Hr. J. C. Grandutaff of Preble, usgigted by Dr. D. D. Clark and Dr. J. M Miller of this city thia afternoon operated upon Milton, twelve-year-old gon of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Werllng us Preble, who Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock was kicked In the bowel* by a horse. He suffered severe internal injuries, it wae thought, a result of the injury being the paralyzing of the bowels, and his condition Is deemed very serious indeed. The affair happened while Victor Hoffman, who had driven Into Preble with his team, had left the horses hitched In front of the Grandstaff office while he went in to get some medicine for his mother. A passing engine frightened the horses and the little Werllng boy, who lives near, happening to pass at that lime, was kicked by one of the rearing animals. The ITeebyteriin congregation held its annual meeting Wednesday evening, with D. B. Erwin, moderator, presiding. At this time reports from all the departments of the church were heard. These showed them to be In excellent condition both spiritually and financially. All debts have been cleared from the church and the report shows a balance remaining in the treasury. Reports from the various departments were given by the follow:.g: Trustees, Dr. S. D. Beavers; missionary, Mrs. L. A. Graham; aid, .Mrs. 8. D. Beavers; session, Rev. W. H. Gleiser; Sunday school, Charles Steele and Miss Maggie Hoyer; Westminster Guild, Miss Hammell: Christian Endeavor, Rev. Gleiser; Knights of Kink Arthur, Guy Kidd. At this time the annual election of officers also took place. Dr. Fred Patterson was elected trustee for three years, succeeding Charles Steele, who has closed a successful term.

’ iE WOMAN WR STLER Did ■Jot Appear After Mayor Took a Hand Against Game. Considerable Interest was taken in the announcement of Manager Martin Strode! of the Coliseum Tuesday that he would hold the wrestling match between May Harris, the woman wrestler, and a man Tuesday evening, despite emphatic orders of the mayor and the warning of the ch : ef of police, and not a few people turned out to see whether the course wa.t ollowed up. They were disappointed, lor no mention was made at the wrestling match of the proposed woman wrestler and she did not display her dainty limbs in tights Evidently Strode! took the mayor at his word and cut out th° alleged objectionable part. * Wednesday Mayor Feightner said that he did not know whether there had been any forbidden wrestling match held or not. as he had already issued the order and it was up to the chief of police to see that no matcher of the kind were held. The chief of police, when asked about the matter, stated that there would be no such match held in the city if he could prevent. He did not seem to think much of the coliseum manager's threats to go ahead as planned. Clem Beehtol. with whom the woman wrestler came to town, is apparently a square fellow and stands well with the wrestling fans of the city. They know that his interest In thi ssport propmts him to make his offers of something that will interest all, but be seemingly overlooks the alleged moral side which was pointed out by Mayor Feightner. The coliseum management sees the shekel rolling away because of the order. — Huntington Herald. Mr. Beehtol and wife were formetly employees of the Murray House in this city.

Dr. J. S. Coverdale, who has been spending the winter on his plantation two and one-halt miles from Marten, Ark., and about twelve miles from Memphis, Tenn., writes his wife of the great danger from floods to which that district is subjected at this time. The nearest point which is touched by the Mississippi river, which is now swollen to great size, is eleven miles, but tne levee in that vicinity is in great danger of breaking, in spite of all that is being done to strengthen it, and should this occur, the floods would be sent overland to a great distance, causing great damage to stock, and other property, and great inconvenience. The crisis, it was thought, would occur Wednesday or today, and in anticipation of the breaking of the levee, plantation owners and others are building platforms on which the stock will be driven to bear them above the floods, all other precautions are being taken to offset the danger. ■Many families are moving away from the danger district. It is thought 'bat though the loss to property would je great, there is no danger threatenft'K the human life. Dr. Covertlale’s son, Clark Cover-

