He lay between the first rail of the aiding and the west rail of the main track of the switch which leads north about, fifty feet north ot the M >ur>’« at reel crowing, and his head was toward the south. His feet were wedge,! near the nog The train! which was northbound was reported j in at 12 59 and getting their signal nt ' a. i>ot ran on north and took the | upper siding It was at this time tiisi I ••as ten over. The entire! train of fifty nine cars and engine ran | over him. The crew detached the ?u- ■ giue and returned to the yard* io do i . . . 'iid at this time he was I found by a brakeman, who ran ahe»d . to opati the switch. He lay unconscious at the time and was carried to j the depot. Here he regained •..on* i i.id -,.<*<■ bi* name and ad-1 dress and talked with the crew.

mutilated. He had a terrible bump on : the crown o* his head, supposedly where on ■ of the boxes of the cars , struck him, several scars on bis back. , a cut across the thigh and several j bruises and cuts on his face. He appears to be a man of about forty or < fifty years old, and his body and clothing was scrupulously clean. u his pockets after the accident j were found a i>int whiskey bottle, , partly full, much of which had been ] spilled over his clothing, and a pen- j knife.

E. Opliger tola forward d the following letter D . Ind, Oct. 19, 1912. State Supt. Chas. A. Greathouse. Indiana; iis, It." Dea" Sir:—in response to your request that I submit to you a brief. statement of the principal aims and achievements of the past two years in the schools of Adams county, together with a statement of the plans lor the accomplishment in the next • ■ > years, I gladly submit the following: Aa effort has been made during the pg., 'wo years in the way of improving the school architecture, the convenience and comfort of all school children, and especially attention has been given to the school grounds, etc.,' by constructing cement walks in front of the school houses and leading to the main outbuildings. Not less than flv- modern district school buildings an I ' • o graded s' hool and high school bv ' ' g- have been constructed in 1 th- '.'usbips within the past two yt i. , and two school buildings are n ■ aider way toward completion nett year. Several of our district sch 'ol buildings recently erected are so ■ instructed that drinking water, lunch room, play room, boys and girls’, toilet are ail found in the basement of: the building and the entire plant heat-. ed with furnace and provided jvith' ' modern sanitary ventilating device*

It has ben our aim to enroll a larger per cent of our young people in our high schools in order that they might secure a high school education The results of this undertaking prove niost gratifying as we have increased the enrollment of the high schools more than fifty-five per cent within the last two years Agriculture has been Introduced into the common schools of this county and all common school graduates re now required to pass a creditable examination in this subject the same | as any other. Series of spelling contests have ! been held uniformly in all the school j districts of the county ant! then terminating in a final contest for county honors. Result a were very satisfaej tory. Now as to the future: An effort will be made in the future to aban- ! don and consolidate our smaller disI trict schools and combine them with i graded schools wherever and whenever It is practicable. Our school architecture and educational equl|> ment will be made more sanitary, ar- ■ tistic and adequate for present day I conditions. We think that agriculture should be I introduced more effectively into the I course and made an integral part of | the child’s education and thus more adequately preparing the average child for his real life and its problems. Along the line of the vocational idea, we hope to introduce gradually du.

ing the next two years manual training and domestic science, more gen-1 erally that it exists in our schools at j present. Paper-cutti.ig, paper-weav-ing, paper-foldVAg, baikst-making, raphia weaving, etc., is now found quite frequently in our schools. In structior in wood working and the use of to.-I- is given to boys and sewing and housework Instruction is given to eirls in a few of our schools, hut I principally in tne graded schools and high schools is this sort cf work being done. The "onnty common school common school commencement will be continued for the encouragement and inspiration of the pupils of the elementary schools and another series of , spelling contests will be inaugurated uniformly tn tne county soon. It shall further be a part of our plan ; during the next two years to require • all pupils in this county to secure at ; least a common school education be-11 fore surrendering themselves to the;, bread and butter problem. In conclusion will say that in addi- i tion it shall be our purpose in the fu- 1 ture to further increase in a practical way the efficiency of not only the ele ; mentary schools but the high schools i as well in Adams county. i Respectfully submitted, L. E. OPLIGER, County Supt.. Adams County. | o I William Cook, vho was arrested Monday moi ning at Decatur, at the instance of the local officers on a charge of horse stealing and released on a SSOO cash bond, was arrainged before Squire Manship Wednesday afternoon, and for a time from the array of legal talent, and the number o. witnesses, it looKea as though , the preliminary hearing would last ti e balance of the week. The case dragged along during the afternoon, and finally after many motions to dismiss for lack of evidence, the case ■ ante to an abrupt close, when the attorney fcr Mr Cook announced that he rested. The squ're immediately decided; I ,

•hat th" weight of the evidence jus j tiffed him in binding the piisionerj over to the grand jury and did so, 1 setting the bond at S4OO, which was promptly furnished and the prisioner i igain released.

That the bodies of those who have I been closely and tenderly associated i dining lie, might not rest in alien ' grounds, French Quinn has caused to ! be removed the remains of his paternal grandparents to the Quinn family lot in Maplewood cemetery, where 1 they were interred side by side with 1 the bodies of his parents. This labor of love has just been completed and Mr. Quinn has the satisfaction of i knowing that the last resting places of those who were near and dear to his ' parents will be tenderly cared for. Markers were placed at the heads of the graves by Mr. Quinn, and their memory will be perpetuated in many other similar ways. His parents. John P. and Uritta Quinn were interred in 1 the new cemetery, this city. The bodies of his paternal grandparents. James and Rachel Quinn, found a resting place in the old cemetery of this city, while those of his maternal grandparent, Jeremia Long and . ’ Letitia J.

The almost continuous success of; the Shamrocks is no doubt due to the | ’ splendid batting averages which they ! have managed to maintain during the. ’ season, and this, coupled with splen-1 did fielding, gave the locals a leverage on high averages which they were not: slow to make use of.
