crowd drawing act
that it has been during the week.
The manufacturers exhibit in the
Textile building also proved a great at
traction Thursday. Practically all Of
the exhibitors had men in charge of
their booths and their demonstrations
OF the local manufactured articles was
treat for the many who had never
become familiar with Mishawaka's

The singing and dancing trio are Of

at expressing II. Particularly is this
true Of Miss Marie Moran, the charm

dancing not alone pleases but whose
singing is also a cOmmendable feature.
The man with the voice" as Gala

himself The pictures are also good

NORTH SIDE PEOPLE
BOYCOTT CARNIVAL
Indignant Citizens Out EnmaSSe
Show Feeling Because of
South Side Location of the
Shows.

Indignant at the placing OF all car
ntval attractions on the south side OF
tho river, citizens OF the north side.
representing practically the entire
citizenship or this section OF the town
paraded through the streets OF the
city Thursday evening in an official
boycott OF the carnival and homecom-
Ing.
Tho delegation was headed by a
band In line were representative
business men OF the north side on foot
and n carriages. Several comic floats
followed the parade.
North Side demonstrating To-
night was one OF several OF the very
pointed signs carried on the floats and
wagons. Personality was added TO
the parade by the fact that the deliv-
cry wagons Of north side merchants.
with tho signs uncovered, found a
prominent part IN the parade.
'>Only Living White Elephant" and
a chicken In a cage were placed on
floats anH labeled free attractions
Hollow barrels were on other floats
and they were hammered by the pas
,sengers.
The parade vended it's way through
the carnival grounds and attracted
the attention OF the several thousand
assembled there. After 1t had passed
comments were many. A careful can
VaS5 or the latter revealed the fact the
north siders were not without SYM
patty among their south side neigh
bors
These who have anything to say
practically as unit expressed them
selves favorably on the parade and
stated that they believed the north
siders had a real kick" coming. 9th
ers disagreed with this. especially the
members Of the Business Mems asso-
citation. These latter said that the
carnival was located at the foot of
the bridge for the sole reason that
this place vas advantageous to both
sides OF the river. They also pointed
out that the balloon ascension was be-
ing held on the north side and that
they were doing all in their power to
distribute matters equally and show
no favorftism.
II has been evident for the past
week or so that there was feeling on
the part of many NORTH siders because
OF the carnival being on the south
side but no one realized that II had
reached the height which could
prompt the action taken Thursday
evening. II is not known whether or
not the parade will be the end in the
expression OF the north s.1ers indig-
nation.
