Wiles, aged 41 years, 3 months and 23 days. Funeral services were held Sunday at the M. E. church, Rev. Gan-naway delivering an impressive discourse.

The remains were interred in the McPiieison cemetery. Ellen R. Wiles, wnose maiden name was Morris, was born iu Hamilton county, Oino, Octooer 2, 1847. In Powsneik county, Iowa, September 20, lbti8, slie wts married to Titus F. Wiles.

One child, a uaugnicr, Edna, was tiio unit of that union. In 1872 she, came to McPherson county with her husoand, since which time she has resided in tne county. Mrs. Wiles was a woman ol tender, loving and sympaineuo disposition, wim whom iricnus were many and enemies unknown, iter nome and loved ones were Uer woriu, and in it she reiinieu us a lovum wife and mother, snowing irouuieor pain only irom tne eltccis of a uis-ease thai neiuier mouey or loving care cuuld eradicate. A uevmeu nusband and uaugluer's tireless attention and love sootueu ana eased tne sulferer's wearisome hours, and ner spirit passed lulo tue great uu-Kiiowii as peacluily aud calmly as Uie sleep oi a cuild who had worried itself at play.

IsT. FIUKLE. Dead Beats. Several persons who have been receiving the Times regularily for the past six or seven months, upon being asked to pay for it, have handed it back to the postmaster with the remark that they "didn't want that paper any more." No, these fellows were very well satisfied to take a paper, or in fact anything they could get for nothing, but the moment they are asked to pay for it, then all interest iu the matter dies out to them. The Times never has urged a man to pay any bill due it who had the manhood, to come aud say he couldn't pay it, or that he would meet it as soon as possible.

A great majority of our subscribers, and also those who did not order the paper, but who have been receiving it regularily, have called in and settled for it, or arranged for the payment. But a lew, of the dead-beat order, when asked to pay, become indignant, get excited, wave their arms around like a wiudmill, talk tough, and claim they are being imposed upon all for the sake of saving seventy-live cents. Of course we are not being imposed We had ought to furnish these fellows with a paper each week, give them personal notices and whatever advertising they may need just for fun, and then pay our bills with wind. Every community is cursed with dead-beats to a greater or less extent, and every newspaper in the country has had the same experience, as well as merchants. The proper thing to do with, these fellows is to publish their names, and a number of the best papers are making that a rule.

We have a little list we may print some day. And then somebody will be kicking. Clothing of all kinds way down at Abercrombie Russell's. A Mew Store. M.

N. Hall to-day opens his new store at McPhcrson. Mr. Hall was until recently one of the members of the firm of Hall, Bishop Whit-tinghill, but sold out his interest, and also his interest in the Pratt Centre stoic, and now will give his exclusive attention to the business he opens up to-day. He has had twenty-live years experience in handling dry goods, boots and shoes, clothing, gents furnishing goods, six and a half years of which was in wholesale houses, and his knowledge of qualities and prices is without a doubt as perhaps a little better, than any man's in the county.

The one thing that interests the, public gennerally is to get good, reliable goods at low prices, not poor, shoddy goods at low prices, because there is no money in a purchase of that kind. Mr. Hall is going to make prices and qualities count. Calj in' and see him at 114 Main street, MoPherson. If yon wear a bustle, see the "Darling" at Abercrombie Russell's only 25 cents.
