luuianapolis, Ind. Jan. .7—More than one million Red Crow seals were sold in Indiana In 1911. making a record for the state. Terre Haute wins the $5,999 prise given by the McCrumHowell company. The other six prises go to Kirkpatrick, Danville. Pierceton. Greensburg. Mt. Carmel and Goodland. This announcement wag made today by Merle SMener and Guernsey Van Riper, the Indiana sales managers who directed the sale throughout the state It is based upon reports from all but a few of the 426 cities and towns, among them Indianapolis and Anderson When all reports are received the sales managers expect the record to reach 1,250,009. a 100 per cent increase over the sale of ISIO. According to the conditions of the contest the city selling 10.000 seals and making the highest per capita sale would be awarded the prize. Terre Haute headed the list with a gross sale of 192,000 Red Cross seals and a per capita record of 3.37 seals sold for each inhabitant. Greensburg ranked next in the sale of more than $199 worth of seals, with 133 seals sold for each inhabitant. The competition between these two cities was very keen throughout the entire campaign. The largest per capita sale of Red Cross seals was made by Kirkpatrick, a smal Itown of 87 inhabitants, near Crawfordsville. In that town 11.10 seals per inhabitant were sold. Danville ranked second with a sale of 4.78. and Pierceton third, with 4.52 to its credit. The percentage sale in Mt. Carmel was 3.26, and in Goodland, 2 92. With the exception of Terre Haute and Goodland, hand or electric suction cleaners will be awarded Goodland will get a handsome silk Hag. Last year 680.000 sea's were sold in this state. From reports received to date there has already been an increase of nearly 400,000 over the sale in 1910. In 1909, 780,000 of the seals were sold in Indiana. Decatur made a noble showing, having sold 6,429 seals. POLICE COURT NEWS.

Greathouse, state superintendent of public instruction, have sent out letters, urging township trustees and county superintendents to send in reports from school corporations, which desire to take advantage of the deficiency fund statutes, the time limits for such reports being fixed at February 6, 1912. Under the present statute 5.2 per cent of the state school tax is set aside for the deficiency fund, out of which school corporations, which cannot maintain their schools for six or seven months a year from the funds at their disposal, may draw enoug hto tide them over. Thinking that he had waited as long as it usually takes the milk carrier to leave the daily supply of milk at the housewife's door, the horse belonging to Davis Dailey, the well known dairyman, which had been left Friday evening. in front of the Hains' meat market. while the driver went inside on an errand, took it into Us head to pursue its way, and thereby caused £ long and weary search on the part of the driver and officers, who knew not whether the horse had been stolen or *. ■*> mi ——s .1 . a ■■■ -"W ——■ ■