dale, and family reside on the plantation also, and they have a large number of tenants also, who are etnplo"ed on the plantation. < albntith P. Rodgers, the famous American aviator, who alone held the honor of completing a transcontinental flight fro’" coast to coast, and otherwise r.nked high as a bird man. met death Wednesday when he fell a distance of several hundred feet in the ocean, his airship capsizing, and he, becoming tangled In the machine, plunged with It into the ovean, dying a half-hour afterwards. Aviator Rodgers will he remembered by Decatur people, they having watched him In his coast-to-coast flight, when he passed southwestward over this city on October 2nd. alighting at Geneva, and from there continued his course by way of Huntington. He was accompanied on his flight by a special train, carrying Mrs. Rodgers, his mother and various members of the "Vin Fiz' company, for whom he was making the flight, and advertising “Vln Fir,” a new soft drink. A tong Beach, California, dispatch gives the following concerning the accident: “Galbraith P. Rodgers, the first man to fly from the Atlantic to the Pacific in an aeroplane, is dead here as the result of a fall into the ocean “Mr. Rodgers was flying over the water when his machine was capsized by a sudden gust of wind. He fell several hundred feet and struck flic water a short distance from a pleasure pier. “Rodgers fell twenty feet and his neck was broken. He was buried in the wreckage of the biplane. “Boats were put out from the beach at cnee and the unconscious man was pulled front the water. He was tak-n ashore, where doctors worked for an hour to revive him. They were unsuccessful, and the world-famous avia- '. r died within half an hour after the Occident occur ed. “A large crowd had assembled on the beach to watch Rodgers in his flight, and hundreds of persons saw him fall. “Rodgers’ death makes 127 aeroplane fatalities since aviation began. He is the twenty-second American aviator to be killed, and the eleventh aviator to perish this year.”

The regular meeting of the Modern Woodmen Wednesday evening was an interesting one. at which time the home talent play which they have been considering for some weeks was decided upon and arrangements for same completed. "The Town Constable," a rural com vdy, in three acts, will be the play, to be staged and under the management of H. Raymond Snedeker. a well known show man, formerly with the Sharpley Stock company, of Missouri.

Robert Shirk, who resides 1 mile east of this place, was surprised Tuesday evening upon finding that he was owner of three fine colts, born by one of his mares, but all have since

Thus another Industry Is added to this already hustling town. Our horseman. J. M. Andrews, han one of the finest stables of breeding hotr.es that can be seen anywhere. On taking them out for exercise they are admired by all who see them. They are beauties and in fine condition, and our farmers will profit by taking a look at them. Ben Brown, real estate agent, who for some time has made his home here, moved to Decatur Wednesday morning, where he will make his future home. W. M. Brandyberry and wife moved on a farm from east of town where they will make their future home. Eph Lobenstine and family moved from Chattanooga. Ohio, to this place where they will be permanently located in the future. Pete Kessler informs us that his blacksmithing trade has increased to such an extent that he finds it impossible to run "a one-man shop,” and therefore has secured the services of Eph Lobenstine, who is an up-to-date artist in the blacksmith line, and who, by the way, has a host of friends here who will be glad to see him back at his'old home again. Call and see him c the old stand. Mr. and airs, nomer Oliver spent Sunday with the formers brother, Chauncey Oliver, and family, at Vera Cruz. They found the latter enjoying life at their new home. BOGUS DOLLARS CIRCULATING. Government Officials Will Take Up Matter in Northern Indiana. Deputy Revenue collector L. P. Sharp of Fort Wayne has been informed that counterflit dollars are being circulated there a id as soon as a number of the bogus coins have been turned in at the federal building, Captain Halls of Indianapolis, United States secret service agent, will come to Fort Wayne in an effort to obtain some evidence that will lead to the -capture of the counterfeiters. One business man took one of the bad dollars in exchange for merchandise a few days ago. and others are constantly turning up. Mr. Sharp believes that the coins gained circulation from the same source that bogus silver dollars were recently distributed in South Bend. It is also rumored that counterfeit dollars are being dis tributed throughout the entire north western portions of Indiana.

Interest in many counties bbsides Adams, centers in the dedication ol the grand new $52,000 Mennonite church at Berne next Sunday, and many will take advantage of the spe< - ial train that will be run from Foi t Wayne Sunday, leaving there at 12:7 5 p. in., and leaving Berne for the return trip at 9 o'clock after the evening service. This great church congregation has SOO members. It is a union of two churches, one organized in 1838, the other in 1852, both uniting in 1->B6 to form this First Mennouite church. At the time of planning the present new church, the Rev. J. "w. Kliewer, now of Newton, Kans, was pastor. The prseent pastor is the Rev. S. F. Sprunger. The new build ing which will be dedicated next Sunday, was begun In March 7909, and is a masterpiece of the arch: ect, Henry W. Myers, of Fort Wayi_e, carried out by tlie contractor, Charles Sanders, or Portland. Tlie money for the church was raised in three weeks by free-will subscriptions, and is a strong proof of the devotion and faithfulness of the congregation. All the organizations of the church are strong. The Sunday school under the superintendep"y of J. F. Lehman, has fiftyseven classes with a total membership of 1,142 and an average attendance of 890. The number enrcllefi tn the school in 897, with 110 in, the home department and 135 on the cradle roll. The temperance society has 370 members, the missionary societv . 370 members. Christian Endeavor bo- ! ciety 400. The fine large choir has j an enrollment of 175 members, of which C. G. Egley is president, E. A. l Luginbill leader and Miss Rosa M. , Lehman, pianist. Those having a more direct interest 1 in the construction of the new church, 1 being the members of the building, committee, are J. P Habegger, Philip Sprunger, Emanuel Sprunger, Eli Baumgartner, Samuel Lehman, D. C. Lehman. Levi Sprunger, Daniel Stucky and Albert Neuenschwander. The official board of the church comprises Rev. S.

