OBITUARY

Michael Taugher, an old resident of
this county, died yesterday afternoon
at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
| Thomas Morris, in Newton. His death
was due to infirmities incident to old
age. He had been in poor health for a
long time and for several days previ-
Gus to his demise he had been uncon-
scious. Mr.. Taugher was one of Mani
tow0c county's first settlers. He was
born in County Mayo, Ireland, Feb. 6,
1927 and came to this country in 1847.
He lived for year in Buffalo, n. Y,
and came to Wisconsin in l8fS with his
young wife and settled on a farm in
over fifty years when he retired and he
and his wife went to Fond du Lac,
where they made their home with their
son, the late Father Taugher. After
the death of his wife in Fond du Lac
some nine years ago he returned to
Newton and made his home with his
daughter, Mrs Morris.
Mr.. Taugher was a citizen of the
highest type He was well known i'll
the southern part of the county and in
this city and was highly respected by
all with whom he was acquainted. He
was "A man of excellent habits, fine
moral character and sturdy constitu-
ton. He filled the various relations of
life and filled them well. AS husband
and father he set good example and
high standard. He lived a quiet home
life and although he never played a
prominent role in public or civic affairs
His influence and moral support was
more or less subtly felt at all times in
the community in which he resided.
Michael Taugher lived nobly and died
peacefully at the advanced age of 90
years. The stearn Reaper found him
as "shock of corn fully ripe for the
harvest"
Not for him be our tears. Rather
let us crown his grave with garlands.
Few of us will live as long or as well
and fewer yet will the Angel of Death
greet with such a loving touch.
lie is survived by seven children.
They are: John of Kaukauna, DIR. p. j.
Taugher of Wausau, Anthony of Chi
cago, Mrs. Thomas Morris of Newton,
Mrs. James Nieland and Mrs. Head of
Milwaukee, and Mrs. Bernard O'Laugh-
lin of South Randolph, Wis
The funeral services will be held at
st. Isidore's church in Meeme tomor-
row morning and will be conducted by
Father Kersten. Burial will be at
Fond du Lac where the remains of his
wife, and of his son, Father Taugher,
are inferred.

WHO STARTS THESE THINGS?

Nearly the whole city mourned for
Or. kemper last Sunday, but the doc
tor did not mourn, not having heard
that lac was dead. When ii came to his
ears he was inclined 30 doubt it, but
numerous friends who met him insisted
that II must be true as everybody said
so he began TO wayer, ON the theory
that where there is lots of smoke there
must be some fire Ono sinister signiG-
cance inlended).
It didn't get to the newspaper obtu-
ary stage or the doctor would have
read nicer things about himself than he
ever will he privileged to read. That's
The way people have. They vail until
one isn't here TO find out what d splcn-
did fellow he i before they tell It.
Well. It isn't true, DR.. kempcr is
still happily here and viii be, every.
body hopes, for long time. lie was
not even sick. not even d little bit.
The incident served only to give a

pull the old wheeze, credited 10 Marx

greatly exaggerated.

CITY TAX BOARD CONvENES.

The assessment of city property for
taxation purposed has increased over
last year from total of S1S,770,000 to
about S22,000,OOO. Assessor Goetzler
turned over his books to the city Board
of Review when it convened last Mon
day. The board will be in session un-
til all complaints have been heard, but
complaints must be made during the
first six days Kicks have been very
few of recent years, especially since the
state expert reassessed the entire city
and a systematic assessment has been
kept up. 1t is pretty hard for citizen
to go before the board and disprOvc
the figures and the boards conclusions
are final when there is a conflict of tes-
timony which there is sure to be.

