IS A BUSY PLACE Machinery is Being Placed and the Future Outlook is Very Bright. The Coppock Automobile factory Is a busy place at present. A force of men are engaged In placing the machinery in position and getting ready to start the wheels by the first of the year. Nearly all the machinery has arrived that will be installed and within a short time this new industry,which promises much for the progress ■ of Decatur, will be running at fu’ll blast. The draftsman is already working on plans and designs and every day a great deal is being accomplished preparatory to the launching of the Coppock Motor Car Co., on the business horizon of Decatur. At the automobile show which was held at Chicago recently, the people who attended, were favorably impressed with the Coppock car and all who had the pleasure of seeing it, predict a great future for its promoters. This is gratifying news indeed and makes Decatur people more appreciative of our success in bringing the plant to our city. After the machinery is running smoothly one car will be completed and turned out each week and no doubt there will be two purchasers for every one that is built. o IT LOOKED SERIOUS But Fire Was Confined to the One House —Loss Only About S3OO. Fire was discovered Wednesday at the residence of Fred Blazer on Twelfth street and before the same could be gotten under control everything had practically burned, but the frame. The fire originated from a defective flue, and caught in the roof and was soon a mass of 'flames. The alarm was sounded about six o’clock and the company responded quickly and would have no doubt done excellent work had it not been for the fact that a portion of the hose was filled with ice and thus no water could be forced through the hose and the firemen were forced to do their fighting by the use of the bucket brigade until the hose was thawed out. The house was owned by Ed Johnson and was built only recently and that the fire originated from a defective flue is a surprise to all. The furniture and household effects of Mr. Blazer were all carried out safely and his loss will be slight. Mr. Johnson’s loss will reach the three hundred dollar mark, which is practically covered by insurance. Another house or two nearby were quite badly scorched and for a time it looked as though an entire residence block might be wiped out. A BETTER OFFER Says Cook Books Cause Divorces and He Prefers Other Gifts. The battle f»r business between the two squires, James H. Smith and James H. Stone, stil continues, and from all appearances before it ceaes the young couple that gets married before either of the aforesaid gentlemen will be more than pleased with the bargain they made. After Squ' r e Stone’s magnificent offer of yesterday Squire Smith this morning authorized us to make the announcement that he would now marry any couple free of charge, furnish them a certificate give a bouquet to the bride present them with a guide to health, wealth and happiness and make the happy couple an appropriate present in addition This is the best offer to date, and it 1« now up to Squire Stone to respond. Squire Smith stated that he would give a cook book, but owing to the fact that so many divorces resulted from . the young wife following the directions 1 of a cook book, he had cut that from his list and to equalize the same he had added a guide to health, wealth and happiness which he considers far mqre appropriate. Young folks, this I is the opportunity of a lifetime, and I while these two dignified officers are in the mood to start life on you should take advantage of the same. Remember, the offer only stands until the first of January. WORKED LIKE A CHARM. Mr. D. N. Walker, editor of that spicy journal, the Enterprise, Louisa. Va., says. “I ran a nail in my foot last week and at once applied Bucklen’s Arnica Salve. No inflammation followed; the salve simply healde the wound.” Heals seres, burns and skin diseases.

ON LAST SATURDAY Mr. Winans Now Located at Bellefontaine in Jewelry Business. John Winans, a former well known young man of this city, wno was emfor several year, but who for some time has held a responsible position at Bellefontaine Ohio, was married last Saturday at high noon to Miss Edith Dukes, of Findlay, Ohio. The event was a very brilliant one and the Findlay Daily Republican contained a column and a half article giving a complete story of the affair. Mrs. J. F. Winans, mother of the groom, from this city was in attendance. Concluding, the Republican said: “Mr. and Mrs. Winans left amidst a shower of rice, old shoes and good wishes, for Bellefontaine, where the groom had the newly furnished home prepared. The bride’s going away gown was a smart tailord dark red suit of broadcloth, with hat to match. The bride has grown from childhood to womanhood in the community in which she lived and is known and loved by all for her charming personality and many accomplishments and she will be greatly missed among her circle of friends, especially in church work. The groom is a well known and highdy respected young man of Bellefontaine, where he has a lucrative position with the Humphrey’s jewelry store. Many and beautiful were the wedding gifts of hand-painted china, cut glass, silver and linen.”

NO DECISION GIVEN Sympathy of Members Seemed to be With Prisoner and His Friends. Attorneys D. E. Smith and J. C. Moran arrived home last evening from Indianapolis, where they appeared before the Indiana Board of Pardon in behalf of Joseph Osborn. Besides them there were pmeeent Attorney Amsden, Frank Osborn and a number of Other friends of Joe from Marion and Elwood. They met the board at the state house, at nine o’clock yesterday morning, the session lasting until 11:30. The board treated the delegation courteously and went over every detail of Osborn's condition, his case, his wife and children, his financial condition and everything that would in any way bear on the case or enlighten them as to their duty. They gave no sign as to what they would recommend the governor to do or when they would report, though their sympathy seemed to be with the friends of the prisoner, who left with hopes of a pardon for Joe in the near future. There is nothing to assure this, however, as even should the board recommend a pardon, the governor may use his own discretion about granting it. SUMMONS WERE SERVED. Summons was served Tuesday morning on County Auditor Smith and County Treasurer Hayes, in the suit filed some time ago in the United States circuit court, at Indianapolis, against them and Mil ton Millett, Jas.

Officials of the Retail Liquor Dealers' association stated last night that a story in an afternoon paper to the effect that the association held a meeting yesterday afternoon to consider closing matters was incorrect. The story published had it that the offer to the temperance interests to close the saloons on Sunday mornings was to be renewed. President Otto Strodal of the liquor men’s association, said that no meeting of the sort was held yesterday. The regular meeting of the organization was held the day before, but only routine business was taken care of and the Sunday question wias not touched upon.—Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette.

Washington, December 17. —William B. Ridgely, controller of the currency, in his annual report made public, goes exhaustively into the financial condition of the country and discusses at length what he calls the “crisis of 1907. He says that since the date of the San Francisco disaster there has been no lack of warning indications and for at least two years it has been more and more evident that there must soon be a slackening of pace if the country were to avoid a general crisis in financial and commercial affairs. These conditions, he says, have been world-wide. He says the recent panic was not due to the lack of confidence of the people i« the banks, but more to a lack of confidence of the banks in themselves an din their reserves. The chief weakness of our present national banking system, he says, is the provision in regard to reserve deposits, which piles up reserve on reserve, in reserve cities and central reserve cities, without requiring a sufficient amount of actual cash reserve on hand. Mr. Ridgely favors the establishment by the government of a central bank of issue and reserve. He says that such a bank would not only solve the great problem of our banking system but it would also provide the machinery for conducting the treasury operations in their relations to the banks with the least disturbance.