The Citizen's Telephone company s headquarters is a hurly-burly scene at present, incident to the activities of the carpenters and others engaged in remodeling the rooms prior to the installation of the new telephone system. The entire suite of rooms will be changed, and while the operators and office employees may now be working tinder difficulties, owing to the noise and the dust and the dirt, from flying plaster and boards, they will have the pleasure of looking forward to headquarters of unexcelled desirability. The partitions have been removed and a large skyliglit built in the very center of the large space giving better, light and ventillation. This large room will be divided into two, the smaller front room to be used as a rest room for the operators. The large middle room with the sky-light will be the local operators’ room and the room at the rear will be given over to the toll operators. All the ■ooms will have h ird wood floors, the woodwork will be painted white and the walls tinted in lovely shades, making the suite harmonious to the eye as well as ideasing in the greater conveniences that will be installed with the remodeling. The work is progressing rapidly.

— o Adams county “.'ill have to wait from two to fourteen years to push its charge of forgery against Harry Organ. one of the smoothest fellows of this class that has .ibbed up against the sharp spines ’ at line the way of the transgressor Organ, who has been in the Cs.»s county jail at Logansport since March, 1911, was uraigned in the Cass circuit court Thursday, where lie pleaded guilty to the charge of having passed a forged check on the City National bank at that place December 17, 1908, and Judge John S. Lair sentenced him to from two to fourteen years in Michigan city prison. Organ is also wanted by the Nebraska State Hankers’ association for so.--gery, and that association quite recently asked Adams county to relinquish Organ to them, should he be released at Logansport, hat they might take him beck to Nebraska and push their charges against him. Prosecutor R. • ' Parrish, however, refused to do so, and was sustained in this decision by Governor Marshall, to whom the plea was also made by the Nebraska force. The sentence against Organ Thursday, however, precludes the possibil ity of anyone getting him for several years at least. Organ’s forgerj worked in this city was one of the smoothest ever recorded. He succeeded in getting a $191.29 check, purported to have been made by G. T. Burke, the grain elevator man, cashed at the Old Adams County bank March 16, 1911, and the bank is the loser by just this much, as the sum was never recovered from Organ Organ had been circulating about in this neighborhood for some three months before he made the attempt to pass the check. He had often dropped into the bank to get money changed, had learned the names oi the force and called them familiarly by name. He was well dressed, good appearing in all ’ ays, and seemed to have the appearance of a minister. In fact, the bank employees called him “the preacher." He stated that he 'ived over the state line. The forging of the check was a masterpiece in its line. It is said that he called at the Burke elevator at times and represented that he was a railroad man. He inquired whether they got their cars all right, inquired as to the bill of lading, etc., and then in some way learned that they kept their office unlocked, and later visited the place, stealing some blank company checks, numbering them with the same kind of a numbering machine. He also took the rubber stamp used in connection with the hand signature, and got some old returned checks, from which to copy the style of Mr. Burk's penmanship. The check he passed at the bank was numbered with the same kind of number, bor n the Burke elevator rubber stamp signature, with the “per" filled in with Mr. Burke’s name in his style of penmanship so perfectly, that Mr. Burke, when showed the check, acknowledged that it must be his, until later developments were brought to light. The written numerals on the cheek had also been copied so faithfully that they’ seemed to be a fac-slmile of Mr. Burke's penmanship. When Organ presented the check he engaged the bank force in talk on the local option question which was then in full discussion, and did so until the last one of the fine large bills was handed over to him. A woman bargain hunter, possess ing all the determination of those of comi® made a grab for one of the fine jardinieres of

