One of the saddest deaths and one which threw a pall of gloom over the entire neighborhood, was that of Mrs. Mabel Fisk, which occurred at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. RB. Jenkins, on Sunday morning at 4 o'clock. She took sick on Tuesday preceding and her physician, Dr. Christy, diagnosed the case as peri- tonitis. She grew rapidly worse and Dr. Wainright of Kansas City, was summoned, who, with the assist- ance of Dr. Christy, performed an operation, but it was toolateto save her life. When dissolution occurred her fond husband and devoted par- ents were at her side. Funeral services were conducted from the family residence in a very impressive manner by Rey. Cobb of the M. E. Church south, of which con- gregation she was a consistent and devoted member, on Monday after- noon at 2:30 o’clock. The floral dec- orations, tributes of fond relatives and friends, wereelaborate and beau- tiful. The casket wasa pure white, and was carried by six young men, her former companions and about the same age. Interment was made in the family lot in Oak Hill cemetery by the side of a little brother who had preceded her many years. Mabel Jenkins Fisk was born in the north part of this county and spent the greater part of her young life in Butler, her parents coming here when she was a baby. She was educated in our schools; was loved, admired and petted by all who knew her. She developed into a beautiful woman of a bright mind, kind and affectionate disposition. She was the very idol of her parents, the only child, with a beautiful home and everything at her disposal that affection could sug- gest and money buy. She was married to Charles L. Fisk about three years ago and nothing occurred to mar their unalloyed hap- piness. She was only 21 years of age, on the very threshold of life when the dread destroyer announced his com- ing. The hearts of the people of Butler bleed for those loving parents and devoted husband, and their sympa- thies go out to them in their great affliction. May the God of the uni- verse console them in this dark hour. Heinlein--Lyle. Wednesday eve, November 22. 7:30 at the residence of the bride’s parents Mr. and Mrs. A. E.

Adrian lost several business houses by fire Thursday night of last week, and had it not been forthe prompt and effective work of the citizens the damage would have been much more Severe. The fire originated in the Blocher furniture store, about 11 o’clock and was caused by the explosion of a lamp that was left burning in the building. Store house andstock was a total loss. The stock of goods was valued at $1,400 which was partially insured. The blacksmith and wagon shop of Aaron and John Lentz, together with machinery was also a total loss, the damage here is placed at $1,200 with some insurance. J... Neff's barn, valued at $500 was a total loss. Blocher Bros., lost their blacksmith shop and contents. They estimate their loss at $1,200, no insurance. The building occupied by A. B. Holloway was also considerably damaged, but saved. The Journal printing office, on the second floor of this building was considerably dis figured, but the boys got the paper out on time. The Butler gardeners might find it profitable to try raising peanuts. Peanuts sell at 5 cents per pound and on light sandy soil 50 bushels to the acre can be raised. Mr. Gilmore, of Nevada, who has had experience in raising peanuts gives this informa- tion in regard to planting and culti- vating the crop. The groundshould be prepared similar to ground for wheat. Itis better to plow in the falland then replow in the spring. They should be planted about the same time of planting eafly potatoes Cultivate with shovel plow like corn and when in full bloom the vines should be covered to within about two inches of the top—or in other words cover all the bloom with about six inches of loose dirt. The vines should be first flattened out over the ground before covering them. Pea- nuts are planted two ina hill—shelled Company Will Pay Up.
