Let an oily stranger come along with any kind of a proposition and1 he lads a sure harvest. It is strange that men can be made to believe that the well-dressed stranger with prom ises galore is simply devoting his time to traveliag from place to place for the purpose of bestowing wealth upon men he has never seen, Yet that is just what the average promoter professes to be ' doiag. If you want to play sucker swallow his bait and repent at your leisure.

Mrs. Johanna Lynch, widow of the late Thomas Lyaeh, passed quietly away on tost Friday afternoon May H, 1SCT. The deceased had been mnder the oa-v otaat care of a physician, and tha ap proaching end of her earthly career was not anticipated. Death therefore rather unexpectedly, only two ten, Maggie and Nellie, being at bedside when the final summssje'eamo. Mrs. Lynch 'was one of the early settlers in this community, braving all the hardships and discomforta of early poineerlife.' Sim was bonia Kerry co unty, Ireland, in 183ft, At the ago of 16 years she came to the United 8Utes witii relatives, settling near Worosstor.

Her husband preceded her into eternity 5 years ago last October, and aha ia suriv- ed by three soas, James, Thomas and Daniel, and four daughters, Maggie, Nellie, Mary' and Mm James Morris of New York City. Funeral services were held from St. Joseph's cburch Tuesday morning, and alargeconcouns of friends accompanied the remaiaa to thefnal resting place.. Mrs. Lynch was a most devoted mother to her children. Under her guidance and watchful influeaee the Lynch children developed into use ful, kind and thoroughly christian t citizens. In her home and social life Mrs. Lynch was of a retiring nature. She seldom if ever attended social gath erings. But be it recorded as a ' of sincere gratitude to her sacred ory by her many friends that Mrs. Lynch waa ever ready. and williagto visit thesick and afflicted in thie com munity. Whenever death summoned a loved one from the midst of a family she was always among the first to con sole the bereaved relatives by.her kindly presence and expressions of true chris tian condolence. When ever in this community a humam heart waa strioken with the touch of sorrow Mrs. Lyach sought to ease the anguish and pain of the affieted. She will indeed be most kindly remembered by the many in thie neighborhood whoaa time of death and distress, have felt the balm of. bar -kind, consoling influence. Mrs. Lynch was a christian lady in the treat aad noblest sense of that wonL Dedicated to her fond memory are her god-like deeda of true charity and benevolence. That her noble example may be emulated by many is our wish and prayer. " HUMPHREY From tfaa Democrat.

The house is two, stories high, with a large attic, aad a basement under the eatire place. It Is threatened with sale to a buyer who may turn It Into a storage house. The owner would prefer to have It bought by the state or a society for aa historical mu seum. Tha house Is CO by 75 aad the lot by 200 by 125. - There are 20 rooms. Its construction was begun In 1700, and it was completed In 1804 and .1805. The ceilings are, 13 feet high, aad the rooms are spacious. The walla are of brick, and Inside and out are 18 Inches thick. The glass in the windows came from England, and it took two years to have them deliv ered. The wood was sawed with the old-fashioned whlpsaw, and all . the nails were handv forged on the grounds. The woodwork Is hard pan eled, finished with beading and is of solid, clear black walnut It Is said that the walnut in the house to-day is worth a small fortune.

One fea ture Is the great reception hall with Its stairway that makes a three-quarter .turn in Its-ascent and has no vis ible means of support The woodwork In the hall waa all finished by hand. There are secret places in the house that are supposed to have been used for the storage of valuables. The woodwork Is perfectly fitted and put together with wooden pins so that aft er 100 years it takes close scrutiny to know where the joints are located. Directly under tha front door is the old powder magazine. The floors all throughthe basement are "solid and dry and In one of the rear rooms swinging In the old fireplace is tbe old crane where the venison, buffalo aad bear meat waa, cookqd. Many distinguished guests' partook of the hospitality of William' Henry Har rison. - Tbe-akilied' labor was paid $25,000 for its work, and the slaves did all the heavy carrying and lifting. 'Indiana had a great many relics among the families of the state, and many of these people would be glad to contribute to the historical collec tion if there were a state historical museum such as this old mansion might be made. Hundreds of people visit the house now and travel many miles over this and,, adjoining states to do it The many visitors have become a burden to the owners, who never know when they are to have .requests from, peo ple to see the house. If there was more In the bouse to see the old man sion would become a Mecca for the patriotic sons and daughters of In diana. King Came to Rescue. At the time of the marriage of the crown. prince of Sweden, Miss Emma Thursby, the American singer, and Mme. Christine Nillson were appear ing on alternate nights at the Royal theater at Stockholm.