the special sale at the Morris five and ten cent store last Saturday and finding lier fingers close about something held on with all her might and main, pulling as she did so to draw the prize within her reach. She finally realized that she had made a mistakt and had gotten hold of the finger ol Mrs. Charles Burr of Monmouth, much to that lady's great pain. Mrs. Burr, who was among the surging crowd had stooped over to tie her shoe string, and while doing so, suddenly lelt her finger seized and held in a vice-like grip, which presently gre' into an even worse torture as of the pulling and stretching of the "rack of old, as the eager woman bargain hunter, thinking that she had good hold of a jardiniere, pulled and pulled in her efforts to gain the prize. While the injury was painful at the time t Mrs. Burr, the pain increased with great intensity and medical examination finally developed the tact tha a bone of the third finger had beet fractured, also the bone leading then from up into the palm of the hand She is obliged to carry the hand in a sling and will be disabled for sotru time Mrs. Burr is complimenting herself that she has retained even thi fractured finger, as it seemed a mini cle that the finger was not entirely severed before the bargain hunter realized her mistake. Christ Gfeller of Kirkland townshii was in the city last Friday and u noon left for Huntington for a sever i days’ visit with relatives. Upon hi. return he will leave for New York City and then set sail for Berne, Switzerland, where he will spend th* remainder of his days. Mr: Gfeller was born and reared in Switzerland, and thirty years ago came to th;: country and settled at Berne, where he purchased a sttip of land, which he has been farming ever since. Ow ing to his advanced age of sixty-fiv, years Mr. Gfellet recently disposed o his farm there, and since than had been contemplating leaving, and returning to his former home, where hhas brothers and sisters living. He i also the possessor of land in the state of Kansas, which he bought some time ago. His trip will require from ten tc fifteen days on the walet, and he pur chased his ticket f iom Berne, Ind., to Berne, Switzerland. He is well known here and in toe southern part of the countyand his many friends regret his leaving. He will go at onto □ his return from Huntington.

FEET ABOVE WATER. Mersmar -I >rse Can Soon be Takeo ,rom Watery Grave. The feet of the poor old horse of William Mersman which slipped down the banks of the swollen St. Mary’s river into the overflowing stream lasi Friday, while unloading rubbish, drag ging the wagon with it, can soon be taken from its watery grave, and thence to its last renting place—the fertilizing plant. For some time, people interested tn „ie unusual and sad death that befell the faithful beast have been watching the receding of the waters, and Thursday noon one of th" horse’s feet became visible. The waters have fallen so slowly, however, that only another foot was visible th’s morning. The horse seems to have fallen only to the second bank of the river, and when the river is at its n ormal denth, would be high and dry above the stream.

REV. VUKER RESIGNS. Rev. Vuker, who for the past liv: years' has been pastor of the Pleasant View Baptist church, two miles north of Wren, preached his farfewell sermon Sunday, and will leave at once for Andover, Ohio, where he has accepted tlie pastorate of another church at an increase in salary jf $l5O annually and a parsonage which also carries five acres of ground, on which Rev. Vuker expects to get back to nature. The congregation would not accept Rev. Vuker’s resignation, but he felt that his work w as finished fit Wren, and he would not remain The finishing of the fine new church just dedicated is a fitting monument to his years of labor. Sunday. Rev Alexander of Louisville seminary will be present and preach his trial sermon, and will be retained if he shows the proper capabilities.—Willshire Herald. The Rev. Vuker was pastor of the new church which was dedicated a few Sundays ago. ACCIDENT AT SALE. Charles Straub narrowly escaped being seriously injured during the horse sale last Friday by falling with a horse which rolled over him. He had taken a horse in charge and was on the street “winding" him. which consists of running the horse up and down until the circulation is increased. He tried to make a turn at the end of a block and in filing so the horse stumbled and fell, throwing Straub from his back and ijx f ront and utiJler him. The horse fell on top and

rolled completely over Straub. Hors< men who witnessed the accident, ran to his assistance and assisted him to tlie office, where he found his Injurie to consist of a badly bruised leg and an arm. from which a large portion ot skin was peeled. He was able to return to his work after a short rest and anticipates no further trouble from the shake-up. TEACHERS TO CHICAGO. Left Thursday to Attend Northern Io diana Teachers' Association.

THE HORSE SALE. The horse sale started off with a i rush this morning at 10 o’clock, when I Auctioneer T.icNabb opened the sale I and the large crowd of farmers and buyers present commenced a spirited bidding, which soon disposed of several of the good horses.
