Dea:ss of Prominent
United Brethren Pastor
Special to The Telegrdbh


The Rev. Henry S. Gabel, D. D.,
pastor of the United Brethren Church
at Mt Joy, died very suddenly at the
parsonage at that place on Wednes-
day morning. He was 54 years old.
DIR. Gabel was one of the most promi-
nent and highly esteemed clergymen
of the denomination, and his sudden
departure was a great shock to his
family and his many friends. The de-
ceased was a native of Lebanon, in
which city he resided a number of
years. He is survived by his wife and
the following children: Mrs. Jennie
Redrier, of Holton, Kansas; DR.. Paul
Gabel, of Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. Amy De
Priest. of Dayton, Ohio, and Miss Su-
san Gabel, at home.
DR.. Gabel was received into the
East Pennsylvania conference in 1882,
and as a pastor served the following
charges: Catawissa, Philadelphia,
Pinegrove. Lykens Circuit, and Leba-
non Salem. In 1894 he was elected as
presiding elder of the conference,
which position he held for eleven
years. In 1905. at a general confer
ence held at Topeka, Kansas, he was
elected church erection secretary and
served the entire denomination in this
capacity for eight years, residing at
Dayton, Ohio. Last October he again
entered the active pastorate and was
assigned to Mt. JOY. He was a dele
gate to the general conferences of
1898, 1897 and 1901, and was one of
the founders of the Mt. Gretna Camp
meeting Association. He also served
as trustee of Lebanon Valley College.
DR.. Gabel was an able preacher
quiet and unassuming in his manners
and possessed remarkable administra-
tive and executive ability, and his loss
will be keenly felt by the entire de-
nomination.
The funeral will be held at Mt. Joy
on Friday evening. On Saturday af-
ternoon his body will be taken to
Dayton, Ohio, where the principal SER
vice will be held

TO the People of the Fourth Con-
QreSsiondl District

gressiondl District
Though defeated in the cam
paign closing yesterday, | wish to
assure the people of the District
that I have no complaint to make,
no grievance to air. Almost to-
tai stranger to you, [ made the
very best campaign possible for
me to make in the limited time
left me after the adjournment of
the Legislature and clearing up
the accumulated business of my
Office.
The campaign, by me and against
me, is known to all, and comment
on the last three weeks thereof is
unnecessary.
[ have made some friends more
than worth the time, anxiety and
expense-good men and true
who came and helped me through
out the campaign. A life time
would not suffice to pay the debt
of gratitude [ owe to them.
To those who withstood the
storm and voted for me, return
nv heartfelt thanks; for those who
voted against me, can truthfully
say, I have not the slightest i'll
will or criticism.
To all, for courtesies extended
and kindnesses shown, I lift my
hat.
Yours respectfully,
S. A. MORRISON.

A Successful Farmer

Mr.. Louis Blanchard twelve years
ago bought the Fourboul farm on the
upper Chippewa river then supposed
to be on the outskirts of civilization.
He had only one hundred dollars to
pay down but he had what was bet
ter, plenty of energy and not afraid
of work Today he has the farm
clear, II head of horses, 20 cattle,
Is hogs and sixty acres cleared and
holds the place at $4,000 He raised
on three acres and half, twelve
hundred bushels OF potatoes and
picked 1,700 baskets of corn from
fourteen acres. Are you surprised
that everybody is talking about the
possibilities of Chippewa county?
There are great possibilities for the
young men or women who have the
courage to cut out the easy life and
will go to work Their chances are
better today than they will be twen-
ty-five years from now.

ment to be given here January 6, un-
der the name of the Norfleet Sis

The two sisters who give the name
to this talented company are musi-

be attested by all who had the pleas
ure of listening to them last year
this being a return number.
Helen Lucille Norfleet is a pianist,
while her sister, Catharine Marie,
is a violinist. They are already so
favorably known here that little more
need be said.
Helen and Catharine Norfleet be-
gan their musical careers at the ages
OF three and four, at which time
their talent became 50 pronounced
that they were allowed to give occa-
sional public recitals and caused
much excited comment among tn
musical circles of the middle west.
They were not, however, permitted
to continue concert work, but led
the quiet lives of normal childhood
until they were placed in the seclu-
sion Of a Southern Conservatory
where they studied seriously for a
number of years, taking at the same
time a college course in Arts and

Private Letter from War District

Carl Jung, proprietor of the Vienna
Bakery, of this city, has received a
letter, dated Nov. 21st, from near
Iluxemburg, Germany, that brings
home to one the grievous sacrifice
called for by the Moloch of war.
1t is from Mrs. Dorothea Lukas, a
cousin of Mrs. Jung, and although
the writer has, as yet, seen none of
the enemy, she has given a son-in-
law and two sons to the army one
son, 20 years old, having been draft
ed. At that date, one soldier from
Mrs. Lukass town had been killed
and several wounded. And although
the place has a population of only
25O, it has contributed 35 to the
struggle and twenty more are ready
to be mustered in.

GERMANS ADVANCE
TEUTONS RECAPTURE MLAWA,
AFTER SEVERAL DAYS
FIGHTING
SIEGE OF CRACOW is RAISED
AS Russians Stop Germans at One
Point They Advance at Others

BERLIN, Dec 24-After several
days fighting, Mlawa, in northern Po-
land, has been re-captured by the
Germans 1t was in this region that
the Germans were repulsed recently,
withdrawing to east Prussia.
LONDON, Dec. 23-In Poland the
center of interests has shifted slight
ly south. Finding the direct road to
Warsaw blocked by Russian rein
forcements, the Germans made an at
tack from the southwest and have
reached Skierniewice, which is some
forty miles from the Polish capital.
They have thus far failed to pierce
the Russian lines, but have forced
Grand Duke Nicholas to withdraw
his forces from before Cracow. In
this, one of the chief aims of their
offensive against Russia, the Germans
have been successful.
In Galicia, Russia has resumed the
offensive against the Austro-German
forces, which have poured in from
the west and across the Carpath-
ans According to the latest Petro-
grad report, the Russians have in
flicted heavy losses on these forces,
while in the north they have pur-
sued into the interior of East Prus-
sia a small German army, which
made a feint at Warsaw from the
northwest.

Expert, on Rusk Co. Farmers

The editor of Hoard's Dairyman, in
connection with comment upon the
recent convention of the State Dairy
Association, held in this city, says:
"The farmers in the vicinity of La
dysmith showed deep interest in
the convention They also brought
something to it. They have not
been farming long enough to have
fixed ideas regarding the operations
of dairy farming, and their minds are
still open to new and better ways of
conducting their farms"
"The northern portion of Wiscon-
sin is pre-eminenly a dairty section.
The soil is good, when it is once
cleared and in cultivation. The meth
DDS of farming are somewhat differ
ent than in what might be termed
the prairie sections of Wisconsin, and
of this, a different style of farming
is followed here than in the south
ern part of the state. Small grain
does we'll in this section, but owing
to the small clearings it is not as
profitable a crop to grow as those
perhaps requiring little more la
Dor to produce. Glover grows like a
weed in this section. 1t is not on
ly good for the soil, but it is splen-
did feed for the dairy COW. Roots do
exceptionally well. AS high as 1000
to 1900 bushels are grown per acre.
Roots and clover hay form the foun-
dation for a splendid ration. Corn
does we'll, yielding large amount OF
feed for the silo"
