Remember the Date, Monday, Oct. 8 A. P. McMILLAN DEAD One of Mitchell County's Most Prominant MenPasses Away Early This Morning. It is our sad duty this evening to chronicle the departure of A.

P. MeMillan from this earth to the realms above, the deceased entering into his holy rest at 3 o'clock this morning. Mr. McMillan's death was not wholly unlooked for as he had been in poor health for the past three or four years, which was brought about by a severe fall he received when a load of hay overturned with him. At that time Mr McMillan sustained in juries from which he never fully recovered The shock was of such severlity that it finally resulted in the degeneration of his nervous system.

At intervals Mr. McMillan would get to feeling considerably improved until those about him would gain considerable encouragement as to the outcome. It was during one of these instances that in July last Mr. and Mrs MeMillan decided to spend a few days with their daughter, Mrs. Jason Valentine in Abilene.

They had been in Abilene but a short time when Mr McMillan took a relapse, and he was brought back in a helpless condition to his home.in Beloit. He never rallied from the last stroke and his demise has been only a question of time since that occurrence. Mr. McMillan, who was born in Fairnaven, Ohio, was 64 years old at the time of his death. He came to Kansas in 1884, locating on the farm just east of Beloit, which has been the continuous residence of the McMillan family since that date.

A wife and two daughters, Mesdames W. Allison and Jason Valentine, all of whom were at the bedside when the end came, are left to mourn the departure of a kind husband and an indulgent father, while the community at large mourns the loss of one of its best and always upright citizens. He served the county in the capacity of treasurer for four years, which represents two terms, with credit to himself and entire satisfaction to his constituents. The funeral services will be held at the home on Thursday afternoon, at 2 o'clock, and will be conducted by the Rev. J.

G. Hilton, of the Presbyterian church in this city, to which the friends of the family are invited. The entire community extends deepest sympathy to the bereaved family in this their dark hours of sorrow and a fiction. A Happy Home Wedding. The many friends of Mr.

and Mrs. J. F. Tolbert of the Blue Hill country of Mitchell county Kansas, will be pleased to know of their recent marriage on September 26, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr and Mrs. W.

S. Kimerer, near Victor, Kansas. The ceremony was performed at high noon by Elder B. F. McMillan of Beloit in the presence of the immediate relatives and other invited guests.

The attendants at the marriage altar were Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Kimerer, a brother of the bride, and his wife, who joined together the right hand of the groom and bride in the ceremony, after which the officiating minister pronounced them husband and wife to live together according to God's holy institution of matrimony.

The many good wishes and congratulations followed, given by all present. The bounteous feast that was next enjoyed with a relish gave evidence that it was first class in its several courses and fit for any king. The presents were numerous and very fitting to the occasion which ushered in a beginning of a new condition of life to these worthy young people. Their home will be on the farm owned by Mr. and Mrs.

A. G. Tolbert, the parents of the groom, where the family has lived for many years. They are well and favorably known in the southern part of Mitchell county, and after their removal to Beloit they will be greatly missed. The groom and his young bride will remain on the farm and conduct the business as heretofore, while the parents will retire and take up living on Hersey avenue in this city.

Their many friends will give them a warm welcome in our midst. In this union is brought together representatives of two good families, and the respect and love for each other will be all the stronger by reason of the good character each one bears. The wedding service was introduced by a beautiful prelude, and a wedding march suitable to the occasion, by Miss Goldie Kimerer, a sister of the for Fred Alslaben of Blue township, who will put up 80 head of cattle on Tuesday, October 16, for public competition in the sale ring. Among the number will be eighteen head of good milch cows, the balance being made up- of fine young steers, heifers and several nice calves of both sexes. Mr.

Alslaben'9 farm is situated five miles due west of the village of Victor, and it will no doubt be a center of attraction on the day of the sale. C. P. Smith will be the anetioneer. Thomas McGrath received rather a severe shaking up, Saturday night, in falling from the train.

The Union Paeific was pulling out from Beloit on its excursion trip to Minneapolis, while Mr. McGrath thought it was going up to the side track to remain over night and accordingly boarded it to save walking several blocks. He did not notice his mistake until the train had attained considerable speed. He jump ed from the platform of the car onto a pile of cinders, falling as he alighted His face was scratched somewhat but nothing more serious resulted than the scratching and a general shaking up The Presbyterians in this city ob served Rally Day in their Sunday school on Sunday.

EVERYBODY SATISFIED. Beloit Visitor Wins the Picture Given by the Boyles Furniture Co. Mrs. Lovell, a lady staying with Mrs. W.

H. White, won the picture on Saturday night given by the Boyles Furniture company to the individual holding the largest number of its advertisements cut from the Daily Call, and which have been pearing in that paper every evening throughout the course of the month of September. Mrs. Lovell had 1082 advertisements, her closest competitor being Miss Lola Vickers, who had managed to collect 937. The contest excited a good deal of interest and there was a good deal of excitement around the Boyles Furniture company's premises when the time had arrived for the count to be made.

We understand that there was some combining of interests toward the close and that the slips of paper cut from the Call, and which had printed on them the company's advertisement were made a saleable commodity. However Mr. Boyles imposed no conditions on the contest and cheerfully handed the picture, which was a valuable one, to the winner.
