FuNERAL LARGELY ATTENDED

Funeral services for the late D. F.
Grove were held at the Congre-
gational church Sunday afternoon,
the funeral address being given by
the Rev. w. j.. Suckow, pastor Of the
church. The services were under
the auspices of the Masonic lodge.
The Masonic burial service was read
at the grave in Oakland cemetery.
The large auditorium Of the church
was altogether inadequate to accom-
modate the host Of friends who came
to pay last tribute to. the memory
of one Of Manchester's most popu-
lar business men who was so sudden
ly called from among his associates.
The large number Of friends and
lodge members who attended the
services attested in q fitting man
nerS to the high regard in which
Mr.. Grove was held.
Among those from away to attend
the funeral were Mr.. and Mrs. John
Rector jr, Of Oneida; A. w. Guern-
sey of Chicago, and Mr.. and Mrs.
A. Kerr of Waterloo. Messrs.
Guernsey and Kerr have been sales
men for Carson, Pirie, Scott and
Company of Chicago for some twen-
ty years, and during these many
years the two gentlemen have form
ed a very close friendship with Mr..
Grove. These men, in common with
Manchester people generally, will
miss Mr.. Grove when they make
their visits to this city.

MR.. INMAN,s WORK APPRECIATED

Mr.. INMAN's WORK APPRECIATED
4 Manchester friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
J. r. Inman are pleased to learn OF
the success they are having In their
work in the schools at Red Oak, To-
wa. The School Board Of Red Oak
reelected Mr.. Inman for the coming
year at ain increase Of 5000 in sal
ary. During the past year the at
tendance in the high school In
creased by sixty odd students, and
additional school rooms had to be
supplied in various buildings in the
city to accommodate the students.
On Saturday Of this week the city of
Red Oak will vote on a bond issue
which involves the neat little sum OF
800, 900, to be used in the erection
Of a modern high school building
and enlarge the grade buildings.
Red Oak is considered one OF the
finest cities in the western part of
the state, and evidently the Com
mercial Club of that city realizes
that the best way to really boost
their city is to have school buildings
which are capable Of accommodating
all Of the pupils who seek an edu-
cation. 1t appears that the CONNER
cial Club Of Red Oak has taken as
much or more interest in the ques-
tion Of bonding the district for this
vast sum as has the School Board.
Manchester people will also be
;gratified to learn that Mrs. Inman
has sufficiently regained her
strength, after the severe operation
to which she submitted during the
past winter, so as to be able to as
sist her husband with his work and
take her place in the social and
church activities of Red Oak. ~

FEDERAL INSPECTOR TO
HEAR ROUTE COMPLAINTS

Lincoln. Neb., Oct. 6.-Inspector
Randall, Of the postoffice department.
is in Lincoln today. and he is the cen
ter Of a real live row. The department
has been consolidating routes in and
about Lincoln, with the result that o
number Of farmers who have had their
mail deliveries shortened and have
been made to suffer other incon-
veniences have enlisted the support OF
Congressman Reavis. The inspector
objected to having public hearing, en-
pressing desire to meet and talk in
dividuaily with the protesting ruralitea
but the congressman wants a general
public hearing.
Department officials say that the
changes and consultations have been
made in the interest of economy. In
former years the practice was for a
congressman to make himself solid
with the farmers by getting mail routes
run close to his place. so that he might
have good service and not have to walk
far. The result has been that more
routes than the department thinks nee
9essary, have been created, and 1t is to
cut down expenses that the changes
have been authorized.

OLD AUTO SOLD TO CITY
WAS FlREMAN'S PROPERTY

Lincoln. Neb., Oct. 6.-Judge England
again unlimbered his batteries upon
Mayor Bryan at the city hall Tuesday
morning, when the investigation into
the purchase of an automobile wagon
was resumed. Commissioner Wright,
who purchased the machine. admits
that it was done through a third party.
as the city fireman who owned the ma
chine did not wish to be known as SELL
ting it to the city. 1t Is now charged
that the purchase was recommended
by the chief at price that was twice
or three times what it is worth, and
that other members OF the department
shared in the profits Of the transac-
ton.
Judge England, who made the or
iginal charges. is trying to mold Mayor
Bryan responsible on the theory that
he should have made inquiries as to
the reasonableness OF the price paid
before signing the warrant.
