Chris Scheiblen Dead
Chris Scheiblen's Death
Very shocking and barely credible was the news circulated about the city late Monday evening concerning the death of Chris Scheiblen. It was indeed a very unwelcome shock, as none were prepared for such intelligence. But few knew he was sick enough to be confined to his bed. Many could not believe the news until they went to the Scheiblen's place of business and saw for themselves that the place was closed. Later crepe was displayed from the door, leaving no question as to the sad intelligence.
Death was due to pneumonia. The young man had been complaining about a week, but at no time was his condition such as to cause unnecessary worry. Sunday some of his friends called to see him and found him sitting in bed. He claimed to be feeling pretty well and wanted to get out of bed but his physician ordered otherwise. It was noticed by those visting him that he was very short of breath, indicating a tendency to pneumonia.
It is said that he was up Monday and had dressed himself and died a half hour after going back to his bed. It was then noticed that he breathed with great difficulty and that his condition was much worse. Physicians were hurriedly called, but by the time they responded his spirit had taken flight. He retained consciousness until the last and apparently did not suffer a great amount of pain. It seemed more as if he was going into a quiet sleep than facing the death angel when the summons came.
The deceased was as fine a young man as any in the city. Pleasant, quiet and industrious and gentlemanly to all were his characteristics. He was a young man of good habits and enjoyed such sports as hunting and fishing. It has been just about two weeks since he and Emil DeGas returned from a weeks' outing at Bass lake. While at the lake and directly after his return he stated he did not know when he felt better.
Mr. Scheiblen was born in this city and at the time of his death was thirty-six years old. He was born May 9, 1867, and attended the public school. A long time he was employed by the Thompson Ice company and at one time was a clerk in the Anglemyer grocery, now out of business. Recently he had been an employe at his father's place of business, where he made friends readily. He leaves a father and the following brother and sisters to mourn his untimely death: George Scheiblen and Mrs. Williams, of Chicago; Mrs. Simon Gross and Mrs. George Kindler of Logansport. The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence of his father, Jacob Scheiblen on Leopold street.

Three Children Left Motherless
Mrs. George Kindler Dies Suddenly In Logansport
Babe Fifteen Days Old
Former Huntington Lady - Funeral Will Be Held In Catholic Church In This City
When she as well as her friends thought that her health was improving as well as could be expected, Mrs. George Kindler of Logansport died this morning at 10:30 after a few minutes chill taken suddenly. About fifteen days ago a child was born to Mrs. Kindler and at one time last week her condition had been regarded as critical because of chills that came over her.
She was getting along nicely Saturday and was able to be about the house when Mrs. John Kindler of this city left her but this forenoon she was suddenly stricken with a chill which caused her death within a few minutes. There are three motherless children left by her death. All are small. The oldest is a tiny boy., Raymond, while the second, Ruth, is little more than a baby. The infant is only fifteen days old.
It is a terrible blow for the children to be left alone without a mother's care and the grief falls heavily upon on the mother of Mr. Kindler, who is still mourning the death of her husband.
Mr. and Mrs. Kindler were formerly residents of this city, but they have been living several years in Logansport, where Mr. Kindler conducts a saloon. They moved there a short time after their marriage about five years ago.
Mrs. Kindler was formerly Miss Amelia Scheiblen, daughter of Jacob Scheiblen of this city. Besides the father, husband and children there are two sisters and one brother surviving. They are Mrs. Simon Gross of Logansport and Mrs. Henry Williams of Ohio, and George Scheiblen of this city.
No details of the funeral have been received in this city but the body will likely be sent here Thursday and funeral services will then be announced. They will probably take place Friday morning.

Kindler Funeral
Most impressive were the ceremonies performed as the last sad rites for Mrs. George Kindler at the Ss. Peter and Paul's Catholic church Saturday. The fact that there are three motherless children and the touching sermon Father Miller made the service an unusually sad one.
Friends accompanied the body from Logansport and attended the services. Among those to come from Logansport were Mrs. Harris and Mrs. Bailey, two close friends of Mrs. Kindler. They returned to their respective homes Saturday evening.
Others here from a distance were Mr. and Mrs. Harry Williams fo Lodi, Ohio. They returned home Sunday morning. Mr. and Mrs. Simon Gross of Logansport remained until this morning.
Mr. Kindler returned to his home in Logansport this morning. He took his children with him and they will be care for in their own home by Mrs. Simon Gross, a sister of Mrs. Kindler and and an aunt of the children.
