The blossoms have a secondary bud extending from the center of the first, which revelops into a second set of perfect roses when the first set have withered and fallen. The phenomenon is not of occasional occurrence, as each blossom is uniform. How many will there be this year? In 1914, there were 1.606 persons killed and 1,466 injured in the celebration of Independence day. !n twelve years there have been 42,786 deaths and 40,954 persons injured as the result of shooting of firecrackers and fireworks. The highest number killed in any one year was in 1908 when 5,623 met death and the lowest number was in 1912, when only 988 died. Germany is preparing busily for another winter of war. Winter clothing for the German army is being made in i great quantities and stores of other kinds which would not be needed if the war were to end before cold weather are being accumulated as fast as possible. This is conclusive evidence that th« German government believes the war will run far into 1916. It is sure proof that the kaiser and his advisers have little or so expectation of peace within nine months or a year. The value of a human arm has been fixed at $9,000 by Judge Henry H. Vinton of the Tippecanoe superior court. After a week’s consideration the court has awarded Victor H. McKee that amount in his suit against A. E. Kemmer, a local contractor. McKee was employed as a carpenter during the construction of the Lafayette Loan and Trust company building. His right arm was caught between an elevator car and the shaft and torn off. He sued for $15,000, the suit being tried before the court without a jury.

It was an expensive sky rocket that was a part of the Labor day celebration in Bloomington, in 1906. That city must pay approximately $9,000 to Miss Josephine Moore, according to a decision of the supreme court because of injuries inflicted by a sky rocket on the night of the celebration. Miss Moore, who was then sixteen years of age. was disfigured for life by the accident. The county court refused her damages. The case was appealed and the supreme court has held the city responsible, after nine years of litigation, and rendered her judgment for SB,OOO plus interest and costs. There has been some debate among local hunters relative to the time the season opens for hunting squirrel, some contending that the season opened July Ist. and others contending that the last legislature changed this law to August Ist. There was a bill before the house, the same being introduced by Fred Feick, of Garrett, asking that the date be changed from July Ist to August Ist. but the bill only reached a second * hearing and then died, and as a result the law was not changed tn the least. The season, according to the present law, opens on July Ist and closes on November Ist. The local chiropractors, and all of them in Indiana, for that matter, are in a high state of glee from the fact, that a court decision at Evansville. Wednesday, is in their favor. This action was brought by the board of medical registration against 8. W. Derrait. a chiropractor there, and a jury after hearing the evidence soon acquitted Dermit. The charges were practicing medicine without a license, under the state statutes, bike cases have been brought against many of the chiropractors of the state, and it is expected the present case at Evansville will be promptly appealed to the state supreme court and promptly decided. The chiropractors state for sor/» time they have been wanting a test rise made so that they can determine their standing Recording to the Indiana laws.
