ces were held at the Townsend
home Sunday afternoon and bur-
ial made in Abbottsville ceme-
tery, beside her husband, who
preceded her in death about twen-
tyfive years.
Garfield Martin, under indict-
ment for obtaining money under
false pretense, and who plead
guilty and threw himself on the
mercy of the court, was given a
sentence of one to three years in
the penitentiary. AS Martin has
promised to reform and having
wife and three children to sup
port, Judge Bowman suspended
sentence on the usual conditions
and the prisoner was allowed to
return to his home in Piqua. His
wife was indicted along with him,
but the case against her was not
pressed. Martin said he intend
ed to live a different life from
now on and would pay back the
money he received, amounting to
$131. ..-.-
Last Friday morning was the
coldest of the winter, up to that
time, when thermometers regis
tered 6 and 8-degrees below zero,
the government instrument at
the Katzenberger residence on
West Main street indicating A be-
low. However, the worst cold
hit us Monday morning, follow
ing a blustery, snowy and biz
zardy day Sunday, when the
wind blew all day and night, at
times terrifcally. Monday morn
ing thermometers about town
registered from 8 to IA below ze-
no, the government thermometer
registering 10 below. AS a con-
sequence Of these cold snaps the
gas pressure has been very low,
and in some parts Of town there
was none at all, while in others
there was only about enough to
light. Many Of our citizens were
greatly inconvenienced on this
account and a number put up
wood and coal stoves. Dealers
in fuel, especially coal, were kept
busy supplying consumers from
Friday until Tuesday. L. seems
this cold wave enveloped the en-
tire country, the southern states
being hit with temperatures o?
20 and 30 above zero.
Many are inclined to think the
recent cold spells were the
severest we have ever experienc-
ed, but weather statistics contra
dict this. During the month of
January, 1886, there were four
cold days, with the thermometer
registering 3, Ia, IL and IL de-
grees below zero, and in 1898
there were eleven consecutive
days, on only two of which the
minimum temperature was above
zero, on the other nine days it
was below zero, with Is degrees
below being twice recorded. In
1903 we had four days in Janu-
ary similar to the recent cold
weather, while during the last of

A grocer man was telling a customer about some woman who had tainted on the street. He rushed to the rescue, of course, and lifted her head from the
 "1t's wonder you hadn't killed her Don't you know that her head should have been lower than her feet?"
 The grocer accepted the information with the smile of one who likes cold douches, and went on about how man stopped his automobile to take her to hospital, and how they tried to revive her with ammonia.
 "Worst thing you could have done Don't you know that when the patient Is unconscious you should never" and 90 on, and so on.

HARD ROADS ARE NECESSARY
Big Essential in Using Trucks for Transportation of Farm Products
 to City Markets.

The farm truck is destined to play an important part in the marketing of farm produce, but in the meantime much attention must be paid to the roadways over which they are to be operated, in the opinion of w. H. San ders, instructor in farm motors in the Kansas State Agricultural college.
 ''To use truck to advantage hard roads are necessary" said MT. San ders. Trucks have been used with marked success for a number of years on paved streets. Although they were used to transport food and water to the United States troops during the recent occupation of Mexico, the war department soon decided that hard roads were a requirement. in operating trucks to the best advantage.
 'Use of a truck on the farm saves time and reduces the number of men required to do the farm hauling. When a truck is operated on the farm great CT care will be used in laying out the fields so as to give more efficient use of power expended. Time will be saved, because less time will be spent on the road between town and the farm. The number of farm hands will also be reduced"

Morse Code Failed.

A Chinese entered the office of the Western Union Telegraph company at Evansville few days ago and left a telegram with Ivan Bennett, the signal clerk. The yellow man said the tele- gram was to be sent to Chicago. Ben nett hung the telegram on the hook for the operators and John Black, an operator, got 1t. The telegram was written in Chinese and Black and the other operators were unable to deci- pher it. They got an interpreter be- fore the message could be sent.-In- dianapolis News.

WaiIinq About the Loan.

Perhaps the S2OOO,OOO,OOO loan could have been more effectively handled. The diurnal walters at Washington and in Park row are pretty sure to point out that, in spite of the money in hand, it is all wrong. But the public will be content with the simple fact that a loan which had to be raised has been raised.
 With much scrambling and panting and perspiring our awkward and f1abby democracy is managing to get things done. Countrywide apathy was to make the loan a failure; it has not failed. Countrywide conspiracy was to frustrate the draft registration; the expected names have been forthcom- ing. We were to mark time in our training camps while France was cry ing out for men; General Pershing is in France. The submarine was to de feat us while our navy lay idle; our destroyers are in British waters. Con- pulsion would have to be brought in to fill up the regular army; in little more than a month the regular army will be filled up by voluntary enlist ment.
 The business of wailing Is getting a little more difficult every day, but there is no reason to suppose that 1t will be forced into involuntary bank ruptcy. Every cloud has it's dark side. There will always be something to nag about-the lack of camp comforts at Plattsburg or the criminal deficiency in Pullman accommodations for troop transport, or some such excess of the red tape practitioners at Washington. But then, without wailing, where would democracy be?-New York Eve ming Post.

Make War With All Our streno+t

Americans love peace, but they would be unworthy their heritage if they did not love liberty more
 Only by showing their willingness and readiness to fight-and fight with all their strength-can a people who love liberty hope to preserve liberty when its existence is threatened.
 The crisis forced upon this nation by the German government places lfb- erty at stake in this land just as Ger many's assaults upon other nations have threatened the overthrow of lib- erty in Europe.
 In this crisis American duty is plain.
 Neither the sinister scheming of pacif1sts and pro-Germans nor the cowardly cry for a defensive war; neither the anti-Britishism in high places which comes perilously near to being a pro-Germanism, nor the pa rochialism that hides itself behind the plaint against "entangling alliances" can be permitted to palsy the military arms of the United States.