> simply strayed’ away Th* horse is i the one usually driven with the milk ( wagon, but in the evening had been. i changed to a closed rig to drive to this city, about 6 o'clock. Mr. Dailey j i had driven up to the Hains’ meat mar-1 ket, and there got out. leaving thej horse standing In front of the shop. In about threee minutes he came out and the horse was gone. A long search was unsuccessful in locating the horse, and finally the night officers were notified, being Mill on the hunt, at 8:30 o'clock. Finally Samuel Frank, located the horse at the Schlickman I feed yard, where It was gotten by the owner this morning. The boy in i charge of the Schlickman yard stated . that Friday evening between 6 and 7 I o'clock the horse and closed carriage drove into the yard as nicely as one ■ could imagine. The carriage was closed and the boy, thinking the driver ; therein, asked whether he should un-: hitch and put the horse up He got no answer and asked again, and then investigating found no one in charge. Thinking, as is usually the case, that the driver was in a hurry, and bad sent the horse alone, he unhitched, and gave the horse good care, and was finally found there, in the best condition, by Mr. Frank, all concerned being very grateful for the good care given the animal, and truly grateful that the horse had not been stolen and driven to parts unknown as feared at first. SAW SOMETHING. Daniel Haley, a south end resident, went through quite an experience on ■ Thursday evening on his way home, j when he saw what he believed to be the form of a man lying in the street. I but it proved to be a far les object. It was about ten p m. and Mr. Haley had reached the home of Will Chronister, corner of Hight street and Mercer avenue, when the obstacle’ appeared. Dan says he went near it and saw it move, whil at the same time he did not have grit enough to make a close examination. He went to the Chronister home, rapped and called for Mr. Chronister to come out. which he did Both then started for the scene to satisfy their curiosity.l this time going near enough to find out for sure, but it failed to reveal Mr Haley's first imagination, and the real object we dare not state, and both repaired to their homes contented. — o TEACHERS' EXAMINATION. Large Class Takes Test in Charge of Professor Opliger. Sixty or more teachers, or prospec tive teachers, took the regular monthly teachers examination Saturday at Central school building, the test being in charge of Prof. L. E Opliger, who returned Thursday from Linn Grove o . The T 'A Morris Company of Bluff•ton, which owns a chain of five and j ten cent stores in various cities of this ' part of the country, acquired the seventh link in their chain, in the pur- - chase of the Baughman five and ten cent store, conducted in this city for I the past eight years by Clarence Baughman While the ownership of the store passed into the Morris com- • pany January 18th, Mr. Baughman is ‘ remaining as manager until the Mor- > ris company can secure a manager to J come and take charge. The Baugh-i mans have been engaged in this business here eight years and have built* up a most profitable trade, the store being conceded one of the best paying ones in the district, and it was only the payment of a good premium that finally capped the inducement to sell. The Morris company now owns stores in the following cities: Bluffton, Decatur, Elwood, Columbia City,. Portland. NewcasUe and Hillsdale.' Mich. Mr. Baughman is undecided as to what he will do, but will probably takk- a much-needed rest for a while, I and may later open another similar I store in another city, where there is ' a good opening, and which with his good experience, will undoubtedly i prove to be as successful as the undertaking here FEATHER CAUSES DEATH. Huntington. Ind., Jan. 27—A small feather drawn into her lungs several months ago while engaged as a milliner. caused an infection which today resulted in the death of Miss Cora Stults. The deceased was a cousin of Morton Stults, associate editor and junior member of the Decatur Herald. | o W ilson Lee. Saturday in the Adams circuit court filed affidavit that he was the surviving partner of the hardware firm of Laman & Lee, testifying to the death of Ms partner, the late Samuel J. Laman, and was appointed by court to settle the firm’s business, > as a surviving partner, xue appeals-: ers were then appointed, upon petition, Mr. Laman naming John Schug, and County Clerk Ferdinand Bleeke naming T* W. Watts. The appraisers immediately qualified according to Jaw, and proceeded at once upon the

,' invoice of the large stock carried by this firm, being assisted In the big undertaking by the regular employees l of the store. The task will take about ' a week, and during this time the store i wil be closed. When the Invoice Is completed Mt. Lee will give the required bond to settle the business according to the law governing partnerships. and the store will be opened again for business.

Homer Faust Friday completed the road in Blue Creek township for which he had the contract. Mr. Faust deserves great credit for the dispatch with which he built this road, pushing it through during the coldest win ter weather, and many compliments for his perseverance are heard. One of his acquaintances stated that Mr. Sorg worked untiringly at his road, and has several little frost-bites on his face to show for his work during the cold. Two more victories were Friday evening added to the list of games won ' for the local high school, when the second team defeated the Peterson high schol team 28 to 7. The home team showed their superiorityover their opponents from the very beginning but at no time did they allow their visitors to obtain such a lead as to givethem much encouragement, I that the game would be theirs. The 'line-up was as follows: Decatur Peterson Neptune Forward Miller Miller StakerForward Goldner FalS Center Adler j Borne Lachot Guard . ■ Longerback- ■ Archbold ner The second game or tne evening between the Fort Wayne high school and . the local high school teajn was another excellent demonstration of the j i clevernes of the locals in the game. I they taking their enemies into camp 4 to 26. Fast playing and god goal throwing for the home team gave them -a good lead and the first half of the game was in favor of them. In the latter half the visitors braced up somewhat and managed to secure a ' number of points, but their showing was too late for any good and the locals too their scalp with' a god lead. The next game sched-i tiled is with Liberty Center at that: place one week from next Friday ev-, ening.
