Page 4 The Danbury Reporter PEPPER BROS., EDITOR* AND PCBLIBHEK*. Subscription: 3 mo., 25c.; 6 mo., 50c; one year, SI.OO WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 11. 1911. ANNOUNCEMENT. Beginning with the first issue of November, this paper will adopt the policy of cash in advance for subscriptions. The paper will not be sent to any person without payment in advance. The price will remain the same, SI.OO per year. All the agents of the Re porter will be retained, but no agent will be allowed to send the paper to any person at less than SI.OO, and any agent violating this rule will be refused further connection with the paper. The cash-in-advance policy is the rule with all the leading news papers of the country, and is the only commonsense and business like method. There is only a small margin of profiit to the pub lishers in a year's subscription at SI.OO, and if a considerable por tion of this amount must be lost in the labor and expense of col lecting, the credit plan becomes very unprofitable. The Reporter management trusts that all its friends everywhere will appreciate its position in the matter, and send in their sub scription before its expiration, the date on the label showing them when it expires. The rule will be applied to all persons alike, without exception. MAJOR CHAS. M. STEDMAN. Congressman of the Fifth District Spends a Social Day at Danbury With His Friends. Major Chas. M. Stedman. Con gressman for this district, spent a day and night in town this week. The Major did not come on political or other business, but his visit was entirely social, and he came up just to rest a day and shake the hands of his friends here. Major Stedman expressed him self as feeling as well as ever in his life before. He appeared to ! ba in the pink of health, and en joying life at its best. The Major was extended some exceptional honors in congress by his colleagues, being elected a member of foreign affairs com nrttee, a position of very great importance and dignity, which is sought after by members who spend a great many years in C ingress, and which is rarely at tuned except by right of rare ability coupled with years of experience. This committee handles such matters as treaties with Russia and other foreign countries, and has charge of all international matters ot world wide importance. Another im portant committei appointment was tendered Major Stedman, to wit: a member of the commit ee on the election of President, Vice-PresiJent and the congress of the United States. Major Stedman informs the Reporter that the next President of the United States will be a Democrat beyond a doubt. He says this fact is not >.,.y eiainieu by the Democrats, but is admit ted by every one of the leading Republican cong e.-sm .u ana senators.

Messrs. Editors: While I am still in bed and can write only a few lines, I feel that I should give some kind of i expression of my gratitude to the many kind friends who ex pressed their sympathy and care for me by visiting us during my serious illness. After lying so long, unconscious and speechless at the portals of death, on return ing to consciousness it was very strengthening, encouraging and comforting to learn that the eyes of so many kind friends had been watching me. Truly, there is in man that which makes us feel one another's infirmities and in a sense shows our kinship to the Great Father, who created and cares for us all. Truly, we all belong to one common broth erhood and have a divine pedi gree; each one having every i other man for his brother and i God for his father, i Yes, I wish to thank all these i kind friends for their visits and the interest they manifested in , me, and our work.

Campbell, Oct. 9.—Lenna Pearl, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Davis Nelson, died at her home on Campbell Route 1 October 12, aged 3 years, 6 month 6 and 2 days. She had been sick only a few days of that dread disease, membranous croup. All that could be done was done for her but God needed her in that home prepared for the just, may the bereaved parents so live as to meet their little darling where there is no more sickness, nor death, and God shall wipe away all tears. She was buried at the home of her grand father, Mr. J. T. Martin, a number of sympathing friends and relatives being present. Mrs. Fannie Murphy died at her home on Campbell Route 1, September 24, aged about 26 years.V She had been sick for quite awhile but bore her suf ferings with great patience, j after saying she was ready and willing to die at any time. She professed faith in Christ and left the blessed assurance that she would be with Him when , the cares and toils of this life ] were over. A husband, three small children, father, mother, sister, and many friends and relatives are left to mourn the loss of this dear one. It was the writers pleasure to visit her several times during her last illness. Nothing pleased her so much as to talk of Jesus and what He had done for her. She was always so loving and seem ed so thankful, that she was loved by all friends and neigh bors. Mr. A. B. Carter is conducting a singing at Oak Grove. It has been such a busy time that the attendance, has not been regu lar but much improvement has been|made in the song service. Mr. Carter is an excellent teacher and does all in his pow er for the advancement of his class. The school will close the 4th Sunday in October. Several other classes will be present and some good singing is expected. We hear a good deal of com -1 plaint among the farmers about the public schools open ing so early. Very few people can spare their children in October, owing to the extremly i late season. We could patronize i the schools better in May than now. Trunks and Suit Cases.
