WOLGAST'S HAND
WAS IN BAD SHAPE

st. Paul Dispatch: T. S. Andrews,
the Milwaukee boxing authority, says
AID Wolgast had no right to go into
the ring at all when he fought Johnny
Tillman at Hudson, April %, as one Of
his hands was in bad shape. This is
what Andrews says:
':Ad Wolgast, the Michigan bearcat
as he is called, will probably be more
careful in the future as to the condi-
ton Of his hands when he is goins
into q match. There Is no denying the
fact that Wolgast Is one of the tough

PROGRESSIVE AID SOCIETY
FOR DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Philadelphia Inquirer: BY an In
teresting coincidence, at almost the
same time that the few Progressive
leaders we're meeting in Chicago and
debating to their followers what
should be done. one of the promin-
emit Democrats of the country was
making an address In Boston. He
was Colonel George Harvey. prob
ably the first man to bring out
Woodrow Wilson as a presidential
candidate. and one OF the men who
had most to do with putting him in
the white house. There Is no doubt
either OF Colonel Harvey's Demo-
cracy or OF his political sagacity.
I'VE Democrats" said he In this
address, have very kindly feel
ing for the Progressives. We admire
and respect them. We appreciate the
way they adhere to their conglom-
Grafton of principles. Not that we
really espouse their lively doctrines.
We care nothing about their odd
notions one way or the other. We
do not want them to come to US. All
we ask of the Progressives is to
stand pat as independents and keep
on helping US to save the country.
We need them in our business, and
IL there is anything we can do by
way of encouragement, they have
only to give the familiar call to get
all the help we can give"
That is a statement and a picture
that Is much more worthy of the at |
tention of the Progressive voter than
any call to arms by leaders with
their own special and private axes
to grind. That statement shows how
necessary he is to Democratic sue
cess, and how responsible he is for
the effects of Democratic supremacy.
II is q declaration that every Pro-
yressive voter should study we'll,
md all that 1t means.

W. T. Bruyere, who lives on South

from a local firm not long ago, and
because he had heard people argue
as to the number of miles to be OBJ
tanned from a gallon Of gasoline In
different cars, thought he would
make a test just to satisfy his own
mind. He filled the tank on his
car and kept close tab on his speed
ome-er until the mileage began to
run up so high that he thought he
would examine the tank to see II
the Juice" was about exhausted,
but he found he had a gallon and
a half left. He had run 504 miles,
so he had gone this distance on just
21h gallons as the capacity OF the
tank is % gallons.
This makes an average Of 23h
miles per gallon.

Obituary-Mrs. Elizabeth Seeds

ObituaTy-Mrs. Elizabeth Seeds
The death of Mrs. Elizabeth Bird
enbaugh Seeds occurred at her late
home on East Sixth street at 4:S0
a. m. Wednesday, May 6, 1914.
Mrs. Seeds had been in declining
health for several years, due mostly
to the infirmity of age as she was
in her SSth year, but during the
last few weeks failed rapidly until
the end came and released her from
suffering.
She was ready and willing to de-
part and be at peace, being fully
prepared to enter into the rest which
remaineth for the people of God
and anxious for the reunion with
her loved ones gone before. She
had been a widow for nearly 20
years and lived alone in her quiet
home enjoying the peaceful sunset
of an active and useful life. She
was a woman Of strong character,
intelligent and devot-
ed Christian in her walk and con-
versation.
She was a splendid mother, tire
less in her devotion to her children,
kindly in all her relations with
friends and neighbors and leaves a
wide circle to mourn her departure
from this world, as all knew her as
Grandma" and knew her kindly
disposition and affectionate recogni-
lion of every kindness shown her.
She was conscious to the last,
Ealing those about her by name,
eaving her benediction for the alb
tent and making ready for her fun
,ral and burial. Thus she died as
he had lived, strong in the faith of
Ter Lord and Savious Jesus Christ
nd entered into her reward in
ternal glory.
The deceased was born in Peters q
urg, Pa. October 20, 1925, and
vas married to Alexander S. Seeds
december %, 1916. She was the
asst to survive of family of twelve 0
hildren. In October, 1868, she Il
loved with her family to Dixon, 8
H., and IL years later came with q
hem to this county, settling on G
arm near Enterprise, and later .
loving to this city where she has
nee resided. O
Mrs. Seeds was a member of Grace "
eformed church. In her life she "
lustrated true Christianity by not pl
lly processing but by ;her acts. u
er every act showed that she was M
sympathy with her fellow beings W
id interested in their welfare, both A.
