CLEANING-UP DAY. Decatur will have a cleaning-up day and that within the next forty-eight hours if the orders of the health commission which made an inspection tour of the back doors and alleys of the various business houses of the city, this morning are obeyed. • The commission comprised Dr. J. S. Buyers of the state board of health. Dr. J. M. Miller of the county board of health and Dr. H. E. Keller of the city board of health. A visit to the alleys and an inspection of the backdoor premises found in many cases a deplorable state of affairs. Banana peels and slops of many kinds were sitting in uncovered cans or barrels, and other conditions were bad. The law requires slops to be kept in a galvanized, tlight-covered can, thus preventing the escape of the offensi'. e odor and the drawing of the germcarrying Hies. In many cases orders to clean up in twenty-four hours were given and in others, forty-eight hours. The report was given to the mayor, w r ho will issue an order for the rectifying of the matter. o j LOSE $125,000. (United Press Service) Indianapolis, Ind., June 14 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —The state board of charities today lost $125,000 when a local supreme court jury decided that Andrew Hogston, a wealthly land owner of Grant county, was of unsound mint- when he made his will in 1909. Attorneys for the defense stated that the case would be appealed to the higher court. TJie verdict of the jury gave a portion to James Hogston, a half brother. Thirty-six ballots we-e taken by the jury before arriving a a verdict. The jury was out forty-eight hours. The plaintiff’s attorney fees, it is said, will amount to $60,000. — o DEATH OF GRANDSON.
