. Caught like a rat in a trap, beneath i his threshing engine, which turned turtle when the bridge over which it was passing gave, way, ana tormented ' by the horrible fear that the steam pipes would give way and send their scalding vapors to envelop his wn i ing body, Joe Tonner. a prommen thresher of Jefferson township, spent several terrible minutes before he hi ■ ally extricated himself, bad y s< though uninjured save for a bruises and minor scratches. The a cident happened in French township. I Children Cry for fletchews CASTORIA

just, as Mr. Tonner and hla assistants, . with the threehlng outfit, wore cross■ng a private bridge which lead from ’the highway In French township to the old Chris Hocker farm, where they were due to thresh next. The bridge •panned a ditch ten feet deep and just as the engine steamed ont othe bridge, the structure gave way. In the .fall the tngine turned turtle and Mr. Tonner, who was acting as engineer, standing on the platform at the rear between the water reservoir and the coal blns, was caught under the engine. The btn and the reservoir, however, on each side of the platform, formed a little box, Into which the main part of his body fitted, so the heavy part of the machinery did not rest on him, but one of his feet was ( caught in such away that he was pin- : ned fast, and it was sometime before I he worked himself free and crawled ! forth with only a few bruises and scratches. As he lay pinned under the 1 engine his great fear was that the < steam pipes woud break and let the | scalding contents forth before he could escape, in case of which his body would have been parboiled in a I short time, and serious if not fatal 1 injuries ensue. In fact, it is considered a great miracle that he escaped as he did. An assistant was manning the separator at the rear of the procession, and when the engine fell he was horror-stricken, expecting to find the mangled body of his companion beneath it. The damage to the engine, it is thought, will reach a hundred lollars, and Messrs. Otto Reppert and Charles Walters, who conduct the foundry here, went to the scene of the acciI dent today to set the engine "on its feet," and make the necessary repairs. An outfit, with which buildings are moved, was taken along to get the engine out of the ditch. o— — . ■ 1. FUNERAL TODAY. Delphos Loses Esteemed Citizen in Death of John McCabe. John McCabe, widely known and highly esteemed resident of Washing- " ton township, who was kicked in the abdomen several days ago by a sick cilt he was doctoring, died early this morning. The acident was most unfortunate inasmuch as Mr. McCabe had not thoroughly recovered from an ‘ operation performed last November for the relief of an ailment of the stomach and his body was still tender as a result. A second operation ( was performed Friday by Dr. McfOscar of Fort Wayne, assisted by Dr. Brundage of Delphos and Dr. D. D. jJ’lark of Decatur, in the hope of savI ing his life. It was found that the in- ! I testines had been broken in two places L? by the blow from the animal’s hoofs. I, Mr. McCabe was unmarried and resid1 1 ed with his sister, Miss Phoebe McI : Cabe. He Is also survived by two I 1 .brothers and a sister, Mrs. John Ste- | I vens, wife of the county infirmary suI j perintendent, and Newton and Joseph It.McCabe, who reside in the west. Defignite funeral arrangements have not I been formed but the services will 1 probably be held at the home MofiI day.—Van Wert Bulletin i Mrs. B. A. Dorwin, who left a short i while ago for Port Townsend, Wash- | ington. to spend a year with her son, | the Rev Jay Dorwin, writes interestI ingly of her journey. Mrs. Dorwin is eighty-two years of age, yet stood the trip well, and the letter is written in a fine hand, of excellent penmanship, and with never a mistake to mar its legible, well-wrttten, and best of all, | its well spelled pages. She went to Port Townsend with her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Jay Dorwin, who visited here with her mother, Mrs. H. L. Coverdale, and other relatives. Mrs. Dorwin says in a letter to her daughter-in-law, Mrs. C. U. Dorwin: Port Townsend, July 16. Dear Home Folks: Here we are, leaving Decatur at noon on Thursday. Right pleasant until we get to Huntington, then it gets very warm and dusty. Got to | Hammond, then we got a cold wave off the lakes; had to put on our wraps, (lot to Chicago about 5 in the evening. Took a car very soon; went to bed, I and woke up in the morning. Got out at St Paul; staid there about nine I hours. Took the car and in a couple of hours went to bed, and about 9 in the morning we arrived in Winnipeg. Stayed there until about 1:15 in the morning, a beautiful place and Nina and 1 had a good time. Went out about 2 miles in the country to a beautiful park. Then we walked around town; had ice cream, then went to the hotel. Traveled all day Sunday and that night over a beautiful coun- ( try. Then on Monday about 10 o’clock , we came into the mountains. We went ( into the observation car about 10 in , the morning and remained there un- ( til almost evening. And such beauti-1 tu l sight, no one ever saw. We were , all day and one night and a part of ( the next day passing through them,. Looked very dangerous some times.) Went through at least one dozen tunnels and miles of snow sheds. Just | before we came into the states he, conductor said we would have to stop

over twertty-four houis at a little station, so we sent a telegram of the fact | so that he would not try to meet’ us at , Seattle. Well, when we got to that station we found that we could go right on The train there waited on our train. Got to Seattle about 2:30; then we telephoned Jay we were there and 1 would bo home about 11 o'clock that evening. Jay was at the dock to meet, us, and one of his good friends was there with his auto to carry us home. | Jay had the children to bed early so as to get some sleep. Then when he started to the dock he waked them up. They dressed themselves and were out on the porch waiting for us when we came. i Well, I must say they have a beau- | tiful country here, and the best peo . pie here that I ever saw. There were 1 so many in to see us the next day after we got here. One lady brought I in a lange cake, and another a nut | cake, and the flowers that cAme in! I Went to a missionary lecture the next day. The Ladies’ Aid socnety had a picnic out at one of the forts, and one lof Jay's friends hired an auto and , took us out. Went out about noon and came back in the evening—a beautiful 1 ride. There is something going on all the | time. Last evening we took our lunch and went out to the beach, and to the park, the most beautiful that I ever saw. We did not take any wraps along and it got so cool we had to come home early. We wore our wraps almost all the way from Chicago here. It is pretty warm here today, and has been for a ; few days; that is for this place, but I ' i nothig like it is in Indiana. ' Jay has a splendid garden—the nicest lettuce I ever saw. One head ! makes us a big meal, and berries, we have them on the table every meal — strawberries and raspberries, peas and onions. Made strawberry jam, and | have given so many away. i Well, it is about supper time. I am , feeling real well.
