Pa. , died at Palls City , Neb.Nlay
1 ! 27 , 1905 , aged 53 years , 10 months I
; and 16 days.
Her parents , Mr. and lVII's. S.
E. Slocum , removed to Clayton . .
,
county , Iowa , in. March 1855 ,
{ where the family resided until
1864 , when they located in Min-
nesota for one year. In 1865
they came to Richardson county ,
this state , locating near Shubert.
Here Mrs. Hutchins grew to
young womanhood , and the fam-
' ily can truly be regarded as
I
among the old settlers who have
done so much to redeem the wild
land of the west and transform it
into a beautiful country.
In 1874 , the deceased was
united in marriage to .Mr. Warren
Ht1tr.h1n at St . Joseph . Mo
_ _ _ _ . . .u . - - - - . - ---r--- ' - . - - .
Their married life has been
passed in this county. In 1903 ,
j they moved to Falls City where
they have since resided.
Mrs. 'Hutchins leaves an aged I
father , S. E. Slocum , now past
9J years of age , two brothers ,
two sisters , her husband and four
children , Guy , Sarah , Ethel and
James Hutchins , and in addition
thereto many other relatives and
friends.
Mrs. Hutchins united with the
Baptist church at Prairie Union ,
neat Shubert , in 1877 , and remained -
mained a member until her death.
Some weeks ago , in conversation
she expressed her personal faith
in Jesus Christ and that her
hopes were built on him for sal-
vation.
Into this family the shadow of
j great affliction has come dark-
ening thc lives of husband and
children , but as they sit enshrouded -
shrouded ! in the gloom of grief ,
may they find some comfort in
the many words of sympathy

About thirty members oJ the
Southeastern Nebraska Fruit
Grower's association from Otoe ,
Johnson and Richardson counties
were in attendance at the meet-
ing held at O. P. Dovel's office
Friday afternoon. Time committee -
tee on freight rates reported that
they had secured a reduction of ,
33 per cent on car load lots from
the Burlington and Missouri \ Pa-
'cific west. This puts apple ,
peaches and pears in class B in-
stead of 5th class as heretofore
and means a saving of about 830
on a car. The committee on ex-
press for small fruit were not
able to report at this meeting ,
but arrangements were made to
send out two advance salesmen ,
one from Tecumseh and one from
Auburn , to make contracts for
future shipments in the territory
west and northwcst. The asso-
'
ciation expects to get a rate of I
25c per hundred on small fruit
where they now have to pay 50c.

The republican county conven-

urday afternoon to select twent\-
four delegates to the congres- I
sioni'll convention now in session
in this city. It was one of the
largest and most enthusiastic
conventions held in years , every
precinct but one being repre-
sented by men who had left their
work in the busiest season in
order that the wish of true repub-
licans might be observed.
One of the significant signs of
future events , is the purchase of
a residence property in the resi-
dence district by Frank Schaible.

Coining in China.
Chinese mints are literally
' "coining moneJ' " on a scheme re.
cently hit upon by which copper
coins are minted at a comparatively -
IJ small cost and made exchange.
able at the rate of no for a l\1ex- \
jean dollar. At Hangchau20,000-
000 of these copper coins are being -
lug made every month and shipped .
to Shanghai. The coins are om-
cially known as the ten-cash coins ,
corresponding to our American
one-cent piece. One hundred of
these coins weigh slightly over 24' '
ounces , and a pound and a half of "
copper costs only , from 10 to 20
cents. No great amount of power -
er is needed to convert the copper -
per into coin , and plenty of labor II
can be had at from four to eIght
dollars , gold , a month.
Rice That Is Thrown Away in Tons.
According to the vicar of a Bh' '
mingham church , about two ;
pounds of rice is thrown at the
brides and bridegrooms every
week at each of the 75 churches
in Birmingham and its suburbs ,
and thc 8,000 pounds of rice thus ,
thrown away and absolutely
wasted last year might ' have been
of very great use in feeding the .
recently famine-stricken people :
I
of India. There are over 20,000
places of worship in England ,
and if this estimate be true forI I
the other churches of thc country . . . .
try , then it follows that nearly
90 tons of rice are yearly thrown ! ,
away at weddings and wasted at
a cost of over ! 4,000.