Salvation Army Drive for Fund

Having successfully stood the acid
test of the war, The Salvation Army
faces future of service to humanity.
which is resplendent in possibilities.
Despite the fact that it has always
done much good throughout the United
States, the real value of such an or
ganization as The Salvation Army was
not generally recognized until its mem
bers entered the war with that charae-
teristic vigor and intensity, which
brought to it the respect and praise it
SO richly merits.
But to go on during the days of
peace doing the great good it did dur
ing the war, it is necessary for the
Army to have funds AS a consequence
a Home Service Fund campaign has
been planned
In this county, this campaign will
open on July 10th and last through
July 10th and during this time the peo-
pie of the county will be asked to con
tribute their share towards the states
100000 allotment
It is expected that the county will go
over the top in this campaign with tine
same spirit as that displayed in all for
mer patriotic and phlanthropic drives.
Little need be said about the war
work of the Salvation Army. 1t oceu-
pies place IN the annals of the great
struggle, which is surpassed by no or
ganization, How Salvation Army work
ers went over the top with the gallant
Ianks, how they brought cheer and
comfort to wounded and dying men,
they spared no pains in doing every
thing possible to aid the fighters is now
a matter of history.
The enthusiasm shown by the local
soldier is Characteristic of that felt by
all men who have served either in this
country or overseas
Not one comes home that is not
ready to praise the work done by the
members of the army in trench, field
and camp.
The drive Il being taken by the War
Relief association and those who are
to take an active part in il anticipate
nothing but success. The county quota
is $4,000 to $4,000.
The loyal blockmen who have never
once failed win call upon you and re-
ceiye your contributions. Give as gem
erously as the Doughnut Girls gave Of
their time and service on the battie-
field.

DRY AND QUIET FOURTH.

1t was surely quiet Fourth of July,
sans booze, sans firecrackers, sans eX-
element. The law had made both the
frewater and firecrackers matters of
historical interest only. 1t was like a
drowsy Sunday afternoon in rural
lane. There was ball game and of
course some tenseness evident over the
big championship fiasco that was on
tapis down at Toledo where Jack
Dempsey made a chopin block of Jess
Willard.
The elements seemed to want to keep
up the old traditions of the nations
birthday not only by some noise and
pyrotechnic display but also by ending
the intolerable dry condition and in the
afternoon it just fairly poured for a
quarter hour. There were no fireworks,
no fingers blown off, no blinded eyes,
no fires and no arrests for drunken
ness. Opinion was divided as to wheth-
er the new idea is an improvement.

SUICIDE.

Charles Monk, commonly called
doc" Monk, aged rs, hanged himself
in the granary on the farm of William
Buck on Route 3 Monday morning. He
is believed to have been brooding over
the death of his son killed in action in
France a few days before the signing
of the armistce last fall and the delay
in shipping the body home He has
been a familiar figure in the country
for many years as a peddler of his own
preparations which earned for him his
nickname.
He is survived by his wife, two
daughters and a son. No inquest was
held as the death was quite plainly sui
cidal.

N. H. DEMPSEY RETIRES.

Manitowoc has always had several
model saloons, such as Anton john
sons, Dan Tracy's and Charley Beers,
not to mention the well conducted
neighbOrhood "workingmen's clubs" "
but the National conducted by NJ. III.
Dempsey on a prominent corner for 20
years assumed the status of local in
stitution years ago. Notwithstanding
that Mr.. Dempsey long since ceased to
need the receipts of the cafe, and had
other large interests he never seemed
to come to a sense that the business
needed any apology, or that he had
grown above it, Nor need he have SO
felt. If they had all been like the
National the country would not be
facing permanent prohibition. mike"
was "A seaman on the sailing craft when
a youth and through all these years his
place has been the headquarters of
marine men. 1t has been the mecca on
election nights and every big occasion
for celebration. 1t has been the city's
best known first-class bar for a quar-
ter of century. And for over twenty
years Daniel Fitzgerald and John Bru-
der have been the efficient, courteous,
presiding geniuses on the other side of
the board. Mike has quit and John and
Dan have taken charge of the place as
a soft drink and lunch stand and re-
port that they are doing a big business.
The place looks the same but with the
affable proprietor gone from the place
and not a semblance of a kick in the
stuff dispensed the spirit will never be
the same.
