A PATENT j r H, E. Keller Invents New Incubator Patent Allowed in November—Will be Manufactured in Decatur-An Exhibition at His Office. After three years of hard work, daring which time many difficult obstacles have been overcome, Dr H E. Keller, of thia city, has been swarded a patent by A. I. Allen, commissioner of patents Washington, D, C.i 0“ an incubator, and the fruits of Dr. Kellei's labor have at last appeared. Dr, Keller, dur ing the past ten years, has been engaged in raising Chickens and

E ■ W - i J**"! /"i.. DR. KELLER’S 100 ESS INCUBATOR.

has, during that time, used tnary j patent incubators, Jone of which, however, gave him the desired re suits. Three years ago he conceived the idea that he could perfect and make an incubator that would meet al) the requirements of poultry men, and accordingly set at work on the same, sending plans to the patent office last July, and just secured word the patent had been granted. In an interview with the doctor by a representative of this paper, this morning, he described the workings of his machine and explained wherein it excelled all others. An incubaotr must be built of first-olass material in or der to be able to withstand the combined influences of heat and moisture inside the case while the atmosphere outside the case is constantly at variations. It is also very evident that machines can be constructed in such away as to be offered at a low price,but it is impossible for them to meet the natural requirements in the laws of nature in life giving and to vitalizing and animating the eggs and prove themselves either practical or successful. In tftis new machine Dr. Keller has met all these requirements and more too. He embodies all in the elements that are natural in nature, with the exception cf two, namely animal heat and animal magnetism whicrh no man has yet been able to fathom. The machine is one of perpetual ventilation for the reason that they dr.mp in the center cf the machine and barfy uli of iha into the machine. and let it pass off at the ®*»ntcr of the inou Dator, thus per knitting it to never get cool, it be ing as hot at one time as it is at another during the whole batch and the heat and warmed air is const>ntly drawn into the machine and is then forced into the egg chamber and down through the eggs and passes out through an apature in eaoh corner of the incubator, consequently there is not a bit of carbonic aoid gas that oar. fsmua in iat macm-e .

system as the air is constantly in motion. Economy is a ] so one of the redeeming features of this incubator, as there is less oil used and more heat produced than by any other, this feature alone making it stand head and shoudlers above Jany thiag else. Tho inou . bator is no experiment as it has been in operation here by poultry men for the past three years and has been giving perfect satisfaction. The incubators will be manufactured in this city by a company that Dr. Keller has contract ed with and will at once be placed on sale and a special guarantee is given wth each machine that it will live up to all the requirements made for it. Dr. Keller is fully convinced that the machine he had :s the right thing and will explain its workings tc those who desire to examine the same at his office, He stiii expects to continue in the medical ptofession, and will merely sell these incubators at present these who solicits, He how . over, later put a man on the road and expects to meet with a tig demand for the same.

Andrew ('arn'jgie has promised Frankfort 117,500 [for a public library. They wanted $25,000, but Mr. Carnegie compromised the affair by agreeing on the first named amount. A Columbia City onion dealer had a presentiment the other night that sometning was wrong at his plaoe of business and. going the? e, he found that some vandal had opened the doors of his storage house, exposing his odorous wares to the elements and also to tho olfactory nerves of passersby. Montpehar saloonkeepers are up against a remonstrance, which, if it succeeds, will affect them all. Although the remonstrance filed with the county commissioners is against the saloon business in the Third, ward of Montpelier, it is said that if it is held good by the commissioners it will not be hard to get remonstrances in the other wards of the city. ' A deal was consummated late yesterday afternoon, whereby Levi Bvrklev disposed of his property on i Winchester street to John Miller, i who recently moved to this city I from near Monroeville. The con- ' Sideration is not nitde known, but it is an assured ■' e amount is in four figures l . Mr. Barkley is to give possession of the same the first of March. The property is nicely located and will make a fine place for Mr. Miller to jive a retired life,

The Mtfßhodisi eharci'* was packed to its utmost Capacity last Sunday bv those desiring to hear Mrs Harris Toe crowd was the largest of the meetings held and many were converted at the meeting. The services will be oontlnud through part of this week, itnot all and much good is expected to be done during its process The earnest work of Kev. John C.

Decatur is now in tho midst of a big revival, which has been in progress at the M. E. church for the past four weeks. Rev. White is being assisted by Rev. Daniel and the Evangelists Harris and wife, of Illinois. The church is crowded nightly and standing room is at a premium. Some nights the meet- , ing has lasted until one o’clock at night. It is said the opera house ] and other places of amusement , have to close on account of no ' business and that the lid is on , tight there of Sundays (?). What < will the outcome be is tne question £ now being asked bv many. Let f the good work go on.—Geneva , Herald.

Wilson Brewer, a young man of seventeen, who resides at Pleasant Mills, met withan accident Wednesday afternoon, while hunting, that will no doubt forever deprive him of the use of his left arm. The young man left his home early in the day and started up river hunting, taking his dog with him. Everything went along smoothly until the young man had nearly reached Willshire when his dog'fell into the river. The dog was a fine swimmer, out at this point the bank was very steep and the animal could get no tooting. Young Brewer at once conceived the idea of lending the dog some assistance and did so by taking the barrel of the gun in his hand and using 1 the stock to assist in giving the 1 dog the necessary assistance During the scramble for a landing the dog evidently got his paw onto the trigger an in so doing discharge the shot gun, the heavy charge taking effect in the boy's left arm, making a frightful wound an tearing aboqt three inches of th? I>onc L the forearm away. The boy hurried to the office of Dr, Roller * Bobo, at VVillshirei an had tho injured member dressed, it being the opinion of the doctor that the arm would have to be amputated. The boy was taken to his home at Pleasant Mills last evening, where he seemed to be resting comfortable. A thorough examination of the in jury will be made today and it will hen be determined wnether amputation is necesssary or not. Furious Fighting. “For seven years,” writes Geo. W. 1 Hoffman, of Harper, Wash.,“l had a bitter battle, with chronic stomach and liver trouble, but at last I won, and cured my diseases, by tbe use of Electric Bitters.

i One of the greatest changes in time that has ever been effected on 1 the Clover Leaf railroad for years 1 is said to be scheduled to be made the first of the year. Although nothing in the way of definite order has as yet been issued, it is understood the change is a sure go. The 1 change in time will mean a great deal to residents of this city and patrons of the Clover Leaf in this v-oinity. The early morning trains that have been run for years will be changed to a much latter and more convenient hour, while the late trains, which arrive here, will come in a more reasonable hour in the evening. The Clover Leaf time table for this locality has always been a very unhandy one. Probably the most important change will be that of putting on a through limited, which will stop at only the most important stations on the line There will be one train limited each way a day, the westbound limited due here at 10:07 in the morning and the eastbound at 5:i9 in the , evening. Only the main stops will ( be used. Decatur, Ohio City, Bluff- ' ton, Marion and Kokomo being the stops in this locality. The limited will be proceeded by a local passenger for the local trade each way. The time table, as proposed | as follows; t EAST BOUND. ( No. 6. 6:27 a. m. instead of 5:47 p. m. j No. 2. 11:57 same as before . No- 4. 6:59 p. m. instead of 7:39 p. m. | (Limited.) WEST BOUND. { No. 1. 5:57 a. m. instead of 11:57 a. rn. No. 3. 10:00 a. nr instead of 5:47 a. m. ’ No. 5. 8:33 p. nr instead of 9:2? p. m. • It must be understood that this ’ change is not positive or authentic as given out from the main office through positive order?, but is given out in a rumor, which is ’ well founded and which as a fact has been talked of for some time.
